Need help registering a domain name, setting up cheap web hosting, or figuring out how to export from Palm to Outlook? Whenever I figure something out I post it here for the common good. Hope it helps.
I just bought Adobe Premiere Elements 7.0 and I love it! Or at least I assume I would if it worked the way it’s designed to work. But instead of working, I’m having two major problems:
1. While capturing video from my DV camera, I get frequent errors that say “Unknown Recorder Error” at which point the capturing pauses. If I…
Ever since I figured out how to do this I’ve had a mountain of people asking me how, so here it is–how to add your blog feed to your Facebook profile, so that every time you publish a post on your blog, it will show up as a posted item on your Facebook Wall, and then you won’t have to…
I can understand why Wordpress doesn’t build in this functionality, after all, they can only do so much and they rely on the community to created plugins for this kind of thing, but I don’t understand why nobody has created a simple plugin to allow Wordpress users to specify that they want a different number of posts to display on…
Contrary to past tech-support posts, I’m asking you a question, rather than answering one. I have Comcast high-speed Internet service at my home. We recently moved, and so I called Comcast to transfer the service to the new address, which happens to be about 100 feet away from the old one. Of course Comcast wasn’t able to make the transfer…
You’re here because you’ve heard one of the following terms–RSS, RSS feeds, subscribing to RSS, subscribing to feeds, subscribing to blogs, blogs, blog feeds, etc.–and you’re interested but don’t know where to begin. Well, you’ve come to the right place and we’re going to help you out.
Useless Lesson #1 - RSS stands for “really simple syndication,” and now you can…
Believe it or not, I like to use outdated technology. Why? Because it’s good enough for what I do. My cellphone is a free Nokia giveaway that I’ve had for three years. I’ve been using Outlook Express for years rather than converting to Outlook. But enough is no longer enough, and I’m converting. This week I’m converting to Outlook, and…
My last post told you how to register a domain name for your website. But a domain name, URL, or website address isn’t a website any more than a street address is a piece of property. If your domain name is a street address in a phone book and your website is a house then your web host is the…
In running a web design firm I find myself explaining some things so many times to our clients and then I thought “Why not just set up a page on the blog explaining in detail how to do it and then just send them the link?” Then I think “Why didn’t I do this sooner?”
Thus, here is the first in what…
I recently downloaded iTunes 7.0.2 for Windows XP because I got a new iPod and in order to use it you have to have 7.0.2. That was a few days ago. Yesterday iTunes started freezing up within ten seconds of starting, and although whatever was playing on it would continue playing, I couldn’t access the program in any way unless I…
FireFox Release 1.5.0.7 for Windows, English.
You, like me, were excited to upgrade to the FireFox 2.0 browser last week. You installed it, and then you quickly found out that it freezes up regularly. For me, it’s so regular that I’ve been forced to make a decision–install the older version of Firefox, or switch to IE. Since I liked the latest…
So you’ve installed Windows Media Player 10, and now some of your video plays upside down, or doesn’t play at all. You’ve realized you had it better with Windows Media Player 9, but you’ve tried everything to uninstall it, or reinstall 9, but you just can’t get it to work. Yep, I was once like you. Until I found this…
