Inspiron i5559 - three Questions

I bought a Dell i5559-3347SLV. It's a laptop 15.6 "Inspiron, illustrated here: officedepot.com/.../Dell-Inspiron-15-Laptop-156- screen / I've had it for a week, and I almost like him for what it for what I use it for. I looked at the manual time and the maintenance manual, but I have still three questions:

(1) when I close the lid, I noticed that it does not completely close flower on the left side and partial left front. There is a 3/16 "to 1/4" gap (credit nearly two cards can keep out), while the right side closes quite SHORT. If I run my hand (not a lot of pressure) from the back to the front of the left side of the cover when it is 'closed', the gap goes and lid together is nice and SHORT. I don't know if it is an exchange value for another laptop of the same model or not. I think that the left hinge is just a little more tight than necessary. Any opinions?

(2) the machine will start with the number lock off the coast. I didn't go into the BIOS to see if I can change the value by default, yet. However, when I press the NumLock key to activate the numeric keypad, I see no Fn key light up to indicate that it is. The only thing that indicates that it is is in the area of hidden icons, for which you must click to enlarge, and then if the NUMLOCK is turned on, it contains a square box with the number "9". Who wants to have to go through that to see if NUMLOCK is turned on?

(3) should the power button, which is round with a translucent vertical stripe, dividing it into two, light when when it is powered on, or turn in dormant or mode orange screen saver?

TIA

If #1 is annoying, have the system replaced - in particular if the hinge shows a sign of liaison.

#2 and #3, there is no LED to indicate the State of num lock, nor is it a light power button - the only LED on these is on the front edge of the system (indicates the State of charge).  It has no HDD LED on them, either.

#1, not binding, but think I'll exchange due to cosmetics

#2, thank you for all that

#3, found the BIOS was set ON NumLock as a default, however, I turned off and then back ON, but still no luck. I will focus

Thanks again.

I exchanged for another laptop (same model) yesterday.  It closes perfectly FLUSH.  I can say about this news that the hinge (s) was too tight on the first.  On this new one, when I close the lid, it is steep until the last inch or more, and then he shut the rest of the way by himself.  With the first, I had to push it shut all the way and then some.

It's my laptop 13 years (9 Dells), and they all closed RAS.  I wonder why I even asked for it.

NumLock on this second laptop seems to work (remains enabled throughout of MESSAGES).

Thanks for the reply.

    Hello

    I'm going through an eval of view and three questions came so he was working on an external access via the Security server in our DMZ.

    1. with the help of this article: VMware KB: guidelines for the production and importation of a SSL certificate for the view view connection Server 5.0.1... I bought a certificate from an external certification authority (Thawte) and imported into the keystore on the Security server.  I created the file locked.properties in C:\Program VMware View\Server\sslgateway\conf.  After the reboot of the Security Server, it always seems to use its self-signed certificate.  Are there any other missing stage of this document?  I stumbled upon the blog of a guy who runs it without keytool, and one of its not said that the friendly name on the cert should be vdm... don't know if this is specific to its environment, or a requirement of VMWare.

    2. I was able to connect to the customer external Horizon once recognizing that certificate signed by the self was not reliable.  However if I boot a desktop computer from the pool of bound using PCoIP clone it does not connect.  Looks like it connects (the screen goes black and I get the bar of high control of the screen, but then it closes and I get a message saying "' the connection to the remote computer has finished".  I guess it's a firewall issue, and I watched http://blogs.vmware.com/consulting/files/2014/06/Horizon-6-Firewall-3.png and Ports UDP and TCP of the view.  I'm fairly certain that I had all of them.  For PCoIP, is all that I need to open TCP/UDP 4172 external in the Security Server and the server safe for virtual desktops?

    3. If I change the Protocol Microsoft RDP, the work of connection from the outside, but I get a permissions error when it starts to connect to the desktop computer saying that I must be in the remote desktop users group.  I am able to connect to the same mass of Clone bound since an internal machine using the same credentials if.  Is there something different about how the bureau is launching externally vs. in-house?

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    1. the friendly name of the certificate must be "vdm".

    This is how see selects the right certificate.

