• Satellite L750 suddenly began to mute

  Hello

  my laptop suddenly started to turn off the sound on its own for several days I tried everything to fix on google but no luck,

  the sound cuts suddenly to chance and I have to sign out and then sign back in to do work so any help please?

  > I've tried everything to fix on google but no luck.

  Hmm. I'm not very well what you have tried to solve this problem exactly but all the laptop must be first test using the factory reset Toshiba m.
  Why?
  It's simple: some 3rd party software, updates or changes to the settings that were made in the past, could cause sound problems.

  I guess this question is a distributed software because after a reboot of the system, the sound has appeared again.

  Of course, you can also try solutions workaround common as new driver of installation or you could clean the system using the freeware software like CCleaner, but for me at the moment, the Toshiba recovery procedure looks like the best solution.

  By the way: have you checked if there is a difference of use of headphones?

• Development of applications that run without installed DAQmx

  We want to develop the executables that include optional calls to connected DAQmx hardware.  It will be used for purposes of internal development and allocation of customers. We would like to include optional features such as temperature logging using the thermocouple NI 9211/USB-9162 entry-level camera.  If a customer wants to use our application with record temperature, they can buy the necessary materials of NEITHER and install DAQmx drivers.

  The problem we are trying to solve is how to develop applications that work also for the case when a client does not want to buy the material and does not install the DAQmx drivers.  Ideally, we can include a button 'disable temperature logging' on relevant applications, which prevents all calls to the DAQmx drivers at run time.  For example by including calls in a business controlled by this button structure.

  The problem we seem to have is that executables resulting always require customers to install the DAQmx drivers, even if they don't need them.  It doesn't seem to be a way to make the optional installation, since the source screw included calls to DAQmx drivers, even if they will not be used by the customer.

  Clearly, a solution is to develop two families of screws and the applications, which include DAQmx calls and one who is not.  However, which will result in a horrible collection of code that will require the maintenance and parallel development.

  An alternative is to ask all customers to install DAQmx drivers.  Unfortunately, the size and complexity of downloads that results will be a significant deterrant.  It's already a shame that our distributed software is a 50 MB download, when the size of the code in C++ or VB would be less than a tenth of that.  Another factor of increase of 10 download is prohibitive.

  We must find a solution more clean.  All ideas, plase?

  We are currently with LabVIEW 8.5.1 and DAQmx 8.9.

  You can use the conditional structure conditional symbols and disable disable in the project to do. You can, for example, have a symbol called "HAVEDAQMX" and, say, use a 1 or 0 (or anything you want) to indicate that you want to run the project with or without DAQmx. In VI using the conditional turn off the structure. For HAVEDAQMX = 0 case put in the code to run without DAQmx. For HAVEDAQMX = 1 case put in the DAQmx code. When you build the application, if any will get used, and the other will be thrown.

  Attached is a simple project that does this. You can view the LabVIEW help for more information about the conditional structure disable.

• Deployment of Adobe Acrobat updates without an Internet connection

  We have deployed Adobe Acrobat for all PC on our field.  We want to add updates and security patches when they are available, but our PC cannot connect to get updates automatically. What is the best way to achieve this?  Is there a place we can download updates and deploy to our client to the PC (via group policy would be ideal)

  Thank you

  Garry

  I have the pleasure, Garry. Since you are already set up to distribute software via Group Policy, I recommend you do the same with Adobe patches. No need to reinvent the wheel, or add another product to your configuration in my humble OPINION. We use SMS and shell scripts to distribute software and patches where I am currently, so I'm not familiar with the use of group policy to distribute software, but Adobe patches (.msp) are executable via Windows MSI, so it should work for your configuration.

• Do I have to make another request to distribute the Adobe software? *

  I create PDFs to fill, I have distributed to our members, who find them on their own computers, which can be PC or Mac with any level of the operating system and installed software. Last year I asked the permission to do, and on 20 July 2015, I received the email from Adobe permission. He said:

  HOUSING STARTS

  Thank you for the presentation of a request to distribute the Adobe® software. Your application has been approved and you can now distribute the Adobe® software listed below, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Adobe Reader and the Runtime Software Distribution License Agreement.

  What is an annual license? I now need to submit another application?

  I just noticed that email from Adobe last year told me I should do another request after a year.

