How to Use a Credit Card Machine to Program a Card: 5 Steps

Purchases at stores and retail outlets used to be a cash only proposition. With the advent and growing popularity of credit cards with magnetic strips embedded in them, many stores and retail outlets began to accept credit cards as payment for purchases. This purchase by credit system is based on getting the billable account information from the information on the credit card that the customer presents. For their own protection, the stores or retail outlets must confirm at the time of purchase that the credit card information provided represents a valid billable account, that the billable account is active, and that the billable account has sufficient credit remaining to cover the purchase. Stores and retail outlets use credit card readers that are networked to a central information repository that can advise if the purchase being attempted by the customer should be accepted or denied. Use these tips to learn how to use a credit card machine to program a card.
STEPS
1
DECIDE ON THE TYPES OF CR CARDS TO BE ACCEPTED. There are many companies that provide credit services, and it should not be assumed that all credit card companies make their information available to all central information repositories. The various credit providers add a service fee to the customer purchase that varies from credit provider to credit provider. Such service fees can be anywhere from 5 percent to
1
0 percent of the value of the purchase, and the store or retail outlet must bear these service fees.
2
CHOOSE THE CENTRAL INFORMATION REPOSITORY THAT WILL BE USED. The chosen central information repository must support all of the credit cards that the store or retail outlet has chosen to accept. The services of the central information repository will be charged to the store or retail outlet, usually in the form of a monthly fee. Many repositories will discount their fees if preferred credit cards are used, or if the card reading machines of that company will be used on either a rental or purchase basis. Conduct online research to find the right combination of cards accepted and central information repository services that are right for your store or retail outlet.
Determine the access method to the central information repository of choice. Some repositories will require a telephone modem connection for which the store or retail outlet must supply a telephone line. Other repositories will link over the Internet, for which a dedicated link to the Internet must be provided. Credit card machines cannot be linked to the Internet through a personal computer.
3
CHOOSE THE TYPE OF CR CARD READING MACHINE TO BE USED. The 2 choices are machines that will read the magnetic stripe on the card and machines that must have an operator enter the number printed on the card on a keyboard. In either case, choose the use of a built-in receipt printer or an auxiliary receipt printer for the credit card machine of choice. Credit card machines that require an auxiliary printer can be purchased for between $200 USD to $450 USD (140 to
3
15 Euros), while card swipe credit card machines with built-in printers can be purchased for between $275 USD to $900 USD (17
3
to 6
3
0 Euros).
4
INSTALL THE CR CARD READING MACHINE. The credit card reading machine must be installed through either a phone line or an Internet link per the manufacturers instructions. The credit card reading machine must be programmed per the manufacturers instructions to identify the store or retail outlet and the billing code provided by the central information repository for the store or retail outlet.
5
USE THE CR CARD READER. Activate the reader as indicated by the manufacturer's instructions to begin a new transaction. Swipe the credit card, or enter the credit card number on the numeric keypad of the credit card reader. Commit the credit card reader to process the new transaction as indicated by the manufacturers information.
Accept any denials by the credit card reader. The credit card reader will not indicate why the transaction was denied.

How to Jailbreak iPhone/iPod Touch With 3.0 Official Firmware

If you have the official firmware 3.0 for the iPod Touch/iPhone it is possible to jailbreak, though it will be less complicated when QuickPwn comes out. For now, this method is the working alternative.
STEPS
1
FIRST, OPEN ITUNES, AND SHIFT+CLICK ON THE "RESTORE" BUTTON AND UPGRADE YOURSELF TO THE 3.0 firmware (even if you already have it).
2
SET IT UP AS A NEW IPOD/IPHONE IN ITUNES.
3
IT SHOULD WORK ON THE
3
.0 firmware, un-jailbroken as of now.
4
OPEN "REDSN0W" AND BROWSE FOR THE FIRMWARE.
5
CLICK "NEXT".
6
ONLY CHECK CYDIA, NOT ICY.
7
PLUG IN THE DEVICE, THEN TURN IT OFF.
8
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR PUTTING IT INTO DFU MODE (POWER BUTTON FOR 3 SECONDS, BOTH BUTTONS FOR 10 SECONDS, ONLY HOME BUTTON FOR 30 SECONDS).
9
IT WILL DO THE REST.
10
WHEN IT TURNS ON AGAIN, YOU SHOULD HAVE A NORMAL IPOD/IPHONE WITH CYDIA INSTALLED. It is successfully jailbroken.
11
KNOW THAT I\'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ENCOUNTERED TO YOUR DEVICE.
TIPS
Please follow these instructions to the letter, jailbreaking messes with the firmware, so if you mess up, there will be big problems.
If this, for some reason, looks like to much trouble, too hard, or too complicated, whatever, don't try it, just wait for Quickpwn.
Icy doesn't work, don't try it. Though the interface is better.
WARNINGS
Zero whatsoever liability, if you mess up I am very sorry, but I am not responsible, please try restoring it in iTunes.
Note: there is the possibility that you will have problems downloading things from Cydia afterwards, i just tried it a couple times and this seems to be the working method.

