Step 1. Identify the make and model of the USB device.
Step 2: Identify the version of Windows XP you have, including service pack (start > run > winver > OK)Although the following steps 1 & 2 you could get extra help, I suspect that the 'USB device' has indeed "defective" and you have to go back to where you got it and request a refund or a replacement.

Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problem.
See "create a profile":
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/Profile-Manager-create-and-remove-Firefox-profiles
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile already used in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting more problems.
Try a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.
- Download the full Firefox installation program and save the file to the desktop
https://www.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/all/
If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.
- Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.
Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
- (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
- (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.
- It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.
If you keep problems also create a new profile.

Windows does not recognize my printer when I plug the USB
I recently had my computer repaired of malware/virus/faulty software issues, and now the printer that had formerly been installed is no longer recognized. It is not in the Panel and plug/unplug the USB does nothing. I don't know where my printer CD is, as I was not the person who originally installed this unit (I'm the kind of office it's guy, with very little knowledge, as you can see).
Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

My system has been initially implemented as a Dual Boot XP / Vista. Vista has been deleted and I would like to delete the reference from Vista in the trunk. In the case where someone boots into existence no reference of Vista, the systems does not crash but goes in a loop in question, try to Boot. By answering the questions, the system takes you to the initial question, with "an earlier version of Windows or Vista? How can I eliminate this? It is not a problem, once you know you have to select "older version", but if you do not, the timer runs out and trying to boot Vista. Many people use this system and good day, they get caught up in this cycle.
Best regards
Mike Lynch

Your master boot record think you still have Vista.
You can fix this since the XP Recovery Console.
You can start RC since a genuine XP bootable installation CD or make you a CD bootable XP Recovery Console using these instructions:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic276527.html
After booting into the Recovery Console, you should be in this folder:
C:\WINDOWS
Enter the following command and answer Yes to the warning:
FIXMBR
Enter the following command and answered in the affirmative:
Fixboot
Remove the Console CD recovery and type 'Quit' to restart your system.

My activation key for windows 7 (bought from my college) does not work. How can I contact someone who can help?
-MikeHello djplexus
First, you will need to understand how to set up the dual boot. This will allow you to be able to choose between XP and 7 at startup.With regard to the creation of an image of Windows XP Backup there is no Windows XP software that will do it for you. You will need to look to third-party vendors for support with this issue. Thank you. -
How install .man files or other files that Windows does not recognize?
I found my own answer. I write just in case someone else has a similar problem.
I tried to install the software on my computer that was supposed to be a "msi" file and installed as a file ".man". Basically, Windows does not recognize some types of codes that install files can install as. Microsoft Help and chat live did not help, so I called my dad and the solution is relatively simple: change the type of file manually.
1) go to control panel
(2) search of Folder Options and open it.
(3) uncheck Hide file extensions
(4) go to which the file was saved (make a copy of it to the case where)
(5) change the endpoint in .msi or your type of file of choice
6} window opens asking if you want to change the file type, and then click ok.
I hope this helps someone as lost as I was!
Thank you
Bradley
Well, .man is not a valid file for installers type, so now the question is why the hell gave you a .man as installation file first. You can inform the place you have setup of.

I use an iPad. It switches me automatically in Acrobat outdated in DC. How can I remove the documents that have been on my iPad with the old Acrobat? They are not in the cloud, and DC does not appear to be a function of deletion for them.
Hello
By default, Acrobat DC IOS shows the consulted files recently. You need to switch to another file location (for example, Local, Document cloud creative) to delete, rename, move or duplicate files.
You can switch to the Local, if you do not want the files and folders that are stored locally on your iPad.
Do you want to take a look at the following document to see how you can switch to another file location and delete the files?

Firefox 26:
The fix turn browser.download.useToolkitUI true subject: config does not work. How can I get rid of the crap from the library and retrieve my download Panel?The downloads window went into Firefox 26. The preference of browser.download.usetoolkitui has been removed. If you still see in Subject: config, it is because you have already customized its value. Right-click and choose reset; It will be gone the next time you start Firefox.
I believe that the plan was still in the window replacement of downloads with the downloads Panel and the library category. Given that its code had not been maintained, he had several questions, such as incompatibility with private per-window.
If you have any suggestions to improve the downloads Panel or the library category, you can drop highlighting bug reports.
You can also try the following add-on.
Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.
