I believe most of the techies would be familiar with C Language. The beauty of C is in its simplistic yet so powerful nature. There are times when you need to create a simple program to a certain job but you don’t have the Turbo C installed on your system or you have written a code in C and want to test it out but you don’t have access to a C Compiler. In such cases an online C compiler can come very handy.

Working with an online version of a compiler is very easy; all you need to do for compiling your C program is to write the program and then click the “submit” button to check out its output. Apart from just running and checking the code you also get an option to download your code file. A code file is a simple text file with a “.C” extension.

IDEOne.com :

IDEOne is a compiler that allows you to compile programs online in more than 40 languages including C.  To Compile a C code on IDEOne follow the below steps:

1. Open the IDEOne.com url in browser.
2. After the page loads, select your language form the List box present on the left.
3. Now paste your code in the text field, if you want to see the code with all the syntax highlighting click checkbox that says syntax highlighting.
4. Now when you have written the code in the text field, click the submit button.
5. If your code is correct, with no syntactical or logical errors then it will show you the output of the code.

Few days back when I was working on my old PC I received an error “Word cannot start the converter mswrd632.wpc”, while I was trying to open a word document. The problem was quiet strange whenever I used to click the “Ok” button the error message was displayed again recursively but on clicking the close “X” button one or two times the document just opened normally.

After some research and hit and trial approach I was finally able to fix the problem. Today I will be sharing the fix for this issue:

Reason Behind this error:

Actually this issue is a result of a security update MS09-073. Whenever a simple text file or some other file which is not a Microsoft Word Binary file, but has a “.doc” or “.docx” extension is opened in Microsoft Word then the default converter of Microsoft Word fails to initiate the conversion process and this results into an error, “Word cannot start the converter mswrd632.wpc”.

How to Fix this issue:

Fixing this issue is quiet simple; all you need to do is to simply unregister the mswrd632 converter. Follow the below steps to unregister mswrd632.wpc.

Method 1- Manually Unregistering the Text Converter:

• Hit the keys “Win+R”, this will open RUN window.
• In Run, type “regedit” (without quotes) and hit enter, this will open registry editor.
• Now if you are having a 32 bit system then navigate to the path

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Text Converters\Import\MSWord6.wpc

If you are on a 64 bit system then navigate to the path

• Now Right click this key as shown in the below image and click the “Delete” option.
• This will solve the problem with Microsoft Word but now you won’t be able to open these files in WordPad anymore.
• To correct the WordPad issues navigate to the key:

For 32 bit system:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\WordPad

For 64 bit system:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\WordPad

•  Now inside the WordPad key, create a new “Dword” value called “AllowConversion” and enter its value as 1.
• Restart your system and the issue will be fixed.

Method 2 – Fixing the issue by using Microsoft Patch:

As this problem is caused by Microsoft update hence Microsoft has made a patch to correct this issue. Simply visit the page http://support.microsoft.com/kb/973904

• Download the fix 50352 from the page.
• Close all the Office applications and run the path.
• The patch will automatically do all the steps mentioned above and finally it will prompt you to restart the system.
• After restarting the system the issue mswrd632.wpc will be fixed.

That’s all about it. In case you face any other problems please let us know in the comments section we will try to help you out.

In today’s digital age, laptops or notebooks have become a vital part of our day to day life. “Laptop battery not charging” is a very common problem which almost every one of us has been through someday. This word in itself is a nightmare for many of us and really leads to hell lot of frustration. If your laptop battery is not charging then this article will be of great help.

Laptop’s Power Adapter

I have seen many times the problem is with laptop’s power adaptor and we spend our time cursing the battery.
It’s a very simple and basic thing to do before trying out other options. You could follow below steps to do this:

• Try any other adapter by borrowing it from your colleague or friend. Please ensure that the adaptor is of same make and model as your original adapter.
• Plug in the borrowed adapter into the power socket.
• Connect the borrowed adapter into the laptop’s power slot.
• Now check if the laptop’s power slot light has turned on. (Please note that this might work only in some laptop’s like HP wherein it turns light blue as soon as the power is plugged in).
• Now see the tray icon of battery and check if it is showing that it’s plugged in and charging.

