Drive mapping: How can I get my external drive be mapped to F: (as he was once) rather than g: which is what happens when I turn on now.

How can I get my external drive be mapped to F: (as he was once) rather than g: which is what happens when I turn on now.  I tried to unplug and power, reboot etc.  There is no F: drive connected to the computer.

Go to start / Control Panel / administrative tools / computer management / "disk management and select external reader by clicking on it and then right-click on it and select change drive letter and paths."  It should show the letter currently assigned (G I guess).  Click the button change.  To the right will be a drop of drive letters box.  Go ahead and select F and click on OK.  That should do it. If F is not available, then it is used by the system for something else.  Check disk management to see if you can find it.  If it is not, and is not available in the list, I'm afraid, you will not be able to change until find you what is using drive letter F and remove it, or change it to something else.

I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try to understand what is using F or why it is not available.

Good luck!

How can I do a social media on my Web site LINK open an application rather than a browser?

    Short answer: a website is a website.  A Mobile application is a mobile application.  Who do you want?

    Sites Web restore inside of web browsers.  A mobile application is a downloadable application that is distinct, built for specific mobile devices (iPhone, iPad, Android, Blackberry, etc...).  To get examples of mobile applications, go to Google or Apple App store game store.

    Sorry, the setting for this preference has been removed a few years ago.

    You can try using TabMix Plus extension to add this feature to Firefox. I heard that TMP include a pref for this action.

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/Firefox/1122/

    But TMP is a very complex extension and has been problematic from time to time. My advice is to get used to manual bookmarks open in a tab by using one of the three ways that I mentioned.

  • How can I get the external classes to work in AS3? Sample included.

    I'm doing this work, and something basic must be absent.  Its straight out of the Adobe Help file example.

    CS4, Actionscript 3

    Here's what I do:

    1 create a .as file and name it "HelloWorldExample.

    2 put the script below into it and save it.

    3. create a .fla file and save it in the same directory.

    4. in the .fla file, put "HelloWorldExample" in the class of Document properties field

    5 save and run the film.

    I get a white screen.  Nothing.  I tried a few other examples, but I was not able to get ALL of the external .as files to run. It is the simplest.

    Do I need to import them or call them in some way other than step 4?

    I missed something?

    package

    {

    flash.text.engine import. *;

    import flash.display.Sprite;

    SerializableAttribute public class HelloWorldExample extends Sprite

    {

    public void HelloWorldExample()

    {

    var str = "Hello World!" This is Flash Text Engine! « ;

    var format: ElementFormat = new ElementFormat();

    var textElement: TextElement = new TextElement (str, format);

    var textBlock:TextBlock = new TextBlock();

    textBlock.content = textElement;

    var textLine1:TextLine = textBlock.createTextLine (null, 300);

    addChild (textLine1);

    textLine1.x = 30;

    textLine1.y = 30;

    }

    }

    }

    As long as you have your class paths set correctly, it is best to have your .as files in an another loc that your. Fla. What happens if you want to use the same class in different .fla? You will copy in each project file? That kind of defeats, the purpose of the use of classes and then, because if you change it you must change it in various places. Not good. No OOD.

    So: Edit > Preferences > AS3 settings - add paths to the source path, or a path... something like c:\flashclasses\as3

    Inside of your as3 application you assign to your package files. If you use TweenLite need you:

    com

    greensock

    TweenLite classes

    or yours:

    com

    Mydomain

    my classes

    then you would be important as:

    import com.greensock.TweenLite;

    import com.myDomain.myClass;

    Make sense?

  • How can I get a key product validation for Windows XP to the OEM of Vista Business downgrade, which came with my laptop?

    I recently bought an Asus laptop that came with a genuine product key Vista Business OEM. I want to downgrade to XP and have installed a copy of XP OEM for this purpose I have found information on the internet indicating that I would be able to contact Microsoft, explain my desire to downgrade, to provide them with my Vista Business product key, and they would provide me a product key for XP, I could then use to activate the copy of XP I have installed.

