Homegroup madness Win 8.1 and Toshiba cloud TV

I purchased both a Dell "all in one" running Win 8 and a Toshiba Cloud TV that includes "mediashare". For some time, it worked great. But around the time I upgraded to Win 8.1, mediashare stopped working. I've gone through all my settings
(that I know of) and found no issues. Used "find and fix" options with no relief. File sharing and network discovery are turned on. The TV shows up under "Network" but there is nothing under "Homegroup" and the TV can not access
any files from the Dell HD. Losing my mind...

Hi,
Seems the TV is not in your homegroup?
Please make sure that you've added TV to your homegroup, move mouse to the right charm bar\Settings\Change PC settings\Networking\Homegroup, Tap or click the control under
Media devices if you want to allow devices on the network, such as your Toshiba Cloud TV.

  • Need some help about Win 8.1 and linux with a dual boot

    Hi!
    I have a Lenovo z50-70 notebook and I have a Windows 8.1 on it. (The one which was shipped with this notebook...)
    My concerns are Intalling Linux as a dual boot and loosing Windows 8.1.
    As I am not familiar to Win 8.1, the product key is in the ?BIOS? and there's a lot of partitions...
    If I install Linux Ubuntu (latest version) as a dual boot by manually making the partitions, etc. and then if I lose my Windows 8.1 system, how can I get it back?
    I've made a backup of the system to the portable hdd but I don't know can I restore it, as I have no win installation disc and I am not sure if i can restore win 8.1 from the backup by using random win 8 installation disc that I've made from the downloaded ISO (for e.g. Win 8.1 pro iso from internet)...
    I need a Linux distro for developing my Android ROM but I don't want to lose that Win 8.1 OS from my notebook. So.. What should I do?

    Did you do a full disc backup of the C: Drive using a backup tool other than windows? If you did, then the recover of that partition will be up to your backup software.
    If worse comes to worse, you can use the novo button to restore your computer to what it was like when it came from the factory. But there really is nothing to worry about. Create your new partition and just make sure that you install Linux to that partition. Make sure it is not the same size as any other partition, that way even if the Linux installer does not show the volume labels, you can tell which partition you want to install Linux in just by the size.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Installing FLash player (and Creative cloud)

    I am having trouble with Flash player and creative cloud. Most recently I have tried umpteen times to install Flash player and it wont work. I have run through uninstalling it. re installing it. ensuring it is enabled. and nothing. i have established that i DO have the current version on my computer through the \app\ through your website...its the 11.9 version. but when I try to use FB to upload photos, it says i have to install the latest version of flash.
    I have also had the same issue with CC. I have a subscription and i have downloaded the desk top app, but I cannot see or access it. I have it listed in my control panel, under programs...but cannot see it anywhere else.
    What else can I do? I am so frustrrated. mostly with these adobe products - they just dont seem to 'stay' on my comp. LR and PS both work - downnloaded from CC...but nothing else really!?
    Thanks so much

    This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11 (which I can only assume you're using because this is where the FB problems occur), which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
    Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

  • Airport Extreme denying connections to Win XP laptop and Blackberry devices

    I have a Macbook with OS 10.6.4 and have used Airport Utility 5.5.1 to set up my Airport Extreme n. I can use my Macbook and a Ipod Touch to connect to the WiFi network setup using the Airport Extreme. However other devices like a Win Laptop, Blackberry and Wireless Bridge are not able to connect. I get a 'Connection Denied' or "IP address not assigned' message. The devices can see the network but connections are not made. Any suggestions?
    smitra

    Thanks for your reply. Unbelievably frustrating: I just booted up the laptop having shut it down Friday, and it connected and negotiated an IP address very quickly after I entered in the password.
    I had already tried rebooting it before I posted this question last week, so I'm miffed that I have no answer as to why that was happening Thursday after a reboot but not today.
    (BTW, the issue with the shorter password is for usability with guests. In today's world, many people come to my home carrying an iPhone or iPod Touch, and it is hospitable for me to get them on the network. It isn't about re-keying it in on my iPhone, it is about keying it in on other people's iPhones.)
    (Also, for the neighborhood I live in, the mixture of letters, numbers and symbols in my 8 digit password is probably just fine.)

  • Qosmio X70-A - difference between nVidia and Toshiba GPU driver

    Is there any difference between the nvidia display driver and the one packed by toshiba?
    I've been using the one from toshiba but Geforce Experience is giving me a headache with warnings about a newer driver and toshiba doesn't seem to supply one.

    Yes of course there is a difference between the nVidia GPU drivers (or any drivers provided by graphic card manufacturers) and drivers provided by Toshiba.
    The GPU drivers from Toshiba driver page are modified and made for mobile usage.
    Every notebook model supports different components (CPU, cooling modules, etc) and different design. Therefore the heat dissipation is always different.
    The GPU driver provided by Toshiba supports some kind of GPU overheating protection and protects the graphic chip from damage. This means that GPU performance is controlled by the driver and in case the internal temperature would increase to critical level, the GPU performance would be decreased. Also the notebook shuts down automatically if temperature would be too high.

