How to Transfer Files, Pictures, Videos from Your iPhone without iTunes Using EaseUS MobiMover EaseUS MobiMover is a flexible piece of software that can help you quickly manage all the data stored on your Apple devices such as the iPhone and iPad. It’s purpose-built and slim vs. the fairly bloated iTunes for Windows. For this article, I downloaded the free version, which is fully featured and not limited in any way when it comes to transferring files from your iOS devices....

Here’s what happened to me: And then I didn’t. And then a week later, they were like, “Hey, man, we’re all set with the 25 pounds of organic flour and case of Clorox wipes you didn’t say you didn’t want. Should be there tomorrow!” And I was like, “Ohhhh noooo.” A few days later, I got an email confirming that yes, they were successful and they’d be refunding me the full amount....

Anyhow, I gave it a shot right when the blog post first came out, and was frustrated at my lack of success. The setup is fairly simple, all you have to do is copy and paste the script into the script editor (which I didn’t even know existed up until now). It’s all laid out in the Gmail Blog post. However, when I followed the steps, I kept on getting automated emails with the subject “Summary of failures” (fun fact: also the name of my forthcoming memoirs) that said: “TypeError: Cannot call method “getThreads” of null....

Note: Task Scheduler is a feature in XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8. Click Start and type: Task Scheduler in the Search box and hit Enter. Task Scheduler opens up. Expand Active Tasks to see a list of everything that is scheduled to run. Now scroll through the list and find the task you no longer want to run and double click it. For example, here I’m canceling the Disk Cleanup task I created....

CMD is also known as the Command Shell. In fact, people most often refer to it as just ‘command’. It’s a tool within Windows that allows users to perform tasks by typing letters and words. For the more experienced readers, you may recall this as MS-DOS commands. MS-DOS comes from MicroSoft Disk Operating System. Those commands are housed in a file called command.com, tucked deep inside of Windows. You’ll also find that some commands in the command shell invoke small programs....

Connecting to Networks in Windows 10 Connecting to the Internet: Wireless & Ethernet There are many ways to connect to the Internet. Using a wireless network is one of the common ways. Most Wi-Fi networks are secured, meaning you need to have a password to join. Some networks might be unsecured (open) and allow anyone to connect to them (like at a Coffee Shop.) But for secured networks, you’ll need to contact the Network Admin, or at a coffee shop or hotel, the person at the desk – to give you a password....

Say Hello to the A15 Bionic Each new iPhone series always brings a new chipset, which is always better than the one before it. And yet, after 15 iPhone generations, more than a few would-be users might be wondering how much faster the iPhone 13 series is compared to previous ones and whether the difference is that big of a deal. What Apple Says The A15 Bionic is found on all four 2021 iPhone models, including the iPhone 13, iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13 Pro, and the iPhone 13 Pro Max....

The new modern interface in the OS is optimized for use on a tablet or touch screen. While that’s great on a touch device, it’s not well suited for a traditional PC with a keyboard and mouse. But, you can stay in the desktop as much as you like. I’ve been using Windows 8 for the past year through its various stages of development, and currently I use it full time on my main production box....

Outlook Email Microsoft Outlook has a cool feature that allows you to drag emails to the Calendar and create an appointment or reminder. If you get an email with the details about an important event, you’ll want to add that to your calendar. Instead of launching the calendar separately and filling in the details, you can drag that mail into the Calendar icon. Another way to move a message to your calendar is to right-click the message and select Move > Calendar....

This week Sprint actually pushed through the official Jelly Bean 4.1 update for the Samsung Galaxy SII Epic Touch 4G (SPH-D710). Even though this is the exact same version that was leaked weeks ago, many are (myself included) almost in disbelief that it’s official. It will be interesting to see if this is the last or more updates continue to be released. Unlike previous updates this one will only be available through Samsung Kies software, and not over-the-air....

Film maker Scott DW teamed up with Halfbrick Studios — who also created Jetpack Joyride — to help create his awesome fan-made video, even creating his own dubstep track to be used in the video. As you’ll see in the video (below), the Fruit Ninja can be seen riding through a forest to meet up with his Sensei in order to help train him for the battle with endless fruit he’s about to experience....

No DVD Playback Support I inserted a DVD into my Windows 8 Release Preview computer just to see what it does. It sees the DVD, but there’s no native playback. Microsoft is taking out codecs if previously included in every release. It just read the data files on the optical disc. VLC Media Player First, take a look at our favorite media player – VLC. It has been a mandatory program on all of my Windows and Mac systems....

The normal retail price for a 3 PC license is $79.95, so that’s 75% off. This is not a download license, it’s physical CD-ROM that has the software on it, the box including a license number.

Here’s how it works: To get the free voucher for this test you will have to visit a testing location in person and ask about the “Virtualization Challenge.” The terms and conditions state that each voucher is good for 2 free attempts at the test. They will probably try to sell you a training class package but you are not obligated to purchase or attend them. Important Links: Find a testing location near you and setup an appointment....

Snooze Notifications If you get a notification you don’t want to deal with right away but need later, you can use Oreo’s notification snooze option. You can snooze a notification and set it to appear at a set amount of time. When you get a notification, swipe on it slowly either to the right or left until you see the gear and clock icon and tap the clock. The notification will snooze for one hour by default, but you can change it to 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or two hours....

Google Deal with Disney We’ve been saying for years that it’s only a matter of time before YouTube goes head-to-head with Netflix, the TV networks, and the cable industry to become a full, end-to-end provider for the music and movie studios. And that’s what YouTube is getting with the Disney deal. The next step as we see it will be original YouTube content–quality studio-grade content, not zit-popping-in-the-mirror vids. Why run a show on NBC or HBO if the viewers are on YouTube?...

I’ve worked in Information Security at the Corporate level for a number of years and what I’ve found is people tend to say some very inappropriate things in chat vs. email. Normally this is because many employees view email as being very formal and chat as transitory, kind of like a phone call. After all, no one is listening to those chat conversation right? Wrong. As I’ve explained, Google Chat records those IM chat conversations by default which makes them all easily discoverable should your company be served with a data discovery subpoena....
