Hi,Comcast,Since I set my internet connection 7 years ago, I have paid rent for a small,old modem for over $800. because had no one told me that I can buy and use my own modem.in this way the Comcast company has taken me lots of money from that rent of that old,small modem which is worth no more than $40 dallars. I thingk this is far too unfair for not explicitely tell me, your long term  customer,this fact at the very early when I started.  this makes me suspect the intention andquality of your service.and my question is: FOR HOW LONG ARE YOU GOING  TO CHARGEME THE RENT FOR THAT SMALL MODEM, FOR ANOTHER 10 YEARS??? AND HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED MY SITUATION AND JUST WATCH ME TO PAY YOU FOREVER FORTHIS? DO YOU YOURSELF HAVE ANY CONSCIENCE?You only have to pay for the same number of years that you have the modem.Bought a modem yet?

  • How many times do you have to pay for Creative Cloud complete plan prepaid if it says an amount of money per year? do you have to pay that every year?

    how many times do you have to pay for a Creative Cloud complete plan prepaid if it says an amount of money per year? do you have to pay that every year?

    Perhaps the unclear part here is that the Cloud is a subscription offering. You never pay for it outright and never actually own it.
    12 months pre-paid simply means paying the full 12 months subscription upfront. The following year, you do the same. And the same every year after that.
    Like any subscription, if you want to keep using the software, you keep paying the monthly (or annual) fee every month (or year), year in, year out.
    When you cancel your subscription, or it expires and you don't renew, then the software stops working.

  • HT201238 How many months do you have to pay for 20gb data

    I Would like to know how long you have to pay for the storage

    It's every month, unless or until you decide to cancel your subscription and revert to the free 5Gb storage.  I've just had to upgrade to the 200Gb option because of the new Photos app, and figure that it's going to cost me £36 a year, which I'm going to have to live with.

  • How many years do you usually use a mac for?

         I was just wondering how long many of you actually use a mac until you buy a new one.

    It depends if and how Apple screws us.
    For instance I had the PowerMac G5 Duallie with a 30" monitor and Steve Jobs announced the Intel processor swtich, two years later then wouldn't provide OS X 10.6 for my machine so I had to sell it while I could. So I lost about 5-7 years futher producive use of the machine.
    Then the 2007 4 year old 15" MacBook Pro I had was working perfectly fine under Snow Leopard, but after I upgraded it to OS X Lion the firmware bricked the machine and Apple would refuse to pay to fix it.
    It was their fault too, because Cupertino HQ was pwned by the 750,000 Mac Flashback botnet and OS X Lion was likely tainted by malware to cause such a massive amount of logicboard replacements that were required at the time.
    It used to be that Apple (under Steve Jobs) would ignore older Mac's and OS X versions for security updates unless they ran the last two OS X operating system versions, but after Flashback they had to go back and fix so many machines they don't dare to that again.
    But Apple has other ways now to force you to upgrade your operating system, especially AppStore as developers will tend ot make programs for the latest OS X version only.
    It wouldn't be too bad to upgrade OS X but for the fact that doing so bricks so much of your third party software in the process, gives bad and unwanted features, and then tends slows one's machine down to a crawl as the newer OS X versions are created with newer hardware in mind, not older.
    So Apple is basically leveraging more software features and iOS devices to force a faster hardware turnover rate so they can make more money. A lot of the features they are adding are not really used all that much a lot of it is just change for the heck of change and putting a new fancy paint job on the Apple hardware.
    "Oh look new OS X, buy a new machine!"
    So you have a choice to either keep up with the rapid Apple hardware cycle or buy a Windows machine that will last a decade or more per operating system version.
    I know people who still have 10 year old XP machines and they are now getting 10 year life Windows 7 machines.
    Apple seems to tie to much features to a new boated OS X version and forcing one to upgrade instead of using OS X and a base and adding new features on top of it if people want it or not. Mac's are laughed out of most corporate enviroments except for a few CEO's , top brass that remain off the networks.
    So my turnover rate with Apple hardware since Steve Jobs return has been anywhere from 2-4 years on average, before that it was a lot longer, I could use a machine for a long time like 5-7 years.
    I'm hoping with this 17" MacBook Pro lovingly taken care of that I can exceed 5 years, but it's not going to happen because Apple is going to drop support for Snow Leopard 10.6 and the newer operating systems are bloated pieces of ugly crap tied to AppStore/AppleID etc. so the erosion to personal privacy is absolute. They just do things and don't care about what users need or want, it's sickening they think they know what's best for everyone and you need to get aboard their way or tak ethe highway. It's so bad now that even Microsoft has gotten into the customer abuse game with Windows 8.
    To reinstall OS X requires a fast Internet connection and I can't trust if the software hasn't been tainted along the way or not. What is wrong with proving USB instlal keys with every new Mac?
    Glossy screens and unable to physically remove the storage for secure destruction.
    I also don't like the threat that Apple is going to forbid installing software from outside sources, they are already doing everything they can to discourage outside sources, calling them malicious etc. We have been installing software from trusted outside sources for decades with no trouble at all.
    They are doing everything possible to drive me and others away as customers and after 20 years I will be finally giving them the boot very shortly.
    They can go on making computers only for children, but the Mac professional/power user is a dying breed.

