How can I keep my dock icons open the browser to move overtime, they reduce to the minimum
Hi guys
Browser icons that represent the open browser windows in the dock move to the right, after they are reduced to a minimum. I would like that they to minimize in the same place every time. Is this possible?
Thank you!
Hello hectc7,
If you wish to have your windows minimize, in the same place on the dock, whenever you might consider enabling the option reduce Windows in the system preferences application icon > Dock.
Minimize windows in the application icon
Reduce a window of the app to the app icon in the Dock. If the option is disabled, the window is reduced to an area at the end of the dock.

How can I restore my desktop icons and the taskbar icons
I tried to open a file with a program's .lnk and her was not recognized in the program, and now my desktop icons and my icons to the taskbar was converted into icons for the program. How to get this back? I need to know how to do this in Windows 7.
[Moved from comments]
There are some patches for the issue that you siding, but most of them requires registry changes that I do not say that they can cause several other problems. I recommend that you perform a system restore.
There are two ways to perform the system restore:
Menu start open, click Run and type cmd to open the command prompt.
Type CD... to book only c:\.
Type windows CD then CD System32, and then restore.
After once, you'll find yourself in c:\ windows\system32\restore >
Type restrui.exe press ENTER.
Once the system restore the open window then click on next to select any available restore point.
This process takes a few minutes to do the restore and please make sure that once this process has begun there wont be reversible and or you will lose all personal data.
Another way to perform the system restore is to open the safe mode by clicking on F8 at startup and check the option of safe mode, then still a dialog box opens to ask the system restore and then follow the steps above.

Mixture of Photoshop mobile app. How can you save an edited photo in the same file as the original?
Hey there Mopi2!
Currently, there is no way to save your new image instead of the original image. For now, you need to manually delete the original. It is however a great request! Please share with the team by typing "give us feedback" in the app menu (tap on the app icon in the upper left corner of the screen while inside the app).
Let me know if that helps!

I received a prompt on my Ipod touch 5th generation yesterday, that there is a new update of the Messenger application. So I tried to update, however, the app is now stuck on the phase "Waiting."... "and the logo has been disabled. I still get notifications of new messages from the app, but I can't open. I tried to remove and then reinstall the application but the application did not and the app store think that I always opened it. How can I fix this or return to the previous edition that worked?
Thank you in advance!
Hello cfossum,
Looks like you have problems with a third party on your iPod touch app, since the Messages belongs to iOS and you would receive separate not quickly update.
The resources below will provide some troubleshooting steps for the problem you are having with the Messenger application.
If an application you have installed unexpectedly closes, unresponsive, or does not open
Take care.
