It's the Apple Connection

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought a cheap knock-off USB-Lightning connector. It did not last more than three months before it started acting up. The iPhone was not being recognized by the computer. Once It bought the genuine article, it's been smooth sailing...

![Home Alone: The Complete Collection [WS] [4 Discs] [DVD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/9082/9082066_sa.jpg)
Four Home Alone movies in one four-DVD set. In the original Home Alone that started it all, Kevin McAllister (Macauley Culkin) must protect his home from burglars (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern) after being accidentally left home for the holidays. In Home Alone 2, Kevin (Culkin) is cornered by the same thieves while on a trip to New York. In Home Alone 3, nine-year-old Alex (Alex D. Linz) must protect a microchip in his toy car from a band of thieves. And in Home Alone: Taking Back the House, Kevin (Mike Weinberg) must choose which of his divorced parents get him for the holidays, but no matter where he goes the same thieves follow.

The first one is great, the second is okay... but

Let's face it... The original movie is a Christmas classic. The second was a pretty weak sequel, but the rest is pretty awful.

Great action movie...
on January 18, 2014
Posted by: jon96789
from Honolulu, HI
Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie is a lot better than I expected. It is based on the Jack Reacher novels. Jack is an ex-MP who is off the grid. A man who is accused of murder asks Jack to prove he is innocent, but Jack thinks he is guilty as well.
This movie proves that gratuitous s*x is not needed in a movie. In fact, there is no s*x at all... The plot holds the whole movie together.

Great streaming device...

I use it in...:Large home
Verified Purchase:Yes
The Apple TV is an excellent streaming device. The wi-fi is very sensitive, I can get faster streaming with it over my two Sony BR players which do not support hi-speed wi-fi.
The only drawback is that it does not support VUDU which most of the new movies support. I am finding less support for the iTunes library.

Personal Home Cloud Network setup
I am looking at setting up a home network using either a WD or Seagate My Cloud hard drive. The concern I have is we use multiple systems in the house (PCs, MacBook, IPad, Galaxy, ....) and I want to be able to access the home network using any and all of these systems. When I read through the setup instructions for the WD and Seagate, they are either for the PC or Mac; there's not much guidance on across platform setup. Am I able to setup the network so I have access to it using any of my systems? if so how do I go about doing this?
It does not matter what OS you use as the Cloud drive will appear as a network drive. If the device can detect the network, it should detect the cloud drive.
The only thing is how the devices have the ability to back up to the cloud drive. They all can back up but it may have to be done manually...

Can u help me find this connector
I need an adapter from old hard drive(ribbon cable) to new motherboard
Newer motherboards do not have IDE/PATA connectors. You will have to buy a new HDD as the ribbon cable is a parallel cable and the newer ones are serial type and are not compatible...

which is the best sata hard drive for my hp pavalion h9 1130
interested in best fast and reliable
SATA drives are getting cheap... You could pick up a 250GB SATA drive for about $80 or so. You have to check if your computer has an internal SATA connector. IF not, you will need to buy a PCI SATA card.

Which internal hd is best for an emachine desktop?
You have to check if your eMachine desktop uses an IDE/PATA or a SATA HDD... I think the eMachines used IDE/PATA connectors. If so, you will have a hard time finding a replacement as they have been more or less phased out by SATA drives. I would look into a WD 250GB HDD. Again, you will have to get more information as really older computers may not recognize drives of large capacity...

You can put in any desktop HDD with no issue. You just have to make sure if the interface is SATA or IDE.

Will this work with older laptops such as ones with the Centrino Duo processor?
Not likely. I believe laptops back then used IDE interfaces and the SSD uses a SATA interface...
