  • Can not stop notifications

    Hi people,

    I have the problem after update to El Capitan. I keep getting notifications from different sites (including facebook) that I can not stop no matter what I try. Any thoughts on how to stop them? (I even put the guilty site (www.idevice.ro) on/etc/hosts to stop it with no result). I even tried "Do not disturb" in Notifications, also removing any notification in settings > Notifications and nothing works, what is frustrating - I'm honestly sick banners popping up every 10 minutes. Is there something I am doing wrong? Everyone knows about this problem?

    Thank you

    Claudiu

    Open Safari Preferences--> Notifications.  You see all the websites listed?  If you do, click "Decline" for each of them.

  • Where can I download Media Center for Windows XP?

    Original title: Media center download?

    I know it's possible to use the extension function to be able to watch media on your computer through your xbox to a TV, but where do you find the media center download so that you can start the whole process?

    In addition, I'm not interested by the upgrade to Windows 7, including the download site insists on the fact that I have to do, first of all.

    You need XP Media Center Edition, or you need to update. There is no download
    Add Media Center to XP.

  • Can not stop cryptographic services to rename the Catroot2 folder.

    Hello

    I recently bought Halo 2 for WIndows Vista and tried to run it on my pc, which uses windows 7 Home premium. Since I installed the game, whenever I play it stops, saying that "Games for Windows Live could not... etc" I looked up the solution on a microsoft forum, and he said to rename the folder c:\windows\system32\catroot 2 by stopping the cryptographic service. ""

    Whenever I try to stop the cryptographic service, I get:

    System error 5: access denied

    I tried running the cmd as administrator prompt, and I get the message: "the application pause, continue or stop is not available for this service"

    I can also rename the Catroot2 folder, as he always says: ' this folder could not be renamed because it is already in use... etc ", but I think it's because I have not stopped the cryptographic service".

    What I'm doing wrong and what should I do to fix this?

    If you use Outlook Express, then you get the prompt because it's to check an email account and he failed to connect properly.  He will not stop and prompt you unless you press the Cancel button.  Then go to tools | Options and you can set when OE should check for mail and you can exclude an account from the check under Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties and set the correct credentials there.

    If you do not OE, then we must be more explicit as to what is causing the prompt, what windows are open, that said the title bar of the command prompt?  Its impossible to answer your question otherwise.
