Impossible to get MSDN (as opposed to the ' Community') forums

How is it when I go to the Microsoft Developer Network site at

http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us

and click on 'Forums' to take me to

http://social.msdn.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/categories

EVERY TIME I get the message "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"?  It happened as long as I can remember, and I am totally unable to join the forums at all, and even less after a question here.

If I go directly to

http://social.msdn.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/categories

However, I get the message 'something was wrong and we cannot connect you right now. Please try again later. "even if I'm already connected!

However, I am able to go directly to the SQL Server forum

http://social.msdn.Microsoft.com/forums/SQLServer/en-us/home

but once I log in there, again I immediately get the message "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".

Any thoughts?  Thanks for any help that anyone can give.

  • Satellite 1130-Z31: impossible to get 1600 x 900 on the second monitor

    I have a Toshiba Satellite 1130-Z31 (an old, but everything works well).

    Now, I have attached a second monitor with a native resolution of 1600 x 900 pixels.

    I put the second screen resolution to 1600 x 900, it is accepted.

    However, the image on the second monitor is ugly, and the external monitor´s what OSD says it gets 1440 x 900 pixel laptop computer signals.

    It seems that Toshiba sends an image with a lower resolution on the whole.

    I installed the latest graphic driver - no change.

    Or would it be a problem with a bad quality VGA cable or almost?

    Any ideas?

    Thank you
    Turtle

    Hello

    Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find the info which resolutions are supported for external screens, but if you can't get 1600 x 900 pixels which means that this resolution is not supported by the graphics card.

    What video port are you using? VGA 15 pins port maybe?

  • Impossible to get online - Spinning circle in the taskbar after login

    Windows XP

    Skype 6.21.60.104

    Today, I turned on my computer and logged on to Skype as usual. It connects fine but will not online. I only get the circle of rotation in the taskbar.

    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, I deleted all my anti-virus software with no luck.

    My internet works fine on this computer, the only thing I have a problem with Skype.

    I live in Spain and it's the only way I can keep in touch with my children back in England, so please HELP?

    Any advice or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you very much

    Rob Perry

    Yes. I mean that you need to upgrade your Internet Explorer to the latest version of IE8. The latest versions of Skype will not work with IE6.

  • Impossible to get Clip + to work in the Honda Accord

    In my Honda, mode to THE, I can't get the Clip + to work.  I was back and forth between the MTP and MSC.  My old Sansa works very well.  What I am doing wrong?

    Your car stereo is probably looking for a device to MSC base. If your music has been loaded from a computer with the Clip + in MTP mode or Auto Vice, your car stereo will be probably able to find.

    If this is the case, change the Mode USB MTP setting, connect to your computer and move (not copy) all the files on the computer. Now tell-connect, switch mode MSC, reconnect and copy (and not move) the files to the player. This will leave copies of backup on your hard drive. Now connect to your car stereo and it should work.

    Note that sometimes the stereo channels is not enough 'smart' see files stored in a folder of music. If after doing the above, you still have problems, try highlighting all the folders/files 'in' you music folder and moving them to the top directory or 'root' (at the same time the music folder). So he could see them. You can delete the empty music folder if you wish.

    Miikerman also has a good point. Your car stereo will not be able to see 2 memory locations, as in the internal memory and external memory card. He reads only the files from the internal memory.

  • Impossible to get keylistener to work on the app

    I'm trying to get back on the phone button to work on my application, but it only quit the application when pushed. I want to go back one screen. My application to open a browser, and then I created this class:

    public class keylistener implements KeyListener {

    {} public boolean keyChar (key char, int status, int time)
    Returns false;
    }

    {} public boolean keyDown (keycode, int, int times)
    If (Keypad.KEY_BACKSPACE is {Keypad.key (keycode))}
    Consume the event.
    Here I use the event for the escape key
    Returns true;
    }
    Let the system to pass the event to another auditor.
    Returns false;
    }

    {public boolean keyRepeat (keycode int, int times)
    Returns false;
    }

    Can someon if you please help me understand how to make this work?

    How do you need process that EVASION depends on how you arrived at the screen you are currently.  Usually, we'll push a new screen on top of the previous, so all you need to do is to pop this screen the display stack and the old screen will be displayed.  To do this, you could code something like:

    {} protected Boolean keyChar (character char, int status, int time)

    switch (character) {}
    case Characters.ESCAPE:
    UiApplication.getUiApplication () .popScreen (this);

    Returns true;
    by default:
    Return super.keyChar (character, status, time);
    }
    }

    But sometimes you can keep viewing the battery deep, just a screen by pushing and popping when you move between screens - this is what you would do to simulate a screen for example.  If you do this, then to deal with an ESCAPE, you must push the previous screen and then current pop.

    Does make sense?

  • Impossible to get on one page with the browser

    Using Dreamweaver for Mac.  I have a model with fixed header and footer fixed intermediate editable; in the heading are links to other pages. There is a page that my browser cannot see and gets an error, 'you don't have permission to access payments.html on this server."  I'm even a cool HTML to the template file and unless my eyes are bad, things are correctly spelled. The site is BarfieldConstruction.com and the payments link is on the right, if someone wants to take a peek. (This link has worked for years and I put the stuff of PayPal return later).

    Any ideas?

    It is the problem of the permission of a file. Go to a remote server in your files Panel.  Right-click on payments.html.  Change the permissions to 755.  This should solve the problem.  If this is not the case, contact your webhost.

