• New Alienware Aurora R4 freezes every time in 50 minutes

  I just got my new Alienware Aurora and oh joy, my first time owning this beautiful Monster - looking for a machine.  I have owned it now for five 5 days; but the experience so far has been frustration, to put it lightly.

  The machine never stays more than 60 minutes at a time.  It crashes.  When it crashes, I hear the fans always roll the led still under the display theme AlienFX I put and it seems that everything is fine, but:

  1. the SCREEN turns off

  2. the keyboard does not work, systems is not responding to strikes again... as the keyboard is dead.

  3 mouse works now.

  4. nothing works, except the DVD tray that always comes out and in.

  5 only the resolution is to force close it down and then turning it back on, via the power button.

  I just installed MS Office, my keyboard and my mouse.  Nothing complicated.  I've now adjusted the power management to ensure that the disc hard system, display, etc. NEVER goes to SLEEP.  Yet, the machine still crashes as usual.  I'm not even games.  Simply creating a document, or watching a training video.  I even decided to just share my training on the Alienware video file and watch the video from another computer; accidents still Alienware and my video stops.  I decided to disable Windows Update, still problem persists.

  I checked EventViewer for clues, NOTHING.  No log entry for when the system unresponsive.  What kind of a computer is what the hell?  I thought that with Alienware, I won't have any hassles, but this has been an exercise in troubleshooting non-stop for me since I got this computer; It became a distraction, as whenever I sit down to work, I find myself troubleshoot the computer each time.  I'm now trying to force me to forget everything and just use my old laptop; that I supposedly replaced when I upgraded to this Alienware machine.

  It's Sunday today, I intend to call technical support for Dell tomorrow to start the support process.  But to give up some lines here just to get feedback / if there are similar experiences that can shed some light on this problem.

  Please any response that can point me in the right direction will be appreciated.

  Hello

  Yes.  A quick update from my post.  I called Dell technical support on Monday 20 October 2014 and the guys were fantastic.  I spoke with a guy named Bogdan; He spent almost 3 hours working with me on the problem over the phone.

  I'll give you a detailed below:

  At the time that I called him, the computer was no longer able to boot the system.  This is because the previous night, I have run AlienRespawn default factory reset, but the shutdown of PC in the process and then was not start over; and instead showed the blue screen.

  So on the phone with Technical Support, we used AlienRespawn USB backup I had created the first day to reset the computer back to factory default.  And then I connected and put things up so that he can have the remote connection to the computer.  As soon as he connected, the computer decided to die just so :).  So we decided to do the Reboot usual cold.  And once again, as soon as it is connected and looking to run some test, the computer exploded again.

  On the third attempt, the computer remained.

  Bogdan then via a remote connection session, several controls and ran several stress-tests on virtually everything (RAM, CPU, graphics, etc.).  All tests came out, as adopted.  And then we installed software to monitor temperature and other stats like stress tests were running; all readings were really good.  Source of the problem was not yet clear.  We have been jointly shrink on two possible culprits, the graphics card or motherboard (or both in the worst case).

  As we are still brainstorming and then try the AlienFX theme colors, the computer decided that it was time to STOP, once again.  And this time it faced a 6 six sound beeps sound sequence several times.  He did this once before, the previous week.

  The machine had a mind of your own.  It was very random behaviors all the time.  He gave beeps when he wanted to.  He has changed the settings of the BIOS on its own; change the default settings, mode strives / EUFI, etc at random :).

  So we turned and technical support preserved in tests.  He also uninstalled and reinstalled the updated version of the Alienware Command Center.  Even after that, all the readings and the results were perfect, but then Switched OFF the machine once again.

  Makes technical support a call to change the four main components: motherboard, graphics card, MasterBoard and Water-Cooling system for the next day.   So I was expecting an engineer for the next day.  That evening, I decided to install all my software and turn on the computer to a State that is useful for my work and play.

  The morning next day (Tuesday), I decided to continue to use the computer and just keep restarting it out every time.  And then, at some point given around 10:00, he remained THERE for nearly two hours (first time he stayed on this long), I was pretty sure that the problem had gone for an unknown reason.  And to share the joy with my Mrs, the machine went OFF :).

  And this time it's completely DEAD.  It was not turn on anymore.  The LEDs and fan are turning on, but not to life on the screen, the keyboard or the mouse.  It remained so until the Dell technician came.

  To my delight, a Dell technician was at my door at about 14:00, with all the necessary parts.  He was also very friendly and empathetic.  He quickly set to work and replaced all suspect parts.  We went ON and, oh joy :).  The machine came back running.