  • My I-phone as been stolen and I cloud doesn't let me see it, of doesn't let me find it

    My I-phone as been stolen and I cloud doesn't let me find it. I s there a very good internet guro a fantastic hacker that can help me locate it? Someone that knows better then me how to do it?
    Thank you
    Mari

    I don't think version 8 can be updated for free. You would need to purchase iPhoto from the App Store.
    If you don't need Yosemite, revert to your previous OS.
    The rumor sites seem to think the new Photos, which replaces iPhoto, will be part of the OS. So, you can wait until that is released and upgrade then.
    Here are instructions for restoring a previous OS. Apple: Restoring a previous OS X version
    You do have a backup made prior to installing Yosemite?

  • Compatability between cloud and non-cloud versions

    I'm pretty sure there will be no compatability problems between the same versions of cloud and non-cloud products. But what about the feature updates that are mentioned as a benefit of the cloud products. How do they effect the file format. Does it depend on whether or not I use a certain feature? Will these updates only provide features that don't change the file format? For example: If I have version 6.0 of non-cloud InDesign on one computer and 6.? of cloud InDesign with some new feature that hasn't made it into the non-cloud release yet, can I save a file with the cloud version and open it with the non-cloud version?

    Hi ,
    We really apologize for all the inconvenience which has caused you.
    Yes you can open the files from recent version into 1 or in some cases 2 versions back by following the different workflows for each program
    For example in In Design you can save the file as IDML and open in the previous version. 
    In the meanwhile if these steps doesnt resolve your issues you can contact Adobe support by following the link below:

  • Satellite P10: white and purple clouds fading across the screen when booting

    I had been having problems with my SP-10 laptop so I bought a new hard drive (Fujitsu 60GB instead of standard 40GB) and fitted it myself. I was working fine with this for a long time until suddenly I had the strangest problem I have ever seen on a computer...
    Sometimes, when booting the laptop, instead of the normal red "TOSHIBA" screen and the Windows XP startup message, the laptop simply shows some weird white and purple clouds fading across the screen, eventually fading to a very dark but not quite black screen.
    I thought to begin with it was a problem with the DVD drive, as when it finally gave in and booted normally, the DVD drive was disabled. However, I have noticed in the BIOS, under "Advanced" that the InfraRed Port shows intermittently - it shows with the [Disabled] setting next to it, but will then disappear from the listing, then reappear again, and then go again and so on.
    Sometimes my computer will be operating normally, then completely lock up (mouse and all) and will reboot with the clouds!
    I have looked in the Windows Event Viewer for when the notebook has locked up and have seen something to do with an IRQ problem for the Infrared Port. I disabled the InfraRed port in Device Manager (I managed to enable it in the BIOS by loading standard BIOS settings) and restarted, but it started up with the clouds again, so I have a feeling the InfraRed port is the culprit - perhaps faulty hardware/loose connection as it is located quite close to the DVD drive and HD drive.
    I was just wondering if anyone has ever seen anything like this before on ANY computer, and if they knew how to resolve it? It seems completely illogical that a faulty IR port could alter what is displayed on the screen at bootup, unless of course there is something wrong with the boot sector of my HD?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.
    Tom

    Well I can assure you my laptop has an InfraRed Port on it - I used to use it with my mobile phone for various things but don't bother now.
    Good idea about attaching another monitor - hadn't thought of that. I will see what I can come up with.
    I simply don't understand how anything except the display driver could be causing this, unless of course, another piece of hardware is conflicting with the display driver. But then why would it be intermittent and not constant? Anyway, I don't seem to have had the problem since I disabled the IR port (except the first time I disabled it) so here's hoping it's fixed.
    Will definitely try attaching another display though. Good thinking.
    Thanks,
    Tom

  • Hello, we have both Creative Cloud and Creative Cloud for teams. Can you help me with the difference and if i need to have both?

    Hello, we have both Creative Cloud membership and Creative Cloud for team. Can you help me with the difference and if i need to have both? We have 9 employees that are using it. Just not sure if i'm paying for something i don't need.
    Thank you

    Please refer to Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud / Common Questions
    CC is for retail use with 20 GB of storage space, CCT is where number of seats are purchased & assigned by one program admin where each seat gets 100GB of storage space.
    You can not have both the CC & team in one account as it will only provide you added storage space of 120 GB but you can activate the CC any of them or either of them twice as CC is based on Adobe ID.

    My husband and I both have iphones and both are linked to the app store and i cloud. Now my husband is receiving all of my text messages and has all my contacts. How can we get it to where he does not receive my messages anymore? Any help is appreciated!

    Best way is to get your own Apple ID, but until then have him go to Settings > Message > Receive at and remove your phone number.