  • Impossible to get CS4 to work on the new iMac with the Mavericks

    I just bought a new iMac running the Mavericks and used Migration Assistant to migrate my old iMac. (I did twice!) Since then, I am unable to use CS4 on my new iMac. He asked my serial number that I type in but keep get a big red X next to it :-(

    I disabled CS4 from my old iMac, including the removal of the serial number.

    I downloaded and installed Java for OS x

    I followed solutions 1 and 2 on http://helpx.Adobe.com/x-productkb/global/error-licensing-stopped-Mac-OS.html

    Solution 1 resulted in nothing (there was no FlexNet folder in my library or anywhere else on my computer)

    Solution proposed 2 download the licenses Adobe, but the LicenseRecovery111.dmg file repair utility was not recognized, so does not open so it's not very useful!

    Solution 3 suggests repair disk permissions - as this is a new download of the Mavericks, I have not tried it yet

    Solution 4 suggests reset the permissions on the folder of FlexNet Publisher licensing service (Solution 1 suggested to delete it in the Library/Preferences folder and yet it is now apparently in the folder/Library/Application Support!)

    Solution 5 suggests reset permissions on the Adobe PCD folder - there isn't one on the new or the old iMac!

    Solution 6 proposes to delete the cache.db - journal in the Adobe PCD folder - see above

    Solution 7 suggest re-formatting the drive in a file system that is not case sensitive! Not really inclined to do

    Solution 8 - reinstall - new iMac doesn't have a DVD drive then how so I do? No doubt it will not solve the problem in Solution 7 anyway?

    Solution 9 - contact Adobe support - I did and spent some time on the chat with them that to say that I don't a not qualify for their help and to go to the forums

    I have searched the forums and tried various suggested corrections but no luck.

    Please can someone help before I have pull out all my hair

    Download the demo and activate it with your serial number:

    Be sure to follow the instructions.

    You probably need to run UN-install it first to clean up the old files.

  • Impossible to get bluetooth to work on the satellite a series

    When I bought my laptop it stated on the box that it is compatible bluetooth. I tried since to know how to use it but can't find anything on the menu, even through the search tool. Bluetooth does not appear in Device Manager (menu assistance took me by that), but after looking in the menu programs and features, it shows "Bluetooth stack for windows by toshiba"!

    Does that mean that my laptop IS bluetooth enabled and if so anyone know how to use it?

    Hello

    BT is quite simple to use. The WLAN switch on IT (the WLAN led should be lit). After you do this using FN + F9 key combination and activate the BT device.
    I guess that laptop will install some components and all components of BT will be displayed in the Device Manager.

  • Impossible to get from your screen to the user?

    Basically, I turn on my PC and when the time comes for me to choose a user click on the my profile icon. A few seconds later I'm back on the same page. It will not display the signs of user name and password, only the same user profile icons. I tried to restart and safe mode and others.

    What should I do?

    Note: if my password is necessary at some point some of my keys do not work with a key that is in my password. I usually use the touchscreen keyboard, but it is not available in safe mode and what not.

    Hi Kieran,

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

    If the Panel username and password is not displayed during logon and the problem persists even in safe mode, then the question could be if there is a corrupted file system or some third party conflicts.

    I suggest that you want to run auto repair with installation media and see if it helps you repair system files or not. For the execution of the task, I suggest you to try the steps below and see if it helps.

    Method 1

    When you use the recovery environment (Windows RE) to troubleshoot startup issues, first try the Startup Repair option in the System Recovery Options dialog box. If this does not resolve the problem, or if you have additional problems manually, use the Bootrec.exe tool.

    Because you cannot start the computer, you may need to create a bootable Windows installation media, and then do an auto repair, and if this does not help then you try to restore your computer to the previous date.

    Note: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    If you are using Windows 7 then the link provided below might help you to download and create installation media.

    Download Windows 7 Disk Images (ISO files)

    Method 2

    If the problem persists, try to rebuild the BCD by using the Bootrec.exe tool. To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows recovery environment (Windows RE) . To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Place the Windows 7 installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.
    2. Press a key when you are prompted. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.
    3. Click repair your computer.
    4. Click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
    5. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.
    6. Type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.

    See the following link for more information:

    How to use the Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows recovery environment to troubleshoot and repair startup issues in Windows

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/927392

    Hope it would help. If problem persists always post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.

  • Impossible to get mouse events to stop the drip

    Hi folks - I'm sure it's simple, but I just can't see IT... and you would appreciate the help.

    I have a lot of buttons on the top active movie clip (that is to say, it meets the mouse clicks). When I click on one of the buttons, as well as the script for the button is enabled, running the script below on the video too...

    How to stop what is happening? I know there is a function in AS3, but I'm only able to use AS1 or 2 here...

    I'm sure it's something simple, but I can't see it--I tried to put an another movieclip around the buttons and a dummy handler in that, but it makes no difference...

    Thanks for any help.
    theWoosh

    mouseUp and mouseDown are global events (in as2) and trigger no matter the location of the mouse (as long as it is during the stage).

    to raise a particular movieclip or button, use onRelease.

    However, the object will be intercept mouse so events (if your movieclip isn't the object that receives mouse events), you may need to use a mouseUp and a hitTest() to detect if mouseUp occurred while your movieclip.
