Windows 7 can not network with other

Hello

I spent 9 months trying to get 2 win7 computers talk to each other. I wonder if its actually not possible.

the reason why I have not set up a homegroup is that I want to add a mac and an old machine winxp to the network.

2 computers - a laptop computer and a desktop computer, the two running win7, both connected to the same router.
The laptop can sometimes see and read and write on the desktop

The Bureau may sometimes see the laptop, but not connect to it. Most of the time that he do not see.

The Office can be seen on the network, but cannot connect to its own hard disks via the network. "Network Error" check the spelling of the name. Otherwise, there could be a problem with your network. Click on "diagnose" - when I click on diagnose - "Troubleshooting couldn't identify the problem.

If I right click on the computers in the windows Explorer, they are both on the same workgroup.

In the network and sharing Center
Laptop base information and setting up of connections network - shows
This computer - Asus (router) - Internet

Basic network information desk and the installer connectsions - shows
This computer - network 5 (no idea what network 5's)-Internet

If I click on "View full map" of the network and sharing Center, computers appear on the diagram, but continuous available to change that is to say, sometimes the laptop seems to connect to the internet through the desktop computer and not the router

In the network and sharing Center if I clik on "Set up a new connection or network" a dialog box appears saying "choose the Wireless router or access point to set up" but nothing appears, it just freezes

Please can someone point me to a forum thread where someone else was having a similar problem and they have actually managed to solve

Thanks in advance

  • Windows 7 can not connect with the HP printer

    I have a HP Officejet 6500 E709n and I am running Windows 7 Professional on my laptop.  Recently, the printer no longer works and needed an updated driver.  When updating the driver, you must uninstall the previous software.  Once completed uninstalling the new updated driver installation failed.  I get a fatal error message, and after 2 hours with HP support make advanced remote troubleshooting, we found that, whenever I try a new device/printer, Windows 7 is rejected and not allowing the connection indicating the device is not signed digitally.  The problem is the device is digitally signed, but Windows 7 is not recognizing.  How can I get Windows 7 to recognize and allow my printer to work again?  I have tried both add wireless printer and plug the USB cable without success.

    DragDrop.png

    I came across a problem recently. I wanted to be able to use drag - and list controls dropEnabled property and (on the same canvas) use the functionality of drag-and-drop automatic implemented other components (in this case, a combination of movable labels that can drag a group component). I wanted the labels to be moved in the entire screen, but only fall on the part of the Group (NOT the list). The items in the components list were supposed to be interchangeable between the lists in the set of properties dragEnabled and dropEnabled to true. The problem is that when I drag the labels of the groups on the lists a null #1009 object reference error is thrown because the list does not try to calculate the index fall for labels. I know that I could work around the problem by setting dropEnabled = false on the lists and implement drag - move by hand, but I hope that both variants of drag-and-drop coexist in a spirit of flexibility.

    Any thoughts? Thank you very much!

    Kind regards

    Thilo

    When you delete something on a spark list you will need to provide a dragSource not null in the format 'itemsByIndex', if you change your code to something like this, it should work:

    protected function draggableLabel_mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {}
                   
    do some data to pass to the list
    var someData:Vector. = new Vector. ();
    someData.push ("hello world");
                   
    List is waiting for data to slip with the format "itemsByIndex".
    var dragData:DragSource = new DragSource();
    dragData.addData (someData, "itemsByIndex");
                   
    DragManager.doDrag (event.currentTarget IUIComponent, dragData, events);
    }

    Help, I've changed the root ESXi via powerCli password, now I can not connect with the web client or the console, but I can still connect to powerCli. The command I used was;

    SE connect-VIServer esxihostname-user root - password newpasswd

    This production network btw, I have connected to each host and run the above command, these ESXi hosts are not on a domain

    y at - it something I have left out. I really appreciate any assistance that you people can provide.

    Thank you, Joe

    It is probably a longshot, but a lot of things in the land of windows is not sensitive to capital letters as Unix is.  I wonder if your new password you put through powerCLI mixed uppercase in it and if the capitalization was abandoned by command windows powerCLI Analyzer, or he interpreted as all capitals or something.   If you can still get through the powerCLI you could try to reset the password again to something simple without capitalization mixed case and if your password on ESXi strategy requires a special character, try something different than a "$", like a "_" (I find that a '_' is less likely than some other special characters (, as a '-' or a ' / ' to cause problems with analyzers.).

    Edit:

    Another thing, you can try before playing with the password once again, is to create a different username ESXi using powerCLI and see if the password ends up what you think, it should be, and if you can get with the client vsphere using it.  In this way, you can find out if there are some problems with certain characters or Cap through command powerCLI Analyzer without losing your remaining root by powerCLI access.  After some tests, you can understand what went wrong with your initial password change and may be able to fix it with less risk of losing access.  I also assume that you can not create a new username on ESXi who is able to change the root password no matter what authority give you it, otherwise, you could create a new username with PowerCLI, then connect to the client vsphere with it and change the password to root from there.
