How to Play ROMs on iPhone (4 Steps)


Launch Cydia and add the following 'Repository': 'http://thebigboss.org". To add a repository, launch 'Cydia' and click on 'Manage' then 'Sources.' On that screen, click 'Edit' (top right screen) and then 'Add' (top left). Let the application reload after it adds the source.
Click on 'Sections' in Cydia and look for 'Emulators.' Tap on that and you will see emulators for the original Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance and Sega Genesis. The iPhone will not handle any other ROMs because of graphical issues. Install the emulator of your choice and let it download and install.
Connect the iPhone to the computer and close out of iTunes if it is set to pop up. Download the free program iPhone Browser (see Resources below). This will allow you to see all the hidden files on your iPhone. Launch this application after it installs and use it to navigate to /private/var/root/Media/ROMs/. Copy any ROMs you have downloaded (there is a site to download ROMs in the Resources section) to this location under whatever folder the ROM is for. If it is a Gameboy Advance ROM, you will copy it to the folder 'Gameboy Advance Roms.'
Disconnect your iPhone and launch your emulator application. If you put the ROMs in the correct folder, it will detect them and you can play them. Some of the emulators will even allow you to play the game with the iPhone in landscape (sideways) mode.

How to Remove an Apple Mac Hard Drive (9 Steps)


Back up all of your data. Before attempting to remove your existing hard drive, it is essential to save all of your data.
Shut down your computer and let it cool for 30 minutes. You will not want to attempt to remove a hard drive that has been running because the internal components may be too hot to handle.
Unplug all cords from the laptop, including the power source.
Turn the computer upside down and lay it on the soft lint-free cloth.
Release the battery hatch by taking a coin and turning it counterclockwise. The battery should pop right out.
Touch the metal surface underneath the battery. This will discharge any static charge and is extremely important to do before proceeding.
Remove the three screws along the RAM door. These are located on north side of the RAM door.
Remove the RAM door, an L-shaped bracket, that you previously loosened.
Unroll the hard drive pull tab. You will see a white tab that looks like tape. Pull it slowly to remove the hard drive.

How to Troubleshoot an Apple Computer Full Screen Display


Check the resolution of the screen. If things are just looking funny and out of proportion, then you have either accidentally zoomed in on your screen or changed the resolution. To change the resolution, click the Apple icon at the top left part of the menu bar, then 'System Preferences' and then click on the Display icon. There you can change the displays to find the one that you want to go back to. If the display and resolution settings do not work, try holding Command and swipe downward on the track pad. This should zoom out from your screen to the standard resolution and setting.
If you're using a laptop, connect to a power source. If your computer does not show any picture on the display, then you may be near the end of your battery life. See if restarting your computer helps. Hold the power button and the 'Control' and 'Command' keys simultaneously for several seconds.
Reset the PRAM, which is done by pressing the power button to turn the computer on and then immediately pressing 'Command,' 'Option,' 'P,' and 'R' until you have cycled through three start-up chimes. Resetting the PRAM is useful for any type of troubleshooting because it resets your computer to the original factory settings. This is often one of the first troubleshooting techniques that Apple certified maintenance technicians will try on a computer.
Reset the SMC for laptops by removing the power supply, removing the battery, and then holding the power button for five seconds. This is an additional option that resets your computer. If it still does not work and your computer does not properly show your display screen or if it does not boot up at all then you may have a more serious issue.
Consult your owner's manual for further tests that you can undertake such as the hard-drive test or checking the hardware and software of the computer through a Disk Utility check, which is done by utilizing the installation disks.
Call the Apple Service hotline or schedule an appointment at the nearest Apple retail store or an authorized service provider. The number for Apple support is (800) 275-2273. Or go to Apple's website (then link is included in Resources).

How to Use Bernina Artista Software on the Macbook Pro


Select and install virtualization software for your MacBook Pro. You can choose from several popular virtualization packages for the Mac, including Parallels Desktop for Mac, VirtualBox and VMware Fusion. VirtualBox is a free, open source software package, while Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion are commercial software products.
Install Windows within your virtualization software. You much purchase a copy of the Windows operating system if you do not already own it; it does not come with the virtualization software. Most virtualization software includes a wizard, or assistant, to guide you through the Windows installation. Windows will now run in a 'virtual machine' on your MacBook Pro.
Install your Bernina Artista Embroidery Software on your virtual Windows system. You install software into the Windows virtual machine the same way you do on a physical PC.
Plug the Bernina security dongle into a USB port on your MacBook Pro. The Windows virtual machine acknowledges the dongle, and may ask you if the USB dongle is to be used with the Mac or Windows system. The dongle is a hardware device that provides copy protection for the Bernina embroidery software.
Run the Bernina Artista Embroidery Software by choosing it from the Windows Start menu.
