Is that question, or are you just letting us know? Does anyone else use the laptop besides you?

SOURCE: Sony Memory Stick Duo Adapter MSAC-M2

I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop and I have the Sony's MemoryStick Duo Adapter the MSAC M2.

I try many times putting it in the port and nothing happens. I click on the "My Computer"; to see if I can click on the "Memory Disk (E)" to open; but it says "Application Not Found".
What does that mean? When I try to eject the Memory Disk (E); it says, "An Error Has Occurred While Ejecting the Memory Disk (E)." Then when I try to "Safely Remove the Hardware"; it says, "Window can't stop your MemoryStick0 Device; because, it is in use. Close any programs or windows that might be using the device, and then try again." I am confuse; what programs or windows that can be using the device?

Can anyone help me out?

SOURCE: my laptop's sound is suddenly stopped

Right click on the my computer ICON and choose manage, then brose to device manager and see if the Sound device has a yellow ! over it if so right click on the device and choose update driver, and browse to you driver folder usually c:\ manufactors name \ Drivers\ Audio and then choose .inf file if you don't see one then see if it has a setup.exe and run it. Which should reinstall your sound driver.

SOURCE: When I plug any USB stick into the port, it isn't

One or more of the hints below will probably sort out most USB problems with most USB portable / external hard drives and OTHER devices (though not always)

A few things to check but assumes USB and Windows for other interfaces / operating systems (mac/ Linux) similar steps may be adapted to suit.

1. Ensure it is connected directly to the computer to a USB 2.0 port not a USB 1.0 port as this can have effects on performance and reliability

2. Use only the cables that came with it NOT one that fits that may have been lying around or is longer. Not all USB cables are equal even though they should be)

3. Do not connect through an external USB HUB unless that hub is USB 2.0 AND has its own power supply.

4. Use ONLY the power supply that came with it if it has an external power supply Don’t use any other unless you know it has both the same voltage and current rating e.g. 12V 500mA anything rated below that would not work properly.

5. Always use the same port for connecting your devices. Some devices do not like being switched about. If switched they may want to install software / drivers again. This can be especially true if you move a HUB to another port
6. For FLASH DRIVES you should ensure that the device is set for "quick removal" using the drive control panel properties or use the USB "Safely Remove Hardware" option. If you dont do this there is a very strong chance that any files you transfer may not be there when you plug into another computer.

If you checked and fixed anything there and still have issues then check your hardware from CONTROL PANEL / SYSTEM / HARDWARE.
Any exclamation marks by hardware need fixing before you investigate any further

USB flash drives can fail for no apparent reason.
Sandisk Cruzers are especially bad for this.

How do I watch Netflix on a non-smart Vizio TV?

Here are several answers--but keep in mind, they all involve attaching a device of some sort--whether it's a computer, a laptop, a tablet, a phone, or a device like Google's Chromecast, Amazon's Fire Stick or FireTV, or other devices similar to those I just mentioned from Google and Amazon.
You will usually need an HDMI cable to attach your device to the TV (whether it needs an HDMI cable or not depends on whether the device plugs directly into your TV's port or whether it needs a separate cable--of which there are standard HDMI, mini HDMI, and micro HDMI).
The simplest, easiest, and least expensive types of equipment to enable your non-"Smart TV" to view Netflix are the "key-fob" type devices like the Chromecast and Amazon Fire Stick (there are others, but these are the most common, most popular, and well-supported devices.)
You would simply plug the device into your TV's HDMI port, attach the power cable (these devices may be able to draw power from your TV's HDMI port, but often require a separate power adapter to be plugged into them) log onto your Google Play account or Amazon account, download and install Netflix, and log onto Netflix. Usually (but not always) the Chromecast and Fire Stick have Netflix installed, but you may need to update or download and install/reinstall the Netflix app.

After a reboot check your device manager for flags or exclamation marks and remove if present.
Again, re-boot your laptop and check your device manager.
Ounce you have cleared all marks from device manager and all is clear,
