How To Send Ringtone to Your Cell Phone Through Email

Most cell phones allow you to add a new ringtone by sending a binary ringtone code over the Internet, either by email or through an SMS gateway. Here's how to send your own songs quickly to your phone instead of wasting money on buying ringtones. It's easy and will only take about five minutes.

Steps:

1. Before attempting this make sure that your cell phone is able to receive ringtones in this way.
2. Simply attach the ringtone file that you downloaded to an e-mail and send it to your cell phone or if you create your own mp3 file to use as a ringtone make sure the file size is under 200k otherwise it can't be used as a ringtone but will be saved as a sound file. If you do not know your cellphone's e-mail address you will be able to find it from the list below.
3. Once your cell phone has received your ringtone review your manual to see how to apply it as a ringtone with your specific make and model phone.

How To Cancel Paypal Subscription

Many websites and other businesses give their customers the ability to subcribe to a magazine or other recurring service using the subscription option at PayPal. Every month, or at the end of each specified time period, PayPal automatically generates payment from your account in order to pay for the subscription. In some cases, the account may be through another company, but because payment automatically comes from PayPal, it can be confusing when you want to cancel a PayPal subscription. This article will provide you with some practical steps you can take to stop the automatic payment.

Steps:

 Cancel Your Subscription from the PayPal Website

1. Log in to your PayPal account.
2. 

   Click history under "My Account"
   Click "History" under "My Account" at the top of the page.
3. Start a search and change the dates so you start the search from the date before you started your subscription.
4. Use the filter drop down to select "subscriptions".
5. Click "Details".
6. 

   Middle button at bottom of page
   Click "Cancel Subscription". This button appears at the bottom of the page.
7. Confirm the choice by clicking "Cancel Subscription" again.

Go to the Vendor's Website to Cancel Your Subscription

1.  Determine whether you can cancel your PayPal subscription through the vendor offering the service or product. Cancellation policies vary by website, so you may need to visit the website in order to find out this information. 
   
2. Follow the directions provided by the company in order to cancel the subscription. In some cases, a customer service representative may be able to cancel it for you over the phone.
   

Tips:

• You can change the payment options on your subscription at the PayPal website, if you just want to have payment come out of a different account. Look for the "Pay List" in the "Financial Information" section of your PayPal profile, find the name of the merchant and look for the option to change the "Funding Source."
• There may be a slight variation in the location or wording for some of the steps. If you need help, contact PayPal customer service.

How to be Safe on Social Networking Sites

Would you tell a complete stranger all about your family, work, love life, hobbies and interests? And give them some personal photos to look at too? Most people approached on the street would probably answer ‘no’ to the above questions. But on the Internet, that’s exactly what millions of us are doing on the hugely popular social networking sites and chat rooms. Online social networks are fun and hip, but they also present a major security concern for Internet users.
Today your online wellbeing has a direct impact on the rest of your life. So enjoy the social networking sites while also keeping security in mind. That way you are protecting your computer, money and reputation, as well as your family and friends.

Steps:

1. Don’t reveal too much: Each web site provides different levels of privacy settings to control access to your profile page and your interaction with others. Identity theft is a major industry on the Internet and information extracted from social networking sites is used by criminals to spam e-mails and for targeted attacks on specific individuals and companies, using sophisticated social engineering techniques.
2. Beware of spam messages: It could be an e-mail pretending to be from someone you know, addressing you by your first name and mentioning the names of your children. It doesn’t look like a spam message and it can trick you into revealing even more sensitive information. Similar methods are also used to gain financial information from businesses.
3. Educate yourself: As social networking sites and chat rooms are especially attractive to children and teenagers, it is essential that parents educate them about safe online behavior and keep tabs on what they are doing online.
4. Maintain a good reputation: It’s worth remembering that whatever you post on your profile page, or other community forum, remains in the public sphere long after you log out of the web site. This includes the crazy stuff and wild photos that you posted on Facebook but decided to delete ten minutes later because it suddenly seemed like a bad idea. The problem is that you can’t really retract it. Once it’s out there on the Web, you have little control over who copies the material, where it is used and how widely it gets distributed.

