Help! My computer is being annoying!

So today, Easter, I got Sims 3 games and stuff. Well when I tried to put in the disk it didn't catch. I had this problem before but now what I used last time, pressuried air, isn't working. I tried to reset my PRAM and stuff but it still doesn't work. Can anyone help me?

You have a problematic optical drive that needs either cleaning or replacement. Bring it to an Apple store.

  • One of the BizTalk Server processes in the affected computer is being throttled for significant periods because of high database size exceeding the threshold

    Hello Experts,
    I have complex Biz Talk 2013 farm having 20 servers,15 Hosts. In my production environment even if there is no traffic i am getting throttling errors from SCOM for my all the production hosts.
    Error : One of the BizTalk Server processes in the affected computer is being throttled for significant
    periods because of high database size exceeding the threshold
     I checked following things:
    1. MsgBoxDB size 748732 KB
    2. Spool table size  53 MB
    3. Tracking DB size 26724 KB
    4. Host settings --  Message Queue Size = 100, MsgCount = 50000 , Spool MP = 10 , Tracking MP = 10
    5. Ran Message Box viewer  and did not found any error related to DB size. (which counter i should focus on in MBV)
    Note -- for DB i am sharing full backup size because it does not have log file size.
    Please suggest where i should focus?
    Is SCOM reporting correctly because everything is fine in biztalk ?
    Thanks

    Hi Yagyam
    I remember this error from SCOM when you use the standard SCOM BizTalk pack.
    Check the eventlog of the server, do you see any errors in event log, this could give some clue to the root cause. Whenever you have this alert from SCOM, you must have
    some entries in eventlog relating to the alert raised by SCOM.
    Is your message processing by BizTalk hosts are normal? Run the performance monitor to see the bottleneck. Check if there is really throttling.
    As mentioned in this blog, check the state of the SQL Agent on BizTalk's SQL database server, may be try restart the SQL Agent on BizTalk's SQL database server.

  • Help! Computer won't detect mic unless webcam is plugged in...

    Has this happened to anyone else? I have 2 different headsets and my computer won't detect the microphone on either on unless the webcam is plugged in. It doesn't seem to have any problem with the speakers, but I can't use the mic until I plug in the webcam. Please help! This is really annoying!!
    Oh, and I'm using Windows Vista, and the Live! Cam Notebook Pro (VF0400) with the headset that came with it and another headset (not a Creative headset).

    hm... yes! you have same problem as me. I can't change to another mic till webcam is plugged. And this is due to the fact that the webcam has a built-in microphone inside.Moreover in my case, it must be another problem too, because the other person with who I talk hear sometimes a strong noise. I need to change microphone in the Skype options (I go to the Microsoft Microphone, even if it can hear nothing) and I go back on the mic of the cam. The noise disappear for some moments... after again and I do the same.Could someone help us?For me it would be nice to deactivate the mic of the cam and use an headset that doesn't give this noise problem.

  • My computer is being controlled remotely

    I bought a Mac Mini, a few months ago. I had this problem initally with my MacBook Pro. My computer behaves completely out of the ordinary, the mouse cursor is not showing what I'd expect. The cursor moves across the screen, I have difficulty clicking on links and scrolling becomes like a bargain, sometimes it does what I want. I haven't installed any other programs, besides the ones on the App Store and I have run a virus scan, with no results.
    I believe my computer is being monitored by someone, interrupting me in my work. I think it's some spysystem or regular hack. I'm considering giving up on Apple, if this is the way their Mac's behave. Kinda annoying, I feel like they do this to some folk, not all maybe.  

    I second the advice gien so far, & it isn't very likely that it's an infection.

    I have given a laptop to my grandson without deauthorizing itunes. How can I deauthorize itunes on that computer without being in possision of it?

    You cannot, nor do you need to until you reach the limit of 5.  Then you can deauthorize all and authorize only the machines you choose.

  • How can you tell if your computer is being hacked

    We got a call this morning from someone at Microsoft stating that our computer is being hacked.  I don't trust this notification.

    I'm really glad you didn't fall for it.  If you had let them into your computer, they would have stolen all your information.  It makes me SO mad.

    There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.
    Follow this article to connect in recovery mode:

  • Problem in Search Help[F4] - Values Not being Dsplayed

    Hi,
    Search help values are not being displayed.
    F4 help pop up is being displayed with the text on top: ' xxxx number of entries found".
    But no values are visible in that popup where it normaly displayes all values for selection. This is happening with all search helps.
    Example: I tried for Tcode: ME21, for field Vendor.
    =><i>No patch has been applied on Server recently.</i>
    Any clue on that..??
    Any help is appriciated.
    Regards,
    Vijay Raheja

    Hello Vijay,
    This is simple as well.
    Go to help then settings and then F4 help. Under system defaults tab strip you will find Display tab strip. Here go to change mode and choose dialog. The other choice will be for control only ( 2 radio buttons only this time around). However to do so make sure you have the authorization object S_ADMI_FCD with value TCTR.
    Ask yoru authorization adminstrator to make these changes. He would be having these authorizations. Normally all  users dont have this authorization as this is part of security audit considerations.
    Please award points if issue got solved.
    Regards.
    Ruchit.

    Hello Terryfrank,
    Congratulations on your new laptop!  Also, thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with transferring your iTunes Library to your new computer. 
    I notice that you are coming from the article “iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer,” and it sounds like you might have used the Home Sharing method outlined in that article. 
    With Home Sharing, you can stream content from another computer, and it sounds like that is how you have it currently set up.  The last step is to import the content to your new computer.  Use these steps on the new computer (while the old computer is on) to import the music to your new computer’s hard drive:
    Once your new computer sees the Home Share from your old computer, click that Home Share on the left side of iTunes on your new computer.
    Select the content in the Home Share that you want to transfer to your iTunes library on your new computer, or choose Edit > Select All to choose all of it. Then, click the Import button in the bottom-right corner of iTunes.
    Wait for the content to finish transferring.
    Additionally, if you want to transfer your playlists, you can export them from the old computer to the new computer:
    Transferring playlists
    If you want not only your content but also your playlists to exist on your new computer, you will want to transfer a copy of all your playlists from your old computer. To do this, choose File > Library > Export Library on your old computer. Save the XML file that is created to your desktop.
    Send the playlists file to yourself as an e-mail attachment, use an external drive, or use file sharing to move the playlists file to your new computer. Once the file is on your new computer, open iTunes and choose File > Library > Import Playlist. The import process will remove any items from the playlists that you didn't share via Home Sharing.