If this has worked for you and your laptop battery is charging now. Then it simply means that your laptop’s power adapter is faulty. You might need to replace or repair it depending on the intensity of damage. So head onto your nearest Authorized Dealer or Repair Centre to get it corrected soon. However for a long term view it would be very beneficial if you start taking care of your battery from now onwards.

If above listed method hasn’t worked out for you then it means that your laptop adapter is fine but the problem is likely to be with the battery. Read on to get rid of this problem of laptop battery not charging.

Try Rebooting Battery:

Another possible reason for laptop battery not charging might be that the battery is loose and not connected properly or has been displaced somehow. You could follow below steps to check it:

• First of all shut down your laptop.
• After it shuts down completely, unplug it from power supply.
• Now carefully open the battery panel.
• Remove the battery and clean any dust or dirt with a dry cloth.
• Now plug the battery back into its compartment. Ensure that the battery has been correctly placed at right (positive and negative) terminals.
• Please ensure that the battery is not loose in the compartment. If yes then for the time being you could add some paper on sides to make it tightly fitted into the compartment.
• Now after closing the battery compartment, plug in the power supply of the laptop.
• Restart the laptop now and check if the battery is getting charged now.

If yes then the problem is the loosely fitted battery. You could visit your nearest service centre to get it permanently solved. However for the time being you could easily follow step 6.

N.B.: Please do not put any easily inflammable material like plastic etc as it might get melted because of the laptop heat and might damage it completely.
If this method also didn’t work then there is a chance that your battery drivers are corrupted.

Re-installing Battery Drivers:

As already mentioned if none of the above listed methods have worked out for you then there are substantial chances that somehow your battery drivers have been corrupted. Please use below steps to get it corrected.

• Firstly you need to set up a restore point so that in case of any unfortunate event you could easily restore your laptop.
• After setting up a restore point you need to navigate to Device Manager.
• Windows Vista or Windows 7 Users:

• Click on Start.
• Now type “DEVICE MANAGER” and hit Enter button.

• Windows XP Users:

• Click on Start.
• Now right click on “My Computer” icon.
• Select Properties.
• After selecting Properties, Click Hardware Tab.
• Now select Device Manager Option.

• After navigating to Device Manager. Open it.
• Now search for the word “Batteries” in the panel. Mostly it will be available on top of the list only.
• Once you search it, click on “+” icon to expand the panel.
• Now you will see something with a name “Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery” as shown in below picture.

• Right click on it and select Uninstall option.

• Please cross check that you have not uninstalled any other driver and after cross-checking confirm the Un-installation.
• Once the device driver for battery is uninstalled. Ensure that the driver has also vanished from the Device Manager’s list.
• Now click on “Action” menu available at top of the window.

• After the Action Menu is opened select “Scan for Hardware Changes” as shown in above picture.

Now the device drivers of your laptop battery have been re-installed. So in case the problem was due to corrupted drivers then it should have been corrected by now. Please plug in the power supply and check if your battery is charging now. If not then please follow below listed method to get rid of the problem.

Drain your battery completely using BIOS

I know you will be wondering that how come will we get the battery drained out completely as normally windows hibernates after the battery is less than a particular percentage. Please follow below step to achieve this:

• First of all remove the power supply.
• Now keep the laptop on until the battery level decreases and windows is automatically hibernated.
• Once the laptop is hibernated successfully, reboot it and quickly open the BIOS Settings.
• There are various ways to open BIOS Settings depending upon BIOS and other hardware changes. You could easily navigate to BIOS by reading the BIOS Screen carefully; it will be flashing a message like “For Set Up Press that key”. You need to simply press the key which has been mentioned in the message.
• After this a text based screen for settings will be displayed.
• Please do not press any key or do not do anything on this screen. Leave this screen as it is.
• After sometime the battery will be completely drained out and your laptop will be shut down.

