• Files from Nikon (CS5.5) stuttering during playback. Canon files were very good. Do I need a different sequence setting, upgrade of the computer?

  I have been change in first CS 5.5 and have always enjoyed a generally transparent experience, but since the change of camera from Canon to Nikon systems, I can't play back more than 2 layers of Nikon without playback stutter. I could easily stack 3 or more layers of Canon without issue.all

  I think I'm following best practices for my hardware, and as I said, I've accomplished in the past, but it seems that my machine does not meet the Nikon video anywhere near as well as he did with Canon. Everyone knows this?

  Here is my system info:

  I7 - 2600K
  SSD 256 GB (OS, swap file)

  1 TB WB black (projects, data)

  1 TB WD Black (previews, export)

  GTX 560 Ti 2 GB (on Mercury GPU)

  Ideas or suggestions on things to do back to speed, or do I need an upgrade? It's just images of SLR, I feel that this system should be more than capable of 2 rivers.

  Thank you!

• How to upgrade to Windows 7 and the computer freezes when I go to print

  original title: several questions in fact

  I have 2 questions

  (1) my son bought a Sony NS Series Notebook for me. It came with a promise that I could upgrade to Windows 7. He tried to update several times and it didn't work. I know little about computers and so I accepted his answer that the Vista operating system is also good. Now I feel all sorts of problems and I told me time and again that it would be better to have windows 7. Any who tried to get the manufacturer to update after the date specified in them?

  (2) my son helped connect me to 2 different printers depending on what I need to print. Now, the computer crashes when I go to print. Any advice?

  Thank you in advance.
  Krystyna

  (1) depending on your laptop model and the day when you pruchase, you might be able to take advantage of Windows 7 update, for more information I suggest the Sony site for Windows 7 upgrade:

  http://eSupport.Sony.com/us/Perl/os7upgrade.pl

  Or you can contact the Sony customer for more details

  (2) for printer, the issue can be due to configuration or other reasons, I suggest to update your Windows and make sure printer drivers installed and also try to run:

• Cannot move photos to the computer after the upgrade to iOS10

  Yesterday my iPhone updated to iOS 10 and now when I plug my phone into my PC (HP m6w103-dx / Windows 10 / iTunes 12.5.1.21) the computer will ba - beep once iTunes sync, charge the phone but I no longer have access to the photos via Windows Explorer folder.  The phone does not appear in Windows Explorer and I don't get the second ba - beep that normally, I had before the upgrade.

  I restarted the phone and the computer, then tried again with no luck.  I myself have sent pictures that were on my phone, deleted all of them film, then took some new pictures and tried again.  Still no luck.  Help!

  Your post is the 4th now ask about the same problem. One user solves the problem by connecting the phone to a different USB port on the computer. You might want to try it.

• After the upgrade to 3.6 my FlashDrive falls down while I'm playing Farmville. I tried to update the flash player. I tried to restart the computer. Nothing works.

  Last night, my system was still using Firefox 3.5.8. I played Farmville on Facebook and everything worked well. This morning, I connect to my computer and find that I upgraded to Firefox 3.6. I tried to play Farmville all morning and Adobe Flash Player continues to break. I tried to update Flash Player. I tried to restart the computer. Nothing works.

  URL of affected sites

  http://Facebook.com

  Another potential cause of this problem is that the lock timeout is set too low:

  1. Select the address bar of Firefox (click or press CTRL + L)
  2. Type of topic: config and press enter
  3. Click on I'll be careful, I promise!
  4. in the filter box, type dom.ipc.plugins.timeoutSecs
  5. Double-click the setting and change the number.

  The default number is 10, for a default timeout of 10 seconds. Some games Flash can be slow and requires a higher setting. I would recommend to change that to 20 if you have problems with this.

  In addition, it would really help if people who encounter this problem let us know what games Flash is slow - and as soon as they are slow. Thank you!

