• Why can I not see the files I back up by using the backup and restore of Vista

  Can someone help me?  I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 and implemented backup and restore feature Vista so that every Sunday he automatically backs up my computer to my external drive.  I was on the computer when he said it starts up and that upward was completed successfully.  I assummed everything was fine until today when I show my father my drive external and noticed that none of the backup of files were there... or at least I did not see them.  The only files on the disk were the ones I put manually on here from my old computer.  I then ran a manual upward using Vista and again it says backup successfully completed.  I then watched the external hard drive and once again no new files.  The strange thing is the back up and restore program shows all the dates he has saved and also allows me to restore files from the back to the top.  To do this, I deleted a file I didn't really need out of my hard drive and then is gone to restore program and found the file and restored.  Problem is that the program does not say where he makes the file from.  What is going on?  Are backup files of certain types of hidden file I don't see unless I use the backup and restore program under vista?  I am currently running Vista Home Premium on a 32 bit system and the external hard drive I have is a Western Digital My Book Essential Edition.

  Windows backup is stored in a folder with the same name as your computer.  Open a command prompt and type echo %ComputerName% or startup, right-click on computer, properties.  You should see that % ComputerName % folder on your external drive, and in this context, a backup set.

• Im trying to publish a document that I create on Indesign, but when I push producer Folio he takes me to the Adobe web page and tells me that I don't have a folio.  How can I fix?

  Im trying to publish a document that I create on Indesign, but when I push producer Folio he takes me to the Adobe web page and tells me that I don't have a folio.  How can I fix?

  Check if you have created a folio in offline mode (appears with the icon of the computer/processor) to Panel Builder Folio in InDesign?

  Or folio is created under a different account in Panel Builder Folio.

  If the Folio is Offline: connect on Folio Builder Panel using the producer identification information Folio, folio offline select and click Download. Now, you will get this folio in Folio Producer and would be available for the publication of too.

  For more information, see https://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-suite/help/create-folios.html#folio_builder_pan el_overview

  If you are connected to the Panel Builder Folio under a different account: share folio with desired edition account, after the folio appears below the post account. Now, either you can publish or create a copy (to control properly), and then publish the copied folio. Digital Publishing Suite help | Creation of folios

  My photoshop says that I don't have 512 MB of VRam, but I do my GPU is 2 GB, what do I do?

  No need to yell.  I can fix it for you if you want?

  Using a laptop?  If so, does dual GPU?  If Yes and the main GPU is a NVIDIA'm ', open the control panel NVBIDIA and in something like "3D settings", you might be able to force the primary GPU.

  Or, check the preferences > performance > GPU acceleration. Is it turned on?  What GPU does show?

• MS complete PC Backup and Restore for Vista Ultimate backup programs and files?

  I'm new to computers and there is still a lot to learn, I have an OS Vista Home Premium and I think to upgrade to Ultimate and I read that the complete PC Backup and restore can be used with MS Virtual Server to back up the computer. But what I read didn't specifically tell me if she saves some programs I downloaded, it says full backup but computer language being what it is I don't quite mean it as programs and files, which is what I'm interested in. So I can save my programs and files with this system? I don't want to go all the time, trouble and upgrade costs if I can only do half of what I want to do. Thanks a lot for any help on this idea.

• Windows complete PC Backup and Restore for Vista Home Premium

  I finally new PC my son all set up with Vista 64-bit Home Premium and installation is sublime.

  But when I looked for a few floppy bootable installation complete I think I bought the wrong version of the program.

  "Windows complete PC Backup and Restore" only comes with the Ultimate and Business edition.

  Is it possible to add this functionality to my version of windows without switching completely to the Ultimate version?

  No, you will need a third party app. Many people prefer Acronis True Image, but I lean toward a slightly more expensive, but a complete solution, with this app.

• I'm trying to watch videos on the BBC website, and it says that I don't have the medium appropriate - when I try to download Adobe Flash Player, it says that I must first leave Firefox - can you help me please download some media to watch these video? Tha

  Firefox is our main source of internet but when I try to watch videos on the BBC website, it says that I must first download Adobe Flash player - when I try to do, it stops, indicating that I must first leave Mozilla Firefox - can you please help? Thank you

  Close the firefox window, and the installation should continue. Or, press CTRL + ALT + DEL, find firefox.exe in the process and end it by selecting it and pressing del
  Then it should continue. If this isn't the case, close the flash installation window, make sure that firefox is closed, then re - open.

• I don't have a single drive hard, but pc says I have c and d ' training is posible to bolt to merge and have only one

  I can't update windows xp drive c doesn't say not enough free space do not understand how I c and d when I have only a hard drive

  This article (KB187876) is a little dated.  The suggestion to convert to FAT32 FAT16 is!  And references to Scandisk and DriveSpace3 reveal even that the article was probably written with Win 98 in mind.

  I realize that the article header says "Last Review: February 3, 2011 - review: 4.1", but without doubt, Microsoft should have removed this article or at least Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me added to the list of "products of this article applies to" rather than leave it just to "Windows Update" (which makes it sound as if it applies to current versions of Windows).

  To the original poster:

  If D: is on your hard drive (instead of referring to a CD player), TechGeek2 is probably right that there is a restore partition and should be left alone.  Here is my answer to the question of the "low disk space": canned

  There are a number of things you can do to- temporarily - free up disk space.  The only real solution, however, is to get a bigger internal hard drive or internal a second drive.   You can move the data to an external drive, but if it's the data that you use frequently, slower access times may annoy you.  Therefore, I do not recommend that you move your My Documents folder in its entirety on an external drive, but you can certainly do this by following the related instructions. Moving My Documents to a second internal drive would be OK.

  • You can run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr > OK)
  • You can reduce the size allocated for the restoration of the system to about 1 GB (right click on desktop > properties > system restore > settings)
  • You can disable hibernation (if you don't use it) (right click on an empty spot on the desktop > properties > screen saver > power > Hibernate)
  • You can disable the indexing of the drive, which will also speed up your computer a bit (http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp)
  • You can reduce the size of your Internet browser cache (depending on the browser that you use)
  • You can remove most of the $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx files $ following the directions here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm (read the warnings in the gray box first)
  • See also:

  " How to recover disk space on Windows Server 2008 and Windows XP computers? ."

  " Forty ways to free disk space ."

  But none of these answers you will earn really large amounts of space for very long.  The term solution time is a bigger hard drive.

  In the meantime, download and run JDiskReport, that will show you graphically what files take up more space and seem to so indicate what files you must move it to your external drive.  If you want to move an application to another drive (external drive or secondary internal drive), you will need to uninstall and then reinstall it specifying the other drive as the installation location.  You can not simply move the files.  Even when an application is installed on a different drive, however, it may well put some files on the system drive (i.e. the drive where Windows is located).
