  • I set up my new computer using the apple ID i always use, and then later migrated all my files from my old mac book to the same new one, but under a different user (same ID). how do i consolidate the two users on my new mac book?

    Well if you use the Finder Go menu to Computer, a window opens up double click on your boot drive and then on Users folder, open the other user folder and open Public and drop your files into DropBox
    When you do this it will copy them and change the permissions and user assigned to it, so log into the other user and place them into your respective normal folders.
    Once you have all your files over and don't need the old user, use System Preferences > Accounts to delete it if you wish, however it's good two Admin accounts on the machine in case something bad happens in the other. Some people for security reasons on use a Standard account for most uses and a emergency Admin account.
    One can still do most Admin things in Standard user.

  • I used to sync my ipad on my laptop. Then I helped a friend set up his new Ipad on the same laptop. Now my Ipad has gone completely dead. What must I do to wake it up?

    My Ipad has gone dead for over 24 hours now and I can not figure out what went wrong and how to wake it up. Apparently I assisted a friend to set up his new Ipad2 on my laptop, and don't know whether that was the reson for this serious crash?? Please help

    Hold down on the sleep button and the home button at the same time for about 10 seconds or so until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Then let go of the buttons. Ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen.
    See if the iPad will restart by doing this.

  • Trying to set up my new iPad

    I am trying to setup my new iPad using the "restore from iCloud backup " function. My old iPad is updated to the latest available iOS yet the new iPad is not allowing me to choose the latest backup (just done this morning) as is says iOS 8.1.1 is required. Any suggestion?  I have powered both devices off and back on to no avail. Any help will be much appreciateD. Thanks!

    Hi if your other ipad is an old one the backup may not be compatible, so just set up and use the same Apple id & password You should get your Apps & data back but Apps will need updating Do setup over your Wifi. Cheers Brian

  • Getter/setter methods -- how do I use the return values

    I'm just learning Java, and I haven't been to this site since the end of July, I think. I have a question regarding getter and setter methods. I switched to the book Head First Java after a poster here recommended it. I'm only about a hundred pages into the book, so the code I'm submitting here reflects that. It's the beginnings of a program I'd eventually like to complete that will take the entered information of my CD's and alphabetize them according to whatever criteria I (or any user for that matter) choose. I realize that this is just the very beginning, and I don't expect to have the complete program completed any time soon -- it's my long term goal, but I thought I could take what I'm learning in the book and put it to practical use as I go along (or at lest try to).
    Yes I could have this already done it Excel, but where's the fun and challenge in that? :) Here's the code:
    // This program allows the user to enter CD information - Artist name, album title, and year of release -- and then organizes it according the the user's choice according to the user's criteria -- either by artist name, then title, then year of release, or by any other order according to the user's choice.
    //First, the class CDList is created, along with the necessary variables.
    class CDList{
         private String artistName;//only one string for the artist name -- including spaces.
         private String albumTitle;//only one string the title name -- including spaces.
         private int yearOfRelease;
         private String recordLabel;
         public void setArtistName(String artist){
         artistName = artist;
         public void setAlbumTitle(String album){
         albumTitle = album;
         public void setYearOfRelease(int yor){
         yearOfRelease = yor;
         public void setLabel(String label){
         recordLabel = label;
         public String getArtistName(){
         return artistName;
         public String getAlbumTitle(){
         return albumTitle;
         public int getYearOfRelease(){
         return yearOfRelease;
        public String getLabel(){
        return recordLabel;
    void printout () {
           System.out.println ("Artist Name: " + getArtistName());
           System.out.println ("Album Title: " + getAlbumTitle());
           System.out.println ("Year of Release: " + getYearOfRelease());
           System.out.println ("Record Label: " + getLabel());
           System.out.println ();
    import static java.lang.System.out;
    import java.util.Scanner;
    class CDListTestDrive {

              while (x<4) {

But this is something every new programmer goes through, and I will not spoil the fun. You see, in 3 to 6 months when you have learned much more Java, assuming you stick with it, you will look back at this and be like "what the hell was I thinking" and then realize just haw far you have come. So enjoy that moment and don't spoil it now by asking for what could have been better/ more efficient. If it works it works, just be happy it works.

So please keep that in mind as well.First, if you posted this somewhere else you should link to that post, it is good you at least said you did, but doubleposting is considered very rude because what inevitably happens in many cases is the responses are weighed against each other. So you are basically setting anyone up who responds to the post for a trap that could make them look bad when you double post.
    You are setting you getters and setters up right as far as I can tell. Which tells me that I think you grasp that a getter lets another class get the variables data, and a setter lets another class set the data. One thing, be sure to use the full variable name so you should have setRecordLabel() and getRecodLabel() as opposed to setLabel() and getLabel(). Think about what happens if you go back and add a label field to the CDList class, bad things the way you have it currently. Sometimes shortcuts are not your friend.
    And yes, you are using the getters all wrong since you are not saving off what they return, frankly I am suprised it compiles. It works because you don't really need to use the getters where you have them since the CDList Record (should be lowercase R by the way) object already knows the data and uses it in the printout() method. Basically what you are doing in lines like:
    Record[x].getArtistName();is asking for the ArtistName in Record[x] and then getting the name and just dropping it on the floor. You need to store it in something if you want to keep it, like:
    String artistName = Record[x].getArtistName();See how that works?
    Hope this helped, keep up the good learning and good luck.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    I am trying to set up my new iPad. it asks for a WiFi connection.. I have one..then the next page asks for these things:DHCP,BootP,Ststic then IP address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS, Search Domain, Client ID  then HTTP Proxy  I have no idea what any of this means...can someone please help me???

    Thank you sooo much. I was so disappointed...I couldn't wait to get started with the new iPad..then ran into the problem. So simple. You made my day. Thank you for your expertise!!

  • How to set up different virtual LANs (using the E3200)?

    Hi.
    I would like to set up different virtual LANs (using the E3200) so that I can have two different networks that can't access each other.
    The E3200 is connected to a modem for internet access.
    I would like both networks to have access to the internet.
    Does the E3200 alone support creating virtual LANs?
    If not, is there another way I can meet the requirement using the E3200 alone (using something other than virtual LANs)?
    I'm ultimately thinking that I would need at least one other router.
    So for example,
    Router A (E3200) is connected to the modem and setup for DHCP using a LAN IP range 192.168.1.1/24.
    Router B is connected to Router A and setup for DHCP using a LAN IP range 192.168.2.1/24.
    In this way devices connected to Router A should not have access to devices connected to Router B and visa-versa, correct?  For example, Device X connected to Router A cannot ping or browse files on Device Y connected to Router B and visa-versa, correct?
    Would I need to setup anything else on Router B?  For example, do I need to setup DNS settings so that devices connected to Router B can connect to the internet without issue?  Would I need to specify that these virtual LANs are not bridged, and on which router, or both?
    I already know how to set up a static IP, DHCP, LAN IP ranges, and static DNS settings on a router, etc.
    In regards to wireless devices, I am thinking they would follow the same pattern; so wireless devices connected to Router A (E3200) have access to other wired and wireless devices connected to Router A but not to wired or wireless devices connected to Router B and visa-versa.  However, if wireless devices currently don't have access to wired devices also connected to Router A, then that is fine for now.
    Thank you very much!
    -Rami
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The E3200 has no VLAN support according to the manual. There's no way to configure two separate networks with this router alone.
    You will need to add network electronics.
    Ex:
    Managed Switch with VLAN
    Another wireless router with VLAN
    If your modem supplies multiple public or private IP addresses then you could put a switch after the modem and two wireless routers attached to the switch.
