  • Erase a disc from VMs

    This can be covered somewhere, but Googling that it evokes irrelavent pages.

    I was installing Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop on a virtual computer, and halfway through the installation process, the machine suddenly turned off automatically.  Now when I turn it on, it just sits there.

    How can I erase the drive for the virtual machine so that I can try reinstalling Ubuntu?  I don't want to waste his time with the creation of new virtual machines or change disks.

    Kind regards

    Rob.

    You install from CDROM?

    Turn on the virtual machine and press the ESC key to start the virtual machine. This should show you the start menu where you can select the boot device.

    It doesn't have an operating system to work, just the firmware. If he tries always to start (for example, the startup chime), turn the power off, press and hold the trackpad in the down position, then press the power switch. That force - eject anything in the optical drive.

    Hello

    You can't reinstall Vista on a recovery partition you have installed another operating system

    read this:

    Solve a common problem of recovery.
    If the original operating system is changed to a non - Vista OS, the Recovery Manager cannot be launched either office or by pressing f11 at startup. You can use the recovery disk to restore the computer to the original state of Vista. If you are using a non - Vista OS, you can use a third-party partition management program to recover hard disk space.

    ________________________________________________________

    Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    you say, that they will not!

    ________________________________________________________

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

  • How can I transfer photos from film on iPad mini iMac

    I have pictures on my camera iPad mini roll which do not seem to have been downloaded on my iMac.

    I often will have pictures from an Sd Card (with adapters) or wifi from my camera to my iPad but not, when I got home, of course to my iMac.

    I need to make room on my iPad how do I transfer it to my iMac.  (I'm still under Maverick, I know!    iPad ISO9.2.1 running)

    I do not use the cloud to store my photos just transfer them via the photo stream.

    The photos are not all on my photo gallery. The photos will go back two years. !

    I recently activated photo stream (October, last year) photos to transfer photos from my iMac iPhoto events if some are OK. I used the info forum to delete several of these photos.

    To check if I remove a photo from my roll of picture on my iPad, it is not deleted from my iMac, correct?  and according to the original question, I need to transfer photos to my iMac.

    IF you have photos that have not been transferred to the Mac because they predate photo stream, you can import them from the film by connecting the iPad to Mac with the cable and launch iPhoto or Image Capture. Your iPad must appears as a device in the left of either of the two apps bar and you will be able to import photos and then delete them from the iPad if you want to do.

    As long as the photos have been imported to the Mac, you can delete them from the camera without them being removed from the Mac.

  • 1st issue of the day. How to save an image from a USB on my iMac

    Photo, happy editing, now I want to save on a USB key so you can take it and print the image.

    First of all you should crop the report for printing you want done (eg. 6 x 4, 8 x 10, etc.)

    Then you select the thumbnail and click [export]

    Find more export options,

    And finally click [export] at the bottom of the export dialog window.

    You can learn all the options in the export dialog with time, but for now, do something like the below screenclip -.

    Export to a folder on the hard-drive drive - you can copy it to the USB - stick later. Or you can select the USB if you click in the "Place of export" Panel > set it to specific folder > [choose]

    Use the screenclip settings (and the closed signs should be "empty" or any option not set)

    After an export success, you could save this dialog with these settings as a preset by clicking the [Add] button state will be visible in the corner at the bottom left.
