• How to fix font changes when you download a PDF document?

  When you download some PDF documents, the font is changed.  I tried several solutions troubleshooting, but my issue was not resolved.  What can I do to prevent this from happening, or if it does, to address the problem?

  Hi MissFaye2u,

  When the PDF is created creator add fonts rare to the same layout on creator system. But if the fonts are not included this problem may occur.

  Cleaning a compromised system

  Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) will NOT fix it!

  HOW to do a clean install of Win7: see "using the custom installation option" and formatting the hard drive section of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Installing-and-reinstalling-Windows-7

  NOTE: If your computer came with a set of disks, there is a hidden partition restore (not to be confused with the restoration of the system) you would use to do the clean install (AKA a "destructive recovery").

  After the new installation, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of EVERYTHING on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) AND BEFORE to plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external drive to the computer otherwise:

  IMPORTANT! -Online any Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the removal tool appropriate before installing updates or IE upgrades AND BEFORE installing your new anti-virus application.

  If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility.

  I have gived upward with this problem when I found a solution.
  I uninstalled IE8, restarted the PC,
  Initially, the problem continues, but after about 5 minutes with the PC and opening folders,
  then the Runtime error 216 has DISAPPEARED forever.
  I ve due to the help of Internet Explorer 6.
  However, I Don t know if the problem would be to reinstall Internet Explorer 8.

  Repeat the 3 steps:

  Reboot 2)
  (3) use PC normally, in a 15-minute error will disappear.
  Don't forget: Error 216 doesn´t dissapers inmediatelly.

• How to fix the "stutter" when you use the YouTube widget

  I use the YouTube widget that comes with 8 Captivate, and it works almost perfectly.  The only problem is it is hard noticeable half a second to load and e-Learning "flashes".  I tried to put a screen behind the YouTube thumbnail widget, but that seems to flicker as well...

  Does anyone have experience with this problem?

  Thank you!!

  Try it on a server and see if it still does the same thing. I only worry about this if it does not work in the environment that the course will finally reach.

  Hello

  Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forums.

  I see you've found an error "file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action" when you click office and recent places.

  1. Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
  2. What is the full error message?

  I suggest you to report to us the screenshot of the Advanced window so that we can understand what exactly the situation.
  
  See:

  http://social.technet.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/w7itproui/thread/4fc10639-02dB-4665-993a-08d865088d65

  The average while you can try the following steps and check if the error reappears.

  Method 1:

  Step 1:

  Start the computer in safe mode and check the number.

  Some options, including the mode safe mode, start Windows in a limited State, where only the essential is started. If a problem doesn't reappear when you start in safe mode, you can eliminate the default settings and basic device drivers and services as a possible cause.

  Follow this link provided below to start your computer in safe mode.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

  Step 2:

  Put the computer to boot and check if the problem persists.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 3 of the KB article provided above.

  Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

  It will be useful.

  Trash this stage and re - register. It could be that new file dialog tries to assign a document profile that is damaged or is no longer present on your system. If this does not work, reset the Photoshop preferences. Press ctrl + alt + shift at the launch, confirm with the dialog box that appears if you did it correctly.

  Make sure to save all your other actions, brushes and so on first!

  Shares usually work between different versions, but if certain parameters have changed they may fail right there.

  Is it possible to go to the secure area in Business catalyst when you have a creative cloud subscription, or do I need a subscription of BC?

  Securezones on Web sites are nothing to do with your BC OR login your cloud login creation.

  A securezone on a website is to secure content and customer CRM with user name and password on this website with access and a login to access this content if they are assigned to one area.

  If you create an account of BC and you talk to develop sites using Adobe Business Catalyst, then it will be at some point to synchronize/merge prompt your creative cloud account.
