Just to upgrade to Vista, need help with downloads

I just upgrade to Windows Vista, which I know not at all.  I can't open all downloads at all.  How can I change my settings?

Using Internet Explorer version 7 or 8 as your browser?  How do you download files (here is some information on the download: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Downloading-files-from-the-Internet-frequently-asked-questions)?

So, I understand that you are able to download the files or folders, but once downloaded, you can not open or load them.  When you download to?  Try to download them to the desktop (which is the easiest to work with, and you usually have rights to full access to this place - you can always switch the download where you want when you are finished).  To open the file right click on the executuale file, and then click Run as administrator to see if that helps (which can be useful for certain types of downloads such as executables).

What exactly are you trying to download?  What file types (the extension after the file name 3-digit)?  You can open anything or did some files that you can not open?  Can you download new programs and run (try to install Adobe Acrobat Reader: http://get.adobe.com/reader/).

You are logged in as a standard user or administrator - so as standard user, logoff and log in as administrator and try again.  You don't have sufficient rights as a standard user.

What antivirus do you use (is it Norton)?  If you continue to have the problem, try to disable the program to a single file, and then try to open it and see if it works.  If so, then you have the too tight program parameters and the need to adjust in order to work.

There are many other possible problems and solutions, but we will try these first and see what happens.  They can also give you some ideas.

If none of these solutions work, appointments on the Forum Internet Explorer (http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/InternetExplorer/threads) where people who specialize in IE (including downloads and open) will be more than happy to help you with your problem.

Good luck! Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.

  • Need help with downloading driver WLAN for Satellite A100 (PSAA9)

    Hello!

    I should update the drivers for my Satellite A100 (PSAA9) according to the last email received by Toshiba. Check it HERE

    However, I am not sure they are the right ones for my Intel(r) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG. The download page includes not 3945ABG, but only Wireless 3945.

  • Need help with downloading a player to play MKV files

    Original title: MKV files

    Please can someone advise if there is a program that I can download safe while I am able to play the DVD with mkv. content?

    My operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

    Thank you

    Chris

    Hi Chris;

    All you need is a set of codec files reflecting the MKV format to use audio/video stream. The codecare like translators who take the image video format and encode or decode for viewing in your favorite media player. I would recommend that you download and install K-Lite Codec pack from here.

    Download K-Lite Codec Pack

    Get either the Standard or complete package to halfway to the bottom of the page. There is a package tailor-made for 64-bit if your Windows 7 is that the flavor. The 64-bit package is not always necessary, as most of the programs are still 32-bit. There is also this set of reliable codecs.

    Windows Essentials Media Codec Pack

    Another video player is not necessary, but if you decide to get one, I recommend the free VLC Player but beware of the source that you pick up all this because it is open source and easily modified into something that you don't want. Here is a link to the "official" site
  • need help with downloading Photoshop12

    I tried to download Photoshop 12 three times.  Can someone tell me what I could do wrong.  He said something like needing to have all the files in a folder?

    You can download a free trial here and activate with your series, http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements

    or if you follow the 7 steps you can directly download a free trial here: http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html

    and activate it with your serial number.

    If you have a problem downloading, you follow the 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.

    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow the steps 1, 2, and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system, allowing you to download the correct version of the adobe.com site).

    Unable to obtain the cookie translates into an error page displayed after clicking on a link on prodesigntools.com

  • need help with downloading applications

    Hi I am trying to download some creative Cloud applications and he goes on to say that it has been downloaded already, but will not be displayed on my folder of the application. I installed a trial version but maybe he deleted things that it was already installed. Any help would be amazing.

    Thank you!

    Hi student-panda,

    Please run creative tool cloud cleanser and then launch CC desktop applications. It should solve the problem.

  • need help with download "regular" PS CS6

    I bought Ps CS6 in dec. My computer crashed.  I want to download PsCS6 once again, now I have the new computer.  I bought only "regularly" Ps, not the long version.  How do I download just as the regular version?  I only seem to be able to find the long version.  (I intend, once downloaded to enter my license/serial number, that's why I think that I have the correct version).

    There is only one version available for download, labeled extended. This is the evaluation version because Adobe marketing wants you to trial the full enlarged version in the hope that you will buy it.

    Finally installed Standard or extended version is determined by your serial number during the installation.

    The downloadable version is always labeled expanded but will return to the Standard version, once you enter your serial number of the Standard version.

  • Is there a default value for the color management in PSE10? Beautiful photos from iPhoto, but blur with elements. I need help with this before as I consider that the upgrade to PSE13 and beyond.

    Is there a default value for the color management in PSE10? Beautiful photos from iPhoto, but blur with elements. I need help with this before as I consider that the upgrade to PSE13 and beyond.

    Printing which forms an angle seems ok, but one that is horizontally seems faded, incomplete.

    I was wondering if I saved a layer somewhere and set it as a default value.

    If you group the layers, you will be left with a single layer, thus spreading your concern.

    Suggest that you do the following:

    1. Make sure you have the latest drivers for your printers
    2. Reset the default preferences.

    Hold the Alt, Ctrl + Shift keys when you click the icon to open the items. When asked if you want to delete the settings file, say Yes.

    Items nearby and let regenerate the file.

    Need help with windows defender. all my files folders pictures everythiing disappeared and I find myself with this black screen and it is not all good: o)

    How Windows Defender is on this problem?

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    See you soon.
