  • How to return to windows 7

    Windows 8 has so many problems with my laptop and I want to go back to windows 7, especially because the preview has expired and it is time, I herd you need a disc my father back creates a with his laptop which is different than mine could I use it? If not what are the steps because I have no backup discs

    You must make a return on factory reset. Note that if you save all the important things, it will be lost after the reset.

    Your computer is equipped with a recovery instead of disk partition...

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For LG, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    For Samsung, press F4 to the power upward...

    For Fujitsu, press the F8 key directly after the power

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    Sony VAIO, reboot and press "F8" or "F10" repeatedly until the screen "Advanced Boot Options".

    You may need to try several times to get everything above to work. If after several attempts, you have no chance, or the machine indicates that there is no recovery partition, your only option is to contact the computer manufacturer and ask for the model recovery discs...

    After the reset, you should get all the updates from Windows Update EXCEPT for hardware devices. Then, you install a good antivirus. ONLY AFTER you have done this, if you replace the stuff of backups or install anything else.

  • Satellite L755 - how to return to Windows 7 using the HDD Recovery folder

    Hello
    are how you today

    I own a toshiba Satellite L755.
    I have recently upgraded to windows 7 to windows 8, and now I do not have windows 8. I want to go back to windows 7.

    Many people say that it is possible using the HDD Recovery folder that I have on my D drive and it s 13.5 GB.

    What I need is to know if its possible and if you can you explain to me how its done.

    I searched the Web for an answer for tha last 4 hours and I thank you

    > Many people say that it is possible using the HDD Recovery folder that I have on my D drive and it s 13.5 GB

    A lot of people said you can use HARD drive recovery in order to put the system back to factory settings.
    This true s but this is possible ONLY if the system has not been modified.

    In case you have changed the system, you could go back to the factory settings using the recovery disk!
    Recovery disk may be created using the preinstalled tool called Toshiba Recovery Media Creator.

    Have you created this disc in the past!

  • How to return to Windows 8 Preview Release to Windows 7?

    I have a Lenovo Ideapad that can factory stocked with Windows 7 Home Edition 64-bit, so I don't have the original dvd to replace my Windows 8 Preview version. Their must be a way for me to format and do a clean install of my original Windows 7, right? I have a series of DVDs that I created to boot from in case of a problem, although I'm not sure that these backups will contain the Windows 7 operating system. The worst part is that my Western Digital external hard drive is not recognized by Windows 8 Preview Release, so frustrating. Help, please

    1. call Lenovo, ask a Disks.The recovery set charge for all is small and it's money well spent.
    At the same time, ask to speak to a technician. Ask technology to teach you how to use the recovery discs.
    This method does not require you to enter the product key.

    2. an alternative is to re - install your Windows 7 running by downloading Windows 7 iso, burn it to a bootable DVD with software like Imgburn.
    If you choose this method, you must have your Win 7 Home OEM product key.

    There is that a single legitimate source to download Win 7 ISO.  It is Digital River which is supported and recognized by Microsoft.

    Make sure you only select the iso 64-bit.

  • How to return to Windows Media Player 10?

    I am running Windows XP Media Center Edition. I want to install adriver for a Creative Zen Touch MP3 player. This operation requires me to go back to Windows Media Player 10, but I can't understand how do. I tried turning on Windows Media Player 11 and Windows Media Player 10, but when I tried to install it, the installation program has recognized the updated version and completed.

    I need to install a driver because the software does not recognize the drive when it is connected.

    =================================
    OK... but why must it be recognized? Is it
    in order to copy MP3 files to MP3 player?

    If you connect the MP3 player and go to my computer
    It can be recognized as a removable drive... If this is the case, you
    can add files from there, and no driver is required.

  • Problems 8.1 of Windows and how to return to Windows 8?

    Hello

    After updating my windows 8 for windows 8.1, I faced a lot of problems. Now, I don't know what my current version of windows. It's because I cancel the installation before you do. I don't know if my version of windows change or not.  When I watch the news of the PC, it shows Windows 8 unique language. FYI, I got the update for windows 8.1 in apps store.

    The problem I faced is I couldn't access my apps store, but now I managed to get working again. But I can still install anything on my PC. The error message appeared again and again. I can download update/nothing at all. Second, I couldn't access my other applications (music, video, games, camera, XBOX and others). I tried a lot of solution in the net, but it doesn't seem to be working. Then, before updating the windows, I downloaded the apps store games, but after that I have cannot access this game more. I also faced a problem that I could not launched Chrome on windows mode 8.

    Is there a method to fix it? Or can I just go back to Windows 8 back again? Show me the way, please. Or I need to format it?

