With the same idea as the General Nonsense equivalent, this thread can be used to ask questions when it doesn't merit it's own thread:


How do you get the iTunes icon on your toolbar on Windows? I mean the one that is at the bottom right of the toolbar. I used to have it but it doesn't exist anymore, it's just better for skipping songs rather than bringing up the program every time.

A two second glance at Google would have returned you this..


iTunes > Preferences > Advanced > Minimize iTunes to System Tray


..considerably less time than it took to post your thread..

Possible true but I am a man of the people and this thread is for everyone to use.

Depending on what connections your laptop and TV support, you would only require a suitable cable, then select the appropriate AV channel using your TV remote.

I use my HDMI cable, that I usually use for my HD tv to connect to my PS3. Obviously you need a laptop with that port and an HD tv.

My HTC Legend is making a weird static noise from the speaker. It's as if it's feeding back something, even when i'm not using it for a call.

What's that all about?

That's not a quick question, but a quick search of the forum will unearth the answer for you. There's been a few threads on that topic.

Any ideas on how to turn the 3G on(on a Xperia X10 mini). Updated the software and it's now not doing it automatically.

Did you get it? I don't have one of these devices but I assume there's a widget you could download to turn your data connection on/off.

edit: quick search said "Data Traffic" widget does this.

Failing that you'll have to dig deeper into your settings and see what's there.

Also, are you capable of G, HSPA or Edge?

I got the 3G/G before I updated the software. I'll have a look and see what I can dig up

I assume it works similar to mine (HTC Desire). When you connect the phone to the PC via. the USB, do you get a prompt on the phone to "mount as disk drive" ?
If so then choose this option on your phone and then on your computer browse to "My Computer" and there should be a new drive called something like "Removable F:" or "Removable G:".
This is your phone and you will find all your pictures, videos and music etc in here. You can then just copy and paste these files onto a directory on your PC somewhere.

Anyone know how you would go about taking goals you've scored on pro on the ps3 and bringing them onto my computer?

Presumably whatever filter prevents the speaker from bleeding into the microphone is broken. Take it back to the shop.

Is the plug blue or white? Blue is VGA, white is DVI. You can get an adaptor for about two quid anyway.

This is a silly question but do you need an HDMI cable for your HD tv to show HD from your PS3 to the screen? I just use the normal scart lead but the picture isnt great when playing dvds.

If you don't use an HDMI cable you won't get an HDMI signal. Simples.

It would be easier if you tell us what you've already got and we tell you if it will work or not

[ChampionsElect]

Minimum;

128MB Supported Chipsets - Nvidia FX 5900 Ultra or greater; ATI Radeon 9800 or greater; Intel 82915G/82910GL

Then it wont work with 2011!

That was kind of my point, there isnt much point telling you the minimum specs if you dont know what you have and chances are if you dont know what you have, and arent capable of going to the website and looking up the minimum specs , then they arent likely to mean anything to you anyway.
