I have the need to get data from old 5录-inch floppy disks but I don't know how without using those antique computers. Even if I did use the antiques moving the data would be difficult.How can I get the data off a 5 录-inch floppy without using obsolete computers?
Check eBay or something similar. You may find just the drive or you may need to pickup an antique computer to harvest the 5 1/4 inch floppy drive.How can I get the data off a 5 录-inch floppy without using obsolete computers?
You're gonna need something to read it.
You will have to find a 5 1/4 drive somewhere...that's the only way to read that disk....
do you have any ancient computers? Otherwise you have to get something to read the floppy disks, or just lose the data.
get a floppy drive and plug it into your computer. other than that, theres really no other way

How to calculate a confidence interval given only sample data?
I'm given 20 data points from a sample in a population that is normally distributed and asked to calculate a 94% confidence interval. My question is what to do with standard deviation since it's not given. Can I still use a Z score in calculating margin of error or do I need to calculate a t-score, and if so, how do I do that and what is the formula?How to calculate a confidence interval given only sample data?

How to be a security expert in network and data administration?
Hi.I wanted to know about the persons who are called security expert or working to protect the network or data from the hackers.What are the courses available to know all these about network security?What are the qualifications needed to work as a security expert in a company?Thanks to all for your important suggestions?How to be a security expert in network and data administration?
Probably the most widely-recognised security-related courses are given by the SANS institute (http://www.sans.org/). They are not for beginners, though: you'll need a solid grounding in network and operating system configuration and deployment.
Be prepared for disappointment if you try to get a job armed solely with qualifications. Experience is everything in this industry.How to be a security expert in network and data administration?
I have many experience network administration....

Depends what level of Security is required. My company trains people up. You could become a SOX tester they are in demand, you could learn about ethical hacking. Suggest you find out some courses on offer.
Most of the best people working in those fields started as the hackers they are now protecting against.
You need a tremendous knowledge of computers and systems, and good imagination. Having the soul of a bandit is ai help too, so you can anticipate how the hackers will come at you.
So if you think this is a field for you, hack into the personnel records of a large company and read the resume of the technical security chief.

How to safely erase all data from an external hard drive?

I have personal data that I would like to completely get rid of before selling.How to safely erase all data from an external hard drive?
http://www.dban.org/ will prevent data from being restored. You have to download %26amp; burn the disk image, then boot to it. Be very careful that you erase the external drive, and not the one with Windows on it!How to safely erase all data from an external hard drive?
Sorry but DBAN wipes out ALL hard drives on the computer. I ONLY want to wipe out my external hard drive.
Also, DBAN does NOT wipe out any USB devices or removable media, meaning I CANNOT wipe out an external hard drive.
Download a program like Secure Erase, or Eraser and run it on the drive. It will take a few hours, especially with a drive that size, but it will overwrite all the data multiple times to destroy anything you previously saved on there.

How do I show the data on my excel pivottable?
I highlighted the two data columns I wanted to use. Then went to create the pivottable. I then took my two data catagories and assigned them to the top and left of my table. I can't seem to add data into the part that says ';drop data items here';. If I double click a cell it opens a new worksheet showing the data associated with that cell. How do I show the data on my excel pivottable?
You have to link ';count'; to the row information.
I don't have excel in front of me to be able to get the exact instructions, but you should get a pop-up box when you click on a field button that has a drop-down list at the bottom where you can choose rows or columns, etc and then you click on an item from the list in the white box above to link the information to that part of the pivot table.
Somewhere there (or in the pivot table) you have to tell the pivot table to 'count' the data.

How do I add data to a chart in Excel 2008 for Mac?
I am having a problem with this new version of Excel. I right click the chart, chose select data, add a new series and highlight my desired x and y values then return to the chart.

Thanks!How do I add data to a chart in Excel 2008 for Mac?
My guess is that the data for the 3rd series is off the scale of the existing graph. Maybe you just need to change the X scale or Y scale (or both).

