What I don't like about Cafe Press is that it took them three tries to get my order right. I have heard similar things from others. Also I'm told they don't have girlie t-s in black.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
All right, asking here because I don't know who to ask short of taking my ahemmed -filled laptop to the Geek Squad, but iTunes won't play the legally obtained eps on my HP Pavillion. The video keeps skipping and then iTunes encounters an error that says Windows encountered a problem and Windows does not know how to fix the problem, ta.
The help function is crappy, I can't figure out how to get in touch with anyone at Apple/iTunes, and I don't even know where to begin to look to see if the laptop is capable of playing iTunes video, which it should be, because video playing and editing was one of the sticking points when I bought it.
So, if anyone can either tell me how to get in touch with decent official support staff to address my problem, or where to look on my computer to know for sure that it is meeting the requirements of iTunes for playing video (RAM, processor, etc.) and if and how I can improve my laptop to meet those requirements.
I'm sorry for asking this here, but I can't even find where the heck actual support is for iTunes. I bought the damned eps, I wanna be able to play them! Who can I complain to?!!!

Juliebird, FWIW, I'd try backing up everything that iTunes touches (all your library files and the catalog) then using Add/Delete Programs in the Control Panel to delete the program, then reinstall with a new copy of the iTunes program from the Apple website. It's probably some codec or some contributing program that hasn't been updated.
Apple might well have some supporting FAQs for iTunes under Windows. I've never had occasion to check for those (never played videos on my Windows iTunes, because that was at work!) but I feel certain they must exist. You're surely not the only one who's had trouble!

Can someone point me to a definition (from a known, trusted source) of XML profiling? Doing a !@#$##@$ slide show and my Google-foo is weak on this one.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Can one device be on more than one VLAN?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
It depends on what you mean by "device" and "VLAN".

By device I mean an edge device such as a computer with just the one NIC. I'm not sure how to expand on VLAN--these are configured to map to IP subnets, if that helps.

It depends more on the switch the computer is plugged into. On modern operating systems, you can configure a single interface to have 2 IP addresses on different subnets, but subnets aren't exactly the same thing as VLANs.

I'm almost certainly mostly positive that we're working one interface to an IP address. I'm going to go with the stance of one VLAN per NIC, unless embarassingly corrected in front of all my coworkers.
