  Hey monkeymanknitting

  1st thing is to see if it is compatible with vista

  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-Vista/

  If it's trying to do a right-click on the setup.exe then run as administrator

  If this is not vista compatible read below

• greetings workshop deluxe installation

  I recently got my laptop fixed & I tried to reinstall the deluxe Greetings Workshop, but I get a message that says:

  "Greetings Workshop does not work because one of its components is missing.  Restart your computer and re-run the Setup program so that the missing piece can be localized.

  I tried that & still nothing.  I have Vista on the laptop.  Some help would be appreciated to solve this.  Thank you.

  Windows Vista Compatibility Center

  First thing to do is to check its Vista compatibility at the link above, and if not to see what patches/solutions are available from its manufacturer...

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-compatibility-mode/

  If this is not Vista compatible, read the info on the link above.
  It works for some programs, but not all.

  This applies to software programs, NOT hardware drivers.

  If it's Vista compatible > uninstall it > Re-download/save to your desktop > right click on setup.exe O run as admin.

  If the above does not resolve the problem, try the Vista programs Forum:

• MICROSOFT GREETINGS WORKSHOP PROBLEM

  I installed Microsoft Greetings Workshop of and first CD of Windows 98 on my Toshiba Satellite 755 laptop running Windows 7 64-bit.  I am able to create maps and print using Greetings Workshop.  Unfortunately, I can't send e-mail Greetings Workshop cards.  I get error messages saying that it is too big.  How can I transfer the map from Greetings Workshop to my Image to compress for emailing software?  Is there another way I can email these cards directly from Greetings Workshop?

  Depends on exactly what kind of file that the program creates as to if you can send this file as an attachment which can be read on another PC.

  As it is, I suspect you would need to print the file then print scan using your scanner.

  You are lucky, the program installed at all and can be used

• Print Greetings Workshop

  My Greetings Workshop works very well.  I now have a new printer, and when I was ready to print a map program got me a one-time test. When I printed the page outside my card, I made the mistake of telling the program what it printed perfectly and then I realized that it printed on the left side of the page instead of the right.  Now it won't let me come back to fix this error.  I tried making a new map, but have the same problem.  How can I fix it?

  You must ask the developer to program that the problem has nothing to do with the operating system.

  Hello crlarson,

  Please try the link here, I just tested, and it's a good link: (I think that there is a space in the word "windows" that should not be there)
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

  You can try the compatibility mode on the older programs.

  If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

  Use the following steps:
  (1) right click on the program
  2) click Properties
  3) click on the Compatibility tab
  (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows XP or other system that the program has been run successfully operating.

  Please let us know if that helps with your question.

  Sincerely,

• hp2540 Windows XP SP3

  Just installed printer - have WinXP SP3. Some programs to print fine, but older programs that were now no problem to my HP4200 error printing. A very old (Microsoft Greetings Workshop) gives "has encountered a problem and needs to close." Another says 'Host of the Pipeline filter Print' failed.

  Both programs will print to AdobeAcrobat - and then to the printer - a workaround is therefore possible.

  Pointers to a solution would be appreciated.

  The only other driver I can think to use is the 990c or the Deskjet 9800 printer driver. You can go through the add a printer in printers and faxes to manually select the driver for the printer to use.

  This guide should provide a good market well: to add a printer attached to your computer.

• alternatives to LogMeIn Pro for remote access?

  Greetings.  Currently, we have systems in the United States, Switzerland and the Mexico that I supported via remote access using LogMeIn Pro.  We paid for a subscription before free LMI Pro has been abandoned even to appreciate the characteristics of LMI Pro.  But as LMI has eliminated this free service, it seems their subscription rate more than doubled each year.  We currently need remote access to 3 Macs and 2 units of Windows (ew).

  Last year, we paid $174. for the annual subscription in support of these 5 systems.  I just checked on the price of renewal and it shows $349.00 for renewal.  This is getting too expensive!

  Last year, I invested in ARD to support my mother MacBook and the MacBook from an old friend, rather than pay LMI for a subscription in support of these systems.  ARD was a good alternative for these systems, but it is not a realistic alternative to remote systems for charity I help support.  Partly because of the PC, also because what it requires port forwarding in the router and finally because I have to be at my computer to use ARD to access those other systems.  LMI offers the possibility to access systems through an iOS app and can be used by other members of the team of charity, anywhere in the world everyone is physically located.  That's why we have maintained the LMI Pro subscriptions for a number of years.

  But with the perennial increase rate of LMI ridiculous (I think they can take their pricing of Obamacare), I'm on my eternal quest for an alternative to remote access.

  Can anyone offer advice?

  Thank you very much for your review,
