• Move the desktop icons after the release of the games

  First of all, I would like to say that I read this question and answer: http://goo.gl/MkSVA but I think I have a scenario different some - which may require a different response.

  When I'm in a game and I want to leave a moment, I press Ctrl + ESC to get to my office. on most games, this doesn't cause any problems. On some games, when I'm on the desktop my icons have been moved. Running the game I play on the correct resolution.
  My resolution is 1366 x 768, and I have a second monitor which is 1024 x 768. I think that the second screen resolution may be the cause of the problem.
  I am running Windows 7 64 bit.
  When I unplug my second monitor, I can see the icons on my desktop get smaller so I know that the monitor is something the resolution of my laptop screen.
  Please help me solve this problem!

• El capitan cannot move all windows to new desktop PC via mission control?

  Before moving to El Capitan, I used to be able to move all open windows in any program given to a new office in total.

  for example assume I have Stickies and Safari opened in the same space, I want to spend all my notes at the same time to a new office space and let Safari; I used to be able to slide just with 3 fingers to show all programs open in this space and click on Stickies icon and drag it to a new space. Now, I can just drag a single sticky both. Obviously, this is just one example, the same applies to any other program with multiple items open at once.

  Am I missing something, or this option is simply gone?

  Thank you

  I have not tested but make sure that 'Windows group by application' are enabled in the settings of Mission control.

• Windows XP SP3: Unable to start, System Restore cannot drag and drop ALL the files/folders on the desktop and applications, many unable to start, services cannot search, cannot copy or transfer the any files folders...

  After a recent power outage, my system has restarted with a weird and very common Windows problems range. The system boots fine, all my personal files/folders/apps are intact, have suddenly stopped almost all functions of applications, but many crucial functions of the Windows kernel. Everything seems to point to several Windows Services are unable to start (administrative tools on the start menu). I am running Win XP SP3 and that he was going to upgrade to Windows 7, but I wanted to backup everything in advance. As I have 29 000 hours on my C: drive and a lot of time invested in my system, files, and applications, I am extremely reluctant to risk losing my files and applications by performing any type of reinstalling Windows. Strangely, begin to almost all my apps and all my files are accessible for the most part, but I've lost the ability to drag and drop files, folders or items in a list within the applications COMPLETELY. I can't copy or paste anything, can't move the desktop icons (although I can create new files and folders). So at the moment I can't save anything or even a single file transfer to a hard drive on another storage medium. Immediate reaction: try safe mode and try the system restore safe mode has the same problems (likely due to the large number of system services that inexplicably refuses to start) and the system restore says an error window saying "system restore is not able to protect your computer at this time. try restoring the system running and restart again", which of course NEVER changes. It's the equivalent of getting a tire on your car in the middle of nowhere to find the spare tire flat and the missing Jack. I have used to be fanatical about the definition of the regular restore points, but now can not access them. I have backups of most of my personal files, but over years have lost most of the original installation CD for many of my applications (there are over 100 applications on my system) and I don't want to lose the file associations and architecture of directory tree that it took my so long to implement. I started with Win XP media center edition of first (circa 2004 or almost) and have migrated twice more of 3 hard disks and 2 computers. All this time (5 years of daily use), I have NEVER known so many malfunctions for as many Windows basic and vital functions at the same time. I tried a lot of 3rd party "windows fix - it / registry repair" apps, all have no effect. Everything I can speculate is there was some serious damage to the registry and have no idea how/why so many Services refuse to start. In MMC, more than half of the services actually start and run, the rest all give the error message "the service or dependencies is not start (error 1068).» In addition, very oddly, no. APPS or windows appear in the toolbar AT ALL, but the Quick Launch toolbar works very well, just like the tray button and start tasks (?! )!). If I reduce a window, it "disappears" (Nothing on the task bar), but I can restore it using the alt - tab keyboard shortcut to switch apps, so all applications/windows appear on the list of the Task Manager. A few apps is paralyzed bad, as the player windows media, itunes, etc. (I guess because the service windows audio can not not start), some won't start at all, but 90% of them work fine, except to try to copy or back up all files. I can create new files, however. I'm desperate to find a solution to repair XP3 Win WITHOUT losing my installed applications and files, before I try and switch to WIndows 7. Any help/suggestions/links/advice would be much appreciated. I'm an experienced user, but I've never met so many malfunctions based on the OS at a time. I, however, very painfully learned (years before that my system so complex) it's been almost a re-installation of Windows guarantees to lose my installed apps and files, the directory tree architecture associations.