Tips:

• Bebo provides an excellent summary of the security issues involving social networking sites for both parents and children at www.bebo.com/Safety.jsp Another recommended site for parents is www.saferinternet.org.
• The best way to guard against such threats is to install software like F-Secure Internet Security 2009, which updates your computer’s defenses automatically and makes sure you won’t be the one spreading worms among your network of friends. It’s also important to update your web browser, so remember to click on the security updates for Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, or any other browser you are using. This helps to keep your computer patched up against the viruses.

Warnings:

• Social networking sites are also used by predators and pedophiles searching for possible victims. It’s easy for anyone to adopt false identities on the Web, so you should maintain a healthy skepticism over what you see and hear on social networking sites. The bright young student you are conversing with could always be a middle-aged fraud. If you want to meet a person who you have befriended online, always do it in a public place, preferably accompanied by someone.
• Many online social networks encourage users to import content like video clips and also accept third party add-on applications. This can be exploited by virus writers as a way of getting malicious code into the networks, such as the worm which spread rapidly on Orkut’s web site last year, infecting an estimated 655,000 users in Brazil.

How to be Safe in the Chat Rooms

The internet is a place to make new friends. It is easy to just chat with someone. However, you have to be careful and listen carefully to what is being said. After a while, you can tell if someone is lying or is really becoming a friend. You also have to listen to the questions that are asked, because many adults pretend they are young and friendly just to lure the unsuspecting into a trap to meet them for sex. Be careful and watch the information that you yourself give online.

Steps:

1. Watch the way others approach you or start a conversation. If they start asking questions about you, like where you live or if you are home alone, then they are not trying to be friends. They are trying to find out personal information so that they can possibly harm you. Stay away from these people. Do not reply, and if they insist, shut off your computer.
2. Allow your inner self to hear what they are saying. Suppose someone starts talking to you, and tells you about school. You can chat back and forth without getting personal. They make you laugh and you kid around with them. You talk about teachers, homework, and movies. This is the start of a friendship. Continue with this type of person, but again, listen for warning signs. This is called a 'red flag' on the Internet. Once you sense a red flag, discontinue the conversation.
3. Understand that if a person on the chat starts the conversation by asking your age, where you live, and if your parents work, this is a red flag. Stop the conversation, or do not give out correct information. Understand however, that this person does not want to be a friend.
4. Pictures Are Not Recommended. Even if your picture doesn't show street names, license plates, or any PI, pictures are showing what you (or your friends!) look like.
5. Any sexual language like "You wanna do?", and you should leave and tell someone (like the police) IMMEDIATELY. No exceptions.
6. Cyber-violence (unless make-believe, like shooting orbs of water out of your hands) is not acceptable either. If anyone says "*punches u and u bleed*" or anything like that, leave and tell.
7. Telling is not tattling. If someone hurts you or makes you feel uncomfortable, online or offline, you should always tell someone.
8. Know you are not alone. Many kids get harassed on the internet, but now you know what to do if you are added to that already large group of kids

Tips:

• The Internet is a great place to meet others with the same interests.
• Talking to school friends over a chat program makes it easy to talk about homework or school activities.
• It is better not to trust strangers in chat rooms; be wary, and be careful.
• Note that just because the chat room is supposed to be just for one gender, or everybody is supposed to be of one religion, on the internet anybody can claim to be anybody else.
• PI means Private Information
• Remember, the internet is serious business.

How To Create an EffectiveEmail Flier

Considered as one of the most effective marketing tools, e-mail fliers have become quite a rage and a necessity in the business world, fast providing a cheaper and more focused alternative to the traditional printed flier.
An email flier draws the attention of the customer and presents the benefits and features of a product or service or company in an appealing manner.
With the capability of reaching out to a large number of potential customers in a matter of few seconds, email fliers provide businesses and effective way to promote their products or services amidst a targeted audience with the help of a select mailing list.
To design an effective and professional looking email flier, you need to follow some important steps:

1. The most important starting point of an email flier is to decide what its objective is – what it intends to do or achieve. An email flier is in other words a beautifully designed advertisement sent out over the email chain. Hence, you must know for sure what you want to convey to your customers - whether you want to inform them about recent launches in your product line or promote a particular product or services or announce a special promotional offer and so on.
2. Secondly, define your target audience so as to ensure that the email flier reaches the most high potential target group. Prepare a demographic profile of your customer base identifying their age group, location, preferences, gender, education level, etc. Having knowledge of who you are writing for would help you to meet the requirements of your clients.
3. Build a mailing list containing the email ids of your customers And keep updating your mailing list from time to time.
4. Review quality email fliers from leading sources. There are email directories such as Adpera.com and iStorez.com that show professional email campaigns from the internet's top retailers. Retailers spend a lot of money on graphic designers, marketing professionals and testing various approaches. You will quickly notice there are some common "best practices" used through out the industry.
5. Make a rough draft of the design of the email flier by deciding where to put the logo of your company, content, images etc. Decide where you want to place the images, whether on top of the flier or in the centre.
6. Write a thought provoking headline. Project the main benefit of your product or service in the headline so that the reader instantly knows what he/she stands to gain. Make it attractive and eye catching. Remember that the headline should act like a magnet to draw the attention of the readers.
7. Use sub-headings to break the text in the right places. Don’t use long paragraphs and long winding sentences. Keep the content short and crispy so that the readers can understand what you want to say at first go.
8. Write the content as if you are having a conversation with the readers. Directly address the reader and tell him/her about the benefits he/she can get from the products or the services.
9. Stick to just one type of font. Don’t slap in too many different kinds of fonts in the mistaken belief that it looks creative. It doesn’t. The use of different types of fonts in one fliers creates confusion and makes the flier look amateurish.
10. Insert appealing pictures in the email flier. For a profound effect, put one large picture instead of a number of smaller pictures.
11. Use sufficient amount of white space to break up the text. Proper usage of white space makes the copy look interesting and attracts the reader.
12. Don’t keep the border very close to the text. It makes the copy look too clumsy.
13. Include a free coupon or some discount in the flier and encourage the reader to take advantage of the freebies. Include the link of the appropriate webpage which you want your customers to visit.
14. Include a call to action. Encourage the reader to email back or call back. Include information of your website url, email and the contact number.

How To manage Labels in Gmail

Google’s Gmail service bills itself as an intuitive, innovative way of organizing e-mail. One of the more useful concepts you may encounter in Gmail is the use of labels. Labels are much like tags on a blog post. They allow you to quickly access and sort through related information. Unlike a folder-based system in which each file or message can only be located in one folder, you can apply more than one label, and thus more than one reference, to each e-mail message. This article walks you through the basic steps to manage labels in Gmail.

Steps:

Create a Gmail Account

1. Open a Gmail account or log in to your existing Gmail account via http://mail.google.com/.

Select Labels

1. Click the empty box next to any Gmail conversations you’d like to label or change labels on. A check mark should appear in each box.

Add a New Label

1. Click the “Labels” button in your Gmail toolbar. This will provide a pull-down menu.
   
2. Select a label. Use either one of the default labels provided (Work, Personal, Receipts, Travel) or select “Create New” to enter your own. Once you’ve selected a label, it will be applied to all selected conversations. Any new labels created will then be available under the “Labels” pull down menu for future use, along with the defaults.

Remove Labels

1. Select a labeled conversation.
   
2. Click on the “Labels” button in your Gmail toolbar.
   
3. Click on the checked box next to the label you’d like to remove.
   
4. Select “Apply.”

Edit or Remove Labels

1. Access the label you’d like to edit or remove via the pull-down list of labels on the left side of your Gmail display. If the label you’re looking for isn’t displayed as a clickable link, you’ll find it underneath the “(#) more” heading, where (#) is the number of additional labels not being displayed.
   
2. Click the down arrow to the left of the label. This supplies a menu that allows you to hide, rename or delete labels. You can also use this menu to add color to labels.

Display Labels

1. Use the “Hide” option, accessed through the pull-down menu to the left of the labels in the left-hand Gmail display, to remove labels from the default list on the left of your screen and hide them under the “(#) more” display instead. This will not hide labels on your Gmail conversations.
   
2. Click and drag hidden labels from underneath the “(#) more” display to the default label display if you’d like them to be readily visible once again.

Manage Labels

1. Manage labels in mass quantities by clicking the “Labels” button in your Gmail toolbar and then selecting “Manage Labels.” This will pull up a menu featuring all of your current Gmail labels, with “Hide” and “Show” buttons next to each label. Most labels will also have a “Remove” button next to them, and can be edited by left-clicking on the label name.

How To Install the Gmail Drive

Your Gmail account comes with 6,330 MB of data space and it's going up. It's not going to be easy to send and receive a total of 6,330 MB of messages, so you can take advantage of the space and turn it into a drive.

