  Hello

  In Event Viewer, I see a lot of mistakes like:

  Source: The customers DNS events

  There was an error trying to read the local hosts file.

  I read that threat indicating to rename the hosts for "hosts" file

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-networking/system-log-shows-repeating-error-code-3221225485/3700e855-ded4-4F12-960f-1577f6132c04

  HOWEVER, the name of the file in my computer appears as it should

  C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc / "hosts".

  and the content of the file is as it is supposed to be according to: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/972034

  What should I do to fix this error?

  P.S. I suspect my computer is compromised. Last weekend, Security Essentials has reported a malicious file backdoor and it has been deleted, but I have a weird behavior of the computer

  Thank you

  Try to re-create the hosts file.

  Open Notepad as administrator (click right on the Notepad icon or shortcut and click Run as admin) and type the following information in it:

  127.0.0.1 localhost

  : 1 localhost

  The '1' in the '127.0.0.1' must be in the first column of the line and there must be at least one space between "127.0.0.1" and "localhost". In the second line, there must be at least one space between ": 1" and "localhost".

  Save the file with name "hosts" in the C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc folder.

  Computer Office P6210f.  It would be win7 pro because I really like win 7 and not Win 8 so far.

  Yes, you can upgrade to Pro. Just buy the Pro version with license key. You can't even run the Windows dvd. Try Windows Anytime Upgrade in your departure, all programs Menu. Select "Enter an upgrade key" and enter your new license key. This should automatically unlock the additional features of the Pro version. In the case where that it fails, you can of course run your dvd.

• Why can't I view the new CR2 files even with Camera Raw V 9.3.0.506 installed?

  Usually, it is done with the update of Digital Camera RAW provided by apple compatibility.

  Unfortunately, it seems Yosemite 10.10 can use the necessary Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 6.04 and El Capitan 10.11 ships with support for this camera, but there is no update that takes in charge that the Mavericks 10.9.5 camera.

• Problem connecting to the local host

  I am trying to connect to my localhost server if I can use my program of EasyPHP.  I tried connecting on Internet Explorer and Firefox but not able to connect to the local host. When I ran Windows diagnosis, I got this error message

  "localhost is not configured to establish a connection on port"World Wide Web Service (HTTP)"with this computer.  -What this means and how can I solve the problem? Could a firewall be the cause?
  I have mysql on my computer. When I ran today, he did let me get to my databases. When I used the root username, it not let me access it. Usually, I'm able to access without having to use a user name or password.  Don't you think that this has nothing to do with why I can't connect to the local host to my internet?
  Thank you.

• Why can't I configure the POP/IMAP mails for my Muse site in Business Catalyst? I don't have the option "use this service for e-mail as hosting the Web site" under Advanced options

  Why can't I configure the POP/IMAP mails for my Muse site in Business Catalyst? I don't have the option "use this service for e-mail as hosting the Web site" under Advanced options.

  Is this due to my hosting Plan? Appreciate the answers.

  Your site is a CCM that is located on a WebBasics plan (this plan does not e-mail hosted on Business Catalyst).

  If you want to create the email addresses on this site, you will need to configure your mail elsewhere server and configure the MX records on your site to point to the external mail server.

  If you want to use the hosted Business catalyst e-mail services, you should use a WebBasics + or superior siteplan. To upgrade your free CCM site, access administration area of your site-> Site Management-> upgrade now-> choose the desired site plan and billing frequency-> Add personal and credit card details-> Submit.

  Please see this article on setting up email on your site of BC accounts: http://docs.businesscatalyst.com/user-manual#! / settings/mail electronic-users of the site -

  For the establishment of the records point to the external mail server, see http://docs.businesscatalyst.com/user-manual#! / settings/email-users/creation-boxes of reception-for-your-users of the site

• Using wordpress on the local host

  I know that my post is not specific to DW. I got a lot of help here, so I'll ask the question. My ultimate goal is to work with a form of WP site in DW.

  I installed xampp and wp on my localhost. I successfully copied and installed in xampp/htdocs/xampp all the site files and the MySQL database file from an existing WordPress custom theme site online. I can open the website on my localhost and I can connect to the WP Dashboard on my local host. all messages and pages and the plug ins and everything is there. The site looks and works on my localhost, just as it does online. Yes.

  But there is a problem, and I just can't understand it. When I view the site on the local host - none of the navigation links work. For example, there are an 'INFO' menu nav element and a corresponding info page. I can see the INFO page and all of its contents in the WP Dashboard and change it in the editor dashboard. But if I click on preview, I get a "the requested URL was not found on this server.    The link on the referring page seems to be wrong or outdated. "error. the same thing happens if I click on the link in the nav menu. This is true for all the menu pages/nav links.

  I think that this is related to the permalinks and .htaccess file. If go to the section permalinks dashboard th GTE, which automatically results in a .htaccess file will be created at the root of the installation of WP. Once the file /htaccess is created I can't view the site on localhost. If I delete the .htaccess file I get the site back but with the nav link page not found problem

  I googled the problem and tried a variety of things, including the links below, but just can't make it work.

  http://www.lancelhoff.com/how-to-make-WordPress-permalinks-work-in-XAMPP/

  http://www.PHP-developer.org/htaccess-in-WordPress-XAMPP-localhost/

  Anyone here have experience with this and any suggestions? I am so close to have this job, but just can not pass it. TIA for any help.

  Disable the permalinks when working locally.

  Apple withdrew temporarily updating iOS 9.3 for devices more old to deal with some issues, what he was creating. Better to wait a few days for them to correct problems.