  Help, please!

  I'll be honest with you - your message is so difficult to read that I don't bother to go through all that. Next time consider using white space, ball or points numbered, etc. to make your message more readable. I stopped reading after your first sentence and only scanned the rest quickly. I do not mean to hurt your feelings; just trying to help you get targeted answers you need for the future.

  The blackout has corrupted your Windows installation. Back up your data now. Since you have problems so much, it would be probably best is to remove the hard drive, put it in a USB drive enclosure and attach it to another computer to copy the data OR start the target with Linux Livecd such as Knoppix system and copy the data to an external hard drive. IOW, do not use the damaged windows to try to get your data.

  You can try a repair that will leave your programs and facility data intact, but with this widespread bribery, it is unlikely to work. However, it takes only a few minutes and is so worth a try. If the repair facility does not work there is nothing to do, but a clean install. And Yes, it will mean that over again.

  Consider buying a UPS to help prevent future damage by power outages. For a single computer, you should look for one in the area of $60 to 80. A more expensive UPS is not necessary. Another good disaster recovery strategy is to buy an external hard drive and Acronis True Image. You can image your system (and can make an incremental backup image so that your image is still current). You can apply your image and be back running that you were in relatively few minutes after a hard drive or Windows to fail.

• How can I prevent the desktop icons move arround whenever a different profile is open?

  We have windows vista with 2 user profiles that are the main ones used.

  How can I add/remove/move the desktop icons on my profile without moving/remove on the profile of other people?

  What is the point of having 2 different profiles, so everything I do on my effects profile profile of others?

  also is it possible to add/remove programs (games, downloads) without doing the same for the other profile of people?

  Hi JexterMaxim,

  1. what type of user accounts that you use?
  2. don't you log on as an administrator?
  3. don't you make changes to the agreement of the issue occur?

  When you install a program, you will need to select the installation option in particular only to user accounts. Not in user accounts. You can try the following steps.

  Desktop shortcuts are stored in one of two places:
  (a) in c:\Users\Public\Desktop. These shortcuts are shared and are visible to the user ever.
  (b) in c:\Users\UserName\Desktop. These shortcuts are not shared and are visible to the user.

  When you right click on a shortcut, and then click general, then you can see where this particular shortcut is stored.

  To make a shortcut of the group a) visible to yourself, do this method:
  a. drag the shortcut to the side with the right button of the mouse.
  b. Select "copy". You have now two seemingly identical shortcuts.
  c. delete the original shortcut.

• Virtual keyboard rearranges the desktop icons

  Hello, everyone,

  I have ACER Iconia W510 tablet and I am in love with her. It is the most useful computer I've had since the dawn of computers with machine mainframe IBM 360.

  A few days ago I met a problem: whenever the virtual keyboard appears, he climbs all the icons on the desktop and makes a mess. It wasn't like that before - the keyboard did not affect the desktop icons. No doubt some update caused this change.

  How can I return the tablet to its previous state or the DΘsactiver the virtual keyboard to move the desktop icons?

  Hello, I just found the solution. The virtual keyboard has a button to the right for full screen or window. Full screen duration upped everything in his path.

• We need notifications for email and messages on the desktop

  Hello

  I just found out how to see the notifications, but I don't think they are convenient.

  Is it possible to receive notifications on the Destkop? It would be nice to have a counter of unread for example emails and a message counter.

  Thank you all for Firefox OS! I love this OS.

  Best wishes

  Hol

  Hi joseph.vidal.rosset,
  I'm glad to hear you like Firefox OS! I understand that you want to move the desktop notifications. Currently, there is no option to customize notifications.