    Is there a phone number to call Adobe.  I go around an endless loop pressing their contact info tabs?  Maybe someone at this sight can help. I am new to digital photo - I have been a B&W film photographer for many years. I have a problem with a Macbook Air.  It was working fine - I was using LR and a message came on the screen that said something like the memory was dangerously low.  I stopped and tried to delete LR files.  I couldn't do it.  I closed the program and tried reopening and got the message that there is not enough memory available to open LR.  I contacted Apple.  They spent a half hour on the phone with me and eventually told me they didn't know how to help. The tech said that LR had gobbled up all the memory and said I should contact Adobe and ask where and how my photo files are stored and to delete them.  I have several back-ups.  Thanks - Arthur

    This sort of error message only comes up for Lightroom when your hard disk is full. Indeed this has nothing to do with internal memory as that will be intelligently be dealt with. If you have a mac Book Air that is not so surprising as the cheapest versions come with very small hard disks and if you shoot raw with any recent camera, you'll fill up your hard disk very quickly and you can probably only store a few months of pictures if you are a typical photographer. So the bottom line is that you need to create some room on your hard disk. You should move some of your originals to an external hard disk. You can also delete some of your backup copies of your catalog file that Lightroom automatically generates every few days and that quickly gobble up hard disk space. So first figure out how full your hard disk is. To see that, go to the apple menu, hit -> About this Mac -> More info->Storage. You should see your internal hard disk on top and you'll find that it is almost entirely full with photos. Now find your Lightroom catalog file using Finder. It is usually in a folder in the Pictures folder in your home directory. You should see a Lightroom 5 Catalog.lrcat file, a previews file and a folder called backups. Inside the backups folder, you'll find a lot of subfolders. They have names that show the dates the backups were created. If you have backups of your entire hard disk, you can delete these backups when they are older than a few months. I usually only keep the last 4 around. Just drag the folders into the trash can on the dock on the bottom of your screen and empty the trash. This will probably free up enough space that Lightroom will already run again. Now start thinking about where you will want to store older images. If you have a good USB3 or Thunderbolt hard disk that is probably the best option. There is a video here by Adobe that has some instructions on how to do this: Is Your Hard Drive Full? Here’s How to Move Images to Another Drive in Lightroom. « Julieanne Kost's Blog If that doesn't work because you don't have enough hard drive space to run Lightroom yet, here is another set of instructions to move your files using the finder to the other hard disk: How do I move only my photos to another hard drive, leaving the catalog where it is? - The Lightroom Queen. If you follow that, as soon as you confirm all your images are on the new hard disk, you can delete them from your internal one. She is not so clear about that part but if you don't delete the originals that you moved off you don't free up space. You should move the folder structure over to the new hard disk and then reconnect the folders in Lightroom. That should make it refind all your images.
    That said, if you are uncomfortable with the computer in itself, your best bet is to find a local photography club. There is invariably a Lightroom savvy person in there that could help you move your files. That might be your best bet if you are uncomfortable moving these yourself. A general mac savvy person like you would find at an Apple store or so generally will not be able to help you with this except when they are photographers themselves and know Lightroom. You might get lucky with that.

  • How many years can an Ipod Touch last?

