  • Automatic connection does not work after re - install

    Visited bad link in Facebook! Subsequently, forced to re - install Firefox - from scratch! Saved some files profile as Favorites, passwords, but no extension tricks. Re-installed FireFox after removal of ALL titles I could find in Program Files, Program Files (x 86) and Windows 7 Pro profile.

    When visiting a page that requires a login, Firefox correctly fills the username and password. BUT it does not start the connection. In the past, it was essentially a background process and not really visible to me. Now, stop at the page requesting credentials and click on the button "login".

    I have 'THE VIEW', 'NOSCRIPT' and 'ADBLOCK PLUS '. ALL my plugins are in mode 'ask to activate '.
    I enabled extensions: 'ADOBE ACROBAT - create PDF 1.2' and 'Trend Micro NSC FireFox Extension 5.82.0.1056.

    I would definitely get FireFox to work as it did previously. I don't know where watch/tweak!

  • The service "wuauserv" (automatic updates) does not work correctly

    The service 'wuauserv' uses constantly between 88 and 95% of my CPU, slowing down my computer to the point that it is almost unusable, so I've been suspending or disabling the process 'wuauserv' every time I use my computer.

    In addition, Windows Update does not, if "wuauserv" is suspended or not.
    It prevents just check the latest updates and never stops to do that no matter how long wait.

    Immediately after that, Windows Update and the automatic updates service finally started working again. It has been almost two weeks since I fixed it and have not had a problem since.

    I didn't format the hard drive and do a clean install of Windows XP for this problem - I have never done this because it does not seem necessary.

Sometimes visible through the open window, App - but sometimes also without this, but you recognize because the keyboard no longer works. This can happen when you type a message.

    1 Java installed (Version 6 Update 31)
    2. Yes.
    3 IE7
    4 Google
    No. 5 a & b.
    6 NO.
    7. YES... In Add/Remove Programs, I have the following: Windows live essentials, Windows live sign-in assistant [and] live Windows Update tool.

    #7 ah, explains a little bit & offers at least a glimmer of hope.

    Background: Since one or more Windows Live Essentials (for example, Windows Live Messenger;) Windows Live Mail) were already installed IE8 is offered at your computer, auto update installed the MSN/Bing-optimized version of IE8 (although it was not called that at the time). Then your more later misguided (IMHO) use of registry cleaners (for example, CCleaner) removed his token of your User-Agent string - with at least another token (i.e., .NET Framework version 1.x).

    Pass, if this peut be fixed, this should fix:

    [You can print these instructions for reference offline.  [If a procedure says to restart, restart!]

    ACTIONS:

    1 right-click on the link, select SAVE TARGET as... and Save the installer for the 'vanilla' of IE8 for WinXP for your dekstop version - do not RUN it! -online http://download.microsoft.com/download/C/C/0/CC0BD555-33DD-411E-936B-73AC6F95AE11/IE8-WindowsXP-x86-ENU.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3 uninstall Windows Internet Explorer 8 via Add/Remove Programs & reboot twice.  [Trust me]

    Note: Ignore any warnings "such and such might not work if...". "- everything will be fine.

    4. immediately after the second time restarts, double-click the file that you saved in #1 above to install the 'vanilla' of IE8 version; Follow all instructions & restart twice again.

    Note: Be extremely patient - the whole process could take 10 to 15 minutes or more, even without the second restart. And did not even try to open / use IE8 until after the second restart.

    5. then immediately re-open IE8 (only!) at http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com . Select CUSTOM and scan | Install Security updates offered (e.g., KB2675157); Follow all the instructions.

    -Online if an update root certificates (KB931125) is listed under the category of updates software optional again, install it to enjoy greater security of IE8.

    TIP: As before, do NOT install any other updates software optional or any updated material in option .

    6. test your new version of the feature of IE8 & see if you can select Google as search engine by default now (if it is not already the default).  If you can not, I have another trick or two up my sleeve so hang in there!

    7. in response to this post with a status report. Good luck!

    FOR THE BONUS EXTRA POINTS QUESTION! => Assuming that Windows Live Messenger or Mail is (still) installed, click HELP. [ALT + H + A] & tell me what version it is (for example, v14.0.8117.0416).

  • Video of unlocking does not work


    Hello

    I wanted to see if the release could improve the look of my video way. After some failures to incorporate it in to my existing fla, I decided to start over and follow the example of the manual.
    Here's the part I'm talking about:

    The example following video1.flv in the object plays video my_video and allows the user to change the behavior of the filter release on video1.flv. Add a video object named my_video and an instance of the ComboBox named deblocking_cb in your file and then add the following to your FLA file ActionScript code or YOU.

    var deblocking_cb:mx.controls.ComboBox;
    var my_video:Video; my_video is a Video object on the stage
    var my_nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
    my_nc. Connect (null);
    var my_ns:NetStream = new NetStream (my_nc);
    my_video.attachVideo (my_ns);
    my_ns. Play (" video1.flv");

    deblocking_cb. AddItem ({data: 0, label: 'Auto'});
    deblocking_cb. AddItem ({data: 1, label: 'No'});
    deblocking_cb. AddItem ({data: 2, label: 'Yes'});

    var cbListener:Object = new Object();
    cbListener.change = {function (evt,:Object)}
    my_video.deblocking = evt.target.selectedItem.data;
    };
    deblocking_cb.addEventListener ("change", cbListener);


    Use the ComboBox control instance to change the behavior of filter release on video1.flv.



    I added a ComboBox and a FLVPlayback component on the stage and named as described.
    The only things I changed ACEs are the parts in bold:
    I changed the file name for http://www.multimediamatters.nl/avproductie/commercials/NuKanHetNog.flv
    I changed the data addItem third at 5, because I'm using an On2 video.

    When I saw the .fla I hear the audio, but the video does not appear to be loaded in the FLAPlayback instance. It simply maintains buffer, and when I press play it says that it cannot connect to the server.

    It I'm probably missing something very obvious here, but can someone point me in the right direction please?
    Thanks in advance!

    Yours,
    Andra

    Just saw your message. You must use a video object, not the component FLVPlayback.

    Right-click in your library and select new video.
    make sure that his 'actionscript-controlled. "
    Once that its in the library to slide towards the stage and name it my_video.

    FYI, I got your flv works without problems.
