  • Can not access files or a printer on Windows 7 Home Premium system

    I have 3 (2 Windows Vista and Windows XP) computers networked through a router.  I have all three computers put in place for sharing files and printers.  I can 'ping', two of the computers to the router and get a satisfactory answer.  My new Windows 7 Home Premium system expires when you ping the router.  It seems that a port entering the Windows 7 Home Premium system blocks all incoming traffic.  Is there a 'port' that I have to open until my other computers can access the Windows 7 Home Premium system?

    Given that I had no problem it is networking of my Win7 with OS X, Linux, XP and Vista boxes since the first beta and all the way through for Win7 RTM, nor had no Win7 with LANs ien network problems, something is set incorrectly on your computers. Since there is no way I can tell what the problem is without being on the spot, my only suggestion is that you have a competent local professional, come and straighten things. Do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

    I have a Sony Cyber-shot camera and used to download all my pictures and videos on my previous PC using Picasa, but I do not have this program on my Toshiba.

    Can someone tell me why this is and how I can access these files and read them?
    I'll be very grateful.

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    Maybe you should try another video player since not all video formats are supported by Toshiba video player.

    Have you tested the VLC Player?
    Recommend to do this... the VLC Player is a freeware tool

    I also recommend to check the s manual camcorder to get some info on the format of file, then you could search for tools that would manage the file format of camcorders.

    Hello

    Since when does the problem appear? This is the first time?

    I don't know, but if you didn t already reinstalled the drivers display, I would say it since sometimes the VGA driver dislikes the desires of the users.
    Please, go to the driver Toshiba download site (still ;)) and download the display driver.) Install and set only the screen inside.

    If it doesn´t work back and give feedback so that we can discuss more about your problem.

    Hi Gilad,

    It seems more an audio problem for me.

    Please select all the clips on the timeline, right-click and select 'Remove' to separate the audio from the videos.

    Once done select Audio only in the timeline and right click to select "Render and replace. Once done, save and close the project.

    Try reading to check if it works.

    You can also try to export an XML file i.e tab of project selection.

    Go to file > export > Final Cut Pro XML

    After creating a new project > import the XML file, and then open the sequence to check.

    How can I play multiple instances of video (no problem reading of 12 movies at the same time, at the opening of the 13th film the problem only starts), the classic use of media player in windows XP? I was able to do all the time! It has to do with the codec?

    I get the same problem with VLC all that needs to be checked on preferences is checked in the two VLC & MPC!

    Hello

    Multiple instances of Media Player is not supported in version 7 and greater.

    · What version of Windows Media Player you have installed?

    · Are instances that you are referring to the bodies shipped?

    · You use any third-party software to run multiple instances?

  • Firefox can not play Netflix, but can chrome.

    I have Firefox installed 13.0.1 (also tried the beta version, 14 or what) and I can't play movies on Netflix. Silverlight is up to date, everything is up-to-date, but it does not work. It goes to this page that says:

    "Finish the required system configuration".

    To watch instantly, yougot to a computer that meets the following minimum requirements:

       Windows
           Windows XP with Service Pack 2, Vista or Windows 7
           Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher; or Firefox 3 or higher; or Chrome 7 or higher
           1.2 GHz processor
           512 MB RAM
       Mac
           An Intel-based Mac with OS 10.4.11 or later
           Safari 3 or higher; or Firefox 3 or higher; or Chrome 10 or higher
           1 GB RAM
       Chrome OS
           A Google Chromebook with Chrome OS 13 or higher"
    

    But if I open and try it in Google Chrome, it's fine. I'm on Windows 8 Preview Release, and it is a 64-bit system. Firefox is 32 bit, of course. I don't know what else I could try to get Netflix to work in Firefox. Chrome is very good, but Firefox is my default browser, and I wish I didn't have to spend every time just for Netflix.

    Until taken netflix supported by Windows 8, the solution is lie. I must say that we are still using Windows 7 to netflix.

    If you are not comfortable with the technical stuff, an easy way is to install this addon:

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/addon/masking-agent/?src=search

    And in the field, he provides his screen option type in "Windows NT 6.1", less citations. This corresponds to Windows 7.

    If you do not feel as still having an other addon installed, you can simply add the information directly in firefox.

    Open a new tab and type in about: config. You will probably get a warning to about playing with the settings.

    Once you right click and select new > string. For the name of the preference you want to type in "general.useragent.override", less citations.

    So you want to type the value, which is the info that firefox tends more to the netflix server to be identified, mine is (at least this is what I'm saying netflix):

    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0.1

    It breaks down as follows:

    Mozilla is basic info, 5.0 is the version of Mozilla.

    Windows NT 6.1 is your version of windows (Windows NT 6.1 is Windows 7).

    RV:13.0 is the version of the rendering engine Gecko used.

    Gecko is the name of the layout engine.

    The string of numbers after the date of construction.

    Firefox is the name of the browser.

    Finally, 13.0.1 is the version of the browser.

  • Once I downloaded the new version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262, I can not play games with my friends on Yahoo Messenger.

    It could be a coincidence, but when I upgraded to the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.262 I can not play games with my friends on Yahoo Messenger. I know that when I've updated for a reason that I had to try 3 times before it took. It shows that it is updated. I wonder if I have to uninstall and reinstall. Also, I never use Internet Explorer 8 but when I went there to check I found a plug check link there and it showed over there that Adobe Flash Player necessary update but it was an older version and not a Foxfire had updated me too. Now I'm really confused if it causes a problem. I've never had to control Internet Explorer for plug-ins before. Have always just updated to Foxfire since that's what I use. Adobe Flash Player seems to play videos OK not really sure if this is the issue or not. My Java plug-ins have been very well and have been updated some time there, so I know it's not that. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

    Hey again,
    After hours of reading and checking to make sure I had good things enabled, I did, I gave up and uninstalled the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, they gave me and re-installed and later I had my friend get on Messenger and we tried games and it worked this time.
    For some strange reason when I updated it took me 3 tries before it took. So even if he told me that it has been installed, apparently it wasn't really. Just goes to show you that you can not trust what you see.
    What has really scratching my head was I went to Internet Explorer 8, which I never use more and discovered you can now get Mozilla plug in slip out there and when I did showed that same Adobe Flash Player is outdated but it was to a different version. Not knowing if it would help, I installed a new too and he said it was his understanding that it does not. So I guess you can have 1 version installed on the computer 1 despite 2 browsers different different versions. It becomes too complicated for me. Laughing out loud!
    I work with computers all the time at work but not the technical stuff. If it's something simple, I can guess through it to help someone but it's my first personal computer for me and is a former first, so I got experience using different types. We use the desk at work as well. Personally, I like computers laptops for various reasons. And the mention of people many browsers go way over my head.
    Please answer this question though and you answer back.

  • Satellite A300D - is overheating and can not play games

    Hello
    I'm quite desperate. My Satellite A300D is overheating. I can not play new games. Temperature hit 94 degrees and laptop is restarted. I cleaned it several times, very precisely and nothing. So I decided to send it to the official service of Toshiba. After that, the phone is still the same.

    My only hope is buy cooling grease and cooling stock-base. But before that ideas, advice?

    Thanks for everything...

    Hello

    I can understand you mate, but have you contacted Toshiba service center again? You should speak with the technicians and explain the situation. I put t know what they did, do you know that?

    Cleaning of the laptop is still a good idea but if it doesn't work maybe the thermal compound must be renewed. So ask a technician for help laptop.

    By the way: what OS are you using? You can use the same problem with the factory settings and preinstalled display driver?
