It could still be a bad HDMI cable, but spending more money for one won't increase the odds of it being good.

So I was just trying to have a video chat with a friend using gchat, and weirdly, I could see him, and myself, in the little window, and we could hear each other, but he couldn't see either. He kept getting a message that his computer didn't have a functioning camera, or something. Which...clearly it did, I was getting video of him. Any thoughts? (He's apparently on a macbook--if there hadn't been any video, I'd have assumed it was an issue with the camera, but since there was...)

It's a good idea to select to show Details so that you can pick just what you want to delete.

Ah! That's what I was looking for! Thanks.

Edit: No, sorry, I meant individual sites. Not the whole shebang....

Well this could be interesting: Google Music Beta [link]

I'm helping my mom set up her new computer. She's been using a PC, and she got a Mac. She's got a whole lot of passwords saved in Firefox on her old computer that she wants to transfer over to her new computer. What's the best way to do this? I've found a few different options through Google, but I'm not sure which would be the best and/or easiest.

Hil,

I think firefox has a syncing structure if you sync firefox to firefox. You might just need to set up firefox sync on both computers and be done with it.

I've got another issue with helping my mother set up her new computer. She got a MacBook Pro, and she's using Firefox 4. When she tries to play Scramble or Lexulous on Facebook, it shows only part of the usual opening screen -- for Scramble, it shows the box on the right with the Scramble Profile, but not the set of buttons on the left that let you actually play the game.

Already tried installing the latest version of Java, which didn't help. Also already checked that she wasn't using the secure browsing, since I know those games don't work with the https connection. I tried logging her out of facebook and logging me on on her computer, and the games don't work in my account, either, even though they do work in my account on my computer, which is also a MacBook Pro running Firefox 4. Any suggestions?

edit: Figured it out! The problem was that her computer didn't have Flash installed.

Oh my god, I am going out of my mind. I just bought a new Dell laptop (Inspiron 14R) and am trying to figure out how to use the plus and minus and enter keys in the Calculator program, so that I can do everything via the keyboard instead of typing numbers and then having to mouse over and click the plus symbol on the calculator.

I was guessing that the Number Lock key would help, but I can't figure out which effing F key is Number Lock, and all the googling in the world just turns up supremely unhelpful stuff like "To enable Number Lock, press the Fn key + NumLock." BUT WHICH KEY IS NUMLOCK???

Sorry for the asscaps, but I've been trying to figure out this very simple thing for at least half an hour, and I'm about to tear my hair out!

...you don't have a plus sign over the equals key? Where have they put things on your laptop??

Try function - f11 or look for a little lock, somewhere?
