Go to Solution.

From my personal experience (with a Sony Vaio notebook which I still use), I (the end user) should be able to leave my laptop on for as long as I like and should not experience any hardware failure whatsoever. I have had my computers "on" (running with moderate use, idling, put to sleep mode then reawakened... basically it was never shut down or restarted) for weeks and months! Basically I have my full confidence for Sony brands; notebooks, cameras, TVs, what have you.
As for Lenovo, I think I should be able to treat it the same as how I treat my Sony. This is my first Lenovo purchase, which is a G560 as well, so only time will tell what it can handle. I have friends who have mainly Thinkpads and as far as I can tell, those are very durable. But I am fairly certain that engineering teams are of different levels skill and seniority wise when designing these two very different laptops for different end users. Hence, why I have already experienced issues with my G560 right out of the box. But hopefully they will all get resolved (this forum seems like a more helpful place than tech support fortunately or sadly depending on how you see it).

How Long Do I Need to Keep A Package If I Upgrade?

My alma mater's college basketball team is playing a game tomorrow that is only being shown in my area (ironically in Philly, the area where the school is based) on the YES network. To get the YES network would require ugrading 2 levels for FiOS TV at a monthly cost of $35, which is a lot of money. My question is if I upgrade, I assume I can downgrade back to the original package, but how long would I have to keep the new package before I could downgrade?

You can in most circumstances downgrade after 24 hours once the new order/package kicks in.
You can do it online or call them to switch back. I've switched a few times during my contract. Only downfall with being under contract is they make you re-sign a contract each time you change packages and the contract gets renewed from that date.
If you arent under contract and want to remain that way then make sure they dont force you to sign one when upgrading or downgrading.

HT1339 My ipod is stuck at step 9 in this guide. Itunes told me to keep my ipod connected to itunes, and my Ipod shows the Apple logo as it should (though I can´t see any progress bar). Do anybody know how long step 9 takes. I have turned off my firewall

Please Help!

If it happens again and the reset (home + power buttons) doesn't work, just let the battery drain; you'll know when the screen shuts off. Charge it back up and it should be fine. Frankly, I'm surprised this worked for you. Usually I hear people with this problem say that holding both buttons doesn't work, and they have to do the battery drain.
If the issue is incurable next time, you have a one-year warranty from the date of purchase.

How long does Mail save messages?

How long does Mail save messages? What happens to them at the end of that period?

Depends. If you have a POP account and download your messages, then they are on your hard drive until you delete them. However, unless you enable the option to save email messages on the server once downloaded the message are deleted from the server immediately. Your email ISP may retain backups for some period of time, but you would need to ask them about it.
If you have and IMAP account your messages are saved on the server unless you delete them. They will be retained on the server indefinitely.

My iPhone 5 has been dead for weeks.. I just now found it and I plugged it in.. How long should it take for it to turn on?

My iPhone 5 has been dead for weeks.. I just now found it and plugged it in, how long should it take for it to turn on??

I think that the battery is dead because , if you don't charge it for a long time the battery will ruin. You must wait, with the charger plugged, for a long time to turn it on. it could be also a worse problem and you have to replace your battery

How long Q10 LED notification light keep flashing ?

My Q10 LED notification light will begin flashing when a Call , E-mail or any comes in, but after a about 15 minutes it stops flashing. My previous is 9700, its LED keep flashing until you read or checked at the notification. Because this helpfull when we wait for important e-mail or event you can E-mail come in after you leave your phone for a while. I have tried tap the top button for 30 second, I think it not the way and not work for me. So I am wondering, how long is the LED supposed to keep flashing on the Q10? and is this normal ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The LED on all BB devices has always timed out after about 15 minutes or so. I had the 9700 and it timed out for me, as well, so I'm not sure why you say it was any different on the 9700.

HT204379 Choose how long each screen saver slide shows for?

There used to be an option to choose how many seconds each "slide" would show in Screen Saver. I don't see that option in Mountain Lion, only how many minutes until Screen Saver comes on. Is there still any way to do that? My slides change more quickly than I want them to...

Thank you for the advice, but I think you misunderstood what I am trying to do. I know about Home Sharing and have set this up along with many of my photo albums. I can access them when my Apple TV is on.
I am trying to customize the screen saver for the Apple TV. When I go into settings - Screen Saver, I get a list including National Geographic, Flowers, etc. and also My ICloud. I choose My ICloud and it gives me two Options - Photo Streaming (which contains pictures taken in the last 30 days) and a second Option - Activity. I am guessing this would allow me to use specific photos. But it says "This album is empty." I would like to use about 30 - 40 photos as my screen saver but have no idea how to get them into that Activity album.
I created an Activity Album in IPhoto, filled it with the photos I want to use, then tried to share it to ICloud. The color wheel stays on for awhile which I thought was indicating the transfer. But I go back to Apple TV, turn it on, go to Settings - Screen Saver but it still shows Activity is empty.

How long do I need to keep my bootable clone?

I successfully upgraded my OS from Tiger to Snow Leopard almost a year ago. I had created a bootable clone as backup, which is stored on my external hard drive. I am running out of room on my external HD so I am wondering if it is OK to delete the bootable clone of my Tiger OS to make more space. I've run Snow Leopard for almost a year without any problems. I'd appreciate any advice. Thank you!

