Iphone 3G Tips

Dec 16, 2008 Author: mubsher | Filed under: Iphone

1. Screenshot- Hold Home button & press top/sleep button. Screen will flash & picture saves to Camera Roll.

2. Save pictures in email & on the web - hold your finger on the picture & it will ask you if you want to save it. Also saves to your Camera Roll.

3. When typing a web address, hold the ".com" key down & you will also get .net, .edu, .org to choose from.

4. In Settings, Under Mail, Contact, Calendars, you can now import SIM contacts…

5. Some AppStore programs hide their settings in the iPhone Settings menu. It took me awhile to figure out how to change AIM’s Username/Password, until I found the AIM Settings hiding there… So far I’ve also seen Shazam’s & Save Benji’s settings there as well…

Lovely Tips On How Maintain A Woman And Keep The Love Burning

Dec 8, 2008 Author: mubsher | Filed under: Dating

If you would like to maintain your woman, you must be nice to her. I know many men don’t know this but women always want to hear and know that they are cherished. Many men don’t even ask their women or partners whether they like the choices they make for them in their lives. They just make decisions on their own and impose on their women. The fact that she will not ask a question about many things that you decide and do for her doesn’t mean that she is comfortable. She is just trying to bear with the domineering character of a man. Secretly, as men pretend to be deciding for their women, they keep asking themselves deep within their hearts. "Do you want to share with me?" Women constantly deep within their hearts ask questions and you may end up losing your woman. You must learn how to maintain a woman, be open and know how to keep her happy and comfortable.

Men certainly don’t know that women are constantly worried about their inability to perform in bed. Demands and challenges of modern life, stresses and pressures of their work places has made them very docile in bed. Men are under obligations to keep their women satisfied sexually. Women tend to secretly get annoyed about their men performance but they find the topic hard to approach. Unlike men, women are secretive and they will hardly open up and tell men what they expect them to do. Men will always shout on top of their voices, boast and brag about how sexually active they are in bed but women are very reserved in this topic. You should learn how to satisfy your woman in bed.

Women needs to hear and to be whispered to nice words. They like hearing sweet things and to be called sweet names. Men should be nice to their women and should show concern. A man’s appreciation to a woman makes her feel happy and cherished. Know that women, unlike men who pay attention to what they see, they are more pleased with what they hear. Women are made up of sweet and nice words. Use nice and sweet words and maintain your woman.

Be nice to your woman. Once in a while, try to remind yourselves about the things you used to do when you were new in dating. Take her to places where you used to go when you first met her. You may even surprise her with such gifts like flowers and nice jewels that you used to buy her. Assist her in the things that she enjoy doing such as cooking. It will surprise you how miraculously it can work and you will always be there for you. When you go out together make sure you open for her the car door and usher her in. Whenever you visit the supermarket help her push the trolley and making decisions on what to buy. This will make her love you even more and strength your love bond.

Changing Port Of Remote Desktop

Dec 2, 2008 Author: mubsher | Filed under: Computers

By default, Remote Desktop’s port is set to 3389. If you wish to change it to
some other port for whatever reason you have, you can do so with the easiest way changing the registry value using a Windows program called RegEdit which modifies registry name=pair values.

Follow these steps.

  • click START > RUN > type regedit and the regedit program opens up.
  • navigate to each key starting from
    • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    • System
    • CurrentControlSet
    • Control
    • TerminalServer
    • WinStations
    • RDP-Tcp
    • PortNumber
  • double click the PortNumber key, and choose the decimal radio button to reveal the value set by default as 3389.
  • change to whatever port number you wish

When connecting remotely using the Remote Desktop Client with the changed port, you can just add a colon + the port number after the domain or IP address.

e.g. 192.168.0.XXX:1234

The client connets to the IP address 192.168.0.XXX with port number 1234.
