A lot of lag on windows 8/8.1 only but not windows 7

• A lot of lag and beach balls

  I have the mid 2010 macbook pro - 4 GB ram, 2.4 gHz processor intel i5 and only using 175 GB / 320 GB disk sata hard.  This whip sees a lot of lag and spinning of the beach, given balloons to my router probably needs an upgrade, its only a few years and would probably add little ram if possible with this MBP (?).

  Maybe the community has experience and expertise to share on how to improve the speed and efficiency? I caught a few console newspapers from when there was a GAL.  Here are links for the console logs:

  a. http://pastebin.com/TqGJAiR0

  b. http://pastebin.com/4LyDPxFg

  Somewhere in time between the logs and b, I have deleted the DivX file in/Library/Application Support / and uninstalled Virtual Box, which was used to run Windows a few months for a project, but have not used since so a little cleaning it.

  Thanks in advance if you are generous and kind enough to take a look and offer advice. See you soon!

  1. the present proceedings is a diagnostic test. It doesn't change anything for the better or worse and therefore, by itself, will not solve the problem. But with the help of the results of the tests, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.

  The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later versions. I do not recommend running it on older versions of Mac OS X. It will do no harm, but it will not do not much good.

  Do not be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You make the tasks more complicated with the computer all the time.

  2. If you do not already have a current backup, please back up all the data before doing anything else. The backup is needed on the general principle, not because of what anyone in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you encounter any kind of problems with the computer, you can be more than the usual loss of data, if you follow these instructions or risk not.

  There are ways to back up a computer that is not fully functional. Ask if you need advice.

  3 here is instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it doesn't change anything. It does not send or receive data over the network. There is no to generate a report on the State of the computer human readable. This report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents for me or someone else.

  You should ask yourself if you can believe me, and if it is safe to run a program at the request of a foreign national. In general, no, he's not sure, and I encourage it.

  In this case, however, there are ways for you to decide if the program is safe without having to trust me. First of all, you can read it. Unlike an application that download you and click to start, it is transparent, anyone familiar with the code can check what it does.

  You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this site several times over a period of years. One of the million registered users to have read the script and set off the alarm if it was dangerous. Then I wouldn't be here now, and you would not be reading this message. See, e.g., this discussion.

  However, if you cannot satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, do not follow them. Ask other solutions.

  4. here is a general summary of what you need to do, if you decide to go forward:

  ☞ Copy a particular line of text to the Clipboard.

  ☞ Paste into the window to another application.

  ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.

  ☞ Stick the results, which will be copied automatically, in a response on this page.

  These are not specific instructions; just a glimpse. The details are in parts 7 and 8 of this comment. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait and paste it again. You don't need to copy a second time.

  5. try to test in conditions that replicate the problem, to the extent possible. For example, if the computer is slow intermittently, run the test during a downturn.

  You may have started up in safe mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works pretty well in normal mode to test run, restart as usual before running it. If you can test only in safe mode, this.

  6. If you have more than one user and a user is affected by the problem, and the user is not an administrator, and then run the test twice: once under the affected user and one administrator. The results can be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer, when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you are unable to log in as an administrator, verify that the user concerned. More personal Mac have only one user, and in this case this section does not apply. Don't log in as root.

  7 load the linked web page (the site "Pastebin.") Press the combination of keys command + A to select all the text, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing command-C.

  8. start the Terminal application integrated in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Click anywhere in the Terminal window to activate it. Paste from the Clipboard into the window by pressing Command + V, then press return. The text that you pasted should disappear immediately.

  9. If you logged in as an administrator, you will be prompted for your login password. Nothing displayed when you type. You won't see the usual points instead of the characters typed. Make sure that caps lock is turned off. Type carefully, and then press return. You can get a warning to be careful. If you make three unsuccessful attempts to enter the password, the test is still running, but it will produce less information. If you do not know the password, or if you prefer not to enter, just press back three times at the password prompt. Yet once again, the script will run.

  If the test takes much longer that usual to run because the computer is very slow, you can be prompted for your password a second time. The permission you grant by entering it will expire automatically after five minutes.

