I seem to have some back ground music playing but dont know how to turn it off. It may be linked to the desk top background that changes picture.How do I turn it off? i have looked at control panel but nothing there seemed to be the right choice
I'm having trouble with changing my desktop background. My laptop is a Toshiba and I use windows 7. I've tried changing it but it won't work and when i was trying to fix it last sunday my desktop screen went black (my icons are still there but the backgroundis black) and i cannot change it whatsoever.
I have new Dell 2250 laptop and I'm trying to figure out a way to turn off the screen after a few minutes while I have the Windows Media Player going? I have tried this on my desktops over the years and never had any luck so I usually just turned off the monitor manually.
When the screen shuts off due to time or the lid being closed, it doesn't seem to want to turn back on. I can put into standby and bring it back out and it works just fine. But, I'd rather not have to do that all the time.
It's a Dell Inspiron E1505 with a ATI Radeon X1400 video card if that helps at all.
I turned my speakers off using the control panel, I went to playback devices and clicked on the speakers before clicking a drop down menu and selecting disable. It has now dissappeared, how do i re-enable?
ive been looking all over google and all i found was that winlogin.exe is a randex/RBOT virus (i honestly dont know what that means) but i could not find any solutions on how to get rid of it. Ive deleted it from my startup programs but i still think its somewhere in my computer and i cannot find it. Windows Defender will not turn back on, it freezes when i try, but windows firewall is still working. can anyone give me a fix PLEASE? i really dont want to restore my computer to that long ago or reset it completely, unless its the ONLY choice.
when I leave my computer screen and dont do anything it goes black the I have to restart even though the lights are still on ,I used to be able to touch any key and my screen would come back on.
I am using a Windows 7 32 bit computer. My windows update has been disabled and when I try to check for updates I get the 'Windows update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer.' report. Restarting the computer does not work. I think that I am missing some important updates
Windows update does not appear in the Services menu.
I read that windows update is linked to windows defender, which I have found is also not running and will not turn back on. When I attempt to turn it on I get error code: 0x80070424, and it also does not appear in the Services menu.
I am using McAfee which I think could be interfering with Defender, I also ran a Security Check that I found through a previous thread, these were the results:
Results of screen317's Security Check version 0.99.43 Windows 7 Service Pack 1 x86 (UAC is enabled) Internet Explorer 8 Out of date! ``````````````Antivirus/Firewall
so the Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit install is fresh, and all the drivers are the latest available. I have updated my mobo's bios to the latest version through Asus' "AI Suite II" which makes things very simple. I want my PC to be able to go into sleep mode but I don't want to have to force shutdown every time it goes into sleep mode after a time span. For some reason if I wake my PC after its been in sleep mode for a short period everything turns back on just fine... I know there might be a solution through the configuration panel
I recently put together a new build and it's been working great, the only glaring problem I have is that when the computer goes into sleep mode, it won't turn back on. Specifically, in sleep mode it goes quiet, when I click mouse/press a key then the fans start up, sounds as if it's working, but the display remains completely black, and mouse laser doesn't turn on.
My system is: - Intel i5-2500K overclocked to 4.2GHz (via motherboard overclocking utility) - ASrock Z68 Extreme4 Motherboard - Corsair Force 3 60gb ssd - Asus GTX 570 - Corsair TX M600 power supply - Corsair Carbide series 400r case (if it makes a difference?)
It has been a year or so since I got my computer with a full running copy of Windows 7 Ultimate...All of a sudden after about 6 months of owning the computer i get a message when i turn my computer back on saying Windows 7Build 7601This copy of windows is not Genuine.I bought this computer from a guy my friend knew and now i feel like i got ripped off because of this...Is there any way to fix it... tried to contact Microsoft...unresponsiv
When listening to music on my PC, it does not matter if I use Winamp, Songbird, Quicktime, Windows Media Player, or any other software. Every so often, there appears some sort of distortion, like the drive that the music is on slows down. I dont know if it is the driver or what. Its hard to explain. You have to hear it. I dont think its the mp3 file itself, cause I could play a song and it will be perfect, but then the next time I play it, it will distort. It is really driving my nuts cause I can't find the reason for it.
