Google Earth and camera running after sleep.
I closed the lid on my Macbook Pro late 2013 to put to sleep and awoke to find Google Earth and my camera running. The only apps I leave but no open Windows Mail and Chrome. I saved my system log to a text file, but can not find to search. I didn't save all newspapers. Never had this happen before. Could I have malware? There is a lot of activity in the mode 'sleep'! I don't know if this is the best place to post - perhaps under El Capitan would have been better.

Check that your ... System Preferences > energy saver > annex > start or reactivate setting is off (no indicator check.)
Also check the box wake for network access is not marked.
Finally, make sure that the lock in this window is closed to avoid changes until you provide your administrator name and password.
Do these three things should prevent anything using your Mac, until I YOU wake up from its sleep.

You can check for malware using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac.

Since the upgrade to 12.0, I am only able to do a Google search. After the initial search, nothing happens when you try to make another. I have to close the browser and reopen it to each search. Any ideas.
Try to start Firefox in safe mode. This mode disables all extensions, customizations, hardware acceleration, etc., temporarily for the diagnosis and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then it is probably a problem with the add-on. Restart Firefox in normal mode, and then type "subject: addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions, restart Firefox between each one, until you find the troublemaker.
A few other basic problems you can try things is the following:
Run all Windows updates, install all required service packs, etc.Updating your graphics driver (Firefox uses the graphics card for rendering and an outdated graphics card driver can cause problems. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers.

Experienced a severe slowness and lock-up with Firefox to the end, which ends with a sharp decline in the use of memory and I have repeatedly shut down by the Task Manager. I created a new profile and disabled hardware acceleration. I tried to disable all plug-ins and extensions, but I noticed that sometimes (not always) plugin container was always an active process, I don't understand. Why would it be active when there is no plugin activated? I also noticed that when the plugin container is not active (list under process in the Task Manager), I don't have this problem and Firefox works normally? I need to block the plugin container. Help, please.
If you have deactivated plugins and plugin-container should not be executed. It's one of the reasons I suggested malware scans.
The Windows XP Task Manager lists the processes running. It will list the plugin - container.exe but I don't think it goes further. IIRC a Sysinternals utility was required to get information on the processes associated with the plugincontainer.
Microsoft will now offer free downloads and documentation for which is the Sysinternals software.

How to stop Wampmanager.exe and easyphp to run after uninstall wampserver
I've been with wampserver (apache, mysql, and php) for a while now. I needed upgrade of wamp and I am well aware that I need to completely uninstall it before installing the new version, I did. Unfortunately for me, until I installed the new version, after that Setup and it has not worked, I uninstalled, redownloaded, tried again. Finally, verified the wamp forum was packed with complaints about the x 64 version was a corrupted file. So I installed the 32 bit version to use temporarily. The next day, the new version has been released. So I installed and decided to check out the forum before going any further.
No more complaints about the bugs. Finally, I decided that since the new wampserver has so many bugs, I'd rather stay here. I installed EasyPHP. Then I saw wampmanager.exe (0 2 services performed) in my taskbar properties. so I uninstalled easyphp.
Long story short, I think that somewhere throughout this frustration, I forgot to stop the server (wampserver) before uninstalling. And Yes, I cleaned my registry of all things wamp after each uninstall.
Now, when I click on the taskbar properties, I see wampmanager.exe and EasyPHP, but neither are installed. (Wampmanager.exe initially says '0 2 running services', but I was able to reinstall, and then stop the service and uninstall.) Now only says: wampmanager.exe). I tried a system restore, reinstall, uninstall. How can I get these 2 to stop smoking? Help please!
Original title: help! Wampmanager.exe and easyphp running after uninstall wampserver. How can I stop and remove it completely?Hello

Google Earth do not support DirectX
I have installed Google Earth on my old desktop computer running Windows XP Professional. After finishing, I open it, displays the first message, Google earth is not supported graphics card in my computer when I check do not show this message again and the second message appears, "DirectX" mode not supported.
It gives 4 suggestions for correction:
(1) set to "True color" (32 bit) color depth in display properties
(2) start Google Earth after waiting a minute
(3) close the other applications (especially if they use 3D)
(4) download and install DirectX 9.0 c or higher by following the linkHere is what happened:
(1) I already had the "True Color" (32 bit) value
(2) tried starting after a minute - same as before
(3) no other application was open
(4) downloaded DirectX according to the instructionsI always get the same error message. I found Googling it might be a problem with the graphics card drivers. I think the graphics card is a 8586 Intel graphics (I hope I got this right!).
It also makes no difference to the opening of Google Earth, however.
Does anyone have any suggestions?In any case, I try to use the latest version of Google earth, but cannot use it and when I try to installed later in my desktop computer, run windows 7, it works fine.I tried to download the previous version of google earth, version 6.2, I can install and use it very well.It's that I would ask that this problem seems to be caused by windows, hardwars or Google earth?Hi Vidal.
