  • Satellite Pro L670 - 18F PSK3FE Webcam works become "unknown device".

    The * webcam * on my * Satellite Pro L670 - 18F PSK3FE * who is running * Windows 7 64 - Bit * a well worked until this week. My notifications bar started to say * "unknown USB device" * and when when I went to use the webcam it no longer worked.

    When I disabled the webcam in the BIOS the notification has stopped, but when I turned it on the notification came back again to the top. The unknown device is clearly the webcam.

    I updated my BIOS and tried the system restore.

    I also downloaded the driver for the webcam of http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=UK and have tried running that - + but it NEVER seems to complete the installation. + I have will continue to try to reload the driver and see if that helps, but from now on, I do not think that the pilot will help.

    If it is just a driver problem, someone could suggest how to get the driver to install really :-(

    I am now at a loss. I'm not sure what to do now. Suggestions?... + Please! +

    Hello

    Unknown device means that the driver is not installed.
    I think that the installation of the webcam driver should fix it.

    As face recognition also use the webcam, I recommend you to uninstall this tool as well as the older version of the software of the webcam.
    Both (or just face recognition) should appear in Control Panel-> software

    Now download both applications to the driver page.
    Start with the installation of the webcam driver:
    (1) unpack the webcam driver package

    (2) the TC30049700N.exe may also be decompressed (right click-> extract here)

    (3) now you should see different files exe, dll, and others attempt to run setup.exe to start the installation. If this does not work, go to Device Manager, mark (webcam) unknown USB device and install the driver pointing to the folder that contains the files of webcam driver. The system should automatically recover dll files.

    (4) restart the laptop and follow with face recognition software.

    Good luck

  • pop up saying that a device is connected to my Imac with IP

    My iMac is completely compromised after having an intrusion on my internet router.

    I supported everthing this summer.  I tried to reset my IMac to factory settings.

    A pop up came in September saying that another device is connected to my internet

    connection with an IP address.  I called my provider of intellectual property, and they said it was a

    Xerox printer.  I don't have a Xerox printer.

    I followed all the steps in trying to get rid of malware and successfully, I think, to get rid of

    It is for 1 or 2 days.  But something else is in my system.

    Because I tried to protect my computer.  I'm changing my internet provider

    This week and I would like to hide my IP to my iMac.

    Hide my IP to my iMac when I'm on the internet?

    Depending on your router model, there should be a way of

    disable DHCP.  It is a method used by the router to assign

    IP addresses on your local network when any device attempts

    connect you to it.  You can then manually assign IP addresses to only

    These devices that you want to have access to your router.

    If you haven't already done so, you must also change the password (and also

    username if the router required) to something else and much stronger.

    If it is always the default, with which it was delivered, anyone can understand this.

    In addition, if the router is a network capable wireless as well, you must disable the comments

    access and create stronger passwords.

    Also, make sure that all firewalls is enabled on devices and the

    router.

    As every router is different, you will need to check the manufacturer's instructions

    to make these changes.
