The short answer is no other post recommend that you ask the laptop on your insurance. It of a good idea to install prey or other protection software against theft on portable computers that will allow you to lock the remote computer and follow where it was stolen. However, even these measures will not help if the thief erases the hard drive and re - install Windows.

  • You can play itunes from a computer via a Sony blu - ray with a wi - fi connection?

    I would like to listen to the playlist on my desktop that is connected to a wireless router. Can my blu - ray receive and play this music? How do I configure this?

    Thank you-

    Cindy

    You can set up your computer as a DLNA server and access playlist from iTunes in the Blu - ray player using the DLNA feature. iTunes software can stream music using the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) technology if it is connected to a file-sharing application.

    Some examples of file sharing applications (Media Server):

    • Windows Media Player
    • Software VAIO Media Server
    • Media Server DLNA Serviio
    • Twonky suite
    • EyeConnect UPnP AV Streaming media

    Instructions for the Computer Configuration such as DLNA server are mentioned on the technical support article below:

    http://www.KB.Sony.com/selfservice/documentLink.do?externalId=C1019860

    NOTE: Not all Blu - ray players are compatible DLNA. To see if your player is compatible DLNA, check the features that are available through the manuals/Specs/warranty section after you enter model # Blu - ray drive in the link mentioned below:

  • Homegroup is very slow. Loading files from another computer is very long and I can't watch movies on the wireless using the homegroup.

    Group residential slow and other problems with it

    Hello!

    I have 3 Windows 7 PC-s (office #1, #2 desktop and laptop). I created HomeGroup and join all computers, so I can access the files on each of them. But my problem is the following: homegroup is very slow. Loading files from another computer is very long and I can't watch movies on the wireless using homegroup, because it is slow and every two seconds of loading film. And also needed a few minutes to open the pictures (more than 10 GB in all folders) to a folder in the other PC. Why is this work so slow? I don't think there is a problem with slow wireless router, because I can replace my old Linksys WRT54GL Linksys E4200, which is able to transfer video HD 3D such as Linksys provide. What should I do to fix this? Should I change all the settings in Windows, perhaps in the router...?
    And why my laptop is not always visible to the other PC to homegroup? He see two others and two other sees, but they are not portable. This happens sometimes. But then I still share with homegroup libraries to my laptop and there still other computers see it and all shared libraries. Where is the problem? I also try to change the HomeGroup services automatically, but this does not solve the problem.
    If I forgot something to write, or you need more information, do not hesitate to ask.
    I'd appreciate any help really.

    Hello

    Manually check manufacturers sites WiFi because pilots offered through
    Updates Windows will most often not be later (MS is far behind certifying)
    drivers and many manufacturers do not quickly submit newer versions or not at all). See
    Manual driver update of the methods below.

    The question could be WiFi in fact however try to device (hardware)
    update the driver first.

    What antivirus/security is used? Some of those who will cause problems with the
    Homegroup. Since it happens more often on a single computer that on there
    a check.

    From this link:

    Homegroup: frequently asked questions (also shows how delete and remove homegroup)
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/HomeGroup-frequently-asked-questions

    "Only people who belong to the homegroup can see shared libraries. You can also share libraries or files and individual folders with specific people in your homegroup, rather than share them with everyone. For more information, see libraries with your homegroup sharing and keep files and folders to be shared with a specific residential group. »

    Share files with anyone
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/share-files-with-someone

    ==================

    How to upgrade manually the drivers:

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
    below is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
    found)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version.
    (Those become your fonts of rescue system manufacturer).

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as windows
    7 love the updated drivers.

    I hope this helps.

  • Oracle Database XE - apex on Windows 7 - the problem with the connection from another computer on Windows 7

    Hello

    I started with Oracle Database 11g, with apex XE, fact the upgrade of the Apex 4.2.6 and to develop a small Application.

    I wanted to connect to my computer (with step of database on this subject) from another computer Windows 7 B.

    So I put Firefox: //A:8080/apex but I have only received a timeout.

    Of course, on both computers there is a firewall of windows running, so I stopped on both systems, the firewall, but it is always the same.

    In Explorer windows running on computer B, I can see data from computer A and both computers are in the same home-net group. (Sorry for my bad English).

    Is there anyone who cann tell me how to get the connection running?

    Maybe I saw the info on this in the textbooks, if it is there, please give me a hint.

    If yours is a copy retail, you don't and I don't need to.

    But if yours is an OEM copy (for example if it came pre-installed on)
    your computer, you can not install it on another computer. Your OEM
    license restricted for the first computer, on which it is installed and it
    can never be legally moved to another.
