• another computer on your network is using your computer - Hack suspicion - ip address through DHCP lease renewal. Help, please

  Hello fellow Mac users...

  Today, while using, Firefox A message appeared on my screen: another computer on your network is using the ip address of your computer.

  Now, I am 100% sure that my phone was turned off when it happened. And I have a password on my wifi connection.

  I panicked because no one should have access to my network or my IP address. Immediately, I turned off my modem and turned off the wifi on my mac.

  Later, I went to renew the DHCP lease.

  My question is this:

  Could it be, in theory, based on the message system I (another computer on your network is using the ip address of your computer) the IP address was stolen (for lack of a better word) by a remote user, which is not in my physical neighborhood that is resident in another city or even country?

  If so, then I did the right thing by closing my Modem? And later on the DHCP lease renewal? About 20-30 minutes past until what I actually renewed the DHCP lease. It, in theory, could have too late to do (assuming that a malicious user has chosen to masquerade himself with my IP address)?

  Thank you all very much!

• Writes a text file from a network computer to another computer on the network.

  It is possible to write a text file from a computer on the network to another computer on the network through labview without using FTP?

  Hi bebo_lm,

  It depends on how they are connected. If you have a 'normal' access to the pc and you can write on a hard drive of the other computer, you can use the writing functions of files or the copy of the file. If they are not connected like this, then you need another service. Why you do not use FTP?

  3. When do you have this error code or error message?

  The computer has detected in the network may be the other that you have, you will need to check the network and check the name of the computer. I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

  Method 1:

  a. Click Start. Type cmd in the search box and press ENTER.

  b. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
  ipconfig/all (there is a space between ipconfig and /)
  The command ipconfig/all command displays for all your network adapters, TCP/IP in Windows settings.

  c. enough at the command prompt ipconfig and press ENTER. This frees up your current IP address.

  d. ipconfig / renew in command prompt and press ENTER.

  The DHCP configuration for all adapters is renewed. To renew the IP address for a
  specific adapter, type the name of the map that appears when you type ipconfig at the command prompt.

• another computer on my network has the same IP as my computer

  Hi - I started my laptop computer and received the message saying that above, and that Windows has detected an IP address conflict.

  What does that mean?  Someone else is using my WiFi signal?  What should I do to solve it?
  Thank you

• Windows 7 - error message from the address conflict IP appears periodically. Error message "another computer on the network has the same IP address as this computer.

  Error message "another computer on the network has the same IP address as this computer. Contact you network administrator for help resolving this issue. More details are available in the Windows system event log"

  Does anyone have a simple way (for a dummy) to solve this. If I disconnect my wireless router and laptop and turn the two again this sorts the problem temporarily, but it does not provide a definitive solution.  I use a new laptop and my old one has been scrapped, so I do not know whence this 'conflict '.  My old laptop had Windows XP operating system and my new Windows 7.  I hope that someone can provide a solution to this annoying problem.

• error message says "another computer on the network has the same IP address.

  can interfere with my internet connection.  How can I fix this (plain English please.  "I'm not a COMPUTER expert.)

  This means that you have two devices with the same IP address on your network. It simply means that two machines are configured with the same IP address (you have a PS3, XBox360, another computer/laptop?).

  Each device needs a unique IP address works properly on a network. A reboot will usually solve the problem, unless both devices have their IP address a static address.

  Here's how you check/change it (Windows XP):

  1. click on START > network and Internet > network connections.
  2. double-click on your connection LAN or Internet.
  3. click on properties.
  4. click on the general tab.
  5. Select Protocol Internet (TCP/IP), and then click Properties.
  6. click on the general tab.
  7. select Obtain IP address automatically and DNS server automatically get an address.
  8 OK on all windows and when you are back on the desktop, restart your system.

• You can cancel the sync with another computer on a network?

  My desttop computer was set to automatically sync with a folder and its subfolders on another office in a network.  The purpose of the sync has been backup.  Today, the other computer had a malfunction serious and removed about 20 subfolders. The removal was detected immediately. I checked and found that missing subfolders were on my computer. BUT (I'M A FOOL!) I failed to realize that my computer was still periodically synchronize with the computer 'bad '. Suddenly, after about 10 minutes, subfolders missing from the 'bad' computer have now disappeared from mine as well! Immediately, I went to offline and off the synchronization mode once the horse was out of the barn.

  Is it possible to cancel fatal synchronization that deleted synched subfolders? -Can I somehow recover subfolders that had been so easily available on my computer?

  Yes, you can stop the clock, but no, you cannot cancel it (unless you have a backup of the files stored elsewhere).  You will need to retrieve the files and folders by using shadow copies (if you have one) or with the recovery software from 3rd party (see below for more details).

  If you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky.  They have so-called saves shadow copies, which are deleted or modified files that can be recovered in case changes/deletions made by mistake.  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx more information about how to use this feature to: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/howdoi/?p=145.

  If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, shadow copies is not available; However, there is an alternative that is free and the shadow copies feature called Shadow Explorer. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/recover-files-with-shadow-copies-on-any-version-of-windows-vista/.  Although it will not help you this time, it could very well save you in case this happens again.

  In case this does not work (not all files are available through shadow - it occurs periodically), here are some additional free recovery programs that might help:

  http://techpaul.WordPress.com/2008/06/23/how-to-recover-your-lost-files/

  The files are not really deleted until they are crushed (although they are no longer available through conventional methods).  If you decide to try these recovery programs, you should stop using your drive hard immediately in order not to replace the data that you are trying to recover.  He slave on another PC and launch the recovery of this PC.  Even now you have definitely lost some of them if you use the same PC.  If you can not do this (slave on another PC), you run the risk of overwriting the data with every action you do on the PC (but you may still be able to recover some or most or even all files - it's a matter of luck).

  Only you can decide if the data is important enough to take the PC to an expert data recovery to recover files (they will have better programs and hardware to do that none of us do, and I've provided above).  Do NOT go to the Geek Squad or one of these centers of store-, they generally don't know what they are doing - it take for expert data recovery.  It will cost you a little and they generally offer no guarantees.  The decision is yours.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• Start another computer on the network when it is in "standby"

  I would like to have a computer on our network to wake up another computer that is in sleep when the first computer tries to access files shared asleep computer. Is this possible?

  It is possible, but it is quite an advanced task.  If I understand correctly, it requires that computers be using network LAN cables, no wifi.

  A limited intro is available here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/What-are-Wake-on-LAN-capabilities

  But basically, it varies widely depending on your hardware, the system chipset and network equipment.

• We have Adobe Acrobat Pro DC loaded on a computer, and I want to share with another computer over the network.  Must I pay $ 120 to get the serial number?

  Is it really necessary to pay for another FULL of Adobe Acrobat Pro DC version so it can be used on another computer?   Even if we are on a network.

  As far as I know, Adobe programs are not running on a network... If you have computers A and B, and the program is on A, it cannot be run on B on the network, it must be installed on B to work
