Good catch! Yes there was a time when many companies and other organizations did that sort of thing. Now not so much.
Intel still sponsors clubs see http://www.computerclubhouse.org.
You might also check around, there might be after school programs, sometimes the YMCA or Boys & Girls Clubs have programs.
good luck

  • Why are the application in the apple store are not compatible with the iPod touch 4g? Apple please realize there are some of us who still have the iPod touch 4g!

    Why are the application in the apple store are not compatible with the iPod touch 4g? Apple please realize there are some of us who still have the iPod touch 4g! I just want to know.

    Once I find the game i will truly screenshot that it states "not compatible for these models". I just find it RIDICULOUS that my iPod touch is in good condition and some of the applications that I want download sometimes are not compatible with my iPod touch 4g. I am not going to buy an ipod 5th generation if my 4g is still going strong since the year of 2010.

  • Are there any billing benefits to have a family shared line?

    Are there any billing benefits to have a family shared line?  Currently I have a family shared 700 minutes w/ 500 texts. Would it be just as cheap to have to separate lines? I am asking this because I have my bro on my plan and am asking if it is saving me any money . Also why do I have to keep dialing *228 to decent internet connection on my phone. so any time I go anywhere i need to dial x228 to get 3g?

    yes he is splitting it in half.
    I only get 15% Access Discount & 20% Feature Discount on my line. Which comes out to -$15
    I do not get any employee discount on the second line.
    so $60-9+29-6=74 for one line not sure about the second line pricing...
    Hi jackscagnetti, and thanks to our forum members for the great input on this monthly pricing question.
    Using the numbers included on your post it seems like you have a 69.99 calling plan and a $29.99 data plan. Please see break down of fees below and difference between family share plan and individual calling plans.
    Current family share plan:
    Primary line
    $60.00 - Calling plan
    $29.99 - Data feature
    $89.99 - Subtotal
    $09.00 - Credit 15% calling plan
    $06.00 - Credit 20% data feature
    $74.99 - Total monthly fee for primary line (tax and surcharge not included)
    Secondary line
    $09.99 - Calling plan
    $29.99 - Data feature (if Smartphone on this line)
    $39.98 - Total monthly fee for secondary line (tax and surcharge not included)
    $114.97 - Total for 2 lines.
    2 individual lines with a $39.99 calling plan as used on previous scenarios in this forum/thread.
    $39.99 - Calling plan
    $29.99 - Data feature
    $69.98 - Subtotal
    $06.00 - Credit 15% calling plan
    $06.00 - Credit 20% data feature
    $57.98 - Total monthly fee for primary line (tax and surcharge not included).
    $115.96 - Total if system allows employee discount on both lines (tax and surcharge not included).
    $127.96 - Total if system allows discount on one line only (tax and surcharge not included). In both scenarios your monthly fees are lower with a Family Share calling plan.
    Please keep in mind that we can only review your employee discount specifics if we access your account information. Feel free to contact us at 1-800-922-0204 at your convenience for further assistance with any billing issues and be prepared to provide account verification information.

  • Are there any PC cards which have sample and hold capability

    Are there any PC A/D cards which have sample and hold capabilities up to a 10 Khz sampling rate which we are interested in for modal testing of engine structures. Also if this type of card is available what would be the maximum input channel count of this card. We would be interested in the highest count available up to 64 channels.
    A second question: We currently have a 64 channel PCI 6071 capable of 1.25 MS/s throughput. If we are using all 64 channels what would be the interchannel delay between the first and last recorded channel and at what frequency would we have to be sampling to even be able to see the affect of the interchannel delay of this specific card.
    This issue has been debated wi
    th in our group and your insight would be appreciated as you are the experts in this field.

    Dear Sir,
    Thank you for using NI Developer Zone.
    National Instruments has a product line designed specifically for acquisition of dynamic signals, it is called DSA - Dynamic Signal Analyzers. In according to the description of your application the card that best fits your needs is the NI-4472 that is available in PCI and PXI format. This card is able to acquire 8 channels simultaneously, as opposed to the regular DAQ cards that have a single A/D converter and a multiplexer. The NI-4472 has 8 Delta-Sigma A/D converters one per channel, what results in a better performance than having a single A/D converter in combination with a sample and hold and a multiplexer. To Acquire 64 channels you would have to have 8 boards and synchronize all 64 channels. The Synchronization process is very simple and with a couple of software calls we can synchronize as many as 112 channels for simultaneous acquisition at 102.4K samples per second per channel.
    Regarding your second question, the PCI-6071 will sample between channels in a single scan at the maximum sample rate of the board (1.25 MS/s) but the
    scan rate, i.e. the rate in which the same channel is sampled is defined by the user. Being that said, we can conclude that the interchannel delay will be the inverse of the 1.25 MS/s clock, or 0.8 micro seconds.
    For a 1 KHz sine waveform, this represent a phase delay of 0.288 degrees between consecutive channels. For a channel list of 64 channels each one having the same 1 kHz sine waveform, the phase delay between the first and the last waveform will be 18.432 degrees.
    I really recommend the NI-4472 as a very good solution for your application, besides that the combination of the NI-4472 with LabVIEW and the sound and vibration toolset will give you a tremendous tool to solve not only your immediate need but also provide you a system that will be easily modified and adapted for future needs.
    If you need more info, feel free to contact me and I can give you more details about this product.
    Call 1 800 IEEE488 and ask to speak with the Computer Based Instruments (CBI) support team.
    Best Regards.

  • Are there any downloadable games still out there for 2nd Generation iPod?

