How to use the windows firewall, to block the software on my computer to access internet
When my computer is connected to the internet, other software installed on my computer connect to the internet without my knowledge. I want to stop this and want windows firewall to ask me whenever a program tries to connect to the internet. Please help me
It will take some serious reading on your part.
You can configure the Vista Firewall to be a two-way firewall; and it's very good.
Read all the info in the link below:
http://articles.TechRepublic.com.com/5100-10878_11-6098592.html
At first glance, the Vista firewall seems to be identical to the Windows Firewall in Windows XP SP 2. But once you learn the secret to access its configuration settings advanced through the MMC snap-in, you will be able to configure and customize outbound and inbound rules to adapt to your specific needs.
See you soon.

How to use the software keyboard Toshiba 50L9450VE TV?
I just bought a LED TV model 50L9450VE. When installing, I need to enter the password for the wifi network. The remote doesn't have a keyboard of the letter, and the TV shows a soft keyboard to enter the password. How to use the software keyboard? I can't figure out how to get the cursor in it; the manual does not say, and I can't find the information online. Thank you.

Suppose you are from Israel? Although this model is not made for the EU market, but probably for the Asian market, it looks like the European L93 series.

How to use the files from old computer to new iTunes
I have been using an external hard drive to store and access my media files to iTunes via iTunes on another computer. I just got a new computer and want to use this hard drive and files of music via iTunes on it. What is the best way to do this and what are the steps to begin to play the files from the hard drive on the new iTunes?
I have changed the preferences of the media folder in iTunes without result and sought media when iTunes opens, also without result. Thank you!!!
Media preferences are not what you think. Change said iTunes simply to memorize new media at this location. This is the file iTunes Library.itl tells iTunes where your media. If you use the same external drive (and these are the two Macs) copy the old iTunes folder form computer to the same location on the new computer and it will start with the old library.

Hello
After a lot of work, I finally could restore my OS using Windows backup disks that I created a few years back. (The OS has been corrupted when the power has been accidentally deleted from the system and the battery was dead)
Restoring backup widows put everything on 444 GB C drive. Nothing I put on the SSD drive d:-20 GB and there is nothing in the tools of HP E: drive - 4 GB
How can I make use of the SSD drive to help speed up the system? I see the system starts and runs more slowly now. I'm ready to blow the current operating system and re-run the Windows backup utility. But I need to know how to use the SSD during the restoration.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
Bob
Hey @llebrez,
Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! This is a great place to find solutions and help our community!I understand that you have some information about using the SSD in your HP Pavilion dm4 Beats Edition Entertainment Notebook. I'd be happy to help you with that.
The SSD in your laptop is used for a technology called Intel Smart Response. Intel Smart Response uses the SSD as a type of Cache smart to help load the items faster. The reason why that is not used currently is because the restoration of the system is not designed to use the SSD for intelligent caching and is not able to establish that on its own.
If you want to configure Intelligent caching on your laptop, you can follow this guide provided by overclock.net: how: implement the Intel Smart Response Technology (SSD caching)
I hope this helps. If you have more questions that I'm able to answer for you, please do not hesitate to ask.
Please hold me.

How to use transfer windows for xp to xp. When I plug usb computers are delivered to the top with the same screen and when I try to use the transfer to the new computer, it just said information gathering and sits for hours
Hello, welcome.
The process is automatic and the maximum transfer rate should be about 20 GB/HR. If the process crashes during that long of a time, it's probably because of something internal rather something you're doing wrong.For reference purposes, I included this link. It goes into the details of the migration from XP to Vista (and the basic steps you follow). The instructions are for migrating to Vista via the network, but you can easily follow the steps and choose a different option for your specific installation.http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/migrating-Vista-using-Windows-easy-transfer.htmlFor both machines, I recommend you to prepare for the transfer using the following procedure:1. click on START > run2 type "msconfig" (without the quotes) and press enter3. go to the "Startup" tab and uncheck all the entries displayed4. click on 'Apply' at the bottom rightDO NOT RESTART YOUR COMPUTER AGAIN5. click on START > run6. Type "cmd" (without the quotes). Right-click on the result at the top of the menu START and select 'run as administrator '.7. type chkdsk /r and press enter8 allow the system to attempt disassembly of the volume9. allow the system to plan restarting10. restart your computer11 let checkdisk analyze the file system on your hard drive12. Once completed, perform the same steps on the other machine13. Once completed, repeat the transfer

How to use the Microsoft Narrator in Windows Vista
I would use this feature - just do not know how. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? Any help is appreciated?

Windows comes with a screen reader called Narrator, which reads text on the screen aloud and describes some events (such as displaying an error message) that happen while you're using the computer.
You can see the following article on how to use the narrator in Windows Vista.
