How can I connect?

Hi Annaba-m,

Try the following.

Step 1: Try to start in safe mode. Check if you can login as administrator.

Step 2: If you are able to connect then try to change the password. Restart the computer in normal mode to see if you can connect.

  • Your last update won't let me connect on Yahoo Messenger. No problem with IE. How can I fix it? I don't like the updates that are causing problems. If it isn't broken don't fix it

    I am unable to use Yahoo Messenger when connected to Firefox. Mail works but not the Messenger. I received notice of message, but when I try to open the message and answer, nothing happens. Or to start a conversation. I tried to use IE and all Yahoo services work fine, so the problem is with your last update. I want to reinstall the previous version. You should not automatically updated versions if problems of this kind will happen. Please respond with a fix.

    A light 'work around' If you know what the contact to discuss with you...

    Keep a tab of discussion open for them. If there is already a tab open, chat works very well.

    When you click on their name, two tabs will appear - one showing a constant loading "dial". Close that one. Then just keep the other open tab.

    I know it's not practical if you have many contacts who chat with you, but if you have just a couple, it's at least a possibility to discuss with them by E-mail.

    Does anyone have a solution?

    Kind regards

    Thanks Keith,

    I just found the msvcr80.dll missing files + msvcr100.dll the LR4.

    Copy / paste it into the same directory of the LR5.

    Now the problem is solved.

  • forgot my password for the administrative account.i did not a password reset disk. AlSi o do not have a disk to recover. How can I reset my password or put them on the administrative account? __

    I don't remember what my password for the administrative account.i did not a password reset disk.  AlSi o do not have a disk to recover. How can I reset my password or put on the administrative account?

    If you have forgotten your password, if you have another user who has administrative privileges account you can log in to that account and change the password of your account of origin of the user accounts applet in Control Panel. If you do not have another account like this set upwards or that you do not have the password which you will need to log on to the built-in Administrator account. In XP Home, start the computer in Mode safe. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. This will put you in the right menu. Navigate using your arrow up; the mouse does not work here. Once in safe mode, you will see the normally hidden administrator account. The default password is white.

    In XP Pro, you don't need to go to Safe Mode. In the home screen, do Ctrl-Alt-Del twice to get the classic Windows logon box. Type in "Administrator" and the password that you assigned when you set up Windows.

    If you reset the password of the account administrator integrated into house or have Pro and don't remember the password, use NTpasswd to change the password of the built-in to a white administrator account. Download the bootable CD .iso image file, burn with third-party burning software such as free ImgBurn , Nero or Roxio. Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Start with the media that you have created. You need to maybe change the boot order in the BIOS or obtain a menu of boot command temporary with the pressure of a special key. NTpasswd will run. Follow the instructions carefully.

    http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/

    Then, go to the user accounts applet in Control Panel and set passwords that you remember and other changes. WRITE THE PASSWORDS DOWN AND PUT THEM SOMEWHERE YOU WON'T LOSE THEM.

  • Vista Home Premium product key is not accepted after the repair, in which the computer was stripped of the same Windows software

    When my ET1161-07 came back from repair, it was so empty of software that even my "copy of Windows is not genuine", as it appears in the lower right. Due to this fact, I have no protection, either. I followed the instructions on the screen to type in the product key code that I found on the sticker on the casing of the machine (I had him bought at Costco, with preinstalled Vista Edition Home Premium, with no backup disk included), but the box would not accept even the next character to come at some point, to Midway. As a result, my window of Activation of Windows said I typed in the product key is not valid for activation, and I have to either buy a new online, or type a different product key or contact Dell to help solve this problem. Could you please help me with this? Fortunately, Istvan

    Hello

    First thing I would do is to take this computer to the place/person fixing it and demand that they fix it properly.

    We don't know where they got the Vista disk/license since they were installed.

    See you soon.

    I have two user accounts, now I forgot the password of an account with administrative privileges, how can I reset or remove this password

    I have two user accounts, now I forgot the password of an account with administrative privileges, how can I reset or remove this password

    There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
    • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
    • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have taken the time to create such a key file).
    • Use the password indicator (works only if you have created a hint and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)
    After solving this problem, plan in advance and create, test and document an alternative admin account, same as you have a spare House key.

    Hi vijaysampath, please make sure first that the date, time, and time zone are set correctly on your system. If this does not solve the problem (or it is already set correctly), a possible solution depends on different factors:

    • What is the error code indicated under Technical Details on the error page?

    in case the error code is equal to sec_error_unknown_issuer, please try to add an exception on the bottom of the error page to verify the certificate, as shown on the attached screenshot:

    • What information about the issuer of the certificate contain?

    Please take these two pieces of information. Thank you!
