  • desktop has been "amplified" and will not return to normal

    When I installed Windows 7 recently I was curious about the "magnifying glass" option in the menu.  I've blown up and then tried to return to normal, but the screen is magnified.  It is said magnification will work in home mode, but somehow it magnified the screen when I pressed it originally (not in home mode) and now I can not return to the State not enlarged.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.

    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

    See you soon.

  • Icons become very large and do not match the screen

    My screen keeps going wonky and the image becomes too large for the iPad mini.  I continue to turn it off, and sometimes it returns to normal.  How can I stop this from happening?

  • My Sony Handycam DCR-TRV950 flashes a yellow icon, C:31:23 and will not record or play.

    A year ago, the camera suddenly started flashing and beeps a yellow icon in the middle of the screen. C:31:23 flashes in the upper right corner above the minutes from the end. The camcorder will not record or play.

    If I remove and reseat or change the battery, and if I remove and reinsert or pass the minidisk, sometimes it'll save or play for a while before the beeps happen again.

  • Satellite L40 breaks down after 5-10 minutes and will not return

    I hope someone can help

    I have a toshiba Satellite L40. It has not been used for a while, but I need to have stuff on it.
    Put it on yesterday and then crashed after 10 minutes and would not go back
    .the same thing happened today.

    I took out the battery and tried just to power / and vice versa, but no joy.
    I'm not very technical was so had no idea what to try next.

    Hello

    If I understand your question, the unit stopped automatically.
    Such judgment may be related to high temperatures inside the laptop.

    L40 series is a bit old and probably the cooling vents and grilles are obstructed by dust.
    Try to remove the dust using a jet of compressed air. Generally, this lets get removed dust and it helps to keep the temperature low.

    Of course, this procedure would only if the problem is related to high temperatures.
    In the case of the laptop shuts down for other reasons, this workaround would be useless

    You said you need to get something from him in this case you could remove the internal HARD disk and could connect to another laptop computer through SATA to USB controller.

  • Google mail is taken offline and will not return.  How to remedy this?

    I have a new MacAir.  I recently updated to the account of Google browser to use as the source for my gmail account.  Since its acquisition last week, he regularly went offline for recovery of emails but reappeared after several minutes (and through procedures online reactive which, so far, have worked) and I can't understand how to bring it back online.  The gmail account and emails are accessible via the web using the gmail account and password that worked in the past, but everything I've tried has failed to download in the Mac Air has not worked since.  Gmail downloads work on all other products Apple, including Mac, iPhone and iPad.  Only the new MacAir is causing problems.

    Messaging uses two servers, a sending server and a receiving server. When you initially configure Apple mail, he pretended that they are the same and tries to use the same credentials for both.

    Sometimes, the problem is only to the sender, or only in the receiver.

    Mail > window > connection doctor...

    ... will show you the status of each independently, so that you can go right tot the source of the problem and fix it by clicking on the red light, as appropriate.

    If you pick up mail on multiple devices (you mentioned an iPhone and iPad) you will want to choose Protocol IMAP rather than pop.

  • Windows Explorer error 0x8007007A: "the data area passed to a system call is too small" and will not accept simple word doc to a new file

    I have seen questions about this error in Re (with no response) Task Manager, but it popped up just for me just trying to move a document to a new file (file) in Windows Explorer.  I'm not a techie.  I use a new Windows 7 laptop, networked with a desktop computer running XP - live files on the XP, so I guess it's an XP issue.  The file tree is quite long. I tried to delete and recreate the folder.  No luck.   New - I got a few word documents in a folder, I created a folder under the original, tried to move word documents & PDF files in the folder and suddenly get this error.  I created thousands of new records - never saw this before.

    The previous times I've seen that error (regarding printer installation issues or Scheduler tasks), if seemed to be linked to a care/firewall Windows. Just to smile, have you tried to disable any software firewall/security (temporarily) and see if that makes a difference.

    BTW, it's a new show (as a few update/install can be causing it) or always happened?

  • Mini 210-1091NR wireless network adapter is disabled and will not return to the top.

    For a month every time I receive an update of windows, (and often!) My broadcom wireless adapter arrives as disabled when the computer restarts. Normally I can uninstall the driver and do a reinstall and the wireless will start working again. However after upgrade of the past few weeks, the wireless is not working. I am running windows 7 ultimate and I have no idea what else to try right now. I noticed that the adapter will work always as long I have start in safe mode, but it's not really very good for everyday use.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    OK I found my own solution, or the moment. I deleted the HP wireless assistant and now he connects very well. Must be some sort of inadequate with the windows wireless somehow.