I am using a third party music player, MusicBee, to play my music, however if I select a folder in windows explorer of an artist that has more than one album in sub folders under the artist name then the "PLAY ALL" button does nothing.
If I select a folder without sub folders inside the PLAY button works fine and open MusicBee to play the music.
I also have VLC installed and if I right click on any music folder I get the Play with VLC option, how can I add this same option for MusicBee.
I accidentally deleted some important files/folders which caused the whole downloaded videos/games get lost in a few minutes,i didnt even notice that it was deleting.I tried system restore but it didnt work,is there any other way to get your systems time back up for 2-3 days back?
I turned my ps3 on for the first time in a good month or more tonight, planning to stream music and just have a relaxing night, but lo and behold its not working for me. I can see all my music, I can see my playlists as folders, but when i try to go into these folders, it cant find music in those playlists.
My printer keeps giving me the error message "A printer error has occurred, turn off the printer, then press on button to turn on. See your documentation" I have unistalled it held down the on button and cancel button at the same time to print a test paper, but still can't get anything to print.
Last night I was able to change the rip music pointer but today it's empty and I cannot change it to what it was.I accessed Documents/Music and chose Properties and click on Restore Defaults � did not fix the problem.Background: I'm trying to rip an audio book so I can 'copy' it to my MP3. I've done it many times before.Tried to rip the first audio book CD without the RIP MUSIC set, but got the message: "WMP cannot rip one or more tracks from CD".
When my monitor powers down after inactivity, music starts to play. I'm assuming this is part of windows 7 themes but I cant find an option to turn it off.
I am in need of a program that can organize my music, I have about 50 gigs and a large number of this mp3's are in individual folders, i would like if possible to organize them by albums ,genre, or artist.If i try to do this manually it will take me forever.
I have over 3,000 music files, and I would like to know the best way to get them into iTunes. From a lynda.com training video about using iTunes, I learned that there is a folder called "Automatically Add to iTunes", which is monitored by iTunes for new files to import into the iTunes library. However, I would like to know if this is the best way to do this. For example, can I just *move* my 3,000 music files into this 'Automatically Add to iTunes' folder and then let iTunes do its thing?* ill iTunes *move*the files that it is able to manage*OUT*of this folder and into one of its managed folders, such that there would be no duplicate file left behind? Is it correct in saying that the files that are left in this folder that were not able to be handled by iTunes and must be handled differently before they can be imported into iTunes. Or is there just an all around different, and better, way to get these music files into iTunes?
The other question I have involves 'restoring' a previous iTunes library that was backed up to disc (CD or DVD). I have a couple of these and want to _merge_ them with my existing (current) iTunes files, but in a way that I don't have 2 folders for some artists and double tracks, etc. How can I *best* import these iTunes library back ups into my latest iTunes installation.Last is a question which is about ripping my audio CDs into iTunes. I have 2 optical drives on my computer, and I would like to know which one will be most efficient at ripping audio CDs into iTunes. Is there someway to test the read / error correct speed of both drives to get an idea of which one is going to be faster?
I have windows 7 operating system on a compaq labtop and im having a problem importing music files from folders to media library. Also i cant play music files from the folders when i click on them nothing happens.
I have a Dell Inspiron with Windows 7. My problem is that with any video, music,instructional or otherwise, it will play for only a few seconds, stop then start again after approx. a minute or so. This keeps repeating and makes watching any videos impossible. I first noticed it on You Tube, but now it is on any videos anywhere. I tried to preview a musical greeting card to send to a friend, and the audio on that did the same thing.
I have a laptop , windows 7 , HP IE and when I post something and hit enter I get musical sounds , sometime trupets . where is that coming from ? Never had it before
As the title suggests, I`m trying to pin a one-click shortcut to the taskbar of a Windows 7 system for My Music.I can create and pin a shortcut to Libraries but not directly to the music folder and right clicking on the My Music icon doesn`t give `pin to taskbar` as an option.I`ve attempted to make a new shortcut (right-click on desktop and choose New... ) and entered the path to the music folder but again, I can`t seem to work out how to pin it.
