If your laptop can't do HDMI it is possible that your laptop and TV both use have VGA ports: my older TV has one. That's the same port yiu would use to hook up to an older projector or monitor.

The open box deal is how they got me, Maria. I don't regret it.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Yeah, I fell for it. 13" with 128 gigs. So very pretty and shiny. I pick it up this afternoon. It was down to $863 from sticker. I couldn't say no.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Again, a reminder: If you upgrade via iTunes, you don't need to have free space on your iDevice.

Thank you. That is a big update.

Is that true if your ipad never hooks up with your laptop? For all that I'm computer literate, I'm stubbornly NOT when it comes to admin...

Aargh. I seem to have completely fucked up my Internet somehow. It was being funky and the last time he was here the cable guy suggested I get a new wireless router. Guess mine was getting old. So I figured maybe now was the time. Hied mysel to target and got one. Got home, started to set it up. Seemed fine. Hooked it all up. Stuck my USB time-machine backup drive to it, tried to make that work. And then it all went to hell and now I can't even get it to give me Internet. Ugh!!

There is almost certainly something in the manual that tells you how to set the router back to default setting. Good chance it is a little recessed reset button you have to hold down for a certain number of seconds with a paper clip.

Yeah, that's what I did (though the first time I didn't hold it long enough and so was being driven batty because it SEEMED to restart, but then still showed up with the changed-not-factory network names!). It's late, so I'll have to figure out where I went wrong later (I think it was in the trying to set up the USB drive to be Time Machine, which is SUPPOSE to work/be easy, but I think screwed everything up). As long as it's working for the next week while I'm gone, otherwise I'd feel awful leaving my roommate with no internet!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I've got my iPhone 6 all set up with everything that was on my old 4s, except for one large video. I suspect I may have accidentally deleted it from the new one.
How can I get the video over to the new phone without starting over? I did upload the video from the old phone onto iCloud, and now I can see it in the "Shared" tab on Photos, but I want to download it onto the phone. Even just getting it so that I could use it as a source in the iMovie app would be great.
