What are the basic criteria to keep a computer in good operating condition?

HI: I asked a question before and I will say first my pc works fine and I have no problem.  I want to know, as PC users, what are the basic top of page I should or can do to keep my PC works perfectly.  First: I am a paid version of the anti-malware software and Online Armor for my firewall.  I am running Windows 7 64 bit with IE 9 - I used 10 & 11 and frankly don't like them.  I run more registry cleaner software as I think that was my fall down during the past year, why I had to reinstall my discs of recovery on 12 or more times.  Any basic help and knowledge would be appreciated as I like to learn new things - also if anyone knows of acceptable software that is allowed to run or use to keep your pc running like new thank you Dave

  • What are the criteria that the music App or music cloud determines if a song should be reported as 'stream only?

    • I have a very large music library that I uploaded to the cloud.
    • All the files are physically located on a local hard drive.
    • All files are .mp3.
    • All files were purchased from sources other than the music of the Xbox.
    In a seemingly random way, there are songs that have been reported as 'stream only' despite the above conditions.
    In some cases a single song in an album has been reported as 'stream only.
    What are the criteria that the music app or music cloud determines if a song has to be marked as 'stream only'?  If I had this info, maybe I could understand something.
    Please don't tell me to do something about that.  My huge music library; 45K songs, 260 GB in size.  Change files and turn on clouds or extinguish any simply questions I have hours of work manually download songs to the cloud which music xbox has not recognized.

  • What are the advantages/disadvantages of the use of PS/CS5 in 64-bit on 32-bit please?

    What are the advantages/disadvantages of the use of PS/CS5 in 64-bit on 32-bit please?

    From the point of view practice, in addition to the 64-bit version is a little faster to just about everything, the limits on the size of the document are lifted in the 64-bit version.  Basically, how can you make is limited only by the amount of RAM you have installed on your system.  You can do things like having the larger documents, a deeper story, etc. and did all the work quickly.

    However, the many 3rd party plug-ins, especially older ones, provide only 32-bit versions, which will only be 32-bit Photoshop.

    32 and 64 bit versions are installed by default.  It is important to note that most of the preferences are separated between the two, so you can have two slightly different configurations that could help the operations of specialty, you might need.  It gets pretty subtle, but for example I keep the 32-bit version configured with cache level 1 only, so that all previews images of low depth are always composed in great depth.  This helps me with certain aspects of the treatment of astroimage.  It is slower but more accurate.  However, I have several cache levels configured for my version of 64-bit, so it's faster for a general photography work.

  • What are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes game against external hard drive, Solid State etc. to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

    First question: what are the advantages and disadvantages of using iCloud drive (or other Cloud services) compared with iTunes Match against Solid State external hard drive etc to store my songs iTunes, playlists, ratings etc?

    Please let me know what are the alternatives for storage of my songs, playlists, song etc. other than iTunes game ratings ($ 24.99 / year)?  Is there a way to store all my songs with my song ratings, playlists, etc. with a CD song quality? Most of my (currently 130 GB) songs on my computer are CD quality that I prefer to keep as well as my notes of each song (i.e. 5 * vs. 4 * etc.), playlists, groups (music, classical, popular, country etc.).  What are the advantages and disadvantages to store my iTunes songs while CD quality with my personal notes, reading lists, groupings in the cloud?  ICloud of Apple Drive ($ 2.99 per month or $36 / year for 200 GB) would be the best way to automatically update and maintain my rankings iTunes personal including the future editions of the song etc or using Amazon, IBM, Microsoft etc cloud or an external hard drive SSD would work as well and maybe cheaper?  I currently have my iTunes on a PC of 2007 with vista (I use a 1 8T Western Digital external upward by car for my personal info all over HP, songs, photos etc. which is currently close to 170 GB) but also have an Apple i-phone 6 & I Air cushion.  Although I did not need to have all of my music with all their sides, etc. available on all of my devices at all times as iTunes game, I still would have easy access to information on both my PC and my iPhone or iPad?  Thank you.

    In my opinion?

    I back up my data to an external drive for several reasons.  The first is my data - if I put on the cloud, someone else has control over it, they can see what I have and change the preferences to what they see of marketing.

    Almost as important as that - if I had to rely on the cloud whenever I wanted to update my playlists on my phone, I need a better internet connection I have now (working at sea).  To get the best out of the cloud, you need a solid link to home, work or mobile.