    I am searching for games that will download on an older iPod. Purchased two 2nd generation iPods on Ebay and am having trouble getting any games that are compatabile. Are there any still out there. Purchased these for 2 grandchildren. Help. Not only are there games, how do I download them. Can I do it from my computer? Can't find any in the app store on the iPod itself or have I just not looked hard enough.

    They are there, but it's not easy to find these days.  At least your iPod touch can run iOS 4.2.  My old original iPhone can only run up to iPhone OS 3.1.3...
    I used to be able to go into an app category in iTunes (on the computer), and sort the listing by release date, newest to oldest.  Then, I could go to the end of the list, and the older apps/games would be the ones that worked with the older hardware and iOS versions.  However, this method does not seem to work well anymore.  The lists do not appear to go back far enough, so the apps at the end of the list are still fairly new.
    I found an app recently.  It's called VintApps.  You can go to the App Store using iTunes on the computer and search for it.  It costs 99 cents.  I can set it to "filter" based on iOS limitation (and other factors).  I can then browse in app categories (in the app), and it shows me lists based on the criteria.  Selecting an app from the list provides its description.  This lets me find apps that work with 3.1.3 (or 4.2 in your case)
    Because older devices are slower (with a small screen), what I do is use VintApps on my iPhone to find something that looks interesting.  Then, I use iTunes on my Mac to find that app in the App Store.  If it looks good, I get it there (using my computer's iTunes) and sync it to my iPhone.

  • Are there any Mail upgrades still around that don't require Tiger?

    My subject is my question, really. I just need to upgrade my Mail so I can keep sending emails through Earthlink. I have Mail (apparently) 1.3.9. If anybody knows anything, would you let me know, too? Thank you.
    powermac G5   Mac OS X (10.3.5)   use Mail 1.3.9

    Are you running 10.3.5 and not 10.3.9?
    I believe the 10.3 updates between 10.3.5 to 10.3.9 includes an update or updates to the Mail.app but whichever Mail.app version is included with 10.3.9 is the most updated version for 10.3.
    Are you having a problem sending messages with your Earthlink account?

  • Are there any new All-in-one printers for sale that use the CLI-221 cartridges?

    We have a MX870 Printer that needs to be replaced but new cartridges were just purchased from Canon.  Are there any new All-in-one printers for sale that use the CLI-221 cartridges?
    Thanks,

    The MX922 (known as the MX926 in Australia) is supported by 10.10 and Windows 7. Whatever site you were looking at may not have updated their details. Here is a link from the Canon Australia web site showing the drivers and applications for this model for 10.10.

  • Are there any other hidden editing options?

    Thanks to this forum, I've found the redeye tool in iPhoto to be quite useful, but this wasn't the case before I found out about the Caps-Ctrl-9 trick that was posted in this forum.
    Are there any other tricks that anyone has discovered in iPhoto that isn't mentioned in the help list?
    And any speculation as to why these tools aren't mentioned in the help file? I mean, at first I was ready to give up on iPhoto because of the weak redeye. Why wouldn't they show us how to do this?
    Thanks again to everyone here for contributing and making this a great place to learn about my Mac!
    Paul
    15" MacBook Pro 2.33GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Paul:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There is a hidden feature for changing the Redeye and Retouch tool size:
    How to Change the Size of the Retouch and Red-Eye Removal Tool
    Type Caps lockControl9
    Undo caps lock
    Click on the Retouch or Red-Eye Removal tool
    The tab key will toggle between cursor types, a cross or a circle
    The "[" and "]" keys decrease or increase the size accordingly.
    NOTE: Using the "{" "}" keys will will change the value next to the circle and that represents the degree of change or intensity that the tool imparts on each pass.
    Also check out the tip at the end of my signature for backing up the library database file on a frequent basis.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application, iPhoto dB file backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Are there any new 17 " MBPs with matte display out which run properly?

    Hallo,
    I am about to buy one 17 MBP with matte display. But now I ve read all these posts and
    I hesitate to order one. I don't want to have all the trouble to send it back and then wait
    again. So, are there any guys who can not report these graphic issues?
    Yours
    Matthias

    CD = Core Duo, the 1st generation of 17" MBP from way back in 2006. It was flawless when I got it. It's still running perfectly 3 years later. Only issue was a bad battery, and that was a known manufacturing problem at Sony that affected Macs as well as PC laptops. Apple extended the warranty to cover the issue, and replaced mine for free ~3 months after my one-year warranty expired. Two colleagues have the new 17" unibody MBP, one with glossy and one with matte, both are flawless.

  • I want to run Lexware on my imac and was told I need bootcamp / parallels for this. Are there any downsides to this?

    Hello, I need to run bookkeepting/ bill writing/ store management software on my imac and would like to use Lexware's German product (equivalent of Quickbooks), which can directly link to the German tax autorities. I was told I can do this from my imac via Bootcamp (they dont do a mac version).
    Is this advisable and are there any downsides? Is it simple enough? Do I need to be online to use the Lexware software (I live in the deepest countryside with a wobbly connection!).
    Thanks a lot for any hints or advice.

    There shouldn't be any issues as Boot Camp allows installation of Windows which runs natively just as if you were on a PC. The only downside is that you have to buy a Windows full install disk. Be sure it is the right version for your software.

  • HT202157 When I try to update my Apple TV software, I get an error message "update was unsuccessful try again later". I've tried downloading the update for two weeks. Are there any recommendations?

    When I try to update my Apple TV software, I get an error message "update was unsuccessful try again later". I've tried downloading the update for two weeks. Are there any recommendations?

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
    (You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)
