Where do you store your remote?

OK - I admit - I've had my MBP for less than three days and I've already lost my remote control (it must be around here somewhere - I've just no idea where). When I finally get a bag for my computer (and after I FIND the remote - if I find my remote) I'll just store it in my bag. But for now I have a simple (and tight) sleeve: nowhere to store the remote (unless it will fit in the ExpressCard slot?).
I'm beginning to think Velcro may do the trick - anyone else had a remote go missing and, if not, where are you keeping it so that it will be handy?

I found it! I had tossed it in one of the compartments of my old PowerBook case... and I'm leaving it there until my new backpack for my MBP...
...as to the usefulness of the remote on a 15" screen, I see it more as a novelty when, for instance, you're sitting at the airport, your favorite hotspot, etc., and someone becomes interested in the photos of your vacation snaps. But I did note, looking at the Dell site at their 1.6" thick Intel Core Duo laptops, that they sell a remote for use with the XP media center OS. And, boy, not only is the computer big and ugly, so is the remote!

    Hi I just got me 1st ever imac computer.

    if not where do people store there remote? as I know what will happen to mine if its not stuck on!!
    Also how do you change the battery if it goes in the remote?
    cheers
    Andy

    The new Macs dont have a magnet in it like the old iMacs, which is bad. I just put my remote right next to my Mac. To change the battery you sting something to the small button under the remote. Then a battery holder should pop out.

  • Where do you store your videos?

    My 80 GB iPod has more space than my computer does, and after buying several seasons worth of TV shows, I've run out of room on my computer, but still have space on the iPod. Where do you store all of these video files? I don't have a DVD burner (just a player), so I can't burn them onto DVDs.

    Mist people store their video in the cloud.

  • Where do you buy your apps?

    Where do you buy your apps for the iphone? Right on the phone? Can you buy them online if you have an itunes gift card? 

    There are two ways of downloading apps on the iPhone, you can either download them directly from the iPhone using the App Store app, or from iTunes on the computer (Mac or PC), an iTunes gift card can be used on either
    iPhone:  Open the App Store app (should be an app with a blue icon on the first page if apps, unless you moved it elsewhere), tap on "Featured" on the bottom black bar, then scroll all the way down, you should then see two options, Redeem and Apple ID: <your Apple ID>, tap on Redeem, type in your iTunes gift card code, then tap Redeem, once the card is redeemed, you can then start searching for apps within the App Store app
    iTunes (Mac or PC):  Open iTunes and connect the iPhone (let it complete sync), click on iTunes Store on the left pane, then in the Quick Links pane, click Redeem, type in your iTunes gift card code, then click Redeem, once the card is redeemed, in the iTunes STORE pane to the left, click App Store, then you should get similar options to the App Store on the iPhone, download the apps from there and sync them to the iPhone

  • Where do you locate your location on the iPad?

    Where can you check your location on the iPad?

    I'm not sure what your asking but, I use a app called magic piano and when it shares my performance it states that my location is in Australia instead of United States ..
    When I updated my iPad my profile pic and location no longer is correct.
    So I'm trying to fix that and unsure how or why but would like to correct it..
    Thnx. ;)

  • Where do you get your images?

    I have accounts with several different stock image online
    companies. But things are getting very expensive.
    I was wondering if there was a website that offers free
    images. I'm also curious, where do you get your images?
    I can grab my digital camera, take a few pictures and edit
    with photoshop but thats not always the case.
    When you design a web page, where do you get your images?
    Thaks for any suggestions.

    Patty, I've used stock.xchg (sxc.hu) before and found some
    good (and bad)
    images there. Another one to try is Morgue File -

  • Question to all: Where do you purchase your images???

    Guys/Gals,
    Where do you purchase your images when needed? Both photos and vector Illustrations.
    I buy from istockphoto.com and bigstockphotos.com, but is there anything better according to your experience?
    I am currently buying a lot of illustrations (vector) - cartoonlike, at about $15 each... which do you buy from and which is the best?Considering the selection and prices.
    I always thought that free image sites didn't have a good selection, am I wrong?
    The question is brough up, everybody that reads this should answer and give their point of view, I am curious to see (and I am sure you are too).
    Jack Newton

