Deleted the shortcut which reappeared and cannot be deleted
Hello
I have a shortcut from my old phone that I had deleted, it was to a paired device, after deleting, he re-appeard.
It is 0 bytes in size and gives me this error message when I try to remove it.
Article not found
This item is not found
It is no longer in c:\users\name\desktop\file(no extension) check the location of the elements, and then try again.
I've been on the forums and tried almost everything, pairing the device again and delete, redo my index, disabling windows (msconfig) search, tried a removal of back,.
tried to disable the thumbnails, try chkdsk, tried to create the same file and delete it, there no tab security and none of the properties or attributes can be changed. Please help, it is a serious screw up!
Try using one of the following free products to remove the file. Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php of files (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/) or Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml. These programs often work when normal functions remove Vista not work correctly.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

I have the new Windows 8 and cannot sync my Ipod Nano
I have the new Windows 8 and cannot sync my Ipod Nano is anyone know how to do this?
When I try to sync my ipod nano with my new system of Windows 8, I get a notice of the WDF_violation and the sad face on a blue screen, then my computer needs to be restarted. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled, so I have the latest version on my machine. However, which did not help. ITunes recognizes my nano and gives me an indication that it's sync... but new music I bought is not on the nano, nor is the updates of my specific playlists.
Clearly, it's a matter of Microsoft/Windows as my nano worked perfectly last week when I was on my old computer (Vista).
If this isn't an issue which is, or has been processed by Microsoft, it should be. If my nano and my Windows 8 cannot talk to each other which is not acceptable.

There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and cannot be repaired.
Greetings,
I searched the forums, and this mistake has been examined in the context of how to treat a damaged PDF file.
My question is a little different. The company that I am working has a tool to create what we call "knowledge base articles", i.e. product XML authoring with us help topics. They used this tool from 2008. Files can be attached to a topic. The XML files and attached PDF files is stored in a SQL database. Using the TOC Panel or the search function, relevant topics are retrieved.
When there is an attached PDF, users can view the PDF in the browser or download the file and open it locally.
The knowledge base has been moved from an environment of database SQL 2005 in Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6 for an environment database of SQL 2008 R2 to Windows Server 2008 R2, IIS 7.
Now that we have the following problem: in some subjects the downloaded PDF can't be opened and one error
"There is an error opening this document. The file is damaged and cannot be repaired. "is displayed. The curious is that some PDF files published this error, while others open without a problem. Source file all PDF files open without a hitch before they are downloaded.
Any advice or pointers would be very appreciated.
TIA, Donna
Donna,.
as you have probably read in a lot of discussions on this matter, this error message is usually correct, and the PDF file is damaged. As for how it gets damaged, it's something you need to know by poking around in your system. Here are a few general things that always apply when working with corrupt files:
The first thing I would do is open such a file corrupted in a text editor such as NotePad to see what it actually contains. Any valid PDF file must begin with '% PDF -' followed by a version number. If you don't see that in the first line, then you are not dealing with a PDF file and you know why you do not get the file saved in your knowledge base.
If this string is there, then you know that there a PDF file and the issue is somewhere in this file, and is where it gets much more complex. You will need a good understanding of the PDF specification to parse the file to see what is wrong with him.
If you're lucky, you'll actually have a file of length zero (which means also no PDF header). No valid PDF file cannot be zero bytes long. Your second chance case would you find in fact an HTML error in this file (instead of PDF content), that tells you the reason for the problem (but again, this depends on your system).

After update to a version after FlashPlayer 11.02 when you open a window with flash videos on, next to the Firefox process in the taskbar appears a new process with the Flash Player icon and the video window is placed in the upper left corner and cannot be moved. If there is more a video on this page when you click on that Flash Player icon, you can see a list of all the videos.
Using Flash Player 11.02 this problem does not occur and I used this solution for quite awhile, but now, if I use this version, I get a black window with an error message on security reasons, but if I click on it it plays without any problems. Although in a few Web sites that require Flash, he says he needs at least version 10, but I 11.02 but does not recognize it and ask to be upgraded.
It's very weird because that doesn't happen in my laptop, I have a desktop computer with the exact same windows and version Firefx and this happens. I already tried uninstalling Firefox completely and even remove all plugins and extensions, and the problem persists.
Uninstall Flash player also solves this, but then I wonder to upgrade the Flash player. This problem occurs in Chrome or IExplorer 10:

http://Tinypic.com/view.php?pic=24v2u4l & s = 4
Recent crashes of some multimedia content (this includes the Youtube videos, some flash games and other applications), in collaboration with Firefox are most likely caused by a recent update of Flash 11.3 and/or Real Player browser plugin to malfunction.
To resolve this problem, follow the steps in these articles in the Knowledge Base:
Flash Plugin - maintain and troubleshoot
Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - avoid that it happen
11.3 Flash does not load video in Firefox

I have a PC with windows 7 Home Premium installed. The PC is faulty and cannot be resolved. Can I reinstall the same Windows 7 to a new computer without additional cost? If yes how can I do this? Some people reported issues license keys and it cannot be registered once in a PC.
Thank you
It is the major limitation of the OEM software that it can be installed on a PC. The COA label will confirm whether the license is OEM. A number of elements can be replaced in a PC in the way of repair, but only if exactly the same model of Council can this be exchanged.
Even if you transfer the drive to the new PC would not authenticate because of the change of equipment, and it would be unlikely to to re-authenticate online.
If the label is not OEM and you have a retail package, so it can be transferred.

I have a license of a vector, but the file is damaged and cannot be repaired.
I have a license of a vector of Stock and when I import it into Illustrator says "the file is damaged and cannot be repaired." I need to edit the vector in illustrator and import it into indesign. I log off CC and reconnected I know sometimes that's helped before with images but that did not work. At the same time, I also registered 2 images that work well, but not the vector. I have the license of your web portal, not the application, but I don't think that should make a difference. Any ideas on how to get this vector to work? Thank you.
The number is #50433877. I had to call customer service and they couldn't get it to work either. They ended up giving me a credit and I've used a vector that is similar to the for replace. Strange preview works perfectly, but when I have a license for it, it broke.

Firefox hangs the start of solange and cannot send accident report
Last night I was browsing the web and ended up having 300 + tabs open, FIrefox started to slow down a lot and no longer meets a couple of times. At the opportunity to close Firefox from the pop up window and choose to close Firefox, unfortunately when I tried to open Firefox again, he crashed and gave me the crash reporter and when I tried to present the report he has encountered a problem and may not send the report. I start Firefox in safe mode and works fine but when I try to restart its crashes with disabled modules still and unable to send the report.
If you can start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the shift/Options button then you can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.
You will need to close and restart Firefox after enabling/disabling this setting.
