Can I switch a Metro PCS phone to Verizon?
Possible - depends on the phone. You’d want to start at Bring Your Own Phone or Device - BYOD and find your device from MetroPCS to ensure it’s compatible. You’ll also need to unlock your MetroPCS phone - instructions and a list of un-lockable phones are at MetroPCS® Phone Unlock Policy . You will not be able to take full advantage of the Verizon network with most phones - they have an odd 700mhz band that very few phones except VZW phones can access. But you should be able to use the 1800/1900 mhz bands without problem. You may not get all the VZW specific features and software on your phone but basic talk / text / data should work.
Help: How do I flash my Verizon to MetroPCS myself?
You don't flash a Verizon phone onto MetroPCS GSM vs CDMA / Unlocking vs Flashing. Flashing is something that you do between companies on the CDMA network (Sprint and Verizon). However now that MetroPCS is a part of T-Mobile they are no longer on the CDMA network they are on the GSM network. CDMA and GSM use a different technology. Companies that use the GSM network rely on SIM cards and require the phone to be unlocked when transferring between GSM carriers.However you may be in luck because in almost every other country they do not use the CDMA network they use the GSM network. That means if your Verizon phone is unlocked for international use all you have to do is obtain a new SIM card from MetroPCS and they can switch it over for you. This will allow your phone to work for texting and calling but will cause problems when it comes to transmitting data; Internet (besides wifi) will not work, including picture messages.Best advice is to sell your Verizon phone and port your number from Verizon to MetroPCS which will give you a larger instant rebate towards a new phone.
I need to register my laptop to Microsoft or something?
I have a laptop, it's a presario compaq C300, and runs on windows xp. The computer was running really slowly, so i was trying to use the homemade recovery discs that the geek squad guy made. Instead my aunt told me that if i hit F2 during the black screen during the startup, which I did. It gave me two options, one being system restore, and it said that it would just make things run like when you just bought the laptop. It pretty much restarted the whole thing and so when I was setting up the laptop, it asked me to register, but i didnt feel like going to get the information like the product key and all that so i skipped it. Now when I try to hook up to my wireless router, it says it has a great connection, but that it could not find a certificate to hook me up to the network. Anyways, I tried to just hit F2 again and re-do the set up process so i could register it, but it didnt go to the menu, instead just continued starting up. I'm trying to figure out how to either re-do the laptop setup so i can just re-register it, or figure out how to use the recovery discs. by the way, I tried just sticking the 1st of 12 cds in while the computer was running and i opened it in "my computer" but there were just a few files and nothing recovered anything
How do you play a DVD on one PC and watch the video on another?
There are two ways.You can network them and share the working DVD drive on PC A and use it as a drive on PC B. The PC B will access the data as if it was a drive on PC B. The actual data will be played by the media app on PC BYou can remote control PC A (the one with working DVD Drive) with PC B. You use your PC B mouse and keyboard and a screen window displaying the content of PC A’s video display; the mouse and keyboard inputs on A are controlled by B. You then remotely execute a media play app on PC A and it accesses the data and makes a video display which is echoed over the network on the window on PC B that you can watch. Usually you can make it full screen.Windows comes with a remote control app called Remote Desktop. It must be enabled at the host end and invoked and executed at the remote control end.
Is it possible to connect 2 computers with a USB cable?
You mean with a cable like that? Absolutely. It is ABSOLUTELY POSSIBLE to connect two computers with that cable. However it is most definitely PROBABLE that if you do use that cable there to connect two computers, you will damage one, if not both of the computers.You didn’t ask if it was possible to connect two computers with a USB cable so you could transfer information.You didn’t ask if it was possible to connect two computers with a USB cable so you could share an internet connection.You didn’t ask if it was possible to connect two computers with a USB cable to actually do something useful.You just asked if it was possible to connect two computers with a USB cable. And it is.Now, there once was a USB Transfer kit that had those two ends on it…But see that big huge thing in the middle they are going out of their way to emphasize and show off? That thing is what makes the difference between frying one or both computers… and actually facilitating a transfer of information.This is a Belkin Easy Transfer Cable… and it was made to use with Windows 7, to be able to transfer information easily between one computer and another.So if you had asked… Is it possible to connect two Windows 7 computers with a USB cable to transfer information… I would have said “Yes” and pointed you to that device. Why? You would have provided information about the task you were looking to accomplish and information about the specific systems. Note how I’ve been specific about the OS here. Why? That cable was made to use functions of Windows 7. It requires different, specific software to work with Windows 8… but there are no Windows 8 or 10 compatible drivers. You’d have to use the Windows 7 drivers, and the Windows 8 specific software to TRY to get it to work on Windows 10, and you likely won’t. We gave up on getting the one we had at work, to work with Windows 10, and switched to PC Mover software over the network.Is it possible to connect 2 computers with a USB cable?You just asked if it was possible. It is. Whether or not there is a device to allow what YOU specifically have in mind to work… that’s another story.
