  • Computer does not recognize sansa fuze

    I have my fuse sansa for over a year and no problems, but now I'm trying to plug it in (to add songs), but it shuts down and the computer does not recognize it. I formatted, but still once, nothing happened.

    I want to continue my membership with Adobe, however, not if it requires some additional software purchase.

  • How install .man files or other files that Windows does not recognize?

    I found my own answer. I write just in case someone else has a similar problem.

    I tried to install the software on my computer that was supposed to be a "msi" file and installed as a file ".man". Basically, Windows does not recognize some types of codes that install files can install as. Microsoft Help and chat live did not help, so I called my dad and the solution is relatively simple: change the type of file manually.

    1) go to control panel

    (2) search of Folder Options and open it.

    (3) uncheck Hide file extensions

    (4) go to which the file was saved (make a copy of it to the case where)

    (5) change the endpoint in .msi or your type of file of choice

    6} window opens asking if you want to change the file type, and then click ok.

    I hope this helps someone as lost as I was!

    Thank you

    Bradley

    Well, .man is not a valid file for installers type, so now the question is why the hell gave you a .man as installation file first. You can inform the place you have setup of.

    Or... it may be interesting to try to install Windows Live Movie Maker...
