Remote disc sharing with windows 7 pc not working

I bought Photoshop Elements to put on my MacBook Air. Since I could get a better price from Amazon than Adobe, I ordered the cd version and recieved it in the mail. I was planning to either use a product key to download it or use remote disc sharing. Unfortunately, Adobe doesn't let you download the software with a product key without paying $80 for it. So that leaves me with using remote disc sharing, but that doesn't seem to be working, either. When I open Finder, I can connect to my Windows 7 PC no problem. But when I click on Remote Disc, nothing is there. It is just blank white; no computers or files are available. I tried using other cd's to see if it was a problem with Photoshop, but nothing works. I also reinstalled the Remote Disc software on my PC several times and have clearly activated it. I really don't want to pay $50 to call Apple, only to have them tell me that I need to pay to download Photoshop online. Also, since I already opened the Photoshop box, I won't be able to get hardly anything for it on eBay. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

DaRT with Windows 8.1 not working on some machines

Problem: x64 bit DaRT8/801/8.1 not recognizing the OS and utlities are greyed out/unavailable on some machines.
System: Windows 8.1 x64
Steps taken:
Tried different DaRT toolset versions, set BIOS SATA operation to different modes, tried both UEFI and Legacy mode secure boot mode off/on, created the DaRT image with Windows 8 installation media and Windows 8.1, tested the DaRT boot iso on Virtual Machines
and it worked, all the utilities available.
Eventually gave up and booted into MiniXP from Hirens boot CD and reset the local account password with NTpass tool.
Why would DaRT work on some machines and not on others?

How was the SATA configured originally? If it was configured for RAID/AHCI and the DaRT disk does not have the RAID/AHCI driver the operating system may not be detectable, even if the mode is changed in the firmware.

Zen touch, crashing with Windows XP professional, not working with Windows media pla

i will start with an apology if someone has posted this up before i have just had a quick look and could not see any think about this.
if i turn my computer on with out running any other programs and connect the zen touch the computer automatically turn on the zen touch media player program. this work's fine as long as no other programs are running.
i have tried to work the zen touch with Windows media player but this dose not work and the computer crashes every time.
i have window xp professional and have all up dates from Windows. my computer is very new and has more then enough memory and ram.
please can you help. i am not to happy with the zen touch computer program and would like to know how to fix this problem.
thank you for your help
Rob the monkey

I wonder if there are problems here associated with the use of the zen touch on SP2 machines. Interestingly I cannot transfer music from my PC to my Zen 20gb on a SP2 machine but I can do so on my sisters machine which has got SP. Obviously having the lastest firmware is a good idea though but I believe there are issues associated with SP2 and as you say you have all the latest updates to windows perhaps the problem lies there. Sorry if this doesn't help you at all

Autodesk Revit on Yoga 3 Pro with Windows 8.1 not working

I have just started working with my new Yoga 3 PRO with Windows 8.1, and have found that it has compatibility problems with Autodesk Revit (2014 & 2015). This is perhaps a graphic driver issue.
Does anyone know of any solutions/updates that will resolve this? Or a way to communcate this back to Lenovo?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have been running Revit 2014 very successfully for months now - There is
probably a limit to the size of projects that will run efficiently on 8GB
of RAM, but most small/medium size project will be fine.
I love it!

Home sharing with IMac and applet not working

Sharing is turned on my IMac. My Apple TV is on and can see the name of the IMac. The iMac has photos selected but they don,t display on the Tv. I have verified the IMac has most recent version of ITunes. Been through TS guide, no luck. Apple TV says to turn home sharing on but it is already on. Any suggestions.

I have 2 Apple TV 2s. I updated one to the latest iOS and it immediately lost the connection to my home shared iMac. A week later I updated the second ATV2 and it immediately lost the connection, BUT I regained the connection with the first ATV2 I had updated earlier. The second still won't connect even after exhausting EVERY solution numerous times and the setting on both ATV2s are identical. Hoping the next iOS ATV update solves the problem.

Remote distributed scheme with custom serializer does not work

I have a remote scheme invoked through TcpExtend which is distributed-scheme. Now if I have a custom serializer attached the first node in the cluster comes up without a problem but not the second one onwards. It gives the following exception...

Home Sharing with Apple TV does not work

Home sharing is turned on for both iTunes and Apple TV. Yet no files are synced to Apple TV from iTunes. I have tried turning Home Sharing off and on both devices several times. I have also re-installed iTunes.

If on wifi try ethernet
Go to netstumbler or similar and get a network report, look for signal strength and noise
Make sure port 123 is open on router (refer to manual if unsure)

Is iCloud tab not shared with Windows PCs with Mac or iOS operated devices?
I have iPad mini with iOS 8 and a PC with Windows 7 .

I think you have to use internet explorer to login to icloud.com on your windows pc to see the content.

