I don't leave the house without my cell phone now. It makes communicating fast and easy when you are on the go. Yet cell phone service contracts are complicated. And many phones have features that most owners  don't know how to use.

Let's help each other by sharing our cell phone triumphs and tragedies here.

Um hi sorry this wasn't the right subject but I didn't know where to type a new message so I was wondering if you know how to clean DVD's because some of my dvd's are skipping and missing some scenes and the scratches are really bad on it. Do you have any ideas on how to fix it?
Please respond as soon as you can thanks

I've seen, in addition to products you can purchase, that folks have used several household products to remove minor scratches or clean a DVD or CD to lessen the effects of the minor damage.... products included toothpaste, catsup/ketchup, even petroleum jelly.... used in a circular pattern of rubbing from the center of the disk to the outside and then rinsed with water and thoroughly dried so no water droplets are left on the disc..... No guarantee that any of those will work, just reported at different blogs and web sites and publications as solutions.....

Always a good idea to make a copy of a disc just as soon as that first little scratch is noticed, if not earlier, done before the playability is lost on the original disk.....

Also if you click the Help menu item at the top of the page, Sandy has some easy and well explained steps to show how to make a posting in the write subject folder....

Happy cleaning and repairing, hope something works.... Grin
