Rental Car Company Rewards. Which do you use? Or do you use?

I would to get the community's opinion on this. I do not use rental cars too often but I do use them when I fly. I hate to waste rewards with anything so I have been looking into trying to pick one company and stick with them. However, I have found that most of the time, its a lot cheaper to book your cars with your flight than it is to do it on your own through a certain company. For example, I was going to fly out to Seattle for a few days for a little vacation. I looked up rental cars information on Hertz and it was going to be about 500 for the days which is crazy! Then I booked a flight to Nashville for a few days and ended up booking the car after my flight and for 5 days, my car rental there was only 125. Just curious what other travelers do for car rentals Do you use rewards through them? Do you book ahead? Do you book at airports? Thanks in advance!

CHoice is up to you - I use Panoramio and google earth because I like the way they work and integrate and I use Google earth to plan trips and see where I went
You also might take a look at the ATP Photo FInder - http://photofinder.atpinc.com/ - it is a neat, small stand alone GPS receiver that will add the GeoCodeing to your photos without the computer - CostCo.com recently had them on sale for $80 with free shipping

    Someday - and no one knows when that day will come - maybe all applications will be able to take advantage of the Retina display. But for the present, not many do: including all Adobe applications. There was a demo of Photoshop at the Apple World Wide Developers Conference of Photoshop running at native Retina resolutions but no one at Adobe in marketing is saying when, if or how the upgrade may be coming. It could be a week, it could be a year, it could be 2-3 years. No one knows. And only Apple app's (for the main part) are really utilizing the native Retina display.
    I've seen some demos of some applications (Apple's) that take advantage of the Retina display and they're awesome. But in actually working in the here-and-now I've heard quite a few gripes, particularly on the Photoshop forum, of menus looking pixelated and/or 'blurry' so I'm not quite ready to jump into the Retina display boat just now. Don't get me wrong - others have ad are very, very pleased with their selection. But until Retina displays are available on larger monitors, the maximum work area that you're going to be able to use is 15" - and that's simply not enough room for full-blown graphic design. Then there's the cost factor - for the $4,000+ you spend for a completely full-blown Retina kit, you can get a standard MacBook Pro, 16 GB of RAM, a fast SSD and even the Apple Thunderbolt Display for the same amount.
    The standard MacBook Pro isn't better than the Retina display: it's just different. And I think (and this is only my opinion - other graphic designers should feel free to jump in here) that it's the best computer that you can get for your specific purposes. And, towards that goal, I have to recommend a very good external monitor (there's nothing more annoying than having to use InDesign in a single-page mode rather than side-by-side because your monitor isn't big enough).
    Remember that this is only my opinion and that others might jump in with their own. But I was in the electronic pre-press business for more years than I care to admit and we always - always - worked with at least 19" monitors (and that's back when dinosaurs actually ruled the world).
    I hope that others will jump in with their comments. I'm going to follow this thread and see!
    Good luck,

  • I have a company BB which is terrible and want to buy a 3GS and use my BB SIM card in the iPhone. Will this work?

    I have a company BB which is terrible and want to buy a 3GS and use my BB SIM card in the iPhone. Will this work?

    Depending on the model of the Blackberry & the carrier.
    if the blackberry didn't have 3G or a 3g sim card (depending on the carrier), then the SIM is probably too old to use and would require a new SIM.
    The data plans on some carriers specify a blackberry data plan and an iPhone data plan, and they are not interchangable, so the carrier would have to switch that.
    Usually since iphones come with a SIM preinstalled, some carriers may tell you the SIM card can't be transferred between an iphone and another device.

  • If you are attempting to update using a Mac or PC with which you do not normally sync

    what happens when "If you are attempting to update using a Mac or PC with which you do not normally sync", & they say in step 2 or 3 in order not to loose your stuff "If you are updating your iOS device on a computer with which you do not normally sync , or if you disconnect your device before the sync process is complete, you may notice that some media content that was previously on your device is no longer there. You can restore this content by syncing with the Mac or PC with which you normally sync."
    now what if the pc that was originally used to sync my ipod , has corrupt or  bad systems files that are causing it from working correctly...? when i plug it in to the o.g. operating sysytems (win xp) it doesnt ever recognize or discover the ipod through itunes.  the pc will pop up the "cameras been plugged in, what would you like to do...?" but nothing thru itunes.  now if i reboot & run the windows 7 operating system w/itunes that has backed my ipod before & synced a few times as well, but not the o.g. op system used from the beginning (the very initial set up done on the ipod) it works fine, but DOES give me the warning "updating to 5.0 willdelete some of your apps & media, including ...  ....will only preserve contacts, calenders," ....etc.
    MY HUGE CONCERN IS if i do hit update & go through w/it, & not having been able to sync it to the one normally used to sync my ipod, will that back up i made be able to restore my game seetings, GAME SAVES, & data achievement type information....?
    please, i'm very hesitant to go through w/it, so if you can please help me out here & let me know asap.....i canimagine you're all busy busy, so  i thank you for your time here w/this

