Moving to a Galaxy S5 will require a Google account and with it a Gmail account. But that doesn't mean you need to totally leave behind all your iCloud stuff, at least, not to begin with anyway. It's easy to move your contacts over to Google, as well as sync your iCloud email account and calendars to your new Galaxy S5.

But if you want access to them all straight away on your new Galaxy S5, perhaps consider using a cloud service. Dropbox, <a href="http://www.imore.com/iphone-photographers-how-does-new-google-stack-against-rest" style="background: transparent; border: 0px none; color: #0f92ff; cursor: pointer; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Google+</a> and Flickr are just three of the popular options which have similar support across both iOS and Android. But there are plenty of options out there.</div> <div style="border: 0px none; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 26px; margin-bottom: 0.75em; margin-top: 0.25em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> You'll also want to take action to turn off iMessage on your iPhone as soon as you can before firing up your Galaxy S5. A known – and exceedingly frustrating – issue where folks can't get messages because iMessage tries to intercept anything sent to you from an iPhone. Luckily, there's an easy fix which we've linked below.</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div>

Begin your day with some brilliant lovemaking. After all, morning sex is not only good for your love life, it is also beneficial health-wise. So surprise your partner by trying out the following tips and heighten the pleasures of that early morning rendezvous...<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />This may not seem too relevant at the time, but always remember to relieve yourself of bodily fluids before you head to bed the night before. Nothing kills the mood more than trying to hold back the urge to visit the bathroom, while you are about to do it!<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- Don't forget to brush your teeth the night before. Also, consider keeping some dissolvable mints (NOT chewing gum) at your bedside to pop, when you wake up. Bad breath can ruin any sexual experience.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- Try initiating sex in a different way, instead of opting for the same old predictable routine. Give your man a sexy 'wake-up call'. To do this, play some soft romantic music, and as soon as you both are awake and aroused, quietly slip out of your clothes. He'll definitely get the hint.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- Keep condoms in an arm's length of the bed, for you never know what the early morning cuddling may lead to. You definitely don't want to scavenge the room searching for them.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- Morning sex is refreshingly primal because it is difficult to hide your physical flaws, thanks to the view daylight offers. So let go of your inhibitions and draw back the shades; enjoy sex with a visual thrill!<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- You could experiment with positions too. Since you both will be groggy, try a position like spooning that requires little effort.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- Your sexcapade need not be restricted to the bedroom. Take a hot-water shower together. You can rub aromatic body gel on each other's bodies, so that the scent arouses both of you.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- After your lovemaking session, you can make your man feel special by getting him his favorite breakfast in bed.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- If you are running late but still don't want to miss out on spending time with your partner, indulge in a quickie. Mornings are the perfect time, because you will probably be in a rush, and the heart-pounding adrenaline of hurried sex will intensify the entire experience. Also, quickies don't necessarily have to end in intercourse. A hot-and-heavy makeout session, before you dash out of the door for work, will go a long way towards igniting your passion.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />Why morning sex is good for you...<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- People who begin their day with sex are healthier and happier than those who simply opt for a cup of tea and breakfast before heading out of the door. No points for guessing the reason!<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- Having sex in the morning releases the feel-good chemical oxytocin, which makes couples feel bonded all day long.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- Apart from the fact that regular morning sex makes you feel upbeat for the rest of the day, it also helps in building a stronger immune system.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- Believe it or not, it makes you less susceptible to catching a cold or flu and can also improve the quality of your hair, skin, and nails.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />- Having morning sex three times a week lessens the risk of a heart attack or stroke. What are you waiting for?</div> <br /></div>

For most of us, the sound of the alarm clock blaring in our ears first thing in the morning is definitely not a happy sound. But ...

hide a folder quickly on your Windows PC?

