Can't change the theme on the desktop!
I used several beautiful scenes on my desk for years without problems. Suddenly he is stuck on a terrible picture of a barren desert and will not let me select ANY group of scene or slide show no matter what I do. I turned off my computer, tried the plain Windows theme, etc, but nothing like this ugly picture! What do you suggest me then? It's a laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate edition.

I have five-point-something Lightroom thing set up on a laptop and a desktop Apple computer. Both will import images from a CD or a DVD (I have my film scanned and the images on a disk). I can't change the images on the Mac, but I can edit images on the PC. What is going on? Also, when I try to export edited disk images, where are they going? I can't find them on my hard drive. Thank you!
Your entire development is off? You may be able to disconnect and reconnect. You can check this thread for more suggestions:
I was expecting an error message indicating that the development module is disabled, however. If this isn't what you're talking about, please show us a screenshot of the 'dark' buttons

How can I change the size of the desktop icons
PC HP TouchSmart 520
Windows 7 64 bit
I can't change the size of the icons by right-clicking on the desktop. There is no 'view' to change. I have four items that appear; Graffiti, background, settings and Office Windows that changes the appearance of the office and did not have the carousel.
It sounds like what you have on your screen is HP Magic Canvas and not Windows Desktop.
Then, right click and select "Desktop Windows" to return to the real desktop. Then, if you want you can right click again and resize stuff.

Select Customize
Select display (left index finger)
Under change only the size of text, select icon
You can also check the option for "BOLD"
Do not forget to click on apply when finished
Because desktop wallpaper images have different colors, it is easy for the colors of unreadable fonts if they are on top of the same color in a background image to display. For example, a black font on top a dark part of the background image or a white font on a white part of a background image.
The desktop icon fonts are dynamic and show white on dark background and change in white with a shadow effect black on a light background.

My color, setting for LR and PS is ProPhoto RGB. If I want to export my photos and place them on OneDrive or watch on TV of the photo, can I change the color setting in sRGB?
In general, I would recommend sRGB, if images must be consulted on the screens of TV or PC monitors. sRGB is usually the universal profile for sharing photos on the web. If you want to share your images on a single disc, most of the people will see their best, without changes in color, with an sRGB profile.
So it really depends on your goal. You use a player for sharing and viewing on backup and storage devices.
