Burnt Cd's


Posted Thursday July 23 2009, 11:03 am

I'm gonna try to describe this the best way I can and I hope at least someone knows what Im talking about. Ok so everyone knows how to burn a cd. I have tons of burnt cds in my car some are mine and some are ones that I have accumulated from other ppl over the years. Theres some cds that I have gotten from other ppl that when I play them the song title and artist scrolls across the screen of my cd player in my car. I want to make my cds do that when I burn them. I have asked people before and someone said that whoever made the cd's named the songs in their computer before burning it but Im not really sure what that means or how they did it. If anyone knows what Im talking about and knows how to do it please tell me. Thanks!

Vivitar Vivicam 5100 digital camera working as a webcam? HOW!?!?!?


Posted Thursday July 23 2009, 4:55 am

My computer and my camra are being a pain. See i would like to use my camra as a webcam, according to the websites selling it you are able to use it as a web cam with no extra needed things to buy to make this work. Anyways I have plugged the camra in thro the usb port and a screen pops up on the camra that say disk drive, pc cam and pictbridge. I selected the pc cam and tried to get it to work but the thing said there was one hooked to my computer. I have a Compaq computer and a Vivitar Vivicam 5100. My computer does have a program to install webcams in all image related things but i can't find my brand of camra on there so im sorta wondering if you might be able to tell me how to fix my little problem.

Problems with a software - DVD-MOVIEALBUMSE 4.2


Posted Wednesday July 22 2009, 11:16 pm

Hi, I have recently bought digital camcorder Panasonic VDR-D300EB. It came with a CD which had three programs - a DVD-Ram driver, DVD-moviealbumse 4.2 and DVDfunstudio. I downloaded them one by one. After I downloaded dvd-moviealbumse 4.2, it did not install properly as when I tried to run the program, it showed errors in some files. I tried to re-install it using CD, but it said that progam already installed, please uninstall. But, it was not listed in add/remove program. I could not see any uninstall file in its program file. So, I deleted the files from the program. But, I had same message when I tried to re-install. Since, then I tried restoring my system to previous dates, and also edited the registry - I managed to find one entry with...

Blogging


Posted Friday July 17 2009, 5:42 pm

I have a blogger.com account, but I was just wondering if it's possible to make that private. I want every entry to be specifically for my eyes, and I tried to figure it out, but I couldn't.. lol.

If for some reason I'm not able to make it private, are there any other blog websites you would recommend that are good to use? Thanks.

IP address?


Posted Sunday July 12 2009, 4:05 am

So I was reading a question here about IP addresses and I started to wonder what one was, and then I looked up IP address and a website told me mine, and I tracked it all the way to my house!

My question is, how can people find MY IP address, and if they can, can't they find out where you live?

internet?


Posted Saturday July 11 2009, 9:53 am

ok, on this game my little sister plays she was having problems. so this is what the game told her to do:
Please make sure that all of your pop up blockers are off. If you have a router,
please make sure that the HTTP port 80 is open and the FTP port 21 is open.

If this still does not fix the problem, contact your internet service provider
to check that your security settings on your modem are not set too 'high'.

I'm pretty sure we don't have a router because i have wireless internet.. so i don't think i do?

i'm guessing that the modem is set to high, or something.

do i have to call my internet? or does anyone know how to do this??

A little creeped, IPs?


Posted Friday July 10 2009, 12:45 pm

Yesterday, I was on AIM, and got a random IM. The guy stated his name, and started talking randomly. He mentioned the state I was in, which again I don't know this person. It started to freak me out, so I signed out.

This might be someone I know just messing around, but somehow I doubt it.

Now, online, I have a Facebook/MySpace and a general e-mail for both. And then I have a plethora of other e-mail that I use for play, signing up for forum boards and such, and none of my Instant Messenger services are hooked to the Facebook/Myspace anymore.

I recently learned about IP addresses, and again, was getting a little freaked. Now then, my question.

Can someone find your exact locatio...
