  • [SOLVED] I need help for Shared Documents and Documents on my computer XP Home

    I need help with my shared Documents and other folders on my computer. I have an administrator account. My son has a limited access account.

    I clicked on the option 'make my private files and folders '.  His file was renamed to Documents now my shared Documents. It's just my account.

    I tried to undo what I did. I tried everything (I mean everything) has proposed to do online.

    First of all, I logged in Safemode administrator account. I went to the Documents folder, and I've added the Administrators group and click full control.

    Then I restored system a few weeks before. Then, I went to http://computers.douglasthrift.net/winxpfaq/#faq3_shared_documents and did everything.

    None of them worked. I did so much, that I don't remember.

    Then, I found that the registry key for the Shared Documents lacked in the MUi cache. @shell32.dll,-21785. I entered, but after I rebooted a few times, he disappeared. I have to hurt... In addition to this. Now I face a different problem. I don't know it is normal but when I login my account and click on

    My computer, I see Documents of my name and the name of my son in addition to Documents (Shared Documents).

    When I save a new file in the My Documents folder, it is automatically created in the folder of Documents of my name, too. I can't delete them because they are system folders. I crossed my registry keys in the MUI cache and discovered that 4 of them did not exist in other accounts.

  • I need help to install my old Acrobat on new computer

    I had Acrobat 9.0 Standard on my old computer. I've logged into my account and was able to download this version on my new computer, but when I type in the original serial number during installation, and then click Next, it says, check the upgrade: you have entered the serial number indicates that your installation is an upgrade from Acrobat Standard version. To be eligible for this upgrade, you must already have no product qualifying. We have looked into the locations by default of qualification of the products installed on this computer, but none have been found. You can check the upgrade eligibility without having to install your previous software by filling in the fields below. Select a product you already own. Then, the drop down menu does not include the version 9.0 c we have. I need help strive to overcome that.

    While she makes quite clear the question, list that you are supposed to select in is to select the previous version that you had before version 9, that you upgraded.  Chances are you will also need to have the serial number of the previous version as well to prove that you owned it.

    Update costs less for a full version.  When you install an upgrade, it is necessary to provide proof that you have an earlier version for which the upgrade is valid.  That's what the Installer application, the evidence about the previous version.

  • Need help with lack of OneDrive icon in the tray on my Windows 7 PC

    Today, I connected to my Windows 7 PC and opened my OneDrive file, expecting to see a folder with a few pictures that I had uploaded from my mobile phone. I tried my laptop and on this PC, the files were there which indicates that the synchronization was not on my desktop PC. Sort by dumb luck, I managed to get the synchronization begins and when it happened I noticed that there was a cloud icon in my taskbar and icon remained in my taskbar until I rebooted. Upon reboot, however, cloud oneDrive icon is missing and I was unable to find a way to get it back. On my laptop, I noticed that the cloud icon is in the taskbar whenever I start, but not on my desktop PC. Has anyone experienced this problem and managed to get the icon every time? If Yes can you please share with me how to retrieve the OneDrive icon in the system tray? Thank you.

    I go to www.OneDrive.com and re - install the latest version of the app sync OneDrive.  This will repair the installation more replace any missing registry for Autorun keys during startup.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I guess I should have made more than one investigation before I posted, but I managed to fix this after reading your post. I took a glance at my laptop which was running icon and I could see an entry for OneDrive in the MSConfig Startup tab, but it wasn't in the startup folder. I ran AutoRuns of Sysinternals and on the connection tab, I found an entry for OneDrive in HKCU\software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and I then pulled regedit and find this key value in the registry. I then I went back to my desktop PC, pulled up Regedit and created a new string value, renamed OneDrive and joined in the data value field: "C:\Users\[MyName]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneDrive\OneDrive.exe" / background to match what I had on my laptop. Out of Regedit, I rebooted and found that OneDrive did start, was the cloud icon in the system tray and I could find the OneDrive entry in MSConfig. Perhaps this might help someone else who has the same problem.  Thanks again.

  • Need help to know if I can move my computer to Windows 8

    I am running Windows XP Pro Service Pack 3 on a five-year-old Dell XPX Quad.  When I try to run the Upgrade Wizard of Windows 8, I get an error message saying that it is not a valid Win 32 application, and it will not work.  I downloaded several times with the same result.  I was not able to find articles or messages by other people with this problem, so I'm at a loss to know how do I know if my computer can run Windows 8.  Any suggestions or ideas?

    My computer has a coprocessor of 2.6 GHz and 3 GB of RAM, among other things, it seems that I should be able to make the transition.  But, how can I do to determine if I can't run the upgrade wizard?  I even tried Googling this issue, which usually find anything and cannot find any reference to this problem.  Any help will be appreciated.

    Hello

    Do the following before upgrade you to Windows 8/8.1.

    Check if the manufacturer of your computer/laptop has Windows 8 drivers available for your model.

    http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/ProductSelector?FKEY=Drivers_PS

    If this is not available, Windows 8/8.1 not install and work properly for you.

    Sorry to hear that your laptop is stolen. Did you buy Lojack or any of the other software anti theft? If you do not you will need to get a police report and fill out this form and send it to Dell. Dell cannot track the IP address and can only the service tag of the Pavilion in the system if anyone tries to change the property at Dell.

    You must leave a copy of messages on the server checked on one or two machines.

    Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - uncheck: leave a copy of messages on the server.

    If you want to ride a few days, but not always, leave the option checked on both machines, but on a single computer only, check for delete after X days.