    2 how get a black screen when you connect, is almost always a firewall problem. Apart from rules, check that you have correctly configured the public url. in the administration page under view-> server configuration.

  • Three Questions from beginner to Captivate 3

    Adobe Captivate 3.

    I have three questions from beginner to Adobe Captivate 3.

    1. I noticed that CP3 only creates SWF files.  Why not offer the possibility to create an FLV file in the final product?  What is the difference between a SWF file and a FLV?

    2. I want my finished product for a single slide with a picture in the background and some areas of reversal.  It seems that no matter what I do, the blade is not fixed, but faints and disappears after the default time of 3.3 seconds.  How can I achieve making the slide remains in place, not disappear, and behave as I want?

    3. I want to do a slide that has a video autoplay Flash on it (this part I know how to do), but I want the slide to move to another slide specified when the video ends, without user action.  How can I do?

    Thanks to anyone who can help me on these issues.

    CP3 does not FLV because it was not part of the specification for CP3. I don't know why it is like that. Maybe the Captivate development team knows for sure. In any case, Captivate 5 was recently released. If the point is little questionable, right?

    Regarding the second part of this question, SWF can have interactivity such as bearings or clickable areas or buttons that perform different actions. FLV is usually just a video, just like a DVD movie that you watch passively, and you do not participate.

    2. I want my finished product for a single slide with a picture in the background and some areas of reversal.  It seems that no matter what I do, the blade is not fixed, but faints and disappears after the default time of 3.3 seconds.  How can I achieve making the slide remains in place, not disappear, and behave as I want.

    You can get there. Just insert a click box and time it so it suspends the slide at the right time.

    3. I want to do a slide that has a video autoplay Flash on it (this part I know how to do), but I want the slide to move to another slide specified when the video ends, without user action.  How can I do?

    So now you change course on us? You said to question 2 you want the finished product is a single slide! This is perhaps another project, you're talking about.

    If you examine the properties of the slide, you will discover a labeled area of Navigation. Using this box, you can choose to navigate to another slide when it finishes playing.

  • Dell Inspiron One HDMI question

    I have an Inspiron One 2320.  I tried to connect a TV as a second monitor.  To my surprise, the computer's HDMI port is a HDMI input port.  Am I reading correctly?  Can someone please help me and confirm that I can't use the HDMI port to connect to the TV?

    If it is in fact a HDMI input, what is - this really for?  What devices that require an HDMI port to send the signal to the computer.

    I am so confuse with it, and why even do a HDMI input and not a HDMI output?

    Thanks in advance

    I have an Inspiron One 2330 Touch.

    Other features include an HDMI port... A HDMI-IN port. It would be something like a Blu - Ray player, cable box or DVR amp HDMI out, Tablet... something like that... like the Inspiron is a simple monitor or HDTV.

    I was also surprised that the video output was only a VGA 15 pins. Maybe the next model will have a DVI output. At least this way, either natively or with a converter inexpensive... you can drive DVI, VGA or HDMI even (with no sound). DisplayPort is a versatile alternative.

    In your case... If your template does not output a VGA (or your second monitor is not a VGA input)... you should be able to get a "USB video card.

  • three questions on DMP4400 + DMM5. 2

    Hi all

    I did 3 issues for the system in question,

    (1) "play in the future" does not, the java machine installed and updated, but it's in another language in the browser, can that be a problem?

    (2) to display on the screen via the DMP GHTS, I need to download with FTP, using the Manager of the DMP - I need to select an Action for the

    Download FTP and then the DMP restarts. but the downloaded content (presentation or playlist stored in/tmp/usb_1) is not displayed automatically, I have to

    Select another Action "(aller à) the URL", then select the LOCAL-presentation/playlist and computer starts playing. "

    is there a way to automatically display the content downloaded immediately after reboot?

    ((3) like I said on 2) is the only way I found to display the content on the DPM download, because if I try to 'Play now' a playlist in the Calendar menu, nothing happens. I select "digital signage" of the same type Sytem, then I select the playlist/presentation to view and submit.

    but nothing happens.

    can it be linked to the lack of WAAS and CNSE services?

