  • How to disable the laptop network WiFi & allow cable TV

    I have my desktop computer connected using cable for my internet & I have a laptop that I was using WiFi for my internet, how do I change my laptop wi fi to cable so I can go online on my laptop, as well as on my desktop, thanks

    Hello

    You do not have to manually disable you the WiFi, all you have to do is to run an ethernet cable from your router/access point and connect to your ethernet port on the laptop.

    As soon as an ethernet cable is plugged into a computer/laptop, Wifi is disabled automatically, it's the industry standard ethernet tends to provide more transmision of data reliable and stronger than wireless signals.

    However if you use a Modem and not a gateway/router then you can buy a new router, or ask your ISP to upgrade your Moderm to a gateway.

    If you want to keep it cost effective and minimal cost, you could also try doing an Internet connection sharing, providing that your computer has an additional network card, or you could buy a new network adapter and snap it to your computer because the laptop is internet sharing off of your computer in this configuration, you may experience a slow connection.

    If it is a subscription, change your Adobe ID immediately. Now activate it on two computers. That deprives the other computer to this one.

    If it is a purchase, it is not so simple, maybe, they have stolen your right to use the software. Contact Adobe to see if they are ready to release him. Since they cannot block the stolen copy, they give you that here, indeed. It would be one of your insurers.

  • How to disable the touchpad disabled?

    I just got this laptop and it's driving crazy me.

    I tap on the touchpad, and I touched the area where you can disable the touchpad about 1,000 times a day. No matter if I do what he says, I can't that faucet back on.

    I press the windows on my KB.  Type mouse into the search bar.  Tab and then arrow key over to reactivate and it's driving me crazy! I use this for business, but also personal use.

    I see you where you can disable the touchpad, I don't want that.  I want to disable the zone of the touchpad where you tap enable and disable.  It is a defect of design for me.

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    Hello stillrivers,

    I see you are having a problem with the touchpad does not disable. Did you by chance a look at the post which explains how to disable the touchpad?

    If you do not have by chance I'll re-post the answer here:

    To do this...

    Go to the control panel.

    ·         Go to mouse properties windows and click on device settings

    ·         Highlight the Synaptic Touchpad and click settings

    ·         In the properties of Synaptic Touchpad Windows on the left and the Panel you will see Touchpad Disable Zone, click it.

    ·         Uncheck the box 'double-tap to activate or disable the Touchpad'

    ·         Click OK

    If this does not work by chance, let me know. Also, if you have any questions please ask me.

  • I got a new computer (an old dies) new a windows vista and I have to disable the old computer before I load the same copy of Vista on my new computer. If yes how can I do this?

    I got a new computer (an old dies) new a windows vista and I have to disable the old computer before I load the same copy of Vista on my new computer.  If yes how can I do this?

    If Vista is preinstalled on your OLD computer, it is classified as an OEM license and is not transferable.

    The license of Vista OEM is related to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
    You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptop

    If a license of Vista at retail, you can transfer it to another computer/laptop.
    But it can only be installed on one computer at a time.

    A single license is a single Installation.

    If it is a retail Vista license, read the information on the clean install and then reactivate it:

  • How to disable the touchpad on Probook 4525 s permanently?

    How to disable the touchpad on Probook 4525 s permanently?  Can I uninstall the driver in Control Panel, but the next time, he is back on again once.  I use a usb mouse and touchpad is simply in the way when I type.

    Damy salvation!

    There are a few options depending on your OS and your version of TouchPad.

    • The best option, if it should be available for you is:

    New drivers (at least the V16.x) have the ability to disable the TouchPad / click on the keypad with a setting on the main page 'Settings' when a USB mouse is used.  This is a very nice feature.

    Control Panel > display icon > mice > TouchPad [ClickPad] settings >

    CHECK "disable the pointing device internal when the external USB pointing device is attached.

    If you want to be alerted and see a visual cue of disability >

    TICK "Animated icon in the taskbar" >

    and make sure you have your updated task bar notifications so you can see the view of the mouse.

    =====================================================

    Here's a 16.2.X TouchPad driver for the ProBook series - it can run on your laptop:

    sp58647 Synpatics V.16.2.10.12

    =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

    Another method that may work with a driver older if the best option isn't available:

    Control Panel > display icon > mice > TouchPad [ClickPad] settings >

    () repeat) TouchPad settings (button) > click tapping >

    Click the shimmering blue wheel

    In "box to Disable TouchPad settings".

    CHECK "Double Tap to activate / disable the TouchPad.

    In the 'Action in the upper left'

    CHECK "Turn off the TouchPad.

    Close

    Ok


    NOTE
    if this alternative is available, it is very well, unless something goes wrong.  You could get stuck without your USB mouse AND no way to return to the setting to activate the touchpad.  I don't know if I would use this setting.

    ===================================================================================

    I hope this helps!

  • 230 portable x - how to disable the touchpad Windows 8 gestures

    no idea how I can stop the touchpad to launch Windows 8 charms bar when there is a hit on the right side of the touchpad?  In addition, drag from left to right on the left side of the touchpad app switching begins.  It is a pain that working me inside an application (e.g. web browser) using the touchpad I will accidentally move apps frequently.  How I disabled?  I could not find a setting in the ultranav software provided with the laptop.

    You must change the following registry keys to the following:

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    There are several ways to do this - method you choose may depend on what you need to accomplish.

    Follow a few ideas.

    • A double tap farm in the upper left corner of the touch pad if it off for a single session.
