Win8 can not find and connect the wireless network which created in win7

I am a fan of DOTA, sometimes i play it with my roommate. But after i installed win8, my roommate and i can not connect to each other. He used win7 to set up a wireless network, but i could not find the network. And i used win8 to set up a
wireless network.Althrought it prompted create successfully, i could not find it in my laptop. So who can explain it to me? I really think using the networkd on right side instead of the classic network finder is a big mistake.  

Hi,
As you said,the other laptop couldn't see the adhoc network.
I suggest you use the following method to re-create the adhoc network.
Firstly,please use the following command to verify that your network interface supports virtualization.
netsh wlan show drivers
If Hosted network supported says Yes, please enter the following commands to configure an ad hoc wireless connection.
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=<network name> key=<passkey>
Then,you need to start the mode to create an ad hoc connection. Please enter the command below.
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
For the detail information, refer to the following link:

    i can not find "app of the day" from app store on my ipod,how can i find and download it?

    It is possible that the app was removed from the App Store. If so you will not be able to get it back, unless you have it downloaded on your computer.
    If you had downloaded it before and it is still in the store, you can go to the App Store app on your iPod and go to the Updates tab. Then you tap on "Purchased" and see if it is available to download from your previous purchases.
    Hope this helps!

    No but it transfers the music that is purchased from the iPhone back to my computer, when I don't want it on either and I can't uncheck or delete it directly on my phone.

  • Finder can not  find and display certain files. Why? Any fix,please?

    I've discovered to my surprise that Finder can not  find and display certain files. Computer is Mac book OS X (10.6.8)
    No matter what Finder settings I use, there are files which it can not detect and display.
    Here are just some examples of files sitting in the HD but Finder can not display them:
    Located in  preference panes :
    fibre channel 1.7
    Located in :    /Library/StartupItems/BRESINKx86Monitoring
    BRESINKx86Monitoring
    FxLicenseManager
    Located in    /Library/StartupItems/FxLicenseManager
    EAP8021X
    Located in    /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/EAP8021X.framework
    The questions:
    What to make of this inability of Finder to ,well, find? (again - I tried all possible settings of Finder!)
    Is there any way to fix it?
    Thanks for any competent suggestion!

    Well, guys,
    Interesting suggestions but the problem remains -Finder (aka Spotlight) is not capable to find certain files.Period.
    I consider it as a fault of the system because in comparison, a search facility of a plain Windows based machine is capable to dig out and display any file, no matter now deeply hidden...
    As far as the suggestion above by softwater  goes , well, I've used the additional foptions  extensively and nothing produced the result needed -that's why I created this discussion.
    If someone still believes that using Finder with all its options is good enough, here is a test for you to perform on your own Mac:
    -Open  /Library/StartupItems/ and have a look inside - most likely you have a bunch of items. Write down the names of one or two of them. For this test I've chosen
    FxLicenseManager  located in    /Library/StartupItems/. You can use any file you want grom this location...
    - Then go to  Finder and set it to display everything in Library of the HD. Remember - for this test you pretend you don't know any file name in this folders.
    If the Finder works properly it shall display  folders  of Library >Startup items with all stuff inside, including the FxLicenseManager file I used for this test.
    Finder displayed nothing. It is obvious that for Finder, certain locations are off limits. That's why I consider Finder as a faulty.
    Of course if someone can set the Finder's  options to do the above search and succeed, I'll be glad to try ...:-)
    At this point, what I gather from this discussion is that :
    1. Finder (Spotlight) feature is not to be trusted,despite number of fancy but rather useless options.
    2. If you need to really find everything usually not displayed by Finder you better get real  searching software.

    Hi Hans-Günter,
    Thank you for answering!
    Unfortunatley I still can't find were I download the program. Following your suggested link I get to the window below.
    When I click the "Creative Cloud" Icon it  takes me to a new page.
    On that page see below there are a lot of programs like Photoshop etc. but there is NO icon for Creative Cloud.
    It looks the same when I log in. Any suggestions?
    Next page:
    Thank you,

    I have bought the CS5 but can not find serialnumbers for the whole suit. Only for PS.

    Hi,
    Which CS5 suite have you purchased?
    This document has guidelines on locating your serial number depending on the mode of delivery of your purchase:
    Find a Serial Number
    You also mention that you are able to locate the serial number for Photoshop. Did that come as a part of the suite or did you purchase Photoshop as a standalone application?

  • Hi, I have recently downloaded a trial version of Ps CC (up until then I have used Ps CS6). All my presets have migrated to the CC version from the CS6 one. However, I can't find any of the plug-ins which I have in CS6, such as Imagenomic Noiseware, Googl

    Hi, I have recently downloaded a trial version of Ps CC (I am still using Ps CS6). All my presets have migrated very nicely to the CC version from the CS6 one. However, I can't find any of the plug-ins which I have in CS6, such as Imagenomic Noiseware, Google NIK Collection, etc. in the CC version. How do I "migrate" the plug-ins to Ps CC? I would appreciate some help with this. Thanks

    Plug-Ins are not Presets.  You need to install Plug-in into CC just like you had to install Plug-ins into CS6.
