New to the family, a few Qs

Hello

Just joined the x 51 family and I have a few Questions that I hope some can help you with.

First Question, is my X 51 a r1 or r2, how do you know?

I enter the serial number and it says x 51 but says not r1/r2

If I have an r1, it says memory max supported for r1 is 8 gb, but I added 16 GB without problem.

My cpu is 3770

What is the latest version of the bios updated?

I am currently on A14

All tips/tricks etc I should know to get the most out of my system?

Thanks in advance

Hello and welcome to the community of Alienware,

You have an Alienware X 51 R1. Since this is the first revision, the Dell support site lists with just the name of the model (Alienware X 51). If you have a processor IvyBridge , memory maximum support is 16 GB. Maximum support for SandyBridge processor, memory is 8GB. The I7-3770 is a processor of IvyBridge. The latest version of Bios is the A14, so you don't have to date.

  • New to the Canon family

    Hello

    I am new to the family of canon, I bought the Canon rebel t5 with the kit with 18-55mm lens. I read the manuals and the tutorals video on the canon Web site. I bought the camera as a hobby and to capture family memories. I'm small looking more tips that aren't on the manuals and video tutorials, I would like to take pictures at a basketball game, but understand it would be difficult with the game until you have. Y at - it advice or suggestions to get the best out of the establishment I have without purchasing new equipment until I'm comfortable with the set - up that I currently have?

    Thank you

    The Rebel series is entry level Canon DSLR product online, and the T5 is a less recommended rebel. It costs a tenth of the lighthouse 1DX, then of course there are compromises. It is certainly not a terrible DSLR.

    For family events, travel, landscapes, he is certainly capable. Action at high speed and low light will be a challenge.

  • Security for the family of the Blocked Sites

  • adding the new safety device for the family

    Dear all, I recently bought a new pc W8 for my 12 year old son.  When I added the user account for the new pc, I clicked on the box to indicate that he is a child and accessible account parental to ensure that all of the boxes on the right were clicked.  However the new pc does not appear as a device on familysafety.microsoft.com, and I have not received a weekly e-mail, giving me details about its activities on the new pc.  Family safety continues to operate while on his phone w8, on my laptop w8 (on which he is a user).  What I am doing wrong?  Thank you

    Hi frednell,

    Thanks for posting to the Microsoft Community. I understand that the child on the new computer account does not appear in the Family Safety website. To resolve this problem, make sure that the parent e-mail account is defined as an administrator on the Windows 8 of the child computer. After that, please follow the steps below on how to properly manage the settings on the Family Safety website:

    1. On the start screen, type parental controls.
    2. Click settings.
    3. Click the parental control .
    4. In the lower part of the window, click Manage settings on the Family Safety website. Your default browser will be directed to the Family Safety website.
    5. Sign in using the parent account.

    Let us know how things will go.

    Kind regards.

  • A new version of the parental control is available. We recommend that you update the PC of each Member of the family.

    When I connect to the Windows Live Family Safety website, it shows the opinion (in the title above) recommended that I upgrade to a newer version.  Next to this notice there is a link that says... 'install and set up parental controls'.  When I click on it to try to upgrade to a new version, need me a Windows Essentials page where it says nothing about an update.

    An attempt to update, I clicked on the symbol "Refresh" in the upper right corner of the programs parental control on each of the monitored computers, and all say they are refreshed and updated.  What is going on?  Why he continues to say that they all need new versions?

    PS. I am running Windows XP and control parental version 14.0.8118.0427.

    Hi Placebo12,

    We are happy to assist you with your concern. I understand that you wonder why the message shows up on the Family Safety website.

    The notice comes when it detects an older version of the parental controls installed on your computer. The latest version should be 15.4.3555.0308 for the 2011 version and 16.4.3505.0912 for the 2012 version. Since you're using the 14.0.8118.0427 build that is the 2009 version of the parental control, the site detects it as obsolete. Please note that the only Essentials 2009 version can be installed on Windows XP.

    If in the cases, it affects services and parental control functions, please let us know if we can help you.

    Thank you!

  • The new XP installation error. The signature for the family Windows XP Setup is not valid. The error code is fffffc0d

    I'm doing a fresh install of Windows XP Edition family on a new hard drive.  I get the same error message indicating that the product catalog can not be installed.

