HT4796 would you suggest doing this yourself or taking your computer to a store and having them do it?

What is easier - transfering information from your PC yourself or taking your old and new computer into
an apple store and having them do it?

Before going to that trouble, read this knowledge base article on Migration Assistant and see if that anwers your question.

I'm debating between a Macbook Air or a Macbook Pro which one would you suggest?

I'm debating between a Macbook Air (MC965LL/A) or a Macbook Pro (MD313LL/A) which one would you suggest?
I will be using this for college and taking it to class with me. My biggest fear is that I may be too hard on the Air and damage it, but I like that it is lighter and looks cooler. But which one do you believe is more logical and provides the best computer quality overall?

This is an objective comparison,
Meanwhile, we start from the price of their basic models, considering of course that could get discounts as a student in the Education Store. Required about 100 € more to buy an Air with the same screen size of this Pro and already, in some cases, may be enough to make your own choice.
Assuming a score to score, we could say: Pro 1 - 0 Air
Until recently, the beloved laptop for school purposes was the white MacBook.Orphaned "bianchino", now out of the list for some time now Apple, the Mac that is most on the economic front is approaching the Air 11 "(900 € on the edu store). Air 13 "display offers a native that could be called HiRes, identical resolution to that of Pro 15" base:
Air 11 "(16:9) 1366 x 768 = 1,049,088 pixels
Pro 13 "(16:10 format) 1280 x 800 = 1,024,000 pixels
Air 13 "(16:10 format) 1440 x 900 = 1,296,000 pixels
The comparison on the screens is not to be taken seriously. After all, is what we will see during every second of computer work.
And so the challenge back in a tie: Pro 1 - Air 1
For size and weight comparison is merciless. The Pro is a portable slim, well built and, after all, not too heavy. However, this aspect of the Air is unsurpassed. He created a new category of laptops is so small wonder. The weight is also almost halved with 1.3 kg against 2Kg. For those who are always on the go is a godsend for the university and also the difference in the shoulder is remarkable.
We update our score: Pro 1 - Air 2
The battery is offered in both cases with a duration of 7 hours. 2-Air Pro 3. Another aspect that is rather in favor of a tie on the graphics: Both models use the Intel HD Graphics 3000 with 384MB of DDR3 SDRAM condivisa.Pro 3 - Air 4.
In academia, it may not feel quite the need for a Firewire port, but the fact remains that the Air does not have it.
I guess that's the case to score another point: Pro 4 - 5 Air
I scored a little more than necessary to have a complete line of Air, but for the purposes of this comparison we are interested in the value obtained from the Pro 13 'Air base and 13 "base. Both processors are dual core and, as you can see, the little guy gets along very well though with a slower clock. There is also a crucial aspect to consider: these data refer to the computing power but do not take into account the incredible speed-bump-up by SSD. Translated into monetary terms means that if the Pro 13 "is marginally faster when the CPU is under stress (such as video encoding) Air 13" is significantly more responsive in every area. By now you will present the advantages of SSD, as we talk about it constantly, and be assured that we are talking about really obvious differences in the everyday. The advantages obtained clearly outweigh the disadvantage resulting from a delay of a few seconds more in exporting an iMovie or a few seconds to compress a full-bodied zip file (which then increased the write speed scale in part). To assign a score in this area I find then a little 'in difficulty. From the viewpoint of the CPU Pro 13 "is slightly faster but we are sure you can assign an advantage when then every single operation, to start since, requires up to 8 times (the value is clearly approximate) of the time ' Air 11 "? I have no doubt to say that overall performance on the front of the Pro 13 "basis, as configured, is beaten hands down Air 13" base.
I say then: Pro 4 - Air 6 (but wait ... is not over)
Do you know where the above discussion decade? The MacBook Pro is much more expandable: add just € 77 and takes a 60GB OCZ Agility SATA3 that mounts in an instant. At that point, the bill draws on the opposite reactivity with SSD and the difference of the processor, though not so obvious, back to bite. It is also possible to realize different combinations. We have spoken of a disk of only 60GB in effect, but in the Pro can also be used as an adapter to enter the optibay the HDD of 320GB in place of the original SuperDrive. In this way we obtain the speed of the solid disc for the operating system and applications and the increased capacity of a traditional hard drive for archiving. Also, the RAM, which base is 4GB on both, on the Pro can be easily increased to 8GB. To want to do things right we should say that the added cost rises well and lose the initial assumption for which we have assigned a point to Pro for the greater economy.Furthermore, the comparison is based, only the basic models, however, the counter remains a valuable expandability, both now and in the future: if after some time you should decide to improve the performance of your Mac, is with the Aircan only change SSD (mSATA but those are expensive), while the Pro will have more flexibility.
u point for the Pro: Pro 5 - 6 Air
With the 2011 version of the MacBook Air has resumed the backlit keyboard, but still (and will) not have an Ethernet port, Superdrive and the infrared receiver. The absence of the reader / writer is a point against him, this is indisputable
equal footing Pro 6 - Air 6. As Apple moves fast towards a future where this will no longer be necessary (see installation and operating system software via the web) can still be useful today. It must be said that with less than 30 € you take an external drive efficiently (review) but this still requires to carry around another "element". On a personal level each of us will be evaluated differently this absence, there are those who do not tolerate it and who has already got used to (in extreme cases supported by the Remote Disk feature) but it is still a lack of perspective in a single complete computer , at least at present.
For this reason we say: Pro 7 - 6 Air
pull the money (or better scores ) won the pro of a single point.
i hope it can help you ti choose

