So yes, I would really like to go back to XP

There are No. free installation for XP instead using Vista, unless you meet the following criteria:

    The only way to install an ipad app is through the app store.  PC or Mac software does not run on the ipad.  Search in the contacts link at the bottom right of this page.  Give apple a call.

    I guess is the icon for pages in icloud for storing documents pages.  At the same time, apple had a cloud based pages.  Not sure what happened to her.

  • Can I downgrade Tecra S2 for Win2000?

    I recently bought a brand new Tecra S2 with preinstalled on WinXP. I tried it downgrade to Windows 2000, but the installer crashes when I press ENTER to start the installation. It is the same with Win98. Did anyone of you knows how to pass the operating system to a lower on Tecra S2? WinXP does not accept some of my software that I have to perform my work as a translator and I really don't like this version of the OS. Is downgrade at all possible for this laptop? Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi sunny

    The newer units are created to be up-to-date. With other words, it means that this device must be able to deal with the new hardware and software configuration. Your device is tested to work correctly with Windows XP. As you know all the drivers and tools are suitable for this OS.

    If you want to install an older operating system you may have problems because it is not possible to find the proper drivers and tools for this model of laptop. The only thing you can do is search for the drivers on the net and try to find the right on the site of producer of material.

    In my opinion, it is very unfortunate to install some OS like Win98 on this pretty portable. ;)

  • where can I change the password for free wifi on Acer 10th switch

    I use a public wifi who changes his password every month. I connected it with my Acer Switch 10 E for the first time last month (a week ago) and I was asked for the password. Now, it's a new month and I am not prompted for the password and I can't find a place to change the stored password. I can still access my own wifi and wifi to work who have correct stored passwords.

    I tried to select options wifi and it allows not sharing and sharing. When I'm in the range of wifi and run diagnostics it either tells me that the computer cannot detect the network hardware - that can't be true because I can connect at home - or the wifi connection is set to manual, which is not the issue because if it is set to manual or automatic He asks me the password.

    If I select the show the network connections and the State in the internetb Control Panel, I see the wifi connection but it doesn't have a name, when I right click on the wifi connection, it does not give me a Connections tab where I could change the password. If I select Change card options it is the same story. Other people around me are connected so I know that's not the router. If I try to add a new connection it tells me it cannot detect network hardware.

    I should be able to make the details screen connection display and change the password, but I can't seem to find it. Can anyone help?

    Thanks for the suggestion, but again, this access to the security for any unconnected network tab is precisely what I was not able to do. The problem is: when not connected, no wifi connection appear in the list of wifi-State; only an icon for the device software. If I right click on that window opebned upward has shown me the properties of the driver etc., not on the network. He had no security, and no properties 'Wireless' don't link.  10 Windows, you need to get separately to the networks are not connected. Now, I found the item "manage known networks." It was much further down the page than I expected from images that I had seen, that showed above the element change adapter settings. Then I was able to forget the network and he asked me for a password. Just deselect "automatically connect" does not ask me the password. Connect automatically seems to be defined as a sort of default.

    Thanks anyway.

  • How can I fix "NTLDR is missing" for free

    I get the message "NTLDR is missing". Where can I download this fix for free?

    If you have a genuine bootable CD install XP, you can get the file from there.

    Given that most of the people have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, if you need an idea and a method to replace then drop without the genuine XP bootable installation CD.

    If you do not have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, I would locate a replacement on a working system file or download it, copy it to a USB device or a diskette and then just use the Recovery Console to replace the missing file and be on your way.

    I would also recommend that you use the Recovery Console to run chkdsk /r on your system.

    You can then copy the missing ntldr file from a functional system or download it on my SkyDrive:

    http://CID-6a7e789cab1d6f39.Office.live.com/Browse.aspx/.documents?UC=1

    Place the file ntldr on a USB device or the floppy drive, boot your system on a CD from Recovery Console or a Hiren boot CD you can do (no XP media required for either) and simply copy the file missing to your system and still be on your way.

    Everything is free.

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a CD/DVD drive work?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

    I have an area 51 R2, and I do a clean install. I have the DVD of resource and the latest drivers from the site but my desktop came with CyberLink Media Suite. In fact, I like the software and tried to reinstall it.

    Hello

    This program came pre-installed in your system, you should be able to download the software from your Dell account, in the option of software installed at the factory . Try to use IE when you connect to your Dell account, look for the factory-installed software option and he will have to register your PC before registration has the software first. When you save your system, be sure to allow all the pop ups for this page because you have to click allow on a window popup that appears, then it can continue recording.

    Hello, Msquared23!

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support!  I see you are trying to download the app to Pages on your new iPad mini 4.  I use iWork apps on my iPad all the time, so I can see why you would want to get it for yourself!  I'd be happy to help you.

    According to this document, it appears that these applications are free on the new iOS devices: get Apple apps for free on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    As you see a price there instead of a 'Get' button, we will have to get you in touch with one of our counsellors in the iTunes Store, so they can focus on this with you.  Click on this link to reach:

    Contact the Apple Support - when you get there, click on "iTunes and Apple Music" and then "iTunes Store".
