  • Can the Charge with a case fit in the Samsung media dock? or do I have to take the case off?

    can the Charge with a case fit in the Samsung media dock? or do I have to take the case off?
    thanks!

    Dear SandraW,
    Of course, there are may cases out there for the Charge but I would have to say generally, no. I have the desk dock and it looks like the Charge fits very snugly into the dock, and that the seat molded into the dock for the phone is an exact match for the side profile of the Charge.
    I have the shell/holster case for the Charge that is standard VZW accessory, and having the Charge in the shell portion of the case would prevent it from docking.
    I do have a Skin-It skin on the back of the phone, and this does NOT prevent docking.

  • How do I change the desktop Icon for an external hard drive?  I have gone to "Get Info" and tried dragging and dropping  several formats of pictures and the icon changes to the generic image of that file type.

    how can I change the desktop icon for an external hard drive.  Using LaCies and Dimple hard drives.

    One of the things I've found with OS X (at least with Snow Leopard, which is my first excursion into OS X), is that all too often the thumbnail displayed on a file, whether a file created or one downloaded, is a false thumbnail. That is, when you do a Get Info on the file the icon in the upper left is the generic icon for that file type, rather than the thumbnail displayed in Finder. Makes it a bit difficult to copy.
    Apparently Finder uses Preview in the background to generate the displayed thumbnail without actually creating one.
    What I've resorted to doing, particularly with graphic images, is to process them with GraphicConverter - I have its prefs set to automatially add thumbnails and previews. With an individual file this means opening it in GC and doing a Save As. However, a much easier and faster way is when there are two or more such files; I put them in a common folder and drop the folder onto GC. GC then opens them in a catalog view, in the process adding real thumbnails and previews to each automatically. Doesn't take long to do several hundred files that way.

  • On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture.  How can I access the Aperture Library  on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup?  I can only access the application but not the library..

    On imac 10.6.8 using current version of Aperture.  How can I access the Aperture Library  on my external hard drive that I use with time machine for backup?  I can only access the application but not the library..

    Go into Time Machine (the program not the bundle on the extrnal disk) and using Time Machine's browser go to the Folder where the library lives. You could look in the library bundle in Time Machine but that won't really tell you much,
    If you want to make sure it truely has backed up your library you will need to restore it and open the restored library with Aperture.
    If all this still has you confused you need to read up on Time Machine in order to get a feel for how it works, for what it is doing and for how to restore files from it.

  • How do you take the back off to insert sim card, how do you take the back off to insert sim card

    how do i take the back of the cover off to insert sim card?

    With an iPhone you don't need to take the back cover off (attempting to do so may damage the device). Instead look around the edges of the iPhone for the SIM tray. On an iPhone 4 the tray is located on the right hand side of the device, and on all other models it is on the top edge. Simply insert the end of a paperclip into the hole on the SIM tray and push gently.

  • How do I take the music off of my old iPhone and put it onto a library in my laptop if the music is not in my original iTunes library?

    I got a new phone and I'm trying to take the music off of my iPhone 5c, put it into my iTunes default library and then put it onto my new phone. A lot of my music was put onto my phone via mass amounts of CDS and I dont want to put them back on my laptop. I have a Toshiba so that would take way too long. Since I wiped my computer clean awhile back I have nothing in my iTunes library at all. Someone help.

    That is stealing. Your friend has no right/licence to give the songs to you. It violates copyright law.

  • How do i install the osx software onto my new hard drive?

    I have just recently replaced my hard drive due to a fault from the previous one. how do i install my software without a cd? Everything is done by internet cd's just dont exist anymore. What are my options?

    I don't know if this will work or not, but if your machine shipped with Lion, try booting while holding down the Command, Option and R keys. You may be able to format your drive and then reinstall Lion on it.
    It may work - it might not; give it a try.

  • I was replacing my iphone 4 home button and while i was trying to take the ribbon off i pulled too hard and the part where you connect it broke so now i cant put it on, will i be able to get a replacement or not?

    So I opened my whole iPhone 4 up and I was trying to replace the home button as it got worn out so when I tried taking the ribbon off, I pulled a bit too hard and then the whole thing just broke so now I cant even connect the ribbon anymore. So is there a way that I could replace it or not?