  He made all necessary BIOS settings and my machine was fully operational.

  I used it for almost 2 days now and no problems at all so far.  It's been great, even if sometimes it's like the trauma remains... I still fear that he might simply turn off on me anytime.  But so far so good.

  So I can say at this moment, the issue is resolved and my device is fully operational.  Thanks for the support.  I hope that my very long story somehow help others who have a similar experience with their machine.

• Have just bought a new iMac and imported all my old data.  When I try to open a pages document it says that it cannot be opened because it is too old, and that to open it, I have to save it with Pages ' 09 first.  So, how he back up if I can't open it?

  Start the OS X App Store, then click on the item toolbar updates. V5.6.1 pages should be available, and this will open documents Pages ' 09, ' 08 and ' 06. In messages to this community, you should always share what version specific pages and OS X that you are currently using.

• Hi all! I have a 3 out of 5, and I just bought the new goal of 100-400 L IS II.

  Hi all!  I have a 5 d Mark III, and I just bought the new goal of 100-400L IS II.  I have an EF 2 x III Extender, and I can't get the auto focus lens when using the Extender.  Can someone help me with this?

  Using an Extender X 2 double your minimum opening.  The opening of the 100-400 is 4, 5-5, 6, so if you double it is 9-11.  The maximum of 5 d 3 can autofocus is f/8, and I think that it is only the point central (and with the firmware?  I don't remember).

  Long story short, no AF with the 2 X.   With 1.4 x center point should work.

  I just bought a new computer phone n want to spend all my outlook folders to the new unit. How can I do

  Put the .pst file from your old machine on a USB key with sufficient capacity or burn it to a CD - R. Copy the .pst to your new computer. Place it in your directory My Documents.

  Open Outlook on the new computer and set up your email accounts. Get the settings from the server of your Internet service provider's Web site if you do not know. There is usually a tutorial to set up different email clients.

  MVP Hal Hostetler:

  1. When you copy the. Your old HD to the new PST file, place it in a folder where it will NOT overwrite any existing. PST files; crush one. PST file that is in use can cause profile corruption.

  2 should NEVER use Outlook Import and export functions with. PST files. This feature is broken and has been for some time.  It often helps translates into corruption of the profiles, the more you lose the following data:

  1. custom Forms
  2 custom views
  3. links between contacts and activities
  4 receipt dates on mail
  5 birthdays and other events in the calendar
  6. journal connections
  7. distribution lists

  All you need to do is open Outlook on the new machine, go into "file |" Open | Outlook data file ", browse to your old." PST, and then click OK.  You now have access to all your old data. You can do this. Default PST file and continue to use it, or drag and drop its content in the new 2007 Outlook created during installation. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• I just got a new Windows 7 computer. How I completely restart the entire computer and lose all files, applications, etc., that never came with the computer first?

  * Original title: restart the computer

  I just got a new Windows 7 computer, and it has many applications in this shift makes the apps that I really need. How can I completely restart the computer world and lose all files, applications, etc., that came with the computer first

  If these are apps you added and want more, you can use the functionality of your computer factory restore. Unfortunately, this erases the disk and leave you with a double précis of his State when you turned on for the first time.  Then, you would have to do all the updates of Windows and then install all the programs you want.

  Otherwise, use programs uninstaller (from Control Panel) for each application that you do NOT want to uninstall.

• Can I install Photoshop CC on my machine and then turn it off, and install on a new machine (just ordered) later on?

  I need to download and use PhotoShop CC for a project that I am working now.  I just also custom and ordered a new laptop on which I will use CC thereafter.

  My question is, can I disable CC on the old laptop and activate on the new when I get (under the same license)?

  Hello Delano,

  Yes. You can.

  You can actually have installed creative cloud and on two computers, signed as long as you don't use it on one at a time.

  Download and install as you did on the first computer, sign in to your Adobe account on the Adobe using your Adobe ID website, download the desktop app from clouds, then download the software. Sign on a computer that should not be used: log in and log out of the desktop Adobe Creative Cloud application

  Could not copy a file at the location requested. Mac OS 10, Version 10.10 [1].

  I JUST bought this new macbook pro and Lightroom installed, imported 2 lots of pictures, but all of a sudden he kept denying my imports with "could not read the file" or "couldn't copy file at the location requested.  Help, please!

  Your use of the word "files" (in the plural) still makes me believe that you have not checked the permissions on the folder that is appropriate (in the singular).

  You must determine the Destination of the Lightroom Import dialog window Panel and see which folder Lightroom is really tr6ing to copy photos in (which may have been accidentally changed and is not what you may have used in the past) and change the permissions to write to this folder.
