Laptop presario cq61 compaq fails to initialise when i try to open power2go with win 7
ive never used the power2go burner that came with my laptop ,i bought it just over a year ago from curries and in the end i took it back with in the waranty and they said they fixed it but they never 4 times in a row i would get it home and it never worked each time,now i have a different dvd burner because the last time i told them to replace it coz it dont work at all now its doing the same thing,it fails to initialise,doed any one know what i can do to sort this out as its a pain in the ass
Yes - (see above) - ' I have tried many fixes for this including setting keepconn, autodisconnect,
and adding LmCompatibilityLevel in the registry. None of these appear to change anything
(the behaviour, I mean) and I keep regularly and intermittently lose the mapped drive connections. '
This article explains perfectly what is happening to me, although I don't seem to have a "server
side" or a "computer" to run some of the server side fixes (nb I have still tried them all on the client side anyway)
This is because the networked drives are attached to my router and not another computer. All the
server side fixes seem to need a computer to run them or they tell you to - do this or that on the server side. THow can I apply server side fixes to my router?? Anyway my router seems to be set up and functioning correctly as everything works aok except for
the fact both the mapped connections keep dropping out. (even when I am using them ie transferring files.
Again I reiterate there seems to be an ARMY of frustrated Win 7 users out there experiencing similar
issues. This is really annoying as I bought the router (and drives) specifically for the 2 usb ports that would allow me to move all my media to two external networked drives and make my libraries available anytime for all my devices.
What a complete waste of time and money when windows prevents me from using my router with attached
storage as intended.
I can tell you all now I don't think anyone on the planet can solve this issue for me and thousands of other disgruntled users. The proof of this is the endless forums dating way way back and still there is no fix from microsoft.
Why does this connection keep dropping out???? How come it is happening when I am actively using the connection???? I am at my wits end.

If the above doesn’t do the trick entirely, then use the instructions in the following as it applies to the version of Windows you are using:

I was sent a .pages doc. When I try to open it with pages I'm told "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." I have the newest version of pages on my computer. What should I do?
I wonder if you are running an OS earlier than 10.9.x? If so, you cannot run the *latest* version of Pages, which is 5.1. Apple is trying to get you to update your OS to 10.9 Mavericks and then get you to update (but defintiely not upgrade) your Pages version to 5.1. 5.1 is, in everything but name, beta software. It not only has many bugs, it also lacks more than 90 features that are present in version 4.3 ("Pages 09"). One workaround that is to open the file with Pages for icloud (this is explcitly beta) and click tools|download a copy in Word format. Pages 4.3, which is probably the version you have, can open Word documents. Get a cup of coffee or a glass of wine before starting Pages for icloud: it is s-l-o-w.

Mail hangs when I try to open emails with certain attachments
When I try to open emails with certain attachments, rather PS files (if I recall correctly) it hangs. It seems that Mail is trying to load the PS file for me, and maybe convert it to PDF, which take awful lot of time.
So at the moment I cannot do anything! Because even if I force quit, and start the Mail program again, it tries to open this same email again!
My question is: How can I prevent Mail from automatically loading attachments? I would the same for images etc. I want the power to load and view attachments whenever I want them to load.Do you keep the message preview pane open?
If so, close the message preview pane below the message list by double-clicking on the horizontal divider bar that separates the message list from the preview pane.
This will require double-clicking on a message in the message list to open it. If you have the Attachments and Message Size columns selected for the message list, you can select when you want to open a message that contains a large attachment or attachments.
If this is for a POP type account, there is no setting in Mail to prevent a message attachment from being loaded when opening the message if the message with attachment has been downloaded from the server.
Have a look at Mail Attachments Iconizer.

I recently downloaded a series of instructional videos. They are in mp4 format and rather large (~500MB on average). When I try and open them with Quicktime (default) they will not play. Are there file size restrictions? I have gone through all of the most recent software updates. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.
Try VLC Media Player. It has a reputation for playing just about anything you throw at it.

After downloading the facebook app to my iphone4s, when I try to use it, it just continually "loads". How do I stop the loading to try again?
Having the same issue on my phone too. Have restarted. Shut off Wi-Fi to force 3G data and vice versa. It just continually loads. Anyone else have any thoughts on how to fix this?

I attempted to update iTunes yesterday. The update failed. iTunes now won't open and displays an error message that the program isn't localized and needs to be run in the English version. I'm in the US and the computer and program has never been used in another language. I tried reinstalling the full download for the new version and that failed as well. I logged out; shut down; restarted; retried the update; etc. Still no luck and the same message. Thoughts?

I have a new PC laptop with Windows 7 and Office 2010. I have an Airport Extreme, and installed Bonjour on my laptop. Bonjour "sees" my printer. When I try to print, the printer lights up -- but doesn't print. anyone have an idea? Thanks Gregg
Hi Kelly,
As someone who has to print from my Mac to a networked printer at home all the time, I can certainly understand how frustrating it must be to have that fail to perform as expected. Let's see if we can get you up and running.
I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
OS X Yosemite: Printing troubleshooting
Start with the section titled Check the network.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I am using a work laptop and have the same problem. When I try to change the "configure proxy", they only available option is "use this proxy server for all protocols". Could it be that my system administrator blocked me from changing it since they don't want us to use Firefox.
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; GTB6.4; FNGP_SYS)Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit") -

After updating my Iphone 4s to os 7.1.1 from 7.1 over the air, my phone went into recovery mode. Yet when I try to restore it with Itunes on my windows 7 laptop it says the network connection has been reset. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network is active, or try again later. My phone has the itunes logo and charger symbol on it, as well as an arrow pointing at the Itunes logo. After holding the sleep button down or even doing the hard reset the same screen comes up on my phone regardless of whether it is plugged in or not to my computer. I have turned my computer off and on again. It is plugged in and charging as it's battery life is very short. I also reset my modem and the same error message pops up. The only option on my computer when my phone is plugged in is to restore it. My firewall also allows Itunes through it. I have literally tried everything I know being someone who knows very little about technology. I also do not want to hear about how the update worked for other people. My phone has been in recovery mode for 5 hours at least now so it will just make me more frustrated if a bunch of people post about how the update worked for them.
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...
