FIOS not working on new computer

I have had Verizon FIOS for 3 or more years. The browser supplied by Verizon crashed 2 years ago and Verizon said it was out of warranty. I decided to try hooking up my desktop directly with the cable from the wall jack. It worked and I was able to use FIOS that way wiithout replacing the browser.
Now I have bought a new desktop. I plugged in the cable from the wall jack and I cannot get on the Internet.
I can plug the cable into my laptop and get on the Internet as I am now.
Any suggestion on what I can do to get the Internet working on the desktop?

This problem is usually a result of not releasing the DHCP lease on the old computer or router before connecting the new one.
VZ's DHCP lease interval is 2 hours, so this problem should have cleared by the time you read this.
If it hasn't cleared, this FAQ may help:
How do I clear my DHCP lease
If it hasn't cleared, another thing you can try is to reconnect the old desktop. Verify that it's connection is active, then do an IPCONFIG /RELEASE (or equivalent command depending on your OS). The new computer should then be able to obtain a DHCP lease.

Flash Player not working on new computer

I just purchased a new computer; HP Pavilion 23-g010 All-in-One. 64 bit Windows 8.1 When I try to play my games on facebook it says that I need to install Adobe Flash Player. When I follow the prompts the computer shows a pop up that says it's already installed. I check all your trouble shooting requests and none of them work as the computer pop up continues to say that it is not needed eg; updates. Active x is ok. What should I try next? Thanks for any input.

if you are running Internet Explorer 9, please see this post( it may pertain to your situation):

LTS kernel not working on new computer

I recently purchased a new computer and installed arch on it. The stock kernel works fine, but I would like to use the lts-kernel and thats where the problems begin. When seeing the shell for the first time the text is not very clear and it seems to be a problem with the graphics settings. I have a GeForce GT610 GPU and have installed nouveau drivers.
Dmesg tells me the following:
[ 36.332055] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16

I have tried using the official nvidiaa drivers, but the same problem occurs, and besides I would rather use open source drivers.
Anyone who has an idea of whats causing me problems? Any help would be much appreciated. Is there any additional information I can give you which could help locate the error?

that's probably not what you're looking for, but i would recomend not to use the LTE kernel. i've tried it a few times (because of some overheating-after-suspend/resume issue), but i always ended up with more problems than i had with the current kernel -- which has been exceptionally stable for the last 1.5 years i've been using arch.
i think LTE may be fine if you run a server without fancy graphics and a very limited set of packages/services. generally things get fixed for the current kernels much faster than for LTE, in my experience.

Password not working on new computer

New computer, transferred files from old iMac and now cannot log in with same password. Same faceplate is shown but password does not work. No options given to change

First, make sure caps lock is not on.
Another reason why your password might not be recognized is that the keyboard layout (input source) has been switched without your realizing it. At the login screen, you can cycle through the available layouts by pressing the key combination command-space or command-option-space. See this support article.
If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. In the window that opens, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
*Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.

Sync did not work on new computer and original computer is broken.

I always synced Firefox on my original computer, clicking it once a day on the little menu on the top right, on the sync buttton with my e-mail beside it. I had all options checked (passwords, history, bookmarks, etc). Then, my computer broke, and it is a hard drive problem so it will come back completely erased.
Now, I accessed another computer on Firefox and Sync did not work at all. None of my information was saved, even when I click on Sync.
Both computers are Macs, one running on 10.6.8 and the other (broken) ran on Yosemite. Both had Firefox on the New Sync.
Please and thanks.

This game was designed for Windows 95. Many older games wont run under the NT kernel (under XP and Vista) unless you use emulation such as DOSBox.
You could try setting the game to run in Windows 98 compatibility mode (Right click the games EXE file, choose Properties -> Compatibility Tab).
Otherwise you may need to install Win95/98, and possibly use an older Video Card since the display drivers change so rapidly and drop legacy features not used anymore.

Authorization not working on new computer; can't play music!

I moved all of my music from my old computer to my new computer, and I did so using my iPod and the instructions that Apple provides on their website. All of the music shows up in iTunes on the new computer, but it won't play. I get a pop-up indicating that I need to authorize this computer to play whatever song I have selected, but even after it tells me "Authorization Successful, You have authorized two out of five computers," I cannot play the music. I have tried everything humanly possible to fix the problem, to no avail. Can anyone help? This is very frustrating.
Windows XP

Suedarn,
When you bought and downloaded the episodes, you got what you paid for. When you goto another computer you can't redownload them, you have to transfer the file from the old PC to the new one or make a backup of what you bought so when your PC crashes, you can reload the PC with a backup.
If you only saved the "Programs" folder and not the "My Music" folder where iTunes puts all its bought songs at, then your most likly out of luck. You can try to email the Music storee to see if they will set up a "Re download" of your lost episodes and download them using "Check for purchases" under the advance menu in iTUnes. Just keep in mind there under no obligation to do so, it states on there site if you loose it you have to buy it again. I had a system failer and emailed them and LUCKLY they offered a re download option for me to get my songs back and I made a backup ASAP
Heres a link to email the music store http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/download/
Heres a link on how to backup purchases in iTunes http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/musicstore/backup/

Itunes not working on new computer

My old computer got fried and I just hooked up my new computer (pc-xps8500) and down loaded the latest version of itunes. When i opened it up my library was empty. I check and it says my computer is authorized. Thanks in advance.

Your library will only be where you put it.
It will not magically appear on your new computer.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer for this very occasion. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to back up, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Rs232 not working on new computer?