    No one here works for or represents Apple, thus no one here can definitively answer your question. Out of warranty replacements require the phone, you're replacing, be in one piece. Generally, when you perform surgery yourself, you void the ability to take advantage of an out of warranty replacement.
    Put everything back together, make an appointment at an Apple store & hope for the best.
    Good luck.

  • How can I get my data off my MacBook Pro hard drive?

    So initially, water was spilled on my MacBook Pro keyboard. I promptly shut it down, turned it upside down, mopped up the water and let it dry out for a day near a heater. The next day it worked fine and continued to do so for about 2 more days until it decided it would no longer start up. Right now it can't make it to the login screen at start up, it just shuts down, the same thing happens in safe mode as well. So, since I haven't backed up my data recently, I was wondering if there was a way I could rescue my data from the hard drive. I did take it in to the Genius Bar, but they couldn't help me since it wouldn't start up in safe mode. Is there a way around this like hooking up an alternate monitor or am I just screwed?

  • How to set multiple home pages, the option is gone (replaced my hard drive and had to reinstall firefox) This version seems to only offer tabs, not pages?

    My old version of Firefox had the option for me to set multiple home pages. My hard drive recently failed and had to be replaced, so I had to install the newest version of Firefox. The only option I see when I go to tools, options, general is to set the one home page. (and maybe tabs) I would like to open several of the same pages every time I open my Firefox. Does anyone know how to get this back, or which version had this feature so I can downgrade to that particular version?
    Also, I was wondering if there is a way to get the bookmarks I had on the old version back. I think they are lost forever, but if anyone knows, I would be thankful. I do still have the old hard drive, but the way it failed was actually when you tried to open any browser, the hard drive would go and blue screen, this is why the old hard drive had to be replaced. Thanks. :)

    So you mean you want to open new windows with the same page when you open Firefox?
    [[How to set the home page#w_set-more-than-one-website-as-your-home-page|Set more than one website as your home page]] should help if you want to open multiple pages when you open Firefox.
    As for recovering your bookmarks, you can try to plug that hard drive into a working computer, and then read [[Recovering important data from an old profile]] to copy your bookmarks from it. However, if it is failing you may not be able to do that.

  • How do I backup the iTunes Library to an external hard drive?

    I have no space on my computer anymore for anything and I need to export and save all my music on an external hard drive (MYbook) is that possible??? Do I really need to just backup everything on OUTDATED CDs or what???!!! That just seems like an insane process and I know it's possible for MAC users...

    *Fast backup for iTunes library (Windows Only)*
    Grab SyncToy 2.1, a free tool from MS. This can be used to copy your entire iTunes library (& other important data folders) onto another hard drive or network share. You can then use SyncToy periodically to synchronise or echo your library to the backup. A preview will show which files need to be updated giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the new or updated files will be copied saving lots of time. And if your media is all organised below the main iTunes folder then you should also be able to open the backup library on any system running the same version of iTunes.

  • How do I know if I need to replace a hard drive

    I have a HP Pavilion Slimline s5212y with Windows 7. My computer shut down with no error messages. Tried rebooting using F10 where I see the HArdware Diagnostics screen and then the computer dies. I don't get to run a repair or any diagnostics. Yet the button I use to start the computer stays blue and the only way to try the restart again is by pulling the plug. What might be the problem and is there any way to recover. I do have an external backup.

  • How can i take the music off my ipod touch/iphone 3gs and put it on my itunes account without deleting the music

    I have a Ipod touch and a Iphone 3gs with music that i want to put on my Iphone 4s. How can i put music from each one onto my itunes without itunes trying to delete it?????

    You can transfer purchases from your iPhone and iPod touch to your computer and it will put all music, apps, books, and other purchases or downloads made in iTunes onto your computer. Or you can sign into the iTunes Store in iTunes on your computer and go to Purchases > Not on This Computer > Download all for each tab across the top.
    If you have any music that was imported from CDs to your Dad's computer, you'll need to import those to your laptop. When you sync your iPhone, it will erase all the music on your iPhone and replace it with the music in your Music Library. If you have all of the music that's on your iPhone on your computer already (by importing CDs and transferring purchases) you won't lose anything.
