Sierra is a bomb, need help to return to El Capitan

Could someone more at Apple just try it once to make sure that the "new and improved" operating systems actually work before releasing? With all the money goes to Cupertino, there is no money to hire testers rather than rely on Mac users? Talk about Stockholm syndrome. I'll cut to the Chase, now my computer has been upgraded to Sierra without my knowledge, and several apps are now, not to mention that I can't access my company's server today. How to return to El Capitan - can I save all my work from today and use Time Machine to restore my machine? If this isn't the case, should I really erase everything and start from scratch? Someone please stop me to jump on a ledge, I have work I need to pass on to customers. Any suggestions, help, you can give would be appreciated. Carl

Restore your backup, and if you do not upgrade your Mac, who did? Maybe you should tell them not to do the without you knowledge or approval.

  • Need help moving SL to El Capitan

    Here's the scenario-

    I tried El Cap on an external and everything works fine - apps, etc. I need to update as much as I hate (Firefox and Safari is no longer supported in SL, among other needs).

    I have an iMac that is partitioned - everything is on SL, and the partition of El Cap is OS only - no data or other stuff - essentially Virgin.

    I want to use the migration assistant make SL more to El Cap - all data, user prefs etc, as well as the El Hat will be a 'mirror' of SL as far as it goes. Pretty easy (and Yes, I have 2 backups of SL, including a Super Duper clone I have questions).

    Anyway, and here is the background of the question - the last time I tried this - a few days ago - the El Cap itself folder renamed 'Phil 1' (my SL home folder is "Phil"). So I deleted the partition El Cap and start over. I want the El Cap home folder to be "Phil" and not "Phil 1". Someone me locally to create a test user and rename when I migrate. If this is the case - to create the Test user in SL or El Cap before migrating? Or y at - it an easier alternative? How to make the El Cap folder named what I want?

    I start in El Cap and migrate it to SL? Seems that the only way, unless I'm missing something (?)

    Or by the way - I keep the partition SL and my backups for a while - just in case.

    If you have created an account in El Capitan named 'Phil', then the migrated account will be called "Phil 1" because that the Migration Wizard will not overwrite any existing account with the same name. What you need to do is create a new account named "Test" and make an account Admin connect you to 'Test' and remove your other accounts. Re-emigrate account you want to use named, "Phil." Then connect to "Phil" and delete the "Test".

    A common cause of this is a spyware, Trojan horse or other parasite which means it's time to analyze for all these items. Be sure to include free AVG AntiSpyware in the analysis.

    Then, when you have a clear idea, there are no parasites try TWEAKUI and set the account you want to auto logon.

  • HP 15-f209wm with Intel Celero: need help with a unusual amenities. Install windows 7 on a new computer windows 10.

    Hello

    I am really puzzled here and need help you guys!

    A friend of mine, who is not computer savy is used to windows 7 and would like to 'return' in Windows 7 to a windows 10.
    She recently bought a new computer:
    Black HP 15.6 "15-f209wm with Intel Celeron N2840 4 GB memory 500 GB (windows 10)

    And had me working on it to install it as a Windows 7.
    The problem that I didn't forsee is that after I installed wiondows 7 Nothing worked because all the installed drivers were too 'new' for the Windows 7 operating system at least that is what I think the problem is.

    The main thing that doesn't work is the USB ports and Wifi,
    and I cannot find drivers to make this 'connection', this 'bridge' of sorts between Windows 7 operating system and the hardware inside the computer.  And I can't find solutions on the net!

    An idea that I'm trying is to copy and paste drivers from another computer Windows 7 HP, on it. But I don't know if that's going to walk.

    I am really confused with this and need your expertise!

    We thank you in advance.

    * Note *.
    This computer has not been upgraded from a previous version of Windows.
    I tried the Driver Booster to see if it would be the auto scan, detect and install fix it but it didn't.
    I got the Lan/Ethernet is finally working.

    Hello:

    This driver installs usb, not the chipset driver controllers... (the last driver that I posted on my first answer).

    Download, unzip and run the setup.exe file.

    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/download/25687/us B-3-0-Intel-USB-3-0-Driver-for-Intel-NUC6i-x-SY

    According to the specifications of product for your laptop, the USB driver above must have worked.

    If the usb driver 3 above fails to install the usb controller...

    Please view the the hardware ID for the USB controller requiring driver.

    To find the hardware ID, go the Device Manager and click on the usb controller requiring driver.

    Then click on the Details tab in the upper part of the window of the USB controller.

    Now you will see a drop-down list of property, and it will be set to the Description of the unit.

    On this list and select the 2nd (Hardware ID).

    After the first string of characters you see in the window.

  • Need help... New office which does not recognize the IP address

  • Need help with network home using Airport extreme

    I need help with my home network.  I'm not very aware when it comes to all things network.  Here's how my network is currently set up.

