Stupid question: Can I stan TC on its side?

I have a TC 500Gb. Can I stand it on its side without damaging the router or HD or does it need to stand on its 'feet' (ie flat)?

Basically all iMac owners have their internal HDDs on its side. Just don't try to hide it in between some books or something as TC NEEDS room to cool as it can get quite warm.
Check out the link below to see how orienting TC would affect the interior. The antennae appear to be on 3 sides.

  • Can airport extreme sit on its side, or must it lie flat?

    Have a recent Airport Extreme. Limited counterspace for new printer. Wondered if I can sit Airport Extreme on its side, or must it lie flat for ventilation or optimum reception. Thanks, BK

    The Extreme works best when placed horizontally for both reception and cooling. However, it can be placed vertically and a number of vendors provide stands or brackets to support this.

  • Can a G5 run on its side, can it be used horizontally?

    I have a fully functional dual 2 ghz G5 tower and was wondering if it can function on its side? Or, does it have to be vertical?

    Not a G5 but Mac Pro, only issue is whether the optical drive is designed (with a lip) to hold media in place. Otherwise, shouldn't matter or be different. I've had mine this way for nearly 3 yrs, sometimes upright as well but easier to get at parts.
    Just my take on this and it has been asked a couple times, but can't recall seeing it mentioned in G5 forum.

  • Can Mac MIni operate on its side

    I use Mac Minis a lot for kiosks. My kiosk designer is wondering if the computer can sit on its side. I can't find anything in literature that says it has to sit flat. Any ideas?

    David
    What are you using for your kiosk app? I too am looking at deploying mac based kiosks (either imacs or macminis hooked up to touch screens coverted by troll touch) for a retail client.
    For an app the only (and seemingly best) app found so far is wkiosk from www.app4mac.com .
    Thanks

  • Stupid question: can't add classes to .nib in IB

    I only looked at XCode many years ago, and then only briefly, so I'm probably missing something really obvious :}
    When I've created a new class in XCode, and drag the .h file to the .nib window in IB, it refuses to add it. It does show the little green + showing that it's intending to do it, but then it doesn't.
    This has been driving me nuts for the past hours, so any pointers will be appreciated very much!
    Alex

    If you are using Interface Builder 3.0, after you drag a header file into a .nib, there won't be feedback.
    But if you open the sixth tab of the inspector, the one with an info icon, under Class Identity is a drop-down list of available classes, you will find the custom class corresponding to the aforementioned header file in the list.

  • This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?

    This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?

    And I meant go to the apple store physically without preordering it online, and I meant the Southampton one. So could I just stroll in apple store and buy a iPhone 5 in Southampton apple store and buy the iPhone 5 straight away? Because I didn't want to have to wait? I just want to go in and buy it and go out with it, if you guys get what I mean? And felipeV if it is in stock could I just buy it and leave with my iPhone 5?

  • Stupid question, I know, but after years of using Firefox, on this one I can't find the Page Reload icon?? Please help.

    In the past, when I want to refresh a page, I've simply gone to the page reload icon on the toolbar. On the new version, I can't fin the reload icon. Sorry I know this is a very stupid question,, but I just can't find that reload icon. The toolbar is a lot different from previous versions, but I'm sure tht pesky icon must be there somewhere!!

    Hi merren,
    Not a stupid question at all :) You should take a look at [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/common-questions-after-upgrading-firefox-36 this article with common questions after upgrading].
    You could also benefit from the looking at the article on [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-customize-toolbars customizing the tool bar]. That will show you not only how to verify that you have the refresh button, but give you options on where it lives as well.
    Hopefully this helps!

    im trying to make a purchase on itunes and its asking for my security question and i dont remember them its been years since i made this account how can i reset them

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • HT1920 You have $25.00 of mine that I can't use it  And I am MAD,  You as    stupid questions  for ID

    You have $25.00 of mine and I can't use it.  You ask stupid questions for ID . I would like my money back since I can't use it.
    since I can't remembver the ID  Bonnie  I am MAD

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    If you can't remember your answers to your questions then if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    Had me stumped for a while too ...
    On the screen that presents all your "Blank" documents, simply touch the word "Blank" under the preview (not the actual preview) and you'll get a dialogue to name your document.

    this may sound like a stupid question,,,but can i downlaod other programmes to my ipad, and use them like i would on a pc/net book ?

    No.
    It is not a replacement for a computer.
    It mirrors the selected content of your computer.
    The only programs that can be loaded on an ipad are those found in the app store.
