Is my Satellite with Win 7 capable of screen sharing?

Is my new computer capable of screen sharing.
IF so how can I accomplish this?
I have a friend who wants to take over my screen to set up some areas for me -
Thanks (I do this easily thru AIM-I CHAT on my MAC)

Hi
I think you mean the Remote Desctop.
The Remote desktop feature is only included in the Professional, Business, or Ultimate Win 7 versions.
Win 7 Home edition doesnt include remote desktop!
If you are using one of the mentioned Win 7 versions then you could enable the Remote Desktop following this:
- click on Start button
- right-click the Computer icon and choose properties
- click Remote Settings which you can find on the left
- now you can turn it on
Cheers

T60p with Win 7 32: blue screen

I installed Win 7 32 bit on a T60p.
The problem is that randomly I get a blue screen, and I'm not able to read the cause of the crash (too fast).
I downloaded and installed all the Win 7 drivers available on the Lenovo site; I downloades and installed the Windows updates.
The question is: how can I discover where is the problem? Is there a place where I can find the drivers up to date for T60p in Win 7 32 bit?
Thanks in advance

Hi Occam,
If you want to stop it from flashing away and find the complete error code then do this. Click on Start, then right click on My Computer -> Properties -> Advanced, under Start up and Recovery click the Settings. Thereafter, under system failure uncheck 'Automatic System Restart'.
You can also install BlueScreenView to do this:- http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html
Hope it helps.

IChat crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS) when attempting screen sharing

I seem to have an unstable iChat on my 27 inch i7 iMac since early January when it replaced a 24 inch model where iChat worked well.
I've been reading various helpful posts and tried things like trashing the plists, set my speed limit to 500kbps, running in 32 bit mode.
I use screen sharing to support my elderly mother and some of her equally elderly friends who I have converted to mac but it's getting terribly frustrating since I cannot reliably connect for screen sharing and end up having to drive for 2 hours to sort out basic stuff. The most recent crash is EXCBADACCESS (SIGBUS). I'll post a short extract below. But I've also had other errors (SIGSEGV).
I've now discovered that I get the same failure about half the time when testing in-house both connecting over the internet and via Bonjour to a new 15 inch core duo MBP both machines running 10.6.2. Any ideas please? Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Hi,
It does seem that is a specific build.
10C refers to 10.6.2 as a range of builds
The numbers after that are normally 3 digits long and yours is 4
Those people that sign up for the Developers copies tend to get minor/text update as testers along the way which is why a General Release version tends to be a specific number. (In this case 10C540)
There are other things we could try that may help.
Try Launching Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities and Setting the tab to First Aid then use the "Repair Permissions" button.
Also try a PRAM reset.
Shut down the computer.
Restart it holding down APPLE(or ⌘)ALT(⌥)+PR Keys until you have heard three Start Up Bongs.
Do them one at a time and then test iChat.
After this we will move to deleting ichat .plists and forcing it to rewrite them from defaults.

Screen Sharing - Unable to use with some users - Version 4.0.8 (619)

Hello,
I got my mom, who is disabled, a year ago an iMac especially because we're not living on the same city and I wanted to be able to help here when problems occurs.
iChat was a great solution but I could never work it out. With some of my friends Screen sharing is working fine, with some not and I could never find a reason why.
I contact apple long time ago, no one answered.
I've don all Port forwarding on our both computer following the instructions here:
http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Edimax/BR-6104K/iChat.htm
I thought if I can connect to others, than that means all my setting are correct.
Still, even though my mom got the same setting and can chat+video with her, I'm unable to do the screen sharing.
I find it very very frustrating.
thank you very much
shlomit

Hi,
The Port Forwarding shown on the Port Forwarding site does include all the ports iChat 3 uses as listed here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1507
These include port 5060 that iChat 4 does not use and an extended range of A/V ports (20 as opposed to 10 by iChat 4).
However the iChat 4 range of A/V Ports is inside the ichat 3 range so they will work.
What this second Article does not tell you is the iChat Sharing port.
Testing has shown us that this port (which runs along side an Audio Chat) is random.
It seems that for most people this means using UPnP.
I see from the pica at the link you posted your Device has UPnP
I would use that (Disable the Port Forwarding).
Depending on the speed of your Internet Connection you may have to turn Off the DoS setting particularly if your Buddies are on a fast connection and can send you lots of data in Video Chat.
It may also pay to set your Mom's modem/router to do UPnP

Re: Satellite Z30-A with Win 8.1 - Driver update confusion

Hello,
I have a question regarding driver updates. Currently, Windows Update recommends me to update the audio driver (important) and the LAN driver (optional). Toshiba Service Station, however, doesnt offer new drivers for these devices.
My question is whether I should install these updates (particularly the important one) or if they are not approved by Toshiba yet?
Moreover, does anyone have a changelog for the new 3.8 Bios?
Thanks!