  If you are not logged as an administrator, you will be prompted for a password. The test will run. It just will not do anything that requires administrator privileges.

  10. the test may take a few minutes to run, depending on the number of files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that is abnormally slow may take more time to run the test. During execution, a series of lines is displayed in the Terminal window like this:

      Test started

          Part 1 of 4 done at: … sec        …        Part 4 of 4 done at: … sec

      The test results are on the Clipboard.

      Please close this window.

  The intervals between the parties will not be exactly the same, but they give an approximate indication of progress.

  Wait for the final message "Please close this window" appears. If you don't see it in about 15 minutes, the test probably won't be all within a reasonable time. In this case, press the Ctrl + C key combination or the point command to stop it. Then go to the next step. You will have incomplete results, but still something. If you close the window of the Terminal, while the test is still running, the partial results will not be saved and you have to start over.

  11. when the test is completed, or if you have stopped it because it was taking too long, leaving the Terminal. The results have been saved to the Clipboard automatically. They do not appear in the Terminal window. Please do not copy from there. All you have to do is start a response to this comment and then paste it again by pressing Command-V.

  At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words «Start time.» If you do not see that, but rather to see a mass of gibberish, you wait for the message "close this window". Please wait and try again.

  If personal information, such as your name or e-mail address, appear in the results, make anonymous before posting. Usually it will be not necessary.

  12. in the validation of the results, you see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the software which manages this website. Thanks for posting the results of the tests on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

  If you have an account on Pastebin, please do not select private in exposure menu to paste on the page, because no one else that you will be able to see it.

  13. This is a public forum and others can give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but what're told you to do maybe not. For others who choose to run it, I do not recommend that you view the results of test on this Web site unless I ask.

  14. the related UNIX shell script is a notice of copyright. ASC readers can copy for their personal use. The whole nor any part can be redistributed.

• I'm trying to upgrade to windows 7 Vista but not like the 40 GB c: partition has only 3 GB free.

  TRY TO UPGRADE TO WINDOWS 7 BUT C: DRIVE FULL DESPITE THE REMOVAL OF ALL UNNECESSARY PROGRAMS

  I'm trying to upgrade to windows 7 Vista but not like the 40 GB c: partition has only 3 GB free. Removed all unnecessary programs, etc. If you only really have Vista on C: drive but still showing 37GB used. Any ideas how I can release another 6 GB of free space.
  Tahnks a lot

  I hate to say it, but it would be a great time for a bigger hard drive.  While 40 GB meets at least for installation you really need more for in-place-upgrading a system using 37 GB.  Setup needs space for temporary files, its own temporary relocation, etc.

• No sound, Windows audio services is 'Automatic' but not 'started '.

  My PC runs Windows 7 (Vista upgrade) has a sound card, downloaded the newest manufacturer of PC sound card driver.

  Using "services.msc" and then found Windows audio services is set to "Auto" but not "started".

  Then click on this point, a new window appears which does not have a button 'START '.

  After pressing 'START' and then he said "failed to start audio service of windows on a local computer.

  "1068" error code

  ===========================================

  There is a program that can fix it: but do not know how much it costs, and if it works.

  Thank you

  PS: I forgot the the 'password of the administrator", I bought this computer and I'm the only one using this computer.

  The suggested solutions for trying, shouldn't the password, because I won't be able to try.

  Update: tried "System Restore", he said that the system restore does not work correctly.

  I've been using other computers within the home and have not used this computer for a long time after the upgrade from Vista to Windows 7.

  There are a lot of suggestions, I tried it (suggested by someone here). :

  Define 'multimedia class Scheduler' to 'automatic '.

  Set the 'Plug and Play' to 'automatic '.

  Restart the computer, then checked "Windows Audio services.

  now, he says "Started" and "automatic".

  It works fine now.  Sound is back.

  Thank you very much.

