Flash Drive 101: Copying Files, Removing Viruses

Image
Learn some basic flash-drive survival skills, like how to copy files to a USB drive and protect a drive from viruses. The other day, my wife asked me how to copy a PowerPoint presentation to a flash drive so she could take it with her to school. I was a little shocked. My very own wife doesn't know how to do this? I've failed as a husband! To make sure I don't fail you, dear readers, allow me to explain the process of copying files to flash drives. Most of you probably know how, but I'll wager it's a mystery to at least some users. There are two basic ways to go about this (both of which start with you plugging the drive into a USB port).

Reader Jay wants to know how many USB "splitters" he can use with his desktop. The system has four USB ports in the back and two in the front; Jay says he's already using one splitter, but needs two additional USB ports. Holy mackerel, Jay, how many devices do you have? (I'm a power user myself, and only four of my desktop's six ports are occupied.)

In fact, a PC is theoretically capable of accommodating up to 127 USB ports. However, the reality is a bit different. By "splitting" a USB port, you reduce the power available to the newly added ports. Whether or not that's a problem depends on the kinds of devices you plug in, but I strongly recommend using only powered USB hubs. They cost a little more, and force you to find yet another free AC outlet, but they virtually eliminate the issues that tend t...

10 Ways to Watch TV and Movies on Your Apple iPad

The iPad's big screen and long battery life make it the perfect gadget for watching TV and movies. Here are the 10 best ways to do just that. When it was first released, many called the Apple iPad, "a big iPod touch." That's debatable, but it does describe one of the best things about the iPad: its big, bright 9.7-inch screen makes it ideal for movie and TV watching. Throw in the iPad's robust battery life and obvious portability, and you've got a top-notch on-the-go entertainment device. Plenty of developers and media companies have figured this out, so there has been a steady stream of new ways to watch TV and movies on your iPad that don't involve iTunes. Some, like Netflix and Hulu, are apps that you download, while others are iPad-optimized sites that help you find and watch the best TV and movies the Web has to offer. If you want to watch TV and movies from your own collection, there are apps for that, and there are even products that let you watch l...
