How to: Fix Windows 7 Logon that does not Display all Users

When I got home my brother started complaining about how he can’t resolve the logon display issue on our home PC. It took me a week to finally have time to take a look at it. Well it turns out to be a nasty problem that just won’t budge. I like it though, it challenges me and it wakes my curiosity and challenges me (this bit is tricky, because if it’s too much challenge my laziness will kick in).

Issue: When you get to the login screen what you only see is one user account (with the avatar and name) and another box that says Other User even if you have 3 other user accounts instead of all of your user accounts. You can still logon to the other accounts by clicking on Other User and manually typing the username and the password.

How to: Enabling Virtual Home Button in iOS devices

I'm a novice iOS user, I don’t know my way around iTunes and I'm helpless with data transfer and functionality shit. Anyhow, I have noticed that my friends have this floating home button and I found it annoying at first. They said its because the home button has an unfortunate tendency of malfunctioning when overused. I pondered upon that and I realized that it makes sense, so I joined in. My problem was, I don’t know what it’s officially called and how to enable it. So I did a little searching and here’s what I found. I hope this helps all other none savvy users like me.  

It's called Virtual Home Button and to enable it you have to follow the steps below: 

 Go to Settings then General 

Brace your self - Windows 8 is Coming

After Windows 7, the much anticipated Windows 8 will finally be release this month! 

This Operating System is primarily designed for tablet computers and other touch devices. I've seen the Developer Preview and the Consumer Preview and boy, this is a whole new OS! Windows 7's success is a huge one and Windows 8 has huge shoes to fill. I wont be discussing this baby's ins and outs, all I can say is that BIG BIG BIG changes are in store for you.

Here's a short something, a quick glance at Windows 8: 

How to: Show the Menu Bar

Does your browser, Windows Explorer or other software lack the usual Menu Bar? Then this post is for you. I have been working on computers for over four years now and experience tells me that a lot of people has this dilemma. They do not know how to get it to show up, and in turn, affects their productivity. 

Ill be showing you the easiest way to get your Menu Bar.  And when I say, easiest, I mean the easiest.

 With Windows Explorer(or Computer, or whatever name you are accustomed to), you just have to click on Organize then click on Layout and then click on the Menu bar to check it so it will show every time you open Windows Explorer.

Technician, not a Programmer

Many of you may not be aware, but I'm actually a technician. I studied Information Technology in college which majored in Programming. Needless to say, I sucked at coding(which is the heart of the programming) to be exact. In college when we're making projects, I always volunteer to do the non-coding stuff (i.e.: flowcharts, some database designing, documentation, printing, buying food, making coffee and other errands) which didn't help to improve my coding skills at all. So even before we graduated, I already knew that I wasn't destined to be a programmer. Lucky for me, on my first job, I got to work for one of the biggest software giants. I started with the non-technical department but I got a glimpse of how huge the company is and how I only knew a tenth of the products and services that they have. Then another lucky opportunity came, I was accepted to the technical part and the best part? NO CODING!!! *thumbs up* I still struggled since I’ve never really been technical, I started with virtually zero technical knowledge, I was your average 20-something who knows stuff because I tinker around them. Fast forward four years later, I’m still here (on my first job, technically) and I learned a thing or two and I'd like to think I'm no longer your average computer user. 

I’ll be sharing a few stuff and hopefully, it’ll be useful. If you happen to read by, drop some comments or suggestions, maybe I can make a blog about that.
