    Hello

    Laptop?

    Because the keyboard is integrated in the housing of the computer laptop, something as simple as the slight vibration when typing can cause the touchpad the cursor or initiate a click, depending on the sensitivity of the touchpad settings.

    You must disable the touchpad when typing. Most modern laptops provide an option or a keyboard shortcut to get there.

    The following keyboard shortcuts have been known to disable the touchpad on different systems. Press and hold down the Fn key and then press F3, F4, F6, F7, F9, or F12 to disable the Touchpad.

    Windows XP will 'end of life' in April 2014. This does not mean that it will stop working, just that Microsoft won't support it somehow later, which includes the updates of Windows. You will not even be able to get paid the support of Microsoft beyond the end of life date.

    The inevitable consequence is that software and hardware vendors will stop to support also. This includes antivirus software vendors. As time passes after the end of life date, your PC will become still more vulnerable to malware, especially if connected to the internet.

    This forum is not "Microsoft", a collection of people from all backgrounds (but mostly HE) who are willing to help people like you. While I sympathize with your financial situation, there is nothing that can be done on Microsoft's decision. Your only choices are to...

    • Get a PC with a version of Windows that is still supported (2nd hand to save money?)
    • Run the increasing risk of getting malware after end of life date
    • Disconnect from the internet in order to minimize the risk of getting malware

  • Sony Auto Launcher popup - how to stop

    I get this pop-up and it really disrupts my workflow. I tried to click always allow and it is sill above and it still is constantly repeated. I have found no application under the name of "SonyAutoLauncher" and I would like to get rid of him. Any suggestions?

    Hi Williama_The_II,

    I'm sorry to hear that you are having these problems with your iMac. If you periodically receive these alerts, but are unable to find any associated application from Sony, you can check in the launch Agents at the level of the system folder. You can do this by going into menu go to the Finder menu, then selecting go to folder... and entering the following (without the quotation marks): "/ library/LaunchAgents / '. It should open a folder which can have several or many elements; Look for anything that can be associated with the Sony software. Please let us know if you are able to isolate.

  • How to stop windows 7 from automatically saving a copy of the file to the library?

    I have a desktop hp brand new high.  I installed Microsoft Office 2010.  Whenever I save a file, photo, etc, it saves a copy of the "library".  How it stop doing that?  I read about using the library and he said I could save a copy in the library, but it does it automatically.  Is there a way to stop this?  A I inadvertently set up in this way?  If I delete a file from my documents, it is removed from the library and vice versa.  From what I've read, it should be and the options, not automatic.  If you can help, please dumb it down a lot because I'm not well versed in computer talk.  Thank you very much!

    The library is in fact that index files and in showing them, not actually recording a copy I think. With Explorer open where you can see libraries, choose a category from the left such as the images pane and then right-click and choose Properties. In the window that opens, you should see your C:\ User\Pictures folder that is listed in the index. Click Select, and then click Remove. Now library should not index files. Select each category for example Documents, etc and do the same thing.

  • Windows Explorer for Windows 7 - How to stop automatically sort my files

    I have Windows 7.  Explorer Windows automatically sorts my files in each folder.  I put in "sort by..." Name ', so for now he is sorting alphabetically, but no matter what I put in 'Grading', it does it automatically.  But I want to be able to move the files to the folder in different orders, and then once I'm satisfied with the order, then I can change the name of each file and then choose to classify them alphabetically or otherwise.

    For example, this is useful for a folder full of photos.  Let's say I have a folder with 50 photos in there of holiday, and I would like to re - order these photos, but I want to play visually with different orders until I have decide to order, I like most.  So I want to move each file/photo until I like the Decree.  To do this, I would open this particular folder in Windows Explorer, then select the "Large icons" view and then moving the photos until I like order.  And then once I have pictures in the order I want, then I would like to rename each picture (1, 2, 3, etc.) and then Windows Explorer say "sort by...» Nu.  That's how it was on my old computer, but I got XP and now I have Windows 7, but I can't imagine that Windows 7 would not let me do the same thing.  But the way it works for me now, Windows Explorer comes automatically orders/sorts my files depending on the option "sort by" I chose.  So if I change the name of the files (from 'Photo #25' to ' Photo #10 "'), it automatically goes this photo between" Photo #09 "and" Photo #11 ".»»  And if I try to move 'Photo #10' next to say "#37 picture"to see how they look next to each other, it won't let me. "

    so... Is it possible to have Windows Explorer "NOT" sort my files until I have to say?

    Thank you very much!

    See auto arrange links below - it is possible to disable.

    Microsoft has deliberately removed the ability to turn off the auto arrange. Microsoft's response:

    Can I manually organize files in folders?

    Unfortunately when Microsoft Windows Explorer, they made some pretty horrible decisions - which many people complained. There are a lot of other managers of files available, as well free and for a price. One of them might be easier to use and the characteristics you want, here is a list of the most that are available:

    How to fix the Bug of scrolling in the left pane
    See the bottom of this post for help with the bug of scrolling in the left pane.

