DirecTV remote

HP Touchsmart 530 running Win 7 64 bit.

How to disable the functionality of remote control on my pc. When the DirecTV remote is used, the white light at the front of the PC flashes. Sometimes the PC will respond in a strange way.  Example: Installing a program yesterday, someone used the remote to DirecTV and reboted the PC in the middle of the installation. I didn't ' t use the HP remote control and want to disable the feature on the PC.

Thanks for any help.

It seems that the IR receiver is a physical part of the case for this device (4 in the picture).

This indicates that the IR receiver is part of the TV Tuner card.  I don't have this device to check visually that's the case, but it is more than likely the case since it is not listed in Device Manager.  Except turn off the TV completely tuner in Device Manager, which I suppose than the tuner TV is used, there is only one other option that came to mind.

I do not make suggestions like this for aesthetic purposes, but the easiest solution would be to cover the IR receiver with something that is not clear like a piece of insulation tape.

    I have a Dell PC with Vista Home Premium.  Until recently, when the operating system had to be reloaded, I watched decoder of live TV on Media Center for the past two years, using a Directv.  I have tried to re install the TV, but cannot complete the process, as my Directv remotes are not recognized.  The signal is fine (as of the previous steps shows the appropriate image and the signal, but the installation process cannot be performed due to the problem of distance not recognized.

    Hello

    You won't get HDTV without a Digital Cable Ready tuner and a cable card. How about you
    will have need a HDCP compatible graphics card and a TV/monitor taking support this
    as well.
    The kit Hauppage offers is substantially the same as I told you.

    clear QAM availability varies according to the cable company. most begin to encrypt
    everything.

    > The same can be done through Windows Media Center, by clicking the video image by clicking on Zoom. But in MCE when you have a cable box, you will also need an approved Microsoft IR blaster to control the cable box. If you n? not have this part, you will get the IR hardware not found error. The HVR - 950 Q does not come with this, but if you really want to use Media Center, you can buy a kit from our online store here http://store.hauppauge.com/hardware2.asp?product=mce_remote remote"

  • BlackBerry smartphones trying to download the app from Directv

    It is only available on the Directv website. I select "BOLD" as my camera because the torch is not an option and the download comes up as a dot jad file. It won't open with any program on my laptop. How can I get the app from directv on my lamp? It is not that difficult.

    I have the DirecTV app on my flashlight since Oct 2010 (when I switched to digital TV), and I had no probs with it, other than my OS update that I did yesterday, who have somehow wiped out the app Grr...

    I'll have to buy the app again, so I'll post to let you know if it still works on the new OS I, v6.0.0.526. BRB...

    -Update (below)--

    Went to the site via a browser of my torch DirecTV.com (your torch can gain access to the file, not your PC), scroll to the bottom of the page web & clicked on the link 'download app' which is about 1.2 MB in size. This takes you to another web page to choose which device you have.  For the torch, select 'BlackBerry Storm 9500 series (OS 4.7 or higher). This will launch the installation process.

    Since I got the app before, he asked me to check I want to install "Planner" when another already there (this is the same version number as my original install). I went ahead & he did it for you, I could make sure it works.

    Once the installation is complete, it gives you the choice to the installation of 'Ok' or 'Run' I chose "run."  Loads of app (may take a few minutes based on the memory of your torch) to the login screen.  Enter the email that you have registered your DirecTV account, enter the password, and then click 'connection '.  You should be ready to go out, except if you have forgotten your user name, as I! LOL * stem *.

    Oh, almost forgot to mention that some features requires you to be within walking distance (i.e., same room) as the receiver in order to access these features... a bit like the use of your lamp torch as a remote control.  So you want to make sure that you do not use the app to work if it is for a function that needs you to be in the same room. ;-)

    Good luck!

    Question:

    I've got ~ 140 iMacs with 13% to appear in my Apple Remote Desktop (ARD) scans as having correspondence name vs DNS name of the network.

    I suspect this affects refusal to license for our products Adobe CC. How can I clear the fields name DNS ARD again be filled properly?

    After checking with file-> Refresh in ARD Admin and there are still agents machine correct without DNS:

    -Check in the list of the scanners of ARD Admin, if the machines of 18 or more are detected it with the correct DNS name.

