I downloaded and installed several screensavers...

However, they do not appear in the drop of screensaver. I found the file and clicked on "install" and the demo plays perfectly but the screen saver to never play and it always disappears in the menu drop down. It is probably an easy fix... am I missing something?

Hello

For screensavers to appear, they must be:

-wear a .scr file extension
-be located in the \system32 folder
-be Vista compatible

Nothing else does not, and many available freebies will work but not necessarily meet all of the above conditions. Their installation must be done with high privilege (click right/run as admin).

  • elements 14 downloaded and installed without problems, results of creative cloud in error 207

    I recently bought the Canon 7 D Mark II and received a 1 year free to the creative cloud subscription. I tried for three weeks to download and install CC, but just get error 207.  I tried all the suggestions of various forums on this subject, but nothing works. I stopped my anti-virus, firewall, bypassed my router and on and so forth.  I just downloaded and installed 14 elements without any problem. I also received One Kelby Training for a year, but may not use it to CC.  Any suggestions?  I am 70 and have successfully downloaded and installed several software products over the years. Why is it so difficult?

    207 occurs when there is no response from the server (in case of timeout), intermittent errors HTTP or dead connections. Please see the links below for the solution.

    Hope this will help you.

  • I can't get Adobe Flash to work on 25 FF. Downloaded and installed the AF, but always error get to Pandora, etc.

    I use FF25 on Windows 7. When I go to Pandora and Grooveshark I get error messages telling me that I need to install a newer version of Flash (v. 10 or later). I downloaded and installed (I think) Flash repeatedly, but I still get this error message. (Btw, I got the same message with IE, but I installed Flash for that and all right.) I read somewhere that I need to download the latest version of Real Player so that Flash to work. I did, but get the same error messages. I'm not tech savvy and don't know what to do now.

    You don't seem to have the correct Adobe Flashplayer installed for Firefox. It is not in the list of Plugins with your question (Shockwave Flash followed by the version #). It can also be disabled in Add-ons > Plugins.

    • Adobe Flash Player is available in several versions. One is the only IE (ActiveX) and one for most other browsers (Plugin).
    • In addition, there are 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Firefox is a 32-bit browser and requires 32-bit Plugin version.
    • You can have both 32-bit versions and 64-bit installed and different browsers will use the correct version (-bit and ActiveX or Plugin).

    For the use of the correct version of the relevant browser (e.g., Firefox) and go to the next page for the version appropriate; in this case, use Firefox to see the link below, you are using Firefox you must SAVE the download on your hard disk, close all browsers, then run the installation program you just downloaded. Update Flash Player, always up-to-date for IE and Firefox.

    My question says it all. In addition, this has started happening yesterday. Initially, I have is to download the file. However, before I installed it, I checked with Google on this subject. When I discovered the file is a malicious virus or malware. So I never installed it. I ran PC Tuneup Maestro several times now and fixed the problems. However, this incentive to uplayermediaplayer - setup.exe is constantly on my computer screen. I do not install it. I want to rid my computer of this incentive of this file.

Earlier this morning, I tried to call N360 support, but the representative does not direct answers, give me lost a lot of time and really don't give me the sense of knowledge of this file or how to remove inviting them to download and install it.

  • Updates are always safe to download and install on my computer?

    After you receive the message that I have updates to download and install, is ALWAYS completely safe to do? With my last PC, I got a typical announcement, completely legitimate-looking that I had "several important updates" that I needed to download and install. I have had these ads before on the necessary updates and always took the lead with download and install them. BUT after the download and installation of these special "updates", my computer was completely dead and never worked again - I couldn't even get it to blue screen! Absolutely no response when I turned it on. Since there was nothing wrong with it before these "updates", I can't help but conclude that some of these "updates" are not only wrong, but also deadly!

    Hello

    Yes always install updates. They solve the problems of security and improve the stability of Windows. If you have any problems, create a new question and we can help you solve these issues :)

  • Download and install Vista Service Pack 2 - difficulties.

    So, I posted this in another forum, but told me to re-post here with more info... but I have no more.  I'll just re-post I posted in the other and see if someone here can help me.  Thank you!

    I don't get an error downloading the service pack, but my computer restarts.  I know, they say that it might restart several times, but Windows is trying to start mode safe because it has not been closed properly.  I tried three times, three times all automatic updates.  Twice I restarted in safe mode, it and tried to determine what the problem was, but could not.  I know that the error codes and the help of stuff, but I have not write everything, and I don't want to continue to have my computer turned off properly.  Another time I ignored the recommendation in Mode safe and started Windows normally.  He said it was configuration updates, but he stopped even before it began, and the update is still waiting to be downloaded and installed.  If anyone has any information that they think will help, that would be great.  I know I don't have a lot of valuable information, but whatever it is would be helpful.
    Thank you.

    Well, I went to try to reinstall and cull all error messages and download it no matter what, but now Windows will not start.  Nothing has actually been installed, I think not, because the installation process is always interrupted.  I ran the fixer thing turning and I tried to restore to an earlier point, but he could not know what the problem was, and he could not restore the computer to an earlier date.  I was planning to do a while system restore and losing all my files, I don't have many of them.  But I don't want to have to go through the motions again downloaded and installed massive amounts of updates needed.  Does anyone have advice so that maybe I won't have to do?  Thank you.

    Thank you, guys.  I know that I don't give a lot of information...

    After replacing hard drive using my laptop and the upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10, I reinstall a number of programs and utilities such as InDesign CS4. My original program disc refuses to load, however, and my attempts to download a replacement copy of the ID CS4 on Adobe website have been desperately vain all evening.  I have connected to my Adobe account repeatedly, as long as the serial number of my original disk copy of ID CS4 repeatedly and repeated other steps several times as well, but have never been able to reach a point where I can actually download and install a new copy of the program.
