How do I open an HTML file as a web page on Chromebook?
EASY!You need to save the file locally to your chromebook.The chromebook does NOT need to be in developer mode.I run my Pixel 2015 Chromebook ‘out-of-the-box’ and can develop web pages just fine.download an HTML editor e.g. Caret.(I like Caret because it runs off line, better for working on underground trains and in areas where mobile data is poor.)I have an SD Card slot on my Chromebook, which I use to save this kind of thing to. (again so that I am not reliant on using google drive if I have no way to connect to it)Save the file to your Chromebook. I know it sounds obvious but remember to use the .html file extension. e.g. index.htmlRemember where you saved the file e.g. SDcard/html_files/index.htmlOpen files app (icon is currently the blue circle with white folder in it)navigate to file using path you remembered in step 4 (above).Hover over file with mouse pointerPress “ALT” key and then click. (This enables you to perform a right mouse click.)From the little menu that pops up select “Open with…”Then select “View”BINGO BANGO!!!Your file will open in Chrome.If it doesn’t display correctly make sure your CSS was saved in the same folder as your html file. (or in another folder and that the path is correct, so the browser knows where to find it. )N.B. you can not run any server side code this way.As per the title of the question, this answer is only correct for HTML files.
My laptop charger is making a crackling sound; what is it?
It may have happened that there is a loose connection somewhere in the laptop. Thus the electrons are having to “jump” from one end of the connection to the other. The crackling sound is due to the friction between the air molecules and them. I would be good if you patched it up or bought a new one.
My laptop speaker is getting cracking sounds! What can I do to solve it?
You’ve likely been playing sound at a volume that was too loud for the speakers, for far too long.Crackling during audio playback, especially if it gets progressively worse AND it is always present to some degree, is typically a sign of blown speakers. It is possible that some audio files were encoded improperly, or that they included distortion that would sound like crackling… but that would be intermittent, or only present when you played those audio files.Laptop speakers weren’t meant to be used at near full volume for the majority of their use. That’s what would blow them though. If you regularly used your laptop to fill a room with sound, the speakers wouldn’t last much longer than a couple of years.At any rate, you can hope that it is the speakers, because they would be relatively inexpensive to replace or work around. A search on eBay for your model laptop and the word “speakers’ might turn up a few people who are selling the parts of their laptop. You might do a Google search for your model laptop and the word “speakers” to find a retailer selling a set.If the problem is caused by the audio chipset… well… for one thing, you’d hear the crackling in headphones and from the speakers. I don’t know if that is what is happening, but I can say that it would be one way to see if it was the speakers.So… crackling in the speakers, but it goes away with heaphones or earbuds? Get new speakers. Crackling in the speakers and the heaphones? That’s either something in the OS, or the chipset. Boot to a Linux LiveCD. Still crackles? Then it is hardware. Crackling go away with Linux at the same volumes? Problem is somewhere in your installation of Windows.What can you do to solve it? Diagnose the problem down to the cause.
How To Use Sony Handycam HDR-CX440 as a webcam for live streaming?
I am a vlogger and I am wanting to do live events with my camcorder. I have a Sony Handycam HDR-CX440. I have Windows 10. My handycam even has an option for live streaming but it's greyed out and unable to use. Is there a way that I can use my camcorder as a webcam via USB? It has wifi functionality but I can't get it to work. Is there any free app to have my camcorder into a web cam via USB?
How should I setup my home internet/wireless network?
Here is what I have...Netgear R6200 and Linksys EA4500. I have a desktop in my office at the moment with the EA4500 (primary router) in the same room. Wired connection to desktop, Xbox 360 and a wire through my home (walls and all) to our master bedroom cascaded with the R6200 (secondary router) as LAN-LAN. I am wanting to know if this is the best way to do it or not. I have been researching the heck out of this. Should I switch the routers to make the R6200 the primary? Should I use LAN-WAN? The other thing is that I have a smart tv in my living room that I currently use Wifi connection on, but I am a man and want the best picture. Should I hardwire with Ethernet powerline extenders from primary router? Or should I get a second modem, uncascade the two routers, keep one modem/router in the office and the other modem/router next to the tv, thus having two separate router setups? My overall plan is to build a media server from scratch to have EVERYTHING on it and be able to stream to any device, including the TV. This will allow me to get rid of blu ray player, cable and all my external hard drives. Just have one centralized media server. Which leads to one last question, how can I stream stuff from the server to the smart TV? Media Extender? I want to be able to control it with remote. I do not want to display mirror. Any and all information and help would be greatly appreciated.
Why is my laptop screen flickering after I accidentally dropped it to the floor?
If you are comfortable doing it, I would pop it open and look at the connections to your screen. It is possible you jarred something that either needs to be plugged in more securely or touched up with a bit of solder. Superglue can also work, and, in a pinch, I have secured loose connections with clear coat nail polish. Just be sure any solvents have dried before powering up in the off chance a spark will ignite them.
What nightvision cameras do ghost adventures use?
Some Sony camcorders have a built-in infrared emitter for those no-light black/white video captures. Look for "NightShot" or "SuperNightShot" in the feature list. For the televised folks, the Sony HVR-A1 is common (or its consumer sibling the HDR-HC1 that would be used/refurbished). The HDR-CX700 or HDR-CX900 series *might* have the capability - check the specs at sony.com. There is an inexpensive Bell & Howell camcorder with a built-in infrared emitter - but no real pro would use it...
Can you get electrocuted by earphones?
Nope! You're safe.The only way you'd get any electricity zapping you is if somehow the internal mechanisms of the earbuds in both ears were to be connected by an electrical conductor like metal.First, any plastic/casing materials around both headphones would have to break enough to expose metal.Hope this will help you.
How do I fix my laptop fan if it's making a grinding noise?
Many modern laptops have easy access to the fan and heat sink area through a small bottom cover; check if you have that. If not, then more disassembly may be required but there are how-to guides online for just about every major laptop ever made. The heat sink and fan blades will likely be filled with dust and crud which will impede cooling and the grinding noise might be a failing fan bearing or obstructions of the blade. If you can gain access, clean out the area the best you can and replace the fan if necessary, or you can apply a drop of light sewing machine oil to the bearing usually accessible under an adhesive label at the center of the fan. This is a common problem with laptops operating in dusty conditions and quite easy to fix even if you're only marginally handy.
