two icons for single computer

I need help with this. as you can see two icons in the boxes, this is the same computer. why I see this? anyone?

Hello Aftab,

Thanks for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

In accordance with the description of the problem and capture you provided it seems that this computer you are talking about is appearing twice screen (an IP address) and the second as its name.

I would be grateful if you can provide us with the following information to help us better understand the issue.

  1. Is this computer showing that two on other computers too, which are connected to the network?
  2. He appeared as the only computer previously on this computer? If Yes, you did it all changes before the show?
  3. These computers are connected to the domain network, the working group or to a group of House?

If it appears that both computers on other computers that are connected to the network, then it means that the problem is also with the computer which first appeared only two. If it does not appear that the two computers on other computers, then it means the problem is with the connection between your computer and the other computer which emerged only two.

If it appears that both computers on other computers connected to the network and then try the turn off network discovery, and then turn on the computer, which looks like two computers on the network. For this you can check the steps below and see if it helps you to solve the problem.

Network discovery is a network setting that determines if your computer can see (find) other computers and devices on the network and whether other computers on the network can see your computer. By default, Windows Firewall blocks network discovery, but you can activate it.

Enable or disable network discovery

If the problem persists, you can try to run repair constructed network and see if it helps you diagnose and fix the problem. Automated convenience store is a tool that can find and automatically fix problems with your computer. These utilities are not designed to solve all the problems, but they are useful to try because they can often save your time and efforts.

Using the troubleshooter from network in Windows 7

  • For the last month or more, I had the same two updates for my computer

    original title: Windows updates

    For the last month or more, I had the same two updates on my computer.  Is anyone know why and what I can do to fix this?  I am running Windows XP.  Thank you very much.

    Hello

    the message "you have hidden the important updates" is normal, because you have hidden the high priority updates, but the updates are already installed, if that's OK.

    Try to look again at the web page:

    http://www.update.Microsoft.com/

    and click on "Custom".

    You should not see the updates (KB2518864 and KB2539631) in "review and install updates.

    You should see only "Important - you have hidden the important updates..." and "high-priority - updates non-priority updates to update for your computer... ».

    Then, try this (remove the content of the "'C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution" ")

    1. Click Start, click run, type services.mscand click OK.
    2. In the Services (Local) pane, click automatic updates, and then click stop.
    3. Reduce the Services (local) window.
    4. Select all the contents of the Windows distribution folder, and then delete them.

      Note By default, the Windows distribution folder is located in the drive: \Windows\SoftwareDistribution folder. This place is a placeholder for the drive where Windows is installed.

    5. Ensure that Windows distribution folder is emptyand enlarge the Services (local) window.
    6. In the Services (Local) pane, click automatic updates, and then click Start.
    7. Restart the computer.

    I hope that we will achieve the goal, it will no longer still report the updates :-)

  • Why are there two icons for my P1102w in devices and printers, Windows 7 Pro?

    I've recently updated the firmware and drivers on a LaserJet P1102w and now have two icons in devices and printers on Windows 7 Pro. An icon is correct and functional; the other is basically an icon that does not work and it reads series of printers HP LaserJet P1100. Functional icon reads the printer HP LaserJet 1102w (which is correct). If a single UN-installs the unusable icon, Windows just charge drivers to re - start. Is it possible to get rid of this icon?

    The problem has been resolved.

    HP Smart Install apparently was the problem. It is that I have updated the firmware and drivers to the latest (version October 2012) that the problem started. I used the HP CD and run the utility to disable Smart Install. I managed to remove the second icon, and he never returned.

    When I bought the printer, Smart Install worked fine, but not after the firmware upgrade.

  • Two icons for the same program when pinned to the taskbar

  • BlackBerry Smartphones why the two icons of the emails?

    I don't understand why there are two icons for e-mails or messages.

    I would like to remove one of my e-mail account and keep the Messages one right.

    That is problem?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!

    Are you referring to the icon associated with your email address?

    It would look like an envelope with a globe with your email address under.

    I hide those and put in a folder, it reduces clutter on the home screen.

    All messages are in the queue, and I manage them all what he.

    Make sure that you remove, just hide. If you remove it, you remove the account!

