Transfer contacts from Nokia Phone (Symbian) to Google Phone (Android)
In the company I worked, I used Windows, Outllok and Nokia Phone N97mini. During that time I managed all my contacts at my company phone, which was used as private phone too. There is the standard tool from Nokia to synchronize contacts between Windows Outlook and the phone, called "PC Suite". In fact with PC suite there is much more possible, e.g. writing SMS messages on the PC (which is much more convinient).
Unfortunately there is no such tool for the Android driven Google phone, so one cannot easily transfer the contacts stored in outlook to Android.
Additionally my private computer runs with Linux, while the company computer is Windows driven.
I want to transfer the contacts from my Nokia Phone to the Android-phone (Google Nexus).
Viewing medical data (CT pictures) on Linux
I recently had to visit a CT institute to produce a series of CT-pictures depicting the internals of my nose (and parts of the head as well). The result was a series of about 120 pictures, each picture showing a small slice of the interesting region. They can be used by a medical doctor to examine the structure of the region of interest for example to prepare for a surgery. In theory it is also possible to create a 3D-model of the recorded region.
The institute provided me with the on-paper pictures as well with a CD, containing the examination-results in a dedicated format, called DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine). The CD also contains a windows-program to instantly show the results on screen of a windows-computer.
But... I do not use windows. How to show them in Linux?

Run MobileWorks with Python at Windows
- Download and install Python (Version 2.7.5), DO NOT download Python 3.x, mobileworks does not work with it.
- Download distribute 0.6.49, extract the zip to any arbitrary path. After extracting the files, switch to the distribute folder and run the following command:
>> python distribute_setup.py
After the setup has finished successfully, there should exist a “Scripts” folder in your python installation path. E.g.”C:\Python27\Scripts” -
Switch to the “Scripts” folder und run the following command:
>> easy_install.exe pip
Now should have successfully installed the python paketmanager – pip. -
As last step you now should get the mobileworks package by executing the following command:
>> pip install mobileworks
After the installation succeeded you are able to execute your mobileworks code the following way: - >> pyton file1.py
Example file: file1.py
# import the MobileWorks library
import mobileworks as mw
# to switch to the sandbox
mw.sandbox()
# provide your username/password
mw.username = 'username'
mw.password = 'password'
# create a task object
t = mw.Task(instructions="This question is created with Python2.7")
# set some parameters
t.set_params(resource="some_param")
# add the required fields
t.add_field("Name", "t")
# finally, post it and get the url of the newly created task
task_url = t.post()
print task_url
[I had this problem a while ago and solved it this way. You can find my original blog post at http://www.manuelmertl.com/mobileworks-python-windows/]

Netstat and Task Manager
Windows offers a small program which by default is already located in the classpath.
Launch the Windows Command Line by pressing Windowsbutton+R and typing "cmd".
Then type "netstat -ano" which will bring up a list of all active connections on your machine with the process ids being located in the right most column.
Once you find out which PID is blocking your port, launch the Windows Task Manager and switch to the Processes tab. If the PID is not already displayed you can select View->Select Columns.. and then place a checkmark next to PID.
Find the PID of your port-blocking process in the Task Manager and in the same row look up the process name.

How to use LAN services over the Internet ?
Local Networks have many advantages when it comes to more complicated services like file sharing, remote desktop, network printer usage or NAS. Of course, I could use web space like DropBox, and there might be many other ways to make LAN services available over the internet. But what I am searching for, is an all built-in solution which is secure and easy to use. I want be able to connect several clients together for my LAN services. Not at least, LAN-Party’s without all the disadvantages due do local management and mobility are one of my expectations.
How to sync folders with DropBox more simply !
DropBox is a nice tool and offers many features compared to other web space services. But it offers no advanced synchronization features for your OS. I have many folders such as my Firefox Bookmarks, University Files, etc., which I would like to backup in DropBox in order to use them, always up to date, on my PCs and Laptop. Of course, I could copy each folder manually to my DropBox folder, but that’s not what I call user friendly. I want an more efficient way to manage my synchronizations with DropBox.
Ports blocked under Windows
Sometimes when you want to install a service or launch a program (ie. apache or glassfish) on your Windows PC the port required by that program is already in use. Windows gives you no further information on the issue other than "in use".
