So, if you get the “vanilla” version of Windows 8, you’ll need to purchase and install both the Windows 8 Pro Pack and Windows 8 Media Center Pack. No, these are not going to be free upgrades either.

I encountered this error message a couple of weeks ago while taking photos on my iPhone. Of course, this is good news for Apple, who would be more than happy to increase my monthly bill for more iCloud storage; but it’s bad news for me. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind giving Apple more cash if they had a more seamless web and Windows experience. Unfortunately, I find the entire Apple online ecosystem just way too clunky and confusing....

Motorola is jumping on the new smartphone announcement bandwagon with Apple, Nokia, Samsung and a host of other mobile companies. Recently Nokia announced two new smartphones and Apple’s iPhone 5 will also come out in a matter of days, as it has an official release date. The strange thing is that Motorola’s new smartphones are not running Jelly Bean, the latest installment of Google’s mobile operating system – Motorola Mobility is owned by Google, after all, so I’d expect them to get all the juicy new updates first....

I recently reported some details about the Nokia Lumia 920, the company’s future flagship device. It seems that great technology and wireless charging isn’t everything Lumia devices will bring. Nokia officially announced the new music streaming service which is aimed at US customers. The Nokia Music service will let you listen to 150 playlists on their Lumia smartphones. And it won’t be just any playlists – the lists will be curated by artists such as Rihanna, Lana del Ray and Lady Gaga....

How It Works In a perfect world, any kind of motion blur would be would be one-directional and constant. However, in real life, things are a bit different. The path of the motion blur depends greatly on the focal length, shutter speed, hand movement, and subject movement during the shot. What this means is that Photoshop’s job is to analyze the photo and try to determine this motion blur path in order to try and compensate for it....

The industry Jobs helped transform reacted globally. “Steve’s brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives,” Apple’s execs said in an official statement. “The world is immeasurably better because of Steve.” “There may be no greater tribute,” said U.S President Barack Obama, “to Steve’s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented....

We all have that family member, friend or work colleague who comes to us in times of distress asking for help – yup, they forgot their password and can’t login to their PC. And yes, it can happen to the experts too. For example, many years ago, I configured Windows to log in automatically since I was the only one using the computer. I started carrying my laptop to work and thought, I probably will need to re-enable the password, only to realize, I couldn’t remember it off the top of my head....

Everyone on the internet by now knows that Gmail is a free email service available to anyone. Some people even consider it a religious practice to set up as many Gmail accounts as they can and e-mail themselves pretending they have friends. Some people have asked me, “Why should I use e-mail when I have a cell phone and texting and voicemail?” A lot of the kids nowadays aren’t even sure what e-mail is and have no concept of writing someone a letter that doesn’t involve some three-letter slang acronym....

Toolbar Options Have you ever seen something like the screenshot below, in real life? I have, and because of it I am not a fan of toolbars. But, the reddit bars do it differently. These toolbars appear within the actual browser Window. But, they won’t show up unless you are visiting an external link from reddit itself. It’s rather groovy. Here are the three options: For Firefox, SocialiteFor Chrome, the reddit CompanionFor all browsers, the default toolbar...

Transferring large quantities of data between drives in XP and Vista is slow. But Windows 7 has improved the transfer speeds compared to earlier versions. Still, my favorite utility for this job is TeraCopy. It moves multiple files easily in an organized way. First, download and install TeraCopy. It’s free for personal use. It copies files faster by using dynamically adjusted buffers to reduce seek times. It also employs asynchronous copying to speed the file transfer between drives....
