Q: Use one of the USB ports directly on the computer. Connecting to a USB hub may lead to slower transfer speeds or connection problems. The AutoPlay window will typically open, but it may not if you've disabled it in the past. You can select "Open folder to view files" or read on to open it without using the AutoPlay window. Windows may install a few drivers if you've never connected that particular USB drive before. A USB hub is an external device that allows you to plug multiple USB devices into a single USB port. It's the icon with the windows logo in the taskbar. By default, it's usually in the lower-left corner. It's to the right in the Start menu. This displays all the drives attached to your computer. You can also view your computer drives by pressing Win+E. You may have a shortcut on your desktop as well. In Windows XP, this is labeled "My Computer." Look in the "Devices with Removable Storage" section of the window. The USB drive may be labeled with the manufacturer or model name, or it may be labeled "Removable Disk." This will make it easier to send files to it later. The drive letter will be displayed in parentheses after the label, e.g "(E:)" or "(F:)". The bar underneath the drive will show how much space is available. Knowing the amount of free space can give you a general idea of how much music will fit on it. See the chart at the bottom of the article for some examples of drive sizes and the amount of music you can store. Use File Explorer to find the music files that you want to transfer. Your music files may be located in several different locations depending on your media player settings. Windows uses the "Music" folder as the default location for many programs. Music that you've downloaded may be in your Downloads folder. If you use Windows Media Player, you can right-click on an item in your library and select "Open file location" to view the folder that contains the files. If you use iTunes, right-click on an item in your iTunes library and select "Show in Windows Explorer." You can copy anything in the window by selecting it. You can drag a selection box, press Ctrl+A to select all of the items, or hold Ctrl and click each item you want to select. Right-click on your selected files and select "Properties." This will let you see the total size of your selected files, which you can compare with the available space on your USB drive. This displays a menu to the right of the selected files. It's in the menu that appears when you right-click a selected item in File Explorer. Alternatively, you can also click Copy in the menu that appears when you right-click a file. You'll be able to easily identify the USB drive by the label and drive letter. Alternatively, you can drag and drop your music files into the Flash Drive in Windows Explorer. You can also right-click and click Paste to paste music files that you have copied. The time this takes will depend on the number of files you are copying, the speed of your USB drive, and the speed of your computer. Make sure not to remove the drive while files are copying. This button has an icon of a USB plug with a checkmark. This is in the row of icons in the lower-right corner of the desktop, next to the clock. If you don't see the icon, click the arrow to display all of the icons. This will unmount your USB drive, allowing you to safely pull the drive out without damaging the files.
A: Insert the USB drive you want to use. Click the Start menu . Click Computer. Find your USB drive. Make note of the USB drive's label and letter. Check how much space is available on the drive. Find the music you want to transfer. Select the files and folders that you want to copy. Check the size of your selection. Right-click the selection. Select Send to. Select your USB drive. Wait while the music files to copy. Click the "Safely Remove Hardware" button in the System Tray. Select your USB drive from the "Safely Remove Hardware" menu.

Q: The first thyroid test that is generally taken by physicians is the TSH. TSH stands for "Thyroid Stimulating Hormone," which is created by the pituitary gland and stimulates the thyroid to create and release hormones T4 and T3. TSH can be thought of as the metaphorical "engine" of the thyroid gland, in that it determines the amount of thyroid hormone that is synthesized and then released from the thyroid into the body. A normal value for TSH is between 0.4 4.0 mIU/L. If your TSH is in this range, that is a good sign; however, a normal TSH value does not completely rule out thyroid problems. TSH values on the high end of normal can indicate potential thyroid problems that are evolving. Most thyroid problems require two or more tests to detect and diagnose, given the complex interplay of the various hormones that contribute to thyroid function. Your doctor may order more tests, even if your TSH is normal, if he still suspects that you may have a thyroid problem. TSH tells the thyroid to produce more T4 and T3, which are the hormones released from the thyroid (at the command of TSH) to act throughout the body. If your thyroid is underactive, then it is not releasing enough much T4 and T3, and so your pituitary gland will release more TSH to try and compensate. Thus, a high TSH may be a sign of hypothyroidism (a condition in which your thyroid gland is producing insufficient amounts of hormones). You will need further testing, however, to further investigate and to confirm such a diagnosis. In addition to a high TSH reading, hypothyroidism also presents with many clinical indications. Tell your doctor if you are experiencing any of the following signs or symptoms, which may be suspicious for hypothyroidism: Increased cold sensitivity Fatigue Unexplained weight gain Unusually dry skin Constipation Muscle aches and stiffness Joint pain and swelling Depression and/or other mood changes A slower than normal heart rate Thinning hair Changes to your menstrual cycle Slowed thinking or speaking On the other hand, if you have a very low TSH reading, it may be your body's response for your pituitary to produce less TSH due to an excess of thyroid hormone in the body (T3 and T4). As such, a low TSH may be an indication of hyperthyroidism (excess production of thyroid hormone). Again, further blood tests will be required to confirm such a diagnosis. A TSH reading alone can point your physician down a certain path, but in itself it is usually not diagnostic. Hyperthyroidism presents with many clinical indications, in addition to a low TSH reading. Tell your doctor if you are experiencing any of the following signs or symptoms that may be indicative of hyperthyroidism: A faster than normal heart rate Unexplained weight loss Increased appetite Sweating A tremor, often in your hands Anxiety, irritability, and/or other mood changes Fatigue More frequent bowel movements An enlarged thyroid gland (which can be felt in your neck, and is called a "goiter") Trouble sleeping Eyes that bulge or protrude more than they normally do (this sign is present in a certain type of hyperthyroidism called Grave's disease specifically, the eye abnormality is called "Grave's ophthalmopathy") If you have been diagnosed with a thyroid disorder and are receiving ongoing treatment for it, your doctor will likely advise that you receive regular TSH tests to check in on and confirm the effectiveness of your treatment. Ongoing monitoring can also ensure that your TSH level is within the target range. The treatment for hypothyroid and hyperthyroid conditions are very different. The target range for thyroid treatment is normally a TSH between 0.4.4.0 mIU/L, although this may vary depending upon the type of thyroid disorder you have. You will likely receive more frequent monitoring at the start of your treatment, until you settle into a routine where your TSH becomes quite consistent (at which point less frequent monitoring may be appropriate, usually about once every 12 months).
A:
Check to see if your TSH reading is in the normal range. Interpret the possible meanings of a high TSH reading. Look out for signs and symptoms of hypothyroidism. Evaluate the possible meaning of a very low TSH reading. Take note of signs and symptoms of hyperthyroidism. Use your TSH value to monitor ongoing thyroid treatment.
