Need easy instructions on creating a 2 computer network

Hi!
Recently I aquired a second Mac, a MacBook Pro. I'd like to set up a mini network between my 2 computers. The MBP is wireless connected to the Internet and the stationary through Ethernet cable to the Internet, directly to the broadband modem. It can be connected to the wireless router if needed.
Can someone tell me the easiest way to connect these 2 "puters"? I have years ago managed to connect 2 "puters" but I get confused when I shall create the accounts. I am the only person using both "puters"
Point me in the right direction. Thank you!

Need Detailed Instructions on Syncing Contacts to Computer

After thoroughly reviewing the online help information, and carefully reading the menu descriptions I do not "precisely" know how to:
1) Copy my iphone contacts to my computer for backup storage.
2) Maintain that backup storage by actively syncing to it when updates are made via my phone or computer.
3) Correctly and easily restore my phone contacts from my computer to i) a new iphone and ii) to a phone other than an iPhone.
I would appreciate very clear and precise instructions on performing the above tasks.
Thank you.

Welcome to the discussions,
1) The contacts and calendars are part of your iphone backup made by itunes each time you sync your phone in itunes. See this article about the content of the backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
2) Each time you sync, contacts and calendars are updated on the computer and the phone
Contacts, calendars, notes, and webpage bookmarks are synced with applications
on your computer, as described in the following section. Contacts and calendars are
synced both ways between your computer and iPhone. New entries or changes you
make on iPhone are synced to your computer, and vice versa.
copied from http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_UserGuide.pdf , page 12
3) if you connect a new iphone, you will have the choise to use a backup to restore or set it up "as new iphone"
You'll have to use your computer to transfer contact info to another phone or mail them one by one from your iphone.
"Backing up and restoring" http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Don't forget to backup the iphone backup folder as well from time to time, because each new backup replaces the old one. To locate the folder for windows, see "About backups"

Need instructions for creating T61 XP backup media

Can you direct me to instructions for creating the backup media (DVD preferably) for the existing 4GB backup partition on my T61 running XP? It is intact, and I can boot into it, but I'd sleep a little better if I had the option of booting from external media. I'm aware of the advice to call and purchase this media, but I would prefer to just make it myself, if possible.
Thanks!
Moderator Note; post moved to start new thread, subject edited.

I don't recall the step by step, but there is a menu item in the lenovo section you can use to burn recovery media from within windows. If I'm not mistaken, it can only be used once, however if someone already burned a set you can still restore from the harddrive and after restored you will again be able to burn one copy of recovery media.
However, I'll give you my own personal opinion on this. When you install from this recovery media you'll have an outdated operating system. The T61 recovery disc was made in 2006 or 2007 and after you install it you'll need to install the latest service pack, then you'll probably want to replace all the drivers and all the lenovo apps that are also outdated. You're going to end up replacing nearly everything, plus you're going ot have several redundant copies of all this outdated stuff taking up space. My preferred method is to use a windows setup disc that has the latest drivers and critical updates integrated, then go online and download the latest drivers for your hardware and as much or as little of the lenovo products that you want on your system. You then save an enormous amount of harddrive space and have a computer without all the bloat and it all gets done in a fraction of the time. The last time I installed from a factory restore disc set it took hours, then several hours more to replace everything with updated versions.

HELP...new computer, new library, NO BACKUP need detailed instructions

Hello all,
I just built my new PC and put win 7 on it the other day. I downloaded the newest itunes and got all my music and such on there, great.
Now the iphone. I just did a backup of it in its current state but there is not one from my old computer. I understand losing music and photos and even having to get apps again, fine, no problem. Its my contacts I am concerned with.
I tried the program Backup!Contacts but when it goes to send the vcard file it doenst send me the file, its messed up, so I dont have a backup of my contacts on ANYTHING and dont want to lose them.
I currently only have Yahoo as my email. I do not have a mail client on my computer (outlook does not come with office 2007 home and student).
Question and help needed, how do I keep my contacts if it syncs to a new library? I understand that like I said, losing music etc will happen, but I cant lose the contacts.
On my previous computer, it deleted contacts on 3 seperate occasions when trying to sync, I did the merge and all that stuff and it all resulted in the same problem. So now what do I do? How do I keep my contacts? How do I get my contacts off my phone once its back on the new library system? I need detailed instructions, as I said before, when I tried this before it just simply delted everything. I am extremely worried that it will happen again. I do not have apple support as I forgot to register for the 2nd year of support before it ran out. I will at some point have to have them backed up because I will be getting a new phone in August or when the newest versions come out since I will be out of contract and get a good deal.
Thanks for the help. I appreciate it. I really need it, Im not an itunes guy except for music, I just dont get the syncing and it confuses me really bad.

