How to use the windows 8 messaging app

Hey

I have several family members and friends using windows 8 and what I want to do is add to the mail app so that we can discuss. I see when I go in there I can add people using the windows live Messenger service? I would add other windows 8 users too this list so I can chat with them.

The problem is that the only way I can add people is via Facebook and I do not have Facebook. This app is designed only for Facebook?

Kind regards

Chris

FYI the Messenger App was removed from Windows 8.1 and replaced by Skype. It's probably just a matter before being replaced in Windows 8.0. Hope this helps and if you need another post to help and we will be happy to help you.

    How use the windows fax machine, and how can I open an administrator account?

    Original title: activateadministratoraccount

    Hello

    Thanks for your posting in the Microsoft community

    Well, you can enable the administrator account hidden instead of an account

    You can make the win + r and write lusrmgr.msc in the start search box or in the command run and pressing ENTER. Or, you could open the computer by right clicking on computer management in the start menu and select manage.

    Expand System Tools > local users and groups > users.

    Right-click the administrator account, and then select "Set password".

    In the 'set password' click 'continue '.

    In the "set password" enter the password of the administrator twice, then click on 'Ok '.

    Then, activate the administrator account. Right click on the administrator account and select "Properties".

    n check the box "account is disabled". Click on the Ok"" button.

    Hello

    1. create a property file (this example is relevant if you have a repository of ORACLE, you can find more information in http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_hp_admin/frameset.htm?ch09s01s01.html]):

    SOURCE_APP_JDBC_PASSWORD = schemaPassword
    SOURCE_APP_JDBC_DATABASE_TYPE = ORA
    SOURCE_APP_OLAP_SERVER = olapServerName:port
    SOURCE_APP_OLAP_USERNAME = olapUserName

    2. open CMD and type copyapp /S:yourSourceAppName T:yourTargetAppName P:yourPropertiesFileName.properties /L:yourLogFileName.log

    Once the migration has been successful, you must update your users using the UpdateUsers.cmd (UpdateUsers.cmd and PlanningUserName PlanningUserPassword TARGET_APP).

  • How to use the Windows character map with the Arc keyboard?

    When I "Select" and "Copy to Clipboard" character as a checkbox and then enter any rich text field, it is for some unknown reason, out with the bad temper, that I did not choose. I don't think it's related to the Arc keyboard fault, since I do it only with my mouse ArcTouch.

    My "copy to clipboard" feature has always worked well in the past until I installed this Arc keyboard and the copy function continues to operate properly with anything but Windows XP Pro SP3 32 Character Map.

    So I want to try to enter a character by typing the standard code for the character... but the Arc keyboard doesn't have a "Numlock", because it does not have a dedicated digital keyboard and by the statement, you cannot use the number keys "at the top".
    "Product Guide" for the Arc keyboard is not very useful except on how to plug it in 28 languages.
    Is there a work around these two examples?
    Thank you.

    Someone told me that you can not add whatever it is wiped from the map of characters in a field of type text such as Notepad, that she must be rich text applicable as Wordpad. Not true..., I guess?
    Oh well, it's here where I got to go to... [Is it safe? [I'm going to cross that off my list].

    I forgot to say in the last post, & slipped a character of the fonts map does not either, on most of the trials if he drag & drop is of course the bad character and it is not just "Wingdings", but several I tried.

    When you say "characters in some fonts like"Wingdings"and"Symbol"will not display properly if changed to a different font - even if the code is correct."

    Can you help me understand what that means or how that could happen or what I can do to change the font?

    When I choose a check mark in the Wingdings font and then enter it here, it's: [u]. I don't know I wasn't looking to change police in Wingdings to something else between selecting and placing it here.

  • How to use the windows firewall, to block the software on my computer to access internet

    When my computer is connected to the internet, other software installed on my computer connect to the internet without my knowledge. I want to stop this and want windows firewall to ask me whenever a program tries to connect to the internet. Please help me

    It will take some serious reading on your part.

    You can configure the Vista Firewall to be a two-way firewall; and it's very good.

    Read all the info in the link below:

    http://articles.TechRepublic.com.com/5100-10878_11-6098592.html

    At first glance, the Vista firewall seems to be identical to the Windows Firewall in Windows XP SP 2. But once you learn the secret to access its configuration settings advanced through the MMC snap-in, you will be able to configure and customize outbound and inbound rules to adapt to your specific needs.

  • Pavilion dm4-3090se: how to use the SSD after restoration of the system of Windows backup disks?

    Hello

    After a lot of work, I finally could restore my OS using Windows backup disks that I created a few years back. (The OS has been corrupted when the power has been accidentally deleted from the system and the battery was dead)

    Restoring backup widows put everything on 444 GB C drive.  Nothing I put on the SSD drive d:-20 GB and there is nothing in the tools of HP E: drive - 4 GB

    How can I make use of the SSD drive to help speed up the system?  I see the system starts and runs more slowly now.  I'm ready to blow the current operating system and re-run the Windows backup utility.  But I need to know how to use the SSD during the restoration.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Bob

    Hey @llebrez,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! This is a great place to find solutions and help our community!

    I understand that you have some information about using the SSD in your HP Pavilion dm4 Beats Edition Entertainment Notebook. I'd be happy to help you with that.

    The SSD in your laptop is used for a technology called Intel Smart Response. Intel Smart Response uses the SSD as a type of Cache smart to help load the items faster. The reason why that is not used currently is because the restoration of the system is not designed to use the SSD for intelligent caching and is not able to establish that on its own.

    If you want to configure Intelligent caching on your laptop, you can follow this guide provided by overclock.net: how: implement the Intel Smart Response Technology (SSD caching)

    I hope this helps. If you have more questions that I'm able to answer for you, please do not hesitate to ask.

    Please hold me.

    Hello

    Flash Player and Windows Media Player are not interchangeable.

    Like many things on the web, the Flash Player local storage can be put to bad use. This does not necessarily mean the Flash Player without scruples or bad product - it's the sites Web/people who abuse of this (depending on your point of view).

    You can configure Flash Player to block local storage on your computer. This does not necessarily all the features of Flash Player - for example with my set of Flash Player to block local storage I can still see videos on YouTube.

    The controls for the Flash Player local storage can be found here: *

    Start-> Control Panel-> Flash Player (32-bit) (Tab instorage )

    There is a good explanation of privacy and local storage of Flash Player here:
