Is it really possible to go from $0 to $200,000 in credit in 2 years?

I was reading a post on another forum where a member said that they went from $0 to $200k in credit in just two years. This was in the form of credit cards only; no loans. It was also implied that they started from scratch with no prior credit at all. They briefly detailed how they did it, which seems to have involved opening a lot of secured cards in the beginning. So, is it really feasible to obtain that much credit in just two years starting from scratch?

I would say yes My AAoA is a little over 2 years right now. but I have data from further. I believe if I was reporting the income I have now and was aggressive then it would have been possible. I'm currently stress testing how FICO reporting works, and I realize I have been very skittish in the past. Like all the guides so "don't do too many apps" but what is too many? I thought having 1, 2 or 3 were the limit, before I noticed a 8 point drop in my credit score. OMG NOT 8 POINTS, I'LL NEVER REACH 763 WHICH I ANECDOTALLY HEARD WAS GOOD when really the low 700s and high 600s are just as fine in the age of easy credit. You can always renegotiate lower interest rates on cards when your credit # improves. I was at around $30k credit across all my cards for a while, before I started really stretching my desired CLI #s. Then one time I told Citibank to increase my credit limit to $60,000 and it was immediate. I was totally expecting a second lower offer, in the mail, 10 business days later. Sometimes I opened a new card, and got an instant $30,000 . Even with a brand new institution I had no relationship with.Congrats on your success!

Is it really possible to upgrade from a Treo 650 to a Treo 750?

I am not a very happy customer at the moment, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I upgraded from my old Palm Tungsten to a Zire, then to a Cingular Treo 650, combining three devices into one. I have since discovered that the Treo 650 seems to have a faulty transmission mode, as I can rarely be clearly understood by whomever I call. Am on the second (or third, I have lost track) and continue to have the same problem. I get five bars of reception but can't be understood on the other end. A bit of a problem when one is trying to call 911. Am constantly told I am "breaking up". The repair shop says it "Can't duplicate the problem". OK, then I do not want to give up all the info I have stored in the fool thing, and the 750 seems to have a different system, so I thought I would try that. All the stuff I could find seemed to indicate it wouldn't be a problem to upgrade. When the 750 arrived, I tried to install the software from the CD on my Windows XP computer. No dice. Setup encounters an error and closes. Can't even look at the files, because setup tries to run any time I access the CD. From any drive. Gave it to my girlfiend to check on her computer, and the CD seemed to run fine. Other CDs work just fine on my computer. Must be some kind of conflict, but what? Tried calling the AT&T number that suggested they could help with setup, and was first connected to the business center, they routed me to the laptop center, who routed me to the network center, who said they would have to bring in the Palm customer service and connected me to a Mac guy that dumped me back to a menu that took me to someone for whom English is a second language with whom I was trying to communicate over a very poor satellite connection. They made no sense anyway. telling me first that I couldn't have two desktops running (wrong, my girlfriend has my old Zire and the CD worked fine) and then insisting that the serial number on my device had to start with a P, when it clearly does not have any alpha characters in it. Gave up on that route of assistance. Managed to get the new ActiveSync installed from my girlfriends computer over the network. Great. Now let's get my 650 synced with Outlook (which I have not used at home) and see if we can move on. Nope. First I have to update Outlook 2000 from the old Win98 to my current XP. Find the old CD, and square that away. OK, now sync to Outlook. Nope. The sync program gives an error, saying it will only sync with Outlook 98, 2000, and XP(2002). Good grief. I have Outlook 2000, and the software apparently does not recognize it. If the Palm doesn't work, there is no reason for me to keep this phone, and I am very close to returning it and abandoning the Palm entirely when I upgrade to something that works, although I dread re-entering all that information.

This question was solved.
View Solution.

Thanks for the feedback. Today I installed an Enterprise version of Office 2007 I purchased a while back, but had not yet installed. Microsoft presented a few challenges, but they were quickly resolved. I then downloaded the appropriate conduit from Palm, and synced the 650 with the handheld overwriting the computer. Then used Active Destop to sync the 750. Satisfied I had moved as much info as possible, I called AT&T and had them move the phone number to the new Treo.
Bonus! When the guy at AT&T called me on the new phone to verify it, he said it sounded better than my landline.
Sorry for the streaming paragraph. When it is late I tend to write like I think.