How does data gets input, processed, stored and output on a computer?
I want to know how does information we put into the computer is inputted, stored and then outputted.
Go as indepth as you can please.
Write about the data's travel throught the Motherbaord etc.
Thank you.How does data gets input, processed, stored and output on a computer?
The data is inputted through any input devices such as:
-The Mouse
-The Keyboard
-Joystick
-Bar code Scanner
-Rotation or any types of sensor
Of course, there are also I/O Devices (Input/Output). An example of this can be a touch screen.
The information which is inputted, for example from the keyboard, is represented as a binary number for every item inputted. This is then represented as an electrical current which travels in bits.
The information, when saved, is saved on the RAM (Rapid Access Memory) for a while and then to the ROM (Read-Only Memory), which is more of a permanent basis. The data is then fetched from the place where it is stored, may it be the hard disk, at outputted in whatever device there is, such as a screen for images or text or speakers for music or any type of sound.
OK?

What must I include in a legend that represents a scientific data e.g legend for table, bar graphs?
So confused please help! Do I need to compare the data? or is comparing for the analysis only.
Or do I just explain how i obtained the data?What must I include in a legend that represents a scientific data e.g legend for table, bar graphs?
A legend of a graph (or rarely a table) is a list of details about the graph that enables people to understand your data. It is usually presented in a box next to the graph.
for instance - if on your graph little red triangles represent dogs, little blue circles represent cats and little green squares represent parrots then you would have in your legend a little blue circle with CATS written next to it, a little green square with PARROTS written next to it and a little red triangle with DOGS written next to it.
That way people can look at your graph and know what bits refer to dogs, cats and parrots.
On a bar graph - you may have a blue bar for cats, a green bar for parrots and a red bar for dogs. In this case you would have a little red box with DOGS, a little blue box with CATS and a little green box with PARROTS in your legend so people knew which bar represented data about which animal.
Hope that is clear enough.Bracelet software

How do you present different sets of data on an excel scatter plot?
So I have groups of data and want to plot the entire thing on one scatter plot using Excel 2007, but I want to differentiate each set using different markers. For example, I have 50 data points, and I let's say 4 groups of data, and I want to use different markers for each of the 4 groups so they are distinguishable. How do I do this? It's driving me crazy.

Zip and rar, since they were designed to compress program files (where 1 bit changed would be disaster) don't lose any quality.
However, jpg files, mp3 files, etc., are already compressed. Zipping or raring them simply stores them - the resultant file is larger than the sum of the files in it (it's the files plus the catalog of the files).
You can use 7-zip or Zip Genius - both are free (totally different interfaces, but they do the same thing). WinRAR is shareware, it's not free.How do I compress my music without losing data or quality?
Zipping and Unzipping files will not lose any quality. The files will be exactly as they were before you compressed them. If you are using Windows XP or Vista you don't even need any additional software. Both have a built-in compression utility. Simply Right Click a file/folder and select Send To %26gt; Compressed (zipped) Folder.

How do I recover data from a mechanically defective hard drive?
I have a maxtor external hard drive which apparently was physically damaged. I think the circut board went on the blink. When I plug it in the center of the board becomes real hot and then starts to smoke. It is here I have all back up business data. How can I retrieve this data on the drive? I know it can be done because they do it all the time in criminal cases. Can I put a new circut board on the drive?How do I recover data from a mechanically defective hard drive?
switching the IDE board on the drive, with the EXACT same model, size etc, you would be able to recover the data.
If this isn't an option, then you could find a local data recovery agencyHow do I recover data from a mechanically defective hard drive?
Then I wouldn't be plugging it in.
If it's an external drive and it is the circuit on the case not the drive that is getting hot and smoking then taking the drive itself out and putting it inside a computer might help (or might destroy the computer you put it into, though I think that's unlikely) and then hopefully you can copy something across.
In criminal cases they pay data recovery agencies to recover the data and whilst they can often get the data off the drive they charge you a lot of money for the service (though the good ones at least won't charge you if they can't get anything). To put a new circuit board on the drive you'd need to get a board from the exact same model drive which is going to be hard to do, a data recovery service could do it for you if you've got the cash to spare and really need that data.
In future you'd be better off just storing anything that you can't afford to lose in at least two places, backups are a lot cheaper than data recovery services.