    Really need your help.
    Thank you!

    Hi John the Baptist.

    You will need to perform the refresh without affecting your files. Refresh your PC reinstall Windows and keep your personal files and settings. It also keeps the applications provided with your PC and applications that you have installed in the Windows store.

    You need to install the printer drivers and once antivirus after refresh. As I mentioned, it's the same that reinstall Windows keeping your personal files and settings.

    For more information, you can consult the following Microsoft Help article.

    Please do not hesitate to visit our Web site for any help with the Windows operating system.

  • How to return to windows installer? Bootcamp

    After my bootcamp partition, the computer has been restarted with the windows installer. I got to the part that says select partition to install windows. I read the message that he is not the right format requires NTFS. Well, I clicked format and it made me nervous because he said that he would erase everything. So I closed out of the installer to see after some research, I actually just click on the format button. My question is, is there anyway I can go back to where I run the windows 10 installation to install or I have to delete my bootcamp partition and completely from the beginning.

    It depends on your year/model of Mac. If a USB Installer has been created or a DVD has been used, there is no need to recreate the partition. In the case of 2015 Mac, you need to remove the partition and recreate. Please create a partition of sufficient size (about 50-60GB) to avoid future problems.

  • How can I remove the originals, I don't like to take when importing from a SD card?

    Hi all

    Just installed LR3 with Santa. Have been going through the videos and the Lightroom_3_Help PDF and PDF of Lightroom-GettingStarted_Lo but I can not understand how to remove files from the gitgo simply importing from an SD card or from my HARD drive (files already moved on the HARD drive but not yet slaughtered or imported into LR3). I was hoping that I could, at the LIBRARY, just r/c on a file that isn't obviously useful to keep and just remove it so I mustn't do it later. Looks like I could, thus, be able to focus more on the shots requiring a change.

    Also, need suggestions as to how I would like to import my files using the DNG, Copy, Move, or Add. First off, I'm not a pro at work but am an occasional serious amateur. I'm picky and I like things look the first time and I like options.  The pix already on my HARD drive is in the IMAGES folder. those that are imported from the SD card are transferred to the PHOTO folder. I have, in the past, moved the verssions transformed to another DESTINATION folder - now I still have the originals and I've dealt with copies to show and share.

    I understand that LR3 don't ND edition but I guess that if I don't keep a DNG so anytime I want a JPEG or PNG image that I open LR3 to make a. Since I've been taking a few hundred pix per year (although this will change with my new D5000) I won't load to the top of my HARD drive any time soon. So, is there a way I can make a DNG file, keep the original RAW or JPEG file AND save a JPEG or PNG copy turned in my DESTINATION folder in one swell foop?

    Thanks in advance,

    Phil in San Diego

    There is no need to delete the source; Select the photos you want to copy the source into your library and apply metadata and keywords that apply to all, then back up the photos that are now in the library, and then only have to format the SD card. Using this method, you will never have to worry about the photos of the source should be deleted, you simply focus on which those that are imported. Your also always make sure to have two copies of your work at all times and consider make a third copy you should kee off site to maximize the availability of your data disaster (and don't foget the catalogue Lightroom itself!).

  • Your last update won't let me connect on Yahoo Messenger. No problem with IE. How can I fix it? I don't like the updates that are causing problems. If it isn't broken don't fix it

    I am unable to use Yahoo Messenger when connected to Firefox. Mail works but not the Messenger. I received notice of message, but when I try to open the message and answer, nothing happens. Or to start a conversation. I tried to use IE and all Yahoo services work fine, so the problem is with your last update. I want to reinstall the previous version. You should not automatically updated versions if problems of this kind will happen. Please respond with a fix.

    A light 'work around' If you know what the contact to discuss with you...

    Keep a tab of discussion open for them. If there is already a tab open, chat works very well.

    When you click on their name, two tabs will appear - one showing a constant loading "dial". Close that one. Then just keep the other open tab.

    I know it's not practical if you have many contacts who chat with you, but if you have just a couple, it's at least a possibility to discuss with them by E-mail.

  • How can I return to the old preferences window? I don't like the new tab.

    I used to be able to click: Firefox-> Preferences and get the window preferably. Firefox Preferences now opens as a tab. I don't know how or why it changed. But I don't like. How can I go back to the old way to open the preference window?

    Hi, I'm not familiar with Mac, but I think it should work - it does in Windows: Type Subject: config in the address bar, press ENTER, accept the warning, scroll to browser.preferences.inContent and double-click on it to change the "value" from true to False, taking care to not to change what anyone else. You will then need to restart Firefox.
