I am logged on as administrator, but windows 7 always tell me that I have to you as an administrator
I try to install new software and I only have one user on this laptop and when I check the user account States that I am administrator but still always tells me to open a session as long as administrator, and then try again... Help, please
It may be that you must run the program itself, at a high level. Click with the right button on the setup of the program and in the context menu should be the run as Administrator option. Left click that and see if that fixes the problem.
Even if you are connected with an admin account Windows protects against certain types of changes. If the installer is written with the guidelines from Microsoft that it would allow the control of user account to present a dialog to confirm the operation however older programs do not have this feature and just do not work.

I tried to insert a password to protect a document that I send. He told me to add a service that I paid for. I'm still not able to protect document and install a password. I went to tools-Protect but he always tells me that I have to pay for this service after I did. How can I add a password to open my document?
Hi cj47163119,
You need Acrobat application to secure your document with password. It seems that you use Acrobat Reader.
Acrobat Reader is a free service and do not have this option.
If you have Acrobat subscription, you can download it here: Download Adobe Acrobat products. Standard, Pro | DC, XI, X
For more help, see this KB doc: Security with passwords, Adobe Acrobat PDF files
Kind regards

Download seems to work as expected until I log on the net when the homepage doesn't seem to know that I downloaded the latest version.
It - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Page to start Firefox used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox. I think that Google assumes that you are using an older version of Firefox, as they hard-coded message 'upgrade' in this page - all versions of Firefox see this message.
From version Firefox 4, Firefox uses a 'local' with the address Start Page of Subject: House. It looks like the old start Page, but this isn't exactly the same thing.

I have version 3.6.13 Firefox and Windows XP. I don't know if I had something off or not? I put Firfox in safe mode to see if it would run faster, and since I'm now getting this message?
There are 2 versions of Adobe Flash:
- the version of the Plugin for Firefox and most other browsers
- the only ActiveX for IE version (see: ActiveX)
- Updated, you need to update as well
You do not have the Plugin version installed for Firefox. Search for "Shockwave Flash" in tools > Modules > Plugins
- Install the Flash plugin to the latest version.
- Download and SAVE to your desktop, so you can find the Setup program later
- If you do not have the current version, click on the "Player Download Center" link on the 'download and information' or 'Download manual installers' below
- Once the download is complete, exit Firefox
- Click on the installer, you just download and install
- Windows 7 and Vista: will need to right click on the installer and choose 'run as administrator '.
- Launch Firefox and recheck your version or up to the download link below to test the installation
- Download and information: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
- Use Firefox to go to the site above to update the Firefox plugin (will also install the plugin for most other browsers, except IE)
- Use IE to go to the site above to update the ActiveX to IE
- Download manual installers.
- http://kb2.Adobe.com/CPS/191/tn_19166.html#main_ManualInstaller
- Note the separate links for:
- Plugin for Firefox and most other browsers
- ActiveX for IE

For example, Youtube said: "your browser is no longer supported. Please switch to a modern browser. "
However, when I go to help > about Mozilla Firefox, it says I have version 3.6.13.
I just usually treat these annoying messages, but I'm currently stuck on a database that I need to get because of this problem, so I really need help!
Thank you!
This can happen if you have an incorrect user agent string (identifies the version of Firefox). Some add-ons are changing the user agent string to show an old version of Firefox, even if you have the latest version installed.
You need to reset the user agent string so that it will correctly identify the version of Firefox you have installed, for more details on how to make and who see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Websites+or+add-ons+incorrectly+report+incompatible+browser

These things keep popping up and saying: I have the virus randomly they restart my computer and Xp anti-spyware says I virus. It won't let me uninstall things download and save my files. It is also said that Malware is attacking my computer. He also says that my files are infected. I do not have access to the administrator, and it is "infected" it too. Also my documents all went to I don't know where they all are and I have no ideas and can not find them
Hmm, I would recommend to go in safe mode by pressing the F8 key for the system to start. When the list appears highlight the line that says safe mode and you'll get a bunch of lines on the screen, then it will continue in safe mode. Click Yes in the box that asks if you are sure you want to enter in safe mode, and then run FixNCR.reg. You may need to right-click on the file and then select run as administrator.
I hope this helps.

Currently, I'm trying to download a Flash update on my MacBook Pro and he always tells me that I have not sufficient permissions to do so. After talking with the Apple support they said that there are no problems with my permissions user that I'm an admin so it's a matter of Adobe. I have the same problem of "permissions" when I try to save changes using photoshop and it drives me crazy. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi Gina,
Sorry for the inconvenience, using Photoshop and Flash update. Looks like there may be some permissions on system issues.
Two ways to fix this-
- Repair your disk permissions - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201560
- Create a new user account and try to work on this account (create new accounts new own permissions) - es.html #Permissions blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/2012/07/photoshop-basic-troubleshooting-steps-to-fix-most-issu
Try these suggestions and let us know how it goes.

I've uninstalled it on the old notebook but lightroom still tells me that I have a 'test' version and not a licensed. I logged into the creative cloud with my profile. Anyone know how I can tell Lightroom it's the only 'licence' and not a trial version? Thank you!
Hello
First of all, disconnect, then back into creative cloud, using adobe id to pay for your subscription.

Then, if you launch any product of CC 2015 and the pop up still shows a trial message window, please check this link for the resolution:

Since I updated Firefox I can't play anything that requires Flash player. I have the reader up-to-date and it works perfectly with IE, but Firefox always tells me that I need another plugin and when I followed the instructions, it says "failed download try manual download" but even that fails too.
Before I updated Firefox I had no problem, can you help me

Original title: my computer is corrupt and needs fixing!
I received calls from a person in India who said that they are Windows services centre telling me that they have received the error message saying that my computer is damaged, and they want to help me. But I have not received any error message on my screen. When I asked them how they got my number they said it's from the database of Windows. The number they gave me is 02921252715 and when I called the number of the person on the other end told me that they are a company called Windows e-solution, independent company and is not attached to Microsoft Windows. What should I do? Are these authentic calls and approved by Microsoft Windows?

Windows always tells me that I don't have no 'scan in some time"when, in fact, I did.
How can I stop it?
Hello
I remember there are some parameters in CCleaner, you can check under application settings and do not check MS AntiMalware?
then check if your problem has been resolved, with this it's because that that your CCleaner scan of your hard drive and delete the history of the ESM log
