• No option to save/open Pages files to the hard drive

  In the Pages on my MacBook Pro, I can access only now the iCloud.

  If I want to open a file, it only gives me those in the cloud, no way to navigate to those recorded on the real MBP.

  If I want to save a file, it only gives me the ability to save in the cloud, not for the real MBP.

  I checked "Help", which only says: choose "save under" and choose the folder. Who don't show up with two problems 1) no "Save as" in the menu more and 2) no way to choose any place other than the cloud.

  I had a quick glance at all parameters which seemed even vaguely be connected to Pages, but found nothing useful either. I have no idea if or what I changed in the first place.

  Naturally, I don't want or need to save ALL my files on a cloud. So, how can I teach Pages to simply do what I want?

  The following example was made with v5.6.2 on OS X 10.11.5 Pages.

  When you save a document, Pages remembers this location for the next open or save operation. The default open view will probably look like this in iCloud Drive: folder Pages. If you click on this Pages - iCloud selector, you can see the locations of the other folders. Choose one and then click on new Document.

  

  If you click on that left most button on the open Panel, it will hide the left panel of Favorites and give you this point of view even more disconcerting:

  

  You have a few choices to save a document. The first thing you need to do when you create a new document is to select the file menu: Save... and choose a location to save it under one name other than Untitled.pages. This will start the automatic backup (about every 15 seconds locally) and also the version back to history. There is also a facilitator Option key for the file that changes menu duplicate in save under... The default save Pages panel is minimalist and can cause some confusion over available save slots.

  

  Again, you can develop the where: selector to choose a local drive location, or you can click on the arrow pointing downwards in the annotation of the red circle. When you do this, a much larger window appears with the familiar left from the Favorites panel, and to choose a new save location. Once you have done this, you can also choose to make a new folder in this location to save and by clicking on the "Save" button, your document is placed in the folder that you just created.

• Satellite 855D-S5120 - wouldn't boot efi file on the HARD drive

  I had no problem to boot from a usb port or a live cd in grub or gummiboot, but I was not able to do the same with the hard drive.

  The NVRAM settings are not persistent. I was able to set a uefi shell using the two Jean efibootmgr or significant, but they are reset to zero when you restart.

  I was able to initiate gummiboot out of USB by renaming the BOOTX64.efi file

  My efi partition is fat32 and marked as boot-able. I understand that some implementations of UEFI aren't complete implementations by the UEFI specification. which I think is the case here.

  Since the NVRAM apears does not have to be definable. I need to know where and what this implementation is looking for hard disk. Someone at - it the answer?

  Hello

  I'm not sure that understand your problem.

  You are installing a U/EFI OS on the HARD drive but is unable to do start?

  I myself 13.04 successfully installed Ubuntu and Fedora 18/19, the start of UEFI.
  Of course, the installers to take care of the difficult things for me so I know little about these details.

• Cannot remove Windows XP Dual Boot with Windows 7 (partition logic-bootable) (main System Partition)

  When I put XP and 7 dual boot I them created on a drive with 2 partitions.  I don't have Windows XP and need space for windows 7 so I followed the instructions to remove it.  I used the Windows 7 disc in repair mode via Diskpart to delete the XP partition and (after release) change the master boot record to Windows 7 using Bootrec/fixmbr and /fixboot.  I then tried to activate Windows 7 new in Diskpart but received the error message:

  The VIRTUAL DISK SERVICE ERROR - the specified partition is invalid for this operation.

  It's because I had configured Windows 7 in an extended as a logical disk partition.

  I had to restore from the image I had taken and copy backup my data files.  However this left me with the following configuration:

  Primary partition

  C: Windows XP - local disk, system, Page File Active, primary

  Extended partition

  G: Windows 7 - Local, Boot, Crash Dump, logical disk

  D: programs - Local, logical disk

  Files - Local, logical disk E:

  Photos - Local, logical disk F:

  I have EaseUS Partition Master which apparently allows me to convert drive G of elementary logic.  However he would not only because it is noted as boot drive.

