• Cannot change the updates of Windows Vista and Norton 360

  I can't change my settings to Windows Update under Vista. I am the administrator and the only user on the computer.

• Cannot change the Google search bar

  In Safari, I go to Google.com and do a google search. So far so good.

  Now, on the search results page, I try to edit the search in the Google search bar and nothing happens - the Google search bar is totally insensitive. To do another search, I use the address bar in Safari or reload google.com.

  I have deleted history, deleted all the data of the Web site, disconnected plugins and extensions, deleted the cache via the menu Developer. I used 3 CleanMyMac to clear and reset everything.  I can't solve the problem.

  Safari 9.0.2 (11601.3.9)

  OS X El Capitan 10.11.2

  Mac Mini (late 2014)

  A

  Please see below:

  'CleanMyMac' is a scam and a frequent cause of instability and poor performance. Depending on which version you have, the developer's instructions may not completely uninstall. Please follow these instructions, then do as below.

  Please, back up all data before proceeding.

  Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select this option:

  /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent.plist

  Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

  Services ▹ reveal in Finder (or just to reveal)

  the contextual menu.*, a file can open with a selected item. If so, move the selected item to the trash. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

  Repeat with this line:

  /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent

  Restart the computer and empty the trash.

  You may also delete one or more of these elements in the same way:

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac.helperTool.plist

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac.volumeWatcher.plist

  ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac3.Scheduler.plist

  Never install "CleanMyMac" or something like that.

  * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

  Go ▹ go to the folder...

  from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

• Microsoft Movie Maker - cannot change the length of each clip.

  Cannot change the length of each clip on Microsoft Movie Maker.

  I clicked on 'tools', then 'options' in Microsoft Movie Maker after importing my media and organize my clips as the way I would like it. When I then click on the "Advanced" tab, image duration shows only 5 seconds with the transition period only 1.25 seconds, which is the default setting and that is also what I want. However, when I play my project in Movie Maker, it accelerates through each clip. I also noticed that when I press the title of 'Clip' in my headings at the top left and then click on 'Properties', the duration of each clip shows that only 00:02 seconds. Which is why my speed clips too quickly.

  I would have thought that setting my time of duration in the Tools section would then set in the Clips section, but this is obniously does not. I don't understand why everyone would show differently and wonder if you can help me to slow down the speed that my movie is playing.

  Thank you

  ================================
  The change of setting to: Tools / Options /.
  Advanced... tab applies only to the added clips
  to the timeline * after * you change the setting.

  If you switch to view "Storyboard" and select
  all of the clips as a batch (select one and the type...
  CTRL + A)... you can add the 'Speed Up, Double.
  or "Slow down, half" effect of changing the
  duration. Simply select all clips / right click
  the effect on the menu... Choose...
  Add to storyboard table.

  'Speed Up, Double' cuts the duration of half.

  "Slow Down, half ' double life.

  These effects can be added up to six times.

  If you need finer adjustment...
  the info may be useful:

  You can change the duration for each clip
  manually. Move your pointer autour the
  edge of an element until you see a double red
  arrow. Now, drag the double red arrow...
  you will see if show a ToolTip displays the duration
  train to change.

  Or... just to redo the project after changing
  the long-term: Tools / Options / Advanced
  tab.

• Cannot change the captions

  I have a form that was created by printing a worksheet excel to PDF, then we are changing in Livecycle ES - the form fields have been added.   However, we cannot change the captions for a group of radio buttons and options as insert text appear grayed out in the menu.   Is it just something weird about it because of how it was created?

  Sorry, I misunderstand the question.  When you import a PDF file (created from Word, Excel or any other application), you are presented with a dialog box that gives you two options... 'Create an interactive form with fixed pages' or 'create an interactive form with a fluid layout.  If you select the option 'fixed pages', a form is created where all the master key is represented as an image and cannot be changed, also, only form 'interactive' objects can be added to the form, such as fields, radio buttons, list boxes etc..  As you have noticed, the "non-interactive" objects like "static text", and "rectangles" are disabled.  In addition, the non-interactive properties such as captions (static text) are also disabled.  LC Designer is bahaving as expected, it is supposed to give the form designer a very accurate copy of the presentation of the original document.

  If you import a PDF file and select 'Create an interactive form with a fluid layout', the 'standard' of the original PDF is editable and properties of objects, and non-interactive form Explorer (legends, etc.) will be available.

  Concerning

  Steve
