Is there a way around the cloud not being compatible with windows xp?

I have been using a blackberry bold but am excited to be purchasing the iphone 4s. My idea was to use 1 phone for both personal and business use. I have been synching the blackberry with outlook (non enterprise). I am a solo attorney and have one office computer not on a server. I was planning on synching business stuff (calendar, contacts) with outlook in the office on my windows xp computer and synch my media from a family shared library (via my playlist) on the cloud.
Do you have any suggestions as to how I can synch my contacts, calendar, etc to all of my i devices (incl. ipad 2 and itouch as well as my iphone ) without using hosted outlook exchange. (Exchange is not compatible with other office software).

The dll's and exe's for Photo stream are located here: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Internet Services
If you try and run ApplePhotoStreams.exe or ApplePhotoStreamsDownloader.exe you get an error saying "The procedure entry point SHGetKnownFolder path could not be located in the dll SHELL32.dll." It looks like this function call is not supported for XP:
http://cboard.cprogramming.com/windows-programming/101380-shgetknownfolderpath-p roblem.html
Frustrating...Not sure there is a workaround, would be nice if you could drop in SHELL32.dll in the Windows folder that supported this function call.

Is there a way to get Safari NOT to open previous windows on restart?

When you launch Safari, hold the SHIFT key.
Alternatively, disable the window restore feature in Sys Prefs > General: "Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps," or uncheck the box for restoring windows after restart in the restart pop-up box.

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘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 recently inherited a macbook pro when my good friend passed away. the screen is password locked. is there any way around the login without knowing the password???

How can I get past the password locked login without the password

The first thing you should do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
1. You don't own another Mac.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
2. You do own another Mac.
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
Once booted from the disc, the USB device, or Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it under your ID. In that case, contact iTunes Support.

Is there a way around the build-in FTP as read-only access

"With read-only access, you can copy files from the server, but to copy files to the server you may need another FTP app. Choose Apple menu > App Store to find FTP apps available for OS X."
Is there a way to get around this? Can i get the build-in FTP to allow for uploading files as well? Terminal “hack” or something?

>> Can i get the build-in FTP to allow for uploading files as well? Terminal “hack” or something?
Not with a Terminal hack, no; and it's nothing to do with being a guest user.
Consider EtreNet which costs $10, but appears to do what you want.

Is there a way around the Maximum File size of 2.0 GB Exceeded message???

I tried to bounce a two hour mix set for the first time today, and I received this message
---->Maximum File size of 2.0 GB Exceeded
I've tied fiddling with the tempo (read somewhere that this might help), but to no avail. I originally wanted to bounce a file down to 192 kbps. I mean is there no way to record anything over an hour and a half into Logic?
Please advise! Thanks!

Yes. Use the .caf file format. No file size restrictions.
LP8 Use4r Manual. p. 359:
*Maximum Recording Size*
+The AIFF and SDII file formats can not handle audio file recordings larger than 2 GB:+
• For 16 bit, 44.1 kHz stereo files, this equals a recording time of about 3 hours and 15+

Is there any way around the ETF

So Verizon sold me a "global" phone but they conviniently forgot to tell that global service is not going to work with this phone. I was surprised to learn about it when I called from them from the airport to activate it. I called to cancel because I was under impression that I had 30 days but as it turns out VZW only gives you 14. Now I'm stuck with 2 lines and a family plan and VZW is asking $690 ETF. Is there any clause that would let me out of this contract without paying the ETF since I was sold a device and service that is not working as promised?
BTW perhaps someone wants to get a family plan with two lines and 23 months on the contract? I'm willing to pay for one month worth of service.

Obviously I was refering to Incredible 2 that was sold to me as a "global" phone. I know that VZ's iPhone 4 is not a global phone unlike the AT&T's one.
The Incredible 2 did come with Vodafone SIM card but it never worked in Western Europe. The SIM card didn't work in another unlocked GSM phone.
Before leaving U.S. I called VZ customer service from the airport and asked to activate international romaing on my new shiny Incredible 2. The CSR was very nice and tried to help but apparently something didn't work and he gave me a phone number to call: 888-866-6924 (he actually had to text me that number, apparently the phone company cannot transfer phone calls between its own offices. Well at least he didn't ask me to write it down). I'm still wondering was it wrong phone # or did VZ manage to build unbreakable IVR maze. I didn't figure out a way to talk to a live person. It asked me for SSN (couldn't find a match) or my VZ employee number which I don't have as I am not employed with VZ. Standard tricks, like wrong choice, *, # etc didn't work either. At that time I spent well over an hour on that and my flight was boarding so I decided to shoot VZ an email instead and hope that next day when I land in Europe my phone will magically work.
I received an email reply a day later with apologies and offer of account credit in the amount of my last payment (that was very nice btw). But still no word on making the international service work. I replied and asked if I can be 100% sure that next time I travel the phone will work and the answer was negative. So then I asked to cancel the service since it was less than 30 days since activation and VZ said it won't cancel unless I pay the ETF as they only give 14 days grace period.
So I'm wondering if it'd be possible to terminate the contract based on fact that I didn't get the service I was sold? VZ salesperson said that it will work internationally but I don't have anything in writing to support that.

Is there any way around the slideshow widget limitations

Unless I'm missing something, the only lightbox/slideshow widget that allows you to change the transition speed between images doesn't have an "Add Images" button, and also appears to force you to keep thumbnails. I don't like the quick fade look I'm getting. Is there a way to drill deeper into the options on this, or do I have to move on to Dreamweaver and do my own jquery coding to get the slideshow I'm after?

Hello,
As far as slideshow is concerned, we have the option to control the transition speed in all the options (Basic, Blank, Lightbox and Thumbnails) out of which Basic and Balnk are the options which have Add image option and do not force you to use Thumbnails.
If you are specifically looking to use the Lightbox effect then I am afraid it does not allow you to get rid of the thumbnails. Reason being, we need a trigger for Lightbox effect to come up and these thumbnails are the triggers for it.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sachin

HT204074 Is there a way around the 10 max iOS devices per iTunes account?

I work in a games company that have numerous iOS devices. I want to create an iTunes account that can be associated with all the devices for testing purposes. Is there a way to have a business/corporate iTunes account for this?
Thanks,
Adam

There is no standard iTunes Store account that provides any extra permissions. But when you sign up as an iOS developer, you get the ability to register and provision up to 100 devices for testing. Sign in your member center and go to the iOS Provisioning Portal and you'll find full information.

Why is Apple lying about Siri not being compatible with the iPhone 4?

Why is Apple saying that Siri needs the A5 chip when theres videos all over the web of Siri working fine on the A4 chip!!!

Apple never explicitly stated that Siri requires the A5. Anyone stating otherwise is lying. If someone can disprove me, please do.
What Apple has explicitly stated is that Siri is in beta and is a feature of the iPhone 4S.
Lots of people have hacked or jailbroken phones and gotten lots of things working on them. That doesn't prove anything.