  How to convert G to a logical disk in a primary partition so that I can activate it?

  Start Windows 7, and format the partition ON THAT XP is installed. (This assumes that XP is on the 1st partition)

  Since the Windows 7 bootloader (BCD store was on the XP partition) you will need for this restore on Windows 7

  partition.

  Restart your computer with the Windows 7 DVD in the CD/DVD drive. Wait for Windows Start (this may take a while if you)

  have a computer to multiboot), change the language. Time/keyboard if necessary, otherwise click "next". In her "install now".

  the back.

  Then select the option 'Use recovery tool' and click 'next '.
  Now, you will see a list of "Recovery Tools". Choose "Command Prompt".

  At the DOS prompt, type the following three commands:

  Bootrec.exe /fixmbr

  Bootrec.exe /fixboot (may return a not found message "Eliment")

  Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd

  You should now see the number of Windows Installations that have been identified
  For a tripple boot computer, after that XP has been removed you will see the number 2 (the 2 other Windows 7/Vista

  facilities)

  If you see a prompt "Facility add to the startup list?", enter Y (Yes) for each installation.

  Remove the Windows 7 DVD. Close the command prompt window, and then click "Restart" to reboot the PC.

  Reboot and XP should have disappeared.

  METHOD No. 3
  If the XP partition has been installed has been severely damaged or deleted.

• I want to move the folder Program Files to another hard drive.

  I have Windows 7 installed on a small primary partition on one of the two hard drives, double boot with Windows XP.  My installation of Windows XP is on a smaller primary partition (like Windows 7) and Program Files folder on a separate drive logic in an extended partition, not on the system drive.  I want to make a folder Program Files of Windows 7 on the same logical drive, Program Files and move the Program Files from Windows 7 folder to that partition on the second hard drive.

  Just an update.  I finally managed to move 'Users' on a separate partition, so my installation of Windows 7 now has Windows on a partition, the files program on a logical drive in an extended partition, and users on a separate logic in this extended partition.

  On the Windows partition, there are junctions that point to the logical drive Program Files and the logical drive of users and editing the registry to set these default locations.  Windows updates proceed normally and successfully.  Program facilities smoothly and work as expected.  I'll post my procedures on my site, I hope that in the near future, after that I tested and confirmed their on my other Windows 7 machines.

  Be forewarned, however, that this separation will break the ability to repair/reinstall (upgrade on-site) Windows 7.  It will stop when he sees that Program Files not are not on the system partition.  However, in my particular case, I depend on third-party software disk for backup, Imaging for the loss of this functionality (repair/reinstall) has no real interest for me.  Restore a disk image is much faster.

  There are other methods posted on the net to separate these main divisions of Windows during the installation. My methods are intended to guide differently to an existing facility while retaining all the features.  And once again, as shown in this thread, Microsoft Support seems to discourage that kind of thing.

  Drop the question above actually lead to what may be a solution... The fix for Windows Vista pre SP1 fixes an issue with the (cloned) dynamic disks used to store the paging file.  I have two drives on the clone (E:\) which the system information noticed the location of the swap file.  I put the pagefile drive to C:\ in the event where it was the same problem, such as reported in the hotfix, but it has not fixed the problem...  So I assumed that this fix has been exceeded and a coincidence. But the information system showed the swapfile E:\, my dynamic disks...

  What has removed the error is "double adjustment" the return to C:\ drive.  Apparently once is not enough.  I put the pagefile on C:\ managed and rebooted system.  Then I noticed the mistake of volmgr came from miroir3 (second player in E:\) still info system showed the swapfile on C:\.   Weird indeed.  I went and be given the C:\ drive as the system swap drive to managed by activation/deactivation/Executive every car out of the current value, and then back to the desired direction.  After having done that and restart once more the error no longer appears in the event viewer at startup.

