If your Acer Iconia Tab is not functioning properly – for example, not responding when you press buttons or tap the tablet computer’s touch-sensitive display – it’s a good idea to do a simple hardware reset.

If the operating system is performing sluggishly, has become corrupted or is otherwise still performing poorly after you have done a hardware reset to restore button and touchscreen functionality, you will want to do a factory reset on the Iconia Tab....

In most cases, the duplicate IP addresses can be detected using the DHCP servers and checking the configuration of the machines on the LAN segment. In extreme cases, Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) messages have to be monitored to determine which machines are in conflict....

Fixing the wire to your Bose headphones is a reasonably simple process, once you’ve determined whether it’s an inline break or a bad connector....
