    Original title: cannot get audio from video .3g2 (Windows 7)

    I have a number of videos that were recorded on a Motorola phone to format .3g2, when I played against them in windows XP Pro using what was the most recent media player, they played very well and the audio was present.

    I've since upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate and have found that videos will play with media player sound is not output.

  • Since Apple ridiculously decided to abandon the center of games tab of my friends in the game does not load automatically and I have to go to GC and click the circle of friends so he could load, MORE I wonder constantly if I want to use my game stored loc

    Since Apple decided to abandon the center of games tab of my friends in the game does not load automatically and I have to go to GC icon and tap the circle of friends so he could load several times, MORE we continue to request if I want to use my game stored locally or my stored GC game. I refuse to install iOS 10, because it means of course I won't be able to manually load the tab my friends and my losing my game completely. How can I fix it? Remove the Center game is the worst thing that Apple could have done, in my humble OPINION.

    You will not lose your game entirely. I have several games of game Center, and they work fine. And I understand the developer of a game that this game center continues to store the backup of your game.

    It's just that now friending is handled via the interface of the game. The only options that you have in iOS10 is to go to the settings panel in / log out of game center or remove all friends. And none of the games I play has updated so I can see how their friending works with iOS10.

    Beyond providing the basic interface, Apple seems to have turned all aspects of the social game on the games themselves.

    If you want to make Apple know how you feel, you can leave your comments via this form

  • Highlight in the game does not not after update 10.2.1

    Just updated to 10.2.1. Never had a problem with spirals in game before now.

    However scroll in the game does not simply work in the main area. Sometimes it scrolls, but it is buggy, biased and bouncing around. Very weird. Other times, than it does not simply scroll. It works very well in the sandbox of the editor.

    I have the blue scroll in the checked play icon. I tried with all three settings (right click on icon) and their many variations, but it still does not work properly.

    Any thoughts?

  • I have a red circle with a line through it on my need for speed Shift II in my Start menu, the game does not open

    Problem: I have a red circle with a line through it m need for Speed Shift II in my Start menu.   I have never had a red circle with a line pop up on any program in my Start menu, I wanted to know why it happened and how to fix it. The game accepts updates in the form of 'Add packs' of special vehicles in the original site via the EA download manager sports. So I guess that the game is installed correctly, but the game will not open and run at all, not from the start menu, or by clicking the desktop icon. Any help learn more about the red circle with a line about my program and what to do in case it happens again.

    Recently, I installed my Windows 7 Ultimate OS on a SSD which had been replaced because of a total failure of the car. I've updated the operating system with all

    latest updated windows and the updates of my video card, motherboard, HHD and SSD updated; Thus, all the hardware and software are up to date.

    I was going to restore the disk using last good upward from the orginal SSD before he died a month or two ago. So I think this will probably fix my need for speed II problem, but since it's the first time I've ever seen this problem with a program I would like to know how to cope.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated,

    Take care. Skyraider33

    I've never seen what you describe in the Start Menu, either

    You have a new installation of Windows on your new SSD, Yes? If the game is on another HARD disk,
    is that what you did re - install the game after installing the new Windows?
    Otherwise try to reinstall the game and origin. He would register
    entries, both in the previous installation of Windows.

    If this does not help forums EA would probably be a better place to find out if the
    mods are the source of the problem.

  • a key for the table does not exist in the table

    Hi guys,.

    I imported several tables of physical layer in the administration tool. So, I want to do new foreign key between tables join in the physical schema.
    Required fields for posting a link between these tables are set up. When I press the ok button, an error message is displayed:
    "a key corresponding to the table does not exist in the table blablabla. You want to create a? »

    In fact, what is this error? I don't have all the idea about it. The number of the type of the fields is the same, the names are also the same. I think that he should not have problems to make the new foreign key. But why is it happening?

    Thank you

    Hello

    It is the primary key of the first table. You might not have set this column as the primary key of this table at the level of the db.