  The only thing worse than a BSOD, no BSOD.

• Vista won't go dormant and error related volmgr (could not load the crash dump driver)

  Hi all

  
  

  I've been using Vista for a couple of years and for some reason any yesterday he began to refuse to go to sleep.  I did not any changes to the system or ran updates until this happened (I'm not on Sp2, just under the security updates every now and then).  I checked the Device Manager to see if the network card has been to reactivate, but this was not the case; I also disabled the mouse of this awakening, and that did not help either.  I told him to go to sleep, and he wakes just in 1 to 5 seconds.  I checked event viewer and noticed that whenever I put him to sleep, I get volmgr error: "the system could not sucessfully load the crash dump driver.  Going back through the events, this error has not appeared before, so I guess that it is connected to the computer doesn't go to sleep.  Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

  Hi Sebas-82,

  I suggest that you update the driver for graphics card on the computer and check if it works.

  How to upgrade the graphics card on the machine driver
  
  1. click on Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click System.
  2. click the tab hardware , and then click Device Manager.
  NOTE: If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click continue.
  3. click on the graphics cards to develop.
  4. under display adapters, double-click the entry for your graphics cards, and then click the driver tab.
  5. click on Update driver software.
  6. follow the Wizard update driver to update the driver graphics cards.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly

  If updating the driver fails, then uninstall and reinstall the latest driver for the video card by downloading from the website of the manufacturer of the system.

  Also see the Microsoft kb article below.
  Windows Server 2008 or Windows Vista Service Pack 1 - systems do not generate a dump file if the system partition is a mirrored volume
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/958933

  If the previous step fails, then you need to update the motherboard chipset drivers by contacting the manufacturer of the computer.

  I hope this helps!

• I have two 2 physical HDD (logic 1 = 2 partitions, 1 with partion unique); on all the page files will improve performance, or is an annex of page file?

  My laptop has two 2 750 GB HDD (plus a 8 GB SSD Express Cache). The first HARD disk is partitioned into 2 letters two logical sectors (~ 275 GB & 375 GB {more system/recovery NTFS partitions 2}), assigned drive C (main system partition), and D (logical partition) and the second physical disk E (750 GB). Win7Pro64 created a pagefile managed system on the C drive, but not on readers D & E. Y has an advantage, or more importantly, a disadvantage to the creation of swap files on the D & E readers?

  I am not opposed to using all the 375GB logical partition on drive D as a swap file if this can help performance, and/or create a pagefile on the E drive the same size as on the C drive, once again, to help performance.

  Can someone help me with the best approach?

  Also, I have an Intel i7-3610QM with 16 GB of RAM and a GPU Nvidia GeForce GTX G675M with 2 GB of RAM.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  The best option is to let Windows control the pagefile.

• Two hard drives - what to set the page file to?

  I have two hard drives, Windows is installed on C:, what should I set my page of the settings file for better performance? Hard drive space is not a problem, I have a 250 GB and a 1 TB drive, both are less than half full. I have 3.25 GB of RAM DDR2.

  I heard move the swap file on a second hard drive is beneficial, because the OS files and the page file could be consulted at the same time. Defining a very large page file or file page on both drives will hurt performance? What is a variable size compared to a matter of constant size?

  It shouldn't be noticeable performance difference if the swap file is bigger than "necessary".

  If your system can it take into account, it is considered generally to be a performance advantage to put the file on a different physical disk than the operating system is installed, provided the other player does not see many IO already.

  By using a constant size / fixed can eliminate fragmentation of the file page that can occur if it is sized dynamically.

  If you anticipate relying heavily on the swap file, maybe reconsider and add more RAM to the system, if possible, or upgrade to a 64-bit computer and the operating system that is able to handle more RAM.

