My computer won't let me change the setting of region DVD in the region 1 - I get a message saying that I need admin priviledge
Hello
(1) I wanted to play a UK DVD on my computer so I changed the region setting in properties in the United Kingdom (region 2)
(2) it did not work
(3) I tried to change my setting back to the United States, so I can play other DVDs (region 1)
(4) it will not change (the "administrative privileges" message)
(5) my computer doesn't read DVD
Hi jeremyjones1960,
- How many times to change the region settings of the DVD drive on the computer?
- You are logged in Windows by using the administrator account?
Check and make sure that you logged in to the administrator account and check if it helps.
If you have changed the settings for region of the DVD player more than 5 times then you will not be able to change more.

I worked on the Web site of our Church and all of a sudden this week, my computer does not connect to the site. I get a message saying that the connection to the server was reset while the page is loading. Can anyone has any ideas on how I fix?
The error message "the connection was reset" can be caused by a bug for the attack of the BEAST fix (browser exploit against SSL/TLS) that the server does not support.

Im trying to fill the network so my ps2 connections can use the signal wireless to my laptop running vista Basic. When I click to bridge, I get a message saying that I need at least 2 internet connections. is this in any way about this?
Hi Jer9009,
Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.
· Could you give the exact error code or error number you get?
To connect multiple computers, install a network adapter in each and run a network CAT5 cabling to connect each one to a hub (and thus the other.) The computer that will serve as a transition will have a standard network card for wired and a wireless network adapter that will connect to the wireless (WAP) access point or gateway on the second network.
A network bridge is software or hardware that connects two networks or more so that they can communicate. You can create only a single bridge network on a computer, but a bridge can handle any number of network connections.
For more information, see the link: create a network bridge:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Create-a-network-bridge

When I download the application manager to update, I get an error message saying that the "failed initialize" and that I have to download some software more to detect the problem, but that software is no longer there. That question apparently started spontaneously after no problems at all for a month or two.
start at the top and work your way down to apply applicable patches until your problem is solved.
If (win) cc: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-application-failed.html
If your error is:
"Setup failed to initialize. File not found. ' or 'could not initialize installation. This could be due to missing files.
first of all, rename folder OOBE OOBE.old.
to find the OOBE:
Win 64 bit OS: Program Files x86\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
Win 32 bit OS: Program Files \Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
Mac os: HD > library > application support of > adobe > caps
Mac os: USER > library > application support of > adobe > OOB
If it fails or isn't the exact error you see, uninstall, clean (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) and reinstall.
If you use an installation dvd:
Copy the contents of the drive in a desktop folder and install from this directory.
If you are using a mac:
1. try to create a new user account in Mac with administrator privileges.
2. connect to the new user, navigate to Mac HD > Application > utilities > Adobe Installer folder, locate products such as Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Adobe Air and uninstall the
3. navigate to the user library > Application Support > Adobe and Adobe put in the trash.
4. navigate to Mac HD > library > Application Support > Adobe and Adobe put in the trash.

my computer won't let me change the name of my images / files
I race 2007 on my PC with windows XP, home when I try to rename my pictures or records what happens with if you go ahead and change the name of the folder/file/photo will be, how to fix it. Thank you
Hi horseygal,
I think that what is happening because you also delete the file from the file extension.
For example, you have an image file named "image.jpg" and you rename to 'image' ".jpg" is deleted which means that the file will lose its connection with the program, which is designed to open it.
You can hide the file extensions by:
1. Select start > my computer
2. click on tools > Folder Options
3. go to the view tab and check "Hide extension for known file types".
4. click on OK -

Firefox 3.5.1 running Vista stopped work, no error message. Tried to uninstall and install the updated version. Download the message that I first need to close Firefox, but it is not obviously executed.
This has happened
Don't know how many times
I restored my system to an earlier date, December 2009
User Agent
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; Trident/4.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0; OfficeLiveConnector.1.3; OfficeLivePatch.0.0; Dealio Toolbar 3.1.1; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30618; NET4.0C; AskTbWCL/5.8.0.12304)
Firefox can not run visibly, but is probably running in the background. It is in the Task Manager. To access the Task Manager go to Start and type in taskmgrsearch field. This will open the process task manager. Then go to the tab processes and end firefox.exe. After the end of this process, close the Task Manager and try to re-run the installation/uninstallation.

I am the administrator of the computer and the computer won't let me access the list allow and block my child's account. I'll bring my parental control password, click on my childs account, put parental controls, go to web filter and click on block some web sites, click on edit the allow and block list and the computer tells me that it is not able to make changes to parental controls settings and see the system administrator if the problem persists.
Hi Ranw,
· What is the error message when you try to change parental controls?
· Have you been able to make any changes on this computer from your account earlier?
You can follow the steps below and check if you can make changes to the parental controls on your computer.
Step 1:
Disable UAC (User Account Control) and check the result. Access the link below and follow the steps to disable UAC.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-user-account-control-on-or-off
Note: You must restart your computer when you enable or disable UAC. Change levels of notification does not require that you restart your computer.
Step 2:
I suggest to create a new administrator account and log later in the new administrator account, try to set parental controls and check if it works.
Create a user account:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Create-a-user-account
Check out the link below to check if the parental control is properly set:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/set-up-parental-controls
I hope this helps. Let us know the result.

I sent a song to one of my friends who live in Canada, while I'm in the United States and I didn't know that it wasn't going to work. She was not able to buy since she lives outside the United States, but it won't let me change the recipient. Is it possible that I can change the recipient or even recover my $1.29? Thank you.

What happens when you try to change your country on your account, you follow these instructions: change your iTunes Store country or region - Apple Support ? While in Spain, you can only use the Spanish store, and you can use a card issued by a Spanish bank (and who is registered in the same name and address you put on your account)
