How do you reflash computer on 2003 Toyota Corolla?

This will have to be done by a Toyota dealership unless you have access to a module programmer. Then you will then have to know the input parameters for it. There can be a alot of them depending on the model. I would take it to a dealership. Good luck. If you just want to remove the code then use a scanner that has erasing capability. Remove the code before attempting a restart. This will force the computer to recheck everything as though it was normal.

What simple easy email only computer would you recommend for elderly parents?

Computers are rarely simplified to just email functionality these days.

For a Windows based PC, I recommend a VIA system. They are inexpensive, very small and simple desktops usually the size of a tissue box or smaller. Easy to set up, and run windows XP. They can also run Linux.

For Linux based systems, Jack PC by Etherfast makes a microcomputer capable of fitting into the wall like a phone jack. It runs on Windows CE, making it simpler and easier to use, and a 1.2 GHz x86 VIA processor.

Netbooks are now very common for simple mobile laptops, however they may be a bit more complex to use, as most lack a CD-ROM drive, and repair can be very difficult. They are however inexpensive, as low as $150.

Another alternative is to get a computer specifically for the elderly. Once company is working on a PC with an interface designed so that it's very easy to use. It comes with a simplified social network too so that all your relatives can easily share photos, etc. It's Linux based (though nowhere near as complex!) which means that viruses are not common.

How secure is peer-peer networking - is a client server network more secure - describe the differences in security?

The problem with security and peer-to-peer networks is that the security is up to each individual workstation. Some may have a very secure system and some may not have any security at all.

With a client-server network the network is managed by (in the case of Windows) a domain controller, which can enforce security for all other systems in the network. Using group policies the individual workstations can be made to conform to the policies of the organization and can be managed from a central source.

In a peer-to-peer situation there is no enforcement or auditing of administrative policies other than having someone look at each individual system, which is very time consuming.

Lingosbox Car Phone Holder vs iOttie Easy One Touch

I received my lingosbox car phone holder from 9commerce.com. After going through multiple phone holders over the years, this one is by far superior.

Month ago, I bought a iOttie Easy One Touch Phone Holder for my wife and regrettably stuck it on the dash of her brand new car (the day after I bought it!). I've tried a few products to remove it and nothing works. So now more than a month later I see it every day and am reminded of the mistake I made. Should have gone with the windshield glass instead.

And the holder does not hold the iPhone perfectly, every time the car speed change or go up hill the iPhone falls out. It even come out when I pull it with my hand, the holder so does not hold as it should do. Now I have changed my iPhone screen protector wise because of that holder.

Compared to iOttie, Lingosbox is a very strong plastic. It does not feel cheap in any way. The best part is the catch and release mechanism to hold or release the phone. The adjustability of the arm is really nice, too. It fits for absolutely any phone. I have an iPhone 7 and my wife has a iPhone 7 Plus. We have absolutely no problem switching between our phones in my car when we need to use one versus the other.

I have recommended this holder to everyone. It is a very good product and the manufacturer/distributor stands behind it. Stay with Lingosbox products-they will not let you down.

What is needed to include into application code in order to run it on new PC without OS?

The Operating System provides a layer of code that talks directly to the computer's hardware. Your application should use the OS to work with the hardware. An application not using the OS would need to contain code resembling an OS in order to work in any usable sense.

The filesystem will keep metadata like filename, file permissions, file type (as far as whether it's a regular file, a directory, a named pipe, device file, and so on), file creation and modified date.

Is the bluetooth is a wireless computer networking?

Bluetooth is a network technology that connects mobile devices wirelessly over a short range to form a personal area network (PAN). They use short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency (UHF) radio waves within the range of 2.400 to 2.485 GHz, instead of RS-232 data cables of wired PANs.

Features of Bluetooth

  • Bluetooth technology was released in 1999 as Bluetooth 1.0, by the Special Interest Group (SIG) which continues to manage it.

  • It was initially standardized as IEEE 802.15.1.

  • Mobile computing devices and accessories are connected wirelessly by Bluetooth using short-range, low-power, inexpensive radios.

  • UHF radio waves within the range of 2.400 to 2.485 GHz are using for data communications.

  • A PAN or a piconet can be created by Bluetooth within a 10 m radius.
