  • How can I make sure that my music on my Ipod Classic is not lost forever, if it breaks down?

    How can I make sure that my library of music on my Ipod Classic is not lost forever, if it breaks down?

    Back it up.

    Your music library should never exist only on your iPod.  It must be present on a computer in iTunes, and to be sure it must be saved on an external drive also.

    If your library no longer exists on your computer for whatever, reason, you need to extract the iPod.

  • How can I make sure I have need of aid is a legimate technician. just been scammed by someone representing as my virus protection company

    pop up kept appearing on the lower right of the computer saying I had infections more 5 000.  He showed my company logo protection antivirus (AVG) and because the computer was slow and freezing I connected.  He registered a phone number to call for help.  I called, explained my problem and the man said: I'll connect you with a technician.  I specifically asked if he was in this country, and he said he was in Connecticut.  The reason I asked was because I am deaf it made it difficult to understand people with accents.  I really thought that I was speaking with moy.  After many hours remotely connected to my computer, my computer was worse than before that I called him shaped and $ 120.00.  I called AVG to complain and told me that I was probably being scammed and to check with my Bank and credit company to have all changed.  Of course, I took care of him.  The Bank assured me they would check on "GuruAid" and yesterday I received an email from them (GuruAid), say that there is no charge.

    I am never in a situation like this, once again.  My question is: How can I make sure I have need of aid is a legitimate technician.  Seems many companies can fool you into believing that you talk with a legitimate business.

  • How can I make sure that any firewalls (versions of software or hardware) does not block port 443 to access?

    How can I make sure that any firewalls (versions of software or hardware) does not block port 443 to access?

    Hi Anna_753,

    Usually, you would receive messages from any program if it is impossible to access the port.

    If you want to check if the port is accessible, then you will need to check the firewall settings.

    Each firewall has its own parameters for ports of the computer.

  • How can I make sure deleted files are permantly removed from my system and non-recoverable?

    I have files that I deleted, then emptied my Recycle Bin, but I understand that these are still recoverable. They have not been sent, published or shared. How can I make sure that they are permantently deleted and not accessible from my computer. I have Windows 7 on a HP DM4 if that helps. I need simple answers because I'm a girl who is not all that computer savy. I appreciate the answers, thank you.

    It all depends on how hard you want the person you are looking for the file to work.  What you did until the preserved most of other casual users to recover files.

    If you take the hard drive to a data recovery company, they would probably still recover (unsecured) files.  You can use programs that write too much data time and time again - but even in this case, it might be salvageable.
    Government and businesses know that the only way to ensure that the files have disappeared is to destroy the drive - by crushing or it chop into pieces with a machine to grind.
  • How can I make sure that changes in a primary key (in the parent table) would also appear directly in the FOREIGN KEY in the child table?

    Forgive my question. I am very new to Oracle.

    How can I make sure that changes in the key primary supplier_id (concerning the supplier table) would also appear directly in the FOREIGN KEY (supplier_id) in the products table?

    Is that not all the primary key and FOREIGN KEY on?

    My paintings:

    I created 2 tables and connect to apply in the data base referential integrity, as I learned.

    CREATE TABLE - parent provider

    (the numeric (10) of supplier_id not null,)

    supplier_name varchar2 (50) not null,

    Contact_Name varchar2 (50).

    CONSTRAINT supplier_pk PRIMARY KEY (supplier_id)

    );

    CREATE TABLE - child products

    (the numeric (10) of product_id not null,)

    supplier_id numeric (10) not null,

    CONSTRAINT fk_supplier

    FOREIGN KEY (supplier_id)

    REFERENCES beg (supplier_id)

    );

    I inserted the following text:

    INSERT INTO provider

    (supplier_id, supplier_name, contact_name)

    VALUES

    (5000, 'Apple', 'first name');

    I expect that the supplier_id (5000) to the provider of the table also appears in the products table under key supplier_id having the same value which is 5000. But this does not happen.

    How to get there?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    What is a foreign key in Oracle?

    A foreign key is a way to ensure referential integrity in your Oracle database. A foreign key means that the values of a table must appear also in another table.

    Ok!??

    What is now the right way to implement referential integrity in your Oracle database that the values of a table must also be included in another table?

    A foreign key referential integrity indeed enfore in ensuring that the value in the child table must have a corresponding parent key (otherwise you will encounter an error, as evidenced by "SomeoneElse"). However, it will never automatically insert a row in the other table.

    If you are looking for a solution that automatically inserts a record in the other table, maybe you should go for triggers:

  • my daughter received a comp. from a friend that the hard disk has been deleted how to get windows xp back on it

    I downloaded windows xp from mirowsoft up to 6 discs of A which I just it ready for the cd of window xp I don't have.

    Hi cjoyner66,

    Thanks for posting. I'm confused on 6 discs A you're talking about. Windows XP can not hold on 6 floppy disks if that's what you are referring. If the hard disk has been deleted, you will need to use your Windows XP disk and reinstall Windows using this disk and the key associated with this record. If you don't have XP media, you must contact the OEM of your computer or buy an extra copy of the XP.

