    Samsung tablets

    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...

    Charging lead - late 2011 MBP 13

    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

    Issue with safari and MBP running slowly

    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...

    Apple TV - Retards guide

    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?

    Power line networking

    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.

    Is there anything I can use to add data to iTunes files?

    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...

    DVD ripping software

    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...

    Getting contacts from Gmail to iCloud

    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...

    MBP - App Store Apps not updating

    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...

    What tyres would you chose?

    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...

    Orange - best plan review

    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.

    Connecting PS3 to new wireless network - Help please

    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...
