Want to fax without a landline

Hi Everyone,
Moving back to NY and OPtimum online looks really attractive for high speed cable internet access. I'd like to not get a landline installed at all. Is this possible? Are there recommended incoming/outgoing fax services through my computer that are pay per fax etc? I would use my all in one to scan in documents to fax out of course.

Services with an introductory free period and then
a monthly fee include those with the ability to send
the fax to someone's fax machine (on phone line)
while you send and receive faxes by email...
Not sure if that is such a fine idea if the other party
also has a high speed internet connection & no
land lines... Try a search: 'fax over broadband.'
The main problem is with having to fax to conventional
facsimile machines or from them; when using a computer
and not using a phone modem/land line configuration.
Since not everyone who uses a fax sends or receives
them with a computer or cellular data phone wireless.
These additional pay services should be unnecessary.
Good luck & happy computing!

If my iPod Touch 5 battery is failing, can I pay Apple to send me a refurbished one before I send them the one with a failing battery? I don't want to go without my ITouch.

If my iPod Touch 5 battery is failing, can I pay Apple to send me a refurbished one before I send them the one with a failing battery? I don't want to go without my ITouch. I really don't want to go without it but I dont want to have to purchase a new one. The battery life is abysmal, and I am reluctant to upgrade my ios system to ios8 because all I ever see are complaints about upgrades killing the battery. I am still on ios6. When I upgraded my macbook pro (which is now DEAD) the battery got worse.
I am just sick of it. I called apple about my itouch battery and the help was terrible. All they were telling me to do was do a restart and UPGRADE TO THE LATEST IOS TO SEE IF THAT SOLVES THE BATTERY PROBLEM. They would not even tell me what to do if that would not work. Very rude.I kept asking and I finally had to find out myself through my own research that they cant replace the battery; instead they send you a refurbished ipod. They never told me that on the phone and they kept giving me the run around when I kept asking them what I should do if the IOS upgrade did not work or made the battery worse. Hopefully someone can answer my initial question. Thanks guys. I have a charger that I sometimes use plugged in to the ipod ( not all the time, I know that is bad for the battery) and I thought my battery life should be better than it is because I sometimes use it on the charger ( it should save the battery).

Not that I know of. You can do the exchange at an Apple store if they have refurbished ones in stock
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I have a Mac G4 with a 10.3.9 OS and I want to update without losing any filters from my Photoshop 7. Should I go to 10,4 or higher?

Why do you need to update at all?
In order to upgrade you will have to purchase a retail copy of either Tiger or Leopard neither of which are easy to come by, and they tend to be a bit expensive. And, there's no assurance that the version of PS you now use will be compatible with a newer version of OS X.

I don't think your mac can handle it... but like the dude above you said... trial and error is usually the best way to find out. Hope this helps!

I want to fax from my mac using a Brother MFC-7220 Printer/fax

I'm currently using a Brother MFC-7220 Printer/Fax machine with my Mac Mini, attached via USB.
It works great as a printer, but I want to fax from within Mac Applications using the 7220.
I tried going "File/Print, then selecting the PDF pull down menu in the lower left corner of the print management window. I selected "Fax PDF..." but the system comes back with a "No Fax Modems Found.." message.
Any suggestions/solutions ?
Thanks

You may need to install the Brother drivers.
By default, Mac OS X only installs the printer drivers, ignoring other features of multi-function devices. By installing the vendor's driver you gain access to the other features.
In this case you should find that installing the driver enables a new printer option - Brother MFC-7220 (Fax) - which can be used to send your fax. So now faxing is as simple as choosing 'Print' and selecting the 'Fax' option from the list of available printers.

Send and receive a FAX without a phone line

Is it possible to send and receive faxes without a phone line. Instead, can I use bluetooth and cell phone? Or, are there any other options?
MacBook Pro 15" Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Yes/No. There are internet options, companies/programs that like internet phone dialers allow you to send faxes over the internet that end up calling actual phones. Most (if not all) charge a fee for this.
As for bluetooth/cellphone, you're better off sticking with internet options. You could use bluetooth if you had a bluetooth device setup to receive and convert but I'm not sure such advices exist and even if they did I'm not sure the value of them. It would be like sending from your laptop while standing next to a fax machine. Cell phones are possible if your phone allows connection via modem which only a handful do. Given a cellphone with modem support and an apple modem, its possible.

I want to print but printer wants to fax

i have a hp officejet 6500 e709 series and i want to print a document but it wants to fax it. How do I rectify this anomaly ?

From the used Application, click File > Print
Then make sure the HP 6500 E709 Series is selected, and not the HP 6500 E709 Series Fax.
As well, enter Control panel, then the printers management
(XP = Printers and Faxes, Vista = Printers, 7Win7 = Devices and Printers)
Make sure the HP 6500 E709 Series is set as default (V mark above), otherwise right-click on it and set as default for future use.
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos thumb up in the post.

Want to sync without loosing a ton of data (again)

I'll apologize in advance for such a long post, but I'm not sure what else to do. iTunes, during my version upgrade, lost months of my personal data.
Question:
I'm wondering if there is a way to back up my data on my phone and be really sure it (my data) is properly backed up? Is syncing the same as creating a backup file? I'm not in the mood to try to backup or sync only to find out that my data is lost again. I've spent hours searching for answers since I'm trying to avoid a repeat.
What I'm trying to do:
I don't want to unleash iTunes to backup and then sync out of fear I'm going to lose some or all of my data. I'd like to backup my phone and be sure it's really backed up, so if my sync sinks me (again), I'll actually be able to recover my data. I try to sync to Windows7's Contact list. iphone's on 4.2.1 and iTunes is on Version 10 I think it's an iphone 3G and I've had it for a couple years.
Background:
I use my phone for a small business where I'm on the road. So I have some contacts, calendar entries, and notes that are pretty important to me and really need it in my phone and not in my computer.
I sync infrequently because of what I listed above combined with the fact that syncing is painful. It creates duplicate contacts, which is a well documented problem on these boards, but with no solutions I can find for my situation. (I use the Windows7 Contact list). iTunes will also neither sync my calendar nor notes, which I can understand, since it's got to be several hundred kilobytes of data which is clearly a challenge for the developers at Apple. I have historically hooked up the phone, agreed to let itunes download and install all it claims it needs, and walked away for a half hour or so. Then I spend another 40 minutes deleting duplicate contacts.
My last sync (2 weeks ago) deleted all my personal information back to January. It involved an iTunes upgrade and I lost some photos, calendar entries, recent call list, notes, etc. I spent 3 hours with Apple tech support only to conclude that the backup file was not stored correctly. Apparently iTunes writes the file then wipes out the phone. At the end of the process, it was unable to restore it (some error said there was already a sync in process, or something like that). The backup folder had the correct date and time stamp, but upon reviewing its contents; it appeared to be incorrect. My data was lost and the Apple tech support apologized.
Now I'm not sure what to do. I may resurrect my palm pilot, since it sync's everything and, in more than 10 years, never lost any of my data. I'm not too keen on carrying around two devices, however it may be better than constantly fighting with my iphone. Sorry for venting.

iTunes updates your iPhone's backup as the first step during the iTunes sync process and you can manually update your iPhone's backup without syncing by right-clicking on your iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list and at the menu window that appears, select Backup.
This link provides the data that is included with the backup or that should be included with the backup, which is substantial.

Understood and I do the same, but what would happen in regards to this data if your iPhone were lost or stolen?
iTunes will also neither sync my calendar nor notes, which I can understand, since it's got to be several hundred kilobytes of data which is clearly a challenge for the developers at Apple.
The iPhone supports syncing calendar events, notes, and contacts with Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 with Windoze. It is enough of a challenge trying to sync this data with the definition of a bloated application that is Outlook, much less trying to do the same with the Calendar app included by Microsoft with Windows as well.
Most the well documented problem with duplicate contacts on this board has to do with those with a MobileMe account who are syncing contacts over the air with the account and syncing contacts direct with a supported address book application on their computer via the iTunes sync process which will cause duplicates on the iPhone.
Are the duplicate contacts caused when syncing contacts with the Windows address book on your iPhone only, or in the Windows address book as well?

Now can you same example for non-mxml programming?
Thank you best regards, SnakeMedia

Dear Star Traveler, Thanks for your reply. I checked out the support document link you provided but all it really did for me was reinforce the idea that I'm not thinking in a helpful manner about how iCloud operates in connection with my Mac as well as devices like my iPad. The mechanism I had used to get photos into iCloud from my iPad was that I had already had them in an album which the system labeled "My Photo Stream". I used the "iCloud" section of the iPad to turn off the iCloud and it asked if I wanted to store the photos in iCloud I think. When I answered yes, that's when the troublesome deed occurred. Luckily it did not delete any photos which I had in any other album nor did it delete any photos which I have in the main "Photos" directory nor in "Camera Roll". All it did was allegedly transfer photos which were in "My Photo Stream" to the iCloud, deleting the photo stream in the process. Naively I then thought that those photos which had been in the photo stream would then appear when I logged into iCloud and searched around. I now believe however that I never did "create" a PHOTO directory in iCloud and maybe that is why they aren't there. However, when I try to do that, I am unable to unless I have iOS 8 and/or Yosemite. Agree or disagree?? But getting back to the way I think about the iCloud, I always thought of it as an external storage back up drive which was independent of any device or computer/Mac. Now, it seems that's not the case AND even worse, files can get deleted without you knowing about it or approving the specific deletion first!! Why is iCloud not compatible with former versions of iOS and OS X??? That does not make sense to me. What would you recommend if I want greater specific control over which files get stored in iCloud and which do not?????

How to fax without a Modem

Is there any way, if one have mac mini without mode, to send faxes via ethernet DSL
thank you

The base mini still comes with modem as standard, and the other models can have it added as a BTO option for $39 - which isn't a bad price for those who need a modem, and seems fair to me given the addition of Airport and Bluetooth, plus the 80Gb drive instead of 40 and 1.42 processor instead of 1.25 - all for the extra $100.
I think we all know and accept that there are many people who either choose to remain with dial up services or who have no option but to do so, but Apple have to draw the line somewhere in terms of what to put in these systems without unduly bumping up the price.

Itunes unblocking itself on my firewall? I do not want automatic connection without my permission how do I fix this

I dont want Itunes to load automatically or to access the internet without asking first. I have tried several times to restrict permissions in the firewall and when I restart the computer itunes has undone by block. What can I do

Good day AMELIASARAH,
One resolution to your issue would be to update your iPhone using iTunes on your computer rather than over the air. This requires much less space on the iPhone as most of the work is done by the computer. See this article for how to do it -
If you need more space for an iOS update - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

How do I set the screen zoom, so that it doesnt change each time I open Firefox. Because I see the webpages in smaller print, and I want them larger , without having to re zoom each time I open Firefox.

I need to know how to set the zoom option under "View" Tab, shere I dont have to re zoom each time I open Firefox. I have a wide screen monitor and generally, when viewing webpages, the web content on any page is confined to center of the page, and I was wondering if there was anyway to permanently set the zoom preferences without having to change them each time i open a webpage.
IE 8 and 9 has a feature to set the magnification and i set mine to 150% which works perfectly for me. I wonder if Firefox has a similar feature.

TonyE
Thanks a lot. I downloaded the Default FullZoom Level add-on. My problem is now a history. thanks a million

I want to fax from my computer, but get a message that I don't have an internal modem. Now what?

I went to print, PDF and then fax PDF. But got a message that I don't have an internal fax. Is there something I need to buy and install?

You need an external USB modem in order to fax. There is no fax modem built-in. This should work.

Can i store my music on my device without using my data in my phone plan streaming from the cloud? How do i put what I want on there without waiting for each song to download from the cloud one at a time?

How can I store the music I listen to on my iphone without streaming it from the cloud and using all my data on my phone plans? How do I dump it on my phone all at once in itunes rather than waiting for each song to download individually from the cloud?

What?? You asked how to get all your music on your phone at once rather than downloading it to your phone from iCloud.
Go to your purchased list in iTunes and download all your music to your iTunes library, as explained in the linked article. Then sync it all to your phone using iTunes you're done. The music will be stored locally on your phone and you won't have to download it again in the future.