  My apologies for wasting people time. I was getting careless because I was irritated that I couldn't find a way to get directly in touch with Adobe, and I was getting fed up with Adobe generally because of the push towards cloud products and that the product seems to be flaky. The flat screen fillable PDF files seems to have stopped working. I have converted to fillable PDF interactive on-screen, but they are not to be impeccable. Some of our members are unable to get to work or the other.

• Why AE distributes incorrect DNS

  I have the latest Airport Extreme the latest version of the software running.  My AE is set to do the routing for my local network.  Then I have a modem/DSL router that is configured in Bridge mode that goes for my AE.  When devices connect to my network via DHCP, EI gave them an address.  But the DNS number, he gives them is the address of route it (192.168.2.1).  Thus, when devices try to access the internet, they can get.  In the configuration of EI, I have two DNS numbers provided by my ISP.  It seems that it should provide these numbers for connected devices.  A connection device, I can go and manually change the DNS to one of the two figures provided by my ISP and this device can then access the internet very well.  So, how can I get EI to distribute DNS suitable for devices to connect to my local network.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  If your LAN access point is really in bridge mode, then the DHCP service that is provided by the ISP should provide appropriate directly to your AirPort Extreme base station 802.11ac IP addresses. Of course, I guess that the extreme is in its default configuration, which is a DHCP client.

  AirPort Utility, select the extreme. What are the values for: IP address and LAN IP address in the pop-up window? Note: Do not actually send the IP addresses, it is enough to note. The IP address must NOT start with 10, 172 or 192. The LAN IP address must be: 10.0.1.1. Are these two true in your case?

  You're better off with almost nothing accept ZA and Kaspersky, both are absolutely the worst security editors to keep in touch with updates of Firefox this last year: everyone has had at least one add-on Firefox being several weeks or months of delay on the schedule of release of Firefox. It's almost as if they don't know week 18 of Firefox development process and they are waiting until their Firefox users complain of their shit doesn't work don't not with a version new version of Firefox, before even to think to do their updates. IMO, the smartest thing is to test the version of channel every night (first alpha stage 6 weeks) for compatibility issues once a week to see what problems may exist with their software, and once the new version hits the channel Aurora (2nd week alpha stage 6) begin to develop a plan calendar for what they should be fixed and begin to repair their stuff, while intensifying to test a little. Once the new version Beta 6 weeks channel hits they should be completed their corrections and expand their tests to include the combination of the Add - most popular add-ons used by Firefox users so that they can see all problem users could hit and fix what needs to be fixed before the release of the new version of Firefox.

  Another thing these security vendors could do is some clients do their beta testing to find flaws and weak spots in their substance, as organizations open source like Mozilla done with Firefox. While I'm not a professional software, I have 3 different versions installed Nightly that I 'test' a little almost every day for simple things and the Aurora version, as well as the beta version. The last 6 or 7 years old, I found 3 or 4 pretty serious flaws that I have filed bug reports, of which one resulted in developers providing a warning much sterner on the risk of data loss and the other Bug reports helped developers by making them aware of a potential problem early enough in development that is was difficult to avoid the issue I pointed out to them with some minor coding changes.

  Free or paid version, if these security companies will create and distribute a Firefox Add-on is the right thing to do to keep to date with Firefox, or they should just interrupt the add-on and we stop around jerks with their irresponsibility and their nonchalant attitude towards Firefox. Honestly, I miss the "good old days" when these security companies ignored Firefox and only support Internet Explorer.

  I use Avira Personal Free - http://www.free-av.com/ - who does not feel the need to develop Add-ons for Firefox which really don't add anything to Firefox and only provide a 'bells and whistles' version of something that is already integrated into Firefox. Good solid anti-virus protection that is updated twice a day.

• TOSHIBA burning software - erase disc

  Hi all.
  I have a problem with TOSHIBA software (one, which distributes with toshiba hardware) burning. I used it today to burn data on CD (there was some data on it, but the disc was still open). So I insterted the disc, the program open, select files to burn and press OK. Software asked me if I want to delete the data that was on the CD before burning. CD was just aren't RW, so I pressed ok. I thought that it is not possible to erase recordable disks. After burning, I checked the data, and I saw him, the data that was there before burning were really deleted, all that remained were only new data! I tried to check if they may not hiden or like that, but they were really far. Data were very important, so I would like to ask you, how is it that they drive disspared R and is it possible to retrieve the?

  Thank you much for the help. Pois0n.

  Hi poison.

  It's very strange. I've never heard anything like that. Can you please tell me what that burning software you use?

  Mac users often ask if they should install "anti-virus" (AV) or software "anti-malware". The answer is 'no', but it can give the false impression that there is no threat of what is loosely called 'virus '. There is a threat.

  1. it is a comment on what you should - and should not-do to protect you from malicious software ("malware") that runs on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions.

  It does not apply to the software, such as keyloggers, which can be installed deliberately by an intruder who has convenient access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. This threat is in a different category, and there is no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to and does not, to defend against these attacks.

  The comment is long because the issue is complex. The essential points are in articles 5 and 11.

  OS X implements now three levels of integrated protection specifically against malware, not to mention the protections of runtime such as quarantine the file, execute disable, sandbox, protecting the integrity of system, System Library randomization and randomized address space layout , which can also prevent other kinds of exploits.

  2. all versions of Mac OS X 10.6.7 were able to detect the malware Mac known in downloaded files and block non-secure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Apple calls internally it "XProtect."

  The malware used by XProtect recognition database is automatically updated. However, you should not count on it, because the attackers are still at least a day before the defenders.

  The following restrictions apply to XProtect:

  ☞ circumvented by some third-party network software, such as the BitTorrent clients and Java applets.

  ☞ It applies only to software downloaded on the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not verified.

  As new versions of Mac OS X are available, it is not clear whether Apple will continue indefinitely maintain the older versions such as 10.6 XProtect database. Versions of obsolete systems security may eventually be affected. Updates to security for the code of obsolete systems will be stop being released at any given time, and which can leave them open to other types of attack in addition to malware.

  3. starting with the OS X 10.7.5, there was a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and installation packages downloaded from the network will be run only if they are digitally signed by a developer to a certificate issued by Apple. Certified software in this way has not been checked for safety by Apple, unless it comes to the App Store, but you can be reasonably sure that it has not been changed by someone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so it could be held legally responsible if it distributes malicious software. Which may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below).

  Access controller does not depend on a database of known malware. He has, however, the same limitations as XProtect and in addition the following:

  ☞ It can easily be turned off or overridden by the user.

  ☞ A malware attacker could find a way around it, or could take control of a certificate of signing of code under false pretenses or could simply ignore the consequences of the distribution of malware Tryggvason.

  ☞ Developer App store could find a way around the Apple control, or the control may fail due to human error.

  Apple took too long to revoke some known attackers codesigning certificates, thus diluting the value of the keeper and the program developer ID. These variances do not involve the App Store products, however.

  For the reasons given, App Store, and, to a lesser extent - other applications recognized by signed Gatekeeper, are safer than others, but they cannot be considered to be absolutely sure. "Sand" applications could make to access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think that before granting access. Security sandbox is based on user input. Never click through any application for leave without thinking.

  4. by starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background. He checks and removes, malware that corresponds to a database of recognition held by Apple. To ensure that MRT will be executed when the database is updated, the App Store tab in system preferences and check the box marked

  Install the system data files and security updates

  If it is not already done.

  As XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against strangers. It alerts you if it detects malware, but otherwise, it has no user interface.

  5. the built-in Mac OS x security features reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not and will never be complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not a behavior machine, and none only of technological solution will solve. Software protect you from trust only will make you more vulnerable.

  The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. Except perhaps feats of Java, all the known malware, circulating on the Internet wearing reached a completely setting installation to update to OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojans", which may have no effect if the victim is deceived in their execution. The threat thus amounts to a battle of wits between you and cybercriminals. If you are better informed, they think you are, you win. In effect, it means that you always stay in the shelter of practical computing. How do you know when you leave the safe harbor? Here are a few signs warning of danger.

  Software from a reliable source

  ☞ Software with a brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, does not come directly from the Web site. Don't be fooled an alert of any website for updating Flash, or your browser, or other software. A real alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. In this case, follow the instructions on the support page. Furthermore, assume that the alert is false and that someone is trying to rip you off to install malicious software. If you see these alerts on more than one Web site, ask for instructions.

  ☞ Software any is distributed via BitTorrent or Usenet, or on a Web site that distributes pirated music and movies.

  ☞ Rogue sites Web such as CNET Download MacUpdate, Soft32, Softonic and SourceForge distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "install".

