How do I get rid of "Sent from My iPhone" messages? (link)

Removing the “Sent from My iPhone” Signature

This is actually the same on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, though we’ll focus on the iPhone for obvious reasons:

  • Tap on the “Settings” app
  • Tap on “Mail, Contacts, Calendars”
  • Scroll down a ways and then tap on “Signature”
  • Tap “Clear”, or just select all the text and delete it manually

Now exit from Settings. Any time a new mail message has been composed, sent, or replied to, the iPhone will no longer attach the “Sent from my iPhone” message with any emails.

How can I move my music (iTunes)to a new computer? (link)

For this example, I'll go from a Windows machine to Apple, but the process should work in reverse, as well.

If you want to make this easy, you'll need to move all your music into the iTunes folder. There's an easy way to do this: In iTunes go the Advanced menu and choose Consolidate library.

 

Any music not already in the iTunes folder will not be deleted. You'll just have two copies. One inside the iTunes folder and one outside.

 

Now quit iTunes and go to My Documents, then My Music, and you should see the iTunes folder. Now you need a place to put that folder. It could be an external drive, a network drive, USB or the fasts is to use a jump drive. Whatever you use just needs to be big enough to hold all your data. Right click on the folder and choose Properties to find out how big it is.

 

Drag the iTunes folder and copy it to wherever you're temporarily storing it.

               

Then connect the storage device to the new computer. In this case a Mac.

                1. Install and launch iTunes. If iTunes asks to find your music say "no."

                2. Quit iTunes.

                3. Go to your Music folder.

                4. Move the existing iTunes folder to the trash.

                5. Copy the old iTunes folder off your storage device and put it where the old folder was.

                6. Open iTunes again.

                You should see your familiar library with ratings, play counts, etc.

How do I get my laptop computer to display on the projector? (link)

Most laptop computers require you to turn on the external monitor output in order to send the computer image to the projector.
  
Follow these steps for WINDOWS based laptops:
-Be sure you have a proper cable connected from your laptop's external monitor port directly to the projector or to the classroom podium connectors.
-Press and hold the Fn key on your keyboard (usually located in the lower left).
-Press the specific key for your laptop (F1-F12) that controls your external monitor port.  The key is usually indicated by an external monitor icon or the words "CRT/LCD".  For example, on a Dell laptop the proper keystroke combination is Fn+F8. Other brands may use Fn+F5, Fn+F7 or another combination.  Check your owner's manual if you are unsure.
-Repeat the keystroke combination if the laptop does not project after the first attempt.

ForMAC laptops:
-An adaptor cable is usually necessary to connect a MAC laptop to one of the classroom systems or directly to a projector. There are several different styles that are model dependent.  This cable normally comes with your laptop.  See your owner's manual for more details.
-Hook the adaptor cable directly to the projector or to the classroom podium connectors.
-It is best to turn on your MAC laptop after making the proper cable connections.  The laptop will see the external monitor and set itself up to send an image to it.

How do I set the region on a Macintosh computer? (link)

Assuming you're talking about the region for the DVD device, it's a difficult question to answer. The only real way to set it is to insert a disc into the optical drive and wait for the regional interface to appear, and then select your region. I do believe, however, that the region can only be changed so many times before it becomes locked in place. Alternatively, you can download a piece of software known as VLC Media Player, which ignores the region protocol and will allow you to play media from any region so long as you have it set to the default media player instead of Apple's DVD Player.
