• Amazon Cloud Player or Google Reader works on the Surface with Windows RT?

  Amazon Cloud Player or Google Reader works on the Surface with Windows RT?

  I think that the answer is no, and if yes, what are the types of applications/services that are likely to be developed for the Surface (Windows RT) Finally?
  In addition, these things (Amazon Cloud Player and Google Drive) will be available on the version of Windows 8 fantasy of the Surface when it comes out?
  A Surface of Windows, I bought for my mother and I did not open and I just check all these things. A laptop is perhaps better for her, but I have little that this is best for some reason any.
  Thank you.
   
  Original title: amazon cloud player

  The Surface Pro is a full PC and runs Windows 8, you can install the Amazon downloader and download the song files as you do now on a regular PC. Surface RT runs Windows RT and does not run as many different applications such as Surface Pro.

  You can play songs streamed from the web version of Amazon Cloud Player on Windows 8 and Windows RT. Currently, I'm not aware of any way to download songs from Amazon directly on Windows RT. You will first need to download them on a normal PC and then copy them to the Surface RT if you want to listen to the songs without a network connection.

  There is no Google Drive for Windows RT application so far, but Microsoft did something similar, called SkyDrive.

  In addition, just for the record it is a Kindle for Windows 8 and Windows RT application, so that you can read your Kindle eBooks.

  I speak from experience, having recently purchased a Surface RT to play with. I hope this helps.

• With the help of old computers

  I recently purchased 3 computers with OS 8.1 Windows and MS Office 365 to replace my computers in 2005, which took place from the XP operating system.  My old computer still works well, but they are not all the material was updated to use the Windows 8 operating system.  So I want to disconnect them from the internet and use it only for writing files and financial records.  I have the original CD until Service Pack 3 installation. So I want to re - install the operating system to get rid of old programs I need is no longer.  My question is how to do it of updates from Microsoft, I need to re - install for OS the most reliable and effective, in my opinion, there are several updates only slow down the operating system and are not necessary if the machine is not connected to the Internet?  Your contribution to this issue would be appreciated thanks.

  Installation of updates does not cause all more or less the programs to run. Only, it updates the logic that a running program would use if he had ever run.  It is never good to ignore updates, even those that you may not think are associated with online components, because the system uses still common components for video rendering, audio, PDF, print, graphic display and processing files of... this. Updates are also cumulative and build with each other. Any particular update is assuming that all previous ones have been applied. Having gaps in these can be an attack vector important feat. As much as you are using Windows XP, I recommend to get fully updated running a good antivirus that has a subscription of active update (if required for updates) and using a non administrator account for daily use. In this way any attack that never happens to compromise your profile can take administrative measures.

• I need basic instructions on getting photos off the coast of old computers.

  Hello.  My 2009 and 2010 Macbook Pros are about to quit smoking for good.  I need to delete all photos and videos of them.  Maybe one or two documents.  I'm not a person type tech, but smart enough to do with directions.  I know I need an external hard drive, but how big?  Also, should I have any special type of power cord to connect the two (computer & HD)?  Someone also told me to save my photos in an online store.  I have no idea how to do this.  I have one Capsule temporal, but last used in 2011.  Only, I could get a computer to even recognize him now.  I guess this is too old for the same disorder with?  I appreciate any help I can get.

  Regarding the size of the drive, it depends on how much movies and photos.  Pass the Apple in the upper left corner then about this Mac > more then click on the little tab at the top for storage and it should give you a breakdown.

  2011 is nothing. The time Capsule should work. I have 15 years, discs that work.  I'm not really familiar with time Capsules.  If you end up buying a regular external hard drive, it should come with any string you need. It will probably be a standard USB cord.

• Update Win 7 Starter to Home Premium operating system from a hard disk of the laptop with old?

  I have a netbook with Win 7 Starter.  I have an old laptop that the motherboard is dead hard disk.  I would like to transfer the Win 7 Home Premium OS from the hard drive of my netbook.  Since I already own the licence of this OS, is it possible to transfer?

  If Windows 7 Home Premium came preloaded on the old computer where the motherboard is dead, the answer is no. If the Home Premium license is a retail upgrade or full version, then all you have to do is use the key and product upgrade Starter to Home Premium.

  If the Windows 7 Home Premium license you have access to is a retail version update or complete, you can use the product key and the Express upgrade from Windows 7 Starter to Windows 7 Home Premium. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option to enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Home Premium, when asked, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify you updating the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium files the stored settings and programs.

• Costs on the sale of old computers

  If you are selling a used computer and remove the hard drive and do not provide the disks provided with the system operating systems would you be legally bound to take over the costs of the case sticker?

  No, you're not legally required to remove the COA sticker. In fact, you should make sure the COA sticker rest on the case, in my opinion. Otherwise, you're doing a disservice to the person buying the PC. For example, if a person buys a used PC which came with a license to run XP but without a hard drive, the person always has the option to purchase and installation of a hard drive and get the correct installation media and installing Windows XP without having to pay for another license.

  You can legally it delete? I do not know. I'm not a lawyer. :-)

  If you install Windows XP or a later operating system, you will be able to use the CPU - Z. CPU - z cannot be used if there is no system of operatng on a laptop, because it is not a stand-alone utility.

  Hello!

  Do you also have this problem with version preinstalled Windows or only with your own version of Windows XP?

  And where did you download the drivers? You should only use the drivers from the Toshiba site to ensure that everything will work on the laptop:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online decision-making supported Downloads & => Download drivers
  Check this box if you have all the drivers installed laptop you can find on the Toshiba site.

  Last but not least, I would try to update the BIOS. You can find it on the Toshiba site too.

• Wireless printer connects to the laptop, even though she has worked in the past.

  My printer HP Officejet 6700 Premium connects to my laptop HP Pavilion 15, although he has worked in the past. Other computers around the House connect to the printer and print documents without any problems. When I go to print from Microsoft Word, it says my printer as offline.

  I tried to remove the printer from my devices and printers list (so that I could try to reconnect the printer), but he is not leaving the list after clicking "remove hardware".

  Could someone help me please you troubleshooting? I really need to be able to resume printing my documents for the school.

  Thank you!

  Hi @OfTheFalls

  I'd love to help you reconnect your 6700 printer and computer.

  I suggest using the HP print and Scan doctor first of all, it can solve many printing and scanning errors, network or USB problems, driver problems and conflicts of port connection. Click here to download and run the print and Scan Doctor >www.hp.com/go/tools
