So i recently bought the "Soundfreaq SFQ-1 Platform Bluetooth Audio System" and I am having problems connecting it via bluetooth to my ps3. The speaker shows up as a device when i try to register it but once I input the password i get the "An error occurred during the register operation. Try to register again. (8001002B)." I know that the password that I entered is correct but I always end up getting the same error. Is there something that I am doing wrong?

What exactly do you mean by the Bluray diode? Does this affect the bluetooth settings? Because i can still connect my bluetooth mic with the ps3 with no problems.

Ok I have two question to ask.

Can someone suggest a decent GPS for the car? I've done some looking and I know I'm focusing on the negative things people have written so that steers me away. Some I've seen are $200+ which I'm not willing to spend that much

Second, I'm getting a new phone in a couple of weeks and wanted some suggests there as well. I quite honestly DO NOT care about these apps and crap. My current phone is just one of the free ones you can get with the 2 year plan so it's garbage. Battery is terrible, I have to press the answer button several times to pick it up when it's ringing and the buttons are pretty small for dialing numbers.

Any suggests are helpful thanks!

That's a possibility but I would like to just attach the GPS to the front windshield and leave it there. I'd have to hold the phone in my hand most likely.

It will get stolen lol.

There's all sort of window mounts for phones (some generic, some specific designs for specific models).

No but seriously there there are dash mounts for phones. And no one should just leave their GPS unit in the car at all times. Kill two birds with one stone. Sounds like you need a new phone...

Well, for a while, I was taking five/six reports a day for stolen GPS units; all left on the dash mount.

Yeah I may as well right? I looked it up and mounts aren't too expensive. Thanks.

One of these days I'm going to get a pair of walkie talkies. I'm going to tape one to the bottom of my car and then go hide is the bushes with the other. I'll wait for someone who wants to try to steal something from my car and then scream into the talkie 'GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME' and scare the shit out of the guy.

I think she's asking if there's a psu application for the apple or android market.

Anyone know much about Backing up and Restoring?

My laptop recently crashed and deleted two of my users. I ran a check and it looks like my stuff is still on the hard drive but it says I should restore it to an external hard drive. Why is that?

When I do restore it, should I restore everything to the external HDD? How do I permanently delete the stuff on my own HDD then?

**F34R** · 08-24-2012

Any way you can get a snapshot of this?

Yeah, I'm having a hard time following this.

When you do a backup, you're not backing up programs, just raw data files (pictures, word documents, spreadsheets, music, etc.) Also, you can't use your external HDD as a primary disk, unless its e-SATA.

What do you mean it deleted two users? Are the usernames still able to be seen? or are they completely missing.

as F34R said, screenshot please?