  • try to install a game. directions to state that if the game does not automatically install for a right click on the cd/dvd driver icon and select "Explore" find file "default.hta.

    HE did exactly as the instructions said.  Double-click the file to launch the game.  is not the case.  I get a box that appears and indicates that windows closes the file because it has ceased to work with an error.

    any body can help me.  I have windows vista 32-bit.  a solution was to lower the load and to buy the program DriverCure.  Well I don't really have extra money right now.  is there another solution to this problem so that I can play my game.

    No, it's not the same game as the PSX one. It's an arcade of Oberon Media (shareware, available athttp://gamecenter.oberon-media.com/game.htm?code=111274487&RefId=&origin=pcat_gm_d). The version that you contains no *.hta file and play very well if you do not use "launcher.exe" of the game (which has a script, leading to an infinite loop error), but the 'treasures of the Deep.exe' instead. Any necessary compatibility setting. "192GO should be enough for everyone." (of the miniseries "Next generation jokes")

  • New Mac, same disk external DRIVE for the library; does not see the files

    I reconnected my iTunes library from a disk external DRIVE to my new computer, but iTunes does not recognize my files of the ALAC instead, he goes to the cloud and plays music from Apple things. How can I listen to my files? All the files are there, the library is intact; I changed the path in iTunes. Without result. He always plays with the cloud.

    You do not change the path in iTunes.  Who does as it says which is tell iTunes where media files [new] store. You change the path you launch iTunes by holding down the option/alt key, while the application starts and then choose when prompted the iTunes Library.itl file in the iTunes folder you included if all goes well on the hard disk external.  If everything you have on the outside are media files, then you better head for your old computer fast and get the rest of the library there.  It's the rest of these files in the iTunes folder that make up the other half of the 'library' iTunes needs.

    Hello

    As with any database, the information that is stored in the database or the database itself can be damaged. The Windows Media Player library database can usually recover automatically from the database. However, the database may be corrupted in such a way that Windows Media Player is unable to recover the database.

    a. click Start, click run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Playerand then click OK.
    b. Select all files in the folderand then click delete on the file menu.

    Note You don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.

    c. restart Windows Media Player.

    Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.

    If this does not resolve the problem, disable the Windows Media Player database cache files. To do this, follow these steps:

    a. click Start , click run , type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft and then click on OK.

    b. Select the Media Player folder, and then click delete on the file menu.

    c. restart Windows Media Player.

    Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.

  • Search for files in the folder does not work

    To do my photo galleries, I use CS5, because it's the last usable version by the modified galleries I could since CS3.  My modified pages have links to other pages on my web site, while those who come now with Photoshop are completely unrelated.

    Thus, another feature lost in the bridges later is the ability to display the ENTIRE contents of a folder and its subfolders.  To work around this problem, I chose to show records including metadata or file name DOES NOT contain zzz, since no don't.  It worked well and I made hundreds of galleries of my trees phylogenetic species folder.

    Until I came to this gallery, of the Tachinidae. I updated all my galleries of arthropods after I did the usual procedure and created the Gallery (and deleted the previous Gallery on my PC and the web), I noticed that the first image is a Belvosia and not the Archytas or other species that should have come before, in alphabetical order.  I tried again and found that it was not a lot of files in subfolders that should have come up.  I tried other finds, as all files ending in .tif, or anything that had the keyword Tachinidae, always the same result.

    Then, I tried the same search in CS6 and he finds everything, but of course, I can't do my galleries here, I went back to CS5 and made a new folder TACHINIDAE 1 and moved all the files and tried again, without success.  I tried a file backup with the same result.  Reset did not help.

    Today, I tried again and as he has done the research, I could see it indexing the Archytax subfolder and others which have not been included, but now, after more than 30 minutes, all I have is a circle of rotation and no element.  I had turned to other folders I did just before galleries and they shoot to the top of all images, as before, but this has stopped my progress in this project dead in my tracks.

    I can't make any sense this at all.

    After hours yesterday and again today on this seemingly intractable problem, I deleted the cache and restored normality!
