Question About Adding Ram from other laptop to T-series Thinkpad

Hi,
I have a question about adding additional RAM. Right now I have a 4gb ram stick in the t510. I have an acer laptop which I do not need and there is a 4GB ram stick onboard (maybe two 2gb ram sticks) there in that older laptop. Would it be possible to add one stick of 2gb ram (or 4gb i need to check if it is 2 or 1) from the acer to the lenovo thinkpad making the total ram in the thinkpad over 4gb????
Thanks in advance

Hi Richk,
Yes, I am using a 64-bit operating system. I am running on windows 7. And as for reported incompatibilities....technically taking a RAM from another laptop and placing it in the laptop should be the same as purchasing a RAM card from ebay or something and putting into the laptop right?

Question about adding tracks from computer not your own

Hi, Before I ask my question I'll just describe the situation. I have a primary computer which is archaic in that it does not have a cd rom drive. Therefore, I have to download mp3's to put them on my playlist because I can't access them through cd. Now, my sister has a computer with a cd-rom drive and an itunes too. However, when I connect to her computer, itunes does not recognize my playlist and pretty much says that I have to erase my playlist in order to create a new one. So, I have to sacrifice the tracks I have in order to upload my cds in my ipod. Now the question which you all probably have guessed: What can I do so that this does not happen? I'd like to put some of my cd's on my ipod because I do like particular albums that is not necessarily available to download. Anyone who can help in bringing light to the situation would be great.

I'm not sure I understand you entirely, but you could put the CDs on the computer with a CD ROM drive and then boot that computer as a firewire drive to the computer without a CD ROM drive and then copy your music over.

Final cut pro make Mac pro kernel panic with RAM from other manufacturers

hi all
if i installed RAM For mac Pro from 667MHz DDR2 fully buffered ECC RAM from other manufacturers
final cut pro (just final cut)
make the machine kernel panic messege
all programs working good (like adobe and other compositing program) but final cut freez the machine and kernel panic
the standard RAMs good

Ahmed:
You can try visiting/searching the Expanding your Power Mac G5 forum. You'll find A LOT of help about RAM issues.
Any RAM brand must work but you maust be sure it follows the MAc specs. Some brand sites have good product locator by computer manufacturer/model (i.e. Kingston and Crucial). In fact there is no Apple branded RAM, they use a lot of different ones.
Inside FCP settings you'll find how to manage the memory that the program use, but that settings depends on the total quantity of memory you have installed, and you didn't post that information.

Question about tranferring data from iPhone 3gs to iPhone 4

I just had a couple quick questions about transferring data from my old phone from my new iPhone 4. The reason i am wondering is because i am worried about whether i will encounter any problems when doing so.
First off i have already sold my phone today, i reset all data and settings from the phone and gave it to my buddy so its gone. I did a full sync and backup yesterday so all the necessary files should be on my computer(windows 7). Now, im basically wondering if i will run into any problems if i restore my iphone 4 from a backup. My 3gs was running 3.1.2 on att. Now i know IDEALLY i would have updated it to iOS 4 before backing it up and used the newest version of itunes, but i did not. Does anyone think this will be a problem for me?
Now with that out of the way, my biggest fear is losing my old data(text messages and notes mainly because i am a pack rat for those type of things) so id like to be SURE that none of my old backups will be deleted in any scenario. The reason i dont just restore it right now is because i want my new phone to be as clutter free as possible. I am going to be putting on here only the apps that i used often and would basically like to transfer over the BARE minimum; texts, notes, and highly used apps... So i guess my main question is can you transfer over only certain things like texts and notes after setting up the phone as a new phone. And if i were to set up the phone as a new phone what would happen to my old backups? Would i be able to selectively restore?
Im afraid that it might not be a possibility to transfer only certain things even though it should be.. i should be able to select a text messages folder and put it on my new phone and be done with it... But anyway i dont want to rant. Can anyone explain to me how this all will work?
ULTIMATE GOAL: Transfer only texts, notes, certain apps(and their data) and NOTHING ELSE.
MOST IMPORTANT THING: Not losing texts and notes. I can deal with putting all the old **** on my new phone and cluttering/slowing it down if i NEED to.
Thank you in advance, sorry for the long post.

If the most important thing for you is keeping old text messages, notes, and voicemail, then you'll need to sync the phone from your existing backup. I know of no other way to access those items.
Once you have synced to the new phone, check that you have those items that were important. Then you can reconnect your phone to iTunes, and change the sync settings to remove the apps or other items you no longer want to keep on the phone.
iPhone backups are stored by iTunes; you can see them by opening your iTunes preferences, clicking on "Devices" and then looking in the window. You can delete old backups from here. I don't know how you can open/read the backups though.
I don't expect you'd have any problems syncing from your old phone's backup, but it's definitely an either/or situation. Since you got rid of the old phone already, it's too late to email yourself your notes, or copy the text messages. Your previous backup is your only solution.

Question about adding/removing lyrics

When I add one of my songs, it already has lyrics "attached". The problem is they are wrong and if i try to change/delete them and sync with my iphone, it doesn't sync. Is there anyway i can remove them from the file?

Question About Adding .TGA

OK,
I used particleIllusion to export a .TGA sequence of an
explosion so that I had Alpha channel... The problem is, when I
import it to flash, i can't control where it is imported to on the
stage... I can't move it because it only moves each slide
individually... I can't resize it either for the same reason... Is
there a way of changing the entire sequence without modifying each
individual frame??

I can't connect to Wi-Fi - keeps timing out. No problem connecting from other laptops / phones. Stopped working after I did a system upgrade. What can I do?

I can't connect to Wi-Fi - keeps timing out. No problem connecting from other laptops / phones. Stopped working after I did a system upgrade. What can I do? I am on OS X Yosemite.

Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Some of these steps are only possible if you have control over the wireless router.
Step 1
Turn Wi-Fi off and back on.
Step 2
Restart the router and the computer. Many problems are solved that way.
Step 3
Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
Step 4
Run the Network Diagnostics assistant.
Step 5
In OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and fix the issues listed in the Summary, if any.
Step 6
Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
Step 7
You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
Potential sources of interference
Step 8
Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
Step 9
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).

Adding Ram from my Macbook Pro

I just recently purchased a 27" iMac i5 2.8 Quad-core with 4 gb of ram. I do a lot of photo editing in lightroom/photoshop and would eventually like to buy some more ram to bring my total to 8, 12, or 16 gb. With the holidays though I just don't have the spare cash, but I do have spare 2x1 gb sticks of ram from upgrading my (late 08) macbook pro. The only catch is the ram is only 1067 MHz DDR3, slightly slower than the 1333 MHz DDR 3 already installed in my iMac .
My question is this, will I be better off staying at 4 gb of 1333 MHz DDR 3, or is adding 2x1 gb sticks of 1067 MHz DDR 3 ram an okay idea?
Thanks in advance for the help,
Troy

totally agree with Ralph !

Overclocking Core i5 750 on MSI GD80 Question about BCLK, RAM, and QPI

Hi,
I am trying to overclock my core i5 750 processor to 3.6 Ghz (default is 2.66 Ghz) and I have an important question about the BCLK I should be setting so that my RAM would run at its default speed of 1600 (G. Skill Ripjaws 4 GB).
Basically, the only speeds I can set the BCLK at, to run the RAM at 1600, are 160 and 200 Mhz. Right now, I have it set at 200 Mhz (160 is not enough to push the i5 to 3.6 Ghz sadly) and with a 20 multiplier, I got 3.6 Ghz on the i5. But here are the questions:
1. My QPI speed is now at 6400 Mhz (far from the default 4800) - is that actually safe?
2. Is 200 BCLK way too high? I haven't seen too many people overclocking using my settings...
Thanks

2. Is 200 BCLK way too high? I haven't seen too many people overclocking using my settings...
"Too high" or not too high is a somewhat pointless question when it comes to overclocking. From a specfication perspective, everything above default clock speeds is too high and so is a memory clock speed of DDR3-1600 (as Intel's specifications define DDR3-1333 as the maximum supported memory speed).

Your RAM will not mind if it is not exactly running @DDR3-1600. There is no necessity to aim for an exact BLCK/RAM Frequency match. Let's say you find a stable spot that will result in a DRAM Speed of DDR3-1578. So what? 11 MHz less will not have any significant impact on the system performance.

Another question about adding music to iPhone

Apologies for yet another question regarding adding music to an iPhone but I am completely stuck.
I bought a new laptop in January (it runs windows 8). I've authorised it and synced my phone to it before. I've used it to add music before.
Lately I've just been buying music directly from itunes on my phone but I wanted to add some music from my older collection that is on an external harddrive.
I've gone through the process of syncing the phone again, which has wiped whatever was on there. I made sure I'd ticked on the "manually manage music" box.
It's put all my purchased music back but it still will not let me drag and drop music from my external harddrive. When I hover over with the file it has "link" but it won't actually send the music to the phone.
Is there a way for me to do this without putting music on to my itunes library? I don't like itunes and I definitely don't want to add the music to my laptop as it defeats the purpose of having an external harddrive! Sorry for such a long-winded explanation.

Just to add... I've now tried adding music to the library (getting desperate here) and it's not letting me do that either. Just says 'link'.
This is the most frustrating thing ever. Why are the simplest of tasks made so difficult? It seems like it only works if you buy the music from the iTunes store.

Hi kec234, welcome to the forum,
the best place would probably be in the Lenovo 3000 & Essential notebooks board; it's the correct board for your system and who knows after searching through it you may find an existing thread on the same subject??

Question about Offset printing from Indesign

Hello everyone, I have a question about printing too a DPX rip platemaker from Indesign. When I print my file to the rip, it seems to bold the text when it should not be bold, I do not know if this is an Indesign or rip error, but if anyone has a solution I would be grateful for any assistance.
I dont know if it's necessary, but the OS with Indesign is Mac OSX, printing to a ripmate on Windows 2000.

Have you applied an outline to the text?
Try unoutlined text
Is the text near an effect like drop shadow or other filter?
Move the text to top layer or above any effects.
Is it just this file or any file?
Need to figure out if it's just this job or all of them or at least let us know.
Have you got the fonts installed at the RIP end, perhaps it's rasterising text that the RIP has not got the font?
You could try exporting to PDF first, that would embed the fonts in the PDF.
Let us know if any of this helps?

Question about adding an index to a column and finding it back

Hi, How do I see in phpMyAdmin that an index is added to a column.(I'm talking about adding an index by clicking on the lightning bolt!) I know how to add an index and see a warning that it's added (only after I add it).
But where do I find it or a sign that it is added later on?!
Thanks!