  ☞ The software is advertised through spam or intrusive web ads. Any announcement, on any site, which includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.

  Software that is clearly illegal or doing something illegal

  Commercial software ☞ high-end such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."

  ☞ An application helps you violates copyright law, for example to circumvent the copy protection on a commercial software, or streamed media recording to be reused without permission. All the 'YouTube downloaders' are in this category, but not all are necessarily malicious.

  Conditional or unsolicited offer from strangers

  ☞ A phone calling or a web page you indicates that you have a "virus" and offers to remove. (Some reputable sites warned visitors who have been infected with the malware "DNSChanger" legitimately. The exception to this rule applies.)

  ☞ A web site offers a free content like music or video, but for use, you must install a "codec", 'plug-in', 'player' 'Downloader', 'extractor', or 'certificate' which comes from the same site, or a stranger.

  ☞ You win a prize in a competition that you are never entered.

  ☞ someone on a forum like this is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of your choice.

  ☞ a 'FREE WI - FI!' network presents itself in a public place like an airport, but is not provided by management.

  ☞ Online everything that you expect to pay is 'free '.

  Unexpected events

  ☞ a file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, without any further action on your part. delete any file without opening it.

  ☞ You open what you think, it is a document and you receive an alert that it is "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you must always remove any download that is not what you expected it to be.

  ☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as permission to access your contacts, your location or the Internet without obvious reason.

  ☞ Software is attached to the email you na not ask, even if it is (or seems to come) by a person of trust.

  I do not leave the safe harbour that once will necessarily lead to disasters, but make a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malicious software attacks. None of the above scenarios must, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.

  The emergence of data "ransomware" for Mac was part of the defense against the attacks of backup all data. Since an infected machine could destroy its own backups, at least a backup unit must always be in offline mode. For example, you could turn your backup drives, keeping one with you or another site. This strategy also protects against a physical threat such as a fire or theft.

  6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it is not related, despite the similarity of names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform to run complex applications in a web page. That was always a bad idea, and Java developers have proved unable to apply it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been a type virus Windows affecting OS X. simply load a page with Java malicious content could be harmful.

  Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is outdated and largely disappeared. Only a few outdated sites still use it. Try to accelerate the process of extinction by avoiding these sites, if you have a choice. Forget to play games or other uses not Java essentials.

  Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later versions. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and Oracle (the developer of Java). Do not use one unless you need it. Most of the people don't. If Java is installed, turn it off- not the JavaScript in your browser.

  Whatever the version, experience has shown that Java on the Web is not reliable. If you must use a Java applet for a job on a specific site, Enable Java only for the site in Safari. Never activate Java for a public Web site that carries the third-party advertising. Use only on websites that are well known, protected by login and secure without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you will see a padlock icon in the address bar when you visit a secure site.

  7. another perennial weak point is Adobe Flash Player. Like Java, Flash is declining well deserved, but content Flash is still much more widespread than the contents of Java on the Web. If you choose to install the Flash plugin, you can reduce your exposure to Flash by checking the box marked

  Stop the plug-ins to save energy

  in the Advanced tab of the preferences of Safari window, if not already done. Consider also installing an extension Safari as "ClickToFlash" or "ClickToPlugin." They will prevent the Flash content automatically load and are initially not Flash video is substituted for Flash on YouTube and perhaps a few other sites. I tested the extensions and found them safe, but you should always do your own research before you decide whether to trust any third party software.

  8. remain within the sphere of security, and you will be as safe from malware you can be practically. The rest of this comment is what you must do to protect you.

  Although it may seem counterintuitive, you should never install any AV or products 'Internet security' for Mac if you have a choice, because they are all worse than useless. If you are required by a (wrong) institutional policy to install some kind of AV, choose one of the free apps in the Mac App Store, nothing else.

  Why you should not use products AV?

  ☞ To recognize malware, software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least one day to day. This technique is a proven failure, as a major supplier of AV software has admitted. Most of the attacks are "zero-day" - that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry comes to realize that the traditional AV software is worthless.

  ☞ design is based generally on the nonexistent threat that malware can be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; He is not of the blue leaves. To meet this threat does not exist, a commercial AV software changes or low level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a frequent cause of instability, bugs, poor performance, and duplicates.

  ☞ changing the operating system, the software can also create weaknessesthat could be exploited by malicious attackers.

