Setting up 3g on a x230t- advice and experience?

Hi,
I am looking for input and advice from others who might have experience with this sort of thing.
I have a x230t arriving soon.  It does not come pre-loaded with a 3g card. However, I know I can install certain WWAN cards, and have watched videos for that. What is unclear to me is if only certain models are upgradeable, or whether all x230t models have the wires waiting for me at the slot, as I've seen in the videos.  Do I acutually have to open up the device and look inside for the wires, just to find out if I can install and activate a WWAN card? Or is there an easier way?
Additionally, does anyone have experience with activating it with ATT? I am unsure if I'll get to add it to my existing data plan like i've done tablet, or if I have to activate it like an entirely new phone?  I'm not up for 30-50$/month for the use of cellular, but 10$ extra on my phone bill is acceptable to me.
Finally, I know some cards are not accepted by the BIOS, right?  Does anyone have a list of accepted ones that I can reference?  Or even better, some advice about which is better?  I'm on ATT, and that's who I'd be running it with.
I consider myself reasonably tech savvy, but I've not done this before with a laptop, and would love some advice/input.  Thanks for your help!!

The os will insert it for you given the subnet and the mask so no you don't need to config it .

  • Safari login with sharepoint- any advice and experience?

    We're trying to use MS Sharepoint to facilitate group work and interactions. However, Safari will not authenticate properly: the login dialog keeps popping back up. Camino and Firefox both work, but it's an inconvenience and marginalization for Mac users to have to switch browsers for just this aspect of their work (I'm herding a pretty "diverse" group of cats at a University...). Does anyone have experience with this? Active Directory is involved and I've heard that a somewhat similar problem hits people using Vista. I'd suspect this is a Microsoft issue, but am wondering if anyone has found a workaround that allows use of Safari.

    No solutions that I can find and I've searched all around the net. When I tested with Safari, just hit cancel after you log in once and refresh the page. From that point on it will work okay with Safari. Then again, just ditch Safari and use Firefox. It's what I use most of the time, except when I go here on Apple support site.

  • General Advice and Question on Saving Book Files

    I am still relatively new to FrameMaker. I attended a one on one course 12 months ago for two days. When I attended this course I was totally oblivious to the features of FM, it was totally foreign software. I had looked through the User Guide and as part of the course received Classroom in a Book. I have not spent a lot of time on FM in the last 12 months as I still have to produce manuals in the old format. The changeover is a huge project.
    I have searched this forum many times and found the answers I have needed to many of my questions and learnt so much that I had not fully understood.
    I would just like to confirm now with the users of this forum that I am going about my project in converting to FrameMaker in the right way and I have a question on saving books etc.
    I have Operator and Service manuals for four machines (with variations between each machine and then variations between each of those basic models). Parts of the Operator and Service manuals are interchangeable.
    I want to be able to single source my material and I am setting up an Excel spreadsheet which will breakdown each section of both manuals. Once completed when a machine is ordered the Excel spreadsheet will produce the details of the files needed to complete a book (manual). There will still be work needed on the book files before the manual can be produced.
    My files are double sided with each Chapter starting on the right hand page and I am using variables and conditional text. The manuals contain columns, graphics, tables etc.
    I have done test runs and have managed to accomplish the layout in PDF that I want for the final manuals which will be printed. I am only working on four machines at this stage, once this is set up others will be added or I may have to set up another lot of single source files.
    Am I on the right track?
    My specific question is that currently I use master files for each machine which are updated as needed. These files are then saved to another folder and identified by a Serial Number and Customer. The serialised files are then saved to PDF. I would like to continue this process as in the future the manuals for that specific machine may need to be revised (i.e. Rev. 0 to Rev. 1 and so on).
    So basically I have all my single source files from which I produce a book file and save it to an appropriate folder which identifies its Serial Number and Customer. I don’t know if I have missed something very simple but I want these serialised books to remain as is, I do not want them updated when I make a change to my single source documents. I want to be able to produce my manuals for any number of machines from my single source without changing the book files that have already produced a manual. Is this possible?
    I am using FrameMaker 7.2 b144.
    I hope this posting provides a clear view of what I am trying to achieve.
    Many thanks in advance for any advice and answers that are provided.
    PS This is the first time I have ever posted to any forums.

    It sounds like you want to be able to open the book files and print without updating...
    This isn't the case. Each book will need to be updated before output.
    The reason is that your pagecount (and thus any toc, index, and xref's) will be different in each book and thus will need to be  updated.
    The books will still need a opening and updating prior to output, but you could easily (cheaply) script that process so that you could batch output the books.

