How can I get my dvd player to play blu ray discs.
The software plays fine other DVDs, but won't play Blu Ray. This is the Pavilion dv7 3165 with operating system Windows 7 Premium. I never succeeded with this problem and thought that he would solve with updates...
Download Cyberlink Power DVD10 and save it to the desktop, not in a temporary folder
http://FTP.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp53001-53500/sp53029.ex
After it's over, do a right click and go to properties and you should see what is in the screenshot.
There has been many problems with software programs of virus blocking critical files in the player (s) Blu - ray. For the most part, disable the antivirus or programs was sufficient, but with McAfee, it had to be completely uninstalled. If at this point, uninstall your antivirus software, no matter what it is, and if there is a special tool required by the developer to uninstall properly, use their tool when it will exist. I know Norton and, possibly, Avira requires an uninstall tool.
Once it is uninstalled restart your laptop and you will get the warning typical of Windows that the world will come to an end to crash, because you do not have an anti virus program on your computer. Just ignore it and continue with the installation of power DVD10, note that it is important that you stay connected to the internet, the software to install correctly. The link is directly from the view of HP it is has no viruses, Trojans etc attached.
After it is done installing, restart your machine. This is important.
After the restart, go to control panel, then Auto Play and make sure power DVD10 is chosen for Blu - ray discs, if it has not been chosen click the menu drop down and choose to do and save the setting. Restart your computer and go back to auto play and make sure that the setting has been saved.
Then, open the drawer of the DVD/Blu-ray with the button on the front of the drawer itself and leave the charge for Blu - ray automatically with the opening of Cyberlink DVD 10
At this point, you can reinstall your anti virus software if the drive Blu - ray continues to work then you will have to go into the advanced settings and find which files are blocked in the drive and let them. It's not always easy, so I advise to use ESET (not free) or Microsoft Security Essentials (free). I have used in the past and they never gave me any problems with my Blu - ray players.

I stopped to receive mail after December 31. It indicates that the computer cannot connect to my account but when I log in with my password I get the message "this account already exists." How can I get my email account to work again?
MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan
First of all, make sure that you don't have two accounts with the same address. What happens if one of them is an iCloud account.
From the Mail menu bar, you select
▹ Connection Doctor window
In the window that opens, look for an SMTP (outgoing mail) account with a name that corresponds to the account that you are trying to add. Double-click it. Another window opens, displaying the list of all outgoing mail accounts. Click the sign button less to remove the corresponding one, and then click OK.
Try to add the email account again. If you still can not, log off or restart the computer, and then open the preferences window accounts Internet and check if the account is displayed.

How can I get rid of a pop-up again warning "your CODEC is obsolete?
How can I get rid of a pop-up again warning "your CODEC is obsolete?
Hello
1. when exactly you get this error message?
2. don't you make changes to the computer until the problem occurred?
3. have you installed any third-party codec on your computer? If so, try to update the code.
If you get this error message when starting your computer then I would you put your computer in a clean boot state, and check to see if the same problem happens.
By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.
Follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:
(a) click on start toreduce this top that i, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box and press ENTER.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click continue.
(b) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.
(c) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click restart.
Hope this information is useful.
