I have been experiancing crashes to the desktop when running The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion even though he used to work properly on my computer
I am experiancing crashes to desktop when I try to click on the main menu of the game oblivion. I've had the game for a long time and it worked when I tried it (about a year). But now it crashes whenever I click on something in the main menu. I don't remember any specific major changes that have been made to the computer, because it stopped working because I haven't used the game in more than a year, but I tried several methods of attachment:
I scanned the folder with oblivion.
I defragment the hard drive.
I deleted the temporary (more) files.
I tried running it in both safe mode and clean the boot it. (Safe mode worked for consolidated first half an hour when it also crashed)
My computer has been working with the program in the past, so I think that my computer should be able to run again:
Windows Vista: ultimate
Model: Inspiron 53OS
Processor: Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU @2. 33 GHz
Memory (RAM): 4.00 GB
ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro
You have any ideas on what I can do to fix this?

FB needs to fix it. There are a lot of people (in a Google search), who are having probs. One way or the other

have been unable to install the driver for some users. We do not receive the following error message.
Error: 0 x 00000006
Hi Sameer,
Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.
According to the description, I understand that you are getting an error code.
I would like to know some information.
You are connected to a domain network?
When exactly do you get this error code?
Do you also have any error message?
This problem may occur if the print spooler service is stopped.
To start the spooler service, follow these steps:
1. click on Startand then click Control Panel.
2. double-click Administrative Toolsand then click Services.
3. double-click on the Printer Spooler service and then change the startup type to Automatic. This option sets the spooler service starts automatically when you restart the computer.
4. If you want to start the spooler service immediately, click Start in the area of The State of the Service .
I would also refer to the Microsoft Help Article below and check if that helps.
Hope this information helps. Please let us know if you need any other help with Windows in the future. We will be happy to help you.

What is the best strategy to migrate data from Windows to one Mac to another? I use Parallels Desktop to run Windows on my current Mac but want to use Bootcamp on my new.
If it is only the data (not apps) I use Dropbox. It turned out to be the best way to move things between the side Mac and the bootcamped Windows of my iMac side. I don't see why it would not work to move data from a virtual machine installation of Win to a BootCamp installation.

says I have emails, but not down load them - used to work properly
says I have emails, but not down load them - used to work properly.
For an example says that there download 1 / 6 after awhile, he says no new messages. I can check my email from another source and see that I have 6 messages and am able to read them. I ran scan programs and malware and clear up all the problems, they found that Thunderbird is not download again. I'm on the latest version 31.6.0
This is probably one of these programs of malware or anti virus which is at the origin of the problem. Disable the e-mail in your anti virus and restart your computer. Best? What anti virus is it anyway?

How to use the Adobe Air? Adobe Flash must Adobe Air to work properly?
How to use the Adobe Air? Adobe Flash must Adobe Air to work properly?
Flash Player requires no AIR.
AIR is a technology that allows Flash developers to make stand-alone desktop applications and mobile. Some desktop applications of AIR (generally older) require the shared AIR runtime to exploit, while others are packaged in stand-alone applications with no external dependencies.
Hope that helps.

Hello:
I upgraded to 37.0.2 today. Fx reboot, I can't see any bookmarks. NO what so ever.
My bookmarks bar was full.So I open the bookmarks in the menu bar top (view all bookmarks] and none show there either.)
The bar watch bookmarks but not favourites. everything gone?Please see screenshot
Thank you scribe_UK
(1) I did as you suggested:
First of all open the bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > restore and see if you have a backup there.(2) all the backups of my favorites are there. My Favorites get saved at shutdown fx, which i usually do daily or every 2 days. Then I copied the latest file on my hard drive. Then I restored it. Just in case something goes wrong.
(3) it is the good news. The bad news
> restoring crashed 3 times before it completely restored. When I say crashed... started giving errors js... so I waited and let the script raather than to stop it. After about an hour and a bit it finally done.
> all bookmarks lost all their icons. So I loaded the fav icon reloader Add on. And it was refreshing icons. A took about 2 hours to refresh.so I'm now sorted from the point of view of bookmarks. But the upgrade to Fx always makes me nervous when things like this happen. Not pretty.
Secondly, since the upgrade, Fx went back slow slow speed that it worked before as I have created a new installation new Yosemite as 5 cool months and there's profile. If something tells me the upgrade of fx is only as a last resort. Like I slow FX now, unless I want to spend even more time, you re-create the Fx profile.
Thanks for your help.

I tried to manage a library which mainly includes the tracks that I created in Logic Pro X - other than return to completely manual (non-iTunes) work with folders to iTunes from 30 GB with mp3 and wav files and the files of AIF - is - it possible to use iTunes to organize my own catalogue of increasingly bigger?
Is it advisable to create a completely new iTunes with JUST my own inside music library? Is it still possible?
iTunes was designed for Auditors to organize their albums, artists, playlists and all the rest... it seems to be a good basis for that solution, but not perfect of course. I wonder aloud if there are solutions for musicians.
Thank you!
Jerry
Hold down the option/ALT key at startup of iTunes to create a new library.
Using WAV is a mistake. Use rather AIFF. WAV does not store track information.
I don't know LogicPro interfacing. The way I have with me in them are records of the soundboard of old acoustic in the world.

I have been unintentionally disconnected and the computer restarted against my will!
This has happened 3 times already in the last days. My computer says I will be disconnected Windows in one minute and I lose everything that I do and restart the computer. Does anyone have an idea why this is happening?
Restore point:

Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.
Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.
Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.
