Old X61 90w ac adapters versus current x230/x220 adapters in weight/size?
I'm having trouble pinning this down because of the number of 'offbrand' units.
Has the size or weight of the 90w adapters changed since the release x61/x61 tablet?
Solved!
Go to Solution.
Hey Shiren,
If you take a look at the link below you will see that the x61 tablet 90w adapter for US/Canda is 40Y7659 and the X230/x220 90w adapter has the same number (see link two).

http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?&LegacyDocID=MIGR-61193
So they are really the same adapter and weight/size are the same:
Approximate height: 30 mm (1.2 in) - AC Adapter
Approximate width: 50 mm (2.0 in) - AC Adapter
Approximate length: 126 mm (5.0 in) - AC Adapter
Weight: 360 g (0.79 lb) - AC Adapter (weight does not include the country-unique AC power cord)
Approximate length: 1.0 m (39.4 in) - AC Power Cord
for both.
Best Regards,
Hiro

Does anyone have any advice regarding 256 bit full disk encryption software for Macs? The other discussions on the topic are years old, so I would like some current input. Thanks for your help in advance.
Depending on your Mac, you might not want to upgrade to OS X 10.7 or 10.8 as it will not run the PowerPC based software your currently using costing a bundle to replace it all, also they will slow down your machine if it's not a more recent issue. You don't want to upgrade OS X without AppleCare defending your possibly bricked logicboard that's for sure.
Filevault encrypts the boot drive, however in doing so makes it near impossible to fix if you have a software issue and need to recover files directly or by using specialty software. Also it robs the machine of performance even more than the Lions do. So you will really need a SSD to work best with 10.7/10.8 and Filevault, then it has to be freshly installed. Filevault needs 50% free space on the boot drive, then it's going to write to the slower 50% half of the hard drive where performance is terrible compared to the first 50%.
Also Filevault is cracked under certain conditions, and if someone gets their hands on the machine (like the law) and knows what they are doing.
If you take your Filevaulted machine to Apple to fix, they are going to require the password to fix the machine obviously.
Software based encryption is vulnerable, you might want to instead place your sensitive data on external self-encrypting hardware that doesn't rely upon software or computer hacks/bypasses (ike freezing the RAM) to get to it.
http://www.datalocker.com/products/datalocker-dl3.html
Iron Keys for portable USB self encryption, both work with any computer, so your not locked into one platform.
With the senstive data off the computer and on a external device, there is the option of removing, hiding and securing the device. If used with a computer that's never connected to the Internet, it's safe from snoopers, except from a survelliance van parked outside your door. -

I created the apple ID that I currently have about 6 years ago and I want to change my primary email from my childish one to my most current email that I constantly use, but I think I accidentally created an apple ID with that email, I want to delete that apple ID so that I can just plug my new email in with all of my old information (that is still the same). I am so lost
I don't believe Apple lets you delete old accounts. They also will not let you merge them.

Running Creative Cloud on an HP with 18Gb Ram - I'm working on a project using 3 yr old dngs and when I open in my up to date Camera Raw it uses the old interface with 'contrast' towards the bottom and 'recovery' below 'exposure' - how do I get Camera Raw to open with the current interface?
Thanks for any help.
CraigIf you're referring to the Process version, you set that in the Camera Calibration tab of ACR.
Also keep in mind that any images with prior adjustments will show the Process used when they were adjusted. That can also be changed in that tab. -
I purchased a new imac (4G, OS X 10.6.8) in Feb 2011 and thought my old iPhoto library transferred over. It wasn't. And I can't get iPhoto to open on my old mac. It says, "can't open your current version of iPhoto using this version of iPhoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto". I don't think my old mac will support the newer version of iPhoto so I feel like I'm stuck (this is why I got a new mac -- cheaper than upgrading all my software, etc). Help! I really need to get to my old photos, and no, they are not backed up anywhere. Thanks.
You have two options:
Run the Library on a machine that has the same version as the machine that was stolen.
or
Recover the files from this library and start over from scratch.
To recover the files:
Go to your Pictures Folder (or whereever you have the back up) and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Your originals are in the Masters folder.
Note this will only recover your photos as imported from you camera.

