Gonna pick up a tablet for my Mum for Xmas, but have absolutely no clue on Android or Samsung.
She likes Samsung stuff, has a phone and a smart watch, so seems like the best place to start.
There seems to be about 7,000 options.
Needs to be able to handle the internet, photo storage, nothing...
My tux wearing c**t of a cat has chewed through the charging / power lead for my Mac.
Suggestions on anywhere to get a replacement?
Is it an Apple job, or are there any alternatives?
Cheers
Deeg
Hoping the various Mac gurus can help.
Issue 1 - Certain pages are not opening properly. For example my Tesco Credit Card account won't open once I've put in all the security information, it just displays a blah page, but as if it has loaded - Make sense?. Likewise maps on a few pages won't...
I am completely stumped by this one, so any info would be greatly appreciated.
My itunes is pretty meticulously maintained. It has been for the last few years, but this evening I have noticed something really weird.
A load of albums have appeared in my files, which are not in my library, and...
Looking at picking up a new TV in the next few days. This one has caught my eye, with reasonable reviews:

I've been offered a new 3rd gen Apple TV for £50, which (and I'm not completely sure why) I'm tempted by.
Am I right in thinking I can use it with my Netflix and iTunes account as a streaming system?
Does it have iplayer etc built in too?
I need to get the Internet from downstairs to up stairs.
Any recommendations on power line adapters?
There seems to be a lot of choice around the £30 - £50 mark, for 200MBPS range. Won't be used for anything particularly onerous, but of downloading and surfing.
Any advice is much appreciated.
I've started to rip my DVD's into iTunes, which is fine, but all I have I the film name and the artwork that I have added myself.
Is there anything that can lookup the film name against a database, and add in all the other fields in the iTunes information tab?
It's only a minor thing, but my...
Good evening all Apple fans, hoping you can help me out.
Does anyone have a readily available list of all Apple iPhone and iPad launches since the start of 2011?
I want to do some analysis tomorrow for work, and the above would help me a lot.
If anyone does have it to hand I'd be very...
As per title, what is the best ebook reader around?
My Mum wants one for Xmas. I stress, she doesn't want a tablet, just an ebook reader.
Is it the Kindle?
Also, is the kindle back-lit?
Cheers in advance, as per.

I've posted this before, and the answer was handbrake, but that doesn't seem to want to work for me now I have a Mac (although I'm not sure if it ever worked previously on my PC).
Anyway, recommendations?
Please bare in mind, this will also probably need to be accompanied by a step by step...
Right, I want to move my contacts over from Gmail. There are about 10 contacts in the Gmail (from 300 or so) that aren't on iCloud (I always used Gmail as opposed to iCloud - I guess the iCloud came from my phone).
Anyway, I can export my Gmail contacts as Vcards simple enough, but how do I...
I have a 250GB Elements external HD which I use for back ups, however, I'm about to go on a digitising mission, which means I'm gonna need a lot more storage.
Any suggestions.
Would prefer not to have a powered desk top solution due to effectively not having a desk, and being lap top based...
I've tried googling, but due to being full r****d, I don't really understand the issue, other than it might be something to do with at some point having different apple ID's. Now AFAIK, I've only ever had one apple ID, which is my old hotmail account (had it for years, I CBA changing).
Any...
Can anyone help me?
Finally sorted my bookmarks out on my MPB, but it won't sync with my iPhone.
All the other iCloud stuff is syncing, well the calendars, I don't really use anything else over iCloud.
Any suggestions? Please be warned, if you do have an answer, it will need to be in full...
Right, I'll be getting to grips with a MBP after Christmas, so wondering if the good people of CS can help me out with a number of questions:
1 - I need to migrate my iTunes over. Now, is this just a case of setting iTunes up on the MBP with my account and transferring my files into the file...
Right, I need 4 tyres in 205/50/16V.
I basically don't go around corners, I spend all my time on the motorway, so don't really want to be dropping £600 on a set of tyres. That said, I don't want to be using budget tyres either. Looking at circa £400 including fitting.
Due to punctures etc, I'm...
I've just tried to have this conversation with a particularly useless member of call centre staff, but I know there are a few on here who work for orange / are in the know.
What triggers a 'best plan review'? The guy on the phone was suggesting it was just totally random.
Anyone else?
Running windows XP.
Wifi sync is enabled on the phone, everything has been re-booted, but it's still having none of it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Edit - After doing all of the above for a 3rd time, it has actually worked.
At last.
I have a sheet in excel which contains possible sales opportunities and has about 30 columns in.
What I need to do, is put a macro in a different sheet which will display all the rows and some of the columns where 'Y' is present in one of the columns - make sense?
I never use macros, so...
Excellent. I'm still on my talk until you get brain cancer tarriff, so all is well.
Now, let the 'tard begin.
WTF do I do with my contacts? I'm on a Sony Erricson W995 which, iirc, I bought from Noah. If I sync it with my lap top, how do I get the contacts into iTunes?
Annoyingly, I'm gonna have to buy a bluetooth handsfree headset (I don't know if they have a proper name?).
Just want a cheap one which will pair with a very basic Nokia and a Sony Ericson.
Any recomendations?
Cheers.
Deeg.
This is going to sound incredibly dumb.
I set the Ps3 up to the wirseless network in my previous house, I remember doing it, but now I'm in my new house with new wireless network, I can't for the life of me find how to connect to it.
I'm sure I just selected it from a list last time, but I...
What are people’s thoughts on this AV set up?
System 1 from Richer Sounds.

I know it’s not going to be the best set up in the world, but it will be in a reasonably small room, so don’t really need anything bigger than a 32” TV. I can...
I know this is CS, but you're a useful bunch for most things. So I'll give it a go.
I have an 04 Focus with the following standard stereo installed:
What I want to do, is keep the standard double din and not have a face off unit, but be able to get an ipod link.
So is it possible to...
I've just moved all my music into the iTunes folder. Now how do I get iTunes to pick it up?
I'm on windows obviously. I just copied and pasted into the music folder, which I'm sure is what I did last time I did this, but I can't seem to find / remember what I did.
Anyone help an utter 'tard?
