I want to run a virtual machine on my Mac pro using VirtualBox.
Here is the basic infos about it:
When I start it, and select the optical disk file. (ubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso)
It causes errors:
Any solution to this?
You can try to follow these steps instead of double click on the Ubuntu-VM icon and then choose the location of the .iso file:
At the VirtualBox Manager screen, select the newly created “Ubuntu
Linux” virtual machine and click on the “Settings” button
Click on the “Storage” tab and next to “IDE Controller” click the + icon that looks like a CD to add a new IDE Controller
Click “Choose Disk” and locate the Ubuntu ISO (named something like ”
ubuntu-11.10-desktop-amd64.iso”) that you downloaded earlier, then
click “OK” and close out of Setting
Taken from here
Sounds like a bad ISO, have you verified the signature?
If it does verify then I would go through the normal troubleshooting steps.
restart virtual box
restart your computer
look for any software that could mess up reading iso's (some sort of 3rd party disk utility)

In linux, there can be dedicated jupyter lab port that is always available. User does not need to launch Jupyter Lab from terminal.
How can something similar be achieved in windows. So that even if I restart my machine I still can visit the page and expect jupyter lab to be running.
Kindly note I don't want to use jupyter-lab desktop instead.
Basically I want a bookmark saved and when I open the page it automatically triggers a live jupyter lab workspace as is the case in linux ports.
Probably in Linux kernel based OS, JupyterLab is converted to a service. You can check all services with systemctl --type=service --state=active command. In Windows, if you want a similar experience to enabled services of a Linux kernel based OS, you can easily create a new startup item. To do that:
1- Create a shortcut with the command that you use to start JupyterLab:
a. Right click to an empty part of your desktop -> New -> Shortcut
New shortcut creation
b. Write "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" /k <terminal_command_for_jupyterlab> to shortcut's location.
JupyterLab command shortcut
This shortcut will run the command for JupyterLab. Give an appropriate name to your shortcut.
2- Add this shortcut to startup items:
a. Press Win+R buttons.
b. Write shell:startup to Run window.
c. Copy your shortcut and paste your shortcut to folder that is opened with previous step.
After all these steps, JupyterLab should be started automatically without user interaction on each startup of Windows.
I installed windows 10 on my computer.
Every time I restart my computer, my all new files disappear
and my desktop is empty!!!
Is it a bug or setting issues?
How can I restore my files back
Thanks in advance!
You somehow corrupted your explorer.exe or changed a registry setting :
If you corrupted explorer.exe, best bet is to do a repair or system restore.
To check if explorer.exe is set to your shell:
Ctrl+Alt+Del to bring up task manager. Click File>Run new Task.
Type REGEDIT, click ok.
Click the plus sign (navigate through) entries:
-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
-SOFTWARE
-MICROSOFT
-WINDOWS NT
-CurrentVersion
Click the folder WINLOGON
in the box to your right, find the entry Shell.
If the data correspondig to it is not Explorer.exe, double click Shell and modify it to Explorer.exe.
Close the registry,
Ctrl+Alt+Del to bring up Task Manager.
File>New Task. Type explorer,
click ok.
I think something is gone wrong by the installation. You can look for the files in C:/users/"you username"/desktop if they arent show there you can try other users in the /user/ directory. Maybe you have a bit of luck and the files are stored by the wrong user by some weird reason.
In the most cases the best solution is to reinstal Windows 10. I think it is faster than looking for an solution. (when you havent install a lot of software)
How you can restore your windows (clean instal) it is explained in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzTNjs8k15Q
Make sure you have an backup from your data ;-)
(sorry for bad english, iam from holland ;-) )
yes it looks like the installation process has not been taken place properly without any interruptions.
The most convenient solution in my experience is:-
1.search locally 'recovery options'through windows 10 search icon on the left bottom corner
2.click "get started" button under "reset my pc".
3.select the option "keep my files".
then once you are safely back in windows 7, again start the process of updating to windows 10 in a fresh manner WITH the pc plugged in to power and with a stable internet connection.
How can I upload the example "blinky" to the TI CC3200 Launchpad "firmware"?
I mean, I would like to plug in the board and the blinky example starts automatically on the startup of the board.
Thank in advance
You have to flash the flashmemory on the launchpad with a flashtool like CCS UniFlash.
Download CCS UniFlash. Once you're done with that, launch it and choose new target configuration. You will have an option on the left side that lets you choose the local url to your bin (or in this case, blinky bin file, which is typically in your SDK folder). Once you're done with that, you should be able to program it via the program button.
The correct and complete method is to follow the procedure mentioned here.
Note that you have to press on the file "/sys/mcuimg.bin" under "System Files", for the contents of the image displayed on the website to be shown.
Just want to add few lines on top of above answer.
1) When you build you project in CCS it will create .bin file in release folder of your project directory which you will flash in cc3200.
2) While doing so make sure cc3200 is in programmed mode.(SOP2 Jumper is on).
3) After you successfully flashed the .bin just remove the SOP2 and press reset.
Cheers !
After modifying my "hosts" file I have appended the location for "testunc" to "127.0.0.1". When I type in the path "\testunc\share" into "Run" (I have a shared folder on my C:\ drive called "share") I receive an authentication prompt. I am asked for the credentials to the "Guest" account on my local machine. Though the "Guest" account does not have a password, it always fails.
I am coding an application locally for use on a standalone network. I need to simulate the UNC path locally so that I can see if the application will work on the actual network.
\127.0.0.1\share works great, \localhost\share yields the following alert: "You were not connected because a duplicate name exists on the network."
Edit & Answer
Since I only have 9 rep at the moment I can't self answer for 6 more hours. I will self answer later on. Answer is as follows:
Ok, figured it out. I don't advise doing this if there are security concerns on the local PC that you will be using. I.E. undo this once you've done what you need.
Do all this after modifying your C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file with the new hostname and IP.
Required Steps Overiew
Install Loopback adapter from Microsoft (might not matter)
Modify registry to disable loopback authentication
Modify registry to disable strict name checking.
Step Breakdown
First install the loopback adapter following these instructions (this is on Windows XP mind you). Go into the properties for this adapter and change its static IP address and gateway if you like. It will work the same way as Localhost but use a different IP.
Follow the instructions in the technet post referenced in my comments above (enumerated below):
Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
Locate and then click the following registry subkey:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
Right-click Lsa, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
Next open your registry (windows + r, 'regedit' in the run prompt).
Type DisableLoopbackCheck, and then press ENTER.
Right-click DisableLoopbackCheck, and then click Modify.
In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.
Restart the computer.
After reboot you must now disable strict name checking following the instructions from this article (enumerated below):
Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
Locate and click the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
On the Edit menu, click Add Value, and then add the following registry DWORD value: DisableStrictNameChecking
Right-click DisableStrictNameChecking, and then click Modify.
In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.
Restart the computer.
After the last restart you will be able to path to a "simulated" unc location on your localhost computer. This should help in testing network deployed applications / scripts on a standalone system.

