Have you ever wanted to connect your Android devices directly to your TV? This video explains how to do this. You will need a Smart TV that connects to the Internet in order to achieve this. Most new TV’s have this capability already installed when you purchase them.
I think one of the biggest complaints about Windows 8 is the difficulty it poses with trying to navigate the operating system. That is probably the biggest complaint, besides it
being too slow. One way to get around that navigation issue is with the use of hotkeys.
Hotkeys have been around for a long time, in fact ever since the first flavor of Windows was introduced. They make many tasks simple by just using a predetermined key sequence to activate the task.
Almost all of us own a Smart Phone that is either an Android or an IOS. The majority of folks do not have Windows 8 phones simply because they do not understand them. They have a similar look to Windows 8 on your PC but there are some unique differences. One of the great features of this phone is the fact that the tiles update on their own.
While we were still getting used to Windows 8, the new Windows 8.1 has recently been released. The update promised to add some new features but the one feature that everybody was looking for, the Start Menu, was never added.
The new update makes it easier to do things such as resizing the apps on the apps screen. Of course, many of you will never use the app options but they are explained in this video.
If you are like most folks, you probably own several digital devices like a computer, a smart phone and a tablet. Sometimes when we take new pictures or download them to
our PC from a camera, you want to share them with your friends when you are out and about. There are lots of solutions that you can do this with but a trusted application known as SkyDrive from Microsoft is one of my favorites.
If you own a touch screen computer or you are using Windows 8 using a phone or tablet, navigating the operating system is somewhat different then if you are using a mouse on a conventional computer. It is true that you can mimic many of the functions that you do with a mouse but there are a ton of tricks that save you time if you are using the app powered part of Windows 8.
With the introduction of Windows 8, many folks have been totally confused on how to maneuver around this very confusing operating system. Every operating system since the inception of Windows had a handy tool called the Start Menu. For reasons unknown to anybody, Microsoft decided to make Windows 8 without it.
I cannot count how many computers we have tried to repair and the system was so slow because of the software firewall that was installed on it. Many of the high-end anti-virus programs run a very annoying software firewall that uses plenty of computer resources and often blocks common actions like going to a web page! The truth is if you have a router installed on your network, you do not need a software firewall.
How often have you been infected with a virus and you cannot do anything with your machine? Here is a great video that shows you how to use a hidden tool that is in the Malwarebytes program. The program is called Chameleon. Essentially, this program runs a separate process as a DOS prompt and allows you to kill rouge processes and download and update Malwarebytes on your local computer. As the video explains, you might have to download the program on a USB stick from a known good computer in order to execute the program.
When you think of Auto-Play, you often think of when you place a CD or DVD in your drawer and the menu pops up to give you all your options for installing the program. In the past, auto play has been blamed for injecting Malware on unsuspecting computer users. This was especially true if you were using a thumb drive. That type of infection can still be a threat but today, we are focusing another type of problem that you have a lot less control over. It is the auto playing of video content on the web.
