Adobe Reader I have a black square instead of the mouse pointer.

• Boots system to black screen with only the mouse pointer, ChkDsk finds the same mistakes every time, but does not drive.

  My system has the latest updates installed, but it has not restarted when a power failure occurred.  System ran file check at startup and started to only black screen with the mouse.  Sticky Keys dialog box and file sharing is just what works.  System Restore find restore points, but fails with errors.  System repair find anything wrong.  ChkDsk /f and / r always produce the same result with about 30 files deleted from the index, and then these same files recovered orphans.

  I cloned the drive to another and get the same results.

  All modes of security also start to black screen.  CTRL-ALT-DELETE, CTRL-SHIFT-ESC, WIN-E, etc.  do not work.  Only 5xSHIFT brings a dialog of the keys sticky.

  Via a command prompt I can read and write files & folders on the boot partition as if nothing is wrong.  Same thing with shared files on the network.

  I asked about this on the forum to update and have no solutions.  Could someone please help?

  Thanks in advance.

  BestPartyBand,
  I'm sorry to hear that none of the solutions that we offered was able to solve your problem.  I know how very it can be frustrating to have to start all over again with a clean system, especially with the amount of work you have put in get your network configuration.  I have not found anything that could solve your problem without reformatting, unfortunately.  I didn't want to point to one of the articles I sent you a link to (when you start a Windows Vista-based computer, the system may stop responding (hang) at a black screen.)
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/946532 this article talks about the corruption of system files in the $Txf directory. This corruption causes a situation of deadlock between the Transactional NTFS (TxF) and the automatic verification process.  I think that is what has happened on your drive hard when the crash occurred.  Here is a good article about this in detail that you might find interesting technically: transactional Ntfs and loss of data
  http://www.articlesbase.com/data-recovery-articles/Transactional-NTFS-and-data-loss-778234.html

  I hope that it works for you, let us know if we can help you.
  Thank you

• Black screen with only the mouse pointer

  I just bought a Toshiba with Windows 7 laptop. Black screen with the mouse cursor after a few minutes of no use.  It seems to be the activity of the laptop but nothing happens even with a Control Alt Delete. I noticed after like 20 minutes, the windows screen comes back on.  Any ideas to solve this problem.

  Hello

  Since there seems to be a fairly new computer, you should check with the seller and the support from Toshiba
  for possible replacement and/or warranty repairs. Remember that do you more that they can
  It's something that you don't.

  Check with Toshiba support, their books online and the drivers and their known forums
  questions.

  You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer or an external hard drive enclosure, then
  saving them. Do this using several methods to redundantly. Of course, a real computer
  Shop or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel
  -Double click - Driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - device Manager - map - graph
  then right click on the device and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
  is CTRL + ALT + DEL and the processes tab find EXPLORER.exe and END PROCESS on it.
  then on the tab Applications - lower right - new task - the type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is
  accessible by tapping F8 as you start several times.

  Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all hotfix is usually a hit or miss
  base. That there is no information on a black screen as there is just a blue screen
  adds to the difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect.
  You can try a google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these
  cover a wide field of efforts.

  Here's a video of one of them.

• How can I make Adobe Reader 9 open to incoming PDFs instead of Acrobat 5.0?

  How can I make Adobe Reader 9 open to incoming PDFs instead of Acrobat 5.0?

  Hello

  Assuming you have Reader 9.3.4 already installed on your machine, you can try the following to make demand opening of default PDF Reader 9.3.4:

  1. right click on any PDF on your system, and then click the option 'Open with' from the context menu that appears. In case you get another submenu, click on program selected in this menu. (Where you don't see 'Open with' option, then hold down the SHIFT key and right-click on the file)

  2. click on the Browse button in the dialog box that appears, select Reader 9. Make sure you check the box "always use the selected program to open this type of file"

  3. click on OK.

  This will make Adobe Reader 9 as the default viewer for all PDF files on your system.

  So let's say that the quantity field is called 'Quantity' and the total field is called 'Total '.

  You can use this code as the calculation for Total custom script:

  var quantity = Number(this.getField("Quantity").value);
  if (quantity<=1) event.value = quantity*11;
  else event.value = 11 + (quantity-1)*9;

• All programs have an extension .lnk instead of the extension which actually would allow me to open the program itself.

  Original title: Start Menu, all programs

  I don't know how but my Start menu, all programs have an extension .lnk instead of the extension which actually would allow me to open the program itself.  Don't know how it happened but I have been looking for a solution for more than a year now, and I'm not about to find an answer.  Don't know what to short to bring it to Best Buy and watch it with a geek.  Can someone point me in the right direction and tell me how to get the menu start original, all programs back to the way they should be?  Thank you

  The start menu (including all the components of the menu in all programs) are generally shortened. LNK files. It is hard to tell from your description, but you can experience a bad file association with the. LNK shortcuts. Take a look at the following article of the local and my solution to see if it fits your situation.

  Hi sgodwin2468,

  Make sure that Acrobat Reader DC is updated Release Notes | Adobe Acrobat, Reader.

  If the problem persists, try the solution below.

  The default "save under" Acrobat/Reader DC dialog box is different from the dialogue box you had in earlier versions of Acrobat/Reader, it also allows you to record in the clouds and previous locations that you saved the files. It is possible that when Acrobat/Reader tries to connect to the 'cloud', it runs into problems. You can try to disable this feature to see if this brings your backup in the back of the box: open Acrobat Preferences, then go to the "General" category and uncheck "show the online storage when you save files:
