Hi Tinkerbellfancolorado,
- When is this last work fine?
- Do you receive an error message or error codes?
- Recent changes on the computer?
There could be several causes for this problem.
Try starting with these methods.
Method 1
Step 1
- Open Network Diagnostics by right-clicking the network icon in the notification area, and then click diagnose and repair.
- Make sure that all cables are connected (for example, make sure that your modem is connected to a working jack or cable phone connection, either directly or through a router).
- Reset your modem and router. Remove the power cord from the modem or router, wait at least 10 seconds, then plug in the modem and/or router back.
Step 2
Another reason may be windows disable your network adapter to save power. Turn off the power saving option in the properties of the network (wired network only cards) card:
- Open network connections by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking network and Internet, click network and sharing Center, and then clicking manage network connections.
- Right-click on the connection and then click Properties. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
- On the Networking tab, click Configure.
- On the power management tab, clear the allow the computer to turn off this device to save power option, and then click OK.

Method 2

Windows Vista restore
My phone fell, and I can not get Windows to start. The repair option will not work. I tried to use an upgrade disc, but the 'upgrade' function has been disabled. It says I have to do it from the office, to which I can not access. The repair disk feature did not work either. Is it possible to restore the system without losing my files?Have you had your laptop, checked by a technician?
If you use a 32 bit Vista copy then any upgrade must be run from the Vista desktop.

Flash Player pop up box "requesting permission to store information on my computer" does not and will not disappear. How can I get rid of him. It is most annoying that there is in the middle of the screen.
Move the cursor over the video. Right-click. Click on settings, click on the box "don't ask again". And then click Close. This will work.
For some reason, always worked for me, but in the last two days, it does not work, and it seems to freeze on the

old photos will not disappear - 2nd generation ATV
2nd generation Apple TV
Model number: MC572LL/A
Version: 6.2.1
I work in a marketing agency that uses two Apple TV in the hall to showcase some of our work as a screensaver constantly loop... and I am responsible to keep them up-to-date.
Until I can convince management that it is time to move to the new Apple TV, we're stuck with the 2nd generation... who have not been very cooperative since replaced Photos iPhoto, however well long ago that was.
Here's my question:
Several old and outdated photos only will not disappear, including (but not limited to) several slides celebrate the 35th anniversary of the company (which was in 2015) and a few promotional pieces for a customer who have employees who work don't are more there (we were specifically asked to remove these parts). As you can probably guess, these are not good things for clients to see when they come to our office.
I deleted the photos of Photos on our Mac (under the last El Capitan). I have reset the Apple TV. I have reset the connection home sharing on both ends. I disconnected and then reconnected to iCloud... once again, on both ends (the two ends being the ATV and the Mac).
I have not been able to get something new to show lately, either, but my main concern right now is to remove the old stuff.
Am I on?
Photos of the screen saver are temporarily cached, you can go into the settings - screen saver to set a new batch of pictures.

Sansa fuze will not play and flashes pink message
I love this player the "rocket" 4 GB, better than the 260e I used to have. But I had only used 1 hour when he stopped playing and flashed a box pink with black letters. "Synchronize to continue your music subscription" which is strange, because all music has been downloaded out of my cd personal message does not disappear, and the player will not play. Any help.
How do rip you the CD? If you have used Windows Media Player, the default settings create protected WMA files.
Also, you should post topics related to the rocket on the plateau of the rocket. -Moved to the Fuze forum -µ

Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.
Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.
This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:
This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded: run DriverView - set
SEE drivers to hide Microsoft - update those with Dump in their names. (Also
updated the BIOS and drivers from the chipset on the site of the constructor/the system motherboard).-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded
on your system. For each driver in the list, additional useful information is
Poster: load address of the driver, description, version, product name,.
company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.htmlFor drivers, visit Maker as replacements and system manufacturer of device which are
the most recent. Control Panel - write - graphics card - device manager
the brand and complete model of your video card - double click - tab of the driver-
Note the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing
MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
This will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard
If there are 3rd party with their own software and drivers and the other main device drivers
you have.Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restore)
and site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get the manufacturer and device
their latest versions. (Look for the system to update the BIOS, Chipset and software updates
Site of the manufacturer here.)Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN -.
REBOOT after each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you are
installation actually appears. This is because that some rollback of drivers before the
later is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot.
Make sure that it is installed and repeat if necessary.Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW to the device makers DO NOT RUN THEIR
SCANNER - check manually by model.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