  If the swap file itself grows in fact you may suspect a leak memory by an application, it is called a leak 'Paged', usually, notice increased use of pagefile with an increasing slowness of the machine.  As the demand for 'leaks' or consumes more memory Windows pages pages of the RAM in the swap file, where the name, 'Paged' leaking, leaks memory in the paging file.

  The Task Manager is not a very good job of giving you the 'real' swap file usage, to get use accurate, you can analyze the file with the corresponding Perfmon counter or you
  can use PageFileMon from Doug Knox utility: http://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_pagefilemon.htm

  Open your task manager and click on the view menu and click Select columns...  Put a check mark on the columns paged and Thread Count.  Keep an eye on these columns over a period of time, showing a constantly growing number likely suspicious process Thread.

  You can monitor these counters with Perfmon, that might be useful:

• Problem with MSINFO32. EXE and Total/available vs Page file space virtual memory reported

  I am running Windows XP Professional SP3 with all installed updates, latest hardware drivers, etc.. It is a CLEAN installation on a material brand new, completed a week ago.
  The "/ PAE" switch is enabled in the boot.ini file.

  When I run MSINFO32. EXE, the summary of the system is the following:
  System model: System product name
  System type: X 86-based PC
  Processor: x 86 family 16 model 4 Stepping 3 Mhz-AuthenticAMD ~ 3515
  The version of the BIOS/Date: American Megatrends Inc. 1702, 22/12/2010
  SMBIOS Version: 2.5
  Windows directory: C:\WINDOWS
  System directory: C:\WINDOWS\system32
  Starting device: \Device\HarddiskVolume2
  Locale: United States

  Username: username MYUSERNAME01\My (redacted for privacy)
  Time zone: Pacific Daylight Time
  Total physical memory: 8 MB 192,00
  Available physical memory: 2.60 GB
  Total virtual memory: 2.00 GB
  Available virtual memory: 1.96 GB
  Page file space: 7.07 GB
  File: E:\pagefile.sys

  Right click on 'my computer' and selecting 'Properties' shows exact needs to be visible to a 32 bit OS... 3.24 GB of RAM. So, how MSINFO32. EXE is able to detect all of 8 GB is totally beyond me. But this isn't my problem.

  My BIG PROBLEM is the virtual memory. If I open the root of my drive E:\, it shows the swap file to size: 4 096 MB. And that's how it is in 'my computer' > 'Advanced' > 'Performance' > 'Advanced' > 'virtual memory' > 'change'.
  Custom size:
  -Initial size (MB): 4096
  -Maximum size (MB): 4096
  Total size of file for all readers:
  -Minimum authorized: 2 MB
  -Recommended: 4978 MB
  -Currently allocated: 4080 MB

  Why is-MSINFO32. EXE, statement my total virtual memory 2 GB and the size of pagefile 7.07 GB? Neither is correct! Can someone explain just what the heck happens here? My research on Google, many other people report the same total/available virtual memory amounts, with wildly different hardware configurations. I changed the size manually and rebooted several times, without result. I had the pagefile, sitting in a 5 GB partition, and then he moved on to another drive with plenty of space and assign "System managed". Divergence still existed.

  The material is as follows:
  [|] ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 BIOS v1702 [|] AMD PhenomII x 4 (970 Black Edition) [|] Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1600C8 (x 2) mode modules together ~ 800 Mhz & calendar 8-8-8-24 [|] Integrated graphics card Radeon HD 4250 with 128 MB + 512 MB memory [|] ASUS VE248H 24 "1080 p HD LED monitor [|] Drives from Maxtor 6V250F0 (x 4) 250 GB SATAII 1.5 Gbps [|] LG BD - DL Optical Drive WH10LS30 [|] Creative Labs X - Fi Platinum Sound Card [|] Logitech LX 700 keyboard/mouse wireless [|]