I was recently given a Mac Mini from a friend. It is an old version (model A1176) and cannot support a current version of iPhoto from the app store. It originally came with iLife, but was apparently wiped when they cleaned the hard drive to give it to me, and they cannot find the CD to reload it. I can no longer find iLife '11 in the app store. Is there anything I can do to be able to store photos from my iPhone onto the computer?
You Model does not support the latest iLife
What specific Mini do you have? The A1179 covers three models
How to identify Mac mini models
The early and late 2006 can only go to 10.6.8 but the mid 2007 can go to Lion. With Lion you can get iPhone from the Mac App Store by:
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
Otherwise you will have to call Apple and order the iLife DVD or get a DVD from Amazon or other places. -
How can I use PowerShell to Remove "Ghost" (Old Hidden) VMware Network Adapters in Windows 7?
We recently upgrade the virtual hardware of some of our VMware VM's running Windows 7. One side-effect is that in Windows on these machines, an instance of the NIC from the previous version of virtual hardware remains, as a hidden
device. This can be easily found manually on a machine by enabling Device manager to show hidden devices (registry and a menu option - View...Show Hidden Devices). You can then just right-click on the device in question and uninstall.
The problem here, like in so many other tasks, is that you may have multiple instances, on multiple machines. We had just that, and in scouring the internet for a PowerShell only script to resolve the issue, I could not find one. Therefore, I've written
my own.
This exact script is only seeking out VMware "VMXNET3" nic cards, but could be easily adapted to find Ghost NIC's for a different vendor using my example. There are also some commented lines left in to aid you as an example of how you can
test the various queries in your own environment, on a test machine, before a full-blown deployment.
NOTE: Please try this out (at your own risk - I am not responsible for how this works out for you), and please vote for my answer to this dilemma if this helped you. I'd appreciate it after all of the sweat the script took to crank out.
Thanks!
P.S. This script, of course, requires that Powershell is installed and enabled on the target computer. It then must be run as System - In our environment it is being remotely pushed through a software delivery systems, which runs this scrpt
as system.

Hello Octavio,
I'm having similar issues with azure VMs (windows server 2008 and 2012). I noticed that the name of the network adapter changes every time the servers are turned off and then on.
For example every time I perform that action on each VM, the network adapter became to "Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter #3" (and then #4, #5, etc).
I found in to many forums that to resolve that is needed to remove Hidden (Ghost) Network Adapters and most of the people is doing that manually from the device manager (right click on the hidden network adapter and select uninstall).
Then I found this script created by you and made some changes to find Description -like "Microsoft Hyper-V Network*".
It seems to find the adapters and also remove them (based on the script results). But if I go to the device manager after restarting the server, all hidden (ghost) adapters are still there (for example Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter
#2, Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter #3, Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter #4, Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter #n).
The only thing I noticed after running the script is that, in the Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center, the name of the adapter has no # (Now is shown as “Ethernet” and before as “Ethernet #”)
This is my script, could you please take a look and tell me if there is something wrong o missing?

How can I combine an old Apple ID database with my current new apple ID
My boss used an old forgotten Apple ID and we found an old IPOD and used touch copy to move the data(music) from the ipod back into I-Tunes. When trying to play we found two problems. One is we no longer use the Apple ID tied to the music files and two we no longer use the e-mail address. She wants to combine her purchases with her new I-Touch.
Is there anyway around this?You cannot combine accounts

I have an old iPod touch with songs from CD's I no longer have (so they weren't purchased on iTunes). The computer that the songs were synced on crashed a while ago. Is there a way I can sync my old iPod to my new computer and retrieve those songs to get them on my new iPhone? They share an Apple ID and iTuens account.
Most Windows users don't.
Purchase an external hard drive and use the backup software that comes with it to backup files from your computer.
Buy TouchCopy and install it on your new computer, connect your old iPod and transfer your songs to your computer. -
I have an iPhone 4 not currently hooked up to a carrier. I am trying to update the software on my computer and it has frozen the phone. The screen has the apple logo and the progress bar three quarters full. How can I unfreeze the phone to continue?
Leave the SIM in and do a restore as new.