    -If Yes, click on each one and update the username: password: and it should update the corresponding entry in all computers.

  • Mac OS stops light remote drives on my network

    I share a DVD player on an old Mac and the hard drive of an another MacBook on my LAN without problem until I upgraded my MacBook to Sierra of MacOS. Now, when I click on "Remote Disc" on my MacBook, he finds nothing. Sharing on my other Macs parameters have not changed. The only change was the upgrade to Sierra at the other end of the action.

    Can someone help me to identify what is the problem?

    Thank you.

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. Sorry to hear that you experience this problem with your MacBook Pro after the recent upgrade.

    You don't say what you mean by not working not properly, however...

    Your Apple TV can become affiliated with another remote control. Hold the remote control close to and pointed on the Apple TV, press and hold the menu and rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see an icon of the chain broken on screen.

  • Scam of Remoting. What they see?

    So I fell for the scam of tech support, but my mom ended the call when they wanted $100. I just followed the instructions that the guy on the phone told me after I called them when I saw a pop up alert. I allowed the guy remotely to MacBook Air from my mother, who has her iCloud connected to it. A day after the remote access, my mother went to his notes on his iPhone and I saw that she had only three left instead of eighteen she had of the scam. I wanted to know if they were able to access his notes that are on her iCloud without knowing me. She has credit card information notes. Also, is it possible for them to continue access to distance even after closing of logmein?

  • Is no longer able to navigate using the Remote app

    I'm suddenly is no longer able to navigate (left, right, up, down) on the Apple TV using the remote app. I also tried with the new application. I'm t able to select the current item and return to the previous menu using button "Menu".

    given that it could also have been a problem with the display of my mother's phone, I scroll on different applications etc and it works fine. So it seems that it is an application (or Apple TV) problem.

    any ideas? I use an Apple TV, I bought 3 years ago.

    Thank you!

    Make sure that the software on your TV is up-to-date. Perform a restart of settings or by unplugging the power cord for 30 seconds. Alternatively, you can perform a reset of settings.

  • 4th gen Apple TV cannot pair with iphone remote app

    Click on 'Add Apple TV' selected on TV, then was invited to enter the 4 numbers matching password shown on television. However the TV shows 4 blocks of gray rectangle instead of 4 digits.

    I also checked that the apple TV and iphone are on the last OS update. What gives? This app is supposed to work with 4th gen now.

    Yes, it works. This looks like some weird glitch. Using the new application ATV 4 remote control (black), or the older version, now called iTunes remotely? Try restarting the ATV using the settings > system > restart. Then try to pair it again.

  • mini presentation remote mac works only sporadically

    Hi all

    I have a Logitech R400 that needs to be able to control the PowerPoint on a Mac mini.

    Yesterday it worked fine.

    Today, he works only sporadically, and I have not changed a thing. It's still the same presentation.

    Sometimes, you can change the slide and sometimes you can't (even when standing very close to the Mac mini).

    This Mac mini specifications are quite anemic (1.4 GHz and 4 GB of memory), but I closed all applications except PowerPoint and have nearly 2 GB of free memory.

    Any thoughts?

    Any help would be most appreciated!

    Mike

    Based on

    http://www.Logitech.com/en-us/product/Wireless-Presenter-R400

    the remote uses a USB wifi dongle and operates on the 2.4 GHz band.

    This band is susceptible to interference and I think that is causing your problem.

    Peripheral USB 3 is a source of interference.

    Try to use the dongle at the end of an extension USB cable

  • Apple TV not showing in remote applications on iOS 10.0.2

    Since the installation of iOS 10.0.2, none of my two Apple TV are appearing in the Remote app on my iPhone 6s or my iPad Air. Troubleshooting, I also downloaded the Apple TV Remote app, but they are not listed when I hit «Add Apple TV»

    I checked they are all on the same network and connected with my Apple ID I also tried to disable the home sharing on the Remote App and turing back on. None of this solves the problem.

    I can see the two Apple TV listed in AirPlay on my iPhone... so I'm puzzled as to why they are not displayed in one of the remote controls.

    My Apple TV is model A1469 with software 7.2.1 version (8011).
