After I installed Ubuntu 13.10 on my old Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo Mobile laptop I could connect to my Wifi router but not connect to the internet.
The solution was hard to find but easy to fix.
1. Open up System settings and go to Network.
2. Go to wireless and select your Wifi network.
3. Select settings and go to the IPv6 Settings tab and disable IPv6(Method: ignore).
This works for me. IPv6 is the future but not for this vintage laptop!
After the installation of Windows 8 there was an error when I tried to activate:
“Activation Error: Code 0x8007232b
DNS Name does not exist”
The support pages from Microsoft pointed to the following solution:
Use MAK(Multiple Activation Key) instead of KMS activation.
Run command prompt as an adminstrator and enter the following command where xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx represents your MAK product key.:
slmgr -ipk xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx
My installation of Visual Studio 2012, VS2012 lost the squiggly and red underline feature.
Here is the small quest to get them back.
1. Go to Tools -> Options
2. In options windows select Text Editor -> C# -> Advanced.
3. Select checkboxes for Underline errors in the editior and Show live semantic errors.
Problem: When using Eclipse Juno I got this messagebox “Workspace at ” ” in use or cannot be created, chose a different one.
Solution: The solution is to delete the lock file in the workspace. If there is a process holding the file, kill javaw.exe. first.
This rather cryptical titel is one of my “note to self” post. Without the help from Google and people posting their trouble i would’nt find the solution to my OS X Lion 10.7.5 network trouble.
My problem was that i could’nt connect to internet with Safari or Google Chrome. With Networkutility i could do ping, netstat. RDP to my Windows 7 box worked. So what was the problem? I don’t know but, I followed the this thread and found the answer.
What I did was as follows:
Open: System Preferences>>Network
Marked the Wi-fi and removed it with the – sign and added it again with the + sign.
Simple but strange.