  • DELL INSPIRON N4010 WEBCAM QUESTIONS: PLEASE HELP... DELL CUSTOMER... AND ANYONE WHO HAS KNOWLEDGE REGARDING MY PROBLEMS...

    I have a Dell Inspiron N4010. Configuration: 1st generation i5 processor with windows 7 home basic 64-bit.

    3 months after the purchase of my laptop, I have updated my Dell webcam central through the applications update service... Shortly after the update, my integrated webcam has started to show problems.

    DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM:

    Shortly after the update of my installed factory Dell webcam central, my integrated webcam has begun to show the problem. webcam was able to start with any application such as Skype or dell central webcam himself. Instead, webcam LED flashes for flicker of a second, and then goes away without any streaming video.  Trying to open it, an error message is displayed: "your webcam can be used by another application. Close the application to launch streaming video".» Initially, the problem was temporary, that is occasionally the webcam began video streaming without any problem, but as the time passed, webcam stopped working almost completely.

    TRIED SOLUTIONS:

    I tried all the solutions mentioned below:

    • I uninstalled the Dell webcam software and reinstalled with the version installed in the factory, supplied on CD with laptop. Uninstalled the webcam via the Device Manager and reinstalled, but without success.
    • I heard that there is a conflict between the Dell face recognition software and dell webcam central. So, I uninstalled the dell face recognition software. After that, the webcam worked for a few days, and there still rebooted problem.
    • I went through various forums online, dell community, customer service, etc. and everything suggested tried but without success. I heard several times that this is not a hardware fault but driver error. Even in a few forums, its says that Creative Technology Limited have not been able to supply webcam drivers compatible with windows 7 64-bit.
    • I even did factory restore my laptop twice, but could not do my webcam works.
    • Then, I decided to format my system and installed windows7 again with the disc that came with my laptop. During this process, I have kept the recovery drive and the untouched OEM disk untouched. I have reinstalled all the drivers in such order as advised by Dell. Despite puts everything in order, I couldn't do my built-in webcam work. More... now I can't even access the Dell factory restore option despite the fact that my recovery disk is intact and it is to have all the files into it!
    • I tried the utility dell online Diagnostics. He could not detect any error webcam!
    • Few days back, I used the dell startup screen diagnostic utility and scanned the built-in webcam to find errors, and my webcam failed in all tests! Here are the screenshots of the tests:

    I GUESS I GAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION THAT CAN HELP TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM WITH MY DELL INTEGRATED WEBCAM... I ASKED DELL CUSTOMER SERVICE TO HELP ME SOLVE MY PROBLEM OF WEBCAM... AND ALSO THE FACTORY RESTORE INACCESSIBILITY PROBLEM... PLEASE HELP ME...

    AFTER AN ENTIRE WEEK OF UNINSTALLING - REINSTALLING VARIOUS DRIVERS & SOFTWARE FOUND IN THESE FORUMS, SUGGESTIONS INCLUDING REINSTALLING WINDOWS FROM DELL DATA SECURE BACKUP.  THIS IS WHAT I LEARNED.

    My problem was. No supported webcam not connected when I ran dell webcam central. No program could access the webcam. Device Manager showed SPECIFIC DEVICE. Camera suddenly stopped working! I had a little more hair when this problem started.

    I have Inspiron N4010 windows 7 Home premium. Are the drivers for the webcam in windows 7, there is no separate drivers available anywhere. with the exception of some XPS models.

    A post in these forums suggests to abolish the plastic around the display bezel. It's simple. Just carefully go around and remove. It is clipped without screws on my system. This gives access to the webcam hardware. I got dell webcam central on-board. (showing no supported webcam connected!). Gently, I tried to disconnect the connector of the webcam. My intention was to disconnect and reconnect. I barely touched and the fire came and windows immediately started to install device drivers. A beep and an icon in the notification bar popped up. A few minutes, I saw my beautiful mug on the screen to my absolute delight.

