• BDX3300kb wakes up in the middle of the night

  We bought a BDX3300KB for use in a bedroom. Unfortunately, it seems to wake up in the middle of the night (around 04:00 hour of the United Kingdom), probably to verify the new firmware etc. As I activated of CEC, the Toshiba TV connected to wake up also.

  In short everything that the power failure, is there a way to stop the player waking up in the middle of the night? If this isn't the case, I think to send it back to Amazon.

  A solution is so far, to set the Wifi network (that we use for iPlayer/Youtube) to ethernet, which is not connected, so there is no network connection, before we turn it off. It seems to stop it to wake up, but this does not mean that the next time we want to use the iPlayer, we must reconfigure the Wifi.

  I wondered if it was one thing to renewal DHCP, so I gave her an address fixed IP, but it does not solve the problem manually.

  Thank you

  So if the network cable is connected, the player does not automatically wakes. Only if the WiFi is enabled. Right?
  In this case I n t think that the player wakes up due to the update of the firmware check.
  I think that something is connected to the wireless drive and this helps the player.

  Check if what would happen once the player has been updated to factory settings

  Hello Xltdnbl,

  Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.  In Windows Vista, there is not a revival on the operating system, but you can add a.  The site below has different types of alarms that can be added.  You can set the alarm to wake up with the sidebar.

• ENVY 17: Laptop wakes from sleep several times during the day

  My laptop did this during the last two weeks.

  When I put on standby, he wakes up after a couple hours stay on for a few minutes and go back to sleep. This process is repeated again and again. In the event logs, the wake-up source is unkonow. There is no wake timers activated, and no device is allowed to wake the computer.

  After many expenses hours working on this and read almost everything done online, I'm stuck. How should I proceed?

  Solved.

  There was a problem with the fast start-up of Intel who woke up my comuter. The solution was to disable it.

• What is wake my computer sometimes in the middle of the night?

  The title says the question, with the qualification that HP destop is put to sleep every night and not wake with the movement of the mouse - a combination of keys is necessary.  But something, I suppose a regular activity, he wakes up now and then.

  How can I view the event log?

  How can I see the Task Scheduler, and what should I look for?

  To view the event log, go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer. Here's how to use Event Viewer: http://www.petri.co.il/vista-event-viewer.htm.

  To access the Scheduler, see the following (which shows you how to set up a task):http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Schedule-a-task.  Check for tasks that are scheduled to run at a specific time (as at 03:00 for verification of the Windows updates) or on the occurrence of certain events (such as a network view) - those who would be most likely to be the cause.

  I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try to find another cause.

  Good luck!

• Help! I managed to pin the workspace to a launcher in the toolbar, and now I work across tools/space bar bar sitting in the middle of my screen in Photoshop. Nothing I try (right/slip etc.) seem to be moving it, can anyone advise p

  Help! I managed to pin the workspace to a launcher in the toolbar, and now I have the bar tools/work space bar sitting right in front of the middle of my screen in Photoshop as below. Nothing I try (right/slip etc.) seem to be moving it, can someone advise please? I think it happened when I accidentally scrolled with the mouse button and it seems to somehow have locked the workspace and flying together. Any ideas please? Thank you

  No need to reset the prefs. Just grab the handle on the left options bar, drag it to the menu bar and drop when a thin blue line appears between them. The options bar behaves just like any other Panel in this regard.

• When you import images in LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a broad yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images on my LR Office and he's not the streak of color.   Can anyone help?

  When you import images in LR5 on my laptop, the photos all have a broad yellow streak through them. This only happens on the laptop; I can import the images on my LR Office and he's not the streak of color.   Can anyone help?

  This happens even with pictures taken on another device, not just mine.  My daughter told me that the phone fell recently.  The yellow streak isn't nowhere elsewhere on the laptop, right on the photos in LR.

  It happens when you import new images. This pourrait indicate that the sector where the pictures are copied to is damaged. But it could be a faulty card reader or a bad cable if you connect the camera directly to the computer. It's a hardware problem. Your challenge is to figure out where this problem.

• Need help to set up FireFox on the new laptop

  My last laptop was killed by a virus (don't worry, I'll scan anything onto my new laptop) so I bought a new laptop. I use Puppy Linux to go into my old laptop because the virus screwed up my log in details.

  Must who and where are the files I have to use and have firefox as it was on my old laptop, 0 on my new laptop. I grabbed the entire folder of Mozilla FireFox from Program Files and entered in the folder (once I transferred it) and opened the FireFox.exe, but it loads FireFox with no bookmarks, plugins etc.

  I want everything that I use for: bookmarks, plugins, styles. I just want that it the same as ut used to be.

  Thank you very much in advance
  Sam

  You are welcome. Just to be clear (and for others who may be reading), you should replace the contents of the new folder profile, such as the file places.sqlite , the folder bookmarkbackups and other files/folders, with the content of the old profile folder. For more information, see recovering data from an old profile .

  You asked, How do I check which version of FireFox, I got no load up. I.e. check a file or something with the details of the version in it.

