Can not get the xbox 360 "ring of fire" controller to stop flashing on pc windows 7.
I have windows 7 64 bit and I can use the gamepad xbox 360 on it just find but light ring stops flashing. Apparently the lit quadrant is supposed to signal that "port" it is plugged, but it is not only the case.
I had this same problem and it was caused by the installation of bad driver. To solve this here is what you should try:
Plugin your controller
Click Start
Click on Control Panel
(material and audio sub in blue letters), click View devices and printers
MAKE SURE THAT THE UNKNOWN DEVICE IS YOUR FIRST CONTROLLER BY REMOVING THE PLUG OF YOUR COMPUTER AND SEE THAT IT DISAPPEARS FROM THE LIST
(Plug the controller back to continue)
Right click (if there is an unknown device), and then click Properties
Click on the Hardware tab
Click on the properties button
Click the change settings button
Click on set to update driver
Click Browse my computer for driver software
Click on let me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer
Scroll down until you see common Microsoft controllers for the windows class
Double click on it
(On the list in the box open select :) If you are using a wired remote: gamepad xbox 360 for windows version 2.1.0.1349 [8/13/2009]...if you use a controller and a wireless receiver: receiver wireless xbox 360 for windows version 2.1.0.1349 [2009-08-13]])
Click next
(in the new box that opens), click Yes.

How can I get my xbox 360 controller to work with my computer?... I can't even recognize the hardware? Im running Vista 64 bit on a quad core rig any help would be appreciated... Thank you
Hello Ghostdogaln.
How do hang you the controller? You must either use a * wired * controller, or use a wireless controller with receiver game Xbox 360 for Windows.
If you use a wireless with a Play and Charge kit controller, it will not work as long as the USB cord only actually plug into the battery for the controller itself.

I can not get the norton for 36 firefox toolbar. Have run Norton live update repeatedly. He updated of all good and applied a patch. When I go to the firefox menu > Modules > extensions, toolbar Norton is grayed out and says he is not compatible with firefox 36 and is disabled. Help! I need my Norton safe.
Hi Cathie7372, according to Norton the latest version of the toolbar is compatible with firefox 36 is 2014.7.10.26 - your watch as 2014.7.10. 16...
as norton distributes the updates themselves we are probably not able to help much - please contact norton support if you do not receive the last update, even after running liveupdate repeatedly. they should be able to help get their product to date.

I have Firefox 8.0.1 and since the update to it, some sites, I need to go so that Firefox will not accept certificates which is accepted in the previous version. I can not get the permanent exception and must uncheck permanent
You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
- Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: opens showing the file
It is not usually necessary to create an exception for the certificates.
Possible causes are that a server does not send the full (intermediate) certificate chain or self signed certificates. -
I download the latest version of Firefox, but when I go to sign up for google + it tells me that my browser is no longer supported. I tried uninstalling and everything, but can not get the new version appears. Any Suggestions?

I have a new mac air and can not get the bookmark to be deleted in Safari. It has default Favorites - I don't want to see them--when I right click and select Remove - I get this error message.
You are using Safari with bookmarks, history, and imported passwords of Firefox. To change your Favorites, you must first keep or delete data from Firefox.
When I click on "do not keep" nothing happens.
Please, back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select this option:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
A right click or Ctrl-click on the line and select
Services ▹ reveal in Finder (or just to reveal)
of the contextual menu.*, a file must open with a selected item. Quit the application runs. Move selected item to the office, leaving the window open. Restart the application and test. If there is no change, leave again and place the item you back where he was, crushing the that may have been created in its place. If not, remove the item you moved. If possible, restore from a backup prior to the problem.
* If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ go to the folder...
from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

Hi everyone, this is my first post, also help on the post would be appreciated.
I bought ipad air 1 after that 2013 but can not get the pages for free. Numbers and imovie I can. IOS9 running at the moment. I have pages when I connect on icloud on my pc. Can I transfer iPad app, because it is not in the ILO purchased in itunes.
Thanks in advance
Newbie
The only way to install an ipad app is through the app store. PC or Mac software does not run on the ipad. Search in the contacts link at the bottom right of this page. Give apple a call.
I guess is the icon for pages in icloud for storing documents pages. At the same time, apple had a cloud based pages. Not sure what happened to her.

I can not configure my xbox 360 as an Extender, nor can I play music it in WMP 12.
I tried all the methods on the internet you can imagine, even those that I knew would never work, I tried anyway.
Here are some of the things I've tried:
- delete the DRM folder
- disable the firewall on my computer and my router
- restart all services related to windows media player, streaming, extenders, etc.
- It removing the xbox 360 of streaming options and let them settle
- Hook the two up to the router with an ethernet cable (I use my wireless PC)
- I even tried to download zune to see if maybe this method would work in other
It announced no results. I'm not a tech model, I was usually able to solve problems of this kind in the past. I went through the PC and the xbox and other parameters and identified which seems to be the issue. My PC sees the Xbox on network perfectly fine, even if sometimes he appears only in the option of "play to" in WMP. My Xbox, however, does not seem to recognize my PC on the network at all because I ran the PC connection on xbox test several times. This may seem like a firewall problem, but as I said earlier, I tried to disable both firewalls without result
My setup is as follows: my PC is connected wireless (pretty sure this isn't a Word, but it just happened) to my router. My Xbox is connected to my router (ethernet) and my router is connected to a cable modem. My router is a Belkin N150, my computer is a Toshiba Satellite, I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium (100% up-to-date) and a white Xbox 360 (not sure what model it is, or if she same material).
Please see what you can do with this problem, I tried to fix this for months, and I really wish I could listen to my music and videos on my xbox.
Thanks in advance,
JamesI'm so happy I finally thought to it. Just for someone else who has this problem can get it fixed, suggest a routers firmware update. I update my belkins firmware and my xbox my pc immediately. : D

updated to IOS 9.3 and can not get the screen acativation
Updated for IOS 9.3 yesterday and can not get past activation screen
There is a known issue with iOS 9.3 and there is still no specific treatment. The ideas below can help, or they may not. It has been a success among others and no simple way to resolve the situation. You can judge if you want or you can just wait and see if it fixes itself. The problem is most likely on the end of Apple, which means it is not much end users can do until it is resolved.
Some have suggested to go to icloud.com, sign in with your apple ID and remove your device from your cloud account, and then try to activate again.
Others have suggested to simply try to restore the factory via iTunes on your computer settings.
The restoration works for others once they go to iCloud.com and remove their device.
Option 4 is just wait and see when Apple can issue a fix.
You can connect to iCloud here
And here is a step by step on restoring your device if you want to try it.
