I lost my Photoshop Elements 8.0 disc, and a family member deleted it off my computer. I have the serial number and everything else, but the disc is gone.
What do I do?

Just got an iPod Shuffle and I was wondering if there's any way to put music on it without using iTunes? iTunes is a piece of shit and I hate using it. (I also don't have any music on there)
iShuffle sounds like a really simple way to drag and drop files and then just run a little program to enable playback.
Still getting no answers, but I'll try to be a bit more specific. Is the audio coming back from a TV with ARC the equivalent of if the TV had standard RCA plugs going back to the receiver? If so, as far as sources like a Wii, is that sufficient for a HTIB that purports to do DPLII?
You can use IrfanView, but it's Windows only I believe. It has a simple horizontal or vertical panorama function, or you can use the contact sheet function to make beautiful composites like this:
This is what i mean, anyone know a way i can accomplish this in Photoshop? Or any other OSX App, finding a windows pc is a bitch.
I want to put around 60 images (of the same size) next to each other (to minimize the amount Requests made by an website).

I'll try it out. Thanks!
Irfanview doesn't preserve my png transparency by the way so this won't solve my problem. But thanks for helping!
Damn Small Linux, Puppy Linux, Knoppix, something like that. Maybe Arch, Gentoo, or Slackware if you want to do some work.
My question is kinda strange. Is there a way to get a job (seasonal is a good option) in the USA if one has graduated?
It is strange because as a student I could pursue a work and travel program.
How should I approach this situation? Is it possible? My problem is that I have no relevant work experience.
p.s.: I have graduated in Mechatronics, robotics and automation. From my point of view I would be best at junior software developing positions or positions involving computer aided design.
p.p.s: How hard is it to get an PHD position at a university?

I don't understand the question. Are you asking how to get a job? Or how to get a job that recruits grad students after already missing the grad recruiting period?
When I hear "Seasonal" I think Best Buy hiring sales people for the holiday rush. But I assume as a Mechatronics grad this is not what you mean.
I might be wrong using the term seasonal.
I am a person who is whiling to work hard and overtime. I am asking how should I approach the situation? Is it possible or is the competition incredibly hard?
Thank You! I know that part, but more personal or whatsoever relevant info might help me more.
sory for my bad english.
EDIT@ Zoe
Your post makes so much more sense after the edit. Thank you.
EDIT2: How do you regulate your heath insurance?
EDIT3:
From the perspective of job opportunities I come from i would accept that best buy position.
but I am asking is it possible for a foreign student (or a recent graduate) to apply for a local job? Or does the local competition kicks you right out?

What can I do if I can't change my password on PS3 since I can't access the e-mail I used for the account anymore? I haven't updated it since the PSN hack, so it sends the password link to the e-mail I can't use (forgot the password). I need to change the e-mail on my PS3 account.

One album (and one album only) causes my iPod (4th gen) to freeze and/or really not work at all, forcing a hard reset. This problem has existed on it from iOS 4 to the current day on iOS 6. I've removed the songs, redownloaded new versions of the files from a different source and it still does. It is only this one album, no others. Which sucks, causes it an awesome EP. :/ The only thing I haven't tried is renaming the tags of the songs, to see if its a weird thing like that.
Any help?

Probably going to have to phone Sony.

Contact lenses. When they say, monthly, or biweekly, does it mean they're good for a full period of usage, or they're only good for so long once you crack em out of the airtight packaging?

I think you've got your work cut out for you, ESPECIALLY with Best Buy-level work. The job market in the USA is heavily skewed in favor of the employer these days, and there are many people willing to relocate from all over the country for jobs at all levels. It's just a tough time for it, and competition for fairly low-level work is fiercest because most able-bodied (and local) folks could do it. Basically, a hirer is going to choose an easy option when one is available, and you simply aren't an easy option at the moment.
So as Zoe said, your best bet is really to find a employer local to you with a branch here, then eventually seek transfer. The only case I could really see for the alternative would be if you had a spectacularly specific skill that only you in the whole wide world had, and some amazingly well-funded company required you specifically and would spare no expense or inconvenience to have you.
I have a WD 1TB external hard drive. It is formatted in exFAT. My laptop is Windows 7, while my PC (and the one I use much, much more) is XP. XP can't read exFAT, so I have to transfer all the files on the HDD to the laptop, then format, then put all the files back on. Except I have many files that are over 4 gigs and therefore can't be transferred in FAT32 or NTSC or whatever. Right?
So I find out there is an update for XP to allow access to exFAT. I download the proper one for my PC (XP Pro 2002 Edition, Service Pack 3), but it won't install. It starts to install and gives me Data Error (cyclic redundancy check). And of course, the other versions don't work for my version of Windows. It's not a huge deal, but a big annoyance to have to reformat and retransfer a few hundred gigs and then not be able to transfer some of the files back.

When countries dub movies into English or Vice Versa how is that they make their lips even REMOTELY look like they're saying the English or Foreign Language when the actors are obviously of a different nationality and don't speak said dubbed language.
The latter, I'm pretty sure. Once opened, you could wear monthlies for a month, but putting them back in the liquid won't sustain them longer than a month. On the other hand, a friend of mine forgot his dailies in his eyes for about 4 days I think and he survived

I do in that it only shows me activity from a handful of people and no one else. Other than that, no not having any other problems.

Either. It's also common to just not change names.
Alright I'm worried.
I have a receiver connected to my HDTV with an HDMI cable. All my electronics are of course connected. To get sound to my cable tv I use a AUX (I think) cable.
But when I wanted to play some PS3 it says 'No Signal' on my screen. I can hear the boot up sound but there's no picture. Nothing when I switch to my Apple TV or Mac Mini either.
I tried using another HDMI cable from the receiver to HDTV but it's the same.
What is wrong? =/

Anyone knows what might be wrong?
I guess the receiver still works as it sends audio through the AUX cable to my television and sound can be heart when booting up the PS3. Could it be the tv? Or just the HDMI cable? But I have tried 2 different HDMI cables from the HDTV -> Receiver.

Try going straight from the PS3 to the TV with an HDMI cable. Could you have also accidently put the reciever into 'analog' mode, so it isn't outputting digital signals?
Just tried connecting my Apple TV directly to my HDTV with HDMI and that works.
So it might be I have changed the Receiver's digital mode to analog?
Owz, gotta see if there's a way to change that in the Settings somewhere.
EDIT:
Hmm it says HDMI on my receiver when I turn it to PS3. It's an Onkyo, less than a year old.
EDIT:
Oh now it works and I don't know what I did. =/