    Hello,
    I have a year old 16g 2nd Gen Touch. Was wondering how many years
    an Ipod Touch will last for. I realize you only get a certain amount of
    charge cycles but was hoping that my Touch would last for a few years or more.
    I realize that due to the nature of this device I will not be getting the same
    number of years that my Nintendo DS has (still working fine after being
    almost 5 years old). I also charge my Ipod Touch daily due to the fact that I use
    the wifi and play games. I make sure to turn off the wifi when not using wifi but usually do not get much battery usage on a charge due to using it just for those
    2 things. I did not get the extended warranty. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Like already mentioned, there really isn't a definitive answer to your question. I also have several iPod models (2 2nd gen nanos, 1 1st gen nano, 1 shuffle, 1 30 GB Classic, and a 3rd gen iPod Touch). Since the Touch is only 1 day old I can't say how it will hold up, but all of my iPods are still working, although the 1st gen nano has horrible battery life at this point. All of them are at least 2 years old. Until earlier this year I also had a iPod Mini that was still working and it has been years since they made that model. There are too many factors to consider when it comes to trying to predict the life span of your iPod.

  • How many years can I expect to get out of a MBP?

    Hi All,
    I'm considering an Apple laptop. Being a graphics professional, I think I want to go with the MPB so I can run the Adobe CS4 Suite (et. al.) while away from my desk.
    How many years of useful life should I expect to get (or plan to get) from a laptop? Barring any hardware failures or accidents, can I expect it to reasonably run CS4(+), OS10.5(+), font manager, etc., and connect to the internet etc. for say, 4-5 years? What's reasonable for a laptop's useful life?
    Would I want to purchase the fastest processor(s) and biggest HD in the MBP? I'm thinking the 15-inch 2.66Ghz, 250G 7200rpm HD. Heck, my G5 only has 150G on its HD, and the dual 2Ghz non-Intel chip. Purchased in '04, it seems to still have quite a bit of life to it.
    Thanks in advance for your advice--D
    Or, should I consider something less powerful that can augment my desktop? I just want to be able to get away from the office every once in a while and still get some work done.

    {quote}
    Leopard requires at least a PowerPC G4 processor at 867MHz or faster, meaning G4 towers released prior to 2001 (and select models into 2002) don't meet the spec.
    {quote}
    Ah, I see. Yep, got it in early 2000.
    {quote}
    One question there, though - your G4 desktop was upgradeable, but did you upgrade yours? Add anything to those expansion bays? Put in a larger HDD? If you answer no to those questions, consider the fact that you may not ever upgrade a desktop you purchase in the future.
    {quote}
    Excellent point. I never upgraded the chip or anything, and eventually decided not to update/add to any of the memory (HD or RAM) because I felt I'd get better bang for my buck with a newer/faster machine altogether. I recently resurrected it to hook it up to our new TV to see if we could watch downloaded movies on it, which is what generated that whole conversation about it only being able to handle Tiger, as it's got 10.2 and needs to be updated to interface adequately with the Big Bad Internet World.
    My G5 has become sluggish lately, and although I added another 2G of RAM it doesn't seem to affect it much. Back on topic, I wonder if I get the laptop will I grow tired of it or will it grow too slow in less time than the current desktop...
    As eww so rightly points out in his reply, I guess I have to decide if I want the latest-greatest on my laptop, or can I live with using versions that the computer can handle. And, do I shell it out for the fastest/baddest, or will I get the same longevity (or lack) with the middle of the road machine.
    For my professional software, my strategy has been to upgrade every other time, unless there's some new feature that will make my life absolutely heavenly. It seems like Adobe is slinging out the new versions faster than my budget can handle. Last summer I finally updated to the latest from Office v.X. And the only reason I did that is because my clients have been sending me text files in the latest Win versions of Office (docx and pptx) that I couldn't open. (And it's not good customer service to ask them to save them as txt files and resend.)
    Typical scenario:
    On my G5 I'm still using Tiger because I'm too cheap to buy the upgrade. (Every time I upgrade my OS I lose something--printer drivers, favorite features in my browser, font manager compatibility, whatever, there's always something I else need to upgrade besides the OS, always.)
    Although I'm running Adobe CS3, I have the CS4 suite. CS4 will run on 10.4.11, but the font manager's auto-activation doohickey (which I would have to buy) for CS4's apps only works with OS10.5. So things potentially could get expensive. The only reason I have CS4 is because I bought CS3 a week before CS4 came out. The font manager (Suitcase) is really a lifesaver, and therefore it's pretty necessary. STOP the madness! LOL! (There's another font manager out there that is pretty good and cheaper, so that may be an option.)
    Okay, I'm babbling now. I appreciate your wise words to guide my thinking. Time to get nose to grindstone so I can afford that nifty laptop!
    Thanks--d

  • How many years we can store the data in ODS as well as psa data ?

