How do i reconfigure my 2.1 system to a 5.1. Only two speakers play and the s
I have sound blaster li've and it was factory installed with a 2. Harmon cardon system. After going through 3 systems i changed and bought a 5. Altec Lansing but only?two speakers play and the sub is playing also. The sound card seems to accomodate the system so i am thinking i need to reconfigure the speaker output and i have no clue how to do this. Any help would greatly be appreciated!Thanks,Kim
What you could do before I suggest the last thing you may want to do is, if you know someone else that has a working 5. working configuration is to take your speakers over there and try them out or see if you could borrow someone elses speakers to see if they work.
The last thing if all else fails to work would be to wipe out the Windows directory and re-install Windows. There could be something that was installed previously that could be preventing your system from putting out a 5. surround sound. One other thing you could check is to see if in the BIOS if there is any on-board sound that is enabled and then disable the on-board sound to see if that may resolve your issue.

I purchased a song almost two years ago and the song is no longer present in my library, but it is listed on itunes store as purchased.... How do I get this song back?
@caragam, if the songs are no longer in your purchase history it means either they have been hidden or the original items are no longer available for sale on the iTunes Store or you are logged into the store with a different Apple ID.
To see if they have been hidden in iTunes pull down Store > View my AppleID. Enter your password when prompted. In the middle of the screen, click "view hidden purchases." See if the purchased items are here. If they are unhide them and go back to your purchase history and re-download them.
If the purchases are not hidden and you do not have a backup then the songs are gone and there is no way to recover them. This is why we keep backups.
If you used a different Apple ID to purchase the song, log out of the store and log in with the appropriate Apple ID and download the song. Be aware this could trigger a 90 day lock out of the other store account so make sure you really, really want that song. -
I have a problem with the external sound of my iPod, when I take the headphones the music keeps playing and the ipod recognizes still have a headset connected. how do I get external sound out?
- Try insering and removing the headphone plug a dozen times or so.
- Try cleaning out the headphone jack in the iPod.
- Resett he iPod. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restoe to factory defaults/new iPod
If yu still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem, likely a bad headphone jack. Yu can make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to confirm.
If not underwarranty Apple will only exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
A third-party place like the following is less expensive. Here is one. Google for more.

I have a macbook Pro which had Mobileme. I have joined ICloud, but my Calendar does not sync. How do I fix this? I do not see an ICloud Icon on my laptop and the software is updated.
This is the situation with Snow Leopard and existing iCloud accounts:
You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point.
Address Book won't sync: this page has a convoluted hack to make it sync which has been reported as working (and as not working by others). I've not tried it.
There are a couple of alternative syncing services you might like to consider, though they're not particularly cheap:
Soho Organizer can sync Calendars and Contacts with iCloud on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion. A single user licence (multiple machines allowed) is $99.99.
Fruux syncs Calendars, Tasks and Contacts beetween a wide variety of devices (not using the iCloud server) including Snow Leopard and above, Windows Outlook and Thunderbird, Linux Thunderbird, and iOS and Android devices - see their compatibility chart (click the blue 'i' for a caveat about Snow Leopard). It's free for one user, two shares, two devices; above that pricing starts at €4 per month.
(I have no connection with these firms and have not tried Soho Organizer, though both have had good reports and I've found Fruux to work well.) -
I recently bought 13" mbp 2012 and I noticed that I only got 2HRS max and the only thing Im doing is watch movies on VLC and surf the net. How long does you mbp battery last?
That listed 7 hours is with very limited use. Low screen brightness, low keyboard backlight, No WiFi or bluetooth.
Most I have ever gotten from my 15" 2011 model is around 5-6 hours and that was with very light use. Just Web, Chrome, and email, thunderbird, and Wifi. -
How do I authorize more than five accounts? I have an AppleTV2, two iPhones, MacPro, and iPad2. What must I do to include my MacBook?
You can have up to 5 computers authorized with the same iTunes account.
An iPod, iPhone, and iPad don't count against this and neither does an Apple TV. -
How do I change an Apple ID payment method to 'None'? I've tried everything and I found the only solution is to apply all over again with another e-mail address. Any other options?
Buy an iTunes Music Card and redeem it to your account - the "none" option should be available then.

Sophos found this on my mac mini (early 2009) - OSX/FkCodec-A and could not clean it up. I am running Yosemite 10.10 and the path and filename for this Trojan is /Volumes/macvexe/macvexe.app/Contents/MacOS/mac.installer. Could someone please tell me how to get rid of it as Sophos is unable to remove and Trash can remove it.
outdoor,
How did you originally install iWork on the Mac Pro? was it preinstalled? The machine seems old enough that you should have an original install DVD that came with the mac pro.
Amazon has the install DVDs for iWork '09:

To move tables between sheets you can select the table, copy, then paste after activating (by clicking) the destination sheet. If you really mean move, then use the cut command (rather than copy).
To copy... use the menu item "Edit > Copy"

Hi, I'm trying to export data to a spreadsheet from an Agilent 8510c to a laptop(Win XP) using a PCMCIA-GPIB card, Labview 6 and the VI from the NI site. How do I do this? Ideally I'd like the Magnitude and Phase Data, as pairs for each frequency point, but the Real and Imaginary pairs can work just as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
When you say the "VI from the NI site", I'm going to assume that you mean the HP8510C driver. If that's the case, then VI called HP8510C Application Example should be your starting point. It returns two 1D arrays - real raw data and imaginary raw data. These can be combined with a Build Array function and the resulting 2D array can be wired to the Write to Spreadsheet File function. This will create a tab or comma separated file that Excel or any other spreadsheet program can import. The very simplest program would look something like the attached picture. You may need to modify the instrument program to suit your requirements but this should get you started.

How do I make a back up system disk. I wish to run snow leopard and Lion on 1 drive.
I wish to run Snow Leopard and Lion on 1 Hard Drive. I need to back up snow leopard and then install Lion. Any suggestions on how to do this?
Too follow up on this topic - I have recently upgraded to 10.8.2. I have a complete backup HD with SL inclluding some SL-only programs on it. What I want is to make a small size, just SL and my few programs, hard drive with which I can boot when needed. Is it possible to trash all the many programs I have on the SL drive and just keep certain ones? How?
Thanks you for any advice,

(225) 278-0431It is probably not wise to leave your e-mail and phone number on a public forum.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
You purchase one download only.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases -
