We have a satellite connection that restricts our download amount per day. Since watching videos on YouTube and viewing Facebook photos online counts as downloads, is there any way I can see how much each web page is in terms of MB or KB size?

Our satellite company's Fair Access Policy allows: 425 mb max per 24 hours, but it seems like we often go over that amount by just surfing the internet. We have 2 adults and 3 kids who use Mac computers. Is there a way to view the amount of KB's or MB's used after viewing a page? For instance: does looking at a Facebook page use 100 KBs? does looking at a YouTube video use 10 MBs?
Thanks.

There are a few things you can do to cut down on bandwidth. I set Firefox never to check the cache with pages online, so that if I go back to a previous page, it does not need to download again, but can be pulled out of the cache.
browser.cache.check_doc_frequency - set to 2 (never)
I use Flashblock to prevent Flash items from downloading automatically. If there is any Flash item you want to see, you click the icon over that space, and that one item will load but none of the others on the page will load until you want them to do so.
I use Adblock Plus to block ads. This saves bandwidth as well, since it stops banner ads from being loaded, and blocks popup ads as well.

Is there any way to read XML directly from a Web Page ??

i have a url, which on sending request, shows XML in browser.
Now i need to read this XML in browser and then manipulate it according to my need and display it on another page.
actually the process is. :
1) i have to first retrieve an xml from other site. (XML will only be shown in browser)
2.)then i have to read the Xml and show it in according to my requirements.
Is there any way to read XML directly from a Web Page ??
is their logic to accomplish this.
e.g in Servlet i can do somewhat like this :
String wholeXml=Somemethod(url);
Please Advice

the average Java XML parser will accept an InputStream, so just open an URLConnection to the webpage, get the inputstream from it and feed that inputstream to the XML parser. If the URL has valid XML data, it will get parsed without problems.

I accidentally hit the install software update on my IPad and I am not by my computer and won't be for 2 weeks. Is there any way I can get my IPad off the picture of connecting to ITunes?

No. You must connect your iPad to a computer (it does not have to be yours) in order to restore it to factory settings.
Once you're home, you can restore it from a backup.
Any content that you did not backup has been lost.

Is there any way to find out how much battery life you have on you're Bluetooth Magic Mouse and Apple Keyboard on your Windows Partion?

I'm a avid gamer and for my gaming needs most of the games that I love require Windows ,but due to my constant clicking I drain my mouse battery very fast so I always have backups. Is there anyway I can check how much mouse battery I have left so I can be sure before I start a gaming session that I'll be fine? Switching back and forth between partions is an option ,but I find it as more of a last resort then something to do normally.
Thanks in advance!

call them, tell them you NEED a new battery installed, and they need to tell you when they can do it. That is their job to help you! Give pushback if necessary.

Is there any way I can monitor how many Gb I download each month?

I'm considering changing broadband package and would like to know how much I download each month. All I can find are ways of estimating based on size of various files, streaming etc. as a multi person household it would be much more useful to know exactly how much I use.

You can only do this over all the PCs in the home if you have a special router that has this facility.
Otherwise you will need to install on every PC a network meter such as:
NetMeter Evo 2.0.0
or
Broadband Usage Meter - tbbMeter

Is there a place I can see how much data I uploaded other server like the old version of Sync did?

In the old version of Firefox Sync you can see what data was uploaded, with the next Sync I see nothing and when I got my account on the website Firefox, I don't see nothing just a sign in and change password screen. Would there be more there soon?

Hi Kurbo,
Please do leave feedback for the developers at input.mozilla.org, currently there is not a feature that shows how much data or what data is uploaded.
However if you are handy at picking up apis there are some apis that can be read about [https://blog.mozilla.org/services/2014/05/08/firefox-accounts-sync-1-5-and-self-hosting/ here]

I copied text & paisted it and then draged the 3 photos from the file...then clicked on the photo then clicked the inline boxon tool bar nexed to floating one and that is how I did it
I do not know what you mean "cut & paist" how do I get the photo in from my picter folder if I do not drag it to the page in Pages?
I went to my photo folder and copied a photo and paisted the photo on the top left part of the page and it went there but there was no text to the right of photo...I could crop the photo to what ever size but no text to the right of photo...
This is just too big of a mess of a program as it should be easier then this,,,I hav e 300 photos in this project and would have to re-paist them all...that is nuts...
I see the button to the right of inline and floating that has 6 [lace to have the photo but the text does not float around the photo...
If this is what your talking about this very little freedom in my page layout as I need it to let me place it where I need it to be and the wrap the text...

My ipad was stolen however i have the serial number...is there any way i can see if someone is using it?

My ipad was stolen but I have the serial number.
How can I track it and how can I register my new one?

If they haven't already wiped it and started over, and you activated Find my iPhone on your iPad, you might be able to track it. If you did not activate Find my iPhone, you will not be able to track it. Apple will not help you. But, you should immediately go and change your Apple ID password, and any other passwords you use for accounts like Twitter, Facebood, Mail, Apps you make purchases with, like the Starbucks Mobile App, etc.

On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD on a different computer using Home Sharing? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

Yes, you can copy songs that you ripped from a CD to your Home Sharing computer.
Turn on Home Sharing first on both computers. To do that, go to File > Home Sharing > Turn on Home Sharing. Enter your Apple ID and password.
Now go to your computer that you want to copy the songs to and connect to your Home Share. You can do that by clicking on the popover button located at the left top corner right below the play control buttons. Click on it and scroll to the bottom until you see your Home Share and select it.
Go to Music in your Home Share. Select the songs that you want to copy in your Home Share and click Import at the bottom right corner.

Is there any way I can view internet pages that can be viewed only with explorer browser?

Hello, there is one site that I visit extremely often for work, but it works only with explorer browser. Is there any way I can open it using y iPad?

If its only for explorer browsers, the company who owns that website doesn't know how to make a website. most of the sites out there now are using HTML5 which is cross-compatible on all browsers.
The reason it needs internet explorer is because it will probably need to use some sort of active x plugin.
I disagree that "the company who owns that website doesn't know how to make a website." You do not know the requirements; technical, contractual, or environmental that led to the design of the web site. There may be a valid reason the site is designed to use IE only. For example, many multimillion dollar government web sites are IE only because of policy, security, or other restrictions.
