Why my streaming media guard function turn off by itself?

First of all, my firewall is controlled by Norton 360. But they say that's not their product that does, so I come to you for the answer. streaming media feature that enables or disables the media streaming in the network and sharing continues to fade, after I reset or when I sometimes restart my system or it comes will turn off by itself! How can I fix it? All my computers on this network, and sometimes, they all will turn off the sharing of multimedia files. I do not understand what is the cause or how to solve this problem, I ran Microsoft fixit to try to fix it without help, I contacted Norton without help. This is really frustrating to have to move forward and backward to enable multimedia networking file sharing and sharing.

  • Why my internet accounts automatically get disconnected after that my computer turns off by itself?

    I have a Compaq PC with processor Dual-Core AMD Athlon X 2 5000, and it runs Windows Vista Edition Home Premium... In my view, that is running Service Pack 2. I use the computer to check my e-mail, my YouTube and Facebook accounts (and possibly other accounts spread I connect to).

    I usually use Internet Explore to browse the web. Sometimes my computer turns off by itself due to overheating. But whenever when this happens, when I turn my computer back on and return to the use of the Internet, I've totally frustrated to find that all my accounts were automatically disconnected!

    Even when I check these boxes to keep me connected to these accounts when I turn on the computer again after a successful stop, my accounts still get disconnected!

    It only seems to happen when my computer turns off by itself without stopping... mainly due to overheating. When I turn on the computer again after a successful regular stop, my accounts are automatically saved on once again, due to activate me "Keep me connected" by checking these little boxes. But after a situation when the computer is off all the time (either by himself for a reason, either by me with strength to turn it off when my computer crashes), my accounts do not remain.

    How can I prevent my accounts automatically be disconnected so that whenever I start the computer, after it turns off by itself, my internet accounts turned on? There must be a patch for this embarrassing situation here on the internet.

    Perhaps because an improper shutdown / forced can inpact on different parameters.

    My Toshiba A110-160 turns off by itself (abruptly) when im making a dvd to divx (autogk for example) conversion.
    This has not happened before...
    I use a bios updated to v1.7 (the latest).
    Do you think that it is because of this? I also did an upgrade (2GB, 667 mhz) memory and I use ubuntu and windows xp.
    Any ideas?

    Hello

    I Don t have a clue why the machine will stop automatically and I can't give you a quick solution, but I can give you an idea how to make some accurate diagnosis:

    Remove the newly installed module and try again. Then give some feedback if it worked. If not, he should discuss more about this issue, would appreciate some comments from you.

  • Satellite P15-S470 it turns off by itself - overheating?

    Hello

    3-4 years old laptop Toshiba Satellite P15-S470 my father seems to be overheating because it turns off by itself. It can happen at any time: in Windows XP Media Center 2004 (SP2 and all updates), at the prompt of password of BIOS at idle, at Windows startup, etc.

    Also, I can feel the fan blowing hot air hard left, the area of the battery being hot and the CD/DVD ejected hot.
    Hot note does NOT mean too hot to touch with my hands/fingers.

    I used a flashlight to look through the dark wind, and he looked clean (not so dusty or obstructed upward). I removed a few small items to make more air space for the winds, and that seems to help after a few minutes.

    Is there a program/software for checking laptop temperature sensors? I checked the CMOS area, but you could not like office machines. Site Web de Toshiba does not have one either.

    Are there ways to remedy (out of warranty)? I guess that the fans are still working because I can hear it turn very hard (quieter, if it's cool). I'm afraid it will get worse when the weather warms (Los Angeles weather) in particular this weekend when temperatures reach near 100 degrees (F).

    It is only in low 70 in the kitchen downstair on a glass table. The laptop started doing this a few weeks ago, but it seems to get worse when the weather warms. In addition, the laptop is usually [powered on site thanks to its power adapter.

    Battery use is rare (will try to remove the battery, if the problem occurs again to see if it causes the problem).

    Thank you in advance. :)

    Hello

    You said that the laptop is about 3-4 years of age?
    Hey dude, it is a very long time and in my opinion, the laptop must be cleaned professionally.
    For me it s a clear case. the fans don't run with maximum efficiency and therefore may not cool properly the laptop parts.

    I recommend contacting specialist and portable and it assistance. He could clean the module cooling grids and the fan inside.