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Need to hide a folder quickly on your Windows PC? Well, here’s a very simple way using only Windows and no third party software. This method of hiding files and folders in Windows is quite rudimentary, which means that anyone who knows what they’re doing with computer will easily be able to find it. However, it’s a great way to hide folders from people like your parents or people who only know the basic functions of a computer.</div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> In addition, since it’s a hidden folder , if someone doesn’t know it exists, they may never bother to look for it especially if you hide it deep in the operating system directories. It doesn’t really matter if it’s easy to un-hide. Again, only use this method if what you are trying to hide is from your parents and not the police.</div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> So first of all, if you have a folder you want to hide, don’t create the folder in some obvious place such as My Documents, but instead put it in a location that someone would typically not inside. For example, create a new folder under <span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">C:\Program Files\Common Files</span>. Creating a folder there doesn’t hurt anything and not many people go browsing through there anyway since it’s mostly just system installation files. The good thing about Windows is that there is not an easy way to search the computer for just hidden files and folders, so that makes this method slightly more useful.</div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Now that you have your folder created in a strange location and your files stored in that folder, we can make it hidden. Setting a folder to <span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Hidden</span> in Windows is as simple as changing one of the properties of the folder. Windows Explorer reads this property and appropriately shows or hides the folder. However, there is an option in Windows Explorer called <span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">“Show hidden files and folders”</span> that will display all folders no matter what the hidden property value is set to.</div> <div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 1.5em; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> We need to change that setting so that hidden files and folders are not to be shown. Also, this is why I mentioned not storing the hidden folder in an obvious location. Even if show hidden files and folders is enabled, if the folder is somewhere obscure, no one will see it. In order to do this, click on <span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">My Computer</span>from your desktop and from the menu click on <span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Tools</span>and then <span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Folder Options</span>. In Windows 7, you can click<span style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: inherit;

Do you keep piling on the kilos, no matter how many diets you try? The problem may have more to do with your general health than with your food.</div> <div style="background-color: white; color: #4f4f4f; font-family: Arial, Vrinda; margin-bottom: 17px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"> According to report of India’s popular newspaper Hindustan times, here are simple solutions that can help you beat the bulge.<br /> <br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /> <strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Need more sleep</strong><br /> If you don't sleep well, then the body's hormone axis doesn’t work properly. They affect metabolism and eventually lead to weight gain. Doctors say if you aren't sleeping, your body won't be digesting food normally either. Besides, people suffering from insomnia often snack through the night or drink coffee, which makes the problem worse.<br /> <br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /> <strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">You're depressed</strong><br /> The problem here is twofold. Most people share an emotional relationship with food. So when depressed, they tend to eat more. However, antidepressants can also stimulate the appetite as, when people feel happier, thanks to the medication, they overeat.<br /> <br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /> <strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">You're stressed</strong><br /> When adrenaline (the stress hormone) kicks in, the body produces more cortisol, which in turn causes hunger. When you're stressed it's tempting to turn to unhealthy ready meals, high-calorie snacks or alcohol. Stress can also make you feel lethargic. All of these factors take their toll on the waistline.<br /> <br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /> <strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Thyroid to blame</strong><br /> Hypothyroidism, or an underactive thyroid, slows down the metabolism; many people find they put on weight while it goes undiagnosed. With treatment, the hormones will balance out and weight will soon return to normal.<br /> <br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /> <strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">PCOS syndrome</strong><br /> Many overweight women suffer from polycystic ovary syndrome, or PCOS. They have a resistance to insulin, just like people with diabetes, which in the case of PCOS makes it difficult for them to convert the male hormone testosterone in the ovaries into the female hormone oestrogen. Higher levels of testosterone in the body will make sufferers put on weight and the insulin resistance does the same thing because the body can't utilise the calories it is taking in.<br /> <br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /> <strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Eating late at night</strong><br /> Studies have shown that people who consume the same calories as others, but eat them an hour or two before going to bed will put on more weight than those who eat earlier. This is because the body is aware that you are not being active, so it stores the calories by turning them into fat. It takes the body longer to convert this stored fat into energy again.<br /> <br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /> <strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">You've cut out carbs</strong><br /> We all know you need a balanced diet to be healthy but for many of us, cutting out carbs is a sure-fire way to reduce a few kilos quickly. However, when you eliminate something from your diet, the body starts to crave it. Carbs are important building blocks for the body to turn into energy.</div> </div>

