hide a drive from observer but not computer

Is it possible to hide a drive from the Viewer, but not from the computer? I have a reserved system area that received a letter from Reader by the system, and makes me confused when I see listed everywhere drive readers are displayed.  I won't try to hide this drive until I know for sure that I can hide without confusing the system.

I found this article on how to do what you want:
http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/hide-drives-from-your-computer-in-Windows-Vista/

To quote the article, "this trick allows to hide only the disc is more displayed, applications and the command prompt will always have access to it, and you can still manually browse to the folder, if you type the path'.

So the OS should not be confused by the fact that you do not see the drive.

  • How to restore pictures that have been deleted from Lightroom, but not removed from the 'drive '?

    How to restore pictures that have been deleted from Lightroom, but not removed from the 'drive '? Also, how can I restore photos after saving Lightroom. I started to remove some files and it removed ALL of them! I chose the option "cancel delete files" and them brought back, she says they are all "missing or offline. I tried to 'find' a different folder and it deleted the folder all together and now I don't know where he is. Help, please!

    How to restore pictures that have been deleted from Lightroom, but not removed from the 'drive '?

    You need a backup of your Lightroom catalog file before deleting the photos made. You have such a backup? If so, find the backup catalog, open it (double click on it) and then search for the photos you want and select them and then file-> export catalogue; Then go to your original catalog file, open it and select file-> import from another catalog and points to the catalog that you just exported.

    If you do not have a backup of your catalog file, then the only thing you can do is to import the photos again, and Lightroom will treat them as totally new photos with no editing and no metadata provided by the user.

    Moreover, the idea of importing photos into Lightroom and then later removing them to Lightroom should is limited to photos you will EVER want such a photos that are so overexposed or underexposed or blurred that they are essentially useless. The photos that you care enough to run a task on (including editing) should never be removed from Lightroom.

    Also, how can I restore photos after saving Lightroom.

    Is this the same problem as above, or another?

    I chose the option "cancel delete files" and them brought back, she says they are all "missing or offline.

    Is it possible that you actually deleted pictures from the hard disk, as well as from Lightroom? Anyway, Lightroom cannot find the photos and you first need to find photos on your hard drives and then direct Lightroom to the location of the photo on your hard drive, using these instructions Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing

  • HP Officejet Pro 8625: I am able to print from windows, but not able to print from Word

    I installed an HP Officejet Pro 8625 wireless to my network.  I am able to scan from my computer and print from Chrome, but am not able to print from Mozzila or Word.  I replaced a HP Officejet 6500 with this device.  I can print from my mobile devices.   Any help would be welcome.

    Hello

    I found the answer to that by trawling for ever, it IS a HP PROBLEM, ARE YOU listening TO HP?

    the fact is that the printer driver will agree that a system administrator to print from some programs, Adobe, Office, Wordpad there more, but if you apply this fix, they will print

    go to the HEART control PANEL > USER ACCOUNTS > CHANGE USER ACCOUNT SETTINGS.

    Drag the slider to the bottom never notify, and then restart your computer.

    Indeed, you raise your account to an admin sys, but if HP has got their act together, they would sort this issue, because it is everywhere in their forums.

  • Find files on the data store that have been removed from inventory, but not deleted from the disk

    I have ESXi 4.1 and with vSphere Client to manage virtual machines.

    Some of my users continue to use the 'remove from inventory"rather than the option" remove disc "in vSphere when they want to delete the virtual machine.

    This leaves the computer virtual on the data store but not used. I have since removed this privilege among the offending users but I need to do a bit of cleaning.

    I have a lot of files on the data store where users have done this in recent years. Probably about 150 records but only 80 VM listed in the inventory.

    Is there a way I can output, a report showing the data of each machine store directory in inventory so that I can remove anything not on this list? ID rather not to manually check the parameters of all 80 VM in the inventory.

    Out ideal would be something like:

    MyVmNameHere 1, \MyVmDirectoryHere1\ [DataStore1]

    MyVmNameHere2, \MyVmDirectoryHere2\ [DataStore1]

    A great tool to discover all this and much more is RVTools

  • USB flash drives from the manufacturer, not even identifiable in a unique way

    I often buy handle USB flash drives when they are on sale. Readers differ only by serial number. If I have several USB flash drives plugged into the host (LINUX Xubuntu 11.10) I have no way of knowing which drive is which, when I want to connect (disconnect from the host and connect to the virtual computer) at the prompt. Devices simply show the disc by manufacturer name. Also if I have a USB drive connected to a virtual computer and insert a second identical disc it is automatically attributed to this same guest VM, which presents the problem backwards. Can I be sure which drive I delete.