  • two buttons with single function

    I want to create two buttons for single function and a single button for a function. For example, I click on button1, the display shows "clicked1".

    If I clicked on button2, the display shows "clicked2". If I click on button1, and then click button2, it will show that "the two buttons are clicked. However, it does not work in two buttons with single function. What is the problem? Here's the code.

    import flash.display.MovieClip;

    import flash.events.MouseEvent;

    var button1:MovieClip = new Button1();

    Button1.x = 200;

    Button1.y = 200;

    addChild (button1);

    var button2:MovieClip = new Button2();

    Button2.x = 300;

    Button2.y = 250;

    addChild (button2);

    Button1.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick);

    Button2.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick2);

    var isClicked:Boolean;

    var isClicked1:Boolean;

    function onClick(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

    isClicked = true;

    trace ("clicked1");

    }

    function onClick2(evt:MouseEvent):void {}

    isClicked1 = true;

    trace ("clicked2");

    }

    If (isClicked & & isClicked1) {}

    trace ("two buttons are clicked");

    }

    Copy the following code

    If (isClicked & isClicked1) {}

    trace ("two buttons are clicked");

    }

    should run WHEN you click on your buttons.  That is to say, place it in a function and call that function when you click on your buttons and after that your Boolean values are updated.  (probably then want to reset these Boolean values in the called function).

  • How to install two operating systems on a single computer

    How to install two operating systems on a single computer, xp and windows 7... ?

    Hello

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
    For the installation of two Windows OS (called Dual Boot), you first determine what exactly the BONES. Based on this, you can proceed to install the oldest operating system first, then installing the latest OS. Here, in your case, Windows XP first and then Windows 7.
    If you change the order, the latest version of Windows will not work correctly.
    In addition, you can use Virtual PC or VMware to use Windows XP in Windows 7. Windows XP Mode is another version of Microsoft which allows you to use Windows XP in Windows 7 through Virtual PC. You can download Windows XP Mode from here:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Virtual-PC/Download.aspx
    To install Windows XP Mode, you must have Windows 7 Professional or higher, with hardware virtualization enabled in your PC (you should check in the BIOS of your PC). If you prefer Windows XP Mode, you don't have to install Windows XP in the above mentioned way. It installs like any other program on Windows 7.
    Note that if you have Windows 7 Edition Home Premium or lower edition, you can try Windows XP using Virtual PC/VMware or dual-boot.

  • Two consecutive sound icons for Audio files

    HI -.

    I've implemented a flow line which has two icons of consecutive sounds before displaying an icon of interaction with a question.

    The first sound icon is for the audio issue.
    The second sound icon is for audio for all of the answer choices.

    Originally, I had the file set up to play full audio of the issue and to play the audio response BEFORE the interaction icon would then become active (which requires participants to fully hear the question AND choices before responding). I did it using «WAIT FOR PREVIOUS SOUND "in the timing tab for the sound icons.»

    Now my client wants the interaction in question is immediately active while the game of questions and answers.

    Is it possible to have TWO separate room sound icons in order "simultaneously"? Or do I need to combine the TWO audio files into a single icon and sound competing to define? I was hoping to avoid combining the two audio files into an icon of her unique for two reasons:
    1. the files in question and response are delivered separated... so you have to put them together.
    2. I was hoping to put the answer files that are reused several times in a library file so that they can be reused again and again to maintain the low file size... and if I have to combine the question with responses each time, it will increase the size of the file.

    Or can I somehow use a command in a CALC ico to play an audio file located elsewhere?

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you!


    The combination would be better for what is facilitated. A free audio tool like
    Audacity would be perfect. I understand the issue of management of library/property only.

    Authorware has only one audio channel the audio icon, you noted.
    The classic/native way to get around this is to have another audio
    Play through a sprite or an ActiveX control. The old method was to use
    the film with the film icon ' audio only ' QT, but the icon of film without
    more long handles QT...

    So much easier can be to create a Flash movie with the other audio file.
    Save down, as close to Flash 6 you can and use the Flash Sprite to
    play the other audio file.

    Otherwise, I think that Gary has a Xtra or .u32 on its site;

    who can manage playback of audio files - buddyWav, is it?
