When you play Pandora in Chrome, the music pauses when chrome is not the active program or after the computer is idle.

I want to have music playing in the background while I work in other applications like word or outlook or office remotely or even when I'm not at the computer.

But if I start audio to play (any source) in my browser Chrome's default, I can work in the other tabs in chrome, but I can't minimize chrome or activate any program or window or it goes to pause my music.
Also, if I start something to play, I want her to play even after the screen goes to sleep. As soon as the screen goes to sleep, the music stops, then I have to move the mouse to keep going.
I can't find the settings to correct this, but I think that I have narrowed down it it down to be a W8 problem, is not a browser problem.

Hey,.

It is resolved. check if it works for you:

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem. However, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

    1. This is not the exact model. your ASUS computer?
    2. The issue has started happening recently? If so, did you do the computer-specific changes before this problem?

    The question could arise is there some problem of corruption of pilot partners or a third party service interferes with the function of the normal keyboard. In order to diagnose and resolve the issue, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Try to start the system in safe mode and check if the number is reproduced. If this isn't the case, then clean the computer starts and check if that helps.

  • How can you play a movie on the Xoom?

    OK now my turn to ask a stupid question. How are you supposed to play a movie on the xoom? Let's say you have the file downloaded in the movies folder, what is the formal process to play this movie?

    I realize that I can use my file manager to select the movie and he will play, but it seems to me that there should be an icon or an app for it as showing a picture or play music with the icon of the music. I'm looking at this point of view of someone who isn't a geek and want to play a movie?

    OK solved my problem. You use the App Gallery. guess who wasn't quite intuitively obvious to the casual observer as my teacher said.

    1 did you changes to the software to the computer before the show?

    Start the computer in safe mode and check if the problem persists or not, if the question does not persist then perform the clean boot and check whether the problem is resolved or not.

    Was: start the computer in safe mode

    Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not work in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed.

    Start your computer in SafeMode (Windows 7)

    B: Perform the clean boot and check if the problem is resolved or not.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  • Message to username/password invalid when you try to connect to the computer on a homegroup.

    Original title: Second computer cannot find the domain of the first computer in a homegroup

    I have a 2 computer homegroup.  Each computer is says that it is a member of the homegroup.  No matter what computer created the homegroup has no difficulty to access each other, but who later joined can not reach the first.  There is always a message to username/password invalid.  In addition, in the left panel, the computer that joined is not listed under "homegroup" but the computer that created the homegroup sees the one that was added.  This works the same regardless of the order in which everything happens.  I used to think some userid is messed up, but since it works when I reverse the process of creation/join I suspect it's something different.

    Found.  It still does not make any sense, but...
    Remember that this is always the computer that created the homegroup that is the problem.  When you go through Control Panel / homegroup computers are said to belong to a homegroup.  When you go to networking and click to view the entire map, there is this message that says that you have been invited to join a homegroup.  Don't forget, it's the computer that created the home group.  In any case, logical, if you agree to join the homegroup, you have created - and the "homegroup" says you are already a member-all right.  Works fine now.  Go figure.

    OT: Google Chrome do not open - Windows 8

    Hello

    I was not able to open Google Chrome for a few days.  I tried to uninstall the program, so I could always install thinking that would solve the question, but I'm not able to uninstall.  Finally, I realized that I was not able to open Chrome since the last round of updates to Microsoft Windows on May 23, 2015. So, I tried to uninstall all 6 updates (not knowing who has the problem), but have only managed to uninstall 2 of them - KB3035583 and KB3046480. I am now able to open Chrome... yay!

    I now want to know is

    (1) what are the 2 updates above?

    (2) are 'important '?

    (3) do I reinstall and do not have Chrome work?

    (4) how do I update/uninstall and reinstall Chrome?

    Thank you very much.

  • My screensaver from win7 refuses to start when the computer is idle

    There are very few times when my screen saver works.  Otherwise, I'm sure that there will be no screensaver when I come back from a stay, a meal, etc.

    Hello

    When you set a time for a screen saver start, the computer must be completely empty (no activity) during this time, the screen saver to start.

    The most common problem if the screen saver does not work, it's that you have a device or a program that constantly generates sufficient activity to prevent the screensaver to start.

    Some of these devices and programs are devices/programs of VOIP, like Magicjack, Skype, etc. These devices and programs can be set to monitor at all times for incoming calls.

    Some antivirus programs may generate enough activity to prevent a screensaver from starting.
