  • How to replace the contents of the settings/passwords backup server / current browser bookmarks?

    Classic scenario: after the bookmark long manual organization Firefox Sync adds trash of its server to my laptop or tablet.

    Where can I find how to replace the content of the backup of the server by settings/passwords / current browser bookmarks? Stupid me, I put a new synchronization and lost this ability.

    It is not recommended to go back to the old version of Sync

    The old version is removed he'll stop being available soon, it takes getting used to using the new version.

    IIRC, it is actually possible to force synchronization of the old working with Fx29 & Fx30 using an old profile or preferences of piracy, but I don't think I should encourage users to try this, but it would be better than using an older version of Firefox which is really bad. In fact using an old outdated version of Firefox is so bad, that it is customary to recommend using a browser on alternative day of someone else instead.

    Firefox ESR is aimed at corporate users, definitely, at the moment, it will use the synchronization of the former. Who will update soon to use synchronization well again, and this time, I guess the synchronization of the former will probably totally frowned upon for example are not available at all.

    It is possible to use the feedback system to leave a short comment on Sync. I would recommend this making, but at least to make very many people of spirit comments that I doubt will have no effect.

  • HP a1250n, radeon xpress 200 question after replacing the CPU, Standard VGA Graphics goes not down

    Recently, I messed up my CPU and bought a replacement (exact same kind). I am running windows 7 ultimate and for about 6 months prerequisites with no problems. After replacing the CPU I get intermittent lock ups, sometimes with a small portion of the screen flashes. I say intermittent but at least every 15-20 minutes. Different programs, different habits, but still the screen freezes.

    I went in and deleted the driver under graphics cards, pick a 'completely remove the option' - it after restarting the system on its own charged for a Standard VGA Graphics Adapter and since there is then no more accidents. Of course the functionality is not as complete, large icons and such, but it works.

    If it certainly seems to point to a driver conflict I think. But for this machine, is there ever any single Vista Windows 7 driver. My skills are not so, but I'm moving.

    Any guidance?

    Hello

    Yes, your PC has integrated graphics controller: ATI Radeon XPress 200, we don't find drivers compatible Windows 7 ATI.

    The BEST OPTION: Buy a video card, then insert it into slot PCI Express 16 on the motherboard to better display and multimedia performance with Windows 7 to a value using else, it looks just like Windows XP

  • Satellite Pro L50 - a: how to replace the memory, HARD drive and battery

    I just uploaded 2 new video from Youtube on the L50 - A. Satellite Pro

    The first is a tear down showing how to replace the memory, hard drive and battery (you can also clean the fan if it detects overheating).

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=IG0lW7t92bI

    BTW why they made it so difficult to get just to the battery in this model?

    WARNING - proceed at your own risk and don't forget static precautions!

    Hope they help and if you have any questions let me know.

    Thanks for these videos. It may be useful to replace the memory, but I think that the owners of the laptop should not open the case. This may void the warranty.
    Be careful about this.

  • How to replace the CD/DVD-Rom on Satellite Pro 2100

    Hello

    My laptop's dvd - rom drive is old and broken, now that I have here an other dvd - rom drive, but I don't know how to remove the old dvd - rom without removing all parts of my laptop. Is there some service manuals how to replace the dvd - rom drive?

    Hello

    I m not 100% sure on the CD/DVD drive replacement on this laptop, but I assume that the procedure is very similar to other portable players.
    For the most part the ODD is secured with the screw at the bottom of the unit.
    You will need to remove this screw to get out and to swap the drive.

    But be careful and don t there if you have no experience!
    Moreover, not all readers are compatible and supported in reason parameters master/slave/c-salt. If you n t know which drives are compatible you should ask the ASP in your country for advice!

  • Qosmio G50 - 10J: how to replace the optical disc drive (ODD)?

    Hello

    the optical drive of my Qosmio G 50 does not work properly, it reads only some movie-DVD, but unfortunately not videogameDVDs at all, so I can't install any games.
    The guarantee is also outdated. So I wanted to ask if it is possible to change the disk myself, if it is then how I had to do and if by the laptop would be in
    risk to get damaged?

    I would be very grateful for each tip and all the help guys can give me!

    Best regards

    In various cases the ODD replacement is very delicate.

    If you wish, you can consult this forum category.
    Here you will find some videos how to replace the ODD on the different laptop models:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/Forums/Forum.jspa?forumid=115

    This is also a nice Youtube Channel which provides the instructions how to replace the ODD:

    But the ODD laser lens may be dirty. In my case I could solve similar problem, cleaning the lens of the laser by using a cotton ball and alcohol tip.
    But make sure that this!

  • How to replace the HDD on Satellite 1130?

    How to replace the hard drive in this notebook?

    Hello

    If I remember well HDD is under the optical media drive. Optical media drive is fixed with a screw that you see above the player. Remove the screw and remove the drive from the Bay.

    HARD drive is fixed, I think, 4 screws (probably black). When the screws are removed you can use two fingers to remove the HDD from the connector plug. I hope you now know how to put the new HARD drive.

    Good bye

    Hello

    Well, the replacement of HARD disk drive is very easy on the Tecra S1.
    At the bottom of the unit, you will find a cover that protects the HARD drive Bay.
    A screw covers. Remove it.
    Then, it should be possible to remove the HARD drive.

    The replacement of the screen is another matter. It is not easy to remove it. In this case I recommend to contact Toshiba service in your country for details.

  • Re: Satellite A100-692 - how to replace the CD/DVD drive?

    I found no still no guide how to replace the unit.

    Is there something available?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello!

    AFAIK, you must remove the keyboard first, before you can replace the CD/DVD drive. Remove the screws on the lower side, and then you can push the disc if you have replaced the keyboard.
    It seems to be a bit tricky

    Maybe you should ask a technician for laptop to help. They can replace the CD/DVD drive for you.

  • Satellite C670d - 11 k - can I replace the CPU?

    Can I replace the CPU on my 11K satellite C670D help please

    Hello

    The chipset is AMD A50M, so you can ONLY use AMD processors that are supported by the chipset.
    But it is still open question whether the BIOS would support the new processor.

    Since updates are not official supported by any laptop manufacturer, you will not find this info anywhere...
    If these updates are at your own risk, and no one would be able to tell if the laptop would be stable after this upgrade the CPU.