    However, it seems that it is more possible, because all the support activation is automated, and I was able to get a Microsoft service on the phone representative to activate my new installation of XP. How can I do to receive a product key for XP and activation of my installation?

    Thank you

    Scott

    Thanks for the replies, you two! I called Asus, and they said that, since they do not recommend the downgrade, they do not downgrade disks provide, or provide for XP Pro license keys in case a user wants to downgrade. I told them about the rights of download, which I had heard before on the MS site support and they have always said they wouldn't / couldn't provide me with a license key, even if it was for OEM Windows XP distribution. Ah, well!

    I don't think that Asus just "recommended" it or not!

    They must conform to Microsoft.

  • How can I get rid of the top of the case. offers4u and "go around the web" pop-up windows and unwanted when links pop up windows is already turned off on my laptop

    I tried this software ad/malware and tried the launchdaemon corrections responsible extensions suggested and still can't find where they are hiding on my computer.  One of them adds unwanted links with green circular arrows on other Web pages and advertising windows with offers for similar products pop - up on Safari and Chrome.  They are driving me crazy, I even paid for the software adblocking, which serves to block the sites I want to open and still allows popups!

    You may have installed ad-injecting malicious software ("adware").

    Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

    Save all data first.

    Some of the most common types of adware can be removed by following the instructions from Apple. But before you follow these instructions, you can try an automatic removal.

    If you are not already running the latest version of Mac OS X ("El Capitan"), update or upgrade in the App Store you could adware to automatically remove. If you are already using the latest version of El Capitan, you can still download the current update of the Apple Support downloads page and run it. Still, some types of malware will be deleted, not all. There is no such thing as the automatic removal of all possible malware, either by OS X third party software. That's why you can't rely on software to protect you.

    If the malware is deleted in your case, you will still need to make changes to the way you use your computer to protect you from new attacks. Ask if you need advice.

    If the malware is not automatically deleted, and you cannot remove yourself by following the instructions from Apple, see below.

    This simple procedure to detect any type of adware that I know. Disabling is a procedure distinct and better still.

    Some legitimate software is funded by advertising and may display advertisements in its own windows or in a web browser while it is running. It's not malware and it may not appear. In addition, some Web sites display advertising intrusive popup that can be confused with adware.

    If none of your web browsers work well enough to carry out these instructions, restart the computer in safe mode. Allows to temporarily disable the malware.

    Step 1

    Please triple - click on the line below on this page to select it, and then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

    ~/Library/LaunchAgents

    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 press return. Open a folder named "LaunchAgents", or you will get a notice stating that the file cannot be found. If the file is not found, proceed to the next step.

    If the folder opens, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected. Please don't skip this step.

    There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. If necessary, enlarge the window so that all the content show.

    Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "take a screenshot of a window." An image file with a name starting in 'Screenshot' should be saved to the desktop. Open the capture screen and make sure it is readable. If this isn't the case, capture a small part of the screen indicating that what needs to be shown.

    Start a reply to this message. Drag the image file in the editing window downloading. Alternatively, you can include text in the response.

    Leave the case open for now.

    Step 2

    Do as in step 1 with this line:

    /Library/LaunchAgents

    The record which can open up will have the same name but is not the same as in step 1. In this step, the folder does not exist.

    Step 3

    Repeat with this line:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons

    This time the file will be called "LaunchDaemons."

    Step 4

    Open Safari preferences window and select the tab 'Extensions'. If the extensions are listed, post a screenshot. If there are no extensions, or if you cannot launch Safari, skip this step.

    Step 5

    If you use Firefox or Chrome browser, open the list of extensions and do as in step 4.

  • How can I get my guides to align the work plan using my align palette? Whenever I hit the button Align, the guide turns completely off the drawing surface.

    I'm not crazy, he used to work. I could use the palette line up to put my guides centered, right-aligned, left-aligned, etc. I started having this problem in CS5 when I hit the button Align and the guide would go completely out of the drawing surface. I thought it was just a bug and would leave with upgrade to CC. But I'm getting the same problem! So boring.