  • SharePoint 2013 Snippets usage advice and help

          
    SharePoint 2013 Snippets usage advice and help  
    I am new to SharePoint Site development.  I am creating a simple public website to look similar to their old one.
    I have created a masterpage that looks OK using the design manager, and also a page layout. I have got the website looking half OK.
    I seem to have difficulties all the time when it comes to snippets - and finding specific help on how to use each individual one.
    So the main question - where would you advise I go to get help?
    The current snippet issue is:
      > regarding to top navigation menu
      > I have inserted one into the masterpage - and got it working
      > However it will not let me do submenus when I go into Edit Links
      > But I then went to site settings and did the edit links from there
      > It let me there - but it's a different menu !! (I now have two)
      > I can't see this second menu from within the snippets - it defaults to one that does not allow sub menus
      > So how do I change the snippet to look at the menu I was able to edit
    But more generally - when I get this kind of issue, where to I look for the solution?
    Thanks in anticipation

  • The voice that was on when I first set up my ipad came back on and now I have to double click to get into my apps and can't use my apps because her voice is always talking.  How do I make her voice go away and my IPAD work like it should.

    The voice that was on when I first set up my ipad came back on and now I have to double click to get into my apps and can't use my apps because her voice is talking.  How do I make the voice stop and my IPAD work again. 

    If you've turned VoiceOver on then see if triple-clicking the home button turns it off, and then change what Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home is set to.
    Otherwise, via 'the touch to select double-tap to activate' process you need to go into Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and turn it off
    The manual (http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad) also says that you should be able to switch voice-over off by connecting to your computer's iTunes :
    Turn VoiceOver on or off in iTunes: Select iPad in the iTunes sidebar. In the Options section of the Summary pane, click Configure Universal Access. Select VoiceOver, then click OK.
    So select Configure Universal Access at the bottom of the Summary tab and set Seeing to Neither

  • Why can't I set my downloaded .dm ringtones as text and email notifications?

    I have an HTC Incredible 2;  I paid for and downloaded several ringtones from the Verizon store, two of which I wanted to specifically use as the text and email notification sounds.  I then had the already discussed problem of not being able to find the newly downloaded ringtones immediately, but from the postings on here and the Adriod forums, I followed the directions to set up the folders titled Ringtones, Notifications, and Alarms on my sdcard, and moved the downloaded ringtones into their respective folders.  When I opened up the Personalize menu, under Sounds I was immediately able to find the ringtones I'd placed in the ringtone folder, but my phone wouldn't recognize the ringtons I'd placed in the Notifications folder.
    I downloaded the app Zedge, downloaded specific Notification sounds (.mp3, and they work).  I also downloaded .mp3 ringtones and then moved them into the Notifications folders, and THAT worked.  The problem seems to be that these are .dm files?  Is my phone unable to read .dm files as Notification sounds?  Or is there something I missed?  Something else I can do?
    I looked all over for software that will convert .dm files to .mp3, found a suggestion calling for the deletion of a couple of the lines of code from within the .dm file using Notebook ++, but that didn't work.  I don't remember seeing anywhere in the store that these ringtone files come in the protected .dm filetype; that many players will not be able to play them, and that I won't be able to use them for notification sounds?
    Ay one have any suggestions?  Verizon: am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Usually when you purchase ringtones from the Verizon store, you can only use them as ringtones. Since you have a smartphone, an app would be the best bet. You can find almost any song you're looking for in a free ringtone app, there's no need to purchase them.

  • I somehow set up 2 separate apple id's and now i cant consolidate them

    Apparently I set up 2 seperate Apple ID's and 2 I cloud accounts.  I want to consolidate in order to synch all my devices

    You can't consolidate accounts. Decide which AppleID you want to use for iCloud and which one for iTunes and stick with them and use the single ID on all devices. Your iTunes ID does not need to be the same as your iCloud ID.

    I have a IPhone 5 and Iphone 5s, each phone is activited with a different service provider. Both are set up with the same account ID and running IOS 8.0.2. When the phones are connected to the same Wifi at home, both phones will ring when someone call in to one of the phone.  Hence you do not know exactly which line the caller called.  If you answered using the wrong phone, then anyone calling the other number will not get through.  Anyway to solve this problem?

    Hey David Koh TP,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like your devices are set up to use continuity together. Specifically, it sounds like you are signed into the same Apple ID in FaceTime, and have iPhone Cellular Calls enabled. To resolve your issue, simply disable this setting:
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6337
    Turn off iPhone cellular calls
    To turn off iPhone Cellular Calls on a device, go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