    Not that hard. One the computer you are using do the following:
    - Transfer iTunes purchases.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music using a third-party program like one of those discussed here.
    Copy music
    - If you have synced photos you need a paid program like TouchCopy or PhoneView
    - When all the media in on the computer, connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    That computer is now your syncing computer. Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps or music.

  • How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    How can you keep your iPhone 4 (using it as my car's iPod) staying on the Audible app?  When I leave the car and return to continue hearing a book, it has switched to iTunes.

    The first time an iPhone is connected to iTunes that is used to sync with another iPhone or iOS device, you are prompted to transfer the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device or to set up the iPhone as a new iPhone.
    The former does as provided - it transfers the backup for the other iPhone or iOS device to the iPhone replacing all data on the iPhone that is included with the backup being transferred. The latter does nothing allowing you to make your various selections for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    This is designed to be done right away with a new iPhone.
    If you don't have a backup for the iPhone with iTunes on your computer and don't have an iCloud backup that hasn't been updated since choosing to transfer the backup for your iPod Touch to the iPhone, the data that was on the iPhone is gone.

    and now, when i tried to check again my network preference below the airport tab is showing a message that
    "my airport does not have an IP address and cannot connect to the internet!"
    then after seconds it will goes back to the first message that

  • Which  kind of FireWire Camera do you use with Podcast Capture software?

    Hi,
    i have a little question to ask you.
    Could you tell me what kind (product/model) of FW camera you use in order to record video with
    Podcast Capture 2 ?
    we had verified that some FW cameras give problems during acquisition, in the details Podcast Podcature stops automatically the recording giving this error "QTErrorMediaChanged
    The recording has been automatically stopped because the format of the input media changed or the media samples were invalid."
    Thanks

    I've found that PC capture is a bit buggy. For me, sometimes it won't recognize the camera that's attached to the computer. I know that it's not the camera, cause if I quit PC Capture and launch quicktime, then do a video capture, it sees the camera fine. Also, it seems to be 100% reliable.
    So I use it. When you're done recording, you hit stop, then click the pulldown menu ->share->Podcast Capture
    It's an extra step or two, but it's not too complicated for the teachers at my school who have difficulty identifying when their network cables been pulled from the wall when the clue is "My Internet Doesn't Work."
    As to your question, Sony.
    Get a cheapy DV camera. One that takes a tape. If you get one that uses a hard drive or DVD media, I've found that you're asking for trouble even if you can get it to work.
    You can defeat the auto off feature on all Sony Camera's by removing the tape. For whatever reason, if you have a tape in the camera and just leave it on, it'll power off after a bit. I guess it wears down the drum or something. Take the tape out and it'll stay on indefinitely.
    Hope it helps!

  • You are not registered to use this service

    We have everything with BT including a new TV box with netflix etc, which is currently at the end of the 14 day cooling off period. If the following problem isn't resolved today I will be considering cancelling the TV contract and leaving BT all together.
    Our phone was working ok on the 15/4/2015. I tried to dial a local number last night (16/4/2015) to hear 'you are not registered to use this service please contact your service provider'. I dialled again with the area code, same thing. Also with national and mobile calls. We can receive incoming calls. I rang the Indian call centre who said there is no problem with the line or the account (which is in credit) it must be the handset. I am waiting for them to ring me back but having searched the problem online I think this will be to no avail. I have read about prefixing phone numbers with 1280 and this has worked when trying to ring my own mobile, so it can't be a problem with the handset, can it?
    I've seen it could be a problem with Indirect Access IDA being removed from my account (no idea how this might happen). I also know that there was a major outage last week (around 6/4/2015) in our area which led to the freeview HD channels not being available. I had to reset our router which cleared the problem but were Openreach in our area doing something to the exchange boxes etc?
    I need this problem sorting out A.S.A.P. please.

