Planning to buy a New Computer But Afraid

I am planning to buy a new Laptop. I'm afraid that my applications will be deleted especially games that have saved data in my iPod Touch. For Musics and Stuff i'm not worried as I can organize again in my new iTunes on my new laptop. Any solution for this? I've search online but no useful respond to my problem

Did you see my post to you in that other thread?

Also. Don't get rid of your old PC before you make sure everything is working OK on the new one. This seems basic, but you would not believe the number of folks who do this.
If you keep the old PC you can always keep using it until the new one's setup is perfect.
Just a thought, to make you less afraid!

I do not plan to buy a new computer. Will I still be able to use Firefox on my MacMini PowerPC G4 OS X 10.4.11?

Your company has said it will no longer provide updates or support for older OS and PowerPCs. I want to know if I need to use another web browser that will be compatible with my MacMini PowerPC G4 OS X 10.4.11. I am not planning to purchase another "updated" computer just to be able to use Firefox, so I need to know my options. Computers are too expensive to replace if they are still in good condition and mine is still working for me.

I think the supports end latest days of April, see if you like, TenFourFox (from Mac Users) for PowerPC's running Mac 10.4.11 & 10.5.8

Can iPad charge in recovery mode (iTunes Logo Usb Logo)Mine is stuck there due to my computer not being able to update it (Errors) I plan on buying a new computer and wonder can me leaving it on charger charge it,keep in mind my charger isn't stock.

Facts:
1.Cheap sync cable from Fry's [*****]
2.stuck in recovery just died from being unable to cut it off.
3.When powered up it goes to apple logo then iTunes recovery connect logo.
4.Will not connect to computer due to low charge.
5.Cuts off in seconds.

I searched the iPod Touch forum for "iphone in recovery mode" and it appears there are two possible solutions:
- Place the iPod in DFU mode and then restore it>

Can I buy a new computer with Snow Leopard?

I tried Lion but I was very disappointed. Since I am planning to buy a new computer I would like to know if I can have Snow Leopard on it. On the Store I see "Lion included" everywhere and no option to have the previous OS version.

Thanks a lot Thomas. That's unbelievable and it is really disappointing.
To answer your question what I did not like was:
- not to be able to customize the interface (e.g. up/down buttons in finder scroll bars, uncustomizable finder's side bar)
- useless new features (e.g., launchpad - I do not need to use my laptop/desktop as if it were an iPad)
- loss of programs (e.g, front row)
- mission control is beautiful, but expose was helpful and I need the latter
- versions and automatic save are not needed to me but I did not find a way to disable them. It looks they make my system slower
- my macbook became generally slower, but I could cook eggs on it. Unfortunately I need a fast laptop and not a stove
I hoped I could downgrade the OS, but it is not the case, so this time I am going to buy a Linux box. Hopefully next OS will be better.

Trying to set up my account on my new computer, but CC only will let me buy new plan. How do I transfer account?

I just bought a new computer and am trying to move my CC acct over, but CC only will let me buy an additional plan, not transfer the existing plan. How do I transfer? Thank you!

Aloha Helzo,
Not sure if it's solved or not. I did have to uninstall all my CC from the old computer before I was allowed to install on the new computer, but it still kept telling me I had to buy the programs. I'll just watch and see if I get double-billed. I should know within a couple of weeks. If I do, then I will try and resolve it through the people in the billing department. that's how I ended up having to resolve it last time I changed computers.

I plan on buying a new I Pad wit wifi and cell from Apple. But I don't want to select a cell carrier right now. Q 1: Do I have to select a carrier at purchase? and Q 2, In the meantime will I be able to get on line at home using my Cox Internet wi fi? Thanks.

Thanks for the help. Now I can feel comfortable in not having to sign up for cellular when I buy, esp. Since I'll be using my new IPad mostly at home on my Cox wi fi. Then I can see, in using the i pad, how often I'd actually use the cellular, and where. This can help decide which type of cell plan I get. Small problem it may seem, but a very helpful answer. Thanks.

I received LR 5 for Christmas but have not downloaded it yet on my computer. I have had LR 3 for about 4 years. I am due to buy a new computer soon but need to know how many licenses/downloads I will get before downloading LR 5 on my current computer. I may also purchase a laptop in the next year so that would require 3 licenses altogether (current iMac, future iMac, future macbook).

You have one license.
You can download and install it on an infinite number of computers, as long as it is only installed on two of your computers at any one time, and in use on only one computer at any given time.
So in your case, current iMac, that's would mean its installed on one computer, no problem. Future iMac and future MacBook ... so if you uninstall from current iMac and install on Future iMac and future MacBook, it's now installed on two computers at a time, no problem, as long as you're not using Lightroom on both simultaneously. And if after that, you got two new computers and uninstalled Lightroom from the previous two, you're still good, it's only installed on two computers at any one time.

