    In Dreamweaver CM³ why can't the workspace options? Where can I find 'AP draw div' or one of my tools of "designer"?

    Apart from APDivs, I don't know what are the other tools you talk, but DW has been modernized in the last version of delete a large number of redundant and old tools and shaped controls. APDivs are such a tool which has been deleted (and should be removed versions there are many, many).

  • Yoga 900 - do not wake up to the top of the mode standby mode when it is connected to an external monitor

    Hello world. It's just a message of public service regarding an issue I encountered. I found that my 900 Yoga do not "wake up" after he went to sleep when you are connected to an external monitor.

    I am connected to a HP 27VX monitor by a C of Type USB to HDMI adapter. I found that my Yoga wakes up without problem if the screen is off (power options disable the display settings), but he does not wake up if she gets to sleep when it is connected to the monitor. The question however is not that he don't wake up, the problem is that for some reason when it is connected to the monitor there's going to ever really sleep (slow flashing white light). I think it is the way of somehow when you try to go to sleep. When he enters this mode, the power led is white, and the only solution is power Yoga of the cycle. I don't know why he won't successfully to sleep when it is connected to a monitor, but my guess is a certain type of driver/hardware between the USB type C HDMI adapter and the monitor problem.

    I checked that everything works as designed when I am not connected to the monitor. My solution is to go to power options and turn on my sleep option (when it's plugged in) to "never". Not a solution by any means, just a work around so that all stakeholders (Lenovo, HP) understand how to work with the new port USB Type C. I hope this helps.

    Lenovo support makes installation. I don't remember whether or not she has uninstalled the driver first. Sorry:)

  • Cannot SSH in vmware player (can use the local IP address but not external IP)

    As above

    Cannot SSH in vmware player (can use the local IP address but not external IP)

    Am new to vmware, so if you need information to help me on what you'll need to tell me how to get

    See you soon

    Vodkaholic27, let me start with the layoff of vodka for a bit and then set Virtual Machine network card to bridged and then assign a static IP address that is appropriate for the guest as the physical LAN operating system is the host.  Then in the local physical network for static IP address router you assigned in the guest OS configure it to allow Port Forwarding on the appropriate port.  Then, you will be able to access from outside local physical host network.  If it's just on the other system on the physical LAN to the host that you want to access the guest you need not set up the Port Forwarding on the router on the local physical host network, simply use linked by a bridge to the network adapter in the Virtual Machine.  If you use NAT to the NIC of the Virtual Machine, then you need to set Port Forwarding in the virtual network Editor.

    Note: The virtual network Editor is not installed by default in Vmware Player 3.x and later versions.

    ==========

    To install the missing virtual network Editor, the command prompt:

    VMware-player-*.exe -e c:\vmptmp
    

    Then in the c:\vmptmp folder find the file c:\vmptmp\network.cab and extract (double-click on the .cab file) vmnetcfg.exe (virtual network editor) file in the working directory of VMware Player usually 'C:\Program VMware Player' or ' C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\VMware Player.  You can create a shortcut and place it with the shortcut of VMware Player, if you want to access it more easily.  Note: there are some for all the files to be extracted to then access the network.cab file.

  • Satellite L50 - B - 1 p 1 connection to an external monitor

    I just bought a satellite P L50-B-1 1. When I tried the port RGB (VGA) to connect to an external monitor, the screen of the laptop freezes, the mouse freezes and the monitor does not display the image. I followed the instructions on how to connect the 2 together and selected everything including extended. I have tested the monitor with another laptop and the monitor works perfectly.

    Not something I'd expect from a new laptop.

    Can someone help me please?
    Thank you

    Robin

    Hello

    Are you using the original pre-installed OS that you got with your machine?
    I m was really asking something like that to happen. Try to turn off your device. Connect the RGB cable and turn it on again.
    Do you use the F4 key to switch between internal and external?

    Did you test using the HDMI port? If so, post it please the results. It will be interesting to know if the same problem occurs again.

  • laptop connected to an external monitor with vga cable issues?

    1The votefavorite

    I use a Sony Vaio e series laptop running windows 7 Home premium 64-bit, which I always connect to an external monitor with a VGA cable.

    I put graphics options to display only on the external monitor and I would like to close the lid of the laptop. In the power settings I put it do nothing when the lid closes.

    When it is connected to the external screen I am able to look at the screen very well if the lid of the laptop is open. But whenever I close the lid, the display on the external monitor is turned off.

    I have tried everything I can think of as the use of a keyboard to toggle the display, change the plan to plug the monitor off before and after and even more, to much to list etc.

    I actually did it on my HD TV using a Hdmi cable that allows me to close the lid. But I want to use it only on my monitor that is sadly only VGA.

