Microsoft surface 3 charging
You should have had in the box with your Surface 3 Tablet a charger. It will have a plug with 2 points that is for your power plug, and at the other end you will have a natty little flat magnetised plug for the side of your Tablet. Mine is at the bottom right slot, looking at the screen of your Tablet. Now when the power is turned on, a small bright light will glow. That is now informing you that the battery in your Surface is being charged. Now at the bottom right of your Task bar, that is the Bar on the bottom of your screen where you can place program short cut Icons for your convenience. Now the speaker Icon which is there toward the right-hand side and has a cross if off, or a different look when on. Now the next icon on its right is the one that tells you how much charge is in the battery, if you touch it, it will come on to the screen informing you how much charge you have in the battery. If I'm using my Surface a lot and I do I keep it on charge while I work as a precaution to keeping my Surface well topped up. Hope this helps.

I want to install Microsoft word on my ipad
Hi, you may have to go to the Microsoft home site, and ask for Microsoft Word or Office for iPad. There is one for both Apple and Android systems, but it is a little different to the one they have in their own Windows system. I use Open Source from Oracle it's free and it works well in my Windows 10 machine and Surface Tablet. Best of luck.

WILL APPLE FIX MY IPAD AIR IF IT DOESNT CHARGE FOR FREE
Apple only fixes it's products for free during guarantee period (mostly 1 year, 2 years with Apple Care Protection Plan), but before you send it to Apple check your charger, you need at least a current of 2Amps. If this is ok, check if the charger can charge other devices. If yes, go to a store selling iPads and check if you can charge your iPad with the charger of one of the sample products.

Can I get viruses on my tablet? how can I check for any?
Tablets can get viruses just like regular computers. Install a trusted virus scanner. AVG is free and works well. There are many others. If this tablet is not android based - there are plenty of free options depending on the operating system. Malwarebytes.org has a free scanner for malware that is great for pc's running the windows operating system.

I downloaded Bittorrent.exe but can't install or open it. Keep getting message that it can't be opened. What to do? Anyone?
Bitorrent movies- hmm. If this is a copied movie or a movie that is "leaked" or anything possibly infringing on a copyright in the u.s. you are looking for trouble. Bittorrent in the clear (NOT behind a VPN) tracks what you are doing. Your I.P address on the internet is logged and anything illegal is possibly being tracked. Just a heads up. I have yet to see anything that is legally downloadable when the words torrent and movie are in the same sentence. If you insist in trying to load this thing bittorrent is just a peer to peer file transfer program. Try VLC (google it) it can play most movie formats these days and is completely free. Once the movie is completely downloaded you can open it in bittorrent program by clicking on it- provided vlc is loaded on your p.c.

Cannot connect my AL300 3G to my new Microsoft Surface 2
Surface 2 have drivers?
If so, then if u can get into I, u may be able to try and install them, if it's not the Intel ones
Then I guess the best option I can think of would be, if your wanting to use the data sim, have a look online and see what 3g stick is comparable with surface 2, then from there
You could get an unlocked one or same brand as simcard provider and try that,
Sometimes there's comparability issues with these things.
Hope this helps somehow :-)

My I pad air won't start up after charge
double check to make sure your plug is in the wall outlet, and that you don't have a controlling wall switch off. this happens a lot in the car too, my charger has to be rotated to get the cigarette lighter connection just right.

My Allfine 7 inch laptop keeps freezing when I
Hi
I think you have never cleaned the disk anytime since you purchased the computer.
Clean
temporary internet files
uninstall all the unwanted software
run anti-spyware
run anti-virus
clean the million icons on your desktop
update operating system patches
run disk tools ( defragmentation, error correction )
and finally dont forget to clean the recycle bin.
Also
if you have an option to look at task manager and check the memory used
and processes running, it will give you more insight on what processes
are responsible for this hang problem but ofcourse you have to find a
way to do that before it hangs. dont click on desktop as u said this is
causing it to hang.
If this doesnt help, buy a hammer from walmart :)

I have a mini 7" laptop with operating system
There are supposedly ways to do it, but they require using TCPMP like you said. I will post the exact instructions below. Windows CE is actually what is used on PDA's and Phones and isnt ideal for a mini laptop or netbook. Do you use your netbook for mainly light stuff like internet and word processing? I would suggest going with a Linux OS like Ubuntu, it runs very fast on light resources and you can load everything you need, and for free. Here are the instructions for TCPMP if you want to try it again:
1
Download TCPMP on your Windows CE browser (see link in Resources section).
2
Double-click the file once the download has finished to begin installing the media player to your Windows CE device. If prompted for an installation directory, click "Main Memory."
3
Download FlashVideoBundle (see link in Resources section), then double-click the file to install it. Choose the same location to install this file.
4
Turn your Windows CE device on and off. Click "Start," then "Programs." Click "Video Sites" to load up a list of compatible video sites (including YouTube). Click "TCPMP" to load the settings for your player. Change any of the settings to your personal preference, then click "OK."
5
Watch YouTube videos on your Windows CE device as you normally would on a full version of windows.
