n8galicia Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Boats N Hoes- I had that same problem too, I think the resolution for the mp4 is too high. Try converting it to a preset iPod Touch/iPhone or iPod Classic dimension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeedupfromthefeetup Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Copy the files to several CDs or a single DVD. Make sure that you copy them, and don't burn them as audio CD tracks. You'll find your iTunes files in your My Music folder. You can also use an external drive Put the CD or DVD in the disk drive of your new PC. Drag the song folders from the CD or DVD to the Library icon in the iTunes window. The folders and all the songs in them will be copied into iTunes. (From iTunes, you can also choose File ® "Add to Library" to copy them.) TIP: If you're selling, scrapping, or giving away a computer that has iTunes installed on it, make sure you "deauthorize" it. If you don't, it will still count as one of the up to five computers you can play iTunes files on. To deauthorize your computer, in iTunes select Advanced ® Deauthorize Computer, select Deauthorize Computer for Apple Account, and enter your Apple ID and password. good look....and about how many cd's do you think it would it take to for about 2000 songs??? i dont wanna get halfway through it and run out of cds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the sources probably comes from there. As for oil companies, dunno. Maybe same thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suber Giraffe Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Couple questions regarding Windows 7... 1: I'm moving my desktop from xp to w7 and when reinstalling apps (mostly cracked), I keep getting harassed by administrative rights. How can I disable that? I am the administrator and the only profile, I want that ish to go away. 2: I am also trying to establish a homegroup, however with both computers connected, w7 wants me to create 2 homegroups in which both computers cant connect. What is an easy way of getting this homegroup bizness started? 3: lastly... how the eff do I get my icons small... this shit is enormous. Thank much /frustratedoner go into start menu in that little search bar type "UAC" it standsa for user account control turn it ALL the way off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poes Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Ive been trying to stop my parents computer from running slow as shit. I've uninstalled as much shit as possible, run defreg, CCLEAner, took out Norton and disable as many startup processes as I could... and it has made a difference, especially to startup time, but it is still fucking slow, sluggish and unresponsive. I would say they got it about 2003. It runs XP. Is upgrading RAM (from 512) likely to help speed it up or is it just dying a slow death? Ive never upgraded asnything before. It is also makes a loud noise. almost like a buzzing grinding noise. like a cross between someone revving an engine and someone dragging a boulder up a mountain. any idea what that is? im guessing not the fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also consider getting them a newer videocard. I've used this trick a million times and made an old pc come to life with a simple upgrade.

poes Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Cheers, Casek cant prop you anymore but the thought is there. Out of interest, how exactly would a better videocard help? I always assumed videocards were something to worry about for people that are hardcore gamers! also, any thoughts on what might be causing the noise? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed videocards were something to worry about for people that are hardcore gamers! also, any thoughts on what might be causing the noise? Noise: Get some canned air and blow the fans out. Turn off the computer, hold the fan blades in place so they don't spend, and blow the dust and shit out. If that doesn't take care of the noise, either replace the fans or pull the sticker on top/middle off and drop (carefully) one drop of wd-40 in. Videocard: videocards take strain off of the processor by processing graphics separately. I wouldn't go really high end. If it's an older pc, you might find a nice 512 meg (ram) card for under $100 (U.S.). Check and make sure you know if your pc is AGP or PCI-E.

KILZ FILLZ Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 So I spilled water on my keyboard and immediately dried off what I could with a towel. Somehow I must have hit some keys that resulted in it speaking everything I type, every window that pops up, when one enlarges or minimizes. I'm going nuts. Running OS X. Any help? Google searches are just hitting the text to speech function, that isn't what I have enabled. It's like some kind of assistance for the blind or something. im sorry but i really laughed out loud at this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abcs Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 as part of my studies ive been taking a general community college certification. Its pretty broad in its focus but ive been learning a lot. I am just kind of concerned that its too generic. Comprehensive... its 48 credit hours worth of classwork but still. So i also have all these Microsoft resources that ive been looking at. Everything i would need to prepare for and take certification tests. I'm kinda a noob. I feel like i should start at the bottom and i have MCSE microsoft press books. All of them but my concern is that before too very long MCSE will no longer be valid. After earning MCSE cert. 1 additional test earns you all 3 MCTP certs. An additional test and you become MCITP-SA and 1 more will earn you MCITP-EA. Now im looking at this and realize that this is a monumental task. Lots of prep, lots of tests, lots of stress. As far as i can tell...If i really get it in i could probably do most of this in a year and a half. My question to all of you. MCSE has been around since 03. Microsoft scraps old certs every 7-10 years. When they decide to discontinue the old certifications like MCSE do they give MCSE holders sufficient time to upgrade or are you just screwed? I would just feel fucking terrible if i was to do all this and just as i finish my achievements are for nothing. I know that MCSE is not going to remain valid for ever. I realize that it is due to expire sooner than later. If i got the MCSE and they were like... ok people with the MCSE have a year to upgrade i would be chill with this but im not sure if they operate like that. At the same time i realize that the skills included in MCSE should overlap with the new hookups. While there have been alot of changes alot still remains the same. Plus alot of companies still use 2003 and will continue to use 2003. I dont consider learning these skills to be a waste of time but i want valid certs if im going to go through all the bullshit. So... insite would be appreciated. Alternative paths or suggestions as well. I appreciate any advice shot my way. The other thing i could add. The only money i expect to come off in this pursuit if i do decide to do this would be for the tests. I already have everything i need and plan to do this on the cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring Break '92 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Ok, so I got a Blackberry 8830. I used to be able to connect it to my Windows based PC and transfer media back and forth. Now the PC does not recognize the USB. I always get a box saying 'please insert disk into drive G:'. I tried changing letters for the drive. Searched the webs for solutions. Nothing solid. What gives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
