• Why Apple does not have a backup battery for Apple devices?

  Why Apple does not have a backup battery for Apple device? Recommended us that of our full when we are on the road, so they should do a backup battery for their devices instead of other companies do. The backup battery that I use for my iPhone 5 c don't let my phone screen timeout as he does when I'm with the regular wall charger. Can anyone help?

  Consult the manual for your backup battery.  There should be a switch or a button to activate the phone load.  It should not be left in charge mode all the time because the phone thinks it has unlimited power when charging, so disabled several energy-saving features (like display sleep, closing a connection Wi - Fi when he sleeps).

• Why do I not have this problem, try to stop a USB before removal?

  I use Ghost to weekly backups of two disks. I used a USB Seagate FreeAgent drive uxternal but discovered that he didn't have enough space to accommodate the two discs. So I've upgraded to a Western Digital external USB Passport Essential SE with more space. The problem that I ran was when I clicked on the Windows icon 'Remove hardware safely' and selected the FreeAgent drive, then the Stop button. I got the message "the device 'Generic Volume' cannot be stopped now. Try stopping the device later.

  No, there was no disk activity happening on the FreeAgent. I've finally just pulled the plug on this issue and got the warning sound signal. (Plugged the new drive and it is working well). Some advice on why this has happened?

  Hello

  It could well reasons for this behavior. Perhaps another application using the player in the background and also that there could be a conflict with another device or software appliance.

  Hi Josefer,

  I'm sorry to hear that you have problems with your Firefox OS. What are the instructions did you follow to Flash your device ZTE open? Did you receive errors in the process?

  I would say the best way to solve this problem would be to reset your device.

  Warning: Resetting your phone will remove all data stored on the device, including applications, data from the calendar, e-mail accounts and settings.

  To reset the device, follow these instructions:

  1. Open the settings application.
  2. Press the button of device information.
  3. Press the button more than information.
  4. Press the Reset button.
  5. Press OK to continue or Cancel to cancel.

  If the problem persists, you may need to reflash your device using the construction and the instructions available on the download page of ZTE:

  • http://www.ztedevices.com/support/SelectProduct.HTML?type=software

  In addition, please remember that the best place to find support for questions specific to the device is directly with the OEM, as they provide the device-specific builds.

  We hope that this problem fixed the problem you had. Please report to us if this helped!

  Thank you!

• Devices and printers icons

  How do I change the icon of the generic printer for a period that best represents my printer. No problem on the other two systems with Win7, but the new machine gives me a way to change. It is for me a custom icon for my HP printer, but a generic for my Epson printer. Have some custom icons for the two printers on other machines in Win7. Help!

  There is a lot of information on the web about this.  For example, to see the results of this research--> https://www.google.com/search?q=windows+7+devices+and+printers+icons+change&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

  This tutorial explains how to make custom icons for devices Printers &--> http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/224162-devices-printers-change-device-icons-custom-icons.html

  But since your other Win 7 systems give you a specific device for your printer icon, I think all you have to do on this system is to check the appropriate box as shown here--> http://www.thewindowsclub.com/windows-7-download-latest-drivers-icons-devices-automatically once you check the box, you need to maybe reboot or do a manual Windows Update check updates to download the correct icon.

• Icons on the desktop are covered by some kind of a generic icon after installing updates

  Original title: updated ruined my office!

  Once the updates have been downloaded and installed to my computer Gateway DX4840-03F (Windows 7 Home Premium x 64) icons on my desktop are now covered by some sort of a generic icon applied on top of the icon who was there.  If I take the icons up to large size I can still see the edges of the original under the generic icon icon.  I'm hesitant to do a restore before the undates were applied.  I guess that when the updates have been applied, I would have the same problem.  This is the first time that I've never used this forum thing, but it seems that this isn't the hottest place of answers...

  Hi skipplummer,

  You can check in the history of Windows update and the updates recently installed.

  Step 1:

  Check the update history to see what updates have been installed. See the link for the same mentioned below.

  See the Windows updates are installed

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/see-which-Windows-updates-are-installed

  Step 2:

  Given that the problem occurred after installing Windows updates, you can try a system restore and then try to install the updates one manually and check.

  You can try a system restore to a point before installing updates.

  Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:

  System restore

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-is-system-restore

  System Restore: frequently asked questions

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions

  After restoring the system, try to download and install updates one manually from the Microsoft Download Center:

  Hope this information is useful.

• I can't stop my photo thumbnails to switch to generic icons.

  In my folder of pictures, all my photo files will briefly display a thumbnail of the photo but will immediately switch to a generic photo of the examples of Windows photo icon.  I can't figure out how to get the thumbnail to stay as my photo and not switch to the generic.  I have Windows Vista and it's never happened before.  It just started to do on its own, and I can't stop it.   It's a pain in the neck to find a photo in particular, when each photo in the folder has the same generic image and not a thumbnail of the photo.  I have to click on the generic icon and open it to what is the photo.  I do not use the Windows Vista Photo Gallery because I don't like.  I don't like no way that it forces me to organize his way and not mine.  I have my pictures in a subfolder in the folder my documents.  Help!  I lost interest in my photos because of this problem.

  Hi MaQMartok,

  Welcome!

  This can happen if there is some system files corrupted on your computer. Suggest to run a SFC scan, which would be a search for system files corrupted on the computer and replace them.

  How to run scan SFC

  1. click on the Start button

  2 from the Start Menu, click on all the programs of followed by accessories

  3. in the menu Accessories , right-click on command prompt option

  4. in the menu that appears, click on the option "Run as Administrator"

  5 If you have user account control (UAC) enabled you will be asked to consent to the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

  6. in the window prompt of commands , type: sfc/scannow , and then press enter

  7. a message is displayed to indicate that "the analysis of the system will start.

  8. be patient because the analysis may take some time

  9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue

  10. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.

  11. after the scan is finished, close the command prompt window reboot the computer and check.

  The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista.