Now try to charge the battery by plugging in the power supply. If this approach has not worked as well then the bad news is that your battery is dead. You can either go to the authorized service centre to get a replacement done. Else you could buy another battery. Another silly option is that you have to live with it that your battery is gone for a toss and your laptop will work only when connected to a power supply.

This was all from me on laptop battery not charging. Do share your feedback or concerns related to any issues related to charging.

LG has intensified the low cost smartphone battle in-between the mobile phone giants like HTC, Samsung by launching LG Optimus L3 E400 an entry level Android Smartphone. I will be skipping its specifications, features and will quickly jump onto our topic on “How to Root LG Optimus L3 E400”. The best feature of this smartphone is its cost which is around $150 or Rs.7949. I may not be wrong in quoting that its really going to give a tough challenge to other low cost Android smartphones which have been recently launched in market like Samsung Galaxy Y, Samsung Galaxy Y Duos, and LG Optimus Me P350.

Before rooting your phone, you must go through the advantages and disadvantages of Rooting that have been mentioned in this article. I have also listed some of them here.

Advantages of Rooting:

• Rooting gives you full control of the phone.
• Rooting gives you the ability to change system files like Themes, Core Apps (maps, calendar, clock, etc)
• Rooting enables you to run special apps like Tether Apps.
• Rooting enables you to back up your data using apps.
• Rooting also enables you to transfer your browser cache to SD Card from Phone Memory.
• Rooting also enables you to transfer your installed apps to SD Card from Phone Memory.

Disadvantages of Rooting:

• Rooting voids the warranty of your expensive device. Please think multiple times before going for rooting as in case of any unfortunate event your device would not be protected under warranty and you might have to bear the expenses of repair, etc. If you don’t worry about warranty or in case your warranty is going to expire soon then please go ahead with rooting.
• If you root your device then you would not be able to get OTA (Over The Air) free software upgrade, although you could upgrade your software independently using apps and other programs after rooting.
• Rooting might result in Bootlooping. In Bootlooping your phone boots or reboots continuously. To get rid of this you could either restore back to your factory settings or else you could to do a Stock ROM.
• Bricking is another drawback of Rooting. Bricking means your phone will be completely non-functional.  Although all rooting procedures do not lead to bricking. However in case the rooting procedure is very complex then there are considerable chances of getting your phone bricked.

How to Root LG Optimus L3 E400

Essentials:

Before rooting your phone please ensure that you have fulfilled below listed prerequisites:

• Please take a back up of your applications using any File Managing Tool.
• Also take a back up of all files stored on your phone and SD Card memory card including contacts, SMS, MMS, music, videos, etc before proceeding as Rooting will delete all your data.
• Ensure that USB drivers are installed on the computer from where you are going to root LG Optimus L3 E400.
• In order to do a faster rooting please disable antivirus and firewall on your computer.

Ensure that USB Debugging is enabled on your device. Please navigate to Settings > Application > Development and make sure if USB Debugging is checked as shown in below image.

Yesterday on 27^th April 2012 Mozilla launched Firefox 13 Beta version into the market. Firefox 13 is a faster and much secure web browser when compared to its predecessors or the other products currently in the market.

Let’s peep into History:

Firefox was one of the first browsers that shook the world with its features when people were just happily browsing the internet with Internet explorer. It gave them a better web browsing experience. Meanwhile the stock/default web browser bundled with Windows OS never looked to outshine Mozilla Firefox. It was no match to the features of Mozilla Firefox. So, Firefox became the market leader in a short time.

But the kingship of Firefox was short lived and the Internet’s Big “G” launched its Chrome browser in the market and from there onwards both these browsers are fighting really hard to bring the best. And for becoming the best they roll out updates every second day to outshine one another.

