How can I get my computer to read pdf files?
My computer has stopped to read Adobe pdf files. I get a box of Conversion of Microsoft Word files that asks if I want to use default Windows, MS DOS or other encoding to read the file, but nothing works. I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader X on my PC Dell/Windows Vista, but that did not help.
You start Reader and click file > open to select the file you want to open...

How can I get firefox to open a pdf file in adobe instead of the new pdf reader?
Before the recent update, 19.0, I google something and see [PDF] next to a link. I click the Center button to open it in a new tab. Firefox might download the file and open it with Adobe Reader. I like this.
With the new update 19.0, the pdf file would open in the new tab. I have to down load it and then open it in Adobe. I don't like this.
I'm going to preferences under applications. I look to see if I can change that. Next to document Adobe Reader, I choose to use Adobe Reader, but when I click on a link [PDF], it always opens the file in Firefox and not Adobe.
I want to go back to the way it was.
Problem: Open a pdf file in Firefox, he wants to save the file.
Remedy:
In Firefox, tools, Options, choose the column on the left (Content Type) Applications tab, select Portable Document Format (pdf). Right column (Action) choose Preview in Firefox.
I use Firefox 21.0.

When I first installed Firefox 19, the PDF Viewer worked so well that I uninstalled Adobe Reader. Today, after an update system, Firefox stopped display local PDF. If I open a PDF file directly from a Web site, the internal PDF Viewer active and the PDF file is displayed correctly. However, if I open a PDF to my hard drive, Firefox just displays a mass of confused characters and the internal PDF Viewer does not work.
Here is a screenshot of the behavior: http://i.imgur.com/5Of0kUH.png
I tried to start in safe mode and the behaviour persisted. I really hope there is a fix for this, because the use of Firefox to view PDF files is really much better my workflow.
EDIT - SOLUTION IN RESPONSE
SOLUTION
- In the terminal, type: # firefox - ProfileManager
- Create a new profile.
- Start with the profile said.
- Fixed. Internal PDF Viewer now works in a profile.

Computer crashed
New hard drive in my HP laptop
Computer is not reading my SD card
Hello
Make sure the SD card works on other computers.
The card reader is a USB device to ensure that other USB devices work.
Check with HP, their drivers support and documentation online and ask in the forums of HP where it
others will be with the same or similar model. I hope this is just the driver. It is possible that the device has been
back not connected properly or even damaged when installing the new hard drive.Support HP & drivers

Original title: I need a market to resolve the problem remove the instrument.
How can I get my computer my external USB drive (portfolio) after that I repeatedly get the message that the device "can not be removed? I have closed all other programs and waited for varying amounts of time, and tried all of the fixes that have been proposed on this site. Nothing works. I don't want to turn off the computer whenever I have to remove the device.
I can't know what "all patches" you've tried, but:
Make sure that the system restore does not monitor the external drive. SR does need to control the system drive and to the system drive, SR has only about 1 GB of space max. Make a right click my computer and select properties then the System Restore tab to configure SR.
Make sure that the Indexing Service is turned off (at least for the external drive). To disable disk indexing completely, which will also speed up your computer a bit, see http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp. For the external drive, right-click on the drive icon in my computer, select properties and uncheck the indexing disc
There are different workarounds short to shut down the computer, but you might want to try this third-party app first:
http://safelyremove.com/index.html Among other features:The device cannot be stopped now. Why? Never encountered the situation when Windows does not allow you to remove a device? Unlike Windows, USB remove will show you programs which prevent the device to be stopped and let you close these programs or just files that they opened on the device.

How can I get my computer vista email to say "you have a message?
Its depends on your email program. If you are using software such as Microsoft Office Outlook e-mail, then when you have received a new email it will notify you.
For webamil, you could connect to your email address, and then drag the window and PIN to the taskbar to alert you to new e-mail.

How can I get my computer to automatically connect to the internet? Currently, I have to press Fn F1 to activate the WLAN - not something huge, but a tad boring. Another computer on the same network will connect automatically in setting in motion.It is a 'feature' of the particular computer you are using. Take a look at the manual; It may be a setting in the BIOS to turn on the wireless on startup.

Original title: the file format of external hard drive is the RAW and not NTFS. How can I get Windows 7 to read RAW hard drives without having to format the hard drive due to important work on this subject?
I put the hard drive on an XP and Vista machine and can read the hard drive, but not with Windows 7
Hi Zling,
It works on other OS? When did you finally read the disc and with what OS? If you can read the drive and make a backup of the data on this subject, I you suggest to backup the data on the drive and then put it in using the NTFS file system.
I hope this helps! Shawn - Support Engineer - MCP, MCDST

How can I get my computer to use my second drive?
I went to my computer and saw that I have 2 hard drives, each written that they have about 70 GB. Is this really true I have 140 GB in total? If so, how can I get my computer to use my other drive. I'm sorry if I wrote it in the wrong section.
Hello Mathieu,
Yes, there is a way, but there are "attacking" the drive so that the computer knows where it is. Who also encourages you to understand how you want to use the drive. Most people put their operating system and programs on a disk, the disk 'C' (C:\BootDrive would be an example) and to put their data on a second disk, the disk "D" files (D:\DataDrive would be an example).
Once you've got it organized on paper (or in your head), to be labelled and / or format the drive. You can use the mechanism in the post following blue microwave, or you can use the freeware Aomei Partition Assistant application, which will be the ID and label and / or format your drive, according to what is needed. Download the app here: http://download.cnet.com/AOMEI-Partition-Assistant-Standard-Edition/3000-18512_4-75118871.html?tag=mncol;1 (only use the Direct download link).
Once installed, you select the drive in question and select Properties, which will tell you the status of your order and options to your need to work with her. For example, if its not allocated, you will need to return it, format it and assign a drive letter. Or he may have already assigned a drive letter and just need to be formatted to be used. Or it may be already in. The program will tell you what you have and what you need to do as your next step.
Let me know what instructions to proceed to the next step.
Kind regards
