  • Windows 7 Ultimate told to updates, but nothing happens

    I have fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit and I tried to do the first update, but when I click search for updates, it is said of the updates, but nothing happens, green line retains circiling arround for hours and nothig. Can someone help me?

    Thanks much for the reply, but I managed to fix it myself. I put windows automatic update options, left my PC for a few hours, and when I had to stop, said updates are ready to install, and after restarting it installed updates. After that I changed the update options to never check the update and check the updates manually and it works perfectly now. Obviously, after having install Windows and you want to first update should be set to automatic and stay on the line for a few hours, after the first update, you can change the options to update at your convenience, in my case manually check for updates.

  • Windows media playerwill not sync with my Sansa I plugged it, created a playlist, then clicked on 'sync' but nothing happens

    I created a playlist in Windows media.  I have connected my Sansa MP3 device via USB connection cable and sound the sync button to copy the playlist but nothing happens.  I checked my Sansa and it has not automatically copied to the other.  How can I go there when the sync button does not work?

    Hello Jane136,

    Ø you get an error when you try to run synchronize your device with the media player?

    Ø have you tried to format your Portable device and then try to synchronize?

    Ø you have the latest version of the software or the driver installed on your computer to the MP3 player?

    Try to copy the files of music from Windows Explorer. Most MP3 players will appear as a "disk" on your computer, and you can browse the files on them by simply opening.

    I suggest that you format your Portable device, and then try to sync with Media Player. To format the laptop drive:

    1. right click on the Portable media player.

    2. Select the option.

    3. choose quick format and click ok.

    Thank you

  • Firefox opens but nothing don't watch/load in the window, the buttons of the menu even not

    I open Firefox & a window opens but nothing does not charge or show, not even the menu buttons. Sometimes when you click on blindly around some menus will open but options beyond that don't produce anything either.

    I have (not necessarily in this order):
    Uninstalled Firefox, deleted all the other files, then reinstalled (twice)... did not help.
    Revenue from PC back to before Firefox updated... did not work.
    Uninstalled, debugged my PC, reinstalled... did not work.
    Disabled the firewall & changed the settings to make sure nothing was blocking it to work... did not work.

    At this point, after the support of Mozilla Surf site & not finding anyone else who has this exact question I don't know what else to do. I love Firefox and want to continue using it (I HATE using Internet Explorer), but the only other alternative I can think of is to use Google Chrome or IE.

    I have Windows 7, use McAfee, & SpyHunter. My laptop is under 5 years old & I keep reg. thing updated, so I don't think that anything should be obsolete or incompatible.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Currently in version 33, Firefox has implemented a new faster way to loading Web pages. This new feature is called OMTC. However, there are still tweaks to the Mozilla developers make this.

    There is a known issue that Mozilla works very hard to fix: If you have black pages on some sites, here's what you can do to avoid the problem in the meantime:

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • Click the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    To disable hardware acceleration

    • Click the menu button

      then select Options.

    • In the window of Firefox Options (or preferences), click on the Advanced tab, and then select general.
    • You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.

    Now, quit Firefox, wait a few seconds and start normally.

    Please let us know if this solves the problem. Engineering is also collecting more information on the question would require that you fill out this survey

    I should also mention that other users with this problem had a card intel integrated graphics hd with a former current driver. Until Mozilla comes with a fix, if you want hardware acceleration in Firefox, you can try updating your driver through the appropriate link below to see if that helps:

  • Windows Store promp 8.1 Windows Installer, but nothing happens

    My computer with Windows 8 keeps prompting me to install Windows 8.1. I go to the store as he tells me, and I click to download it. He acts as if she done something and tells me that I can continue to work on my computer. But nothing happens and before you know it my computer is once again inviting me to reinstall Windows 8.1.  Can anyone help me please with this problem?

    Hello

    There have been similar problems happening when you use a cell phone type of internet connection.

    Maybe even fixed line...

    One of the workarounds I've read is to start downloading from another connection, pause the download bit after it starts and then continue with the original connection, if desired.

    He has also had similar problems with 3rd party security programs. If you have one, turn it off...

    In some cases the program must actually be deleted with a removal tool, not just uninstalled...

  • I click on the Windows Explorer icon to access my files and libraries, but nothing happens.

    Hello

    I can't access my photos, videos, documents, etc. because I can't in my files anyway I have try. If I click on the icon in my taskbar Windows Explorer, it highlights as if it will open, but this just highlight fades and nothing happens as if I has not yet clicked (no error notice or anything).

    When this happened enough times, I tried entering my Start menu and search bar "search programs and files". He showed me the results of research (such as the names of files in the start menu), so I know everything is still, but nothing happens when I click on them.

    However, I can still download files online when a site gives me the ability to click a button in the Web site to do.

    All this happens on and outside, and I don't know what are the is or what causes that actually get better at random.

    Also: Something that occurs when Windows Explorer is working is that any attempt to open My Documents is blocking my computer. I can no longer access my documents unless I can search in the start menu (which, even once, does not always). I resorted to store my documents online because of this.

    If anyone can help me to solve these problems, I would be very happy! I need my cell phone all the time while I'm in College, and while I'm at home.