I had a working program running over RS232 to control some pumps on another computer, however when I run it on the new computer I get no communication with my device. It is the same setup, same configuration and everything. Nothing has changed to the program except the computer it is connected to. Any thoughts on what is going on? I can control the device perfectly fine via ASCII commands from the hyperterminal program on windows xp however Labview has no effect on the pump.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

do you have any link to a manual for that pump
Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
(Sorry no Labview "brag list" so far)

Hard drive broke. ipod not working with new computer

Hello,
My computer hard drive recently died on me.
I got a new hard drive installed and I downloaded a new version of itunes (I think the latest) but when I connect my ipod to my computer, although it turns on the ipod, my computer isn't reading the ipod. I tunes isn't being started up and when I start it up manually it doesn't read my ipod either.
Someone at work here suggested it may be that the version of itunes I have installed is not compatible with the ipod I have. My ipod is a couple of years old at least. Can that be possible?
Any help greatly appreciated.

I have the exact same problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Help--Touch 3g not working on new computer, "device malfunction"

I'm posting for my daughter, away at college and totally at a loss.
Her 3rd gen iPod touch was working fine her at home on her 10 yr old Sony Vaio with WinXP SP2. Her itunes on that computer is Version 10.1--I just checked.
She is now at college and has connected her Touch to a brand new Dell computer (which is running WinXP SP3 @ daughter's request) which has iTunes v. 10.5.3 installed. A meesage comes up that the "device has mafunctioned...USB..." So she tried all 7 USB slots on her tower, and nothing changed. We know the USB drives work fine for other hardware. Tried a different connector cord, with no luck. Up until this point she had been charging her Touch with a wall charger; she hasn't synced orupdated for ages. She did connect her Touch to a friend's Macbook last Thanksgiving and downloaded a few songs onto her Touch.
Any suggestions? We do have a warranty on the Touch, but not sure if that's the issue. Is there a checklist of what to do first, second, third, etc. to diagnose?

Hi ,
Have you tried to reset the network settings as below:
Note: Resetting the network settings will clear all WiFi passwords and refresh device network connections.
From the home screen, tap Settings.
Scroll down to, then tap General.
Scroll down to, then tap Reset.
Tap Reset Network Settings.
Tap Reset Network Settings to confirm.
Note: If a security code is enabled, this will need to be entered between steps 4 and 5.
Is the phone EE branded also?
Thanks.

Diablo 1 not working at all, 12 year old game does not work on new computer

Hello, I have a Toshiba Satellite P200 with Windows Vista 32 bit, it has a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 video card. I also have Direct x 10 installed which according to the manufacturers of my video card is compatible. I have run a game test which was included with the CD and it says everything is o.k. But it is still coming up with this error. "Diablo was unable to properly intialize your video card using directX" then it tells me to update my directx which i have done. check and update my driver for my video card and make sure its compatiable which i have done and know it is. I have been to Blizzard Games and they have said that can not help me and i will have to go to the manufacturer of the video card. I Went to them and they said because it was a laptop they can not help me with this and told me to goto the manufacturer of my laptop which i am doing at the moment, but if anyone else has had this problem and has any ideas how i can get this running please tell me thankyou.

Flash player will not work on my computer, would love advice

I have windows vista. When I visit a web page that requires flash, it instructs me to download it (even though I'm sure I have it ialready...). I do so, it says it has downloaded successfully but I still cannot view the website. I have uninstalled my current version of flash and reinstalled the latest version numerous times. It even shows up in my list of programs. But each time I visit a site that uses it, it tells me I need flash to view it. Very frustrating. And suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

This was very helpful - thank you. I unchecked "active x filtering" and it seems to be working, under tools in IE. a simple solution, that may have taken me days to figure out myself! Hopefully it continues to work from thiis point forward. Thanks!

Home sharing does not work with new mountain lion update.

home sharing does not work with new mountain lion update. Does anyone else have the same issue. Updated all computers in my home, deauthorized and reauthorized each computer. turn off home sharing and turned it back on. don't know what else to do..please help...

Our Apple TVs continue to lose connection ever since installing Mountain Lion on the host computer. The only thing that fixes them is to quit and relaunch iTunes, which only works unti the ATV goes to sleep. If a movie is paused for more than a few minutes and the ATV goes to sleep, pressing play again on the remote is greeted with "There are no movies on this computer" or "Turn on Home Sharing."
If we stop a video on one ATV and attempt to resume it in another room, the error begins again. The other ATV can't connect until iTunes is relaunched.
My guess is that it has something to do with the new [annoying] security settings. But I still haven't found a fix other than restarting iTunes everytime we want to watch something from our downloads. Fail.

Zen Micro Photo not working with new XP SP2 install

Okay so my Zen Micro Photo stopped being recognised on my computer about ten months ago when I upgraded to WMP (for BBC iPlayer - it's compulsory to have it). Anyway I li'ved with this and have now got thoroughly sick of the same songs and nothing new so I have done a fresh install (on a brand new hard dri've) of Windows XP SP2 WMP9 with the sole intention of using this install/hard dri've?for the player. I used the original installation disk and it prompted me to upgrade to WMP0 as I installed everything. There were no errors during the install and I rebooted when prompted to.
When I attach the player it is recognised by the machine (task bar icon and correctly labelled in System > Hardware > Device Manager which reports it to be?working okay) but the Creative media software says "player not attached" when it is. It is not visible on My Computer as a dri've so I STILL have no access to the player. Player screen reports "docked" with a logo and is flashes a charging icon. Driver v5.2.0.0. The player plays fine but hasn't had new music on in almost a year
There is nothing else on the XP install (IE6 and everything - argh!) I did the registry permission tweak thing mentioned?here:?http://support.creative.com/kb/showa....aspx?sid=9287?but it didn't do anything.
Any help greatfully received!
