How can I be certain that it is Verizon that I am connected to?

And how can I find out if anyone is interfering or whatever with my networking, websites, services, communications, etc for some reason?

From Cable to DSL, just leave your computer as-is. In almost any case you simply connect your computer to the modem. At most you will need to run a setup wizard to get your DSL connection set up with an account, but that can be started via a web browser.
As for verifying that you are actually going through Verizon, the best and easiest way is to visit a site such as Speedtest.net which has a user-friendly display of your IP address and who the ISP is near the bottom left of the speed testing app.

How can I extract certain pages from my document and save as another file?

You would need Adobe Acrobat to do that, not Adobe Reader.

How can I restrict certain apps to cellular data only?

Product Name: iPhone 6
Product iOS: 8.3
Background: I listen to Pandora at work through my iPhone 6. My work has pandora traffic blocked through their WiFi network. I want to keep my iPhone connected to the work WiFi because 1) I don't want to turn on and off my WiFi on my phone 2) I want to my email and other apps to use WiFi since they are not blocked.
Current Workarounds (not a solutions):
1) Turn off and on WiFi on iPhone 6- This is a pain/hassle and I forget to turn the WiFi back on.
2) Switching to a different streaming music providers that aren't blocked by work WiFi- I pay for Pandora One and I like this service the best. I really don't want to switch.
3) Download music to iPhone memory- I pay for Pandora One and I'd like to use it.
4) Jailbreak- Not sure if this a solution but I'd rather not jailbreak my device.
Question: How can I restrict certain apps (Pandora) to use cellular data only?

The network settings in iOS are global and do not support assigning specific networks to specific apps. You cannot do what you describe.

In Lion, running on an I MAC, (late 2006), how can I stop certain programs (iTunes, Word) from automatically starting up when I start the computer?

Any application that is open when you shut down will re-open when you restart unless you deselect this when shutting down/restarting:
Also check System Preferences>Users & Groups>Login items tab and make sure there's nothing listed there that you don't want launched.

After I have converted PDF file to Word how can I select certain pages to save them as a new document? Thank you

After I have converted PDF file to Word how can I select certain pages to save them as a new document? Thank you

You've said you have a Word file and want to use some pages in the file to create a new document.
Use Word to establish a new Word file that has the desired pages for the original Word file.
You now have a "new document" of the desired pages.
With Acrobat Standard or Pro installed you can create a "new document" PDF.
If you do not have Acrobat Standard or Pro or a subscription to an online Adobe service that can create PDF from MS Word you can use the Microsoft process to create PDF that comes with MS Word.
Be well...

To check your model go to About This Mac (by clicking on the Apple icon, top left) and then select more info. If you wish to use mirroring you will need one from 2011 or later running OSX 10.8 or later. The alternative would be to use 3rd party software like Airparrot.

I redirected iTunes to an external drive and moved my iTunes library and folder, but my hard drive is still low on space. How can I be sure that my music is all on the external HD ONLY, especially with the new iCloud technology?

I redirected iTunes to an external drive and moved my iTunes library and folder, but my hard drive is still low on space. How can I be sure that my music is all on the external HD ONLY, especially with the new iCloud technology? It doesn't look like I created any more space by doing this, AND I totally lost all my iTunes playlists. I'm not sure if because I added old library materials manually if this messed up my playlists, or if the new location is just not reading my moved library. In any case, I followed step by step instructions and found a few holes and thought I'd just "figure it out" but I guess I'm not as smart as I thought since I'm still scratching my head many hours later.
Thanks for any support ;-)

Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder.
If this is to a new computer and you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

How can I make sure that itunes saved contacts and photos FROM my iPhone on last back up ?, i just bought this phone and store transfer contacts from old non-smart phone and dont want to loose them !

Look in whatever software on your computer handles your contacts and photos. Neither will be part of the backup file. This may be of help:

How can I display images that are not included in any collection?

How can I display images that are not included in any collection (some filter or smart collection)? A smart collection with parameters "Collection - contains - empty field" does not work. Lightroom 5.

Thank you! Good idea! I ordered letters of the alphabet (space separated), and it works.

I have 0,3€ credits. How can remove them so that I can change to the app store of another country?

I have 0,3€ credits. How can remove them so that I can change to the app store of another country? I need to change to the Chinese app store as the apps I am looking for can be only found there. Thanks for all answer in advance!

Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff to zero your account balance. Note that if you're not in China, you won't be able to use the Chinese App Store.

I just recently purchased a mini iPad for my child. It was set up in the Apple store with my Apple id. I now want to create an Apple id for my child and switch it over, how can I go about that. I already downloaded some of the games from my account.

With a new account, you'll need to rebuy the games.
Each user should have their own icloud account, otherwise they end up getting the same emails, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc. - usually not what you want. But if all have been sharing the same itunes ID, keep it that way, you can have different IDs for itunes and icloud.
If you already have another icloud account, and want to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account. This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud. Then enter the account ID that you want to use.
To create a new icloud account, go to

Get info then check permissions then add your curent user name (it was probably different on old Mac) and give your username full read/write permissions.

How can I find photos that are not assigned to any collection?

Hi !
I'm using LR 5.7.1 on a Mac.
When I've retouched raw pictures with PS CC (and do not need the PSD file any longer) I export the PSD (that is in my catalog) as JPG and let it add to my catalog automatically. After that I delete the PSD file. That works fine.
But .... the new JPG file is not assigned to any collection. That's no problem unless I forget to do it manually after that export (and import).
That brings me to my question.
How can I find photos that are not assigned to any collection?
I tried it with a smart collection after I found nothing suitable in library filter. The search criteria I tried are Source -> Collection with any of the conditions. One with an empty value field, then with just a space and so on.
Has anybody a good hint for me?
Thomas

You can also add numbers if you have collections that don't use alphabet characters.

How can I convince iTunes that this is the same machine to avoid installing all my iPod Touch Apps?

I've had to rebuild my hard drive and reinstall all the software. What a pain.Now iTunes wants to tell me that I am re-syncing from a new machine and wants to reinstall all of my Apps. It is the same machine, and all the Apps show up in iTunes that are on my iPod Touch. I do not want to have to reinstall all of the iPod Apps and try to restore all of their data. How can I convince iTunes that this is NOT a different machine?

If you are using iTunes version 7 or later, then you can transfer purchased iTunes store music from the iPod to an authorized computer by using the "file/transfer purchases from iPod" menu. Note that the maximum of 5 authorized computers applies here.
For all other non purchased music (your own CDs etc) try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
Enable your iPod for disk use.
See: iPod Disk Use.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
Another free program is Pod Player.