  I don't know if there's an app on the market that do that, but you can change all notifications to not appear on the home screen of the setting menu by pressing the Notification. In order to change notifications for new e-mail, tap e-mail account on the three bars on the left menu, click on the gear and then click the name of the account. From there on, there will be an option to disable the new e-mail notifications.

  If you have any other questions on how to use Firefox OS, we are happy to help you.

• I disconnected cable PCI-GPIB (desktop disabled) to move the equipment, once reconnected and restarted Desktop, I can't connect to the instruments more (OS Windows XP)

  Hi people,

  I hope someone can help me with this problem. I am running a Windows XP operating system where I have recently been using a NI PCI-GPIB to connect to instruments. The other day, I had to turn off the desktop computer to disconnect the GPIB cable to move the material furniture - I do not remember if I had turned off equipment that were connected via GPIB cable before removing the GPIB cable from the desktop.

  Although I came to notice that he was in loose in the socket connection that it can be disconnected from the never removed the GPIB card slot. Now with etc-reconnected GPIB cable is unconnected with the instruments via the software I use--I don't see the equipment listed on MAX either. I had NEITHER-488. 2 installed v2.8 and following this issue and various changes to try to solve it (for example, move to another location, System Restore to previous restore point I knew the connection work etc.). I upgraded to 2.8.1 V and still the same issue.

  In Device Manager, there is a pilot 'unknown device' I have tried to update and no will - I even tried him assigning driver for the NI PCI-GPIB card that seemed to have worked but still no will.

  Appreciate your help on this.

  Chris

  have you checked that the GPIB card is secure in its niche in the PC?

• Move the icons on the Windows 7 Desktop

  When I used to move icons on the desktop in Windows XP, there is a picture of the shadow of the icon and title following my mouse pointer. This allowed me to know exactly where the icon would be when I released the mouse button. Now all I get in Windows 7 is the pointer of the mouse and a little black dotted rectangle attached to it that moves with him. The only time I see where the actual icon will meet is when I release the mouse button, and it seems to be unpredictable as to exactly where it is. Can someone tell me how to restore the previous behavior, where I can see a shadow of the icon to move with the mouse cursor?

• Is it possible to only use the keyboard to move a window on the desktop?

  I have a lot of fun trying to do it all with just the keys and trackpad not.  One that I'm missing and it would be very useful would be to find a way to move windows with just the use of keys.  I expect the arrows would be involved, but to do something about the window I want to move.

  I believe you can use the best tool to touch (http://www.bettertouchtool.net) to assign keyboard shortcuts to move the windows.

• How to get an icon on the Desktop Web. I have windows 7 and 8 on different computers.

  I asked this question repeatedly in stores and friends and tells me that it is possible by clicking on the web address, however, it would seem that Firefox does not happen because I was only able to do so far. I used to be able to do it on Xp but now find it impossible. I use this facility to allow me to access a web page immediately instead of having to go through the search or a bookmark. I'm having the same problem with windows 8 on a different machine.
  Any help would be appreciated.

  There are several way to do.

  • 1 hold down the left mouse on the icon in the address bar, and then move the icon on your desktop and let go.
  • 2 deskCut {web link}
    This extension adds creation of shortcut on the desktop in the menu popup-Windows, Linux and Mac.

• can't resize the window of firefox, so I can create the shortcut on the desktop

  I don't know how to resize the window smaller, it only makes the impression of the page to the smallest, on the page, not the whole outline of the page, so I can move the symbol to put on the desktop! I used the page resizing in the menu, is there another way to do it? Thank you

  You can see the 3 buttons at the top right of the window frame: (_) to minimize, maximize/restore, close (X)? If these buttons are not visible, Firefox may be in mode "full screen". The F11 key toggles between the normal modes and full screen.

  When you use the middle button on the title bar that toggles between maximized and resizable, is visible in the lower right of the Firefox window? If so, you should be able to click and drag up and to the left to resize the Firefox window. If it is off the screen, you should be able to resize the window in two steps: drag the upper left corner of the window down and to the right, and then drag the window to the top of the screen.

  Not sure it's the right answer, but please give it a try.
