• Unwanted system tray items

  Hello

  I recently used Revo Uninstaller to uninstall Weather Watcher Weather Watcher Live and the weather Bug.  More than anything was removed except for their icons in the system tray and options from the Panel Notification area icon.  How can I get rid of any trace of these applications?

  I guess I can not attach an image here so here is a link to a screen shot of what I speak:

  http://I103.Photobucket.com/albums/M132/bug67/computer/UnwantedSysTrayItems.jpg

  I had a few other stray files I could get rid with regedit, but I for the life of me can't understand it.

  I hope I have this in the right place.  I don't know there files somewhere that I need to remove the reason why I chose this forum.  Thanks in advance.

  Ok.  I found the answer!  Found an article here:

  http://www.askvg.com/how-to-remove-unwanted-items-from-Hide-inactive-icons-customization-box-in-Windows-XP-Vista-and-7/

  In short:

  To remove last icons in Windows 7:

  1. go to start / run and type regedit to open the registry editor.

  2. click on: HKEY_CURRENT_USER Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify

  3. in the right panel to find PastIconStream & IconStream, delete both.

  4. close the registry.

  5. open the Task Manager

  6. scroll through the list of processes and find explorer.exe

  7 highlight explorer.exe and choose end task (you will be presented with a warning - ignore & continue)

  8. under the Manager tasks you will see on the disappearance of office, but do not panic because they're all coming back with the next step.

  9. in the Task Manager which is still open, click the file tab, and then click New task (run) & type Explorer and then press ENTER. Your desktop will instantly bounce vice versa, all neat & clean up too.

  Now, check your Notification area & all the old relics of uninstalled programs icon previously will have disappeared from the list.

  Worked like a charm!  Thanks Sid vicious form askvg!  :)

  Then perform the following steps:

  • Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
  • In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.

  1 triple - click on the line below on this page to select, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents

  In the Finder, select

  Go ▹ go to the folder...

  from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return. A folder named "LaunchAgents" opens.

  Press command-2 key combination to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

  There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click on this title to sort the content by date. This will make the related files easy to identify regardless of their names, because they will have the same modification date.

  2A inside of the folder that you just opened, there may be files with the name of all these forms:

  something. AppRemoval.plist

  Something.download.plist

  Something.ltvbit.plist

  Something.notification.plist

  Something.Update.plist

  Here, something is usually an empty string of sense, for example one of the following:

  Epolife

  InstallMac

  Javeview

  Kuklorest

  Manroling

  Here are examples, not a comprehensive list. The chain could be anything, and there might be more value of something. Looking for a group of files with the same date of change who match the description.

  Lately, the striker of "InstallMac" a were quick strings 'AppRemoval', 'download', 'ltvbit' and 'update' in the names of its records. For example, you might see file names such as these, instead of the above:

  something. AppVemoral.plist

  Something.dolnwoad.plist

  Something.btvlit.plist

  Something.uadpte.plist

  You may have more than one copy of the malware, with different values of something.

  Place all of these in the trash. If there are other files whose name begins with something, those in the trash also move. You can get a caveat that some files are locked; Delete them anyway.

  Once you've done that, we may not have anything left in the LaunchAgents folder; in this case, you can remove the folder, but otherwise does not delete it. Other files in the folder are not necessarily malicious (though they may be, if you have also installed another type of malware).

  Log off or restart the computer. The Trojan horse should now be inactive.

  3. This step is optional. Open the folder as in step 1:

  ~/Library/Application Support

  and move it to the trash of the subfolders with the name, something you found in step 2.

  Do not move the Application Support folder or anything else inside.

  4. open the Applications folder. If there is an element named something, or "Hell Zip", or with any of the other names listed in step 2, then drag it to the trash.

  If in doubt, press option-command-4 key combination to get the apps by date added. Look at the apps that have been added since you first noticed the problem. If there is one, that you don't recognize, drag it to the trash.

  You can get an alert that the item is locked. Confirm that you want to move to the trash.

  Empty the trash.

  If you receive an alert that the application is running, force it to quit.

