How do i stop charms keep from constantly popping up?

I want to stop the date and time on the left hand side of the screen from constantly popping up. I also want to stop charms on the right hand side of screen to stop popping up constantly. As I find these 2 things happening very annoying as it is so often and when this happens I have no use of my laptop. I can't move cursor or scroll and continue with what I'm doing.

Sounds like somebody put a nasty virus on your Pc known as Windows 8. Ha just kidding but it is lousy. I run Linux Mint so I don't have to deal with such junk. At the Microsoft Community others are talking about your issue , maybe you can get some answers there. Good Luck.

SOURCE: Cursor will move to another part of the screen-no apparent reason

This is often caused by the "joystick" in the middle of the keyboard or the touchpad. If you can disable them individually in the control panel and use an external mouse, you may be able to narrow down the situation. Cleaning the touchpad and blowing out the keyboard around the joystick may clear it up.

SOURCE: Synaptics Touchpad Enhancements stops working

Hi!
I resently had the same problem on my HP laptop and search Google for possible solutions. No solution works until I tried Windovs Update and then got 5 alternatives - Synaptics PS/2 port TouchPad was one of them. I update and restart and finally solve this problem.

SOURCE: I can't stop the arrow keys from scrolling the

The constant scrolling makes me think at a blocked mouse-wheel on a regular mouse for a PC.
On your Acer Notebook that "blocked mouse-wheel" means a dirt on your cursor-pad or a defective sensor on the same pad.
To fix it start by cleaning the cursor-pad with a piece of soft cloth soaked a little bit in a computer cleaning fluid (usually sold at any computer store) or soaked by few drops of alcohol.
Before any cleaning step is taken TURN OFF and UNPLUG YOUR DEVICE!
After the cleaning operation was done let it dry for about five minutes before you will plug again the power cord and you will restart your notebook.
If problem persists there's no other solution than unscrew the screw and wide open your Acer and inspect the cursor-pad. There might be a tiny little dirt stuck on the pad sensors.
DO NOT PERFORM THIS OPERATION IF THE DEVICE IS UNDER WARRANTY TERMS!!!
Any unscrewed screw voids the warranty!
Blow air very gently over the exposed sensors and be careful do not spread saliva the same time. Use instead a special spray for cleaning the keypads - sold also at the computer stores.
If the air blowing will not clean the sensors or if the problem persists think of a cursor-pad replacement for your Acer Notebook... This is the ultimate solution.

SOURCE: The page scrolls up and down - somtimes even jumps up and down - when the cursor is nowhere near the right hand of the screen where the vertical scroll bar is.

It is possible you might have picked up a virus, or a bad device driver. Try a system restore taking the computer back in time before this happened, may resolve the issue.

How do I set the time?

Hi Charles,

I presume you're referring to a chronometer watch?

You need to twist the crown (little screw on the right side of the piece) counter clockwise until it slightly pops out. This is position 1. You need to pull the crown outward gently until you feel a lug sensation. This is position 2. Turn the crown to adjust the 'date' until you reach yesterday's date (one date before what you actually want). Then pull the crown outward again feeling that lug sensation. This is position 3. Turn the crown so the minute-hand swings in the normal movement of time (don't swing it backwards). Keep doing this until the 'date' turns to the current date. Now your piece is set on the correct date and the minute-hand is in the "a.m." Now keep turning the crown until you've reach the current time (noting the am/pm period you want). Push the crown inward to Position 2, then to Position 1. Turn the crown while in Position 1 to wind the spring. How many times depends on your brand, mine is 35-40 turns. Once I am done, push in the crown and turn simultaneously to lock it down. It will stop when it is seated properly.

Good luck.

How do you adjust a citizen eco-drive time when the clocks change ?

Pull the dial out on the left hand side of the watch near the date indicator. If you only pull it out slightly (first click) it will only be able to change the date. If you pull it out further (second click) you will see that the second hand has stopped moving and you can then turn the dial to change the time. Good Luck.

On the right hand side of montior the is a screen

There might be a tool on your computer about that, you can check the utilities programs on your computer by searching in the Program groups of your Start menu and disable it. Your manual may give you some idea how to disable it. If you right click on that pop up window you might see an option to stop it from popping up. If those are not working, press CTL+ALT+DEL and select the task manager, then kill the process with a similar name. But you don't want to kill too much otherwise other applications may be affected too. Hope that helps.

Set time on Touch Screen Thermo Clock

Hi there,

Just in case you didn't manage to set the time / date on your tocuh screen thermo clock, I'll try to help you from my experience (no available manual at the moment!).

1. To set the time, touch the clock icon on the upper left corner;
2. Keep touching the screen for longer than 5 seconds, on the hour area;
3. Touch the hour area until you get what you want (if you prefer the 24 hour display style, touch repeatedly until you get the right hour without the AM / PM indicator next to it);
4. Touch the clock icon again to start the clock;
5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 to set up the minutes (the hour area will be replaced by the minutes area);
6. To set the date, tocuh the calendar icon on the left hand side;
7. Keep touching the screen for longer than 5 seconds, on the year area;
8. Touch the year area until you get what you want;
9. Touch the month area until you get what you want;
10. Touch the day area until you get what you want;
11. The screen will reverse to the time display after 5 seconds if no touch.
12. The TEMP (temperature) area, if touched, is toggling between C and Fahrenheit degrees.

P.S. I don't know if it is possible to set an earlier time / date, except touching. I mean, if 2009 is on the screen and you want 2007, you'll keep touching up to 2030 and then from 1901 up to 2007.

Hope it helped.

Dishwasher just emptying

I am at the end of my tether. I have bought a new door latch for my Bosch SGS 43E02 GB45, so door now closes properly and have managed to stop the leak under the front left hand side of the machine. Howver it sounds as if it is constantly emptying. It does not go onto the new wash cycle just keeps pumping out the water. It did run a quick rinse yestreday but now is back to the constant emptying problem. Even when I open the door it still keeps running and staying on a emptying cycle despite there being no visible water left inside the machine. Please help!!
