how to install IOS 7 on iPhone 4 4s 5

How to install IOS 7 on iPhone 4 ,4s,5



You should  always perform a backup before applying any major new firmware release. If you back up your devices to iCloud or sync with iTunes via Wi-Fi, temporarily disable both options.
To disable iCloud backup, toggle the iCloud Backup switch to OFF under iOS Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup. To disable iTunes Wi-Fi sync, tether the device to a Mac or PC via a USB cable and uncheck the “Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi” box under your device’s Summary tab in iTunes.
iTunes-11-Welcome-to-your-new-phone



Make sure you’re running the most up-to-date version of iTunes (you should only download the latest version of iTunes from Apple’s website). Fire up the program and choose your device in the upper right part of the iTunes window. Should iTunes warn you there’s a new version of iPhone firmware update available, just cancel the prompt.

itunes11
Click on the device’s name in the upper-right part of the iTunes window, navigate to the Summary tab and hit the “Back Up Now”. Fix yourself a cup of coffee as creating a backup on your computer may take a while, depending on its contents and storage capacity.
iTunes-11-Back-up-iPhone
While we’re at it, update your iOS apps by going to the Updates tab in the iTunes Apps section. Now’s also a good time to copy the device backup file to an external drive (PC) or initiate a manual Time Capsule backup. To do the latter, just choose Back Up Now from your Mac’s menu bar. If you don’t see the option, tick the “Show Time Machine in menu bar” box in System Preferences > Time Machine.
Screen-Shot-2013-09-17-at-22.19.11
To see where iTunes stores iOS device backup files on your computer, choose Preferences from the iTunes menu and navigate to the Devices tab. In case you were wondering, iOS backups keep all your app data and settings, sans your media and apps themselves because these items already exist in iTunes/iCloud.

Keeping a device backup on your computer is not only a precautionary measure, it’ll also speed up restoring your device should you encounter any issues – as opposed to restoring from an iCloud backup.
iTunes-11-Restore-iPhone
You’re now ready to install iOS 7: hit the Restore iPhone button in iTunes and wait until the software downloads and verifies the latest iOS 7 build with iOSDownload.

How to create synchronized multimedia PowerPoint presentations

Do you want to create multimedia enriched PowerPoint presentations or  want to sync a PowerPoint presentation with live audio or video stream so that output can be viewed and shared online or on a DVD? Are you looking for a tool using which you can create class lectures comprised of  video synced with PowerPoint slides and animations? Here are two awesome tools; authorPOINT and Microsoft Producer which let you do exactly the same.

authorPOINT


authorPOINT is a PowerPoint plugin from authorGEN. authorPOINT lets you create presentations with live audio or video from  devices like  webcam, handy-cam, or any other USB or fire wire based device. You can also use pre-recorded audio/video files (AVI, WMV, WAV and WMA) and sync them with PowerPoint.

Output plays video or audio side by side with PowerPoint slides. authorPOINT also lets you annotate on slides. Capture process of authorPOINT is pretty simple. authorPOINT is capabale of creating Flash as well as HTML output which you can host on your server and embed on your website or blog. authorPOINT  retains all animation and sound affects in Flash as well as HTML output.

authorPOINT not only lets you create multimedia enriched presentations but also provides free online hosting and sharing on its PowerPoint sharing platform, authorSTREAM. authorPOINT is compatible with Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, XP and Vista and  runs on 32 Bit OS Versions only.


authorPOINT presentation uploaded on authorSTREAM

See more presentations by aplite | Upload your own PowerPoint presentations

Price and discounts
authorPOINT  costs $299 for a single copy. If you are a education customer, you can apply for a special educational discount of $99 on their buy now page.

Player branding
If you want to get a custom player for output created by authorPOINT, you need to shell out $200 more. authorPOINTs Unbranded player has no logo or any other reference to authorGEN. You can buy it for $ 200 from authorPOINTs Buy Now page. You can also send your own logo in gif, png or flash (recommended) format, and they will put that in custom player instead of theirs.

Microsoft Producer

Like authorPOINT, Microsoft Producer allows you to get an existing presentation file, capture and synchronize video and audio narration, add additional media content, and produce a unified set of content ready for viewing in a browser on your intranet , on the web or on a DVD.

Producer is powerful tool for e-learning, corporate communications and sales. You can use Producer to capture video, audio, and still images from a Web camera, a video camera  (digital or analog), or from your computer screen. You can also use Producer to import existing Microsoft PowerPoint presentations, Windows Media files, still images, and HTML files, and then synchronize narrations with your video and PowerPoint presentations. You can learn more about Microsoft Producer here. Microsoft Producer can be used with PowerPoint 2007 or PowerPoint 2010 and  on Windows 2000 Service Pack 3; Windows 7; Windows Vista and  XP.

Unlike authorPOINT which can create Flash output, Producer gives you output only in HTML format.

Pricing
Its absolutely free. You can download Microsoft Producer here.

Using authorPOINT or Microsoft Producer you can create high quality, engaging, Rich-Media business, training  or sales presentations.

Both authorPOINT as well as Microsoft Producer may require you to download MS Office Animation Runtime to view the output. However, authorPOINT s Flash output do not require Animation runtime but do need Flash player.

How to Install Windows from USB Disk



Install Windows from USB device



Today Im gonna share a very useful tip with you. In this post, you will learn - how to create a bootable USB disk (pen drive) for Windows/ Linux. And this is the easiest way to install Windows from USB disk. Earlier, I wrote about creating bootable Windows disk. 


If your PC doesnt have a DVD drive, or if your DVD drive is not functioning properly, you can use your pen drive to install Windows. And notebooks dont have DVD drive usually. To install Windows there, you must require a bootable pen drive. 



