  • Can not stop the Windows Help and Support screen to appear several times

    I tried to us Windows Defender and features WindowTurn on or off programs in vain to stop the Windows Help and Support screen to appear several times offering assistance on everything that I've just selected if it is a selection of function or the word internet. The copy of Vista came with my new Dell laptop. I have another laptop HP with Vista but do not have to go through this on this subject.

    Advice to address this very frustrating situation would be appreciated.

    Hi Maree33,

    Let's run Windows Update and make sure that you have all the latest patches and service packs loaded.  In Internet Explorer click Tools then Windows Update and follow the instructions.

    You can also give a quick call Dell and see if this is a common problem with their OEM version.

    Please let us know the results.

  • Failed to load Photoshop. "Login required" appears several times.

    I am unable to run Adobe Photoshop CC 2015 on Mac. The "Login required" dialog appears several times. I click 'Sign In', then need me to the next window that says 'thank you. Creative cloud is now allowed for xxxxx@xxxxxxx. Click on continue enjoying the software. I click on 'Continue', then the dialog box disappears, and 5 seconds later, he reappeared at the beginning.

    I think that this situation could have arisen because I inherited a Mac of a former member of staff. I think that creative cloud has been logged into his account when I used it all first. I recently deleted his account from the Mac, and I think that this might have caused problems. I have an account of myself, and according to Creative Cloud Manager, I am logged in under this account.

    I tried to get this working nothing helps things:

    Upgrade Photoshop for CC 2015 (previously CC 2014)

    Uninstalled all adobe & cloud applications creative and reinstalled from scratch.

  • Windows Vista won't allow me to open my files in its own window

    I can't get Windows Vista change to allow me to open my files in their own windows. I was not able to do this since I bought this computer a few months ago. I thought I did something wrong, but I follow the directions to the T and it continues to open only the folders in the same window.  Y at - it something I'm doing wrong? I follow the directions for help and check open in its own window and yet it acts as if I do not change it... I apply and ok and press to apply to all the files and still nothing.

    I don't know what are the instructions you followed, so here is a series of instructions on opening the windows, including how open each instance in its separate window: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/91587-open-folder-same-separate-new-window.html.  Read full article and follow ALL these instructions (there are parts you include in your post that are important to make it work - but then again you probably do not understand everything).

    In the meantime, to open a specific folder in a new window, you can right click on the file and click on open rather than explore.  This will open the folder in a new window.  It's an extra step, but it is a workaround until you find the answer (if the above did not answer it).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Is it possible to add a button that will open an attachment to a specific page in its own window?

    I have two PDFs generated from Framemaker.

    PDF1 is a user's guide.

    PDF2 is a test plan document.

    I want to include the possibility for the reader in PDF2, open the guide of the user to a specific page (topic) if they need to access detailed information about a test item.

    In order to ensure that the PDF2 player has the user's guide, I thought I want to implement an attachment under PDF2 PDF1.

    By browsing the ' net, I found that I can add a 'link' (rectangular clickable area) on PDF2 which, when clicked, will open PDF1 in its own window to a specified page number. GREAT!

    But... what I want to do is to place a * key * on the PDF2 (with a tag) who will perform this task (open PDF1 to a specified page in its own window). However, I am getting lost and does not know how to do this (or if this can be done at all).

    Pointers would be appreciated :-)

    Thank you.

    John

    Then... I thought about it (of course, * after * post the question.) Sigh) and given that the post is now here forever, I thought I should share my solution, for what it's worth.

    In PDF2, with PDF1 included as an attachment:

    1. Rich Media > Add button.
    2. Button to place on the page.
    3. Open the properties of the button (double click or right click > properties).
    4. Click the Actions tab.
    5. Select the Action, select go to a page view.
    6. Click Add...
      (This opens her create go to view dialog box.)
    7. Double-click on the attachment (PDF1).
    8. In the attachment, scroll to the desired page.
    9. In create go to view dialog box, click on connect.
    10. In the Properties dialog box, click Close.
    11. Reopen the Properties dialog box, go to the Actions.
    12. In the action pane, click "Go to a page in another document" (the action that I had set earlier).
    13. Click on change.
    14. In the target Document section, select 'New window' field.
    15. Click OK.
    16. Click Close.
  • How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?

    How to create a window with its own window border other than the local system window border?

    For example, a border: a black line with a width of 1, then a transparent line with a width of 5. Inside, it's the content pane.

    In JavaSE, there seems to be for the JFrame paintComponent() method to realize the effect.

    I can't see what you're trying to do now: it's a little trickier. You need stage.initStyle (StageStyle.TRANSPARENT), and I think you have to imitate the transparent part of the border by the presence of a second vessel inside the root container, properly positioned.

    Something like:

    
    import javafx.application.Application;
    import javafx.application.Platform;
    import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
    import javafx.event.EventHandler;
    import javafx.scene.Scene;
    import javafx.scene.control.Button;
    import javafx.scene.layout.AnchorPane;
    import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
    import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
    import javafx.stage.Stage;
    import javafx.stage.StageStyle;
    
    public class CustomBorderExample extends Application {
    
      @Override
      public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
      AnchorPane root = new AnchorPane();
      root.setStyle("-fx-border-color: black; -fx-border-width: 1px; ");
    
      StackPane mainContainer = new StackPane();
        AnchorPane.setTopAnchor(mainContainer, 5.0);
        AnchorPane.setLeftAnchor(mainContainer, 5.0);
        AnchorPane.setRightAnchor(mainContainer, 5.0);
        AnchorPane.setBottomAnchor(mainContainer, 5.0);
      mainContainer.setStyle("-fx-background-color: aliceblue;");
      root.getChildren().add(mainContainer);
    
      primaryStage.initStyle(StageStyle.TRANSPARENT);
      final Button closeButton = new Button("Close");
        mainContainer.getChildren().add(closeButton);
        closeButton.setOnAction(new EventHandler() {
          @Override
          public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
            Platform.exit();
          }
        });
      primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root,  300, 200, Color.TRANSPARENT));
      primaryStage.show();
      }
    
      public static void main(String[] args) {
      launch(args);
      }

  • Why IE of Windows 7 Home Premium gray on "Set as wallpaper" from the popup menu?

    I want to put the Bing image as the background image on the desktop of my Windows 7 Home Premium edition.

    However, when I gray right click on the image in the context menu the game as background with background save under... and background copy

    So I guess my real question is: How can I activate these entries in the context menu in IE of Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Thank you for your help in this matter.

    Hi Paul-986,

    I should have prefaced my answer with, "this option is not available in IE9, but here is an alternative."  Given that this option is not available in IE9, follow these steps to use bing as a background image:
    1. Go to Bing.com
    2. Press F12
    3. Click on browser Mode and select Internet Explorer 8
    Now, do a right click and set the image as a background.

    Yes.

    You will need to BUY a Vista Ultimate Upgrade product key/license disk

    Windows Anytime Upgrade Vista is no longer available; which you always had to pay anyway...

    Try to buy Vista Ultimate Upgrade online: newegg, amazon, etc.