10 tips to protect your Android device

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="news-top" style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #4f4f4f; font-family: Arial, Vrinda; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;"> <img alt="10 tips to protect your Android device" src="http://bdmail24.net/article_images/2014/10/21/Android-Devices.jpg" style="background-color: #eeeeee; border: 0px; float: left; height: auto; margin: 0px 10px 0px auto; max-height: 550px; max-width: 300px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px; vertical-align: middle; width: 275px !important;" /></div> <div style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #4f4f4f; font-family: Arial, Vrinda; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"> Android is the most popular mobile platform in India as well as the world. One of the major reasons for its popularity is the flexibility it offers in terms of customization and the abundance of third-party apps.</div> <div style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #4f4f4f; font-family: Arial, Vrinda; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px; text-align: justify;"> Apps can even be side-loaded, bypassing Google’s Play Store app marketplace. However, all this also makes Android vulnerable to security threats and malware. Moreover, with our increasing reliance on smartphones and tablets, we’re storing more private data than ever before, leaving us more vulnerable to data thefts.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />So how do you protect yourself from losing precious personal and work data accessed via Android devices? Here are 10 tips to help you secure your Android gadgets:<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Use a screen lock</strong><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />The most basic security measure for every Android device, a screen lock allows you to guard the device by using a pattern, PIN or password.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />The lock can be activated through the Android device’s Security Settings. Following the activation of the lock, the device can be set to lock automatically after a specific time period or by pressing the Power key.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Encrypt your device</strong><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />Android allows you to encrypt all the data on your device. You’ll need to key in a password or PIN each time the device is turned on to decrypt all the data.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />If the phone gets into the wrong hands, there’s no way to access the data without a password or PIN if the device is restarted. This way, your sensitive data stays safe though the device becomes a little slow.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />It can be activated through the Android device’s Security Settings.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Using personal device for work? Talk to IT</strong><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />According to security solutions firm ESET, around 30-40% of devices in workplaces are vulnerable to threats unless users are educated about risks.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />If you plan to use your personal device for work, check with your workplace’s IT team before configuring it to access and store work related data.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Activate Google’s Android Device Manager</strong><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />Even if you lose your device, the Android Device Manager feature allows you to track a (connected) device on Google Maps.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />It also enables you to ring the device at full volume for five minutes and even erase all the data.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />To verify if it's enabled, you can go to the Settings menu on your device and tap on Security. It can be enabled through the Device Administrators setting under Security Settings.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Don’t store sensitive data on SD cards</strong><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />Make sure you don’t store sensitive information such as copies of credit cards and personal IDs on external storage cards since it is easy to remove them and access the data stored.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />If you need to store important information, keep it on internal storage.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Don’t install apps from unknown sources</strong><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />While apps on the Google Play Store are not curated as diligently as Apple’s App Store, it is still the safest place to download and install apps on Android platform.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />Installation files (APKs) sourced from third-party sites should be dealt with caution as they might hide malware or spyware.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Install locks for apps</strong><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />You can use additional protection for apps like Gallery and Messaging to protect private data.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />A number of apps are available on Play Store that offer an additional level of protection for individual apps. Such apps ask you to set up a password or PIN code that needs to be entered whenever you open the particular protected apps.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Don’t root your phone</strong><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />By rooting your phone, you can install custom Android ROMs and even some incompatible apps.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />However, apps with root access get unhindered access to your device’s file-system, exposing it to more damage in case a malicious app is installed. It also voids your phone’s warranty.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><strong style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;">Keep your device software up to date</strong><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />Google releases software updates that also include several security patches.<br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" /><br style="margin: 0px; outline: none medium; padding: 0px;" />Check for software updates using the device Settings, where you’ll find a System Updates option in the About Device menu.</div> <br /></div>