How to Delete an iPhone App: 9 Steps (with Pictures)

Have you ever wanted to delete an iPhone app but didn't know how? Well, this is the right article for you! After reading this, you'll be done before the length of a Snapchat.
STEPS
METHOD 1 OF 2: STANDARD METHOD



1
LOCATE THE APP YOU WANT TO DELETE. No need to open it; just locate it.



2
PRESS AND HOLD DOWN THE ICON OF THAT APP. After a few seconds, all the apps in your iPhone will start wiggling and will show tiny "X" icons beside them (except the apps that came with the device itself).
If these X's don't show up, scroll on down to the alternative method below.



3
CLICK ON THE \'X\' TO DELETE THE APP. Your iPhone will ask you if you want to delete the chosen app.
Choose "Delete," if you do indeed want to delete the app and all its data.





4
PRESS THE HOME BUTTON. When you're finished deleting the apps you want to delete, just press the circular button below the touch screen (the "home button") to go back to the normal screen. The X's will disappear and the icons will stop wiggling.



5
DELETE IT FROM YOUR ITUNES. If you don't, it might show back up the next time you sync your device. Or, if you'd rather, just set up iTunes so that it doesn't sync apps from external devices.
You cannot delete apps that came with your device, but you can move them around. Just hold it down and move your finger around the screen -- the icon will drag along with you.
METHOD 2 OF 2: ALTERNATIVE METHOD
_ 1TAP THE SETTINGS BUTTON ON YOUR HOME SCREEN. Then select "General" once you're in.



2
SELECT "RESTRICTIONS." If prompted, enter your 4 digit PIN code. If you don’t know your 4 digit PIN code, start guessing. Ask a family member who may have set it up for you.
If you can’t determine the 4 digit PIN code, you will not be able to make any changes.



3
SCROLL TO THE ALLOW SECTION OF THE "DISABLE RESTRICTIONS" SCREEN. Look for the entry titled Deleting Apps. Slide the button next to it from OFF_ to _ON_.



4
RETURN TO THE STANDARD METHOD. Now your device is set so that apps can be deleted. Press and hold down the icon of the to-be-erased app and an X will appear in the corner. Click that X and follow the prompts for deletion.
In turn, at the same screen there is an "Installing Apps" button. That can be set to ON if you are a parent and would prefer to oversee what your child is doing with their device.
TIPS
If some of the apps aren't showing X's, they are apps that came with your iPhone and cannot be deleted.

Menanti Kedatangan Apple di Indonesia

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.COM - Tanda-tanda kedatangan Apple di Indonesia mulai terendus sejak akhir 2012. Setelah mendapat persetujuan investasi di Indonesia pada Desember 2012, apa yang akan dilakukan Apple selanjutnya?

Sebagai langkah awal investasi di Indonesia, Apple telah membuka toko konten multimedia digital iTunes Store pada 4 Desember 2012. Dengan akun Apple ID regional Indonesia, pengguna iTunes Store bisa membeli konten musik dan video dengan mata uang Rupiah.

Tak berhenti sampai di situ, perusahaan asal Cupertino, California, ini juga akan mempermudah pembelian konten digital di iTunes dengan menyediakan kupon iTunes Gift Card dengan mata uang Rupiah. iTunes Gift Card bakal jadi alternatif bagi mereka yang enggan atau tidak memiliki kartu kredit.

Apple juga akan menaruh perwakilannya di Indonesia. Seorang sumber terpercaya mengatakan kepada KompasTekno, Apple sudah mendapatkan seseorang yang akan mengatur pemasaran produk Apple di Indonesia. Besar kemungkinan Apple akan memperkuat dan memperluas jaringan distribusinya di Indonesia.

Siapakah dia yang akan mewakili Apple di Indonesia? Tunggu saja sampai ada pengumuman resmi.

TOKO ONLINE ATAU TOKO FISIK?

Badan Koordinasi Penanaman Modal (BKPM) telah menyatakan kesediaan Apple untuk berinvestasi di Indonesia. BKPM memprediksi, nilai investasinya sebesar 3 juta dollar AS atau sekitar Rp 28,5 miliar.

Menurut Ketua Umum BKPM Chatib Basri, Apple telah lebih dulu mengajukan toko online. Toko online ini bisa mengacu pada iTunes Store yang telah diluncurkan pada Desember 2012, tapi bisa juga mengacu pada toko online untuk menjual produk perangkat keras mulai dari ponsel pintar iPhone, tablet iPad, hingga komputer Mac dan MacBook.

Toko online Apple Store sempat dibuka di Indonesia pada 2008 silam. Namun, ini bukanlah penjualan langsung ke Indonesia. Toko online ini sebenarnya berada di Singapura, yang pada akhirnya menemukan berbagai kesulitan, termasuk masalah pengiriman dari Singapura ke Indonesia.

