Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
They will charge (albeit slowly) when plugged into a Mac, because the Mac's USB ports will send more charge when required.
Yeah, but they have to be plugged in directly - I've never had any luck charging through a hub. (Maybe if I had a powered hub, but I have a cheapo one.)
The Mac won't do that for the Galaxy, unsurprisingly.
iPad charging on a Mac depends upon the age of the Mac. More recent Macs have USB ports capable of delivering the amount of power the iPad demands, older ones do not.
Speaking of aging Macs, I think my laptop may be dying. The screen looks like it has gaslights along the bottom of it and the number 5 on the keyboard has gone all wonky.
(I suppose I could always have the screen repaired, if it came to that. This machine is not that old!)
Is there any way to make excel display freactions instead of decimals?
I am doing a patternmaking spreadsheet for my students where it calculates how long to make certain lines. It works perfectly in the metric system (but I have no metric rulers, however of course I just get freaky decimals that you have to convert in your had. Usually we try to be accurate to a 16th of an inch, so rounding doesn't help too much (unless I can get it to somehow round to 16ths and have a conversion table, rather than have it round to all sorts of odd measurements you do not find on rulers)
This is wonderful!!!!
That is hilarious and awesome.
They seriously did that? That's so cool.
