I need to change the master password on laptop, the other user went abroad, and I can't get in touch with him for weeks
Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!
Ideas:
- You have problems with programs
- Error messages
- Recent changes to your computer
- What you have already tried to solve the problem
Hello
If your account is an administrator account, you can change the password of another user account in the Control Panel/users. There is also the account by default in safe mode that is not normally protected by except defined by a user.
Otherwise, you will have to wait for the user to return. It is against the policy of Microsoft for users of the forum help others in circumvention of password and other security measures.

I've had my laptop for several years and a week ago, the hard drive crashed. So, although I had all my photos and movies and other saved, I lost Vista. This wouldn't be a problem if I could find the disks that came with the computer at the beginning, but I've moved several times in recent years (college) and I can't find them. Anyway, I'm now trying to get in touch with Microsoft to get a new drive, but they won't talk to you unless you can provide a product key.
There is a product key on the back of my laptop, but their system apparently doesn't like it and so they're going to make me pay $ 50 just to send someone. Someone knows how to bypass the product key thing, so I can get a customer support?
Thank you
ChandraHello
as vista came preinstalled Microsoft do not offer FREE support for this issue of yours. That is why the price of $50.
and they ask for a product ID, not a product key that you mentioned; but who has the same result; no free support
Product ID is completely different from the product key
your support is the manufacturer of your laptop; but feel free to ask questions on these Forums
to reinstall vista:
Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

Last week, I contacted supported help because my serial No. has not worked. I was told that it was cancelled (after 6 years!) for reasons that are not clear. They would work to solve it and come back tho me within 24 to 48 hours. I have heard nothing and still cannot use my CS4. How do you get in touch with a real person again. My person tech do this for me last time and believes that the reason may be that someone has hacked into my iMac and uploaded my CS4 to other computers.
Thanks for the clarification of Mary. When the serial number for Photoshop CS4 completed the process of reimbursement and that your money has been repaid, it was cancelled. It is the normal procedure as you have been reimbursed for your previous Creative Suite 4 purchase. I saw a note in the 202666540 matter who told you you could continue to use your Creative Suite 4 Mac license.
I added a new Photoshop CS 4 Mac serial number to your account. Serial number ends in 1936 and is active. You can find details on how to locate the new serial number to quickly find your serial number.

Adblock Plus a "permenantly" has changed the appearance of many websites (e.g., google.com). I would like to illustrate this, but I can't find how to add jpg files to this issue.
I have erased the max of Firefox, removed Adblock Plus, reloaded Firefox (v12). Nothing seems to help. The newly installed Firefox "remembers" the same damaged look of Web sites.
How can I recover the 'normal' appearance for Web sites.
If you read the article sites look bad or appear differently than they shouldand follow all the steps, does that help? You can add a screenshot by clicking on the "Add Images:" at the bottom of this page.

Hello, as stated in the title, I recently bought a one year student membership to Cloud Adobe Creative suite, with the confirmation number provided by email. It's been more than 24 hours, and I still cannot download my purchase. When I click on the download button, the download starts, but is only to between 4 and 30% before stopping. Error messages that are returned are 201 or 1001. 201 refers to the Internet connection which, according to the website of my ISP, is fine. Referring to the 1001 error troubleshooting section offers all first uninstall the desktop app creative cloud and then reinstall it before you run the vacuum cleaner. However, I am unable to uninstall the trial version, only receives a message that uninstalling cannot happen because other applications use. None are open and even a restart does not solve the problem.
Adobe phone service is naturally closed at the time wherever I come home from work, and their chat tool is inactive since purchase. So, I turn on the forums. If someone from Adobe can contact me, or if anyone in the Adobe community has useful advice, it will be greatly appreciated.
Anthony Y.
