Thank you for the quick response. I am very surprised my issue was resolved so quickly. Another ebook store gave me a hard time before (months of wait and still not resolved), which was why I started shopping at this web site.

PCs For Dummies Quick Reference


Chapter One

Connecting Stuff

If your life's technical experience includes only plugging something into the wall, boy, are you in for a surprise!

Yes, computers do plug into the wall - several times and in several ways. More than that, computer gadgets and gizmos plug into each other. Unlike your stereo system, where most of the cables look alike, on the computer just about every cable is different: different shape, different color, different way to plug it in. This chapter covers the basics of plugging stuff in.

About Computer Cables

A computer cable is described by which port it plugs into and its length.

For example, to connect a printer to the console, you use a printer cable. A USB device (including printers) connects by using a USB cable. A monitor uses a monitor cable.

One exception is networking, which is done by using Cat-5 cable, though you can say "networking cable" and the guy in the computer store won't mock you. The connector on the console is called an RJ-45, but networking cable isn't "RJ-45 cable." It's Cat-5.

Some cables are permanently attached to their devices: The mouse and keyboard have such cables, for example. Other cables are s ... read full excerpt from PCs for Dummies Quick Reference, 3rd Edition ebook

    Why must I activate my Adobe Reader? 

    Many publishers require powerful copy protection for their eBook titles. In order for you to be able to purchase and download eBook titles that have been secured for distribution, you first need to activate your Adobe Reader. Just as a credit card typically must be activated by a bank before use, your Adobe Reader needs to be activated before you can purchase and read eBooks packaged for secure distribution. 

    Can I print or copy my Adobe ebook?

    To protect copyrights, publishers and authors establish their own guidelines for how much of their eBooks can be printed or copied. This means that these permissions will differ from book to book. Each ebook file has a differing level of encryption which is controlled by the author/publisher at creation. For example, a publisher might give users the ability to print several pages of a cookbook within a set period of time. You'll see specifc settings for the Adobe title under the ebook description.
