Google introduces new Gmail APIs for developers and their apps
by Guest Sam Sabri- 0 replies

Earlier today, Google announced and introduced new APIs for Gmail. These new APIs will help developers create apps that go beyond the limitations of IMAP. At least that's what Google is hoping for with today's announcement. Google praises IMAP for connecting email clients to email servers in a standard way, which it was designed to do. But there are features in Gmail that are held back by the limitations of IMAP. That's why we're looking at new APIs, designe to be a standard Google API. These new APIs will give developers RESTful access to a user's mailbox under OAuth 2.0 authentication. CRUD operations are supported for true Gmail datatypes such as messages, thre…

iPhone, iPad make muted return to Costco with big discounts
by Guest Chuong H Nguyen- 0 replies
- 478 views
After Costco had ended its partnership some years ago resulting in the yanking of iPod and iTunes gift card sales from its warehouse store shelves, it looks like the iPad and iPhone are both making a somewhat muted return to Costco. Whereas the old partnership of yore had Costco directly selling Apple products in its stores, the new arrangement seems to be online-only at this time. Costco is offering some great deals for the iPhone and iPad through its online portal, with the base 16 GB iPhone 5S being discounted by as much as $120. Costco is selling the Verizon, Sprint, and AT&T models of the iPhone 5S for $77.99 with a two-year contract. This price is for th…

In my original request for assistance, trying to install XP as a second O/S in dual boot capability, I constantly get the blue screen stop 0x0000007B (0xF78DA63C, 0xC0000034, 0x0000000, oxooooooo). I was advised to install XP SP3. Disn't help. My question here is: could I have purchased a phoney copy of XP installation DVD? (Vendor on Amazon). I have noticed vendor ad for Dell specific XP install. So might there be an Acer specific version and that's my problem? My Win 7 install is 64 bit, might this be the cause of 07B with XP? Thanks

Battery not charging after some time, and charging sporadically
by Guest crysis_ftw- 0 replies
- 395 views
I've had this issue from the past 4 days. My notebook doesn't seem to charge battery properly after reaching a certain percentage level like 70% (if charging from 30% or below) or 90% (if charging from 50% or above). Forgive me for the bleak details, as even I don't understand this pattern. What happens: 1. When I plug in my notebook to AC power, it charges normally for some time. 2. After some time, the charging stops and the battery icon in the status bar says 'plugged in, not charging'. 3. Battery doesn't stop charging altogether, it just seems to charge sporadically, i.e., charges for 5 seconds, then doesn't charge for another 5 or 10 seconds. Then charg…