    There must be a way to identify devices. Because all operating systems allow discs to be named or labeled could we not have the name of the label or label/manufacturers to identify the USB devices. In the heat of the action to remove the incorrect device could easily result in loss of data.

    A feature on your status request is open. Thanks for your good suggestion!

  • Disorder of connection Office remotely from home, but not at the school next to the computer is trying to access

    I have windows 7 Home premium edition. My laptop is a toshiba satellite A665, with a 64-bit operating system, I use the remote desktop connection for access to several computers at school. When I'm in the same room to access the remote desktop computers, it works very well (I tried all 5 computers).

    From home, when I click on connect, simply Initializes the connection, then said he can't connect because 1) remote access server enabled not (I know I did it on the computers at school, as well as it worked before) 2) the remote computer is disabled, which is not true) 3 the remote computer is not available on the network (not sure what it means, so it could be the problem).

    Why it would work very well before when in the same room and not at home?  Help!

    Thank you!

    My husband rocks and told me that I had to be connected via my VPN. Then he helped me to install the cisco vpn and connect, so I can be on the appropriate network. All's well now :)

  • DVD drive reads CD but not DVD.

    I use a laptop Gateway M - 151 X with an Optiarc DVD RW AD - 7640 A ATA device. The player is no longer plays DVDs, although it does not read CD. I have read through similar problems on this site and tried to follow the advice given there. So far I have uninstalled the driver (and reinstalled by rebooting) and removed the UpperFilters and LowerFilters in the registry. I also ran this Mr Fixit: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/cd_dvd_drive_problems, who told me that the problem was fixed when I ran with a CD, but he told me that the disc is unreadable when I ran fixit with a DVD. Other suggestions (for example in the selected answer here: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistahardware/thread/f388ca10-ba0b-4aa6-8f0d-be24034ada3b) do not seem to apply. Is there anything else I can do in addition to open up the computer and check the cables? I don't know what to look for and won't cause other problems.

    I don't know if this is related, but I also ran this Mr Fixit: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/hardware_device_problems, who told me he had a problem with the card Microsoft 6to4 driver, which he is then fixed by put it back automatically.

    Get a DVD cleaning disc and use it to wipe the drive.  Your drive uses different leaders internally to read CD and DVD so if one works and the other does not, a dirty car may be the cause.

  • My CD/DVD drive reads CD but not DVD

    Hi all

    I have a TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633M DVD player in my laptop and after about 6 months of use, the drive stopped reading/writing DVD. It still reads CDs fine and sometimes will read a DVD completely (without provocation and without warning...!) but is very skittish and stops randomly just to play a DVD. Often, the player will eject and give an error message tells me to insert a disc. I don't know what to do.

    I am running Windows Vista 32-bit. I tried to run the Microsoft Fixit application, which recognizes that the drive is unable to read DVD but offers nothing more useful than and doesn't solve anything (despite its name...). I've read through a number of different forums and have found a range of advice: replace the disk, uninstall and reinstall the drivers or editing the registry. What should I do to solve this problem? Naturally, I would prefer not to have to replace the drive itself, but if it's the only way...

    Thanks in advance!

    Mangi

    The registry thing only works if the drive is completely AWOL from the system so that it does not appear as a drive in "My Computer"... not your problem. The DVD and CD using different lasers and it is not uncommon to go wrong and the other not. You can check the operation of the DVD trying to boot from a bootable DVD. If you can not drive is bad and needs to be replaced. If it works sometimes and not others it could just need a good cleaning with a DVD lens cleaner.

  • How to download pictures from iCloud, but not upload to iMac

    Hi all

    I have an iMac, my wife and I have iPhones and our daughter has an iPodTouch.

    Currently, we are all transfer our photos of our individual iCloud account.

    I want to download pictures of each on my iMac iCloud account, but then not upload to each other iCloud.