    I know I'm not alone here, I found many forums on the same issue, but nobody seems to have an answer. It is always with the help of a VGA cable when I find others with the same problem.

    Does anyone know where a response?

    It seems either VGA may be quite old now since the introduction of HDMI, that Microsoft has not bothered to look on this or get out an update to resolve this issue. Sorry it's just very frustrating because cannot find an answer, and I don't like the laptop overheating or wasting money on energy.

    (1) right click on your power Option icon on the taskbar

    (2) will take you to Options below

    Control Panel:

    Choose what closing the lid"this choice is the 3rd in your list of choices

    The next screen will allow you to configure your choice:

    When I close the lid:

    On battery: do nothing and

    Plugged in: Do nothing

    This will prevent your system/video to go to sleep or stopping

    Hope this helps

  • Is it possible I can get the virtual computer connectivity after restart to connect to the local network in the host operating system?

    Hi all

    For some reason, I have to disable and then enable the LAN connection in the host operating system. If some virtual machines are running during this time, connectivity all VMs for out-of-world are lost, they cannot connect to the host even more (by running the ping command). I tried a few methods to retrieve the connectivity, but all have failed, for example,

    1. reboot the virtual computer

    2. restart VMware Workstation

    3. restart the corresponding system services in the host operating system

    The only way I can retrieve all is to restart the host operating system itself.

    Yes, is there short any path, I can retrieve the connectivity of these virtual machines?

    Thanks in advance.

    Try installing a newer driver.  According to the site, you should be able to find a driver dated 2008 or 2007 (depending on which exact model of NetLink card you have):

    Sometimes out of some firewall programs is not enough (they keep still themselves installed in the network of the host stack, even if they are 'closed').  You may need to uninstall to make sure that it is not interfere.  (Search the forums for support for your firewall software see if anyone else is having problems with vmware and 360 safe guard).

  • Why can't the upgrade procedure be re-scheduled to warn users BEFORE they upgrade they will lose the additional features they have relied on for years? This isn't a trivial matter - read the other "complaints"!

    For the second time in my experience, an update of Firefox led to a lost feature where the modules are considered incompatible. It is UNACCEPTABLE that the user is not warned prior to this loss. It is immaterial that the Add-ons are third parties: If Firefox can 'discover' the problem AFTER the upgrade, it can warn us BEFORE the upgrade. I love Firefox, but you've already lost one of my sons as a user because of what it sees as a casual disregard for the personal choices of the users. Give us the ability to customize Firefox. Fantastic! Can paralyse us when we innocently do a upgrade. How much more of your user base that you want to lose?

    As a user of long date of Firefox (and Netscape), I tend to agree with you that some type of compatibility check must be done before the real Firefox takes place version upgrade. I never install a new version of Firefox on my previous version. I admit that I'm a more experienced user and generally start to use new versions of Firefox during the beta test period and install the beta version, with a separate profile required, to test the new product and test the compatibility of the add-on. I know that's not possible or convenient for all users.

    The following extension can save you some frustration.

    • It adds an option "Empty list" on the screen Add on
    • It will show compatible Mozilla products and versions for each Extension.
      • I do not believe that the Extensions installed from other sites that the site Mozilla Add - ons are included; you will need to check the site from which you downloaded the Extension or with the developer of the Extension for the updating of the plans for the new version of Firefox.
    • I installed it and I use it as a first step before contacting the developers Extension and or visit their home/forums pages looking for beta versions of their Extensions for new versions of Firefox.
    • This will help you if you do not allow automatic updates of Firefox; most versions of news (e.g., Firefox 3.x of Firefox 4). See:

  • How to reset the default monitor on Acer 2920, computer laptop think always connected to an external monitor

    Hello, I hope you can help me! I have a laptop Aspire 2920 with Windows Vista Home Edition O.S. It starts and works fine except that after I used it with an external monitor (a tv screen) on the possibility of using the external monitor, it only now starting to think that the monitor is the flat screen tv and doesn't recognize the normal screen of the laptop. The laptop screen is now "pixeled" and shows only like 2/3 of its total width. I checked in Control Panel and it has recorded as the 'normal' monitor flat screen, but I can't way a find to tell the computer that the monitor is the same as usual and not the flat screen tv. Thank you!!!

    Dear Lawrence,

    I ve solved the problem.

    Do you have your suggestion to reset and did not work, but keeping your idea, I hooked to an external monitor, mounted in Control Panel, remove the "non-existent" monitor in the device section.

    At this point, I had no image at all in the laptop and only the external monitor.

    Turn off the computer and then reset the power supply.

    Because the computer did not all other monitors, he then had to use the one by default with the default resolution, etc..

    Thanks, it was a great help!