• iPad displays in iTunes but not Windows 7 computer menu

  I have an iPad 3rd Gen (Wi - Fi only) with iOS 9.3.5 and I just updated my iTunes to 12.5.1.21 64-bit.

  now, it will not be displayed in the windows for me transfer photos. but it appears in iTunes and I can see here, but I want to transfer pictures manually.

  in devices and printers, it is listed under Unspecified as Apple Mobile Device USB Driver. in Device Manager, it appears only as Apple Mobile Device USB Driver, and when I check the hardware ID, it is USB/VID_05AC & PID_12A4 & REV_0310.

  I uninstalled iTunes (and all the modules of Apple) and reinstalled, rebooted the iPad AND computer, tried stop and start the Apple Mobile Device service and MANUALLY install the driver in the folder files, as it says on the Apple site.

  am I missing something, or is iTunes 12 just broken?

  Hello darkflux88,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

  I see that your iPad is recognized by iTunes, but not by the Windows 7 system. I have three support articles that relate to your problem. The first is more relevant for the iPad being not recognized by iTunes, but also contains information for the Windows operating system. The other two relate more directly to Windows does not recognize is not the iPad.

  If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod

• Satellite P100: Conexant audio only is not supported on Windows Vista 64-bit

  Last week, I install new Windows Vista 64-bit system, but not sound. I think it was the problem with the audio driver 64-bit. Is that someone has the new driver for vista 64-bit?

  It seems that some devices are not recognized by Vista common drivers that were shipped with the Vista operating system and therefore the new drivers are needed. But because Vista is not official on the market (official start is late January 2007) drivers are not published.

  But where did you get the version of Vista 64-bit?

• Video is lagging / choppy on Final Cut Pro reading but the audio is perfect

  Hello

  So I am using FCP for 2 weeks or more and I have been editing videos without problem but today something super odd happened. After editing as I like, I saw the video and it's suuuuuper laggy/choppy but the sound was perfect (in quality and timing). When I stop the video for a few seconds, although the video can be synchronized back but then return to be lag after a few seconds. I tried exporting it in the hope that maybe once it has exported it's going to work, but not luck. The entire video is not even to export. The video is about 4 minutes would export long and only 01:30. I am really confused and frustrated and hope someone can help!

  Also, I imported the original footage on an external hard drive if my computer would have more space. Not sure if that makes a difference, but I thought I should add that just in case.

  Thank you very much!

  Final Cut Pro: 10.2.2

  Theres not enough info here to diagnose the problem. The issue started when you copied data to another drive? In general, you want the media on a single disc and the application on another.

  Maybe car ram speed, maybe, I don't know what the requirements of the FCP are but check here:

• HP 2210 printer all-in-one: after updating WIndows 10, I can print but not scan with my HP 2210 all in one

  I've updated to Windows 10 and since then I can print but not scan with my HP 2210 all-in-one printer.  I tried to download the software updates, but nothing seems to work.  Any suggestions

  Hi @Sajapand @ddegan

  I see that you both scan problems after upgrade to Windows 10, and I may be able to help.

  Most of the products have updated software available on the HP support Web site for Windows 10.

  I also saw a few posts that say Windows 8.1 driver works for Windows 10 as well, then you could try also.

  HP provides a free tool called HP Print and Scan doctor to diagnose and troubleshoot printing and scanning problems. I recommend you to download and run the HP print and Scan Doctor , if she doesn't fix it automatically I would know what errors or messages that you receive.

  Do you know if you are able to scan using paint?

  To perform a scan of the painting: HP Multifunction printers - how Scan: Windows 8

  (This is the same for Windows 10, of what I said)

  1. Click the Start button () in the lower left corner of the screen, click on Searchand type Paint.
  2. Click on the painting in the results.
  3. Click fileand then click on from a scanner or camera.
  4. Select your printer, click OK, and then click Scan.

  Please let me know if any of these steps has resolved your problem, or if there is anything else I can do to help.

  I look forward to hear from you!

  Thank you

  Hello
  Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.
   
  By design, the game is not compatible with windows7.
   
  You can also check with the manufacturer of game for any version upgrade of this game, which could be compatible with windows7.

  Yes, if you have the dual operating system on your computer, you can play and record games on xp, start the computer in Xp and you can play the game.

  I also invite you to visit this link to learn more about running the old programs/games in xp or vista compatibility mode.

  Here is the link:
