21 of Firefox will work only in the admin. mode on Windows 7 Pro. Also, when I installed FF21 it came with a nasty virus.

These are the details. 21 FF does not work on my system, unless I choose Run as administrator. So far, none of the assumptions posted by your technical support on this issue in the past have worked.

I removed the virus and removed FF and reinstalled. The same problem. I still totally deleted and reinstalled, same problem. I installed it again under an Admin account and I still have the same problem. All previous versions of FF worked fine in user mode.

  • Acer 1810TZ webcam works only after the new installation of Windows 7

    My hard drive died so I don't have access to the recovery partition. I did a fresh install of Windows 7 on a new drive.  Everything works except the webcam.  Windows has recognized and installed the drivers (and works) but nothing can connect to it.  It was working before the accident (also W7).

    The Acer website says it is made by Chicony (is ID 0 c 45 6310 suggests Sonix) so I downloaded and installed the drivers installed and appropriate Acer Crystal Eye, but it crashes at startup without error message.  Skype and other applications cannot connect to the camera webcam.  I also tried all the other drivers on the Acer website, just in case.

    Comparability Windows Center suggests that the pilot was developed by Suyin that might be the problem.  I found some Sonix drivers that will install on the Microsoft ones but make no difference.  I tried to install and Crystal Eye running in compatibility mode.

    Any ideas how to solve this problem?  I am now at a total loss.

    Help much appreciated. Thank you.

  • Workstation 6 and the XP Mode from Windows 7 Pro

    Hello

    I wonder if somone can offer some advice?

    I am running Workstation 6.0.2 build 59824 - I recently created a Windows 7 professional virtual machine under the ' option (experimental) Edition of Windows Server 2008 x 64. Successfully installed Windows 7 and it works fine.

    However, I now have a need to run it in XP Mode to run legacy applications.

    I successfully installed XP Mode, but when I run it, I get this message:

    Cannot start windows virtual pc because hardware virtualization support is disabled.

    I downloaded the utility HAV to check if she is capable of hardware virtualization, which checked OK.

    My PC is a HP DX5750 (AMD Athlon 64 X 2 Dual Core 4200 +, 2.19 Ghz, 3.00 RAM).

    There is an option in the BIOS called "Virtualization Technology", which I ACTIVATED.

    But I think there may be something I need to change in the VMWARE Workstation environment, perhaps in the vmx configuration file?

    I'd appreciate any help you can give me.

    Thank you.

    Dave.

    Workstation 6 is not virtualize vitualization material assistance of the physical processor features.  To do this, it should be at least Workstation 8 and an AMD processor with the IVR support.

    However, there is a patch for Windows Virtual PC that will allow the use of binary translation instead of hardware-assisted virtualization.  See http://blogs.msdn.com/b/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2010/03/18/windows-virtual-pc-no-hardware-virtualization-update-now-available-for-download.aspx

    It will be slow running a VM nested this way.

  • Firefox will not display on the screen even though with Process Explorer, I see active Firefox.exe but no CPU usage

    I use Firefox as default browser v10.0.2 on Dell XPS8300 Intel Core i5 and Windows 7 Ultimate and Compaq Presario CQ57 IO IO Intel Core i3 and Windows 7 Home. More frequently on the (approximately 90% of attempts) that Dell (50% of attempts) Firefox will not display on the screen when I click the icon. Cannot display other programs when it happens. I expressly say display because I believe that Firefox has started. To work around the problem, I installed Process Explorer on both machines and launch this program first, then click on the Firefox icon. When the problem occurs I see process Firefox.exe in the list of processes; some CPU consumed but, then, no CPU activity. If I click on the Firefox icon, yet another process opens in the list of processes, but with the same answer - some consumed CPU and then no CPU activity. If I have 2 processes running and kill the process from the 1st, the 2nd poster and then everything is normal. If I do not open it treat a 2nd, but kill the 1st process then click the Firefox Firefox is displayed and all then is normal. This problem has occurred since the original on the two new machines installation. I have updated the video drivers on both computers.

    OK, let's see if we can solve this problem and make it work for you!

    First of all, if you start Firefox in safe mode (restart your computer first, then when you open Firefox, hold down the SHIFT key) it starts more reliable? This is usually caused by a defective module. If this does not help, then restart Firefox, go to the Firefox, then add-ons button and disable your extensions one by one until you find the troublemaker.

    Also, try to update to Firefox 11, it has several bug fixes that might make life easier here.

    Just as a few troubleshooting steps base to ensure that we have all the bases covered,
    Run all Windows updates, install all required service packs, etc.

    Update all of your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/.

    Download and install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full scan. http://www.malwarebytes.org/. This check allows that there is no virus on your computer, causing problems. You can uninstall this program after having cleaned the infections.

  • Firefox for Android only displays the desktop version of gmail rather than mobile.

    Android only question.

    I prefer to access gmail via a browser rather than the gmail app. Tests of other browsers on Android (Chrome and Dolphin) I see that they display a mobile-specific version of the gmail Web site.

    Firefox for Android only displays the version of office on my Nexus 7 (5.1 runs Android 2012) - and therefore more difficult to read and use. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Well, Yes, it's that Word annoying Tablet.

    What I'm going to describe is difficult to type, so I hope that you can open this page on your tablet.

    Select (0) and copy the following text on your Tablet if possible to avoid the excesses of type:

    general.useragent.override.mail.google.com Android; Tablet;#Android; Mobile;
    

    The forum linkifies this first part, but it is not supposed to be a link.

    (1) open a new tab to Subject: config (type about: config the Awesomebar and hit the arrow go or tap Enter).

    You can bookmark it for easy future access.

    (2) in the search box, type agen and make a pause while Firefox filter list

    (3) scroll down to the bottom and look for a preference named general.useragent.site_specific_overrides and confirm that it has its default value true. If it is set to false, press the reset button for it back to true.

    (4) scroll back up and press the big button "+" to the left of the search box to add a new parameter

    (A) the name of the preference must be general.useragent.override.google. com (for all Google sites) general.useragent.override.mail.google. com (for Gmail only)

    If you type this, beware of the correction automatic insertion of spaces and be sure to remove those.

    If paste, remove the part after that.

    (B) on the right side, type Boolean and in the popup, change it to a String

    (C) the value of the preference should be Android; Tablet; #Android; Mobile; -in other words, substituting Mobile for Tablet.

    If you type, pay attention to the excess spaces.

    If gluing, remove the preference name and extra space before this part.

    (D) then click on create

    If you open https://mail.google.com/ must now use the mobile layout.

    Success?

    Edit: To clarify the name of preference options.

  • NEITHER Spy works only in the development environment?

    NEITHER Spy works on LabView (executables) stand-alone applications deployed (using VISA vi), or NI Spy works only in the development environment? It might be useful for debugging of deployed applications.

    If the answer is Yes (which I doubt), OR would have to create an installer for it since currently it is no longer available as an add-on.

    Thank you

    Ed

    Edjsch,

    You can install VISA as a standalone w/o LabVIEW. Spy is not a stand-alone installer because it does nothing in itself. That's why we always package it with a driver or application software.

  • With HP8600 I put the Option for tray 2, but it will pull only from the Tray1

    Envelopes of printer with HP8600 I put the Option for tray 2, but it will pull only from the Tray1.

    Hello finfannc,

    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    I see that you are having problems with printing envelopes from tray #2.

    Just to let you know, the printer will only print envelopes of Lac #1.  Here is the link to the User Guide that will show you what all is supported and what bins what to do. For envelope printing, go to page #165-167 media support and sizes of envelope.

    Thanks for your time.

    See you soon,.

    Hi amireos,

    Yes, you can create your workflow where you can keep all your images on the external hard drive and the Lightroom catalog file as well.

    If you start with Lightroom and then use the Destination location as external hard drive when you import your image of the external source such as a camera or SD.

    If you already have your Images on the Mac HD drive, then play all your Image on the external hard drive first and then import images directly from there.

    Finally, you can change the location of the Lightroom Catalog as well.

    Default location: folder on the Mac Drive HD, there is folder called Lightroom that you can move on the external drive too (however catalog Lightroom can't memory space as its only import previews of the images is not the real image and full)

    Once you move the file catalog Lightroom external hard disk, then you need to browse the catalog file when you launch Lightroom only once.

    See thread: LR catalog moving on external hard drive

    Let us know if it helps.

    Kind regards