3d without glasses versus current pioneer elite pro-151fd
Just a general question to the group: Currently I own a pioneer elite pro-151fd of which I bought 2 yrs ago from BB and had it professionally calibrated after 200hrs of play--to this day--I haven't seen a flat panel that competes w/ the elite except for the Bang and Olsefuen at 5 times the cost,, the elite black levels and color depths are massive,,, do you agree ?? what will be the technology that will overtake the quality level of the pioneer elite "s , when ?? and will there a 3d version of that technology that will be without glasses ?? as a side question--is there anything that could be done as a additional piece of hardware that will become available to convert 2d to 3d without glasses ??

Yes I agree. Nothing today is as good as the Pioneer Kuro technology was.
what will be the technology that will overtake the quality level of the pioneer elite "s , when ??
I think it will still be plasma. When Pioneer stopped production they sold their Kuro tecnology and patents to Panasonic. Panasonic has been slowly incorporating aspects of the Kuro into their lineups and improving on that technology. Many think plasmas are dying but they are not. They will still be around for awhile.
and will there a 3d version of that technology that will be without glasses ?? Eventually but not for another few years. Several companie have already made demo models but there are massive issues with them that prevent them from mass production. Issues such as very poor viewing angles and the cost to produce is so high that the cost of the TV would be prohibitive for mass consumer consumption. -
Hello,
I'm trying to reset my security questions on my apple account but they (apple) keep sending the reset e-mail to my old iTunes e-mail. I have changed/edited my e-mail in my apple account to my curent e-maul but it still sends the reset to my old e-mail.......Hello AndrewsAFCx,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
If you cannot remember your security questions for your Apple ID, I would recommend these steps outlined in the article named:
Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665
What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password
contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.
All the best,

HT1414 i want to restore old version in my ipod touch currently ios6 i want to restore into ios5
updated my ipod touch to ios6 now i am not able to run ios6 in my xcodeVersion 4.3.2 (4E2002), i want to restore my ipod touch to old version which i am using previously (ios5). please give me some suggestion to do this.
Well, if you are using XCode then you are obviously a developer (or at least you should be...). If you are a developer then you should already know that Apple does not support rolling back or 'downgrading" to a previous version of iOS.

Trying to get my old G4 to network with my current AEBS
Hello....I can't seem to get a 100% clear answer on this, so I may as well give a try here....
I'm trying to get my old (upgraded) G4 350 AGP to work in my living room as a "family computer". My MacBook Pro is my main machine, which is in my office, and also where the AEBS is located, along with my printer. I'm trying to figure out a way to "wirelessly" get my G4 to work (basically see the internet) in the other room....would I need to just purchase an AE or another AEBS, and send the signal to the G4 via Ethernet? This is what I was hoping to do.....I realize I could purchase an old Airport card off of eBay, but I'd rather avoid this route if at all possible.
Thanks in advance.
MacBook Pro 2.16GHz Intel 2, G4350 MHz AGP graphics w/ upgraded processor Mac OS X (10.4.9)If you prefer to connect your G4, via Ethernet, then the simpliest solution would be to get an AirPort Express Base Station (AX) and set it up as a WDS Remote Base Station, with your AEBS set up as the WDS Main Base Station. (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107454)
With the AX configured as a Remote Base Station, it's Ethernet port will be enabled so you can connect your G4 to it for Internet access.
