Needing to check compatibility of a MicroSD card with my Stream Notebook before buying card

Would a SanDisk Ultra 16GB UHS-I/Class 10 Micro SDHC Memory Card be compatible with an HP Stream Notebook - 11-d010wm (ENERGY STAR)? I already have a couple of Micro SD cards, but they're older and not being acknowledged when I put them in the card reader slot, so I guess they're not compatible. I'm looking to buy a new SD card, but don't want to run into the same issue, so want to verify compatibility before purchasing...any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi. This computer is new - I just got it last week - and as far as I know, everything seems to work well on it. When I put my two old micro SD cards in, though, nothing happens at all. I did try them in a different laptop, as well, and they weren't acknowledged there, either. But both cards, although older, have never been used in a computer before, I've only ever used them in my phone. I would think that at least one of them would work in at least one of my laptops...I don't know why neither of them is working in either laptop, but it doesn't really matter, because the size on them is too small for what I need for this computer anyway - they're only 8GB and I need a minimum of 16GB and preferably more - so I just want to buy a new, larger size card. I'm just concerned about running into the same problem yet again. I tried to do a little researching on the internet, but the best I came up with is that not all cards are compatible with all OS, which could explain why the older cards don't work, but doesn't help with any specifics on what type of new card would work. But from what you know, the Stream should accept pretty much any SD card?

Need to check tls/ssl but getting stuck with "You must provide a value expression on the right-hand side of the '-' operator."

I would like to disable ssl 3 but need to test what sites only support ssl 3. I keep getting stuck with an error that is over my head. I've tried manipulating the string a dozen different ways and keep getting the same error. I am not familiar with -notin
or how to specify which part of the property its checking: thanks a ton

I need to check my iTunes Gift Card Balance. Help!

I bought a few gift cards from Staples during a sale, and want to gift them to my friends. Each card is supposed to have 25$ on it.
My question is this- I need to make sure that the balance is on the card before gifting it. So that I'm not embarrassed later on.
I browsed for answers and came across 2 popular answers.
1. Go to iTunes and click redeem..etc etc.
But in doing so won't I end up adding the balance to my account? The gift card will no longer be valid. right?
2. Call 888-320-3301.
I called the number. It's an automated system asking me to put in my 16 digit code. Now my 16 digit code is alphanumeric. something like XZN34...etc.
So HOW do I put in my code?? HELP!

An iTunes card isn't like other gift cards where there's a balance that is embedded on the card at the time of purchase. It's a fixed amount built into the card (actually it's embedded in the redemption code) that gets added to a user's iTunes Store account when the card is redeemed. Unless the card was previously redeemed, something which it is impossible to check without actually redeeming the card, which can be done only once, there's no way to confirm the balance, but I've never run into a situation where the amount wasn't the amount printed on the card. Only if Staples didn't activate the cards would there be any possibility of a problem, barring a very unusual circumstance.
I think you can give the cards without fear.
Regards.

I need to check the balance on a gift card. I do not know if it has been used.

I just had this issue. The only way to check is to go to iTunes, sign in, click redeem and enter the code. I had a card that my wife swore she used but thought I'd check it anyway. Good thing I did, $50 credit.

Fan broken. need to check if the card is alive

Hi,
Today i've found the fan on my NX6600GT broken while the computer was on (no games, just desktop applications working). I've turned off the computer and let the card cool (it was really hot). The plastic on the fan was nearly melting. Now i need to check if any component has been burnt on the card (if not, i won't send it to MSI but just replace the cooler with a better one). How this can be done safely? Can i temporarily replace the fan (leave the heatsink) with some chipset fan? I want to turn the computer on for an hour and see if something bad happens (like garbage on screen) indicating the card is damaged.
Thanks in advance

A few minutes won't hurt, and likely it didn't do any real damage...but you don't know how long that fan's been stopped do you?
I wouldn't do anyhting other than just get to desktop and then shutdown.
I would look for an aftermarket solution rather than just trying to mess with the fan itself. The assembly is proprietary and there is not an option just to replace the fan with a standard type fan.
You could also consider an RMA if you have another card you can use temporarily. Otherwise you need to look in your region for a e/retailer that sells aftermarket fans for the NX6600GT

SanDisk microSD card not detected

Greetings,
My 8900 model is not detecting the 2 GB microSD card I just purchased for it. I have triple checked the insertion, rebooted the device, updated the software, reformatted the card on my PC, and set the Memory options to automatically detect and use a media card once inserted.
Can anyone tell me why the card is still not being detected? Many thanks!