    The most important features that need to be returned to Windows Explorer:

    (1) the option to turn off the auto arrange.

    (2) fix the Bug of scrolling in the left pane: If you view a folder and expand in the left pane to display its subfolders, the folder is annoyingly prefer to the bottom of the component causing the subfolders do not appear, making it difficult to work with.

    (3) when several files are selected they should stay selected when changing the sort order (ex: name of size). Maintenance of the files selected in the sort should be a requirement, and this feature should not have been removed.

    (4) the option to remember the view settings of each folder (Recalling the positions and sizes of the individual folder window).

    (5) the option to remove 'Complete the selection of lines' to see in detail. "Selection of whole lines" is very annoying when the file is complete and has no empty space to click on. Also, when dragging / delete the file to another folder - if you release the on the line of a subfolder or file de.exe/.zip/.rar 'selection of whole lines' causes the file to be moved in the subfolder ou.exe/.zip/.rar instead file the file provided.

    (6) a search engine with all the advanced search options. No required syntax.

    (7) the option to always display free disk size space and record on the State and/or the details pane toolbar. Also always automatically show the size of the selected files (when several files are selected it will not show the total size).

    (8) the ability to scroll the window/pane mouse is with the mouse wheel, even if this window/pane is not selected.

    Inform you want Windows explorers returned Microsoft functions:

    Given that many people seem to agree that some or all of the changes made to Windows Explorer were actually less friendly user, you can go to the Windows 7 comments page and (politely) to let them know your suggestions to improve:

    http://mymfe.Microsoft.com/Windows%207/feedback.aspx?formid=195

    Note: do not have the message that is too long, there is a size limit for your message, even if page does not tell you on this subject. Also, do not just copy and paste from the list above - they'll think that the same person is repeatedly submit comments.

    Using the classic interface to restore functionality of Windows Explorer

    After you have installed the free Classic Shell , you can customize Windows Explorer more closely to how you want it, the quote below is just a way to do it. Click here to see some of the options that you can customize, and here is the FAQ page.

    A solution that worked for the restoration of some features.

    (1) install the free classic Shell. It's free, completely customizable and works like a mod for Windows Explorer, rather than a full blown replacement. Personally, I did not fit the classic Start Menu option, but you can if you wish.
    (2) restart the computer.
    (3) launch Windows Explorer and turn on "Always show Menus" (it's just for the configuration, you can disable it again later if you want).
    (4) make a right click on the menu bar and turn in the "Classic Explorer bar. This adds a series of icons for cut/copy/paste in Explorer. Basically, it also adds the "Configuration" icon
    5) go to the configuration and from there you can edit things to your heart's content. To kill the horrible record-jumping 7 Windows, place you Vista in 'Style Navigation pane. You can even go more retro and hit return to XP mode if you want (this adds lines to the tree of folders and adds a classic icon "+" for the expansion of folders).
    (6) set the parameters of other institutions. I have so that the bit "more details" in the dialogues of copy is automatically extended, I checked the option "display free space and size of the file in the status bar" (no need to right click on the drive to see how much space is left), personally, I decided to stay with the "overwrite file" dialog box Windows 7 style (the default is the simplest dialogue style Vista/XP) , and I went for the Windows Vista style folders display that looks about the same as the view from Windows 7, but get rid of the horrible jump.

    After that, you can activate the toolbar and menus walk back to explore if you wish. Explorer Windows seems largely the same, but folders is no longer jumping around.

    Now if only MS allows to code correctly so that we don't have to mess with third-party applications to get Windows actually works...

  • iBooks automatically starts an audio book... How to stop? Help please - thx!

    I have this problem as well on an iPhone 6.

    What you say makes no sense and I question the validity of these comments.  Update to Windows 8.1 will do more good than harm.  Very few people who have updated have experienced problems, so comments to keep your receipt no logic.

    Here's something you can do.  Download Macrium reflect free and create a hard disk image on an external hard drive, don't forget to create the rescue disk.  Once done, update your system to 8.1.  If you have any problems, then you will be OK.  If it doesn't work or you have problems you can restore the backup of the image on your system that will put the computer to Windows 8 with no ill effects.  An image backup of your system from time to time is the best thing you can do.  You will have no problems with the help of recovery disks, reinstalling programs and data.  Many people use this method and have no regrets.

    SFC/scannow is a very useful command that you can use in any version of Windows. When the SFC (System File Checker) command is used with the/scannow switch, the tool analyzes all the important files of Windows on your computer and replace if necessary.
    Missing and the corruption of the operating system (like many DLLs) files are probably the main cause of the major problems of Windows. In view of this, plus the fact that the SFC/scannow is completely automatic and very easy to use, the tool should be usually one of your top not troubleshooting.