    Guys, if you have a problem where Device Manager does not recognize your webcam for most probably, this is a hardware problem. The small rectangular plate on which is mounted the webcam is not properly secured by DEll. It is a DESIGN PROBLEM. The Board is located in place on two small round plastic holders without any screws. It can move easily. The bezel plastic when it is installed itself that holds it in place, but not very effective. When you open and close the lid of the screen, especially if you are taking in the middle where the camera you finally loose connector. That's why some messages will tell you what they camera has stopped working suddenly and then started working by himself all of a sudden. When I put the bezel plastic, it snaps into place, I was able to move the camera, and it stopped working again. A little gentle jiggle got running again and its been since.

    It does not matter what version of central webcam you have in windows 7. It runs on windows Vista service pack 2 compatibility mode. (Find WEBCAMDELL2. EXE file under programs x 86-dellwebcam-dellwebcam Central-dell webcam central. Right-click on the file name. Select Properties. Select the Compatibility tab and run this program in compatibility select windows vista service pack 2).

    If in your case even though there might be a software problem. always try this simple 2 minute solution b4 safe spending frustrating days find the drivers and software. Hope this post helps someone. May work on other systems too! Good luck! and thank you to the guy who led me down this path and misery!

  • Three questions about the version of the hardware and VM tools

    Hello

    I have 3 questions about equipment and tools of VM version, can someone help? Thank you in advance.

    1. is the machine hardware version virtual file OVF/EGGS associated with?  OVF/EGGS exported vSphere files contain the virtual hardware version information?

    2. review I have a VM in vSphere 6.0 platform with version 11 of hardware and the latest Tools (cam with ESXi 6.0 U2) VM, I can export to an EGG file, then import it on vSphere 5.1 platform? If can, what version of the target material is VM?

    3. can you vmtools high version with lower vSphere platform? For example, I have a virtual machine with version 11 of material and tools the latest VM (ESXi 6 U2), later I move the 5.1 ESXi virtual computer, should I go down the vmware tools? Is there a compatibility issue?

  • three questions... one parts, compatibility and a procedure

    I think I accidentally posted this in the wrong forum, so will try again here.

    FIRST QUESTION - I have a HP 8408us laptop.  And, although I did not notice before (blush), this laptop has two internal hard drive bays.  Currently, only the original hard drive is plugged into one of the bays (a 80gig SATA) so that the other remains empty drive Bay.  That is the problem.

    The original 80gig SATA drive is held in place by a metal caddy/stand.  But the 2nd Bay is just 'empty' - with no trolley/carrier in place.  And a local geek shop told me that I had to get this carrier caddy if I wanted to install a 2nd SATA drive (which I do).  Could someone please point me to the HP store web page when I can buy this caddy/carrier?  Or, if this caddy/carrier is "generic" for all drives 2.5 "laptop, where a good place to buy one?  My local geek shop does not have on-site.

    SECOND QUESTION - Is my future plan.  I intend to remove the 80gig drive and install a 500gig Western Digital SATA hard drive in the first Bay.  Subsequently, I intend to install a new copy of Windows XP Pro.  The original hard drive currently has Windows XP MCE, which, as I understand it, is simply extra (improved version) Windows XP Pro.  But since I've never used (and never intend to use) MCE bells and whistles, XP Pro will be enough for me.  Is there some incompatabilities I meet by going slightly 'backward' in Windows XP Pro?

    THIRD QUESTION - after I have Windows XP Pro installed on 500gig drive, I intend to replace the 80gig drive in the 2nd drive bay and "format" NTFS only for storage purposes.  But to get Windows XP Pro installed correctly, I'm left with a question.  I know where the HP page is on my 8408us to acquire the proper drivers.  But I don't see any indication on this page that there is a preferred facility 'order '.  In other words, are there instructions that say:

    (1) install this driver first.

    (2) install this driver a second.

    (3) - anything... etc, etc, etc.

    Is there such a page "driver installation order"... or do most people just ' wing it?

    Thanks to all who respond.

    The issues seem to have been answered in another forum:

  • Three Questions on creating attribute extended in ADMN

    We are v6111 in our Production System.  I am trying to create a couple of extended attributes which raises questions:

    1. There are tags to EA that are not explained in the documentation: ERP_Owner, ERP_Owning_Org, Is_ERP_Engineering_Item, Packaging_Height, Packaging_Length, Packaging_Volume, Packaging_Width and Secondary_UOM.  What are these tags.  Where are they documemented?