  ☞ especially, a false sense of security is dangerous. This fact relates to all AV software it will never be any changes elsewhere.

  Using the software AV defines you for double exploitation: by hackers, malicious software, that the software does not protect you and the actual AV industry. The latter will often try to hang with a product free of appeal , so it can charge you for "improvements" later.

  9. a free AV product from the Mac App Store is safe as long as you don't let it delete or move files. Ignore all the warnings that it can give you on "heuristic" or "phishing." These warnings, if they are not simply false positives, see the text of e-mail messages or updates cached web pages, not malware. Also ignore any attempt to upsell you to a paid version of the product.

  An AV application is not necessary and may not be invoked for protection against malware for OS X. It is useful, or even not at all, only to detect malware Windows and even for this use it is not really effective, because the new Windows malware makes its appearance much faster than OS X malware.

  Windows malware cannot hurt you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows). Just do not pass to someone else. A malicious link in the e-mail is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. A concrete example:

       London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe

  You don't need software to tell you it's a horse Trojan for Windows. Software may be able to tell what trojan is, but who cares? In practice, there is no reason to use a recognition software, unless an organizational strategy requires. Malware Windows is so widespread that you must assume that it is in each attachment until proof to the contrary.

  A free AV product on the App Store can serve a purpose if it fulfills a misinformed network administrator that requires to have some sort of application AV. An App Store product will not change the operating system; in fact, it does nothing, unless you run it.

  If you are just curious to know if a file is recognized as malware by the AV engines, you can download it from the "VirusTotal" site, where it will be tested against most of them. A negative result is evidence of what whether, for the reasons given above. I do not recommend doing this with a file that may contain private information.

  10. There seems to be a common belief that the firewall Application acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents operation of malware. He does not. It blocks incoming connections to some network services you are using, such as file sharing. It is disabled by default, and you should leave it like that if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate only when you are on an untrusted network, for example a public Wi - Fi hotspot, where you do not want to provide services. Disable services that you don't use in the sharing preferences window. All are disabled by default.

  11. as a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected whenever you install the software, read emails, or visit a web page. But nor can you assume that you will always be free from exploitation, no matter what you do. Internet browsing, it's like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous that you choose to do so. The greatest harm done by software AV is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They can then feel sufficiently safe to take risks, which the software does not protect them. Nothing can reduce the need for safe computing practices.

By clicking YES or NOT gives the same result - it is stuck in a loop. The pop - ups keep occurring even when FF or IE are not running. VERY irritating!

  Temporary solution:
  (1) I've disabled PS - QL (killed process)
  (2) I contacted UPEK, software is. They replied:
  "We have released new version of Protector Suite software. The latest version is 5.6, which supports Windows Vista, IE7, FF2 and much more. Please check the download pages for Toshiba and upgrade to a newer version. »
  (3) I went to the site above and Toshiba does NOT HAVE does the update available! UPEK replied as follows:
  "I can see our internal system, that Toshiba has already downloaded the latest version. Now it's finally upward to Toshiba, if and when he died. I don't know the reasons why it is not available for public download, this is the final version (not beta). It is a customized version and Toshiba only can distribute. Please contact Toshiba support.

  Toshiba updates did not worth to free them!

  And where is the support from Toshiba? There is no email - only this self-help forum.

  Hi Roger

  Sorry, but I think you're a little frustrated and you obviously don t understand what real problem there is. Do not be frustrated. All, to an explanation or a solution even.

  First of all if you need assistance, you can call Toshiba hotline in your country and try to learn more about your problem. For each European country, Toshiba has a web page where you can find information on phone numbers and info how to contact Toshiba. Unfortunately, it is not the same for each country and if you go to http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com the site of the left hand you will find the hotline number. Call them and explain what you want to know. I hope that you will be able to contact the right person.

  Back to the question of the utility! It is logical that the producer of software is most often one step as a producer for laptop and before the tool is provided for download, it must be tested. It seems that the software producer has new version that is created for Windows Vista, IE7 and FF2.0. As you know that Windows Vista is not officially released and thereby there is no new version of Vista available on the Toshiba download page. I'm 100% sure after Vista start new version will be available for download. You will see that the new laptop Vista pre-installed will have this new version.

  As far as I know official Vista launch term is end of January.

  By the way: it will be interesting to know what model of laptop and preinstalled OS you are using.