What would you do with this credit profile? I need your expertise.

Hello MyFico Community,
I am trying to build a decent credit profile. Is there anything I should be doing or not doing to improve my Credit Profile? Currently I have one foot in the Garden-LOL!For the last coupe monthsI have been receiving a lot of mailers, Citi, BoA, US Bank, AARP and a few others, so its sort of tempting.  My Fico Scores are:
760, 755 & 756. These scores are from my Discover, CapOne and Barclay statements. Goals scores are 800 across the board.   Reports:
All reports are clean, 100% on-time payments, nothing negative reporting. Inquiries:
I have 7, 6 and 8 inquiries showing on my reports.AAof Credit: Not sure about this Experian/Credit.com- 6.7 years. Credit Sesame says 1.8 months?   Accounts:The accounts with balances will be paid to $0 by June 26th.Account Name: Credit Limit: Balance:
Amex Everyday $10,000 $286
CapOne Venture $10,000 $1112CapOne QS $5000 $555CapOne Platinum $6800 $0   Aviator $4000 $0J.Crew $4000 $0SportsmanGuide $2500 $0
Discover $2000 $0
Target $200 $0
Wells Fargo $1700 $0  I've begun using QS and Amex (0%APR) as main go-to cards.
Was also thinking i’d put everything I can on cards and PIF each month to take advantage of the 0% and rewards.
Is this a good plan? I'm still learning how to best utilize my portfolio. Are there other cards I should look at acquiring?  I appreciate any input.

What I'd do doesn't really matter. These are not one-size-fits-all matters so each needs to determine his/her own strategy and tactics based on the individual's situation, goals, priorities, preferences, etc. IMO you don't know what to do because you're not clear on these matters. Very True, I am not clear but with the help of the community giving me things to consider I am getting there.
You need to define what you needs/want and then prioritize that list. That will give you a list of critiera that you then use to select cards that suit you. Thanks. Good way to focus my thinking about it.
Rewards is a common criteria and if rewards matter to you then you need to look at your spend and where your money is going to select rewards with the most benefit to you. Since i’m going to be using a main CC, I’d rather have cash rewards first or rewards that are versatile for gift cards. I already have a travel card that works well for me so thats not that important.

AAof Credit: Not sure about this Experian/Credit.com- 6.7 years. Credit Sesame says 1.8 months? Thanks. Was wondering where they figured this. AAoA is just an average like any other average. Add up the ages of the accounts and divide by the number of accounts. Many find it easier to convert into months, calculate and then convert back into years. You can use Excel and its date formulas if you don't want to do this manually. There are also online AAoA calculators. Experian is more likely to be correct. CS is probably providing AAoOA.
RandomSpirit wrote:

