  • Recovering information from broken iPod Touch?

    I have a very old iPod Touch, I believe it is the 2nd generation. However I stopped using it because I cracked the screen and never bothered to get it fixed (apple probably still charges 200 to fix it, ridiculous) but I was wondering if there is any way to get info out of it. The screen lights up still, but I cant use iTunes to get the info because it is locked with my passcode, and I cannot input my passcode for the reason above. Any way to go around this?

  • Games that bring words to life?

    I've been interested in this game called Scribblenauts recently and have wondered if there is any other out there similar to it. I think the concept of writing out a word or object and having it come to life is really interesting and fun. However Scribblenauts is not on Mac and I was wondering if there is any other game like it.

  • How to make a simple client permission contract for Photography?

    I have a friend who takes pictures for fun, however she does own a professional camera and has an Instagram account dedicated to the photos she s taken so far.

    Recently someone has direct messaged her asking if she d be willing to take pictures of them for a price or what not.

    This is awesome news because she has great skill and someone has noticed that. However I am scared that she will be scammed or taken advantage of and she could get sued for taking photos of someone without some form of written permission, like a contract for example. Is there any way to make a simple contract that allows a photographer to easily take pictures of someone without getting in trouble?

  • Why aren t all scientists atheist?

    I m currently taking a History course and was having a conversation with my professor about why scientists aren t all atheist.

    I ask this because in a nutshell, science is meant to explain how the world works using math, logical, and rational thinking. Religion does not do that. How could a scientist who is trying to prove that world is made up of math and chemical reactions, also be someone who believes in God or any other higher being from any other religion. I would like to know what others think. All opinions are welcomed.

  • Do you fully erase pencil marks from paper?

    I was erasing some calculus work recently. And of course, if you're deep into a function or equation and notice that you were wrong at some early point, the whole thing is incorrect. So I have to go ahead and erase everything, however I randomly got curious and wondered if pencil marks are ever fully erased from a paper. I guess it technically depends on how much pressure you put into it, but even if you don't apply much pressure, is it ever completely erased even to a microscopic level? =]

  • Games for low spec laptop?

    Okay so here are my specs..

    Pentium Dual Core CPU T4400 2.20GHz

    RAM 2GB

    Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset

    Video card 128MB

    Note that I accept almost any game. I do have Left 4 Dead and no it does not run smoothly on my computer even though I've seen everyone say that it has low specs requirements. I can run GTA SA, but it still lags sometimes. So can anyone give me a list of games you think will run on my computer .-.

  • Building a gaming computer tips?

    So I'm thinking about building a gaming computer. And I wanted to get some insight in what you guys think. First i just want to say that budget cannot pass $500. I know that's pretty low for a gaming computer, but the thing is I'm not that crazy about graphics. I just want to build a computer that can run any current 2014 game smoothly in normal settings. So i really don't even know where to begin so i thought that many you guys could just throw in what you think. I've heard its more efficient to build a gaming computer than to buy one so that's why I'm asking you guys. So just give me what you think is good. I'm not so good at looking at video cards or motherboards or processors and telling if they're good. So that's why I'm asking. Thank you

  • Offline rpg games for pc with low graphics?

    Okay so I'm looking for offline rpg games. They don't have to be free. Any game is good as long as it can run on a lower than average laptop. My laptop can't run fallout so don't even mention any games that look or have graphics such as fallout or skyrim. Otherwise I'm open to opinions. I'm also kinda craving some zombies so maybe have some thought into that when you give me your list. Thank you ^^

  • Using AOMEI Backupper to create an image file?

    Okay so my computer does not have an image file, or the install.wim as the smarter people call it. I'm currently using AOMEI Backupper tool to do a backup of my computer and create a image file so that I can refresh my computer because it has been acting weird lately, but the problem is I'm not very sure how this is going to work out. After this backup is done where do i put the file so that my refresh pc option becomes available without the need of the installation CD or Restore Media because that was originally my issue since i do not have either one of those. So can anyone help. Preferably someone who has done this before. And I am running on Windows 8.

  • How to refresh my pc windows 8?

    Okay so i didn't upgrade my Toshiba laptop's windows 8. It was originally windows 7 and it was upgraded by someone else who did not give me a single information about the disk or anything else that was maybe later required. So basically here's the problem. Short and sweet. My computer seems to have a messed up file and now won't work or even give me the sign in option unless i use safe mode. So I was thinking Is there maybe a way to refresh my pc without the use of the disk? I have seen many people talk about the Install.wim file, but i do not have that file so can someone maybe tell me if it's possible to maybe get the option to refresh my pc without that file or if there is a way to get it from another computer and be able to be transferred using a USB? Any help would be appreciated.

  • Very low spec computer. Need rpg games?

    Okay so first of all i want to say that my laptop is a complete piece of feces. Here are the specs

    Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU T4400 2.20 GHz

    Ram 4.00G b (2.84 GB actually useable)

    Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family

    I dont think you need anything more. You get the point. So I have Fallout New Vegas and even at the lowest settings it's like pictures everywhere. TES Oblivion runs kinda okay at low settings, but eh. So I'm just throwing in some games so you can have a good idea as to what might run better or not, but i basically just want any RPG game that's singleplayer. It doesnt have to be limited just to that, but I would prefer it that way. So any suggestions? I'm planning to get KOTOR 2, but still not sure how well it'll run. So just throw your list out there.

  • Microsoft Office related files aren't opening by default?

    So I'm sorry if the question is misleading, I wasnt sure how to ask this, but I have Microsoft Office 2010 I believe and for some reason I have tried almost everything I could for it to show in the Open with Default Program or whatever it's called and nothing seems to work. The only one in the Default Programs is Microsoft Outlook, but everything else such as Microsoft Powerpoint, OneNote, and Excel are still acting up on me. Microsoft Word so far has seem to also been working, but I looked around and simply can't find an answer that will solve this. I found some answers having to do with changing or fixing the Registry, but I dont wanna mess with that stuff since I know it's important. Anyone know of an easier solution? I have tried to go to a normal .xlsx file which should open with Microsoft Excel and I have been trying to change which program it opens with for the past hour or so and when i click Microsoft Excel and click OK it just kind of like ignores it and nothing happens. Please help T~T

    "Bad Image" Error ESET Smart Security 7?

    Alright so I've had ESET for around a year now and I haven't made a single scan for around 8 months..( I know..crazy. It's a long story ) So last night I made my first scan. And In some ways I regret it. It made most of my games run a lot faster and it did find a lot of viruses that were hidden in my computer making it very slow, but now almost every single program that i open, it creates a " Bad Image " error that is very annoying because even when i restart the computer i get around 10-15 Bad Image errors of many programs that I have on my computer. Is there a way to stop this? It's annoying. Even opening Google Chrome It always it detects a " Potential threat found " and says it's unable to clean it, but don't let me know every 5 seconds if you can't clean it then =.=. Can anyone help me over here. Any help would be appreciated.

    EDIT:

    From what I've noticed every program that has

    c:\progra~1\suppor~1\suppor~1.dll

    Is getting blocked by ESET. Just incase that helps in anyway.

  • How much slower would a wifi extension make my wifi?

    I have a Netgear WR3000 ( I think I'm missing a letter ) WiFi Extender. I've been looking around and apparently WiFi Extenders can slow down your original WiFi a lot. Some even by half, but then I searched some more online and found out some WiFi extenders don't slow down the internet as much as others. I wanted to know if maybe my WiFi Extender is one of those. It's hard to tell the difference sometimes, but sometimes it does feel like my WiFi gets slower at one point. Any help would be appreciated. =D