• Desktop HP Pavilion 500-342nem: can I upgrade my desktop computer hp pavilion 500 with the graphics card AMD RX 480 replacing edge R7

  I plan to upgrade my hp pavilion 500-342nem, who was already A7 graphical 240 with the new 480 RX.

  Is it possible to upgrade both the power supply and graphics card?

  There will be no problem of compatibility (PSU Corsair CX 500 questioned?.)

  I heard a lot of chatter on hp restricting the upgrade of their pc.

  The new card will work?

  Any help will be apppreciated.

  @Jeffrin98, welcome to the forum.

  I cannot find the specs of the product to the computer.  So, here's what you need to do.  Press Start + R from the view of the office.  This will open a run dialog box.  In the box labeled type msinfo32 opened.  In the page that opens, check the option titled Mode BIOS.  If he says UEFI motherboard is supported by the video card.  If this isn't the case, you will not be able to move forward.

  The next step is to measure the space where the card will be installed to ensure that it fits.  Measure from the back i/o port to the front of the case.  This will allow you to see if other ingredients will limit the installation.

  The CX500 Corsair power supply (PSU) should work.  However, check how much power requires the video card.  It may be better to buy a PSU with 600W.  High power will be used during peak power needs.  In addition, the card may require additional power connectors.  Also, I recommend a modular power supply.  It allows you to use only the cables that are absolutely necessary, create better air circulation.  It is very important with more powerful graphics cards.  The heat can be much larger.

• HP 15-r030wm, upgrading RAM and open the computer.

  I have two questions about my computer hp laptop 15-r030wm.

  First of all, I want to upgrade my RAM, but you need to know if I should get Gs 8 or 12.

  Second, the specifications say there is one location of the user, but I can't find anything on how to open the computer!  There is no door panel or obvious access anywhere.

  Any help is appreciated!

  The L stands for low voltage.

  You need memory for laptop with a voltage of 1.35, not 1.5.

  The memory that your son identified will not work.  From what I could find the voltage specs are 1, 5V.

  You need memory who said DDR3L, not of DDR3.

  I would go with it.

  Hi KevinRy,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

  Unplug all external devices.

  Try to start in safe mode. If you can start in safe mode, and then do a system restore to restore the computer to an earlier point in time.

  Change the recovery settings to disable automatic reboot, if you are able to boot up to the desktop computer:

  1.	Right-click my computerand then click Properties.
  2.	Click the Advanced tab.
  3.	Under Startup and recovery, click settings to open the Startup and recovery dialog box.
  4.	Clear the automatically restart check box, and then click OK many times necessary.
  5.	Restart your computer so that the settings take effect.

  Now, when you are going to close and a fatal error occurs, you will see at least and it won't cause an automatic restart.

  Please reply back with the error message you get because it helps us to resolve the error.

  Kind regards

• Can I use Windows 7 Upgrade media to upgrade a Vista computer that has not been upgraded to service pack 1? Can I use the option of custom Setup for Windows 7 Upgrade media? I would go from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Premium.

  The computer on which I am trying to upgrade is vascular under Vista Premium, but it was never upgraded to Service Pack 1. He has a problem with PIECES that is caused by a defective ntdll.dll module and so the updates do not work. Windows Upgrade Advisor tells me I must update Vista SP1. I really don't want to spend the time to solve the problem of Vista. I would like to just do a clean install using the custom install option on the Win7 upgrade support.
  Help.

• After upgrading Windows XP to Windows 7, how can I get the computer to open strictly to Windows 7 instead of choosing "Windows 7 or an earlier version on windows"?

  After the upgrade, I want the computer to open to strictly Windows 7.  I get a page asking if I want to Windows 7 or an earlier version.  There also all programs on the file for XP that I didn't need since the upgrade, I transferred all my documents, files, etc.: on my removable hard drive.  How I can do all this extra to elimintate bits of information and make it turn on the computer faster and more accurate?