    The fact that if you use 1280 it allows successful calls suggests your line is set as CPS , carrier pre select, if this has just happened it suggests a CPS provider has taken your 'line' for calls if not for line rental, but it's not properly set up otherwise calls would terminate it would just be billed by the mystery CPS provider
    Have you had any approach by company's that sell this product ?, sometimes ISP's who's product includes calls can use CPS, if not, and you haven't been 'slammed' you need BT to set your line as non CPS , so BT handle your calls automatically without using 1280
    This should be easy to get done, but the drones that answer the calls probably won't have a clue, hence the 'it must be your handset' nonsense they come up with, report the line faulty,don't accept an appointment, and insist they sent the problem to what was once called BT Operate, they look after the telephone exchange equipment and it's 'data',

  • Which Version of Windows 7 Should I use?

    I hve a fairly new Macbook Pro. Mid 2012 Version just before the new display came out. My question is, which version of Windows 7 should I use? I've noticed that I can purchase either the 32Bit or 64Bit version, but I am not sure and don't want to load something that might be bigger than I need. I'll only be using Windows to run The Sims 3. This means over 9 expansion packs+ and their EA store content.
    Here is what I am running on my mac:
    Model Name:          MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacBookPro9,2
      Processor Name:          Intel Core i5
      Processor Speed:          2.5 GHz
      Number of Processors:          1
      Total Number of Cores:          2
      L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
      L3 Cache:          3 MB
      Memory:          4 GB
      Boot ROM Version:          MBP91.00D3.B08
      SMC Version (system):          2.2f38
      Serial Number (system):          C1MHN1TNDTY3

      Sudden Motion Sensor:
      State:          Enabled
    As you can tell this isn't a higher end Macbook Pro, as it was a gift, but I am unable to play the game without it crashing since they do not have an updated patch for Mac users - and it is very unlikely that they will even care to update the patch. This seems to be the only guarenteed fix. I appreciate any help I can get, I just need responses soon so I can take advantage of the low prices for Windows 7 before they run out.

    Microsoft will be supporting Windows 7 with full updates for another two years, so you won't have to worry about supplies running out any time soon.

  • I need an R7 version of my company logo which was created as a .AI file on CS6

    I need an R7 version of my company logo which was created as a .AI file on CS6

    Uggh. That won't work. I don't even know which version of AI last allowed saving so far back. CS6 only allows the AI 88 format and even that is probably merely a concession to the myriad of 3D, CAD, milling/ cutting and whatever programs that use it to import vector files on the smallest common denominator. You will definitely need anotehr version of AI inbetween or another program to save even further back...

  • I have a company phone which i have locked and is stuck on the activation screen

    I have a company phone which i have locked and is stuck on the activation screen

    If you were given an ID and password by your IT department, it's their problem. If you created one yourself, you can retrieve it at https://iforgot.apple.com/appleid.
    There's nothing anyone else can do about it.
    If your IT department handed it to you without clearing the iCloud account that was already set up on the phone before doing so, and you didn't even try to turn it on, just plugged it in and restored it, which updated it to iOS 7, then it's activation locked using the account that was already on it. If it's company owned, they will have to take the phone and proof of ownership to Apple to have it reset.

  • Which website builder is the closest in use to iweb?

    I am thinking of leaving iweb before it leaves me.  Which website builder is closest in use to iweb?  Has anyone used Sandvox or RapidWeaver?  Are these close?  Is something better/easier/closer to iweb?  I'd also want it to be easy to upload to a third party host and as easy as iweb to edit the contents.  Thanks.

    Dreamweaver is probably not the way to go, as it is very expensive and quite hard to learn.
    I have looked at both RapidWeaver and Sandvox and don't particularly like them - you can't start from a blank page and it is not easy to drop and drag items around like it is in iWeb.
    Look at something like Freeway Express that is available in the Mac App Store - you can start with a blank page here and this is probably nearer to iWeb.  It is certainly cheaper than RapidWeaver.
    Also, have a look at Flux 3 that is also available in the Mac App Store.  A little harder and more expensive than Freeway.
    You then have other choices such as Content Management Systems such as Drupal and Joomla - you can use these if you have hosting with a company or you could try http://www.wordpress.com where you can build a site and it will be published on the WordPress servers, but you can also pay extra to add a domain name. Although WordPress is really for blogs you can build your whole site with it and you can have your blog too.
    Also have a look at http://www.weebly.com - this is an online solution where you can create a website and have a blog and there are shopping cart facilities too.  There are different levels that you can pay for where you can add your domain to your site etc.
    There are a lot of possibilities out there, but in the end you just need to look at what is best for you.
