  • I try to use my Time Capsule as external hard drive. But when I look in the Finder, nothing is available for shared devices.

    I have a Macbook air running OS X El Capitan. I try to use my Time Capsule as external hard drive. But when I look in the Finder, nothing is available for shared devices. I don't know if I need to restart the time Capsule or change the wireless setting, etc. ?

    Please advise...

    The TC appears in airport utility? If not then it is probably not part of your network or is lost... upgrade installed you El Capo because there a lot of questions.

    What is the TC plugged into the network by ethernet? And configured properly? Are you to internet via the TC... but can not see his drive... that would be typical?

    Have you set Finder preferences to display the network drives? Apple keeps making it difficult for some unknown reason.

    You actually have to mount the drive TC if it appears under shared... it still may not appear if you double click on it. Under the search box on the top of the right hand you see Connect (As) box, type the name or IP address of the TC in there... Make sure that you save the password from your keychain.

    I try to use my Time Capsule as external hard drive

    For the storage of the files it is fine.

    For the execution of direct files for an application in the Mac, you are very likely to damage or corrupt the file at some point.

    And how do you do backups? Time Machine can't help you... it won't work.

    Backup is crucial, especially if you do things apple say not to do... That is to say move your photos or the iphoto library to the TC and try to use direct from there... expect any day to need a resumption of the library.

  • "Can not open AsIO.sys (2)" I get this message when I log in after a reboot. I have search for the file, but can't find it with the research or the command prompt. What do do in this file, and can be created and put into the appropriate folder?

    Hi Jack,

    This driver belongs to AsIO.sys Asus Probe. Try to uninstall Asus Probe and if you need, install again. If this does not help, uninstall Asus Probe and other tools of control such as Speedfan. Open the registry (regedit.exe) editor and search for AsIO.sys and remove all the entries that you can find.

  • I get an error message when you try to install PS CS6. Telling me missing file and I need to download the support Counsellor who no longer exists.

    Need help re install PS CS6, who disappeared off a pc users. I connected to Adobe and downloaded the installer. When I try to run the installer I get an error pop up. "We met the following problems Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to a missing file. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem. "Such advice no longer exists! Help

    Hi PCBs % century 40,.

    'Download Support Advisor' is a generic error, and we need to understand what is causing the problem. Most of the time, its a problem with the download was not successful or downloaded correctly. So, in this case, re-download the software and do not forget to compare the file size of the file downloaded with the file on the server.  Download Creative Suite 6 applications

    Allows you to check in this case as well and make sure that the download is complete, if the size of the file is correct, to the install.log file.

    Navigate in the log files in one of the following folder:

    Mac OS: / Library/Logs/Adobe/Installers /.

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Adobe\Installers\

    The name of the log file includes the name of the product and installation date, followed of ".". log.gz."the .gz extension indicates a compressed format.

    You can use WIN RAR to extract the 7z or gz file:

    WINDOWS: http://www.rarlab.com/rar/winrar-x64-531.exe

    MAC: WinRAR download and support: post-Télécharger

    Once unzipped, the log file is a text file, open the .log using TextEdit (Mac OS) and notebook (OS Win)

    Scroll to the bottom of the log. Look in the section - summary - for lines that begin with ERROR or FATAL and signals a failure during the installation process.

    Copy and paste this section SUMMARIZED here so that we can check for errors. Alternatively, you can analyze the logs yourself. http://helpx.Adobe.com/Creative-Suite/KB/troubleshoot-install-logs-CS5-CS5.html

    Let us know if that helps.

  • Windows 8 crashes when I try to view the apps or search for what

    I use Windows 8 and everything worked well until about 1 week after my purchase, a few days ago, my computer crashes whenever I try to view my apps or use the search function. When I click on 'applications' or try to pick up anything, the computer hangs for about 5 seconds, then returns to the home metro screen. This means I have no way to open applications except statement on the desktop, open the Explorer and manually search for the executable file. Needless to say, it's still more embarrassing than to not have a start menu first. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I haven't tried the no update method after you refresh my computer, always had this problem. I decided to go ahead and download the updates last night and today no more problems!

