  I have problems since I changed my computer from vista to windows7... Sites game requiring shockwave remains... I get knocked off line every few minutes... Why? How can I stop this?
  

  Hot4Lefteris,
  The first thing I would say (if you have not already done) is to ensure that you have the latest version of Shockwave installed.  If you have still a problem, I would like to run IE without Add-ons and then put only the module Shockwave Player and the test.  Also, follow the other steps listed here and post back with the results.

  Hello retabox, welcome.

  It would seem that the installer is corrupted. I recommend trying to use the Windows Installer Cleanup utility to force - to remove the application. Try this:
  1. go to: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
  2. click on the download link in the middle of the page
  3. save the file to your desktop or just click Run the installation of the application
  4. once the application is installed, open the utility. The utility must be located in the menu START under (START > programs > Windows Installer...)
  5. in the utility, find the application you want to uninstall, and then click the button 'delete' below
  6. once removed, restart the computer and see if you can reinstall the application
  Let us know if it works,
  Thank you!

  original title: collage of album art

  Hello everyone, I have a question... In the past I have copied and pasted album art to my music (MP3) have ripped off a disk files. Is it possible to remove the art that I added and to restore the original empty file?

  Hello
   
   
  Method 1:
   
  
  Album art should appear in the view "is on the air." However, if you select the album of the artist, the album art is not displayed.
   
  
  In the upper right corner there is Options to view fall down. Change the details to tiles view expanded and the cover of the album should reappear.
   
  
  If this does not help, then go to the center of the Action. Click on troubleshooting.

• Get photos off Mac Photo into LR 6?

  LR 6 just installed on a Mac. How can I get pictures off Photo Mac app in LR6. LR import feature sees no photos in the photo library of Mac.

  Yes, right you are. But in my opinion, this is because the apple restrictions. When I realized that I can't access my photos via the finder more directly, I stopped to use the Photos and go to another way to sort my photos.

  Lets hope there is a solution in the near future.

• Hello I am downloading from my site and my characters are messy. I type an e (taken glyphs-window), but what appears is an and the copyright sign? can someone tell me how I get rid off this

  Hello I am downloading from my site and my characters are messy. I type an e (taken glyphs-window), but what appears is an and the copyright sign? can someone tell me how I get rid off this?

  I tried a lot of things, but nothing seems to make a difference.

  In my view, they have already done for you...

  The site seems OK now. Hooray !

  But let's dig down to the serious things of this.

  If the browser needs a statement of character. Probably ' UTF-8 ', but another or an older one would be as well, as long as it's cheap, and it respects the method of characterization of the Web page.

  This statement can be provided by (1) the web server itself (its default value), (2) the htaccess file in your web root directory server, or (3) on each web page. Where there are several and contradictory statements perhaps, the older in the command above rules. But in the case where the Server and the htaccess do not provide a statement of character and your web page later on, it shouldn't be a problem.

  Your provider said that they do not have a such context in their web server, and it wasn't a htaccess file in your root folder (Muse is not create it for you). Once again: do not worry, it should always be no problem, because all your web pages provides the declaration as well (thanks to Muse). We have checked that, no doubt.

  That is where their claim is not accurate. BTW: many tips are on the Internet on the common practice in this area and they all advice that the htaccess is not the place more obvious to the declaration. The page is the best place to put it.

  W3C (the 'boss' of http and html)

  some general information:

  Choosing & applying a character encoding

  putting in a .htaccess file:

  Definition of charset in .htaccess information

  and finally, put on the page:

  Declaring character encodings in HTML

  But what is even more strange: I checked the web server of your provider to access this service online, and it seems that their server is to provide a framework (and it is UTF-8, fortunately). It's the opposite of what they have been say...

  Now I have the idea of some personal provider noticed this morning that their server wasn't working properly (maybe after a failure of server or another incident or failure), serving the pages with a wrong setting. Then maybe they quickly corrected, and not to let you know that, they tell you to put in place this htaccess file (which makes no difference, just as the declaration of your page also could not prevail in the setting of the server).

  So now, you are done with all the three statements: a parameter, a htaccess in your Web site folder and that of your server page. As long as they all say and expect the same (UTF-8) you don't have to worry about this.

  Problem solved, three times!

  PS: many accommodation providers (and I'm afraid that yours as well) tend to declaring that whatever they do is 'standard' and 'obvious'. While in many situations, it's always a little different and certainly not the standard, not to mention obvious...

• I paid my money and can not access, been ripped off?

  Hi Roy,

  I just checked your account, and it seems that your order is at a standstill (it may have been a problem with the order processing). Please contact the customer service. A customer service agent should be able to tell what is the status of your subscription.