  I changed the speed / "timing" on the RAM to run ~ 666 Mhz @ 9-9-9-24, and the problem persists. As far as I know, he is not actually detrimental to the system; that is, it does not regularly, crash or anything. But the fact that MSINFO32. EXE cannot obtain such a right basis is VERY disturbing for me. There is no state what operating system says it is, then what fundamental problem may arise at some point in the future? Or is already there, hidden and wait a moment when the system load is high until it rears its ugly head and denounces all?
  I wonder if I should completely eliminate virtual memory? Or at least reduce the pagefile to 2 GB or close? After all, I can't imagine many running programs as long as 3.24 GB (RAM available for the operating system) is not sufficient to contain all this. I guess only he pourrait happen, however, is why I'm reluctant to totally renounce virtual memory.

  Anyway. Responses of all appreciated. Gimme a solutionand I will give my first-born. Or at least the neighbors...

• Qosmio X 770-Crash Dump when the games

  Hope this is the right forum for this.

  I am retired and have minimal knowledge of technology, although I've used them for many years.

  In the 5-6 months, I get a crash dump on my laptop whenever I enter a game when the computer is turned off. I only played two games - WoW and Guild Wars 2.
  Keep a single file is shown on the blue screen - nv1ddmkm.sys.

  Whenever the discharge occurs I get the screen restart and I choose 'normal mode '.
  I then have all the other problems as long as I do not turn off the computer.

  I noticed that when this happens, the Nvidia graphic card not more appears in Device Manager and is no longer recognized by the computer (I tried a new Toshiba for Nvidia driver installation, and the installation stopped - saying my that no such system existed).

  Also after one of these accidents, WoW put up a box suggesting that I should update my Intel HD Graphics driver.

  When I do a "cold start" (machine is turned off for a period of) the Nvidia card appears in the Device Manager again and I can do a clean install of the driver.
  I have the latest version of the driver provided by Toshiba (a date in 2011).

  _This problem only occurs when the games. _
  Y at - he at any time, including watching Youtubes or DVD, any problem.

  When you play Wow I must have my graphics settings on "Fair" - the same that I used to use on my old desk. I bought the Qosmio, as it was marketed as a gaming machine.
  I feel as if I made a really stupid decision to buy.

  Can I get advice as to whether it is a software problem - and, if so, how I can fix it. or is it a hardware problem with my Nvidia card? I am inclined to believe that a card problem can be very expensive to fix, or not at all.

  My rear cynicism it's ugly head that my warranty missed last December.

  This file belongs to the nVidia graphics card driver, and I think that the cause of the graphics card of this issue.

  The problem could be the high temperature.
  Constraints of the game and load the CPU and especially the GPU (graphics chip). The two parties to limit and creates a lot of heat. This is why I think that the high temperature can be the cause of your problem.

  Never clean the grids and the cooling fans in the past?
  From time to time it s a good idea to clean the fans because dust can affect the circulation of air and cooling performance. In this case I recommend to get rid of the dust using a jet of compressed air.
  It should be good enough.
  If it wouldn't help you much, the device must be cleaned professionally.

• If I expanded my page file it will slow down the my computer?

  original title: question of Page file.
  If I do my pagefile to high it will slow down my computer. What size do you recommend for xphome, serv.pk.3, win. Exp 8, 32-bit color, cap 28.6 GB drive with 18gbfree, 256 MB of ram. Right now I have 800 MB allocated to the total size of pagefile for all readers.

  I changed my pagefile to 385 x 385 and changed manage the use of mem for better for appearance to let windows decide what works best. So I changed my mini to the full kernel dump file. I tried to move the pagefile from drive c where I assume that windows is installed in the disc volume label box but there is only one disc in the box and it wouldn't let me do anything IE no response in the mouse. How do you add another drive for the drive volume label area? My computer is a stand alone im thinking what it would take to being connected to a network? Once I restarted my comp... regardless I, really helped 'US' and there was a significant increase in speed. If YOU YOU YOU YOU a lot indeed. Dana Rose
