How can I join a homegroup in windows 7

• Can't join a homegroup error "Windows can't detect a homegroup on this network."

  Original title: Cannot join a homegroup

  I have 4 PCs in my Home Network, called "IqbalHome". Two of them are desktop computers (both are a Dell Optiplex 760 with Windows 8 Enterprise) and two of them are laptops (Dell N4050 with Windows 8 Enterprise and HP Pavilion with Windows 8 Enterprise g4). All windows are updated and activated.
  Now, my Homegoup is running on Dell N4050 with Windows 8 enterprise and other computers have joined it with success, but when I try to join my new G4 HP Pavilion, it takes 4-5 minutes in the treatment and then says that "Windows can't detect a homegroup on this network. To create a new Homegroup click OK and open homegroup in Control Panel. ', and I can't even open its resources from the 'network' in my computer.
  I checked the 'advanced settings sharing' of 'Network and sharing Center' in the control panel and both have the same settings and connected to the network as a private network wireless. I tried all solutions here are http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/homegroup-problems-in-windows, but could not get this to work.
  These are the network settings for computers:
  (1) connected to the Tenda W150D WiFi and ADSL modem
  (2) HP Pavilion has "192.168.0.4" IP and Dell N4050 "192.168.0.50' with the same mask subnet, gateway and DNS.
  (3) advanced sharing settings are the same.
  (4) network discovery is running and all the services are great too.
  (5) HP with 192.168.0.4 can get ping 192.168.0.50 in 2-3 ms, but when I try to go through the network, it is said, 'Path network not found' and when I diagnose the problem, he said, "the remote device or resource accepts the connection".
  The confusing thing is that I can still access the Dell N4050 on other computers and use its shared resources, but the problem is only with HP Pavilion. I really don't like Windows to do this and I'm planning to switch to Linux as Windows is not a developer friendly environment, there are a lot of annoying things in it.
  Any kind of help will be really appreciated.

  Hello

  Did you make any changes before the show?

  Method 1:

  Temporarily disable the software antivirus (and any other security software) and the firewall on the computer as a test and check if this solves the problem follow the link below:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

  If disabling the antivirus software solves the problem, you may need to configure the settings of the antivirus as a result program.

  Note: make sure that you enable the antivirus software, other security and firewall programs.

  Warning: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Please note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

• How can I remove the homegroup to my desktop icon?

  How can I remove the homegroup icon that suddenly appeared on my desktop Windows 8

  I know and respect the fact that Sharief K is a Microsoft Support Engineer. but he doesn't know what he's talking about as a Microsoft Support engineer or he didn't understand the question.

  However, here's how to solve the problem in the right way...

  Question about this community newsletter is:

  (Windows 8) How can I remove the 'host group icon"from the desktop?

  Answer:

  1 right-click somewhere on the desktop that is free of icon/s with the left button of the mouse.
  Select "Customize" in the context menu, which will take you to the selection of window customize.

  2. Select "Change desktop icons" in the area of the hand at the top left of this window.  A "Change desktop icons" dialog (context menu) is displayed.

  3. Note the box on the left of the 'network' is checked.  Uncheck the box and then left click of the mouse will apply.

  4. at this point, the 'host group icon"will be removed from the desktop.  Now again check the box to the left of the 'Network' and then the mouse left click apply.

  And your all set.  That is of course until what you restart your computer, in which case this problem will happen again.  Gives one does not want to restart its system ever if you have Windows 8.

  On a more personal note, I am A +, Network +, MCP and a Bachelor's degree in electronic engineering technology and experienced Microsoft since 1992 when I always still served in the U.S. Army.  Sorry, but I am appalled and disgusted with the OS of Windows 8 not to mention Microsoft Office.

• Adobe Captivate 7 - How can I create a Pop Up window that I can use as a print, warning or something else?

  Hello

  I've produced an e-Learning in Adobe Captivate 7, which consist of a vertical menu and a horizontal menu. The vertical menu on the left of the screen is the table of contents for e-Learning. It consists of all the themes of the small horizontal learning e - Learning.The is located on the upper side of the screen. This menu contains menu options such as 'legal' and 'warning '. They are textlinks / hypertext links. How can I join, it will open a pop-up window on the e-Learning after clicking on menu "imprint" or "warning? The pop-up windows should have the same design as the e-Learning for himself.

  Thank you very much for your answers!

  That would be my approach:

  • Create all objects in the pop-up window on the first slide, group them (Gr_Popup) and their time for the rest of the project, Place objects on verified top. Be sure to include the X button, which should be a button of form because a normal button cannot be programmed for the rest of the project. A form is also a text container, it may not be a problem.
  • Create a tip action "Mount" that you can run on enter for each slide to hide Gr_Popup, tip even action can be used for the X button. You could create an action as well, with one group setting. Depending on the setting of the slide, perhaps, it may be necessary to add the Continue statement for this action if used on enter. Don't need her for the action of the X key.
  • Use another button of form for action "to be clicked to display the context menu. For this one, you have the choice:
    • on the master slide (make sure you have model objects of slides on top for daughter master slides), given that you don't need to control (show/hide) button by any action
    • or also on the first slide and timed for the rest of the project
  • Create another advanced (or shared action) with the statement "Gr_Popup Show".

  Hello

  Your MP3 player should have 2 settings - MSC that should allow the player to be used as a
  external drive and PSG that is the parameter to use to sync with WMP11. Remove the MP3
  and restart the computer. Change the MP3 in MTP mode - it power off and plug it in.

  I hope this helps.