I have just set up a Guest Windows 2008 R2 Standard Edition 64bit (VirtualBox on Windows 7 64 bit host) for some testing.
I have found that while "inside" the remote desktop environment (i.e. I remote onto the guest ip from the host) that copy and paste does not work. When I say "does not work" let me be explicit.
Assume I am logged onto the Win2008 machine via RDC
Nothing is in the copy/paste buffer. I can mouse click some text and then rclick copy. I can then right click and click "paste" but nothing happens. I can see the "choice" is enabled to paste bu nothing happens. The caret stays put.
CTRL+C / CTRL-V / CTRL-X does not work in RDC land
I am not talking about going in-between copy/paste RDC land/host land.
HERE is the double whammy: when I do the above it then "infects" my host pc so that copy paste is unavailable there too. if PRT SCR doesn't work any more.
I have tried:
restarting the guest os and host os
in group policy editor I have disabled "do not allow clip board redirection" ( I can't give you the full path to this copy/paste just broke again)
I have made sure that in RDC "options" for local resources include clipboard.
NB: if I don't touch RDC at all and log into the guest OS via the console copy paste works perfectly
Kill the rdpclip.exe process using the Task Manager. Then, create a new process named rdpclip.exe. This will solve your problem.
Follow these steps in Remote Machine.
Stop the rdpclip process
Open Task Manager.
Go to process tab and find rdpclip
Choose rdpclip and End that task.
Start rdpclip.exe
Go to start menu and open Run command
Open rdpclip.exe and click Ok button.
Copy paste should work now.
it appears this is a flaw with VirtualBox
these posts covers it

(In VirtualBox) SETTINGS->GENERAL->[Advanced]->Shared Clipboard {disabled}
There are multiple things to check.
Restarting rdpclip.exe is a worthy try if the copy/paste fails sporadically, meaning we might on a process in a previous session.
On the client side, we check the RDP Options. Click on the Show Options button in the bottom, pick the third tab Local Resources. Make sure Clipboard is checked.
On the remote server side, we want to check Remote Desktop Session Host Configuration (Win Server 2008+).
Double click the connection to open its Properties window.
In the tab named Client Settings, Make sure Clipboard is not disabled.
We need to log off from the remote desktop.