Also keep in mind that what ever else you have stored on the phone memory will limit the amount of messages as the phone memory is a shared space.
Contacts, Images, Ringtones, Music, Calendar entries and other things stored on the phone memory limits the space left to be use by messages. Go to your gallery and see what you have stored in phone memory and try to put it on the memory card instead.
You can also try to do the following :
Menu->Gallery->Options->Memory Status->Phone Memory
You should get a break down of the usage as in :
Free Memory : x.xxMB
Gallery : x.xxMB
Messaging : x.xxMB
Applications : x.xxMB
Bookmarks : x.xxMB
Knowledge should be your Advisor when you need help.

Microsd card problems

Hi. My blackberry pearl 8120 had been reading the microsd card fine until I connected it to my computer last week to transfer some pictures. Now the blackberry won't read the sd card and my computer won't even pick up my blackberry, with or wothout the sd card in it! Any ideas?
Thanks
Paul

Pcopechu,
We'll need to seperate the issues. 1) your phone does not read the mSD card 2) your PC does not does not detect your BB
Please attempt the following to check one of the options on the your Smartphone:
To go "Options" > "Media Card" > and ensure "Mass Storage Mode Support" is turned "On"
This may resolve both issues, but if you are still unable to connect your BB with your PC you may want to try the following: attempt another USB port and the uninstal and reinstalltion of the Blackberry Desktop and Device softwares.
Hope this helps,

4k video recording and microSD card speed

Hello, I am currently trying to find what microSD card type Xperia Z2 needs to shoot 4k videos smoothly. Is UHS Speed Class 1 (U1) card with about 30 MB/s writing speed enough to shoot 4k videos with no problems at all? I am just asking if Sandisk Ultra series are enough and should I bother with Sandisk Extreme for example with 45 MB/s writing speed or with Xperia Z2 4k video recording I won't see any difference?

sandisk shows better compatibility with xperias
also beside of writing speed you must format your sd card with "exFAT" format,caues of 4GB writing limit

How do I completely disable initial "Checking Compatibility of Add-ons" pop-up for all users on a Citrix server where the FireFox was upgraded to 29.0.1

I have a set of Citrix servers, we need to upgrade the FireFox on them to 29.0.1
When I have done this, and a user runs FireFox, now the users are being presented with a pop-up "Checking Compatibility of Add-ons" which delays the start of FireFox.
I need to prevent this so users just see FireFox start up without any delays.
I have installed the add-on that re-enables extensions.checkCompatibility and tried various ways of implementing it like pref("extensions.checkCompatibility", false);
However we seem to have a situation where the add-on that enables the setting is not loaded yet so the setting is not implemented.
How do I solve this for all users?

You can try to set the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref to ignore on the about:config
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone
You can use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to specify new (default) values and possibly lock prefs.
Place a local-settings.js file in the defaults\pref folder where also the channel-prefs.js file is located to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

Lumia 1520/AT&T: What is the best MicroSD card opt...

Hello,
I am writing to the Nokia forums because I have a doubt on which 64gb MicroSD card I should buy for my Nokia Lumia 1520 (AT&T model). I want to use this card for photos and video recording at 1080p up to 30FPS.
Doing some research, I found that for best results I need a Class 10 MicroSDXC card if I don't want the video to skip during the recording if writing the video directly to the card as I record. Apparently I also have to look for the UHS-1 designation aside from Class 10.
Therefore, I went shopping around in Amazon.com and I have narrowed down my choices to the following three cards.
Sandisk 64GB Class 10 UHS-1
Transcend 64GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1
Sony 64GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1
Out of the three choices which one provides the better option? I am leaning towards the Transcend MicroSD card, but would like to get a feedback from Lumia 1520 owners.
Michael

The sandisk is the one I use with no issues whatsoever

Is it possible to install an app obtained via a MicroSD card or Bluetooth?