  • Photo PhotoSmart 7520 tray is blocked when I try to print photo 4 x 6 for the first time.

    I just bought this 7520 and installed the software; then when I tried to print a picture for the first time, I kept getting the error message that the photo tray is locked (will not travel to bottom to pick up the blank photo paper) even if no clogging. The call centre could not solve the problem, and they ship me a replacement printer; but I suspect that this may be a common problem.

    I searched the post, and someone else had the same problem.  The solution is that the tab on the slide of paper size was outside the slide area.  I fixed it, and the printer now prints pictures.

  • When you search for a file from an application, I only see the folders and subfolders and impossible to open the folder to point to the files

    Windows 7 pro. When I need to make an application to a file, for example in Media dial 6 (video editing room) I open the browser and find the drive and folder the file is in, but I don't see the folder with a + extend next to him, if I develop I cannot see its subfolders, but can not see inside the folder to view the file. It must be a simple setting in windows that I can't work.  Any help would be appreciated.

    JPH

    It look something like this picture below?  If so, the program is specifically asking you to choose a folder, not a file.  This could mean that the program will read all the files once you make your selection, and then offer another way to choose the particular file (such as a list in the library of the program or file display itself).

  • SE error message "Windows Explorer has stopped working" when you try to search for document files

    Original title: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727

    When I'm looking for my document folders all of a sudden, a window pops up saying: windows Explorer has stopped working, then it restarts my computer, I followed to DW20.exe and my friend told me to try and rename it but for some reason any he used to let me. This is a recurring problem and is extremely frustrating!

    Please help me

    Hello

    Were there any changes (hardware or software) to the computer before the show?

    Perform the steps from the link below and see if it helps.

    Error: Windows Explorer has stopped working

    Note 1 : when you perform the clean boot, then follow step 7 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.

    Note 2: Make a backup of all your data on an external drive before you perform an upgrade in-place, as this could result in loss of data.

    Hope this information helps.

  • When I look for a file in Win Explorer, I get a list of files in the search results. But some of the files seem to be missing. I get a message that the directory is not found when I try to open the search results.

    I wonder if what's on my hard drive and if what Win Explorer is on my hard drive are two different things.

    If I do a search in Win Explorer to "purple", I get a number of results.
    (To search for a file, I am in the word "Purple" in the search field in the upper right Win Explorer and pressing the "Enter" button).

    There are a couple of JPG files that I wonder about the search results.
    One example is called "purple_flowers.jpg".
    When I double-click this file in the search results to open it, my paint program opens and gives me a message that the directory is not found. If I use MS Paint to try and open it by double-clicking on the file and selecting "open with...". MS Paint", I get a message that the directory is not valid.

    The location of the directory on the error message is the blue 'Images' folder for my user. But, when I opened this file, I don't have a file with that name in this directory. The same thing happens with another JPG file, called "octopus.jpg" when I search the word 'Octopus '.

    Is this something messed up between what I have on my hard drive and think what Win Explorer is on my hard drive?
    How can I fix?
    Something must be reset in Win Explorer?

    I could have the JPG files with these names at the same time. I had a large library of images for a project, but I deleted it.
    (I tried to turn on the option to show hidden files in this directory, but that did not help).

    Imane:

    I thank very you much for that answer.
    But it seems to have stumbled on the solution:

    Strangely, this worked:

    (Maybe you know why).

    I moved the files in my blue images folder in another folder, delete the folder images blue, emptied the Recycle Bin and rebooted my computer.
     
    When my computer has finished its startup routines, my folder of photos blue was there! And he had the shortcut to the folder 'Sample Pictures' inside.
     
    When I searched "the Octopus" and "purple", I no longer saw these JPG files in the search results.
     
    I don't really know what happened, but I thought that after these results just in case someone else knows this.

    I'll read and watch in your information. I don't want to know more about what is happening in my computer.