HT4623 is it really possible to downgrade from ios7 to ios6?

my ipad2 is a paperweight since upgrading to ios7. it is worse than dial-up in 2002. i loved this device. please someone show me how to bring back my ver 6.........................................so many hours of my life that i will never get back.

mine is only 16gb, but it ran everything i need @ lightning speed until the upgrade. Now i can't watch any youtube that doesn't stop at least every 5 sec. I can access my banking balance slowly, but can rarely look at details of transactions posted. When i read my emails, the trashcan icon is off the edge of the screen so i can't delete without a stylus, yadayadayada.. This has been my pc for a while now and i just want what i had. It's ridiculous how long it takes to load a web image. I've wiped it sso many times now, but can't wipe 7. Made an appt @ THE APPLE STORE. Bet they tell me tough s**t ..

Portege P3500: It's possible to start from USB-stick?

Is it possible to start from usb-stick? i have tried to make a bootable usb-stick , and it really worked on my pc at home , but not on the laptop ..bios settings are ok , as far i know (usb-fdd legacy enable , first boot device fdd)
where is the problem ?

Try to update bios. Even though it has that option does not mean that it will. Make sure in BIOS that legacy emulation is enabled as well. Then connect your USB and turn on the computer. Go into bios and check to see if your USB keystick is located under boot devices, which it should be. Other then that, you might have installed the boot program wrong. CD's etc have a boot.ini file. Basically an ini means initiate. So boot.ini initiates boot process. If this is configured wrong, or doesnt exist on the boot device you are using, it will not boot from the device even if configured in BIOS.

Is it possible to print from classic?

Hi Folks! I've tried unsuccessfully for 3 years now to print from classic. If I really need to print from one of my OS9 apps I usually just put the file in the OS9 computer (that's why I keep it) and print from there by just unplugging the printer from the OSX computer and plugging it into the OS9 computer. It's not the drivers or the printer as all of that's installed. I suspect is has to do with print spooling and background printing but I've tinkered with this for a LOOOOOG time with no success. Tom

I suspect that you're using an HP inkjet. I have several HP inkjets, and all of them, without fail, simply refuse to print from Classic _using the HP drivers_. (Tiger fixed things so I can print. See below.) In all cases, attempting to print in the background works just fine, right up to where the spool file has been created and is about to actually go to the printer. I then get an error, on some printers, indicating that the file cannot be printer. On others, Classic simply either freezes or crashes. If I restart Classic, it'll freeze or crash again as soon as the print system attempts to print that file. If I delete the spool file, all is fine... except that I didn't get any output. The HPs started misbehaving with Panther. My Epson inkjet still works, so I suspect the problem ain't Apple's fault. The problem goes away if I boot the machine in OS 9... where it's possible to boot the machine in OS 9.
If I try to print from the foreground instead, I just move things up. Now I get the error message, freeze, or crash immediately instead of waiting for the spool file to be created.
That said, printing from Classic is simple... if you are not using a HP or Lexmark non-PostScript inkjet printer and are trying to print from Panther. (Jaguar and HP wasn't a good match, either, but at least sometimes you'd get output.) Given that most (not all, though...) Epson and Canon inkjets and all PostScript devices, even inkjets, were able to print, I suspect that HP's and Lexmarks' drivers have problems.
Tiger fixed the problems. In Tiger, Apple rigged it so that it doesn't matter if the vendors' drivers work or not, or even if they have OS 9 drivers, as long as they have _OS X_ drivers. In Tiger, the default is for printers in Classic to use the Apple LaserWriter 8 driver and pretend to be a PostScript device. The LW8 driver then hands off the output _to the proper OS X driver_, which then prints. You don't get features which aren't in the LW8 driver, but you do get output, including colour output. If you have an Epson inkjet, you can still use the Epson OS 9 driver... if Epson supplies one. It will usually work.
I suspect that you would be able to print from Classic just fine if you were using Tiger. You're using Panther. I suspect that you're not going to be upgrading at this late date.

Ajax without JavaScript - Is it really possible?

I read your article Ajax Without J . Wondering Is it really possible.
How about if i have following situations
1) I wanna display Alert Message whenever users click on Delete button i.e. confirmDelete function using JavaScript
2)Clearing the form fields on click of Reset button
This can be easily accomplished using JavaScript functions. Do we have something similar in Ajax4Jsf
Also is it possible to conditionally render buttons using Ajax4Jsf. For example whenever user selects "New" from h:selectOneMenu i dont wanna display Delete button. I am using Ajax4Jsf here with reRender attribute on h:commandButton it doesnt work

Is this possible: SNC connection from SAP GUI to SAP Router, and ...