Thanks for the quick replies! I was just tempted because one of the updates was classified as "important", for whatever reason, which are normally those updates that should be installed (e.g. for security reasons). In fact you are right, I dont have any problems with my laptop.
Sorry, forgot to state the model: Z30-A with Win 8.1
Any ideas about the bios update?
Thanks!

Satellite M300 with Win 7 64 wont register bluetooth mouse

I have just updated my M300 to Win 7 64 and can't get MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 to register. I have updated the BIOS and drivers. Any suggestions would be gratefully received. It worked perfectly on this computer with Win 7 32.
Thanks in advance.

Akuma is right.
You need the Toshiba Bluetooth stack!
Reinstall the BT stack and enable BT using the FN + F8
Note; the FN+F8 controls the WLan too. You need to press this key combination several times in order to get BT enabled.

Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1?

Flash player does not work with Ie or Firefox with win 8.1 64, If i try and play a video I get the message to install Flashplayer.
If I try and install it it says it is already installed. Your onsite installer says it is not applicable to my machine.
I have followed all the normal steps re enabling addons and active filters etc.
all to no avail Pc is Dell 6 months old, Flashplayer has never worked on this machine. Last MS update mid Dec 2014.
Version of flashplayer is 15....03.......

Flash Player is a built-in component of Internet Explorer. There's nothing separate to download or install.
Firefox requires a different version of Flash Player (the NPAPI plug-in), which will be served to you if you go here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer using Firefox; however, there are some unique stability issues related to Firefox on Win8.1, and you're probably better off using Google Chrome if you want a more optimal experience with Flash Player.
For problems where IE isn't being detected by sites that require Flash:
First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

my graphics card is Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller, and maybe should install a module for it works with wine.
The window where you start all options configuration appears to me, but when I go to Play THPS4! showed me the error. The version of my wine is wine-1.1.8. I don't know if I have to install any shape or form over any other option in winecfg.
thanks

Can you try it on a desktop comp using arch and wine instead? Maybe it's a graphics problem? Anyway, I've checked the min req. and it's quite low..
Please check this site if your game is supported or if ever you want to play another game in the future.

Problem with Wine, NVidia and fullscreen games

Hi,
I'm writing about a problem i recently noticed with wine, nvidia gpu and fullscreen 2d games.Basically the problem is as follows - i am running arch with the latest kernel and nvidia drivers on Thinkpad T61 with NVidia Quadro NVS 140M. I have a problem with old 2d games like Red Alert 2, Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Diablo 2, Heroes 3. All of these games do not support the native 1440x900 resolution of my screen and all of them work fine in window mode but crash if fullscreen is selected. I managed to get some of them working by making them work at higher resolutions. For example although Red Alert 2 does not support 1440x900, it can be easily made to work at that resolution and after i applied the necessary settings it worked. The same was with Heroes 3 - by default it does not support 1440x900 and it used to work only i window mode but there is a HD mod which allows it to run in higher resolutions and after i applied it it worked perfectly in fullscreen. I haven't thested Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale but i think it will work there too.
The problem is that i cannot use this approach to all games - for example i must run Diablo 2 and Starcraft in their original resolutions. I read somewhere that the problem is that wine can only change between the resolutions described in the xorg.conf file and if doesn't find the necessary resolution the game will crash or will only take the portion of the screen that is its resolution - for example when i play Starcraft rather than stretching it to the whole screen it simply takes 640x480 pixels of my screen and the game is displayed in the top left corner of the screen leaving everything else black.
I didn't have this problem before - it is something new though i'm not sure since when do i have the problem because i rarely play games. As for the idea that the problem may be related to the resolutions defined in the Xorg.conf file, my xorg.conf is automatically generated by the nvidia installer and there are no resolutions defined there.

