Menu start no longer displays options to shut down the computer, someone knows how to change that?   The power options menu did not help.

When this happened to me, it was malware that didn't stop my computer, probably because she wanted to do something with it. I held the power button down until the computer is turned off manually, then I rebooted in safe mode - I run Vista - and ran some virus and malware programs until I found the beast and it crashed. You can also run a scan MS online at onecare.live.com, which was updated earlier this week. Moreover, I had not any data loss or permanent damage.

  • Sony NEX - 3 does someone knows how to change the language of the menu?

    Hello. bought an invisible viewfinder of the NEX-3... it turns out that the case was too good to be true, because it is a Japanese model (takes great photos!) Downloaded the NEX - 3V5_Update1112a.exe, but do not want the camera in brick. Am I able to run firmware update so that it will turn the menu in English? If not, how I'm able to get the camera to disply the menu in English?

    Hey yliess thanks for the comments. It's what the English user manual said, so on the right track... in the menu of the camera is in Japanese, it is a challenge to follow in English. Went on to translate the instructions below for Japanese but could not match the characters. Assuming that the menu options are in the same place, please let me know how many choices for scroll down in the 'Menu' then? 3? up to "Setup" then? 3? up to "Main Settings" then? 2? Up to "language".

  • Thunderbird 31.0 starts dislaying a subfolder instead of the Inbox. Reset did not help. How can I return to the view from the Inbox to the startup?

    Last night I closed my eyes while in a subfolder. Today, TB starts in this subfolder and I can't go back to the Inbox.

    I know that my Inbox is still because it appears for about 1/3 of a second at startup, then the subfolder. In addition, by using a search, I can find a message received yesterday.

    I couldn't find a solution in the help of Mozilla or even Googling the problem files. I am sure that the solution is obvious and I will probably feel stupid when I learn the answer!

    When your issue has been resolved can mark this thread as "solved" Please?

  • our and twitch.tv do load properly (no content displayed) deleted the cookies/cache, nodnsprefetch, no proxy, safe mode, did not help!

    our and twitch.tv do load properly (no content displayed) deleted the cookies/cache, nodnsprefetch = true, ensured that no proxy, safe mode, did not help!
    The approximate layout works very well, but the real tv-content (contraction) or the real message (ggroups) texts will not be displayed. Also, by clicking on the wheel of preferences in ggroups will display a small empty box instead of a drop-down list filled with stuff.
    The pages all work properly in chrome.

    Note that youtube and google search normal, pages provider freemail, news pages and basically all the other pages I can think of work normally and 100%!

    I use linux 64-bit, firefox 22. However, this problem is not new, it's happened with older versions of ff too. I'm just tired of pulling up chrome every time, so I decided to report it here for a solution.

    Well, after you move a large number of files and the contents of the file autour, I found a solution:

    Delete the line
    user_pref ("dom.storage.enabled", false);
    of prefs.js solved the problem.

    Thank you.

  • Whenever I have shut down my computer I comnnection in bulk for my printers and having to reconnect again when I start-up

    I have two printers (HP G85 & Konica Minolta 2500W magicvolor) on a small business connected by ethernet network and other cable series. The network server is managed by Windows XP Pro V2002 SP3I and I have access to the network through one of the two laptops Toshiba Tecra to operate Windows Vista Business SP1. My problem only occurs on one of the laptops (the other works fine). The problem is not always consistent and often causes different symptoms.

    When starting the printer seems to be online and connected, however when I send a print to the system command accepts the order (or nothing at all), but the print window displays an error message after a few minutes. When I check the printer proerties sometimes I'm not able to display the port information at all. I have to cancel the print order, remove the printer from the network and 'Add printer' again. I send the print command and the printer now prints. Sometimes the print command works normally and sometimes, it takes a long time to print and the printer very very time consuming to complete the task from start to finish.

    Now, I have added the printer once again I lose the connection again when I shut down the computer and must go through the same drama when I start again. The problem is that with a single computer.

    grhilly,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Answers community forums.