    Is this possible?  I managed to stop the iMac Photos to upload on iCloud, but I don't see how to set up the iMac to download from each people iCloud account.

    Thank you for reading

    Currently, we are all transfer our photos of our individual iCloud account.

    What iCloud service do you use for this?  iCloud photo library?  iCloud drive?  My photo stream?

    on Photos for Mac synchronization with iCloud goes two ways. If you enable iCloud Photo library or my photo stream on your Mac, download photos from your Mac to iCloud photo library and upload new photos to my stream of photos and other devices that use this service.

    If you want to only download to your Mac, use the web interface to access iCloud photo library from the Web browser and do not allow any iCloud photo library on your Mac.

    Open the web Page www.icloud.com and sign one of your iCloud Apple ID.  Then launch the Photos.app on this web page.  Now open the album pictures and click "Select". Select all the pictures, and then click Download.

    To select all photos click on the first picture of the beach, hold down the shift button, scroll to the last picture and select it.

  • How to remove photos from iphone, but no computer and icloud?

    I want to delete the photos from my iphone, but keep them in my computer and my icloud. I want to have more space in my iphone.

    If you have iCloud enabled library, all the photos that you delete from your phone will be deleted to iCloud and other devices connected to this library to iCloud. The more you can do to reduce storage required on the phone is to activate settings > iCloud > Photos > optimize iPhone storage.

    Apple does not currently cloud storage options only. You can suggest that more options are available through http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html

  • My Satellite L30-101/XP sound comes from headphones but not pregnant

    I have a black XP newly installed on my system and installed everything except the sound does not come from the speakers but when I use headphones sound works perfectly. I thought it was problem with XP, so I then installed Vista but still the same problem.

    Then I went back to XP because I'm more comfortable with it.

    PLS HELP >

    Hmm. Maybe there is something wrong with the speaker system?
    I mean if you can hear the sound using headphones then your sound driver and sound card should work properly.

    Did you also check the settings in Realtek HD audio Manager?
    On the right, you can find the settings for the helmet. Please check what options is enabled or disabled.

  • Home network Windows 7 and XP: can map drives etc network but not to synchronize OneNote

    Hi all

    I have a Windows 7 laptop and a desktop XP SP3, all connected with happiness to a wireless router. On both machines, I have the very underrated and generally wonderful notes 2007, which I rely on for the study. I'm reasonably texh-savvy, but I don't know what I don't know, so it is very likely I missed something very obvious.

    I can update my OneNote notebooks on the Win 7 to XP machine fine machine, but the Win 7 machine does not update the notebooks on my XP machine without asking for a password.

    I checked the following:

    • They both share the same group, the WORKING group.
    • The OneNote Notebooks folder properties have 'action' and 'allow other users to update' boxes ticked on the tab share
    • The Windows 7 laptop can 'see' the Office XP on the network, but by double-clicking on the icon on desktop XP asks for a password
    • When you look at the map of the network, the XP machine is nestled on the corner and not shown to be 'joined' to the router
    • Portable Win 7 I can map a network drive by using the IP address to a shared folder on the XP machine and move files without any problem
    • "File and Printer Sharing" on the Panel of control-> connections-> 'Properties of the wireless network' network is checked
    • Both machines have static IP addresses
    • I don't put passwords for each machine
    • My computer-> tools-> Folder Options-> enable Simple file sharing is checked
    • Guest account is enabled on the XP machine
    • Password protected sharing is DISABLED on the Win 7 machine

    I suspect that there is something that I have not checked/unchecked somewhere on my XP machine.

    Why is the Win 7 computer phone harassment me a password when you try to synchronize a OneNote or click the icon under 'network '?

    Y at - it an exhaustive list of things that I should check or an article somewhere that covers this? I googled loads, but only have mounted artuicles cloud sharing with OneNote 2010 and sharing of files between Windows 7 and XP, nothing on a password is requested during the synchronization of the OneNote files!

    Thanks in advance for your help. I know the legacy tech support is a royal PITA, and I promise you that I will be upgrading to a more sensitive setting when I have the dosh, but in the meantime, I would appreciate some advice! :)

    Hi dogsolitude_uk,

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Follow the steps in the article.

    Networking of computers running different versions of Windows

    Method 2: Temporarily disable the security software.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable the antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network at the time the anti-virus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