    Hi guru's
    how many years we can store the data in ODS? can u give particular years ?
    how many days we can store the data in psa ? could u tell me step by step procedure ?
    Thanks
    Reddy prabha

    Hi Prabhakarreddy,
    As many days as you like:
    In the PSA you can keep data as long as you like but you will need more and more disk-space. So its advisable to clean up from time to time.
    Example:
    PSA's from full loads Clean up in a weeks time,
    PSA's from Deltas: Clean up after you are sure data is correct. (e.g. a month or 90 days)
    Remember that you cannot do a reconstruction from dataloads of which you have deleted the PSA. If some thing is wrong you will have to do an Init again!
    In ODS's you must keep data in order to keep your delta loads to cubes in order. Removing data will force you to do a new initial load.
    Sometime companies delete old data form ODS's that is older than a certain period (e.g. more than 3 years old) by running a selective deletion. You will have to do an init again. But loads and activation may run faster and of course you gain on disk space.

    It might help you with a fair understanding of what you need to do.
    Example for linking wage types to symbolic accounts: basic pay wage type u20181000u2019 is linked to symbolic account u20188888u2019 (Salaries & wages)
    Hope this helped!

  • Question: How many photos can you have per album?

    I am a new ipad user and I am curious as to how many photos I can have per album? Thanks in advance.

    We'll have a look at three different issues.
    - If you want to carry over your tags structure from one catalog to a new one created for the new year, use the small dropdown menu in the title bar of the keywords panel. There is an option to copy the tags and categories structure to a text file. There is another option you'll use when you have created the new empty catalog: it will recreate the same structure of categories and keywords.
    - The catalog is hidden by default. I don't know if you can make that folder visible in the Mac, but you can move or copy it to another visible location in your file structure from the finder.  The catalog copy will be found in 'custom' location from the catalog manager. Alternatively, you can shut the Organizer and double click on the catalog.pse10db file to open the organizer with the catalog copy.
    - I have already reported the bug about not being able to delete a big number of files at the same time. It's sort of acknowledged, but without any clear hope of solution. When I upgraded to PSE13 in Windows, I could see that there was an improvement due to the fact that it is now a 64 bits application which can use all of my 8 GB RAM. The problem is that the process uses all the available RAM progressively, and aborts when there is no more. So, we should avoid workflows implying mass deletions.

  • How many years will my PowerBookG4 still work?

    I Have a 2001 PowerBookG4. The battery is dead, but it works with the charger. I'm wondering. How many years will it still work? What can I do to help? It's really old, and I won't lose it =\. Thanks.

    My 2003 PowerBook G4 1Ghz  is still working flawlessly. I treated to to a new battery about a years ago.
    A friend has three circa 1998 PowerBook G3 "Wallstreets" that he uses every day. All three are running Panther 10.3.9 with the help of XPostfacto. I upgraded the hard drives to more modern 5400 rpm drives of 40 and 60G, and maxed the RAM on two to 512MB. They won't die.
    With care, it's likely that you'll run out of software support before the hardware caves. That;s what my Wallstreet friends is discovering.

  • How many years should my ipad last

    How many years?
    Will i have to replace the battery after a few years?

    From http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html :
    A properly maintained iPad battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 1000 full charge and discharge cycles. You may choose to replace your battery when it no longer holds sufficient charge to meet your needs.

  • How many years?

    Hello, I have a Creative Zen 4gb that I've had for about a month and a half now. I had some problems on the second day I owned it but since it's been perfect.
    I'm wondering as to how many years I can get out of the battery. It appears that once the battery is wasted I have to throw away the whole thing. Anyway I really like this player and use it pretty much everyday and every chance I get.
    Is there a way to replace the battery or maybe send my player in to be refurbished? I can't get those answers off the support site at all. As much as I like this player it just bothers me that it may only last a year and then I'd have to buy another. I'd appreciate your answers.

    Re: How many years?" Don't store your player in a hot car. Heat and age are the two big killers of lithium ion battery life. I had (gave to son) a Gateway notebook with the original lith ion battery that still holds a pretty good charge nearly 9 years later! Never let your battery totally die---keep it topped off at least 40% or so. Storing a "dead" lithium ion battery can screw it up and cause it to fail to recharge. You can let it run down all the way if you have to, but charge it right away. The small residual charge will bleed off and can leave you with a really dead battery that might have to be reworked to take a charge again. Your player will cut off before the battery is totally "dead". Don't worry.
    Generally you should still have over 80 percent battery capacity after a year of use (I find I have at least that much). Your battery will lose capacity with use and time, but should last as long as you want to keep your player. A much better model you'll want will come along long before your battery dies, in all likelihood.