Features of Firefox 13 Beta:

The new feature that Firefox 13 Beta incorporates is “SPDY”. This protocol is intended to become the successor of HTTP. SPDY protocol reduces the amount of time it takes to load a webpage.

According to Mozilla “SPDY encrypts the communications with SSL, which makes the browsing more secure”. It also makes the chances of a hacker to overhear your web communications thinner. Although in today’s time the websites that supports SPDY protocol are very few in numbers and hence the users will only see the difference in the sites that support SPDY Networking.

Firefox 13 Beta also has an upgraded homepage design which provides easy access to the bookmarks, settings, history, add-ons and downloads etc. The browsing tabs are also redesigned to match the Chromes looks. New feature “Quick Links” is also added to the browser that can be customized at a single click.

What’s new for Software Developers?

The beta version of Firefox 13 also has some updates for the Software Developers, the tools like page inspector now also allow you to gaze into the CSS pseudo classes and the Style editor has the capability to save the CSS files via file:// URLs. This makes the life easier as it doesn’t prompt you to make workflows for experimenting with CSS files.

You can download Firefox 13 Beta version form the official Firefox site at:
Mozilla Firefox Beta’s Website.

Now we just have to see that whether Google Chrome has any answer to Firefox 13 or not.

Happy Raging!

Images are the most valuable treasure for a photographer or a designer. Suppose a cameraman works all day and night trying to capture a perfect shot and then someone simply copies the image and uses it on his website without giving any credit to the photographer. How does it make him feel? So, today in this post I am going to tell you about an algorithm called Reverse Image search which can prove quiet useful in such scenarios. Basically the algorithm was called as Reverses Image Search but when Google implemented it, and then people began to call it as Google Reverse Image Search.

What is Google Reverse Image Search?

Google Reverse Image Search is a simple tool that lets you search the images reversely on Google Images. By reversely I mean that this process of searching image is totally reverse to the normal process. In the normal process you enter the keywords associated with the image and Google shows you the most relevant images based on the keywords, but here the process is exactly opposite here in this tool you supply Google with an image and Google gives you all the images that resemble to the image that you had supplied.

So, this gives an opportunity to the photographers and designers to check whether their photos or designs have been copied by someone or not. If they find someone who is using their image without taking their permission or without giving due credit to the person who has actually taken or designed the image then they can take a legal action against such people.

For Whom Google Reverse Image Search is Beneficial?

Google’s Reverse Image Search is beneficial for anyone who wants to search the internet for an image that they already have. Most common examples are:

• Monitor your self designed infographics being republished.
• Search internet for the screen shots that your guest authors are using. This gives you another tool to check whether the posts are original or copied.
• You can also check if any splog is copying your content. Splog is a king of blog that automatically copies niche related content. Although Google panda has slapped tons of splogs but still they can harm you if you allow splogs to copy your content without giving any credit to your blog.

What is the logic behind Reverse Image Search?

The Reverse Image Search on Google is based on the computer vision techniques. In this technique the computer ties to match an image based on the RGB and Monochromatic correlations along with the other images that Google has already indexed.

I would like to mention it here that according to my personal observations I have found that it is not 100% correct but sill can be quiet useful in finding out the most resembling images of another image.

How to do a Reverse Image Search:

Performing a Reverse Image Search on Google is quiet easy and it doesn’t needs you to be some nerd or a rocket scientist.

If you want to perform Reverse Image Search for an image on your computer.

• All you have to do is to visit: www.images.google.com

• Simply drag your image in the search textbox, after this Google will start to upload your image as shown in the above screenshot.

• Now after uploading it will show you other images that resemble to the image that you have uploaded.

If you want to perform Reverse Image Search for an image on some url.

• Go to www.images.google.com

• Click the camera icon.

• Enter the image url and Google will show you all the other images that resemble to your image.