  5. from the Safari menu bar, select

  ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ Extensions

• Tecra M7 - display will not be repeated after 10 minutes of inactivity

  Hello everyone, I'm new here so please be patient with me! :-)

  I've had my new Tecra M7 for about a week now, and while everything else seems to work perfectly, there is a problem with the LCD screen. By default, it is configured to turn off after being idle for 10 minutes. The problem is that it won't resume from this State.

  I see that the laptop itself is working (he reacts to pressure on keys etc.) but I had to Hibernate and resume the screen lights up. The touchpad and keyboard activity doing nothing, only hibernate.

  At the office, I use the laptop dual-view mode with external 19 "LCD screen connected as secondary display. In this case, the external LCD display will resume after moving the mouse or touch the touchpad, but the primary laptop LCD screen will remain inactive until hibernation.

  My question is: do you have someone running into the same question, or that someone has any ideas?

  I thought to upgrade drivers Quadro NVS, but discovered that the pre-installed ForceWare drivers (version 84.52) accompanying are actually more recent than those displayed on the nVidia site (84,26 - confusion)! Also he reports (everywhere in the system), it has 256 MB of video RAM, so the specification Tecra M7 on the box says 128 MB so I don't know which is correct?

  Thanks for all the ideas in advance!
  RADO

  Hello

  Certainly, the nVIDIA Quadro NVS 110 M on the Tecra M7 graphics card supports 128 MB of video RAM.
  Graphics drivers from Toshiba are not the same thing as the manufacturers of original cards drivers. Toshiba drivers are a bit changed.
  You must use the drivers from the site of nVidia, but especially on the site of Toshiba.

  If there is a newer version of the graphics card driver, then remove the old and install the driver from the website of Tosh.
  Additional if the new BIOS have been published, you can try to update. But be careful. Be sure to use the good BIOS and the correct procedure for updating the BIOS.

  Good luck..

• iMessage inactive account

  The Message app does not work on my MacBook Pro. I tried looking for the community but have not found a resolution. I have a MacBook Pro (retina, mid-2012) running OS X El Capitan 10.11.4.

  Message has worked with Yosemite, but stopped working after the installation of El Capitan. More specifically, when I go into Preferences-> accounts I get a my iTunes account which is grayed out and said (inactive) iMessage. In the real application of the Messages, I am unable to send or receive messages.

  I use the same account on iPhone and iPad iTunes and these work with beautiful Messages.

  Hello

  The iMessages it takes in Messages and Apple ID.

  Most people use the same as the one they use to iCloud in system preferences.

  However, they may be different because there is no option to activate the ID iCloud BOF Messages, FaceTime or iTunes, the App Store (or game Center)

  Internet accounts in system preferences will show Jabber, AIM and Yahoo account which may be activated in Messages for the cat.

  I assume you mean this preferences

  

  The "Enable this account" box IS visible (I assume that you have not until now and he's waiting for a password)

  IF you use 2 verification step, you must create a password for the specific Application for Messages.

If THE reports any errors that have been corrected, and then run repair disk again until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, click repair permissions. Wait until the operation is complete, then exit FROM and return to the installer.

  Restart your computer normally and see if it helped at all. Then do little maintenance:

  For disk utility can't handle situations, the best third party is Disk Warriorutility;  Fixed DW only for problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by the corruption of directory; Warrior drive 4.x is now compatible with Intel Mac.

  Note: Alsoft ships DW on a bootable DVD that will boot Mac running Snow Leopard or earlier. He cannot start Mac that came with Lion or later preinstalled, however, DW will work on these models.

  Suggestions for OS X maintenance

  OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are supposed to take place on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Maintenance scripts that are run at the beginning AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep). If this isn't the case, then a great solution is to download and install a shareware like Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacronor Anacron utility that will automate the maintenance regardless of whether activity if the computer is off or asleep.  Dependence on third-party utilities to run periodic maintenance scripts has been significantly reduced since Tiger.  These utilities have little or no functionality with Snow Leopard or later version, and must not be installed.

  OS X automatically defrags files smaller than 20 MB in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files it little need to defragment the hard drive.