Try nvidia 304.48
I remember that issue, with the 302 series.
I have Nvidia 304.48 installed and the problem still exists (it also happens with Catalyst). This didn't occur with 295.59 using the same version of Wine.

Can't open camera RAW image in CS4/Bridge with Win 8.1. Worked fine with XP

I upgraded from Win XP to 8.1 and got a new computer in the process. I'm using CS4, and I think that works okay, except it does not recognize a RAW file. Bridge won't open thumbnails for RAW files, and if I try to open one it doesn't open it in Bridge; it goes straight to CS4 and that says it's 'not the right kind of document'. It doesn't matter if the file is on the hard drive or on a Canon card in a reader. Bridge will display thumbnails for JPG files and open them in CS4. It will not show the thumbnails for TIF files, but it will open them in CS4. How do I fix this?

I did all that, in the order you recommended. I downloaded, expanded and installed all three updates. I then checked the start page for CS4 and it is at 11.0.2. I also rebooted, but Bridge still won't display thumbnails of RAW files, will not open a RAW file in Bridge but sends it to CS4 which still says it is not the right kind of document. If I try to open a RAW file in CS4 directly, I do get thumbnails, but it won't open the file. On a more positive note, I called a friend who also has CS4 and who also recently bought a new computer. However, his is a laptop with Win 8 Professional. He had not tried to use Photoshop since he got the new laptop, and he discovered that he had the very same problem. However, downloading the updates fixed him right up. My new machine is a desktop with Win 8.1. What do I do now?

I use FF 20.0.1. How can I move my Favories and settings fron a laptop with Win 7 to a new laptop with Win 8. I can't find appdata on the Win 8 PC 8

I want to use Firefox on my Win 8 desktop. i want to move my favorites, settings and add-ons to a new Win8 laptop from my old Win 7 machine. I know how to do it with Win 7 machines by moving my profile. I can't find appdata on the Win 8 PC to move the profile to.
I will also want to do the same with Thunderbird.

The easiest way is to use Sync.
You can find it in Tools / Options.
You'll always have settins, bookmarks, saved passwords, history synced between you computers (and Android devices).

Why does Auto Tone button in Quick Develop panel fail with Win 7 platform?

I have been a user of Photoshop since the inception of Photoshop CS. I recently purchased a subscription to Photoshop CC, which comes with Photoshop Lightroom 5.
I have never used Lightroom, so I purchased the Kindle version of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5, CLASSROOM IN A BOOK. I have this eBook installed on the same Windows 7 PC that I have Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5 installed on.
I ran into a problem in a section of the first chapter titled “Using Quick Develop in the Library module.” This section, in part, instructs how to quickly improve the color tonal balance of an image.
After selecting the required image from the sample images for this lesson, I found the histogram in my Lightroom 5 Loupe view to be the same as the lesson’s photo illustration for this original image. As described in the lesson, the photo did not have a balanced tonal distribution.
I followed the lesson’s instruction: “4. In the Quick Develop panel, watch the tone distribution curve shift in the Histogram panel as you click the Auto Tone button. Although the automatic adjustment hasn’t done a perfect job with this particular photo, there is substantial improvement; a lot of image detail has been recovered from the overexposed hair and face and there is more depth in the mid-tones. The contrast, however, remains unimpressive, and the darker areas still look flat.” (See Adobe Creative Team [2013-08-06]. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5: Classroom in a Book [Kindle Locations 1024-1026]. Pearson Education. Kindle Edition.)
This is where I ran into a problem. After clicking on the Auto Tone Button in the Quick Develop panel, my results were completely different than what was described and shown in the Histogram displayed in the lesson. Instead, in my Lightroom 5, clicking the Lightroom Auto Tone button has increased the exposure, making it even more over exposed than the original image! Therefore continuing to follow the instructions in the lesson was a waste of time, since my Auto Tone results were so totally out of sync from that of the lesson.
This disturbed me, so I decided to open the same sample image in Photoshop CC, Camera RAW 8.2. Camera RAW provides an Auto Button which improves exposure and color tonal balance to an image. The results were exactly the same as the Auto Tone functionality in the Quick Develop panel in Lightroom 5. I couldn't understand why the lesson instructor's results were so positive and mine were so disastrous. Then it hit me! I discovered that the lesson writer of this Adobe Classroom in a Book was using Lightroom 5 on a MAC computer. I could tell by looking at his lesson images. Just to be sure, I tried this lesson scenario on a different PC with Win 7, Photoshop CC and Lightroom 5. I got the same failed results.
I’ve heard from other professionals that Photoshop and Lightroom software only work properly on Apple computers. I’ve always thought that this was a myth, but have infrequently experienced a good result using the Auto button feature in Photoshop Camera Raw on a Windows PC platform, so I don’t use it often.
What really has me frustrated is the fact that Adobe no longer has a direct way to report software defects to their tech support or process improvement teams. Their online bug reporting process is woefully inadequate. I've tried twice to create a support ticket on the Adobe site, only to have my case withdrawn mysteriously. I've tried their online chat, telephone support, and sent emails with image attachments to the address provided by their agent on the telephone. My email goes unanswered and my open cases somehow get closed.
Any ideas on how to get this issue addressed by Adobe are sincerely appreciated.

Adobe tries to improve the Auto Tone function from time-to-time. I used to completely underexpose an image that had a few bright spots such as car headlights turned on in an otherwise properly exposed image. This is probably what you’re seeing, LR now guessing brighter more of the time, and it might change, again, in a future version so don’t be too concerned.
As others have said, Auto Tone works on some images and not on others, and Adobe can only try to make it work better on more images by changing how it works on all images. For the lesson example, the author purposely used an image that was improved with auto-tone that LR did at the time of authorship. You will never have a picture exactly like the lesson’s example, either, so it’s not that important if the lesson is 100% accurate for future versions of LR, just that the general idea that some pictures are improved in certain ways by Auto Tone will still be applicable, and you’ll need to learn, by trial and error, what to do when Auto Tone doesn’t work well or the image needs further adjustment. That is the important lesson, what to do with your own pictures.
You can reset a particular slider after a bad Auto Tone by double clicking on that slider. The Exposure slider is the one I reset most often.
You can also LR set the Auto Tone value for just one slider by holding down the Shift key and double clicking on that one slider. I do this a lot for the Blacks slider to set the black point, without messing up everything else.

A P Elements 3 no longer works with win 7

A P Elements 3 no longer works with win 7, crashes when I click on preferences and no sound works in editor. So I want to upgrade but not seeing any dates with newer editions. Whats the oldest I can go to work with win 7 64 bit? Like maybe APE 10? Or maybe there is an update to fix 3?

dfishead
I have Premiere Elements 4 through 13 on Windows 7 64 bit, and all are working fine.
You really do not want Premiere Elements 10 on a computer that uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card.
And, 13/13.1 does not support Windows XP, Windows Vista, or OSX 10.7.
Do check System Requirement as well as computer resources.
How far are you getting with the Premiere Elements 3 install on Windows 7 64 bit? Depending on the answer to that question, have you been installing the 3.0.2 Update
after the 3 install?
Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Adobe Premiere Elements 3.0.2 update
Have you right clicked the desktop icon for the program, if you got that far, and selected Run As Administrator?
When you are trying to get Premiere Elements 3 on Windows 7 64 bit, are you at least doing that by ignoring the "not compatible" messages and moving onward through
the installation dialogs as long as it will let you?
Please review and then let us know the outcome.
Thank you.

Just bought a dell pc with windows 8. on my old pc (vista) i would right click a movie (in itunes format) and say open with itunes and it would play. Now it won't open in itunes and it just CRASHES. HELP PLEASE. is there a glitch with win 8???

okay not sure how this works so here i go again.
Okay i bought a dell pc with windows 8 (big mistake) i downloaded itunes and from my external hard drive, right clicked a movie file (in ipad format, because this worked in vista on my old laptop) and it will not go into itunes. And itunes keeps crashing. Is there a glitch with win 8 and itunes ? I never had this prob with vista. I would right click a file and say open with itunes and poof it goes in the library. Please help before i throw this thing out the window! OH newest itunes is what i have installed.

Take a look at this MBP, a refurbished unit. Don't let the late 2011 release date put you off. For about $500 less than an equivalent 'new' one with similar specifications you get a quad core CPU and excellent graphics. As Steve359 mentioned, this can be upgraded if the need arises and has the same warranty as a 'new' one
I would not be surprised that these may actually be 'new' MBPs due to the length of time that they have been replaced by the current generation. I purchased a 17" model about 5 weeks ago, and a serial number check suggests that it is 9 weeks old.
