• With Windows 8 How can I print specific pages?

  Original title: mail for Windows 8

  With Windows 8 How do I print a specific page or pages and not all this? When I'm in the email and go to devices, there is no option to do so.

  Make CTRL-P and select your printer.  Then go to the box that says all Pages open, and then select custom.  Enter the pages in the format x - y, where x = homepage and y = page end and tell it to print.

  This is not an option in Windows 8.  There is no area for all Pages.  I looked in all the boxes and there is no custom either option.  You cannot select which pages to print.  It is such a waste of paper and ink cartridge.  I hope that there is a free update for Windows 8 that will solve this problem.

  You will first need to go to the website of manufacturers for your model computer and first find out if there are native drivers in Windows 7. A large number of computers that are preloaded with Windows 8 have no native driver support for Windows 7 by the manufacturer. If there is no native driver, you will need to consider returning the machine and buying a machine preloaded with Windows 8 Pro with downgrade rights to Windows 7 Professional. Or look through the catalogue of manufacturers for systems already preloaded with Windows 7, usually the business sector will have these options.

• Windows 10 on pc itunes is on pc but my CD is on an external hard drive and I want to keep them there, but how can I get itunes to use does them everyone please have a fool proof statement

  I need to download iTunes to use my CD which is on an external hard drive and would like to keep on it. Please can someone tell me just how to do this

  My advice make a library of portable split is a general guide, but as such, it has all sorts of details that you may not need.

  I guess you have previously installed iTunes such as library files were in the usual place of C:\Users\ < user > \Music\iTunes but the media were on an external drive, for example in X:\ < Media folder >, and no longer have access to the old library, or are perhaps new to iTunes, then so be it you will need to start over again. If, then hold down the SHIFT key when you launch iTunes. Keep now until you see a prompt to create or choose a library. Click on create and make a new library at the root of the external drive, i.e. as X:\iTunes , where X is the drive letter of the external drive. Once this operation is complete, use Windows Explorer to move the existing media folder within the X:\iTunes\iTunes Media, rename the folder that you moved as say other media to avoid any possible confusion in the future, select the menu with Ctrl + B bar and use file > add folder to library, to import the file to other media in the library. Will everything that iTunes adds to the library be shuffled around. All that remains in the other media will be happy that iTunes does not know what to do with such incompatible media or album art carried out by Windows Media Player. You can sift throigh this, take what you want and use replacements for all players what you keep.

  If you need me to explain it further, do not hesitate to ask.

  Bought a new computer.  Lightroom cannot find the photos that have been saved on external hard drive because lightroom gave a different drive letter.  How (H) instead of (E).  How can I merge them without doing a full import?

  In Windows, you can change the drive letter e (Besides, isn't Lightroom, in doing so, is Windows)

• The latest version of Firefox is not compatible with my McAfee software and now I have no virus protection. How can I go back to a previous version of Firefox?

  When the latest version of Firefox has been installed it gave me a message that the McAfee software was not compatible and so I have more protection against viruses. She added that when it became compatible I would be informed. I cannot afford to be without my virus protection and want to revert to an earlier version of Firefox.

  I hope that the problem is that Firefox 5 is not compatible with some of the additional modules of McAfee. It will be rather worrying if she has a problem with McAfee security programs themselves. Please specify exactly what software and the version that you have problems with.

  There are problems with McAfee Site Advisor /questions/839953 #answer - 205178 known but we hope McAfee that will resolve in a few weeks.

• I just got a black screen with "this copy of Windows is not genuine".

  Original title: OS not real question?

  Well, I bought a computer off Craig's list this week. Yes, I know this isn't the safest place to get a computer, but what's done is done. The current operating system of the computer is Win7. However I just got the black screen with "this copy of Windows is not genuine". I looked at the back of the computer and saw that he has a real sticker Win XP Pro. So is there anyway I can just download XP Pro on this computer and be good from there?

  Thank you

  Check with the manufacture of the computer to see if you have a "recovery partition" and how to use it to restore XP or if they still have the support of Windows XP available with they can send you to usually a small fee.

• OptiPlex GX620 under Windows 7-64 bit

  We discuss to modernize our systems with Windows 7-64 bit. Some of them are OptiPlex GX620 with Pentium D processor. One of my colleageus began installing Windows 7-64 bit for some of them. So far, she said, she did not no problem. This system does support 64 bit OS?

  Thank you

  Officially no, Dell has not listed this system for Windows Vista or Windows 7 compatibility, and as such, no driver is officially available directly on the drivers and downloads. He argues that official 32-bit and 64-bit of Windows XP. In other words, that it should be 64-bit compatible. I run Windows 7 upgrade advisor to make sure that he is capable of 64-bit.

  Unofficially, he will certainly work with the 32-bit and is highly likely to work with the 64 bit. Many of the system drivers are native to Windows 7 and/or may be levied on other Optiplex models. I installed the 32 bit version on a GX520 for example which is very similar. In your case I would like to install Windows 7 my instructions below without having to activate, this will give you a 30 day trial to see how it works before you lose all licenses. You know how it runs in a couple of hours however.

  An important note on the material, you have 4 GB of RAM in each system? If I do not recommend that upgrade you using crucial memory or install the 32-bit version of Windows 7, the upgrade of the RAM to 4 GB is recommended. See here for crucial memory, it says maximum 4 GB but says also 4 slots that can accommodate 2 GB each. Run the Crucial scan on one of your machines. If you buy RAM for several of these systems, it may be interesting stick 4 x 2 GB in one to see how much RAM it can attack with a 64 bit OS (you can remove the 4 GB of RAM after the test to put in another unit). See the service manual NOTE from the ADMIN: broken link has been removed from this post by Dell > for instructions in installation RAM, make sure that it is installed in pairs. I would say that it is not worth the price to get the 8 GB of RAM in each of your machines, but it would just be interesting to know as a note aside.

• Just got yet another call for "Windows Service Station"

  Just got yet another call for "Windows service station', saying: I was hacked and my computer sends windows warning messages and if I didn't follow his instructions all my data would be deleted... An Indian-sounding guy named Sam... I played along and got a phone number, saying: I would like to remind him he said 0808 1890111 which is a UK addiction hotline...

  I played along 'Sam' gave me an extremely long code to type in something on the windows event viewer... I know it's a scam and we have these calls often 3 times a week for a few years now. I play at the same time or am quite rude and tell them to be ashamed of themselves, depending on my mood... I really wish that they would go, but I can't this blocks 'any number' because it is off the coast.
  Any suggestions on how to remove our number and the name of their list (I asked the scammers do, but they don't notice).

  Certainly a SCAM, you have made the right choice. Never to give them information and never leave access to your PC.

  It is difficult, if not impossible to remove your number from a list of scam once its on it. And it's hard to know how they got it in the first place. It could be a list simple phone book. Recording with things like Telephone Preference Service (United Kingdom) and asking to be made "Red" (BT - UK) can make it harder for them to get a number in the first place, but once they have it probably wont help. It can stop any other do however.

  There are devices like Call Blocker, which can be programmed for their calls not ring your line, but it depends on what number they release when they call. If their number is "held" and then some providers have a service to stop calls "deductions number' to ring your line. ACR service (BT - Uk).

  PS - the links above are a few examples of our services/devices to the United Kingdom for more information.