  You can open the C:\Program Files (x 86)-Mozilla Firefox folder and right-click on the firefox.exe file, choose Properties, then click the Details tab and it will show you the version of the product and other information.

• Mac Air drains almost zero during the night when the laptop is closed.

  In the morning a few last that I was wake up an empty battery and I were not able to find a reason why. For example, last night, I have to close to 33% and earlier this morning it is 2%. My laptop used may use one/zero to 100 during the night, so I don't know what it is.

  The laptop isn't a deal and is closing completely. During the closure, it is either not sleep or something it is waking up. I looked at the activity monitor and nothing takes too much energy (but something could stay while it is supposed to sleep, but I don't know if there is a way to check that).

  I'll leave it open tonight and just push sleep in the menu apple tonight and see how it works. Even if it works, I wish I could just shut up because this is supposed to be able to do.

  Also, I recently downloaded Skype plugin and it's, it's the only change I made in the time this problem started, which may have something to do with it.

  MacAir 11', at the beginning of 2014

  El Capitan 10.11.4

  Reset the SMC. Choose the method for "If the battery is good behaviour."

• Reminders app sends unnecessary notifications in the middle of the night.

  Last month began the reminders-app notifications to wake me in the middle of the night, for no reason.

  Notifications involved items that were overdue and which had already warned me properly a few weeks ago. But I can't find any reason why the app sent me these nasty wake-up calls... Any ideas?

  Hello jsvdb,

  The reminders app is programmed to remind you of respect or overdue items. If you set them to remind you on a weekly basis, she will do. If you said to remember at some point, he will do and repetitively every once in awhile you do remember. Try to open the reminders, and filling all the points mark as done or complete, and/or "slide" the recall left and delete it if you no longer need.

  I hope this helps!

  If not, get back to me here and I'll look like in it.

• My laptop loses its STARTUP information after it was closed during the night

  original title: STUMPER! My laptop loses its STARTUP information after it was closed during the night?

  I have a problem very intrigueing that I can't understand. I can do a clean install of Vista Ultimate(32 or 64 bit), on my gateway M285 - E Tablet PC. Once it's done and I did not yet updates, if I stop the system at night, I wake up and you try to boot the system and get a blue screen (which finally tells me that my "disk.sys" file is missing. I tried plugging it down in increments to see when this file, in fact, is lost. I stopped for about 1 1/2 hours and it will start fine, but during the night, it won't.

  Then I tried a fresh install and did all the updates available, same thing. I tried to start a "memory test and everything is fine." I even did the memory more intense test (which takes forever, by the way... lol). I also did "chkdsk", as well as all viruses and malware, etc. tests with Norton first Edition.

  I got to the point where I now have 3 separate "disk images" that I created to save time in my software I want to use this system of loading. We're just a clean install, that no update, other clean install available updates. and the last with a clean install with all my software MS Office, Adobe Creative Suite and Autodesk Entertainment and all of their updates.

  I did this for if I'll actually somehow solve this problem I can easily use the "disk image" I want... No...

  Oh yes, I also all my drivers up to date etc.

  Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

  EDIT:

  Another problem related to this situation, it's the hard drive becomes undetectable, so I have to use a software such as Ubunta starting vehicle, which has its own operating system, so I can actually format my hard drive to start the installation process. (otherwise my Vista installation won the same recognize I have a hard drive, not to mention operating system to try to resolve, such as startup repair, System Restore, etc.)

  I finally figured it... xD is a hard drive diver who has been desgned for WinXP and for some reason any were never changed during the installation of Vista on this system or automatic updates.

  It was actually the IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers, specifically the Intel SATA AHCI Controller. I used "Driver Whiz/Detective", which would install most drivers via a base file system are integrated.

  The controller AHCI SATA Intel(r) has not, it only downloaded a .zip file that contains the following files:

  IaStor.sys
  iaAHCI.cat
  iaAHCI.inf

  These were to actually be manually installed. "Even if I had downloaded and extracted the files, when I tried to update the driver"Intel SATA AHCI controller"via Device Manager" through the command of newer driver search. It does not always detect it them, stating that I already had the best and latest drivers already installed.

  Then, for some reason that just kept on bothering me, because "Driver Whiz/Detective kept indicating that it was the best version of the driver for my system.

  So, I finally tried to update the drivers manually by specifying exactly where these files are located on my system. Then he finally recognized them and installed them.

  According to me, given that this system is an older model 'Gateway M285-E Tablet PC', even if it is Vista compatible, he has always maintained the operating system higher available for WinXP, through any auto detect in the BIOS. Even in the settings of the BIOS OS I tried assigning 'Other', because the only other options were Win95, Win98, WinMe, Win2000 and WinXP.

  So having not the 'Intel(r) SATA AHCI controller"recognizing a Vista OS after be closed for a period of time, it would try to load a Windows XP operating system, and have failed to do. Strange, but is the only explanation I can offer for her.

  Thanks for the help,