Contacts are included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the sync process. This link provides the data included with your iPhone's backup.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Although contacts are included with your iPhone's backup, contacts are designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer. With Windoze, this can be with Outlook 2003 or 2007 along with syncing calendar events, or with Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only.
When syncing iTunes content and transferring photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from your iPhone first, but no other data is touched on your iPhone - especially if you aren't syncing contacts with a supported application on your computer. Your iPhone is not completely erased of all data and certainly not any iPhone settings when transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer.
Before syncing contacts with Windows Contacts, enter one contact in Windows Contacts. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync with Windows Contacts, which you want to select.

OK , I have my instructional coaches creating power point presentation add audio to each slide with the presenter 10 add ins. I need these presentation converted into MP4 like you can do with adobe presenter video creator.

Love the Adobe products first. OK , I have my instructional coaches creating power point presentation add audio to each slide with the presenter 10 add ins. I need these presentation converted into MP4 like you can do with adobe presenter video creator.

If you import the PPT deck into Captivate it will not bring the audio from Presenter. But you can import it into Captivate after the slide deck has been imported. The audio files aren't necessarily named in a logical fashion in the source files for the presentation, so I would recommend that you publish the presentation locally and then find the 'data' folder in the published output and the audio files will be named in a way that you can infer the slide they are associated with. Not the simplest proceedure but it should be pretty painless.

Need simple instructions on transfering photos from Samsung Gusto phone to computer.

Need simple instructions on transferring photos from Samsung Gusto phone to my PC.

smcolvin, happy to help with getting those pictures transferred. As the Samsung Gusto does not have the mass storage functionality, this requires a out of the box solution. You can send the pictures as a picture message and place your email address in the "to" field. Open your email inbox on your computer, open the messages and then download the images to the computer (usually right click and "save as").
Alternatively, you can send the pictures to the online album and access them there. To send to the online album from your phone, press the left soft key. Message>New Message>Picture message. At the "New Picture Msg" screen, press the Right Soft Key and add "To Online Album." Select "Send." On your computer launch your web browser and log into MyVerizon at verizonwireless.com and then go to vzwpix.com .

Need instructions to create application in SCCM 2012 for Captivate 8

I need instructions for creating an application in SCCM 2012 for the latest versino of Captivate. I found instructions for the prior version but unsure if these apply. The instructions state to create a package, not application. Is it possible to create the application, and are there any special instructions I should know about?
Thanks

Since no one has answer this post, I recommend opening a support case with CSS as they can work with you to solve this problem.

Additional Instructions for Creating USB Installation Media

Greeting Everyone,
I have been trying to install archlinux on my Acer c720 chromebook. The instructions have been posted on one of the forums and I have been following them and ran into a bit of a problem. For some mysterious reason using Syslinux as the bootloader (I think I got that right) puts the C720 into reboot immediately. The forums indicate that I should use GRUB instead of Syslinux. Great! That is exactly what I want to do, and here is the problem:
The instructions for creating the USB Flash Installation Media give step by step instructions for getting archlinux.iso and Syslinux on to the USB memory stick - which I followed and succeeded- but no instructions on how to put GRUB on there instead of Syslinux.
Could someone give me instructions on how to do that.
I am following the "Manual Formatting" --- "In Windows" section of the wiki titled "USB Flash Installation Media."
Just so everyone knows this is my first venture into linux world and away from point and click windows world.....