Steps:

1. Download Gmail Drive in here
2. Extract the setup file from the ZIP and install it. The Gmail Drive will now appear in "My Computer".
3. Create a filter and a label called "Gmail Drive" or something similar. The filter should put everything with "GMAILFS:" in the subject into the label. You should also have it skip the "Inbox". This will prevent your Inbox from filling up with Gmail Drive stuff.

How to Find People Online

There are many websites out there offering to help you find people online. Many of them will give you some basic information for free and then promise more detailed information for a fee. The trick is to know what you will get and who you are dealing with before you agree to pay any money for these services.

steps

Find a Phone Number or Address for a Person

1. Search for “white pages” and remember to bookmark the site once you find one you like. Many websites have people search or white pages functions. Often, you’ll find that a phone company hosts the online version of the white pages.
   
   
2. Type in the state where you believe the person lives and both first and last names for the best results. The more common the name, the more you may have to narrow it down, since multiple names will come up if it's a common name.
   
   
3. Keep in mind that you shouldn’t have to pay to find someone's phone number. You will get the same results as if you looked in the phone book.
   • Any unlisted number will not be available with one of these searches.

Find People Online on Social Networking Sites

1. Visit websites designed to find people on social networking sites.
   
   
2. Type in as much information as possible.
   
   
3. See what kind of results you get before going further.
   • You may have to join a website to get access to most of its information. Try to find ones that offer free registration and membership.
   • You can also take advantage of websites designed to provide information for who's behind an email address, username or phone number, in addition to the name search function.

Try a Regular Search Engine

1. Select a search engine that you like to use. Type the person's name in the search field. If you know a city or state, add that as well.
   
   
2. Improve your chance of finding the right person.
   • You’re more likely to find people if their names are on a website for the company they work for, if they blog regularly or have articles published online, or if their names are in the news.
   • It’s easier to find someone this way if his or her name is uncommon. It’s also easier if you have a full first name and a middle name. If you are searching for a woman who might be married, try using both her maiden and married names.

Use a Pay Service to Find More Information

1. Visit a website designed to find people online. Type in the information you know about the person.
   
   
2. Read the search results. Some of the results will provide you with information or direct you to a website where you can get information for free.
   
   
3. Check out the information from the free sources before you consider paying.
   
   
4. Read the fine print and consider whether the information is worth the cost before you pay. Look to see whether there is a guarantee; you want to know whether you can get your money back if it turns out that the information is about another person with the same name.

How to Custom Colorize Firefox

The following is a method to customize the appearance of firefox using personal profile Chrome.css settings.

Steps
1. Editing Firefox Chrome settings is difficult, but an add-on extension called ChromeEdit Plus makes it easy. For whatever reason Mozilla has made it difficult to get. It can be found on the following page: "ChromeEdit Plus 2.7.0"
2. This Addon is unsigned but seems to be ok. Open ChromeEdit and in userChrome.css enter code, clicks save and restart. Sometimes it takes experiment. Code may be removed at any time and browser will revert to old form.

• UserChrome.css is fairly exacting. It looks like this:
  

/* Menu and toolbar color */
   navigator-toolbox {background: #efcb87 !important;
   }

• However css code takes all sorts of forms. Not all codes that one may find on the internet work. The one's shown below work for me with the latest Firefox edition.

3. The code /*...*/ does not affect Firefox settings. It is meant merely as a descriptive title.

How To Send Large Files to Another Computer Using Internet

The difficulty of sending large files to another person isn't as easy as it sounds. E-mails can only hold up to so much data and most other methods are quite complicated to do. Here are some things you can do to send a file to another person:

Steps

1. Consider P2P (Peer To Peer) as your first option. Peer to peer, depending on which program you use, is an easy, secure way to transfer files from one computer to another. Peer to peer usually works around firewalls and can transfer files of (almost, depending on the program) any type.
2. You can also use FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to transfer pretty big files. FTP is quite convenient for people who know how to do it. However, setting up an FTP server (if you don't already have one) is not only hard for those who don't know, but also time-consuming. It may also require editing of your firewall or network. However, one upside is that FTP servers often do not cost any money to make (there is a lot of free FTP software out there, or, you can use your internet browser to access it).
3. Use an Online Uploading Service and link to them through email. There are some file hosting sites that allow free upload and link to those files. The only drawback is that anybody who finds out the link can access those files (if its a public search site) and that the site can be set to accept only certain files
