Just a Little advice here

Hello people
i just bought HP Pavilion dv6-3050us so the system notifies me to create a Backup Disk so i made a backup disks only for the drive D which is the recovery drive ,
my question is do i have to make a recovery disks from "Recovery Manager" or backup Disks are the same ,although both of them requires 5 DVDs .
This question was solved.

Hi,
Yes, you will need to use Recovery Manager to create a set of Recovery Discs - the first disc created using this will be bootable and allow you to reinstall the operating system.  Using windows backup will not create a bootable first disc and would not be able to recover your system should you need to.  Windows Backup is intended to create a backup of all your files etc that are on the C Partition.
A guide to Windows Backup is on the link below.

  • Trying to change ownership of my old iPod. The advice here is to go to "Devices" "Summary" "Restore", but I find "Devices" does not offer "Restore" but only "Sync", "Transfer", "Backup", and a greyed "Restore from backup."

    What I don't understand is that your iTunes looks different from mine--just a little bit. You have 3 circles, red, yellow, and green, in the upper right end of the top bar. INstead I have a square that is half gray. When I click it, I get a menu very similar to the menu under "File."
    The only place I see an entry for "Devices" is under "File," but it only gives the 4 options I mentioned before (see below). There is no "Summary."
    Here's another screen shot after I added an album to music. Now all the choices under "Devices" are grayed.

  • My kid id just starting to explore her voice. Are there formats of music that can be simply imported to Gband that she can then add her voice over. I know its Kereokeeish, but she is 7 and wants to tinker with recording. thanks for input.

    My kid is just starting to explore her voice. I was trying to find out is there a way to import insturmental versions of songs to Gband and then allow her to sing over the music. Essentially creatig a cover of the song with her voice that can later be tweaked in the Gband program. I know this is kereokeeish, but she is 6 and im brand new at Gband and have no studio backround. Very cool program but a little overwhelming so far. Thanks for any guidance.

    search for standard MIDI files, they can simply be dropped into the GB timeline and you can then assign instruments to each track.
    as well if you find any karaoke files in any of GB's supported formats:

    (Let the page FULLY load. The link to your answer is at the top of your screen)
    you can drop them into the timeline as well

  • I need a little advice on chosing RAM brand for my MBP

    Hi, from France !
    The computer store just next where I live has these 2 brands of RAM, and I am not sure which I should chose, so I was wondering if someone with experience could give me a little advice on which brand I should go with
    This is what they have :
    • Corsair : http://www.ldlc.com/fiche/PB00071269.html
    • G. Skill : http://www.ldlc.com/fiche/PB00080116.html
    (both 200 pins, unbuffered *(should I go for buffered, what's the difference ?)*, DDR2 667, PC2-5300)
    +(this is for a MacBook Pro 2,33Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo (late 2006))+
    Thanks a lot, do not hesitate to give your opinion even if someone else already answered !
    (oh and extra bonus question, what benefit would I get by spending more money on ram for this kind of computer ? any suggestion on something else that would really rock ?)

    Honestly, either is fine. There's no meaningful benefit by spending more.
    RE buffered vs. unbuffered - essentially, unbuffered is what you want (buffered/registered RAM is for server applications).

  • I have a MacBook Pro 5,4 running OSX 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10. A website i like has a known bug with 5.1.10 and recommends I install a newer version of Safari or use Firefox or Chrome. Just looking for advice on the best approach. Thanks!

    Unfortunately, Safari cannot be updated past 5.1.10 on a Mac running v10.6.8.
    So, the options are to upgrade to a newer OS X or use Firefox or  Chrome.

  • I have brought a 17'' MacBook Pro 2.5ghz core 2 duo 2gb. Model A1261. It seems I can upgrade to either 8gb or 16gb ram! But since It's 2006'ish, I just want some advice on the best ram that would work for a good price. Thanks :)

    8 gb will do I guess
    Based on the information that you have supplied, you have a Early or Late 2008 MBP.  Maximum RAM that it will accept is 6 GB with the following specifications:   200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM.
    The best sources for Mac compatible RAM are OWC and Crucial.

  • [Thinkpad Yoga] Just a little bit of baby pee: few keys kaput!

    Hi,
    The other day our baby peed on my laptop. I don't know whether it was on purpose, he just tells me brrrruu. Now, these keys are not working: Backspace, Left Shift, Esc, Tab, T, Y, [ and ].
    I had this before, with just a little bit of water, exactly the same. Then they replaced the keyboard. Unfortunately I cannot send it back for repairment.
    What to do? I've heard of trying to clean it with a pressured air can, I'll try to find that one. Any ideas?
    Btw, I thought thinkpad keyboards were water proof?

    Your baby is quite precocious by so eloquently expressing his opinion about your TP... :-)
    As the human urine does contain conductive and corroding salts (more than the sea water), I'd open my TP, take the KB module out and try to wash it with distiled water. Then let it dry and put it back.
    This should gently dissolve and remove the potential shortcircuits, w/o the aggressivity of pure alcohol - professionally used for quick repairs in such case. Also the smell will vanish ;-).
    Strong opinions are costly, particularly when the point is made with bodily fluids :-)

  • I dropped my iPhone and i tried to turn it on but it only comes on at curtain times. And it turns back off when I drop it just a little bit. Sometimes it takes like three days to turn back on. How do I get it to work regularly again?? Please help!!!

    Seems like there is some physical damage causing an intermittent issue of the iPhone being unable to power on.
    You could try a reset:
    - hold the home button and sleep/wake button down at the same time
    - the iphone will turn off(keep holding) then when the Apple logo appears release both buttons
    If the reset fails I would suggest next time it powers on to try and back it up to either iTunes/iCloud then you can try a restore to factory settings or just back up and book an appointment at an Apple Store to have the iPhone evaluated.
    All the best

  • I have an iPhone 5.  always before when i called someone..or they called me the picture of them would take up the whole screen.  I LOVED it!  I could see it.  Since the last update it is just a little "bubble" in the upper right hand corner.  Can i change

    Hi  I have an IPhone 5.  Always before when I called someone...or they called  and I had a pic set up for them in my contact list..... it would pop up the full size of the screen.  I LOVED it!  I could actually see it.  Now...since the last update...or maybe the one b4 that.... The pic is just a little bubble that floats to the upper right hand corner.  Does anyone know if there is a way I can get that full size pic back?

    I'm sorry, there is no way to change that. It is a change with the newer iOS 7. You can provide feedback to Apple, like a large group of others have that are disappointed in this at www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.

  • How to export just a little piece of a comp?

    Can I export just a little piece of the comp rather than "Export active comp to new track" which delivers the whole comp?
    After I comp my take and then listen to it again, sometimes I just want to go back and change one little part. The workflow would be alot easier if I could just export a small part, either with the loop indicator or another way.
    Thanks.

    Try hold the shift key while comping. This allows you to adjust the boundaries of one take, without filling in the area from another take. You can make holes, or create a comp with just one phrase. You'll probably end up with a couple of really narrow slices on a couple takes in the middle of a blank area - just grab and move them all the way to the edge with the regular swipe tool. Also when you now export, or move, this comp you may end up with a couple extra regions on the very front and back of the whole take area, but those are easy enough to delete.

  • I am just a little embarrased... i have a new dell and an old ipod.  i want to put a cd in my dell and copy it onto my old ipod...dell and apple do not seem to be talking to each other... how in **** do i do this!

    i am just a little embarrased... i have a new dell and an old ipod.  i want to copy a cd from my new dell onto my old ipod but absolutely nothing comes up on the screen to do this....

    You will first have to install the OS that shipped with the Mac. After that, you can upgrade it to Mavericks.

  • I bought unlocked iphone 6 in one store in UAE dubai. When i open the sim card slot there is an verizon simcard inside. I'm just a little bit worried if i phone i have now is a second hand or what. Any idea? Thanks.

    It's A1549 model. Yeah i knew this is US version before i buy this. What i'm confusing now do u think this iphone i bought is a brand new one and why there is a sim card already inside the simcard slot? Even its working smoothly using a network in UAE. Some of my friends bought there US version of iphone but they bought it without simcard inside the sim card slot.
