  • How to join start in safe mode when the mouse does not work?

    (I'm on another computer to ask this question). I'm in safe mode; mouse does not work; arrow keys work but don't go to 'start '. How to get started?

    Assuming you have the office showing with all applications minimized or closed, Tab or F6 should pass the Start button and a few other "elements" on the taskbar.  Look closely and you will see a light preview highlighting of the selected item.  Press the Enter key to activate it.

    In XP Safe Mode, the cycle is start button > Quick Launch toolbar > [of any application taskbar icon] > clock > desktop icons.  While the Quick Launch toolbar is highlighted, the arrows move among the icons in the QL toolbar.  While the desktop icon is highlighted, the arrow keys will be touring all the desktop icons.

  • installed the latest updates of windows 7... now the computer does not recognize my video files avi... says "format not supported".

    I have installed the latest updates (02/27/10) and when I open sony vegas to edit some files avi... they were offline... when I tried to read with windows media player it says format not supported... before when I played these files, they would not have to synchronize audio... it never happened with my other computer with Vista... system restore solved the problem of format not supported... but so far has caused this problem? and what about the problems of synchronization? the files seem to sync when played with the hp program...

    Hi derlonewolf,
     
    Because you performed a System Restore you would not be able to determine which update problem from occurring. You will have to wait for the update to your computer to determine the update that caused the problem. The update does not necessarily cause the problem to occur again. However, you can view the history of updates to updating history.
     
    1. open the control panel (all items view), and click the Windows Update icon.
     
    2. click on the link to view update history.
     
    3. to view the details of a single Windows Update-
     
    (A) select and right-click on a Windows Update list, and then click details.
     
    (B) click on close when finished.
     
    As far as the question of timing is concerened, you can scan SFC on your computer and check if the problem persists.

    Steps to perform a scan SFC:
     
    1. Click Start, click principally made programs, accessories, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow
     
    2. type the following command and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow
    [The command sfc /scannow. analysis of all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.]
     
    A message appears indicating that "the system scan will start. Be patient, because the analysis may take some time
     
    3. If all the files require that a SFC replace will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Win7 DVD for this process to continue
     
    4. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.
     
    5. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.
     
    Check the link below for further guidance on scan SFC - mentioned
     
    You can also make manual updates instead of automatic updates and then see what are updates will be installed on the computer.

  • OfficeJet 6600: access code to the printer does not work

    Hello

    My printer used to be connected to my computer. The computer must be repaired, and I don't have the software to print on it. I downloaded it and I thought that I had everything set up, but when I try to connect my printer to the laptop computer he asked the password that I entered, and it isn't right now. It is also connected to a Windows 7 and works very well with this one.

    Hi @camicam,

    Remember that the password is case-sensitive. If you have not made any changes to your wireless password and you are unable to connect the printer to your wireless network, I suggest communicating with your router or your ISP (Internet Service Provider).

    Thank you

    Hey @Manu37520,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you have some problems with the scanning of your PSC 2210 all-in-one printer to your PC for Windows 10. The printer has no drivers for Windows 10. You will need to use a computer with an operating system prior to analyze.

  • Code of the button does not work.

    Hello

    I have a box Rectangle called (Panel1_mc). And in it, there is a button named (BoardMessage1_btn). When I click on this button, the Rectange Panel must move upward. At this time the rectangle box is at the bottom of the page. The following code throws an error 1010:

    Panel1_mc. BoardMessage1_btn.addEventListener (mouse, Event.CLICK, clickSection);
    function clickSection(evtObj:MouseEvent) {}
    var Panel1Tween:TweenMax = new TweenMax (Panel1_mc, 6, {y: 450, delay: 1, ease:Strong.easeOut});})
    }

    What's wrong with this code? Help, please. Using Flash CS4 AS3.

    Kind regards.

    With the exception of the space in "Mouse event", which is probably a copy paste the problem with these forums, there is nothing wrong with the code.  So your problem likely lies elsewhere than the code itself.

  • How export/import prefs.js? Copy of the file does not work

    I want to export/import on: configuration changes. The path is "Firefox/Profiles/i63866ho.default-1384517947097/prefs-js". I also copied prefs.js, all the contents of the file "i63866ho.default - 1384517947097" and the folder "Profiles". Nothing has worked. When I copied prefs.js he did nothing and returns to the old/first prefs.js after restarting firefox. When I copy the file it says that it cannot do.

    Can someone help me?

    Thank you very much

    I'm not very familiar with profiles.ini. There are probably other volunteers who can tell you the best way to add the new (old) profile name to the file.

    The prefs.js file is small, but you mentioned the copy of your extensions as well, so I thought it would be more convenient copy the entire folder. I think that if you can afford the disk space, it is easier to grasp this. That said, some of the information is redundant with, for example, the bookmarkbackups folder contains many safeguards dated (mine are over 1 MB). If you use download sites that use IndexedDB (such as the mega), can have a very large folder indexedDB that you really don't need to carry with you.

    How can I set up Vista so that the PC does not switch to another window (for example the Spy Sweeper alerts) while I am playing a game?

    Vista is not in control of this technique. Spy Sweeper needs to have an option to control that. If this isn't the case, then it is badly programmed. Flight of focus (go to another window) when it is actually needed is a big no-no for the design. I find this option, if I were you :)

    Hey JDub,

    Please contact Microsoft Community Forum!

    This issue would have occurred after you installed, uninstalled or updated a program or Windows.

    19 code means there is a driver conflict such as two devices attempt to use the same resources.

    When you say "unable to set Troubleshooting" what Troubleshooter you are referring to?

    You can try the steps from the following link and check:

  • Satellite T135 how to enter Safe Mode and HDD Recovery if 'F8' does not work

    Hello everyone

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite T135 and it crashed recently. Since then, whenever I turn it on, startup repair is enabled automatically. But it does not fix the error.
    I tried to solve the problem with the system restore, but that no longer works. So I think I have to go through the procedure of HARD drive recovery.

    The problem is that I have a lot of data on my laptop that I must first of all safe. I wanted to do it via Safe Mode that supposedly, I should be able to enter by pressing "F8" at initialization, when the Windows logo appears. But my laptop is not responding when I press F8, but rather getting a sound alert, if I press the button for a long time.

    Apart from how to enter safe mode by pressing F8 during initialization does not work, I have a second question: Toshiba Recovery Wizard is the equivalent for the HDD recovery procedure? It is the only similar option that I could find...

    Thank you very much for your advice.

    Hello

    The recovery of HARD drive installs the image of Toshiba.
    The image is the package that contains the operating system, drivers and all the tools that have been installed on the first day of purchase; simply said; using HARD drive recovery you would set the laptop back to factory settings.

    You want to save the date before you install the operating system once more?
    Well, remove the HARD drive, put this in a USB HDD enclosure and move the file to the HARD drive to another computer.
    It would be the best way to get the file save.
