• I forgot the password and user name for windows xp

  I accidentally locked my computer and now it asks username and password (windows xp). Unfortunately I forgot the two. Is it possible to reset it?

  If you have forgotten your password, if you have another user who has administrative privileges account you can log in to that account and change the password of your account of origin of the user accounts applet in Control Panel. If you do not have another account like this set upwards or that you do not have the password which you will need to log on to the built-in Administrator account. In XP Home, start the computer in Mode safe. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. This will put you in the right menu. Navigate using your arrow up; the mouse does not work here. Once in safe mode, you will see the normally hidden administrator account. The default password is white.

  In XP Pro, you don't need to go to Safe Mode. In the home screen, do Ctrl-Alt-Del twice to get the classic Windows logon box. Type in "Administrator" and the password that you assigned when you set up Windows.

  If you have XP Pro or Media Center and have been using the account administrator for your regular work so it is the only user account on the system, there are ways to change the password for this account to a white. Microsoft does not allow us to tell how, in these forums. Their House, their rules. Use Google or ask a technician to the local computer (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place).

• The names of COD for separate free and full versions?

  App smartphone with the free and full (paid) version, both are distributed as different applications. How to name the COD files?

  (1) MyAppFree.cod and MyAppFull.cod

  (2) MyApp.cod (free is version 1.0.1 and complete is the 2.0.1 version)

  In the case of 1) if the user install the free version and then buy the full version, it will be two icons of the same application. Moreover, I have to change the package names if there PersistentObjects it would cause a conflict of app.

  Case 2) if the user purchases the full version to overwrite the free version (it comes will count as an upgrade, given that COD names are the same, and provider is the same)

  Case 2) in theory is better, but given my bitter experience AppWorld I don't know how it works in reality.

  Any ideas?

  It's very simple, really.

  Have the paid version to check the presence of the free or trial... He sends immediately a stop signal to the "lower" version (if it has a background process) and mark it for deletion at the next reset.

  The trial or free version also checks for the presence of the paid version, turns off and converts its opening screen a message saying: thank you for buying the paid version and this app will be gone when you reset.  Then, it is marked for deletion.

  I use this method for a long time, and it works.

  Also, you need not the names of different package whenever it is another name of COD, not only because the store persistent... it will give an error of duplicate class definition and no applications will not work.

  You can use a single KEY for both if you use purchase app or the license keys with try & buy, but it doesn't always work, you get ppl complain they bought it and it has expired.

• Just bought a Nikon d750 and confused about adobe LR4 and PS6 support for RAW files. I have 8.7 DNG, but I was wondering if LR and PS will import direct soon thanks for all the tips

  Just bought a Nikon d750 and confused about adobe LR4 and PS6 support for RAW files. I have 8.7 DNG, but I was wondering if LR and PS will import direct soon thanks for all the tips

  Support for the Nikon D750 was introduced in the last version of LR 5.7 and ACR 8.7 Novemder 18 2014.

  New updates for LR 4 were arrested when LR 5 was released on June 9, 2013. No other updates of bug fixes and new camera support.

  Nada, LR 4 will never support Nikon D750. The Nikon D750 was introduced on the market in September 2014 some 15 months after further development of LR 4 was arrested.

  You can use the Adobe DNG (free download for packing) program to convert your Nikon D750 Nef (raw) files in Adobe's DNG format which will allow you to import those into LR 4. This is the crutch provided by Adobe to allow the processing of raw files with versions out-of-date LR and ACR.

  You can also update the ACR for PS CS6 version 8.7 plugin that can also work with the raw files of the D750. For direct support in Lightroom, you will need to upgrade (paying) to version 5.7.

• Can I use the full Version of Windows 7 that I would use the edition update for Windows XP?

  Can I use the full Version of Windows 7 to upgrade Windows XP with a custom installation, as I would with Windows 7 Upgrade Edition if I want? (If I decided that I would rather clean the entire hard drive so I can use the full Version of Windows 7 without the need of Windows XP or Vista)

  To upgrade your Windows XP computer to Windows 7, you will need to select custom during installation of Windows 7. A custom installation keeps your programs, files or settings. It is sometimes called a 'clean' for this reason installation.

• Error7 message about the signature unidentified, the upgrade and installation of iTunes 10.5 for Windows Vista.

  Original title: error upgrading and installation of iTunes 10.5 for Windows 6.

  I tried all kinds of ways to solve this problem, but I can't seem to find a solution. This all started when I tried to update my iTunes to version 10.5. Then came the error message 7 on unidentified signature etc. I could not even run my iTunes more then. I started download iTunes again to repair and it just doesn't work. I don't have problems with the installation of my iTunes for the first time a year ago and upgraded whenever I allow it.

  All other methods I tried to correct the error includes:
  • Uninstall iTunes completely and everything that it supports the programs and files (Quicktime, supporter of Mobile, Hello, Safari etc.)
  • Download Quicktime separately after you have uninstalled it as suggested by other users in some forum.
  • Update the frame Microsot.NET as suggested by the Apple Support site.

  • Manually started the installation of such Windows program suggested by one of the answers on this site:

    a. click the Start button, and then type services.msc in the start search box and press ENTER.
    b. Locate the Windows Installer service.
    c. check that the status is started. If the condition column is empty,
    d. right-click on Windows Installer, and then select start.
    e. If you get error trying to force start the Windows Installer service, then try to change the Startup Type to automatic.
    f. restart the computer.

    I have tried for at least 10 times and I have not yet set and am frustrated. Would be really grateful a solution to this soon.

    Windows Version: Windows Vista Home Premium - Version 6.0 (build 6002: Servie Pack 2).

    Thank you.

• I prefer SEPARATE (for multiple open documents) instead of tedious proceedings hover over the icon and then choose the one I want.

  Notepad or WORD or EXCEL, Lotus SAMETIME, I prefer SEPARATE (for multiple open documents) instead of tedious proceedings hover over the icon and then choose the one I want.  I can't figure out how to change that, and it's a boring true change to XP. Does anyone know how to do this?

  Go to the Start menu button, right-click on it, select Properties, click the task bar .

  Click the drop-down list buttons Taskbar & select never combine.

  That's all.  You should now see an entry of the separate taskbar for each open file on your PC.