Printer sharing with Windows 7 64 bit

I am trying to install an HP laserjet 1320 printer connected to a Windows XP Pro 32 bit machine. Windows 7 goes out and tries to find the approriate drivers but reports that a suiable driver could not be found. The printer installs fine when connected to the Windows 7 machine via USB port. Downloaded and unzipeed the Universal print driver HP's site says is the correct driver - no luck. Tried installing using the share name - same error message.

I found that I had issues with getting all of these to work - individually. I have an XPPro (32) pc trying to print to Win7Ultimate printer - printer is shared with all settings wide open, works great with another 7 or Vista machine, but same errors
as above for XP. I got it to work an old way, and then the "local port" way worked. I don't really know why as yet, but I am investigating.
My Solution -
1. As stated in other posts, install the printer locally on the XP machine. Make sure that it prints.
2. Connect the printer to the 7 machine, print a test, then change the file and print sharing options to "yes". I also installed the "Universal Driver" for my printer - HP1200 Laserjet.
3. Make sure that the Network type that the 7 machine sees is "Work" or "Home", not "Public". - I don't know if this really did anything or not, but I did make the change - mine thought the network was "Public".
4. Go back to the XP machine, if you get errors when you add the "Local Port" as suggested, then do this -
Warning Old Dos Trick -
- Open a Command Prompt, then type (without quotes) "net use Lpt1 \\COMPUTERNAME\PRINTERSHARE " - where "computername" is the name of the computer and sharename is the shared name of the printer
on that computer.
- you SHOULD see "command completed successfully", if not check to make sure that you have rights on the 7 machine. Now you should be able to print a test page to the printer. CAUTION - it took awhile for the changes to
take, so you may have the hourglass looking at you for a few minutes. - Once you reboot this will not work as the connection is just for that session.
To explain: this command is the dos version of what happens when you re-route output to a different destination - thus any traffic to LPT1 goes to \\computername\sharename.
5. After this worked, I then could add the "local port", as detailed earlier and had no errors.
Hope this helps someone else!

Wireless printer sharing with windows 7 and vista operating systems.

hello can anyone help me?
i have a new HP pc with windows 7 OS, and have an epson PX710W 3in1 printer.
i want to connect a laptop with vista OS to share the printer (wireless set up).
the pc will print documents ok via wireless link, but when i power up the laptop it appears to inhibit the printing function (document will not print).
i have set up file/ print sharing but there is the problem. it appears to me that sharing is only possible between pc,s etc with windows 7 OS via the homegroup set up. Has anyone encountered this problem at all, has anyone any ideas? or is it a configuration problem that i'm not aware of?

I found that I had issues with getting all of these to work - individually. I have an XPPro (32) pc trying to print to Win7Ultimate printer - printer is shared with all settings wide open, works great with another 7 or Vista machine, but same errors

File Sharing With Windows

Right this is annoying the **** out of me. I've enabled everything I should on my Mac to get it sharing with windows. I'm convinced I've broke my OSX, but there's clearly something I've missed which is stopping this from working that maybes someone else can see! So here we go
Gone to system preferences, sharing
-> Ticked file sharing
-> Ticked share files over SMB
-> Ticked my user
-> Added what I want to share and gave permission to everyone as read/write for public folder.
-> Gone to network preferences and setup the WINS server to the same group as my windows PC
Just got the standard apple firewall running on my mac. I've tried disabling this and letting anything through.
The problem im having is my windows laptop cant see my mac quite often. Sometimes it can, and when it can see my mac it only displays shared printers rather than any of my shared folders. The problem here is that I dont have any printers on my mac, and printer sharing is not enabled.
Any idea why this isnt working? I've disabled windows firewall/any other firewall on my windows laptop. My windows laptop can happily access the FTP and HTTP on my Mac. Just has issues file sharing.
I actually had this working a while ago for a day, then it's never worked since. I cant for the **** of it figure out why. I've gone through loads of tutorials to see if i've missed things. Some things have even told me to change a registry file in windows, which I've done to no success.
Cheers in advance!

Per window private browsing not working, still sharing cookies

Firefox 21, per window private browsing not working. The cookies are still shared among private browsing windows and tabs. Even with private tab addon, still not working.
If I log into google in one tab, I am still logged in with that account in new private tabs and private windows.

One more question about cookies in private browsing mode.
I don't like browse a web using usual mode 'cause I don't like tonns of sites in a history. But when I start with private mode every time I get empty set of cookies and this was not quite good for me 'cause some sites store its options needed for me. In a prev. versions of FF I solved this issue in such a way: I stored some cookies in a file and every time I started private browsing I loaded them from file. But now this method gives nothing: in cookies manager all set of "non private" cookies is shown both before importing and after importing them from a file and I need to reconfigure my sites every time I start private browsing.
I'm sorry for my English.