    I hope this helps!

  • I have trouble deleting a project to create Clip... keep it coming back (sync).  How can I make sure that it is void of all devices and permanently?

    I have trouble deleting a project to create Clip... keep it coming back (sync).  How can I make sure that it is void of all devices and permanently?  So much space being taken up on my iPad... there at - it a why to manage what are sync'd projects and ignore others?

    Hi Bill,

    Sorry, you have trouble. Here's a suggestion:

    1. launch Premiere Clip on a device and make sure it is not open on other devices.

    2. on the device, as it is opened, remove projects that are no longer needed.

    3. allow the synchronization of the application (leave opens and is not the bottom) so that projects are marked as being deleted on the service. A circle of rotation icon appears in the lower left corner of your device while synchronization is in progress.

    4. Uninstalling the app on other devices, then re - install and login to leave remaining projects sync.

    Please let us know if this solves your problem, or if you need more help.

    Thank you

  • How can I make sure that all components in my opinion have been instantiated to test

    I'm testing a view 'view', which has an ADG but the ADG is null.

    Try this code:

    view.adg.dataProvider = data;

    How can I make sure that all components in my opinion have been instantiated to test?

    private var view: UserManagement;
    [Front]
    public void Setup (): void
    {

    view = new UserManagement;

    }

    [Test]
    public function testSaveData (): void
    {
    var data: collection ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
    for (var i: int = 0; i < 1000; i ++)
    {
    var item: Object = new Object;
    element.isModifiedClientSide = Math.round (Math.random () * 1);
    data.addItem (element);

    }
    view.adg.dataProvider = data;

    }

    You have instantiated your view.  Usually, when I'm working with a view, mine looks like this

    private var myView:MyViewClass;

    [Before(async,ui)]
    

    public void Setup (): void

    {

    Bird = new MyViewClass();

    Async.proceedOnEvent (this, opinion, FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, 500);

    UIImpersonator.addChild (bird);

    }

    [After]

    public function teardown (): void

    {

    UIImpersonator.removeChild (bird);

    Bird = null;

    }

  • The upgrade from Vista to Windows 7: How can I make sure that I keep Microsoft Office

    A few months back I took advantage of this offer to upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 for a discounted price. After that I downloaded the upgrade file, Upgrade Advisor told me that because I'm using Vista business and I was upgrade 7, that my computer would probably be home must pass through with a 'clean install', thus wiping my hard drive.

    That's fine with me, I could just move my documents and Favorites on an external hard drive. But I'm afraid that the upgrade will be wipe my Microsoft Office programs.

    I bought this computer a few years ago. I don't even know if I bought the program with office bundled with it, or if I bought it separately (and probably the discs are somewhere in storage).

    How can I make this update without losing Microsoft Office? Is it possible to confirm if my word has come with my computer or if I installed it separately. If it came with it, and I lose it, certainly there must be a free way for me to recover. Right?

    Any other advice for someone planning on the upgrade?

    Thank you!

    You're the one who knows if you installed Office.

    Office (Word, etc.) comes for free with Windows. you have to buy.

    If Office is preinstalled, it was a test.

    A clean installation will wipe everything.

    You cannot transfer programs.

    It needs to be reinstalled from the original media.

  • I installed Windows 7 64 bit and then some programs will not install the 64 - bit while telling me that I have a 32 bit OS. How can I make sure I have load a 64-bit version only when there is a choice?

    I have create a new PC and installed Windows & Pro 64-bit. While some offer programs install both 32-bit and 64-bit as a single installation and the installation of the program checks it should install. A few programs installed 32-bit when I said to use the 64-bit. I received a message that I had a 32 bit OS and that it could not install the 64-bit version. How can I ensure that the 64-bit version is always installed when it is available. I have a program that I need it's 32-bit however.

    I also installed Office 2010 and want to know how to check if it installed 32-bit or 64-bit.
    All this is because I'm about to build a new PC for my wife and want to avoid these problems right at the front with it.
    Thank you

    If you buy a commercial version of win7 you are provided with the installation dvd of bit versions and a unique activation key. You cannot install both versions.

    Most of the programs will install without problem in a 64-bit version of victory, there is very little that will not be installed on Windows 64-bit.

    You install programs as usual, you don't need to change any settings or install to anywhere other than their default locations. -C' IE you do not manually select the x 86 folder or any other folder.

    If the program you are installing has the ability to install a specific version of bit, and it does not work, then the problem is that options program installers, you must contact the program support

    A retail version of Office 2010 also comes with two versions of ILO.

    Having a 64-bit version of victory does NOT mean that you need to install 64-bit Office, in fact MS recommends that stick you with 32-bit Office (reason being compatibility with various plug0ins Office)

    And of course the 32-bit version of win only supports 4 GB of memory