Toko online Apple Store Indonesia akhirnya ditutup untuk pembelian. Pengguna dari Indonesia saat ini hanya bisa melihat daftar harga dan menemukan toko fisik resmi yang menjual produk Apple.

Untuk kondisi sekarang ini, bukan tidak mungkin Apple akan membuka kembali toko online-nya di Indonesia.

Opsi lain selain toko online, adalah toko fisik. Jika Apple hendak membuka toko fisik di Indonesia, maka Apple harus membangun toko modern dengan luas lantai penjualan lebih dari 2.000 meter persegi. Menurut Chatib, ini telah menjadi peraturan investasi bagi penanam modal asing agar tidak mengganggu penanam modal dalam negeri.

Di Asia, Apple hanya membangun 3 toko fisik Apple Store, yaitu di Tokyo, Hong Kong, dan Shanghai.

Jika Apple tak berkenan membangun sendiri toko fisik Apple Store, langkah yang bisa dilakukan adalah menggandeng mitra lokal untuk membangunnya, seperti yang dilakukan Research In Motion (RIM) dengan salah satu distributornya Teletama Artha Mandiri (TAM) dalam membangun toko fisik BlackBerry.

Setelah mendapat persetujuan investasi di Indonesia, Apple sudah bisa memulai investasinya dalam bentuk apapun. BKPM tak dapat memastikan apa yang akan dilakukan oleh Apple. Begitu juga soal waktu, semua keputusan itu kembali pada Apple.

Yang jelas, Apple akan dihadapkan pada regulasi perdagangan yang berlaku di Indonesia, termasuk regulasi transaksi elektronik karena Apple telah membuka toko konten multimedia iTunes Store.

Kementerian Komunikasi dan Informatika telah mengeluarkan Peraturan Pemerintah No. 82 Tahun 2012 tentang Penyelenggaraan Sistem dan Transaksi Elektronik. Dalam Pasal 17 Ayat 2 disebutkan, penyelenggara sistem elektronik untuk pelayanan publik wajib menempatkan pusat data (data center) dan pusat pemulihan bencana (disaster recovery center) di wilayah Indonesia untuk kepentingan penegakan hukum, perlindungan, dan penegakan kedaulatan negara terhadap data warga negaranya.

Langkah ini menjaga agar data lokal tak dimanfaatkan pihak lain, dan membuat akses internet lebih cepat. Selain itu, keberadaan data center milik perusahaan internet global di Indonesia juga dapat menekan biaya bandwidth internet ke luar negeri yang harus dibayar penyedia jasa internet lokal atau internet service provider (ISP).

How to Uninstall Apps on Android: 7 Steps

Is your phone starting to get a little sluggish? Too many apps installed can bring your phone’s speed to a crawl. Follow this guide to remove those unused applications and free up some space on your device.
STEPS
METHOD 1 OF 2: UNINSTALLING THROUGH THE APPLICATION MANAGER
1
OPEN YOUR SETTINGS MENU. You can open this menu by pressing your device’s menu button and selecting Settings, or by tapping the Settings app in the application drawer. Scroll down to “Application manager”, typically located in the Device section.
2
FIND THE APPLICATION YOU WISH TO UNINSTALL. The Application manager is split into three sections: Downloaded, Running, and All. Browse for the app you want to uninstall and tap on it. You can sort by size or by name by pressing the Menu button.
3
SELECT THE APPLICATION. This will open the “App info” screen. From here you can stop the application from running, clear its stored data, or uninstall it. Select Uninstall to remove the app from your phone.
Not all apps can be uninstalled. If an app came preloaded on your phone, chances are it can only be disabled through this menu. To remove apps that came preinstalled, you will need to root your phone.
METHOD 2 OF 2: UNINSTALLING THROUGH ADB
1
ROOT YOUR PHONE. The process is different for every device, but essentially rooting your phone gives you access to system applications and developer tools. The only way you can remove programs that come preinstalled by a carrier is to root your phone first.
2
DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL THE ANDROID SDK. The SDK (Software Developer Kit) runs on your computer. You can get the Android SDK directly from Google. This program will give you command line access to your device when it is connected to your computer.
3
CONNECT YOUR ROOTED PHONE TO YOUR COMPUTER. Turn on USB debugging mode for your device. To do this, open the Settings, then scroll down to the System section. Tap “Develop options” and slide the switch at the top to ON. Scroll down and check the box next to “USB debugging.”
4
FIND THE APP TO UNINSTALL. Open up ADB and enter the following commands:
adb shell
cd system/app
This will list all of the applications installed on your phone. Find the one that you want to remove and type:
rm appname.apk
reboot
This will uninstall the application and reboot the phone to complete the process.
WARNINGS
Be careful when uninstalling applications from the ADB terminal. If you remove applications necessary for your device’s operation, you may render the device inoperable. Always research the apps you are going to delete.
