I have a PB G4 SD 10.4. I deleted an application from my internal HD, it is sitting in my bootable backup external HD. Since running my last backup, I have new files and apps in my internal drive that I don't want to lose.
How do I get that 1 app and it's associated files and folders back into my internal drive without having to erase and install the backup into the internal drive?

I have updated my Realtek software several times, then everything is great. Then I will shut my computer off and restart, the sound no longer works and states there are no active mixers or drivers installed. I reinstall the drivers again and all is well again. until the next time I shut off and restart. I have an HP Pavilian Media Center computer m380n.

My Labtech optical mouse, cute and small, worked just by plugging it in. (Cost about $24.) Worked great for about a year. Then quit, for good. I tried it in another computer, but unsuccessful. Is there a repair? the Labtech company is not helpful, nor the store of purchase (office depot). Do "mice" have a short life span? I am not a heavy computer user.

okay... I had this printer for quite a while, but i haven't used it all this summer, and these two months i been in school because i got a brand new computer. I finally setted up the printer to my computer, but when i try to print something out it doesn't work. I think it's probably low of ink. I probably need a new ink cartridge, but i remember that when you don't use the ink for quite a while, it wont work. There is a setting where you could refresh it, and i forgot how to do that. Anybody know how to do this. I just want to see if it works, but if it doesn't then i need to buy new ink.

I have a notebook, which is Windows XP Pro based and about 18 months old. Processor speed is 1.8 GHz and 512 MB RAM. Now, my system speed has gone down and I would like to increase the speed. If anyone could suggest the temporary files which I need to delete as a part of achieving this, in addition to other possible methods, I would be grateful.