    As a spin-off - I hate the fact that Apple take away a feature in their software updates and then allow an app to be sold in their store to replace this feature - or worse still, some features that were available before the updates are now "cloud only."  And Yes - you have to pay for the cloud.  I like most of the people do not appreciate the 'accomplished fact. "

    From the back of the external hard drive ASI downside, is that to be safe, you need to store outside in a separate computer place.  If keep you them together, if one is lost, probably, they are both.  That is to say for me a full backup before you travel, then a new upward as soon as I go home.  Downside is how much data may be lost between the two back ups if I needed to restore.  For me, its worth the risk.  If I was away and say had bought a ton of new music and couldn't go home anytime soon, I can always head to the store and buy a new external drive, they are massively expensive.  Even if my computer has to go for repair and my remote is to halfway around the world - I want to buy a new one.

    Now, some will say that once you buy a new external, you spend more than you would on a cloud subscription.  It's true, but in the 6 years following the purchase of Mac that I've only had to buy a new external once - so with a little luck and planning - it works.

    I left took well - I am not a subscriber of cloud, nor do I want to be.

  • Reinstall XP on Portege R600 - what are the necessary drivers?

    Hello

    I am plan to reinstall windows, since something (a driver/program/idontknowwhat) seem to access my hard drive at random times (often), which means that ever, it stops turning and still makes noise. It was already the case (but a little less than now) with preinstalled system, even with wdfrgmgr.exe disabled and without using a swap file on the hard drive, so since I don't know what are the causes (is - anyone here know?) and since it seems impossible to upgrade to an SSD, I'll just install a clean winXP install only necessary basic stuff (especially not all control panels).

    I would like to know what drivers from the Web site are essential and those that are not.
    I'll definitely install base drivers common Module, driver Display Driver LAN, HDD Protection Utility, Power Saver, his Driver, Touch Pad Driver, Webcam Driver, Wireless LAN Driver (Intel).
    I will not install (but maintaining install files on my disc for emergencies) acoustic silencer, Assist, Bluetooth Monitor, controls, cooling running Diagnostic tool, DVD player, Management Console, password, PC, PC monitor diagnostic, tool utility utility boot memory SD SD utilities, security help, SSD Alert, power utility Touchpad utility , USB Sleep & charge utility, utility zoom. I'm missing something essential (and obviously not in name) by installing is not it?

    * Now my other question: which with other drivers? I don't know what they are doing here is so my doubts since the following drivers: *.

    (1) pilot 3 G and 3 G RF power control utility: is this necessary if I never use it, or do not install the power utility will lose power (thus reducing my battery life?)

    (2) Intel Active Management Technology and Intel Matrix Storage Manager: is it necessary that the machine works correctly? I can't find the right information anywhere.

    (3) chipset utility: I am surprised it is not called driver... it is some control panel I don't need or is it actually a driver?

    (4) ConfigFree, hotkey wireless and Wireless Manager: my wireless internet will work without it?

    (5) display device Exchange & Hotkey utilities for display devices: these do what exactly?

    (6) microphone effect: is it only the echo canceller or also a necessary micro driver?

    (7) mobile Extension: what is it exactly?

    (8) trusted Platform Module: is it necessary to install this if I am not using any other explicitly related function?

    (9) public services: this product contains all I need to install the drivers? Or is it just a bunch of utilities like his name?

    Thanks in advance!
    Peter

    (1) you have not need drivers 3 G, if you do not use 3 G

    (2) Yes, you need to install these devices from Intel, they are important.

    (3) the Chipset driver is probably the most important of all drivers. Toshiba common modules is also very important. You must install these two before anything else.

    (4) Yes, we must still work. You can install the keyboard shortcut, so you can enable or disable Wifi on and outside

    (5) you need to install these, they support some features of the Fn key, so you can use an external monitor, etc...

    (6) I don't think that you will need. If you encounter problems with microphone, install

    (7) install the Mobile Extensions if you have a Port Replicator.

    (8) If you do not use the TPM encryption, simply disable it in the BIOS

    (9) you must install the utilities, so you can change the hardware settings within Windows.

  • What are the future plans for Aperture?

    It's simple.  I bought Aperture because iPhoto was not to my needs.  Now Aperture is replaced and the comments there say that Photos doesn't have the tools, I want to be.

    How much time have I not the right to use and download copies of Aperture for my computers?

    What are the plans for the Photos by integrating the features used by those who have paid extra for the opening?

    I'm not a professional photographer, but use a DSLR camera and it's easy to take "too many pictures".  An I take a picture, I keep if the quality is OK.  Records, it does not mean that I want to pay extra to save and it certainly does not mean that I want it on every device I own.  I want to use stars, keywords and projects (this function any name is fine with me) to organize my collection.  I don't want to just find a picture by the date it was taken, but of course, it is the most common research.  I want to have pictures with 2 stars or better in smart folders that I share on my various devices.  I use a smart folder for this today.

    I'm upset that the product has lost support.  I saved the libraries that rely on a programme of work to read (I've lost images in a dark form in the 1990s).  I spent money on a product, expecting to own for many years, but may not be able to download it for a new purchase of computer in 1 year.  I'm not yet sold on the cloud, and that's why.

