Wireless Phones | Comments Off on How to Create or Change Your Billing, Shipping, or Payment Information, Associated With an Apple ID, Using Only a Web Browser | June 17th, 2014
Hello My Fellow Apple-orchard Dwellers,
What is an Apple ID? An Apple ID is your user name for everything you do with Apple: Shop the iTunes Store, enable iCloud on all your devices, buy from the Apple Online Store, make a reservation at an Apple Retail Store, access the Apple Support website, and more.

Hello All,
Recently, I needed to create another disk partition on my PC; that is, I wanted both drive C and drive D to be that of my internal hard disk. Imagine my delight at discovering that I did not need to completely erase and format my hard disk nor did I need to purchase a third-party application in order to accomplish this task.
While I did not write the following instructions, I can vouch for their accuracy.