  Under no circumstances should you install operating MacPaw or ZeoBit software (CleanMyMac/CleanMyDrive or Mac Keeper, respectively.) You don't need special software to keep your computer.

  The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.

  Difficulty a few pop ups browser that supported Safari

  Common pop - ups include a message saying that the Government has taken over your computer and you pay release (often called "Moneypak"), or a false message saying that your computer has been infected and you need to call a number of tech support (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it to be resolved. First of all, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and that your computer has not been assigned. This "hack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so don't pay not money, call number, or provide personal information. This article will give an overview of the solution to remove the pop-up window.

  Quit Safari

  Usually, these pop-ups will not go by clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel '. In addition, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in grey, including the option to leave Safari. You'll probably force quit Safari. To do this, press command + option + ESC, select Safari, press on force quit.

  Relaunch Safari

  If you restart Safari, the page will reopen. To avoid this, hold the "Shift" key when opening Safari. This will prevent windows since the last time that Safari was running since the reopening.

  It will not work in all cases. The SHIFT key must be maintained at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window is displayed again. In these circumstances, after force quit Safari, turn off Wi - Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then restart Safari normally. He'll try to reload the malicious Web page, but without a connection, it will not be able to. Leave this page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com and try to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet and the page that you entered is displayed rather than the malicious.

  An excellent link to read is Tom Reed Mac Guide of malicious programs.

  If you need antivirus protection Thomas Reed recommends to use ClamXAV. (Thanks to Thomas Reed to this recommendation.)

  The user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:

  The facts are:

  1. There is no anti-malware software can detect 100% of malware out there.

  2. There is no anti-malware that can detect all targeting the Mac.

  3. the best way to prevent breaches the most is for you as the user is aware that

  the most successful malware attacks rely on sophisticated social engineering

  techniques preying on human greed, * and fear.

  4 Internet pop-up windows telling the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on

  your computer is designed to trick you into installing their malware thinking it's a

  protection against malware.

  5. some of the anti-malware market products are worse than malware

  go where they are supposed to protect you.

  6. be careful where you go on the internet.

  7. don't download anything from sites, you know are safe.

  8 avoid links that you receive in email, always be wary, even if you get something

  you think a friend is, but that you did not expect.

  9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume that it is malware.

  Troubleshooting Applications

  I recommend that you download a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX, Mavericks Cache Cleaneror hiding a Cocktail that you can use to delete the former newspapers and archives, cleaning, etc. Corrupted cache, logs or temporary files can slow down the application or OS X crashes and panics of the kernel.

  If you have leopard snow or leopard, then for similar repairs install Applejackfreeware utility.  If you do not start in OS X, you can boot into single-user mode , where you can run Applejack to make a set of routines for repair and maintenance of the command line.  Note that it takes 1.5 AppleJack for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. Applejack does not work with Lion and later versions.

  Basic backup

  For some people, Time Machine will be more than enough. Time Machine is part of Mac OS X. There are two components:

  1. a panel of Time Machine preferences as part of the system of preferences;

  2. a request for Time Machine, located in the Applications folder. It's

  used to manage backups and restore backups. Time Machine

  requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the

  drive being backed up.

  You can also get an external drive at least equal to the size hard disk internal and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the disk utility's restore option. You can also create and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (the order is not significant):

  1 Carbon Copy clone

  2. get backup

  3 already seen

  4 superDuper!

  5. Synk Pro

  6. Tri-Backup

  Visit The FAQ XLab and read the FAQ on the backup and restore.  Also read How to back up and restore your files. For using Time Machine, visit FAQ Time Machine of Pondini for help with all this time Machine.

  Referenced software can be found at MacUpdate .

  Additional tips

  Make sure you have a sufficient amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run simultaneously. Make sure to leave a minimum of 10% of the capacity of the hard disk as free space.

  Add more RAM. If your computer less than 2 GB of RAM and you use OS X Leopard or later, then you can do it with more RAM. Snow Leopard and Lion works much better with 4 GB of RAM that is their system. Most concurrent applications, that you tend to use the more RAM you should have.

  Always have at least 15 GB, or 10% of the capacity of your hard disk as free space, the largest. OS X frequently accesses your hard disk, so offering enough free space will keep things slow down.