    iStock is your best choice for selection and price, but not always quality or even accuracy. iStock is stocked by photographers and artists trying to make extra money. Their offerings are always more diverse than what you'd find on a pro stock photo site. Photographers left to produce imagery on their own will pursue their interests and what they're good at, and that's why you'll find a lot of great stuff on iStock you won't find anywhere else. Sites like photos.com don't compare with this, but may have better visual quality. But, again, the number of "concepts" are limited. If you move above sites like iStock and photos.com then be prepared to dish out big money.
    iStock can be a godsend, but be careful. I often find many photographers will upsize their images at the cost of a loss of quality. I also find photographers who try to make their images better by touching them up with Photoshop, but many of them should just stick with staying behind the camera. I see images where areas were obviously cloned sloppily. Just make sure when selecting an image to zoom in and look at the quality and to check for the sloppy fixes.
    And be very careful when searching for something which you are not knowledgeable on. One time I was searching for Japanese imagery and found a photo labeled "Geisha". This "geisha" was a western girl in the proper make-up and hair... but she was wearing a Chinese dress! You do NOT want to embarrass your clients with something like that.
    Bottom line IMO, iStock is the way to go.

  • Zen Nano Plus Guys: Where Do You Get Your Mus

    I get mine off Limewire and I was basically told that it wouldn't work AFTER I purchased my brand new Nano Plus by the customer support guy. Where do you get your files from?

    I just got my Nano yesterday.. 4/29
    This is what I do:
    .Download the songs on Limewire
    2.Under the Library Tab on Limewire there is a button called "Explore". click on that.
    3. All of the songs that you have downloaded should show up when the folder pops up
    4. Open the Windows Media Player (if you dont have it u should get it) and go to the tab that says "Sync"
    5. Drag the files one-by-one onto "Items to Synchronize" on the Windows Media Player
    6. Once you are done, press "Start Sync" at the top.. it should work
    Now.. the only problem Im having is how to listen to all of my files. Ive downloaded 65 songs on here and its only playing 32 of them.

  • How Do You Store Your Movie Masters?

    Hi all,
    I'm curious, how do you store your Movie Masters? Let's say you filmed an important Family event from a camcorder with a hard drive. You imported the footage into you mac and edited it in iMovie or Final Cut Pro or other app.
    Then what?
    Do you make a DVD?
    Do you save a DVD image file on the computer?
    Do you export a .mov or other format file?
    Do you delete the DV original files because they are so massive?
    Do you save/delete the iMovie or FCP master original footage?
    When do you delete the camcorder hard drive original (when you need the space)?
    What other approaches do you do?
    Which is the Master?
    How do you back up your movie?
    Thanks in advance for your opinions.

    Great question. I think the issue of backup is a important one, and one I always worry about since I have a lot of video footage that is irreplaceable.
    For back-up, it is helpful to define the risk you are trying to protect from.
    For example,
    1) risk of corruption in iMovie --> I might use Time Machine (but I do not because I have not had the issue)
    2) risk of hard drive failure --> I use SuperDuper! nightly
    3) Risk of theft or fire --> offsite backup
    Here is what I do...
    1) I back up my boot disk with SuperDuper automatically to alternate external partitions every other night so I always have two bootable systems. One is less than one day old, and one is less than two days old.
    2) I back up my original video files. For my Motion JPEG, VHS-->AIC, DV, and 8MM to DV, the EVENT is the copy I back up. For my AVCHD high def video, I back up the archive of the AVCHD, but I am not currently backing up the Event files, because I would need from 4 to 8 TB to back up these events depending on whether I made one copy or two.
    3) I use CrashPlan for my offsite backup. It costs less than $4 per month, and I seeded the initial backup to an external drive to minimize having to transfer video files over the Internet. I currently have 1.2TB of data backed up to CrashPlan, which includes my entire boot drive, and the files described in #2.
    4) All of the above is automated, so I don't have to think about it too much. If I have to manually do stuff, I tend to get behind.
    You have to consider the value of total multiple redundancy vs. the likelihood that 2 or three unlikely events would all happen at once. For example, CrashPlan could lose my data. My hard disk could fail. I could lose everything in a fire. But it is unlikely that they would all happen at once, except in nuclear war, in which case, who cares?
    I am considering adding Time Machine backup and some off-site backup of the Event files into the mix, but for now I am satisfied.

  • Where do you store documents and passwords on Ipad?

    where do you store documents and passwords on Ipad?

    Usually on the iPad, documents are associated with a particular app, which has its storage area for documents. A good Swiss Army Knife for docs is GoodReader.
    Do a search in the iTunes App Store and you will find scores of password apps.