  • added to the family sharing with strangers

    I received a notification on my iPhone that I had been added to the family sharing and just assumed that it was an announcement of a new feature of Apple. Shortly after, I received a notification that a name I didn't recognize left my family. I went into my settings and saw that I was on a list with a few people at random. I left the band and changed my password to iCloud. No idea how it happened, or if I need to worry about what anyone?

    Welcome to the Apple community.

    Unless you accept an invitation to join the family sharing, the administrator had to know your password for to add you themselves. If that's what happened, and you don't really know these people, then you must immediately change your password.

    Of course, it is possible that someone invited you by mistake.

  • Unable to accept the terms of use, which is needed to manage the security of the family

    Hello

    I have a new laptop with Windows 8, which I created two users - one for me and one for a child (Standard user - and Coachman on behalf of child) (Administrator). I created a real account for the child and filled out all the necessary information - my live account has been used for a few years, but I update personal information.

    When I try to manage parental controls from the Control Panel, I get an error message indicating that I should go to account.live.com to agree to terms of use. I can't find any place to accept the terms of use, or my account og the child account. I looked for a solution and found that many have had similar problems. One of the solutions that seeems to help was to connect to fss.live.com, but this page just redirects to a generic MS information page of security for the family.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks for the quick response!

    I managed to find a solution, not an elegant solution, but it will keep your real account (parent1) to monitor your kids.

    1. create a new live account (parent2)
    2. create a new account admin on the PC using the new live account (parent2)
    3. connect to the computer with the admin account and create an account for child
    (using either an og existing live new account - don't forget to check the child...)
    4. you should now be able to manage via the parental control panel
    5. Add a new parent in parental control (your old existing live account - parent1)
    Some steps are probably not necessary, but I managed to get the "accept the terms of use" hampers by following these steps.

  • Problem with the connection to the family while security account set up parental control error 'wrong name or password '.

    Hi all, I strive to security for the family of installation for my PC, we have both sons have windows 7 on our PC. I downloaded the form MS Essentials Web site and installed on two PCs. I am admin on two PCs and it is standard user on both.

    I click on his user name in the user section and click on parental control settings, then I put my hotmail and password in the popup box and it says wrong name or password. I can't connect to the webmail for my Hotmail with the same name of user and password no problem at all.

    I tried a few different approaches all amounting to nothing. Connected to my web mail and password reset, got a new password and then tried, still nothing. I have searched here and elsewhere but can't seem to find anything like that. Sorry if its there, I maybe correct search terms are not used.

    Help, support or advice would be great.

    WITHOUT parental controls in the product lose ALSO down below, so had to post it in Live mail, but I only have problems of security for the family.

    Also as a side note, I can also connect my 360 desktop with my same Hotmail and password account.

    Concerning

    Wayne

    NO parental controls in the product drop-down below,

    No, they did a great job of hiding in the right place in their irrational enthusiasm to eliminate any reference to Windows Live. I moved your question correctly

    Then I put my hotmail and password in the popup box and it says wrong name or password. I can't connect to the webmail for my Hotmail with the same name of user and password no problem at all.

    You have probably enabled two-step verification to the account when you have changed the password. This means that you will need to generate a unique password app to use safe family rather than the account password.

    We have just upgraded our iphones and want to leave our children are our 'old' to use wifi, how we've set up this family action, I do not know true with itunes because I use my iphone for work, e-mail and phone calls. Thanks for any help.

    There is some info on the family share on these pages: http://www.apple.com/icloud/family-sharing/

    and family shares - Apple Support

    With the sharing of the family, a person is the family Organizer, this person should have a valid payment method (e.g. credit card) on his iTunes account because they will take the responsibility of all members of the family purchases (Member, not an organizer, will use a balance on their account if they have one, otherwise the Organizer map will be used for purchases).

    Depending on the age of the children, you can activate 'request to buy' so that you have to approve any new element (app, song, etc.) they want to download: ask and make purchases with Ask to buy - Apple Support

    Hello evechoccy!

    Thanks for reaching out on the share of the family option does not arise with the iPhone of your son 4.

    The reason for this is the iPhone 4 can only go to iOS 7 and sharing of the family did not become an option until iOS 8 and later versions. You can see the family sharing requirements here: family shares - Apple Support