Any bootable clone needs to be kept until you have a more recent backup that you can rely on. Since it's been so long for the one you're talking about, I sure hope you've got a more recent backup by now...

Great I will do that. One questions - does my Time Machine backup count as a bootable clone? Thanks!
You can't boot a Time Machine clone, but you can easily reconstruct a bootable clone from it if you have a little more time. By inserting your OS X system disc and telling it to restore from Time Machine backup, it will reassemble one drive that is bootable from whichever Time Machine state you choose. I've done it, and it works, but I still maintain both a Time Machine backup and a bootable clone.

HT4059 How long can I keep the free iBook download?

No. Unless you delete them, they will saty there. They are free books and not limited time samples.

IDVD Disk Image - How long does it take?

Hi,
I exported my iMovie to iDVD, added the necessary effects and am now trying to save it as a disk image for ripping out DVDs later. How long does the "Save as Disk Image" process normally take? Mine has been at it for over 2 hours now. It seems to be stuck in the "Process Menus" stage and says "Rendering menu video asset...". Last time it got stuck at this same place , so I cancelled it and rebooted the machine. Now it seems to be stuck again at the same place. Any ideas how long this typically takes?
Thanks.

depending on processor (G4, 5, quad, dualcore, Intel), MHz/GHz, size of RAM, speed of hd … you have to calculate between realtime and 10x length of project.... (1h project=10h rendering)
reading in your specs "macbook": make sure, 10 - 20 GB are free on internal drive to make iDVD working smooth..........

How long should program disks be kept after upgrading?

I am currently using Adobe Creative Suites CS3. I have my PageMaker disks back to version 5.0, and my PageMill disks back to version 5.0, from when I first purchased them. To go from PageMill to GoLive, I needed to keep the PageMill disks for the serial numbers. Now I have all of the disks all the way back - PageMaker, PageMill, GoLive, Dreamweaver, CS, CS2. How long do I need to keep these disks? I'd love to be able to give/throw some of them away. Thanks.

What's the best way to dry an iPhone that was briefly in water? Rice? How long?

iPhone 5 was briefly in water. I turned it off immediately. What is the best way to dry it? It's in a bag of rice right now. If that's good, how long should it be in there before turning it back on?

If you dropped it into water and it was submersed, even for a few seconds:
IMMEDIATELY
Turn it off, remove the sim card.
Put it in a bowl or box of uncooked rice.
Leave it there a few days (3 days is optimal).
Your warranty is voided by exposure to water. There are two sensors in the iPhone which are white, and turn red or pink when touched by water.

How do I transfer/save/keep data,documents,notes etc from icloud to my iphone?

Ok, so here's the deal. In my old iphone I was using an apple id (let's call this one X) for icloud, and my notes, "pages" documents etc were being stored there.
However, I recently bought a new iphone and had to stop using this icloud id (long story, no need to analyze) and create another one (let's call this one Y). So I'm still using apple id X for everything else (itunes, app store etc) but for icloud I use apple id Y.
The problem that occurs is that everything that was stored to icloud when I was using apple id X cannot be transferred neither to my device permanently and be kept there (I would be just fine with that) or transferred to my apple id Y (I actually have no idea how to do this. So I kinda bet my money on the first option).
This is what I tried:
I logged into icloud using my X id and the devide started downloading my notes and pages etc. Then I chose to delete the icloud account (in order to log back in afterwards using my Y id). First it warned me that if I deleted the account I would lose all the data from my phone that had been stored in icloud. But the next message was asking me If I wanted to keep the data. A little paradox here. Anyway, of course I chose to keep the data on the phone. However it didn't work. Being at the stage with "no icloud", all I was left with, were the data I had created and stored on my new iphone. Nothing was kept from icloud X. The next step was to log back into icloud using the Y id and the data that were stored there appeared as one would expect. But of course no sign of the data from the "X account".
So, is it possible for me to somehow transfer or save or keep in my iphone, all the data that is stored in icloud under id X, and then start using my apple id Y for icloud without losing nothing at all???
Is icloud a bit of a one-way path or is it just me?
P.S. I often log into both icloud accounts from my pc to check them and everything is still there and is intact, so fortunately I haven't managed to mess up anything (yet).

Thanks for your reply but maybe it would be helpful if you could elaborate a bit on that or maybe I was not clear enough in my question. What I need to do is NOT stop using icloud. But gather everything that is already stored in my old icloud account (X) and save it in my device (iphone, ipad etc) and then continue using icloud but with my new account (Y).
In a scheme:
"->" = "becomes"
Step 1) data from X -> independent device data, and then the X account is removed from the device while the data stays.
Step 2) account Y is added to the device.
Step 2 continued) now the device has a. "the independent device data" that was drawn from the account X and b. the litte piece of data from Y that I have already created.
Step 3) independent device data -> data in account Y (along with everything that is created from now on, and everything that has been stored there. The little piece mentioned above.) Everything should now be merged in Y. Merged in a "good" way. Not overwritten, not deleted etc. Nothing should be lost (old or new, from the device or from X or from Y).
The last step is kind of optional. If the best I can get is having data associated to Y (future and past) AND "independent device data" that is so independent to the point that it cannot be added to my Y account since icloud recognizes and stores only data that is created after the account's addition to the device, then I can deal with that.
I hope I cleared everything out.
I need my notes and pages documents from my old icloud account to become independent device data and just stick to the device. And then, if possible, be uploaded to my new icloud account.
