Another computer can access my personal files across the LAN?
Some background info: I moved into my dorm to the school a few months ago and I'll use the dormitory internet via lan cable in my room. I'll also put ad hoc internet connection for my phone. Recently, I realized in the "computer > network" I am able to see a list of computers and media devices that is connected to the network "dormitory" via the lan cable. I had problems that these users may be able to see my computer and access my personal files.
In the centre network and sharing, make your network a "Public network" rather than a "home network" or "work network".
This should have the effect to make the following settings in 'advanced sharing settings.
- Discovery - Off network
- Files and printers sharing - Off
- Public folder sharing - Off
If these parameters only to not configure this way, when you changed in 'Public network', to do so.

I can see other computers on a network of peer to peer windows XP but cannot access their shared files and the shared printer. The computers are connected by a switch, fixed IP addresses that are correctly configured and point to a DNS server outside the network. When I try to open the icon for one of the computers, he asked for credentials. I try to type the user name for the computer that is sharing the resource and the password. It is the user account whose computer is loged on and belongs to the Administrators group. for example: user name (Computer1\username) password (password). It does not work. The Windows Firewall is disabled on all computers. It worked well there 2 days. I can't find anything wrong with the network settings. Does anyone have a solution? Thank you.
If the portion of the machine has activated - Simple file sharing (i.e. it is XP Home or it is XP Pro with Simple (default) file sharing) - while all file sharing connections authenticate as user 'guest '. It will not matter what username / password you provide, it will attempt to authenticate as 'guest '. If the guest user has received a password or the guest account is not active, you will experience the symptoms you describe.
If the serving machine running XP Pro and Simple file sharing is disabled, then you should be able to connect by specifying the user as computer\user and the password to connect. To turn off Simple file sharing:

Microsoft IE, I can access temporary Internet files through tools / Internet Options / browsing history, where I can find all the site, the pages and photos that I visited sorted by date or type or other.
This feature I couldn't understand where in Firefox or if it is available or not.
However, Firefox is amazing and I would like if you can provide this optionIn Firefox, it is called the cache, for more details of this kind of situation topic: cache in the address bar and press to enter.
For security reasons, the files in the cache are given random file names, so it is hard to see the content. CacheViewer etension can be useful for you.

Hello. I recently got a new computer and transfer all my files across using Time Machine. Whenever I try to connect to any CC (including CC) program, the program stops immediately and an Apple error happens. I have uninstalled and reinstalled CC twice with no result and removed all Adobe products on my computer and nothing works.
I've seen similar discussions before... transfer does not work, you must install

Is it possible to plug a USB to my new iPad Pro, to transfer PDF files and some Jpeg files from the USB key with an adapter of lightning? If there is NO adapter, how can I get these files on the USB key and my iPad pro? I need these PDF files transferred my I touch pro. Any suggestions? Please
Thank you
Mike Tingey
The iPad does not support USB keys. There are some wireless flash drives that can be used, but not the classical records. I suggest you transfer files to a computer and their synchronization then back to the iPad via iTunes.

You can access your itunes library on the apple tv?
You can access your itunes library on the apple tv? If so, what generation?
Second generation and later the Apple TV can access iTunes libraries that exist on a computer on the same network, they are through home sharing.
Use home sharing to share content with other devices - Apple Support iTunes
However, this is not related to music from Apple.
If you want to access music from Apple's music subscription service, you need a 4th generation Apple Tv.

Can't see 7 files in the Explorer of Windows 7 slate
I just got this and try to understand. I see lots of files in file HP Manager but when I plug the Tablet inot my PC I see only 2... DCIM and photos, and has nothing under them (except a picture I took) as well as a file that I created. When I try to copy something the PC in the folder I created I get a message: "cannot collapsed copy device not responding or has been disconnected" but I can copy a PDF file of the tablet to the PC. I access to the internal memory as I don't have a microSD yet (if that makes a difference).
I plugged it as PTP, because if I connect like PSG, Windows Explorer is not recognize and see the tablet.
For any help or suggestion would be appreciated.
Just FYI I managed to connect to:
(a) implementation Option ON developers
(b) USB debugging WE
Then I could see the internal memory and the SD card as external storage on my PC.
Given that the Tablet connects to three other computers as it normally should, I came to the conclusion that the problem is with the installation of Win 7 on my counter top and possibly some software conflicts.

How can I transfer video files to the library in windows media player for an external hard drive
How can I transfer video files to the library in windows media player for an external hard drive. My os is Windows XP Home Edition and I use wmp 11.
You have to locate the files on your internal hard drive, using the Explorer, then drag and drop them on the hard drive. If you don't know where they are on your hard drive, right click on the video file in the library and choose the location of the opened file.