Those instructions are about the installation(about what you choose to install on your harddisk). So they aren't important yet if you haven't managed to boot up the usb drive. What three images did you try? You should get the image from here:
https://www.archlinux.org/download/
Did you try booting the drive on other machines and how did that go? Did you go through all the instructions described in the wiki(enabling developer mode and enabling legacy boot) and did you get to the boot menu?
Were you able to select the usb drive in the boot menu?
On a side-note, I don't have a Chromebook so I'm not able to confirm the instructions on how to enable developer mode etc.
Yes I used the following images from archlinux.org:
archlinux-2013.10.01-dual.iso
archlinux-2014.01.05-dual.iso
and the third was from a random selection from the drop down menu in LiLi USB creator.
Yes I have followed the instructions from the installation wiki and was able to get the developer mode and to the boot menu on the c720 and able to select USB to boot from.
As I mentioned earlier I had success using the method for creating a USB Installation in the wiki (under "Using manual formatting", "In Windows" https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/US … tion_Media ) I was able to get the archlinux splash screen and it tries to install but resets. And I figured out that this happens because following the instructions I end up with archlinux and Syslinux on the USB and I need arclinux and GRUB.
Hence my request for additional instructions for getting archlinux and GRUB onto a USB for installation.
I will try the USB installation created using LiLi on a different computer - it is much older though and I am not sure it has enough memory for it.

I followed the instructions on creating a ringtone from a song in my library. It's not creating my 40 sec ringtone in my library to drag to ringtone section. Pls help

I followed the instructions on creating a ringtone from a song in my library. It's not creating my 40 sec ringtone in my library to drag to ringtone section. Pls help

Okay, so here is what happend.
I deleted the song from my library since iTunes would not allow me to delete it from the purchased item list. Then i pluged my phone into my computer and got this message:
"iTunes has found purchased items on the iPhone “Paul’s iPhone” that are not present in your iTunes library. Do you want to transfer these items from this iPhone back to your iTunes library?"
I selected "Transfer" and it showed up with a dotted circle next to it where a a song number would normally be displayed. Then fter a couple of minutes the dotted circle magically dissapered and was replaced by a number just like all of the other songs in my library.
And best of all...it plays!!!
Thanks for you help!!

I need easy audio and video converting and editing software?

I need easy audio and video converting and editing software that wont cost $400.

I highly recommend you try Video Monkey. It's free, though donations are certainly accepted, and does an excellent job of converting .mov to .wmv. Choose Best (2 Pass) for Encoding Speed and depending upon the size of your original file, uncheck 320 pixels wide to create a larger converted image. I set Quality to "Go Nuts".
Another good commercial program is Video Converter Ultimate for Mac. It works as video converter and editor. The version for 2 Pass conversion is approximately $69. , which is considerably less than the $400+ that Adobe Premiere is asking for its editor. I'd still prefer a freebie though, but there's little choice...

Instructions to create custom home screen icons for websites and phone #'s

Here are instructions to create a home screen icon for a phone number or a website. This is very cool!
1. Go to http://webclip.us on your computer (not on your phone) and click on "create now".
2. In icon label, type what you want to call your icon.
3. In URL, type either the URL of the website you want to link to, or for a phone number link, type http://##########.tel.QLNK.net (where ########## is the 10 digit phone number you want).
4. In icon file, click the arrow to browse to the photo or image you want the icon to display.
5. Enter the security code shown, then click "upload now". You will get a "webclip number".
6. Now on your iPhone in Safari, go to http://webclip.us and enter the webclip number your computer just generated, and tap Go.
7. Use the plus sign to add the icon to your home screen, change the name to whatever you want, and you will have a cool little icon with the photo you uploaded!
If you used the phone number option, when you tap the icon on your home page, it will launch Safari and then pop up "Call" and "Cancel" buttons to call that phone number directly. If you used a website URL, it will launch that website just like a regular webclip.
So I now have an icon with my husband's face on it that dials his phone number. Very cool!!

Edit to make it clear that I don't take credit for creating this procedure - I simply found a reference to them in another post and posted the step-by-step here because it worked so well for me.

Do you know if this requires the 1.1.3 upgrade.. I got all the way through it until the end where it would not give me a plus sign or a way to add it.. wondering if it can be done with 1.1.2 thanks!
