Windows version not specified

DBX files are used by Outlook Express to store messages and data.  No program can read outside of EO, because messages are stored in a proprietary format which is not documented.  If you have messages in files, you can import them either manually in OE (see www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#imp1) or alternatively you can retrieve messages using my DBXpress (www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/) program which will extract the as other e-mail programs can import eml files in them.

    This storage folder are you referring? If you are referring to the film, what happens because you have accepted a trust between the iOS device and the computer. If the device has been connected to another computer, it must be unlocked and establish a relationship of trust as well. If you are referring to something different, please explain.

  • I can't open the fonts folder in Control Panel.

    When I double click on the folder icon fonts in the Control Panel window, it will not open. It freezes and becomes inadmissible. Then I click on cancel X at the top right of the window and he said: there was an error and must be closed. The whole desktop disappears and then reappears. What is going on? And how can I install my fonts?

    Hello Sparkybell1734, welcome.

    1 how long this issue has been produced?
    2. what level of Service Pack of Windows XP you are using? SP1, SP2, SP3?
    In addition, try this to see if it solves the problem:
    1. click on START
    2. click on 'run '.
    3 type C:\Windows\System32\dllcache and press enter
    4 checks if fontext.dll . If it does, get a folder C:\Windows\System32
    5 find the fontext.dll in this folder and delete it
    6. restart your PC and try to open the applet in the control panel fonts
    ---
    If it does not, as another method of installation of the fonts, you can always copy and paste the font file in C:\Windows\System32\Fonts

  • I can't open the Contacts folder on the left side of the page that I've always been able to do it before just clicking on it.

    On the left column of my homepage under "Inbox", there is a Contacts folder. It contains all my contacts and, in the past, whenever I clicked on it, or click the add-in, the list comes up and I can add, remove, or edit a contact. Today when I click it, nothing comes up. Sound still there because, when I send a new email and type in the first letters of the address, all who have this letter in my Contacts list come upward. How to open the Contacts list. I need to change an email address.

    Well, I don't know who is your email provider, so it is not that they own.

    First of all, you are using a very old version of Firefox with known security vulnerabilities and other issues. You must immediately update to Firefox 12.

    Once you do this, test again. If it still does not work, I will try to read the article sites look bad or appear differently than they should. specifically, redefinition of the style of page and clear the cache. If it still does not work, start Firefox in questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode. This temporarily resets Firefox to its default state in order to test more easily.

  • I can't open the files .doc attached to mail.

    After the upgrade to the latest version (31.6.00); I can't open the .doc files.
    I use Open Office 4.1.1.
    No problem with .xls, or .pdf files. But my sent email attachments or attachments in incoming mails .doc type can be opened by clicking on them. I have the first record on the computer to open the file that takes too long.

  • Once I updated to Firefox 11, I can't open the pdf files. It's more the computer, snow leopard and lion and more than one Web site.

    I've updated to Firefox 11 and now I can't open the PDFs Online. This has happened on more than 1 computer, using the two OS 10.6.8 and OS 7.0 and on more than one Web site. I tried to uncheck "block pop-up windows" in preferences, but which did not help.
    When I use Safari to open the same file to pdf, they open fine. Everything worked fine with my Firefox until I did the upgrade.

    I prefer to continue to use Firefox, but I can't understand the root of the problem.

    Has anyone else had this happen as well?

    Thank you, gentlemen, to find a "solution" to this particular behavior of Firefox. It is really curious that even if the screen is blank, you can indeed save the .pdf Ghost and then open the saved file to view. What is amazing to me is that this issue does not seem to be what makes the hit parade of the problems currently experienced Mozilla. Not everyone will be willing to do a research project extended rather than leave the ship for Safari, etc..

  • I can't open the zipper. files more

    I recently downloaded a file that is entered into a zip file. format and should be with a picture. Usually, when I download something of this type of file, I am able to click on the file and select "extract files", but with a few files I downloaded recently, this option does not appear.

    I tried right clicking and selecting "send to" > "compressed (zipped) file and try to open the new folder compressed, but it did not work."

    None of these programs have been able to open this file.

  • How can I open the file ASHX on Vista 64 - bit PC

    I downloaded an ASHX file on the internet and my PC Vistia 64 bit does not recognize.  How can I open the file?

    Hello

    File with the extension to ASHX file is an ASP.NET Web Manager.

    ASHX files are files used with the ASP.NET programming and can be opened with any program code in ASP.NET (like Microsoft Visual Web Developer). ASHX files are not intended to be read or opened by the browser. If you have downloaded a file ASHX and expecting that it contains information (such as a document or other recorded data), it is likely that something is wrong with the website and instead of generating usable information, she provided this file server instead.

    You can search on the Internet a program that can open this file.

    Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    Important:  Take great care when opening file formats executable received in e-mail or downloaded from Web sites, that you are not familiar with as it could cause damage to your computer.

  • Photo Gallery can't open the photo because you are not allowed access to the location of the file

    Photo Gallery can't open the photo because you are not allowed access to the location of the file some of the image are open

    Click on the folder and change your permissions for it and all subfolders and files all rights and if necessary take hand the case (and maybe the parent folder or even its parent - and all of the subfolders and files) until you have the permission you need.  Here are the general procedures to help you:

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

    To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

    Help, please.

    I did something wrong (AGAIN!)

    I had no problem with access to attachments to my e-mails, but a problem occurred just.

    I can longer open attached pdf files.  I am able to preview the files, but they are too small for me to read.  When I click to open all the I get now is a kind of icon (in Microsoft Office Picture Manager) with which I can't do anything.

    It seems I should have arranged for Picture Manager automatically opens attachments to emails, but when this happens, I'm stuck as what I try, I can't do pdf files appear as they did.

    The help file does not really help.

    I hope it is something simple, even an old fool like me can do with your expert (and, I hope. friendly) help.

    My fingers are crossed.