  • C50-A-1HF satellite will turn off by itself after 2 seconds

    Hello

    the laptop turns off by itself after 2 seconds when I turn it on. This happens if I shutted down or choosed hibernate before (Win8.1).

    This means hibernation is not at all useable.

    The next time I turn it on it works quite normal! Sleep mode works as well. Standby mode it is ready for use after open them both as a repetitive. Fascinating!

    I looked on all the settings of the BIOS, but I found nothing what could be the reason for this behavior.

    Perhaps there is a correlation with another strange behavior. The battery will not be charged over 80%. I do not use the green mode. I have to turn off the laptop and remove the battery completely for a minute. After inserting and booting Win8.1 what it charges again at 100%.

    The discharge time is approximately 3.5 hours. Otherwise, the battery is ok.

    But after the next discharge up to 10% charge that up to 80% more.

    These two effects are not normal. But I don't think (or better, I hope) that there is a material defect.

    Is there a chance does not post the laptop to a repair service?

    Best regards

    Onurbi

    Hey man it are so strange problems and it's not easy to say what to do. All you can do is to install the original recovery image and test with the settings once more, of course without changing anything or install updates or additional applications.

    If possible to do this and test it for a while.
    > Is there a chance does not post the laptop to a repair service?
    As you probably know your possibilities to do something about this are very limited and if there is permanent problem I think you should contact the closest service Toshiba and clarify all of this.
    You have the new laptop model and it should work properly. If you are not happy and there are service problems Toshiba should take are about it and help you.

  • Laptop will not turn off by itself

    I have a HP Pavilion 15 - e097sa that is currently running Windows 8.1. When using the battery, it is not usually turned off by itself. I have to press on and hold the power button until it turns off. When the power supply is connected, it shut down normally. There is no error message and it just turns back normally afterwards.

    I contacted HP Support and the solution is to disable a quick start, but thanks anyway

  • My acer aspire AS5742 guard sudenly turned off loptop

    I apologize because im new here, I could be on the wrong thread or whatever it is.

    So my acer loptop AS5742 I used it for 5 years now and I don't think that his old man he needs of recycled. The problem, it happened a few days that I have installed an adobe application, then I restarted the computer after that then the loptop guard turn off without any warning, but he ends up by lights after 3 or 4 seconds. But I was able to restore to a previous point where he worked. The problem occurs whenever I'm working (browsing, games, videos etc. on Plug and battery.) My battery is also broken, it drains really quick. And I have overheating issues too, but I think this isn't the problem because ive check the nucleus of just temperature uaing before it exploded and is no longer heating.
    Windows 8
    Intel core i3
    4 GB of ram
    hard drive 500
    Intel graphics card

    And sometimes a few restarts because it automatically turns its self on after the abrupt shut down ot watch lines like static on the logo of windows 8 and through the screen. I hope theres a few solutions thx ^^

    Do you want to say she suffers 'spontaneous restart', as we say in the Guild? You say that you restore to an earlier point and the problem disappeared? Then came back? I understand well didn'tI. In the case of the probem on battery only, of course exclude the AC charger. In such circumstances where heat is not known to be the issue, I would find programs to test the RAM and hard drive sectors. This as a starting point. You want to be able to exclude... then you rule finally in.

  • Slate 8 Pro guard blocking turned off during playback

    My HP (slate 8 - Pro) table that keeps blocking off after a few minutes even if sleep is set to 30 minutes. After a few minutes it just close the page and goes back to the home screen.  Received from the centre of Service of Calexico in lieu of my original Tablet.  I get no error message before he stops and outside apps have not made any changes. Any ideas what the problem might be?

    Hey @gsparky ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that your Tablet HP Slate Pro 8 is automatically shut down.

    Can you please clarify if the slate is to be completely turned off (to hold the power button to wake it up) or if the application closes (taking you to the home screen)?

    That you happens to all applications or is it only in a particular application?

    Try to clear the cache on the Tablet, there may be damage to the data stored in one of the applications or OS causing accidents. To do this, go to settings > storage > cached data. Touch it should give you the option to clear all the cache.

    Please clarify the question or let me know if that helps.

  • Why windows update only after I turn off pc?

    Click Start disable updates of windows now.

    Many files that modify the Windows updates are used by the system in normal operation.  Cannot modify these files when they are in use.  Thus, the updated hourly changes after booting the system, but before Windows itself actually starts.  What you see when you turn off the computer is the preparation for the update will take place the next time you start.