  Check for applications that may be hogging the CPU:

  Before Mavericks

  Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the drop process .  Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

  Mavericks and later versions

  Open the activity monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select all processes in the menu display .  Click the CPU tab in the toolbar. Click the % CPU column heading twice to display in descending order.  If find you a process that uses a large amount of time processor (> = 70,) then select the process, and then click the quit icon in the toolbar.  Click the force quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Don't forget to mention the name of the runaway process, so you can find the cause of the problem.

  This problem occurs often because of a corrupted cache or the preferences file or an attempt to write in a corrupted log file.

• Change the appearance of the windows of the inactive VI

  Hello!

  I'm working on a software that called screw under different and they all open as new windows in front of the main one. The problem is that these windows are usually smaller than the original VI and the amount of orders that you see on the screen is sometimes a bit boring. You would see the VI parent on the region covering the new window. I want to do is to have the parent VI change its brightness or perhaps have a "fog effect" on it so that attracts your attention is the currently active VI. I apologise for the confused explanation, but I don't know how to make me "understandable." I found an article that explains how to change the background color of the VI, however, I have an image as the background of the application, so the color change will have no effect. What I want is something similar to what happens when Windows Vista asks you administrator rights to perform an action, if all remaining screen gets darker and brings attention to the dialog box.

  Thanks in advance for the help!

  Kind regards

  Hello!

  First of all, thanks a lot for your quick help. Unfortunately, I am running LabVIEW 7, so I couldn't find the integrated function of transparency. I checked the tst library and used its transparency Subvi on the inactive window whenever a new window opens.

  I made a few changes to add comments of my research on MSDN about the functions used, so in case anyone feels helpul, here the VI.

  I appreciate the contribution of all.

• Development of some boxes to check buttons or radio system are not visible

  Hello

  I have a problem while UI-programming:

  On my severel window controls, some of them are system check boxes. Each of them should get the orientation main while tabbing through them.

  Now the problem: one of them obviously does not show focus.

  See the following pictures:

  

  Did I miss an option to hide the focus?

  I became ornaments on it and experiment a little. Newly inserted checkboxes work how expected, but if I replace the box against an option button, it is not also see the update.

  Once the code changes the focus programmatically, the focus begins to work how it is planned, but why is that happening?

  If the box is a layer on top of the listbox and the listbox control is in the background (the lowest layer of the focusable objects), then the box is not able to display it is focus state, but only if the tab moves the focus directly from the list box to the box. Thus, if the listbox is the foreground object and other controls (checkbox, radio button,...) behind him, then it works. Moreover, the listbox control displays always the focus correctly, or if the button is enabled all of the controls are functioning as intended.

  Thanks to Norbert_B for bringing me on the right track.

  Someone at - it an idea what causes this focus problem? Maybe it's a bug in the Qt code? If this isn't the case, I'll mark this message as a response.

  See you soon,.

• No printer in the print, only icon in the "Add printer" Wizard dialog box

  Windows XP Professional - Version 2002 - Service Pack 3

  What would cause the print dialog box does not show printer, only the icon of the Add Printer Wizard?

  This occurs in only one (Eclipse) application on the PC.

  There are 20 printers in printers and faxes.

  I can not completely through the Add Printer Wizard and it will be case add a printer and/or set as default, if specified printer.

  However, the print dialog box displays always no printer.

  7 developers here, 2 have Windows XP, with the rest on Windows 7.

  Only two XP machines have this problem with this particular application.

  Windows 7 machines have the same version of the same application, but the print dialog box normally works for them.

  If I understand you correctly, everything works fine except the print in a particular application dialog box.  If this is the case, then maybe you should ask the promoters of this request for help/comment.

  Otherwise, given that the problem seems to be in the interaction between a particular application and a few Windows print API (probably the Print spooler API), you will be much more likely to find competent people to MSDN or TechNet.  Unfortunately, given that XP is on its way, it has only a single forum TechNet for XP but there is a Vista printing forum who may be of assistance.

  The Windows printing team blog seems to have been inactive for a while.