    I spent money on a product, expecting to own for many years, but may not be able to download it for a new purchase of computer in 1 year.

    Apple has stopped the development of Aperture.  You will be able to use Aperture, as long as you have a computer with an Operarting system which is compatible with aperture.  Don't update your Mac to new versions of the system, unless you know for sure that the new system supports the opening. Don't forget to keep a full backup of your Mac with opening and your version of Mac OS X, so you can revert to this version, if you accidentally updated to a version that does not support opening.

    The Photos.app can open Aperture libraries, so you will always have access to your original images, albums and edited versions. See: How Photos handles content and metadata from iPhoto and Aperture - Apple Support

  • What are the things to do and not do purge external hard drive?

    Well, now that I got the big breakthrough on my 1st question in another category, thank you Gerry (England) and Pa bear!  Now on what is probably extremely easy for you. I have an external hard drive and when I got this HP computer about 2 years ago, I took and put ALL of my old computer inside (not realizing I didn't need to put some programs/trash etc.) All I wanted was to put documents / my pictures etc, SO WHAT are the things and make my external hard drive purge? Thank you...   Kind REGARDS Nicole Ramirez

    P.S. did publish in the right category?

    What I would do is create a new folder, move to this folder the items I wanted to keep, and then delete all the rest or I would move to another disk (or temporary storage in the cloud) these elements, I would like to keep, quick-format of the disk and replace the kept items.

  • What are the size of partition recommended for installing Windows 7 Professional 64-bit?

    What are the size of partition recommended for installing Windows 7 Professional 64-bit? I have a 2 TB internal hard drive and want to install Windows and Norton Internet Security on the drive C, drive D and drive E data programs.

    Thanks for a response.

    Brenda

    Original title: size partition Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

    For technical purposes, I recommend you only keep utilities all programs that you install on the startup disk. This is recommended if you plan to upgrade to future releases of Windows such as Windows 8 because you will experience problems with the installation program.

    I recommend however, you can keep accumulated data such as Documents, Photos, music, videos on a separate partition to ensure custody.

    The recommended size for the boot drive around things like Windows, future growth for applications and the Windows updates and program updates will be considered.

    So I recommend not more than 200 GB, for a lot of space, I would shoot up to 300 if you want to keep things like System Restore Points.

  • What are the syncupfiles

    What are the syncupfiles and with what devices can be used

    Hello

    To help you better, please answer this question.

    Are you referring to the timing of Windows or third-party synchronization software?

    I would like to inform you that on Windows, sync is the process of keeping two or more versions of the same file stored in different locations matched with each other. If you add, change, or delete a file in one location, Windows can add, change, or delete the same file in the other locations that you choose to sync with, whenever you choose to sync.

    The most common way to synchronize a mobile phone player portable music or other mobile device with your computer is to install and use the software of synchronization that include many manufacturers with their device.

  • What are the specifications for an inspiron 3000 11 touchscreen?

    Myself and others have on a mission to find a stylus that works with this 2 in 1 and so far not had much luck.  The squishy tip pen that I got for my phone does not work.  One of these somewhat new metal stylus with the small round disc on the end works fine on my phone, but not on the inspiron with or without a screen protector.  I had an active stylus for motorola with a battery that someone suggested, it does what intermiittingly but I guess the fact that it works at all should give me some hope.  What are the specifications for the touchscreen on the 3135?  I read that a thick cover as glass can affect if the pen works or not as well as screen protection.  I found a couple of stylus that claim to have the adjustable power so they should work with coatings of glass and screen protection.  Pen digital universal Adrien, adjustable overdrive and navitech are all meant to be active stylus which have two power settings.  I asked in the faq, but nobody can say if it works on the inspiron and the manufacturer says they have not tested either.  While I hate to spend 30 dollars on something like that without knowing that it will work 100%, I ordered one of the navitech off amazon because I can go back if I want to.  I poured everything I can find on this machine, but nowhere does anyone give any details about the touch screen.  I know that this is not intended to be a stamp artist drawing or anything other than the simple ability to interact with small buttons on the screen or the digital signature casual or simple drawing hand is the main reasons I want a small pen tip.  Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy this machine, but I don't understand why material for touch screen specifications seem to be such a mystery tech dark and deep.  This is perhaps because Dell has more than one supplier... I guess it could be both one reason than others.  Even if we can talk only about basic general information is probably more than I've found so far.

    Your S3 screen with a digitizer.  Your laptop screen does not work.

    Essentially, a laptop a scanning screen is also called "tablet" and - for systems or more 12 "inch screen size, will sell for a minimum of about $800-900.  About lowest price will be a simple touchscreen - not a digitizer.
