I have a Samsung 500T1C laptop running windows 8. I do not like the touchpad, it is a nuisance when I am writing so I take it out of service. Suddenly mine has come back to life and I know there is a box somewhere I can tick to again discontinue its use....But I ca'nt find it!!!! Anyone know...

Having a lot of problems with restore, Only one choice is usually given and most times the computer fails to restore blaming a security program for its failure. Usually in desperation I do a complete 'back to factory' reset. I would like to find a good restore program but can't find in the...

Thanks for reply.. Tried this, box was unchecked. Tried it with box checked but nothing happened. Deigh

I have a Samsung 500T1C laptop running windows 8. I have a program I use regularily .When opened it should show copies of the book covers for major jazz fake chord books. Since a crash all I get now is the pix shown which is all the books under a Acrobat reader icon. How can I get back to...

Answers to my question seem to suggest that extender could be intermittently faulty. I will look into purchasing another one and make comparison. Deigh

OK but accept it is not safe, but it is cheap. I can use a gig a day free!!! Have tried troubleshooting icons but they have not helped me at all. Without the extender the computer should read my signal from my smartphone. When problems have arisen I have disconnected extender and tried using my...

Sorry I gave wrong info. Auckland library is a private network. What could be not safe about it? Anyway, this is not answering my question, which is Where in my computer would I look to re-establish a failed connection? Deigh

I'm sorry for your answer. I thought I'd found at last a forum where Help was available. This is probably the tenth forum I've thrown my problem to and none of the rest could give me any decent answers either. Is there any reason why bluetooth should not work on windows 8? Do you know people...

Bluetooth switch OK, I will pursue that after getting bluetooth to work just transferring data or music from my computer to receiver or phone. Most important at the moment is to get the thing working, can you help?

Yes, with the Targus came a disc, halfway through downloading a message came up saying that there was a later version already in my computer. After a few failures I contacted Targus and they came up with a lot of instructions whereby I dumped it and downloaded new stuff. this didn't work. Since...

Samsung XE500T1C-A01AU using Windows 8 I need to play my music programs like Encore and Band in a Box through an amplifier. ( I use this to provide backing rhythms for my guitar playing). Had a lot of problems with a wire connection so eventually gave this angle away and decided to go...
