I attempt to backup my iPhone several times and it does not backup. I received a message stating "several files were not available at the time of the backup. How can I solve this problem?
Hello Lope8725,
Looks like you are trying to backup either iCloud or iTunes, but you have found an error on files being unavailable. Can reply you with the exact wording or a screenshot of the message you are getting?
In the meantime, you can solve the problem with either of those two sections depending on whether or not it's iTunes or iCloud:
If iCloud backup could not be completed or if you can not restore
or
If your iTunes backup could not be completed or you cannot restore from a backup
See you soon!

All my .exe files will open in the same program, how can I solve this problem?
I double clicked a .exe program and she appeared with an error saying that it was not a correct path, so I right click on it hung over 'Open with' clicked "choose program by default" found and selected it clicked OK, and I don't see the "Always" use the selected program to open this type of file until after I clicked OK , but now all my .exe programs open the same and the .exe .lnk changed, I was about to restore my computer to the previous version, but none of them go back far enough, what should I do to cancel the default program?
Darn, I was hoping that the registry itself would correct after a reboot. I always try to this for you. Following is a somewhat similar to what was posted by hetti:
However, this does not mean you're going to in the registry. You create a file that will do the registry work for you. According to this link, the fixittool only works for Vista.Do you like try our suggestions. Let us know how it goes.Alamo_07 -
When I double-click an attachment in and by e-mail, whether it's a file pdf, Word, Powerpoint, Excel files, or anything else, it always opens a file save dialog box and I have to choose where to save the file first, before I open it. I'm used to just file open and then if I want to record I'll save slot in the document and save it. How can I change the settings so that's how are treated attachments? This problem is there for whatever else I'm looking for e-mails, whether through Hotmail or OWA... Thank you!

I am trying to install application constant guard Internet Security of Comcast. After trying to download and install the product, I get and RAM error message indicating I need 512 MB of RAM to install this product, and I only have 448 MB of RAM available. What happened to the 64 MB of RAM lack and how can I solve this problem. Thank you
The only way to see more of RAM is to install a graphics card and disable the onboard graphics of your motherboard. If you do this, you should be able to see all the 512 MB of it.
That being said, I will repeat what I said before...You can always buy more RAM and install it on your motherboard. Go to crucial.com for more information.In addition, you should review install 'Internet Security' application or suite. They are not necessary (you can easily configure Windows so that it is very safe) and they often ruin the performance of a PC.If you want advice in "hardening" your PC security, let know us. -
Using Windows XP Profwssional.
(1) when I try to set up "Remote support" I get the error message: "your current system settings prevent you from sending an invitation. How can I solve this problem?
(2) can I use this feature when both computers are on the same network?
Hello
(1) you must configure your computer to use the remote control - see here:
http://www.winxptutor.com/raenable.htm
and don't forget to make the firewall exceptions
(2) this function works on the different network also (so a computer can be in the United States and one in Australia)
Note - a computer can have Windows XP (family or professional edition) and another may have Windows 7, Vista.
