ayrunitedfw Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Came across an iTunes related problem earlier. Was transferring songs from one computer to another by putting them on a pen drive. Dragged and dropped them into my iTunes and it was working fine however when I took the pen drive out and tried to play the song it came up saying "this song could not be used as the original role could not be found" would you like to locate it?" Then when I put the pen drive back in it worked again with no issues. What's the problems here? Will the song(s) play if I put them on to my iPod Thanks in advance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving pen drive elsewhere would have an invalid file path. or it may be DRM locked if you have acquired it legally 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fraser Fyvie Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Any videos/vines etc played on my iPhone has started lagging and taking ages to load. Was completely fine before so not sure what's happened. I've tried deleting some apps to clear memory but no change. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Thompson Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 ImageUploadedByPie & Bovril1398199818.546950.jpg How do i fix this? Only one laptop in house and it is this one Do you have any other devices, like tablets or mobile phones? Could be one of them. To fix it, make sure your IP address on the laptop is set to DHCP, or 'obtain an IP address automatically'. Instructions are different for different operating systems but they should be easy to find on google 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 What would the technically inclined pick out of the HTC one mini and the S4 mini? Budget and the fact I have a tablet have lead me to these two in the hunt for a new phone. Main thing for me is the best camera I can get, I'm not a heavy data user. Thanks in advance :-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I took delivery of a Wi-Fi Home Hotspot 500 Kit from BT today. It only took 5 minutes to set up then another 5 minutes to connect six devices. Has anyone ever had any problems with this device? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballymoneyyin Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 I would like to learn some basics of Programming and coding. Does anyone have any recommendations for beginners to learn for free? I have been looking at free lectures from Massachusetts Instutute of Technology, who use a programme called Python. Is this a good place to start? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to get into Web or mobile development there's not a lot of point learning python. What kind of thing are you interested in? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