    2. we need to create an attribute that is a number where the unit of measure is grams or mL as the raw material is a liquid or a solid.  I can't understand how to add volumn as a mass unit of MEASURE for the selections of the environmental assessment.  How is that done?  I can't be the first customer of PLM4P who needs this kind of measure.

    3. we have created a few Global UOMs which are volumn, mass, length, etc. - related.  Include the kilo, per milliliter, ect.  How can we change the classification group of others to where they belong logically with the mass and volume-related?  Still, I can't be the first customer of PLM4P who needs this kind of grouping with UOMs which are not in the base application.

    Thank you. -Beckie

    1. There are tags to EA that are not explained in the documentation: ERP_Owner, ERP_Owning_Org, Is_ERP_Engineering_Item, Packaging_Height, Packaging_Length, Packaging_Volume, Packaging_Width and Secondary_UOM.  What are these tags.  Where are they documemented?

    These are needed for our AIA PIP, they do nothing within the PLM4P of basic app.  Me to consider whether they should be added to the basic version and how they should be documented.

    2. we need to create an attribute that is a number where the unit of measure is grams or mL as the raw material is a liquid or a solid.  I can't understand how to add volumn as a mass unit of MEASURE for the selections of the environmental assessment.  How is that done?  I can't be the first customer of PLM4P who needs this kind of measure.

    We do not allow you to cross the UOM categories because we need to know how to convert the values during the search and rolling the attributes on the formulation.  For example, if you assign to an EE 5 kg on a spec and 5 000 g Spec another when you are looking for all the specifications that contain this EA equivalent to 5 kg both specifications will return.   If you do not need this behavior for a particular EE you can cut the tie the UDM digital creating a digital EA and a qualitative EA that contains the favorite UOMs as choice then appear me in a section.

    3. we have created a few Global UOMs which are volumn, mass, length, etc. - related.  Include the kilo, per milliliter, ect.  How can we change the classification group of others to where they belong logically with the mass and volume-related?  Still, I can't be the first customer of PLM4P who needs this kind of grouping with UOMs which are not in the base application.

    You can update the database directly and add the UOMs.  Support must be able to provide a script if let you them know that you want to add.    Make sure any UOMs you add can be converted to the base UNIT in this category.   For example, base UOM class mass is kg, so all UOMs mass contain a conversion factor to tell the system how to return to the base kg.  That's how we do the conversion that I discussed above as well as others throughout the PLM4P (for a total of theoretical formulation, the search for conversions weight roll up, tare weight roll up etc.).   We hope give you a UI update these lists in ADMIN in a later version.  Just make sure that your conversion factor is true in all scenarios, and you should be good.

    I hope this helps.  Let me know if you have any questions.

  • Three questions about the directory $ORACLE_BASE/admin

    Versions: 10 gr 2, 11g


    Question 1.
    According to FAO, the admin directory must be placed in
    $ORACLE_BASE/admin
    Right?

    Question 2.
    admin directory should contain adump and bdump, cdump, udump directories in the following format.
    $ORACLE_BASE/admin/$ORACLE_SID/bdump
    Right?

    Question 3.
    In addition to adump, bdump, cdump and udump, are there other directories located in the admin folder according to best practices?

    SM_308

    11g has completely reorganized the bdump and udump stuff, you might want to look in the documentation.

    For 10 g 2, that's all right.

    Oracle usually creates the following additional directories

    adump: checks
    pFile: init.ora
    create: creation of database scripts
    dpdump: location of exports datapump

    I usually do the following UNIX

    I have $ORACLE_BASE/admin/bin for generic shell scripts (database independent)
    I have $ORACLE_BASE/admin / $ORACLE_SID/bin for specific database scripts

    My $PATH is adjusted accordingly (in oraenv)

    I have $ORACLE_BASE/admin/sql for generic sql (database independent) scripts
    I have $ORACLE_BASE/admin / $ORACLE_SID/sql for sql database scripts

    My $SQLPATH is adjusted accordingly (in oraenv)
