Do you own an Apple devices? If yes, then this article will be really fruitful for you. As we know, without Apple ID, you cannot donwload apps from appstore. Creating Apple ID is compulsory for you to fully enjoy for iOS device.

If you had attempted to make Apple ID earlier then you might have been asked to enter your credit card details. I'm sure not all of us have Visa Card. However, making apple is a lot more easier without using your credit card details but  you have to follow certain steps as mentioned below.

Process:

Step 1: Open iTunes and go to Appstore.

Step 2: Select any free app to download(not Paid). 
Step 3: Click on Get

A dialog box will appear. Since, you don't have Apple ID, you cannot login so you have to create one.

Step 4: Click on Create Apple ID.
Step 5: Now, a new link will appear as shown below. Click on Continue.
Step 6: Read the License Agreement and Agree the terms to proceed ahead.
Step 7: Fill up the necessary details and click on Continue.

You will directed to the payment info. Most of us get strucked here.

Did you noticed the NONE. This option is only since you tried to download free app. If you had created directly then you won't get this NONE option.

Step 8: Fill up the necessary details. Don't worry it won't ask you to enter your credit card details. Finally click on Continue.
Remember, you can also change your country.
Step 9: Go to your inbox and validate your email address.

This is the most easiest way to create free Apple ID. I did this in iTunes but you can also do this from your phone directly. Always remember to start the process by trying to download Free App from Appstore.

If you got any problems, please let us know through comments. We are always there to help you.

By default, the Administrator account is disabled in Windows 7 and Windows 8. Though the account you create during the setup, possess administrative rights, yet it might be necessary sometimes to perform tasks with Administrator account. There's actually no need to enable administrator account since you can execte programs that need administrative priviledges by simply right click and selecting Run as Administrator. For educational purpose it's better to learn how you can easily enable and disable Administrator account.

Process to Enable Administrator Account
Step 1: Search for Command Prompt in Start Menu. When you find it, Right click on it and select Run as Administrator

Step 2: Type the following command and press enter.
net user administrator /active:yes

It is important that you run command prompt as administrator else you will get error as shown below:

Now you can sign out and check. You will see your Administrator account enabled.

Process to Disable Administrator Account
Step 1: Search for Command Prompt in Start Menu. When you find it, Right click on it and select Run as Administrator

At present, it's better to learn different languages so that it can be helpful for you. Besides, your mother tongue you must be much more familier with English language. Here, I will be showing you how you can learn international languages like French, Spanish, English, German, Polish, Russian and many more at your home without spending a penny. I have tried this personally and found it effective.

I suggest you to download an android application named 'Duolingo'.It's completely free to download. Click here to download

After the installation, launch the application and you would see home screen as shown below. Tap on Get Started to proceed.

After that, you will see list of Languages that Duolingo offers to teach you. Choose any one which you want to learn.

Then you are prompted to choose the amount of time you can manage to learn the language in "Pick A Daily Goal".Select any appropriate one. You can always change this goal later.

I am interested in learning German Language. After the above step, you need to select your Level.If you do not have any knowledge about the language you selected then I would suggest you to select Beginner mode.


Your lessons starts from basic level and gradually increases as per your progress.

For Beginner you are given  questions.After selection of picture you can listen to the  pronunciation.

If you have knowledge about the language that you are trying to learn, you are tested randomly for around 5 minutes and then your test is made accordingly thereafter.
After your test is over for a day,your progress graph is made at the end.

Conclusion: Duolingo is one of the most effective free application to learn different languages without any cost. It is easier to devote time and learn language at any time. I used it for couple for months and I found this really effective.

Disk partitioning means the act of dividing your hard drive into multiple volumes. By doing so, you can create as many partitions as per your requirements. You can partition your drive using various 3rd party software. However, in this article I will teach you how you can effectively partition your hard drive without any software.

You don't need any advance skills. You can do it by following few easy steps mentioned below.

Process of Disk Partition
Step 1: Right Click on 'My Computer' icon and Select 'Manage' as shown below.
Step 2: Click on 'Disk Management' located at the bottom.
OR
You can also directly open Disk Management with Shortcut command. 
Step 1: Open Run ( Win key + R) and
Step 2: Type 'diskmgmt.msc' and press Enter.

Step 3: Now select the volume you want to partition. I am partitioning my F: drive. Right click on it and select Shrink.

Step 4: Now enter the amount of space to shrink in MB and click on Shrink. For example: 50 Gb = 50000MB
You can see in the image below, you can see that 96 GB F: drive space has been reduced to aprrox 50GB (highlighted in Red) and the remaining space can still be used to create another partition or extend other drive space.

Process for extending your Drive 
Step 1: Right click on the drive you can to extend and select 'Extend'.

Step 2: Enter the amount of space in MB that you want to extend and click on Next. You're done.


I extended my F: drive. You can see below.

Conclusion: I performed the disk partition in Windows 8.1. You can follow the same procedures in previous version of Windows. The best thing is that you can create new partition even from drive with files and extend them in Windows 8.1 which was not possible in Window 7 and Window XP without using any software.

If you have any queries then comment below. I will be always there to solve your issues.