    Cable modem to Airport Extreme for Gigabit Switch.  Cables come out of the switch to all areas of the House.  I have 2 other extreme airport connected in other rooms of the House directly on the wall that dates back to the switch.  I hope I am explaining that properly.

    My problem is that this seems to have caused some of my connections cable does not work.  When everything is configured, it has worked well.  All connections in the House worked.  Then we have disconnected one of the extreme airport and moved to another location in the House to have the best wifi coverage.  Since that time, a lot of the ethernet wall plugs are not working.  For example, when I plug in my Macbook Pro in making ethernet in my kitchen, it says connected but it has an assigned ip address and cannot connect to the internet.

    Any help you can provide would be great.

    I would like to get the return tech to help you to...

    But it is likely that something (or someone) has tampered with the settings.

    The layout is fine... but you can cause problems with the network by creating a loop.

    This can happen because the AE you moved is connected wrongly... somewhere in the network it is connected to the switch again.

    Or AE is set to expand wireless... It's FAKE... It will loop the network on the back main EI wireless.

    Unplug the two AE you have that function as extensions...

    Turning off everything else... then it works again...

    Do it in this order.

    Modem... Wait 2 min

    AE... Wait 2 min

    Switch.

    Now check that the network is working properly... power of customers in various locations and make sure everything is good.

    If so, then manually reset the two AE of factory and redo their installation.

  • HP Pavilion Slimline s5 - 1140d: need help with relocation to Windows 7 from Windows 10 Technical Preview

    Hello. I am currently using a Windows 10 Technical Preview in my office and want to install the official version of Windows 10. However, Microsoft has answered me, in order to install the FREE Windows Home 10 fresh new official retail version, I have to go back to the previous version which is Windows 7 then updated via windows update. I tried to check with HP Recovery Manager, but there is no option to return to windows 7. Only it has option to reset the tech 10 preview windows. So I went to the Microsoft website to download the ISO of Windows 7 files to install in flash player, it asks for the product key. And then I entered the key correctly which is stuck on my Windows product key sticker desktop. But he didn't and the message that this is a key of the OS preinstalled, contact your manufacturer. Now, I'm stuck with how to return to Windows 7! I need help ASAP! Thank you. I did backup and everything so much already.

    Yes, M$ makes it seem as if the OEM product key will work, but it does not work. There are choices and it depends on how you wish to just to proceed.

    As the model number is not included in the post, it is only a general Council, here.  You can make one of these to restore Windows 7 to useful step.

    (1) reinstall Windows from the recovery disks set - if you do not, order of HP for a low price ~ $ 25 - $30 US

    (2) check if the recovery Partition (usually D :) there is and run recovery from that)

    3) reinstall using Winows 7 retail disc and allows to activate the COA key

    (4) buy 10 Windows and install

  • Need help for reading in parallel on the same interface and writing XNET

    Hello. I need help to configure CAN interface to write and read from the same interface.

    I use NI PXI-8513/2. I use CAN1 as interface.

    My had TO send status messages CAN every 100ms. I have to read in order to return akntoowlege to keep DUT CAN interface happy and not make mistakes.

    So, I want to open Strim Session and readall frames in the loop. At the same time, I need to be able to write in a frame HAD at the time...

    I only need to read one picture at a time too, but since I know the ID, I can pull it from the stream.

    What I'm confusing all is how to put in place the same CAN1 interface to be able to write and read in parallel.

    I think I would get errors that interface is already in use.

    Since I'm new to CAN, I was read and write only when necessary. But, sometimes I was getting errors on my messages. Sometimes I get message, sometimes miss me. But, when I run CAN test criminal as sniffer he sends and written every time. I was told it's because it recognizes all messages.

    I opened to suggestions of how best to implement the interface.

    I guess I can use CAN2 and separator to work around this problem, but I would use an interface if possible.

    Thank you

    Hi Rus,

    The XNET hadrware takes care of most of the low level of detials for you. The reading and writing of the circuits are both connected to the bus at any time. When you write to the hardware it will try to put a frame on the bus at the first opportunity he can. If the frame loses arbitration material re - will attempt to send the frame up is successful. Reception equipment monitor activity on the bus, regardless of what it conveys. The material received will usually throw a framework that was sent by communication equipment, but there is an Echo property pass to circumvent this behavior too.

    Take a look at the example of the expedition: MAY-> NI - XNET-> Sessions-> multiple Sessions Intro-> CAN even exit entry framework Port unique Point.vi. Keep in mind that this example you will need to use a second CAN interface to recognize frames, it transmits. I would recoment against the example CAN output Frame Single Point which would mimic your ECU if you choose a type of cyclic frame running this example.