Suppose I'm in an area where there is very little Wi-fi or other internet access (e.g. rural Papua New Guinea).
Or, an area where the internet is strictly controlled or monitored. So the Marketplace is not an option.
People around me are using their cheap cell phones to share photos via bluetooth, and music and videos via SD cards.
Question: can I also distribute an app via MicroSD card or Bluetooth?
I've tried this with some Java phones and found that installing an app from either of those sources is disallowed.
What about on FirefoxOS?
The Firefox OS web site says you can update the OS from an SD card.
One of the FAQ's at http://www.ebay.com/itm/ZTE-OPEN-C-3G-Unlocked-Firefox-Smartphone-Cell-Phone-Dual-Core-GPS-WiFi-AT-T-/291243074570?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item43cf70a40a suggests that you cannot install an app from an SD card, at least on a ZTE Open C.
But I'd like to get more of a horse's-mouth answer, if possible.
Is this something that Firefox OS leaves up to the discretion of each phone manufacturer?
Or is it considered such a security risk that Firefox OS will not allow it on any phone?
Thanks,
Lars

Hi, huttarl!
Beyond the Firefox Marketplace, your options for distributing apps are unfortunately rather limited.
To my knowledge, Firefox OS does not support any Bluetooth/microSD card app installation. However, you can install an app to a phone by connecting the phone to a computer via USB cable. This is often used by developers but may suit your needs: [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Using_the_App_Manager See this article on the Mozilla Developer Network].
I hope that helps! Please feel free to post back with more questions.

New BB Z30 Freezing, Docs are unable to Open, microSD card automatically formatted after restart, unable to open Some Pictures, Long time for Charging

I purchased a new BlackBerry Z30 recently from http://store.shopblackberry.com/store/bbrryus/en_US/pd/productID.298806900/categoryID.66826600/paren... and my Phone Model number is STL 100-5. I also purchased a Z30 Leather flip case manufactured by BlackBerry. I am using my BlackBerry Z30 along with the Z30 Leather flip case.
1) Within the first 2 weeks of receiving and using the new BB Z30 device, I noticed a problem of screen not responding some times. My phone has been freezed at the lock screen. My phone is not responding to any key except for the power button. So, I had an option of only restart/Turn Off my BlackBerry Z30 device. All the time whenever I had this problem, I have to restart my device in order to make it work properly again. I complained about this issue with BlackBerry Technical Support. They assisted me to reset the device to factory settings by taking a full backup. After reset also, I still had the same issue.
2) I am using Sandisk Extreme microSD card of 32GB with my BB Z30 device. Some times due to the restart option, all the data which I had on my microSD card is being erased and is filled with an unknown files.
3) I'm also unable to open some pictures which I have taken using BlackBerry Z30. As I observed, most of the pictures which I taken using Blackberry Z30 are unable to be open/view them after a few days. Still, I am able to observe the properties of those pictures. They are in JPEG format only.
4)Also If I create a Word Document on BlackBerry Z30 using Docs to Go Application and saved it. After closing that particular document and If I try to open it, the document file is not opening and projecting me an error of "This is not a valid .Doc file", but while I check the properties of that particular document it is in .doc format. I tried to transfer the file to my laptop using bluetooth. After a few seconds (approx 2-3 seconds) automatically the transferring is cancelled by the BlackBerry Z30 device. However, I tried to transfer the file within that short time using Bluetooth. While I tried to open it on my laptop using Microsoft Office 2013, the file is displaying with a squares of upto 4 pages while I had a content in it of 3 lines only. While I opened my file using Microsoft Office 2013, there is only squares available in that document.
5) My new BlackBerry Z30 is taking a long time of approximately 6-7 hours to charge the device from 10% to 100%
I request someone to help me with this issues. I would like to thank everyone who can help me with these issues in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

On 7th of Jan 2015 I made my device to factory reset. Also I removed microSD card from my device. As I observed for these 3 days, one time while I received a missed call, I tried to have a look at it. I observed that my screen has been freeze at the receiving call position and its not responding. I tried to close and reopened the display of my device with a flip case which I'm currently using for my device. At this time, after 3-4 swipes to unlock the device, again its back into working condition.
About Documents, I'm able to create, save and open the documents without any issues till now.
About Pictures, they are also working fine without any issues.
I also observed the charging time as approximately 3 hours for charging the device from 14% to 100%.