This post applies to:
  • Windows 7
  • Windows 8
  • Windows 8.1

I havent tested this technique for Windows XP. Maybe this will also work there. But Im not 100% sure about XP. 


In order to install Windows from USB Flash Drive, you need the following tools:
  • A USB Flash Drive/ Pen Drive (8 GB Recommended)
  • Windows ISO Image
  • Rufus - to create bootable USB disk

Step 1 - Get Windows ISO Image

Hopefully, all of you got an 8 GB pen drive. Now your task is to get an ISO image of your Windows. If you have a Windows Installation disk, you can prepare the ISO file using ISO Creator or by Infra Recorder. 


Step 2 - Create Bootable Disk

Now youve to create a bootable flash drive by Rufus. And then youre ready to install Windows from pen drive! Download Rufus from this link. Its just 616 KB. 

  1. Insert your pen drive. Back up the necessary files  of it (if any). And perform a quick format. 
  2. Run Rufus from your PC just by double click. 
  3. Device - Your pen drive, Partition Scheme - for BIOS and UEFI, File System - NTFS, Cluster Size - Default, Type your Windows Name in Volume > Choose Quick Format > Create a Bootable Disk using ISO Image > Hit on the CD icon and locate your ISO file > Select Extended Labels and Icon Files > Hit on the Start button to launch the operation.
  4. This may take a few minutes. Then you will get a confirmation message. Done! 

You can follow the image below:


Rufust - Creates bootable usb disk



Step 3 - Boot from USB Flash Drive

Restart your system. To access BIOS settings, you need to press F1 in case of Intel Mainboard. Gigabyte users will press Del key. And most other mainboards use F1 key to access to the BIOS utility. 

Now depending on your BIOS version, there could be different interface styles. But the basic option you need to find is - The Boot Priority or The Boot Order

To install the Windows from a USB disk, you need to select - Boot from USB Drive. Now Save and Exit from BIOS. Restart your PC. Now you will see the following message - 


Press any key to boot from USB...


Now press enter to start installing Windows from USB disk! If you face any problem, please leave a comment . . .




Wait a Minute!


When your PC copies files from the disk and restarts, the installation process may start again. If this happens to you, simply remove your pen drive and continue the installation process.

How to Download a Part of YouTube Video


Download a Part of YouTube Video using Clip Converter


Most people download the whole YouTube video even when he needs a small portion of that video. And certainly this wastes huge amount of data as well as valuable time. But you can easily cut an YouTube video and download only the part you need out of a large video! 



Background Story

Couple of weeks ago I was searching for an old Bengali song on YouTube. But it was not available in the largest video sharing site of the world! Fortunately, I got the full movie instead of the song. And that movie is 2.5 hours long. What should I do now? Download the full movie for a 5-minute song? Even the 3gp format of this movie is over 400 MB. When the song is only 12 MB. 

Though I know hundreds of different ways to download videos from YouTube, but I never think of downloading a small part. Then I googled to find out a way. And you will be happy to know that I got something there! Today Im gonna share how to download a part of YouTube video instead of full video. 



Clip Converter: Free Online Media Recorder

Actually Im gonna talking about a site which will do the cutting process for you - Clip Converter. With the help of this site, you can - 
  • Download & Convert Videos into MP3, MP4, 3GP, AVI etc.
  • Cut and download a specific portion of the large videos.



Instruction

First of all, you need to find your desired video from YouTube. Then open that video and copy the URL from the address bar. You can close YouTube to save your bandwidth. Now follow the link below: 


Clip Converter.cc


Paste the video link in Media URL option and hit on the Continue button. After hitting the Continue button, this site will be looking for necessary information of the video ie. screenshot, filename etc. 


Clip Converter Conversion Format


Now if you simply wanna download the video, without cutting or converting, choose the download format from available options ie. MP3, MP4 or 3GP. Then hit on the Start button. You will be redirected and wait for a few seconds to get the Download button. When the Download button appears, download the video. 



Downloading the Part of a Video

The procedure is almost similar to the previous one. You have to enter the video URL and then choose a download format ie. 3GP. But you need to choose conversion options here as follows:


Clip Converter Conversion Options



Here I choose 3GP format. When you unmark the options Start of Video and End of Video, you will be able to cut the video. But you must know the exact time of the part you wanna download. Now enter the starting and the ending time of your video as HH:MM:SS. Then hit on the Start button and wait for the download button to be appeared. As soon as you get the download button, you can download your specific part of the video! 


Note: Always load this site completely. Otherwise some button could be missing and you may not be able to see the Download button. 

Remember, there are several large download buttons in this site. Never click on these download buttons. Because these are Ads only. Only use those buttons which shows in my screenshots.

HOW TO DRAW A BURGER IN MS WORD


MICROSOFT WORD DRAWING PROJECT No. 48

TITLE:   HOW TO DRAW A BREAKFAST BURGER IN MS WORD   

TYPE:    FINE ART / DIGITAL DRAWING

Here is a pencil drawing of a breakfast burger which I used as reference for a digital drawing in MS Word. Yes, the word processor can draw a burger. This burger was drawn with the Curve line tool. The colour effects were created with Shape Fill and Shape Outline options. You can also draw it with the older versions, just that the Drawing program Toolbar is situated at the bottom of the screen or at the taskbar. You start by drawing the two halves of a bread roll and then between them you draw the burger, a fried egg and a slice of cheese. Use the Order commands to reposition the drawing objects. Finally, draw some black sesame seeds on top of the bread roll and you get yourself a tasty looking burger!
 

This is the pencil drawing of a breakfast burger.

This is how the digital drawing of a breakfast burger looks like in colour. Applying colours to an artwork does enhance its appearance to a greater degree.