Help me buy a new computer suitable for Arch

Hello all Arch users.
About 1½ years ago, a mate convinced me to try out Arch Linux. It was about the same time as I also bought myself a TFT monitor. I've grown rather fond of Arch since then, and refuse to use anything else (except at work where I have to use Windoze).
But I've also been having some eye-problems for the last year or so, and I'm blaming partly my Phillips 190S monitor, and partly backlight/brightness settings in Arch, which I have been unable to change. Last thursday these eye-problems accelerated and gave me so much trouble I was unable to use a computer or TV or even go outside for days. I can't live a life that boring! :-| I have to be able to use my computer 25 hours a day.
I've searched a bit on the forum and found that I'm not the only one having some eye-problems with Arch. One solution apparently is to use xbacklight command, which just doesn't work on my system. I found another graphics-card which I tried, but it used the same drivers, so still no xbacklight command. Anyway, I don't want to make a big story out of it either, since I've decided to buy a new computer and monitor now. I want a low-noise system anyway, so....
The monitor will be some expensive stuff that should be very kind to the eyes, so I'm pretty sure that part can't be better. But should you have a recommendation for a great monitor that's kind to the eyes, do share.
I'm thinking that the hardware otherwise might not be compatible with Arch for reasons I'm sure I wouldn't know about. Also, I'm interested in knowing if there's any graphics-cards that suits Arch better than others. And finally, my Arch system is a little broken, and a fresh install probably isn't a bad idea. (I'm no Linux hardcore user, but I definitely know I prefer any Linux distro over Windoze).
So I decided to put down the stuff I'm thinking of getting, and maybe someone will tell me if they know of any problems with that hardware and Arch, or maybe recommend me something else.
MSI G31M LGA775 1333FSB Bulk MAT G31M, 4xSATA
Intel Core 2 Duo E4600, 2.40GHz, 800FSB
Ram Geil 2048 MB DDR-II PC6400 KIT
Samsung S223 DVDRW-SA/18/18/8/SATA
Samsung 250GB SATA II Harddisk
NorthQ NQ-6803 52-in-1 Cardreader
There's no graphics-card on that list, because there's a built-in one one the motherboard, and I don't really need it for games, but rather system-development and such. But if you believe that a certain graphics-card will improve picture quality, or be more kind to the eyes, then do tell me. (I doubt it, but if you think so, lemme know).
Any other advises regarding brightness and be-kind-to-your-eyes-stuff is also welcome. So far I've installed www.sharpfonts.com, but it's too soon to say if it helps.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the answers.
I'll definitely look into that flourescent lighting thingy, although I think/thought I had enough light around me already.
I have also tried having brightness at 0, and even contrast at 0 also. Also using the nvidia settings.
Anyway, it would seem I've found one of the reasons. Apparently, for some weird reason, Arch hasn't offered me 60hz, but rather lower odd numbers such as 53hz. So I've been using a rather lower frequency, which logically should explain at least some of the reason.
While Windows lets me go as high as 75hz with this current 17" monitor I've tried instead of my 19" monitor, Arch won't even let me have 60hz. I've tried various xorg.conf settings, and even got one mailed to me which doesn't change anything. So that's two monitors I've tried where Arch doesn't deliver the hz I want, but where Windows does fine and more. That can't be right. I'm using the nvidia drivers, and have tried two graphics cards.
I'm buying a better monitor regardless though, something that's extra kind to the eyes somehow. I'm thinking 19-22" with some fancy techniques to reduce whatever it tough on the eyes. Maybe a fresh install of Arch will help getting the hz needed. I need to do that anyway on the new computer.
I also tried booting Ubuntu from a CD to check how that seemed, and while the Ubuntu desktop and fonts did seem more calm and eye-friendly, I must admit I'd been looking at it too much at that time to be sure I wasn't just kidding myself.

Help me buy a new computer please :)

Hi. I gonna buy a new computer soon.

anim8,
I do like the K8N-Sli Plat.
Take Care,
Richard
Thanks alot for reply
What i fear with K8N-Sli Plat is that its older than K8N-Sli-F, and maybe more faulty. I dont know, but if K8N-Sli-F is newer, MSI has maybe corrected some problems.. i dont know :/
What is the most popular card atm? I really want a card that i can get support on, and thats why i dont like Sli-K8N-F much, because its new, and new cards often got new problems too.
I looked a lot at Neo-4 Plat too, but just before i should buy i saw that almost all hardware-stores in Denmark where i live, is out of stock, and they will not get them again because MSI has stopped to produce them. I dont know if this is coerrect, but if no hardware-stores in Denmark will get the card at store again, their must be a problem right?

Had to buy a new computer, went to install my old photoshop cs and it won't let me activate it! don't this people have phone numbers????

help please.... I HAD TO BUY A NEW COMPUTER, OLD ONCE CRASHED. OF COURSE I LOST EVERYTHING. I'M NOW TRYING TO INSTALL FROM MY OLD DISC PHOTOSHOP CS ... IT WILL NOT LET ME ACTIVATE!!!! I CAN'T FIND A PHONE NUMBER WHERE I CAN TALK TO ANYONE!!! WHAT DO I DO?????? I'M JUST THANKFUL I SAVED ALL MY PICS ON A DISC BUT I REALLY NEED MY PHOTOSHOP, IT'S OLD, BUT STILL WORKS! CAN ANYONE HELP ME?

Adobe shut down the activation server for CS2 and earlier a couple of years ago. In its place, they made available a new non-activation version of CS2. As an existing CS owner, you're entitled to download it.
Download and install the non-activation CS2 from Error: Activation Server Unavailable | CS2, Acrobat 7, Audition 3
Use the new non-activation serial number on that page. Your existing serial number will no longer work.
PS I presume you're using Windows. The CS2 version will not install or run on modern Intel-based Macs.

I recently had to buy a new computer and want to transfer my playlists to my new computer

I recently had to buy a new computer and want to move my playlists from my old one. The playlists include both purchased tracks and tracks uploaded from my cd collection. My old os is Windows XP and my new os is Windows 8 if that is of any relevance to a possible solution. I do not have an external hard drive but do have a memory stick if it is possible to load the individual playlists onto it.
