Windows 8 is to lose my VERY limited and expensive bandwidth!

-All right, so until yesterday, I lived in the city and was given unlimited for my internet so I was not having problems, but I just moved in the country and the internet available only cost me about $10 per GB of data. I barely used the internet at all, and yet the use of my data continues to skyrocket as well when I do nothing. Today alone he has used more than 300 MB and I've been on the internet for a value of 25 mb of data max...

I already disabled live tiles, updates to the store and the windows updates, but somewhere, something is wasting all my expensive bandwidth.
My wife has a laptop computer with windows 8, which does the same thing.
I have lived in the country and is this expensive internet before with my windows 7 pc and I never had any problems like this.
I desperately need this resolved because I can't afford the huge internet Bill it will cause.

  • Very limited iTunes

    So, I recently installed Itunes 12.4.1.6 under Windows, and as with every update to Itunes, I have to go back and everything set up so that I have it in a layout I prefer.  However, with this 12 of Itunes, I find it is extremely limited.  I have a point of view of my library and album reviews.  I can't view my library as a list of all of my music in the order.  It makes it extremely tedious going through each album individually.   I've seen videos on how to put these back views, but my Itunes doesn't have the options I am told to use.  I have no tab playlist at the top where it is normally with my Itunes Store Radio Music, etc... I have no drop-down list to be considered as lists or songs...  This is what im stuck with, a very limited version of itunes?  Or is there a way to bring these options?  I really grew up in Itunes, I'm feeling just with each update of the product I am being led to do not want to use it.

  • I have Windows Vista and you want to know, if I switch to Windows 7, will I lose my files, programs, settings and virus protection?

    Currently I have Windows vista. I want to upgrade to windows 7. I would lose my files, programs, settings, and virus protection

    original title: upgrade

    If you do an in place upgrade your files and programs will remain on the computer. If you perform a custom installation, you will need to back up your files and reinstall your programs.

    Installation - 'upgrade' means what?
    Upgrade means that you can install Windows 7 simply by inserting the Windows 7 upgrade software in the DVD drive of your PC and follow the instructions on the screen. While you are not required to backup and reinstall your files, or reinstall your programs, it is a very good idea to back up your files and settings before you start any upgrade to the software. Get more information on the software updates and best practices .

    Installation - what does "Custom (Clean)" Mean?
    A custom (clean) installation clears the contents of the hard drive of your PC. Your files, settings, and programs will not be transferred to Windows 7. This means that to install Windows 7, you must:

    • Back up any files and settings you want to keep

    • Install Windows 7

    • Reinstall all your files

    • Reinstall all the programs you want to use.

    These four steps take time, skills, techniques and Windows Easy Transfer can help. However, if you are not comfortable with this process, please consider having the installation carried out by a local service provider.

    If you are running Windows Vista , in some cases you can proceed directly to Windows 7, and in other cases, you must perform a custom installation. The following table shows what editions of Windows Vista can be upgraded to Windows 7.

    Windows Vista Home Basic

    Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Ultimate

    Windows Vista Edition Home Premium

    Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Ultimate

    Windows Vista Business

    Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Ultimate

    Windows Vista Ultimate Edition

    Windows 7 Ultimate

  • SVE14123CNB with camera of 64-bit windows 8 is to give a very bad image quality.

    My sony vaio SVE14123CNB with camera of 64-bit windows 8 is to give a very bad image quality.

    I have compained several times to sony, but they said that there is problem with windows 8 and this laptop model.

    I think that this response is not the solution to the problem, as it is my work that still hinder once. This laptop has with exmor HD webcam, so we expect the quality of the picture from the webcam to be strong, but it is dark, blurry, vary hard to identify someone even. It is even lower than some old VGA cam.

    Please provide a rigid solution.

    Hello krishna_18,

    The most common cause of this problem is a poorly lit room.  Please try to use the camera in well-lit areas.  Since there is no light or flash on the camera device, it is not able to work as well in dark situations.

    As to the answer before someone gave you "problem with Windows 8";  What they probably meant is that this laptop does not come with any software the camera included.  Therefore, the "Camera" app Windows 8 is what is natively provided and used.  This application is very limited in options and resolution.  Using an alternative app camera of your choice can also improve options, parameters, and results.

  • Always have 2 tabs FF15.0.1 and start tabs w/previous/win. No matter when I start FF the second window always loses the 1 tab and put the '+' to the extreme left.

    When I close FF the active window becomes #1 window when I restart. No matter that one becomes a window #2 the first pinned tab is missing and the '+' is on the far left. Same thing happens if the tabs are not pinned. If I close FF and cause a switch between W #1 and 2 W, W #2 loses this 1 tab and w #1 missing tab reappears.

  • Satellite A200-1AX: Win7 has very limited screen resolution

    ?:| Can someone help me please?

    I have a SCREEN RESOLUTION (1280 x 800) after that I went to w7, before I can get about 1600 x 1280 when I was in very limited vista. I lost my vista recovery disk so I decided to go with w7, but after that I did some installations/updates to update for all my drivers again my screen resolution gives me the size 1280 x 800 maximum.
    Anyone? Please? I need your suggestions...

    -J' have a Satellite A200 1AX (recently moved from vista to w7)
    -Screen: 15.4 "
    -My graphics card is ATI Mobility Radeon HD2600.
    -I just downloaded the latest driver from ATI.

    Please tell me what I'll do.
    Thanks in advance guys...: D
    Jeje

    > Until I can get around 1600 x 1280 when I was in vista
    I can't believe that why?
    Because the screen internal 15.4 "WIDE XGA supports a maximum resolution of 1280 x 800.
    Max which is possible on the internal display, and as a result, you will not be able to choose a higher resolution on the internal display.

    The resolution of the external display may be higher but not the resolution of the screen internal.
