The homegroup is the network you are connected to, and the devices in that network.
try right clicking the liberty book icon and select 'run as administrator'

SOURCE: i forgot my bios password

Laptops often do not have a dedicated CMOS battery, but use a hardwired device which you have to unsolder and solder back.
You don't want to do that without some decent experience.
There are two basic kinds of passwords that will be prompted for by the IBM BIOS, computer and HDD. (You can tell the difference by the icon prompt).
If this is a HDD password, there are no options for recovery in the US. Federal laws prohibit possession of the software to access the secure portion of the disk. The computer passwords are also not able to be cleared locally.
The unit can be sent to an IBM's maintenance and support center and they will either clear the PW or in some cases replace the planar. If you just purchased the laptop, contact the previous owner for the passwords. If not, then sending it in for maintenance is your best bet.

SOURCE: Had a problem with Toshiba

Power the laptop off. Unplug it. Remove the battery. Turn it over. Open the bottom panels. Look for a small battery. Unplug this battery. Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds. RE-Assemble everything. Turn it back on - hopefully it has cleared the settings and you will be prompted to enter the BIOS.

Is there anything on my Fire HD7 to sort my books or is there an App that you could recommend to use for this?

As to your husband's showing up on your Kindle. Do you have a "family account"? Go to Manage Your Content and Devices. Within the info on your device may be a line Family Library with a check box of Show "husband's" content. If you don't want his books on your device, uncheck this box.

As to organizing content, you can create Collections. Within the list of your books, there is a column called Collections. Go to a title and click the zero that appears in that column. It will say something like you don't have any books in a collection and ask if you want to create a collection. Create your category, such as Read, Unread, SciFi, Travel, Fiction, Nonfiction or whatever. After you've made the collection name, you can click a button at the bottom that says Add to Collections. You can add a title to multiple collections. After you created all your categories, it's easy to just click boxes and buttons.

Can you help me sign in

Usually when a device ask you to sign in its either because you've created an account or need to creat an account. Most computers or laptops ask this question for security reasons. To help prevent others from accessing your information. If you have not created an account, try creating a new one. If you're already done this the information will let you know that you already have an account and just log in using your email and password or user name and password. I hope this is helpful.

Verify security

Fix Mail Apps and Devices Show Incorrect Password Error After Enabling 2...
[Fix] Mail Apps and Devices Show Incorrect Password Error After Enabling 2-Step Verification in Microsoft or Gmail Account "2-step verification" is an important security feature which protects your online account whether its your email account or a social networking account. It asks for an extra security code each time you try to sign in to your account. This security code is sent to your registered mobile phone or alternative email ID.
Recently Microsoft enabled this 2-step verification feature for Microsoft accounts which are used for emails, Windows 8, XBox, etc. On the other hand Google is already providing two-step verification in its Gmail service since long time.
If you enabled 2-step verification feature in your Microsoft or Gmail account, you might be facing a weird issue. If you try to access your email account using an email client such as Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird, Microsoft Outlook, etc, it'll now allow you to sign in using your current password. It'll show you an incorrect password error message even if your password is absolutely correct. The same problem will also occur if you try to sign in using your Microsoft account in devices such as Xbox 360 or Android smartphones.
Now the question comes why does this problem occur? Why do these mail apps and devices not accept your correct password? The answer is very simple. These mail apps and devices were not designed to ask you for the extra security code which is required for 2-step verification. Since these apps and devices don't ask for security code, the 2-step verification procedure is not completed successfully, hence you can't sign in using your credentials in those apps and devices.
So what's the solution? The solution is very simple. Every company which provides 2-step verification feature, also allows you to create special passwords for these mail apps and devices. You can create separate passwords for each app and device and then you can use that special password to sign in to those apps or devices. Now those apps and devices will accept the new password and will allow you to access your account without any problem.
So if you have enabled 2-step verification feature in Microsoft or Gmail account and if you are facing login password problems in mail apps or devices, you just need to create above mentioned special passwords or codes to sign in without any problem.
Just follow these simple steps to create app passwords for your Microsoft or Gmail account:
A. Create App Password in Microsoft Account 1. Open your Microsoft account security settings page by clicking on following link:
Open Microsoft Account Security Settings Page
2. You'll see "App passwords" section at the bottom of the page which shows following information:
Some apps and devices don't support security codes. In these cases, you need to create an app password to sign in. 3. Click on "Create a new app password" link and it'll immediately provide you a new password generated randomly.
create_app_password_microsoft_account.png
Now you can use this new password to sign in to a 3rd party mail app or device.
B. Create Application Specific Password in Gmail Account

1. Open your Google account settings page by clicking on following link:
Open Google Account Settings Pag
2. Now click on "Security" tab given in left-side pane. Scroll down on the page and you'll see "Connected applications and sites" section at the bottom of the page.
3. Click on "Manage access" button and it'll open a new page showing following information:Some applications that work outside a browser aren't yet compatible with 2-step verification and cannot ask for verification codes, for example: email programs including Outlook, Apple Mail, or Thunderbird, older Android smartphones. To use these applications, you need to generate an application-specific password. 4. Type any desired name in given text box and click on "Generate password" button.create_application_specific_password_google_account.pngThat's it. It'll immediately provide you a new password which can be used in any mail app or device to sign in.PS: If you want to remove or disallow any mail app or device to access your account, you can remove existing app password or revoke access from devices using the same account security settings pages as mentioned in above instructions.
how that helps good luck.

How do I download Apps from the Itune store to my Ipod Touch

You need to create an iTunes account and then activate it to be able to download, you'll need that even if the apps are free. Activating your iTunes account means you will need to provide them your credit card information, so you have to have a credit card, without that, sorry...
Here's how to create an iTunes account:
1. From your computer, open iTunes and go to iTunes Store.
2. Once it opens, look at the top-right corner of the iTunes Store window and you will see there "Sign In". Click on it.
3. A pop-up window will then appear asking you to "Sign In" or to "Create New Account", of course, you must click "Create New Account".
4. Once you click "Create New Account", you'll be taken back to iTunes where there's already a welcome sign for you. Just click continue.
5. You'll be presented the iTunes Store Terms and Conditions. Click on the checkbox to put a check on it, then click "Continue".
6. After that you'll be ask to provide some basic information that'll be used to create you iTunes Store Account. Just fill-in all the info needed. You'll also gonna see some emailing options at the bottom, you can check or uncheck them, it doesn't matter. Once you've finished filling up all the necessary information, click "Continue".
7. Then, you'll need to provide some credit card information. Don't worry, this thing is safe, I've been using my account for 6 months already and there's no hidden charges, and if Apple said the app is free, it's really free. There's absolutely no surprises. So, provide them all the info that they need and click "Done".
After you click done, you'll be presented your Apple Account Information which you can modify anytime. Verify that all info are correct and click "Done", again.
After that, you're all set! Go to AppStore and download all you want!
I'll be providing some screen shots for this a little later.