Hi,
I have (stupid perhaps) question.
Is this scenario possible:
SNC connection from SAP GUI to SAP Router, and non-SNC connection from SAP Router to SAP System.
I know how to set up scenario like this:
SAP System --- (non-SNC conn) --- saprouter1 --- (SNC conn) --- saprouter2 --- (non-SNC conn) --- SAP GUI.
Best regards,
Marek Majchrowski

Wolfgang,
To be sure myself and Marek understand, can you confirm the different scenarios supported:
Scenario 1:
SAP GUI --- (non SNC conn) --- saprouter1 --- (SNC conn) --- saprouter2 --- (non-SNC conn) --- SAP System
With this scenario, it would be possible for a user to logon using SAP GUI onto the SAP System, but without SAP GUI SNC.
Scenario 2:
SAP GUI --- (SNC conn) --- saprouter1 --- (non SNC conn) --- saprouter2 --- (SNC conn) --- SAP System
With this scenario it would be possible to logon to the SAP System using SAP GUI, and using SNC authentication.
Also, with this scenario the SAP GUI software and SAP System software would consider this to be similar to:
SAP GUI -- (SNC conn) -- SAP System
Scenario 3:
This is the scenario mentioned by Marek in his initial question:
SAP GUI -- (SNC conn) -- saprouter1 -- (non SNC conn) -- SAP System
With this scenario it will not be possible to logon to SAP System using SNC, and only possible if the SAP GUI is configured to not use SNC. In other words the SNC connection between SAP GUI and saprouter1 is available, but cannot be used.
Thanks,
Tim

Is it possible to print from Windows 8.1 to a printer connected to the USB port on an Airport Express?

Is it possible to print from Windows 8.1 to a printer connected to the USB port on an Airport Express?
a) HP printer with USB port only (no ethernet port) connected to Airport Express
b) No issue printing from Macs
Tests
1) Installed Bonjour 2 - does not find printer (now uninstalled)
2) Bonjour 3 is listed in programs but no way to access
3) Using TCPIP address (and no Bonjour) gives 'Unsupported Personality' error when printing test page
Regards
Richard
p.s. why are all Windows 8.1 questios n the forum 'Locked' with no reply?

This is possible, but not with Bonjour or any other fixes. It is just a printer set up based on the Port name of the Airport, 10.0.1.1.
I found the answer on YouTube, Title: Windows Printing For Apple AirPort Extreme without Bonjour Wireless wifi.

Is it possible to switch from the preinstalled iTunesU to the original iTunes on an iPad. If it is can someone explain how to do it?

Is it possible to switch from the preinstalled iTunesU on my iPad to the original iTunes. If it is can someone tell me how, and is this something that commonly happens?

I'm not sure what you are asking. There is no "preinstalled iTunesU" on an iPad. The iTunes app is a portal to the iTunes Store. Use the icons at the bottom of the page to switch to different sections of the store. Use the Music app or the Videos app to access iTunes media you have synced to the iPad.
To learn more, refer to the iPad iOS5 User Guide

Is it possible to restore from a backup after initial setup on my iPad air?

is it possible to restore from a backup after initial setup on my iPad air?

You don't even have to do to an erase all content and settings.
Just connect the iPad to iTunes. Once it appears on the left, right click on it and select restore from backup. It's that easy.

Is it possible to boot from a shared dvd or disk image remotely

Is it possible to boot from a shared dvd or disk image remotely without using netboot for install or utility?

All Apple Remote Desktop can do is point a system to a startup disk; it has no facility for providing a boot image. So you may want to ask this question in the Mac OS X or Mac OS X Server forums. You'll be more likely to get suggestions there, though other than NetBoot I know of no way to boot a group of computers from a single disk image or DVD.

There has never been a legit way to downgrade.
It will always restore to the latest available software.

Hi....is it possible to print from iPad to a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909 printer? Thanks for any help!

Hi....is it possible to print from iPad to a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909 printer? Thanks for any help!

The HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909 is not an AirPrint printer, if that is what you're asking. HP has proprietary apps that may be suitable for your needs.
To print directly from an iPad / iPhone you will need an AirPrint compatible printer or another device to act as a print server. That can be a Mac computer running Printopia ($19.95 with free trial) or handyPrint (donation - supported). The Mac must be "on" but may be asleep for them to work. Equivalent PC options may exist but you're on your own finding them.
You can also buy this standalone print server:
http://www.lantronix.com/it-management/xprintserver/xprintserver.html
These options enable you to use any printer available to your Mac, even older ones that may predate AirPrint by decades.
Otherwise you will need to buy an AirPrint printer or multifunction device.