You're really not leveraging a 0% offer if you're PIF'ing each month. However, if you're not PIF'ing each month on cards without 0% offers then you're killing rewards.Okay this is confusing, would you mind clarifying? The Amex and QS have 0% interest for well into next year (not sure of exact date, I will look up again) so it would seem that it would not matter if i carry balance or pay in full until the real APR begins next year.
So whats the best way to utilize these as my main cards to get as much cash back(QS) and MR point as possible. Carry balance or pif, or does it not matter in this case for now?
RandomSpirit wrote:
Are there other cards I should look at acquiring?  As with all other request you need to tell us what you need/want so we have something to use to narrow down the options for you.
Now, I am leaning towards low interest being the most important to me, secondly would be cash back.
RandomSpirit wrote:
Was thinking about BoA Cash Rewards offer for 12.99 because of the lower interest rateHere's an example of why a prioritized list of criteria matters. If the lowest possible interest is a priority above all else then you shouldn't be looking at rewards cards as they typically come with higher interest rates. If you want the lowest possible APR you need to fins a barebones card. They're offered with rates as low as 6.x% depending on what you qualify for. This is most important to me
That said, rewards and a low APR aren't mutually exclusive but typically rewards cards will come with a higher APR as you aren't getting something for nothing. While I do try to get my APR's as low as possible you might want to consider why APR is a concern if you're paying in full. In case I ever have to carry a real balance.Not telling you what to do here but consdier such things when prioritizing your list. For example: is a lower APR more important than the biggest rewards for your spend?
RandomSpirit wrote:
Citi Dble Cash and, perhaps
Chase Freedom for sign-up bonus?
Honestly, I was thinking to have a more diversified portfolio. I don;t have any Chase or City cards.So far we have:
• 1 Low APR
• 2-High rewards rate on non-category spend (Double Cash)
• 4-Sign up bonus
• 3-Diversity
Which is most important? Which is least? Where do the rest fall? We can't tell you this. You need to tell us.
Again, I'd recommend looking at your spend and ensuring that your card lineup maxmizes rewards on your spend. The Double Cash is a good option for non category spend but if you haven't found higher rewards for a major spend category that you have then you might want to look into finding something for that category. Thanks for taking the time to offer your suggestions Tekeshi74. If gives me a lot consider.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

WHATS WOULD YOU SUGGEST ME

I installed the update Mavericks operating system and after that I lost iphoto and imovie. Because an application that I had already gone and is being charged in the App Store. this is absurd. I can not pay for a program that already had! What would you suggest me!

This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks. It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
Note 1: every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
Note 2: If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1.

Which cards and card readers would you suggest?

I am very new to JavaCard development and I have just downloaded Java Card Development Kit.
To develop application and test it I think the development kit is enough. But when application is ready to be deployed which card and what card readers would you suggests that work reliable. Where to find them?
Thank you very much!

I suggest Sdi010 or scr331-DI from SCMmicro.com.

I was commenting on yawmark's suggested improvement
over the OP's solution. Are your comments directed to
yawmarks post or my reply to that post? Who is that OP person? yawmark was the first answered original incorrect code.
It's the splitting up of a logical expression into
multiple if statements that may interfere with
optimization. It's very unlikely. It's not how compiler optimization work. It doesn't rely on high-level constructions. If meaning of two constructions is the same (control flow graph), compiler will treat them equivalently.
AND, as you and I both have noted, it's
not even necessary because of how && works. AND from
a structural programming view it's not preferable
because it increases the structural complexity of the
method (more exit points). So again I find what I
suggested in #8 to be the objectively superiour code
all aspects considered. (quite a strong conclussion
isn't it -:)I personally prefere sequential ifs as this construction checks for condition "independently", that is sequentialness is more evident. Minimizing number of returns isn't good. For example,void f(){
if(smth){
    <1 line of code>
} else {
    if(something_else){
      <1 line of code>
    } else {
      <rest of the code>
      <rest of the code>
      <rest of the code>
}is more difficult to read thenvoid f(){
if(smth){
    <1 line of code>
    return;
if(something_else){
    <1 line of code>
    return;
<rest of the code>
<rest of the code>
<rest of the code>
}

Which router would you suggest?

Which router would you suggest only for connecting 2 ISPs?
thanx

This depends on how much traffic you have between, and what all interfaces you want to connect on .
like ATM or HSSI. For a medium end you can go for 3725 or 7200VXR is also a better choice that has CEF enabled .

My desktop has no sound and audio ???? What do you suggest is wrong, the lines to the computer tower

Operating with Windows 7, Computer is an Acer model. I have no sound or audio, all lines are hooked up in the back of the computer correctly. What would you suggest is wrong and what to do to get the sound back on my computer ?????
Thank You Cindy {Personal Information Removed}

Typically desktop PC's do not have speakers unless they are external. So unless there were speakers in the box, then you have correct assumption. I had another with the same question and unless the monitor has speakers, then external speakers are required.
On the other question, it would seem that installing Windows 7 may not void the warrenty, as HP does not support the OS, other than providing it.

Hello Susan.
It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there.

HT4796 would you suggest doing this yourself or taking your computer to a store and having them do it?
