How to see your pixels really close up

I was sitting out on my deck with my iPad yesterday when it began to rain very slightly.  A tiny drop of rain fell on my iPad's screen, and soon I noticed that I could see tiny little twinkling colored lights in it.  I put my eye right down close to the drop of water on the screen and WOW, there were all those little rectangular red, green and blue pixels, (relatively) giant-sized!  That was kind of neat.  Of course this should work on any kind of LCD screen.  Enjoy!

  • How long does your battery REALLY last?

    I think my ipod is fit for the graveyard now... it's not being recognized by the computer. I've tried restoring and it'll work for about 5 minutes and then screw up again.
    Anyways thinking I may need to get a new iPod. The only ipod's available with a big capacity are the the iPod videos. Apple's website advertises up to 14 hours of battery life. My friend who just got one says he gets a maximum of 4 hours and this is JUST listening to music.
    Is this true? Cause if it is, I really don't think it is worth the money. My 4G iPod gets about 10 hours, I would hate to think the battery life has gotten worst as they've "upgraded" the iPods.
    Please let me know how much battery life you typically get while listening to music.

    If your friend gets a maximum of 4 hours, he is not JUST listening to music and if so, there is a problem with the battery.
    Copied from About iPod Batteries.
    Maximum Battery Life: iPod can play up to 20 hours, iPod nano can play up to 14 hours and iPod shuffle can play up to 12 hours on a full charge at original capacity. Apple runs a number of tests for battery life using songs encoded in various formats, including MP3, AAC and songs purchased from the iTunes Music Store. The songs are played continuously through a playlist without interruption, with backlight and equalizer off, using factory default settings.
    Doing anything with an iPod besides listening to music continuously without interruption (which causes the hard drive to be accessed more often or constantly), without backlight and the iPod's equalizer off will cause the battery to drain faster.
    Refer your friend to How to accurately determine your iPod battery life for instructions on running an iPod battery test.
    If the test results in 4 hours of battery life and the iPod is still under warranty, he needs to send it in to Apple for a battery replacement.

  • My speaker is broken.... But my microphone works except my speaker but you can hear music out of it but you have to put it really close to your ear.... How do I fix it????

    My speaker is broken.... But my microphone works except my speaker but you can hear music out of it but you have to put it really close to your ear.... How do I fix it????

    You don't - you check your warranty status and have apple replace it for you. make sure you restore the phone as new first (after making a backup, of course) to see if the speaker works then. this isolates the issue to either your hardware or your software. if it's still happening after a restore as new through itunes, it means it's hardware that's the problem and apple will fix it for you

  • How do I open with one click all the windows that I have been minimized? When I right click on the lower bar Firefox icon, I only see the option to close all windows.

    It is used to be that I could right click on the Firefox icon on the toolbar at the bottom of the screen and I would then be given the option to open all windows. Now I only see the option to close all windows. The ability to open all windows is very useful. Have you eliminated this capability? It was a very helpful feature because I often have more than 15 windows minimized at one time. On a regular basis I like to open them all and keep only the ones that I still need. I know that it is possible to see the name of each window that is minimized by moving my cursor over the Firefox icon, but this does not provide enough information. So I have to open each window one at a time to look at it and then decide to close it or keep it - this is a frustrating, time-consuming process. Is there another way to open all the minimized windows at the same time, instead of one at a time?

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    * Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    * Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer.

  • My iPad has to be really really close to the router for it to have internet. How can I make it so I can go around the house with it?

    My iPad has to be really really close to the router for it to have internet. How can I make it so I can go around the house with it? My iPad has been like this for a couple of months, and it has really irritated me. My friend came over and he had to download iTunes for something on the computer. He needed my iPad, he tried it and it wasn't really near the router.

    I'd begin by reviewing the following:

  • How to get rid of: Would You Like To See Your Photos on a Map?

    Every single time I edit a photo in Aperture I get this annoying question: "Would you like to see your photos on a map?" Enable GPS tracking - yes or no. How can I get this pop-up screen permanently off of Aperture? Sometimes this causes Aperture to freeze and I have to force quit my computer.

    I understand that I can do it manually but am not understanding how I should have answered the startup question.
    Just open iPhoto, open the iPhoto preference, then go to the advanced tab. At the bottom of the window is a pull down for "Look Up Place". The start up questions just asked how you want this setting set. You can now use the pull down to change it to "Automatic" instead of Never.
    Another place to check in preference is the tab for "Web". There is a check box for "Include location information for published photos". This tells iPhoto if you want the location information included when you upload photos to Flickr or other places that can read and display map info.

  • In the address bar, how do you get rid of the Amazon button, the "e-pub catalogue" button and change my search button to Google vs Babylon? Where is the button beside the forward arrow that would allow you to see your current history of links?

    On my address bar, there is now a superfluous Amazon button at the right of the forward arrow where there used to be a button that would allow you to see your recent links. It's gone. In addition there is a useless "epub catalog" button and the search button is Babylon instead of Google. How do I go back to my working address bar.

    Right click the Back / Forward buttons to get a list of sites you visited.
    To reinstate Google as your search engine, do the following.
    * In the location bar, type '''about:config '''and hit Enter.
    * In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''
    * Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q=
    * Go to File | Exit
    * Restart Firefox, go to the site you want to set as your homepage.
    * Go to '''Tools '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.
    * Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.
    * Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.
    The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
    '''EDIT''': Remove the AmAzon button by right clicking a blank part of the tab bar and click '''Customize'''. Then drag it into the panel which opens.

  • That line where you can see your bookmarks and stuff is gone..! how do i get it back?

    my laptop is 93.1 % filled up so its working pretty slow.. i was on a website and i tried right clicking (i needed to copy something) and the computer was to slow so it didnt work. (this has happend before). so i tried right clicking a couple of times and before i new it that line where you can see your bookmarks(and other stuff) was gone.! i tried right clicking again to see if i could get it back, but it didnt work. so i tried turning off the computer and it still didnt work. how do i get it back? and if i get it back, will all my bookmarks be gone?

    Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
    Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. <br />
    The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

  • Does Adobe Send allow you to select how many days your files can be downloaded - as with Adobe Send Now? Also, why don't I see the virus scanning message any longer with "Send" versus "Send Now"?

    Does Adobe Send allow you to select how many days your files can be downloaded - as with Adobe Send Now? Also, why don't I see the virus scanning message any longer with "Send" versus "Send Now"?

    We relied upon the "days available for download" to get people to take
    action more quickly. The "virus scanning" progress bar was simply another
    way of knowing this activity was actually taking place - unless this is
    written somewhere in the Adobe Send User Guide.....wherever that is.
