Disabling ITunes Ping Service Of Social Networks?
Sep 29, 2010
Apple introduced a new social network in the latest version of iTunes called Ping that allows you to "follow your favorite artists and friends to discover the music they're talking about." If you are a music junkie that does not use Facebook you will love the service, for everyone else, almost all of the features already exist in the Facebook world. Although using Facebook may not be as elegant as using Ping, it is worth the few extra clicks to avoid another separate list of friends and likes.

Does anyone know how to disable the Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing service in Windows XP SP2 in the registry? I know how to manually disable the service under Computer Management -->Services, but I would like to see if I can add/modify a registry key to do the trick.

I've installed an Access database on our network. Can I connect to my db while it's on the network using IIS? I've tried in the past and have always gotten the message telling me that the db has to be local.

I had the XP Security Center virus and, perhaps foolishly, reformatted - or more formally, "system reformat" for "returning the computer to factory conditions", as my friend who helped me with this process called it - my computer and reinstalled the operating system. But when I turned it on for the first time, there was, naturally, no internet connection. However, while I would normally proceed to set one up, there was, for some reason, no "View Available Wireless Networks" option when I right click on the little connection icon at the bottom right hand corner of the screen.

Am trying to set up a network with xp Home edition. I am curious about a couple of things. What is the difference in copying verses moving a file to the shared document folder? I would thing that by copying it, one is "duplicating" it and thereby using up resources. IF that is the case, when you access a file and make changes, are the changes saved to both places?

I recently changed my OS from Vista to XP Pro. Wireless worked fine on Vista and was brilliant. Now however, I am unable to see wireless networks in the list, without following the instructions on the Microsoft Knowledge Base website, which occurs every time my computer is restarted. This is annoying, because , if i dont have the net I cant see it and is also time consuming. Also my wireless connections are less stable, and I keep disconnecting.

I switched ISPs and the rep came to my home to help. He could not get a connection, so he installed some different lan cards until one worked. Since then, I installed a Wireless. Now, I have several drivers under networks in device manager that will not uninstall. Why? and how can I uninstall them like other devices there?

If you have ever used a computer at a high school or college, then you might have seen that pesky software that prevents you from installing any programs or web content filters that prevent you from accessing instant chat sessions. Well here is a way to send instant messages to your friends over such networks as long as you have their ip or the name of the computer on the network. An easy way to find a computer's ip address is to type cmd in the run box on your start menu. This will start the command prompt. Type "ipconfig /all" with a space between "ipconfig and /all".That will list the computer's ip address along with other network specs. Now that you have the ip of that computer, you may send instant messages to it.Go to the run command in your start menu. Type cmd in the box which will open the command prompt just like above.Type: net send "ip address" message. If the computer you were trying to send a "Hello" message to had the ip address of 127.10.1.1,you would type "net send 127.10.1.1 Hello" Additionally, it is possible to use a wild card such as * in the ip address parameter. Example: net send * message
The above command will send your message to every computer on your subnet. This is great for system administrators to send out messages to all windows computers on the network notifying them that you are going to be taking down the server or something. However, if you are a student and feel like pulling a prank at school by sending some message across the school network, you will screw yourself. With today's zero tolerance policies in schools, you will be suspended possibly even expelled. Trust me; it's happening all over the USA.

I've just got a new laptop (Dell Inspiron 1545; Celeron Dual Core T3000; Dell Wireless 1397; Vista SP1 Home Basic with Media). Not liking Vista I decided to re-install my old Windows XP (Home Edition SP2). I had already set up the Wireless connection so I went online and got information on how to install this new OS whilst keeping the Vista one on the same HD. I set up a new partition, installed XP...and now can't access Vista or get any wireless. I've tried going into Network Connections, but I don't have a wireless connection icon, there's no choice for searching for local wireless connections & I'm completely flummoxed!
Anyway, I've tried to find out how to restore my wireless - I've re-installed the XP System Software (which was for an earlier Dell Inspiron model btw), tried installing the ISP Eurotools system software as well. I have tried to set up a new network connection etc, but obviously what I really need is for my laptop to detect the available wireless connections so I can re-join the wireless network we use throughout the house. I'm currently borrowing my dad's laptop, and am really hoping someone will know how I can fix this problem!Also, please note that I'm mostly a novice at computers, so I'd really appreciate step by step instructions on how to correct this.

Just yesterday, my wireless was working. I have not added or removed any programs. Today, my computer shows that my wireless card is working properly but it is not finding any wireless networks in range, which is wrong. Yesterday, while at my apartment, I could see 9 networks, today I see none. When I go to the coffee shop, it does not see that network either. Right now I am sitting at my school and it is not picking up the network in here either. Everyone else around is picking up the network, just not me. I have checked everything and cannot figure out what the problem is. I have a Compaq Presario R3000Z, running on an AMD Athlon XP Processor (3000+), 800 MHz and 2 GB Ram. Running XP Pro w/Srvc. Pack 2.
My internal network card is a Broadcom 802.11b/g WLAN. I even uninstalled this and rebooted and after reload, it still does not want to pick up any of the networks. Any ideas where I can start? Already tried the program that fixes corrupt TCP/IP drivers (WinSock XP) and it did not work. Again, nothing was changed prior to this problem. All the settings are the way they have been for the last 3 years.

I seem to have never been off these boards since I took over my husband's computer after he died in February. It is almost new and I gave my own two year old model to a needy friend.I had my friendly neighbourhood computer guy who "fixes" things for me, to transfer all my files and programmes from one to the other.One of the several items which I can't find is my iTunes. Over the years I have compiled a fairly comprehensive list of music which I downloaded to my iPod. Now my iPod has died of old age and apparently will cost more than it's worth to repair. I don't mind buying a new iPod but i do want my tunes back.

I've been having a small problem with Roxio's Easy CD Creater 6. I installed the program on my computer an I was able to burn Cds and DVDs ok. Then I installed iTunes to connect to my iPod. I then tried to use Roxio and it could not find my DVD RW drive!! I then uninstalled Roxio and then installed it again. I could then find the DVD RW drive but iTunes said it could not initiallize the drivers to burn CDs. How do I setup my computer so I can use multiple CD/DVD buring software packages?

I wanted to remove iTunes from my PC, but my PC complained that it couldn't find missing "strings". I attempted a reinstall, but got
"1628 installation failed " message. When my PC boots up however, it loads iTunesHelper and iPodService and mDNSResponder and there are
shortcuts on the desktop, but no entry in the Add/Remove Programs list. I have followed the advice on Consumer Install Shield (eg emptied temp folder, tried to use the Windows install clean up tool) but still can neither install, nor unistall iTunes, nor Quicktime. i have Win XP with SP2, Soundblaster Audigy,Athlon 1800+, ATI Radeon 9600
