  • We cannot turn a few photos in Windows 7 (but can turn others)

    Hi all. I can not turn some pictures I recently copied to my iPhone on my hard drive.

    I have them copied to my iPhone 4s to my PC Windows 7 to an images subfolder.  I can see everything without problems.  If I highlight photos private need rotating, right-click, "Turn clockwise", then sometimes the images will turn successfully.  But sometimes, I get an error saying "you cannot rotate this image. The file may be in use or open in another program, or the file or the folder may be read-only. "Before I got my iPhone 4s, I had no problem of rotating images.  I'm a little doubtful that the new phone / iOS5 is somehow to blame, because it is not attached to the computer, but who knows.

    The files are not read-only.  I tried to do a clean boot to minimize the number of running processes, but I can not even turn some of my images.  Someone at - it other clues what that could be the problem, or how I could sue him?  Thank you...

    Just transfer all the photos you took for a a file on windows (as you would if you back up your iphone / ipad to your computer) and open the file using Windows Office Picture Manager. This program is included as part of the suite Microsoft so it was free for me. I'm running windows vista choose to see the file 'point of view miniature"the small box with 4 small rectangles top just under the shortcuts menu command. You can see all the photos in the folder. You can now individually rotate photos or highlight a bunch of them and turn them both using the rotation button up on top. Its a button with triangles too little about it. One of the triangles is laid on its side. Then press 'save' and voila! All your photos are now saved right side upwards. I didn't experience any sacrifice of quality photos or changes. I hope this provides more clarity. These links have some add ' info on Office picture manager.

  • my wifi is disabled and I cannot turn it back on

    Hello

    I have an Acer Aspire TimelineU Ultra Book.  I downloaded Windows 8 in January.  I've not had problems with it before, but when I went to look for on the internet today, it showed that I was not connected to a wifi network.  When I went to connect to my wifi at home it read that my wifi had been extinguished.  I went into the settings and click on the section 'Wireless' and read 'Airplane Mode' has been turned off and when I went to turn on my wifi it won't let me.  It of kind of highlighted in gray and will not respond when I click it.  What is going on?  I want to just my wifi back.

    Thank you

    Cassie

    There seems to be a known bug in the BIOS for Acer Aspire where the Fn + F3 key will turn on and outside airplane mode, but the WiFi is grayed out (disabled). See the video below for a description of the problem and solution.

    I don't know how you will get the update of the BIOS of the computer, without having to download, but you should be able to transfer via USB stick or SD card if you have another computer available with internet connection.

  • My computer was working fine and then when I turn it back on I am connected under a temporary profile what do I do to fix this?

    Today while I was in class, my computer has started very well and I was able to work on it as usual. When the class was done, I saved my job and turn the computer off. Not even 10-15 minutes later, I turn on my computer turn it on again to finish my job and it takes ages to start. When that finally happens, it connects me under a temporary profile. None of my school work, photos, music or whatever it is is nowhere to be found. I tried to do the repair option that is offered with the starting system normally and nothing. I also tried the system restore twice at an earlier date and its doesn't work simply do not. Recommendations on how to do, and if my files can be saved? The photos I mean a lot to me and I have midterms and all my work is saved on my profile = - /... Ouch!

    To avoid problems of access to the file:

    1. in safe mode, copy the files into the documents, pictures and music in C:\Users\Public folders.
    2. Enter the new profile in normal mode and move public folders files in folders of your new profile.

  • cannot log in to Firefox v. 12, but with c. 11 can connect

    I've recently updated for Firefox c. 12, and I can no longer connect to our Web site. I went through all the steps of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Cannot%20log%20in%20to%20websites?e=es & as = aaq
    but in vain. Still cannot connect. He had no problem with the previous version of Firefox. The server log indicates only that an attempt to open a session was made, but not completed. There are no errors.

    I modified the code of our /modules/basex/ext-basex.js after the suggestion of one of the Mozilla developers who worked on the bug I posted.

    Source file: http://hudesktopdevel.hucompute.org/modules/basex/ext-basex.js
    Online: 1010
    > ('timeout' r) & & (r.timeout = callback.timeout);
    It should be something like:
    options. Async & & (r 'timeout') & & (r.timeout = callback.timeout);

    This solved our problem! Connection now works 12 Firefox, and he continues to work in other browsers. Perhaps, this can be the suggested fix for Extjs 3 users who have problems connecting with Firefox 12.

  • There was a story on the "back" arrow a tiny small downstairs Click arrow where I could choose a specific page of the past to return. He saves hit it and reload the old pages that I want to jump. What can I do now?

    in the upper left corner of the toolbar, there is a 'back' arrow and an arrow "forward." before the latest version of the software update to firefox, I used a teeny tiny "down arrow" who was to the right of the "arrow". When I clicked on the little arrow 'down', he showed me a list of all the pages that had recently been opened; not only can a website I visited, but all pages I had sailed on this Web site. I used the arrow 'down' as a shortcut to return to a specific page, to have to click the arrow on the "return", like ten times or more. I really, really, really like for you to put this feature on the back, or tell me what I can do instead. Thank you.

    Click with the right button on the Back / Forward buttons for a list of visited sites.

    You can also install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/ which will give you the back of the small arrow.

  • in version 4, readability has no icon; I checked the bar of the Add on, but nothing happens. How can I get that back?

    After you install Firefox 4, I noticed that the logo of readability (R) was no longer at bottom of the page click on to make a long article on a clean page. I reinstalled it - still no logo. So I read on your site that now there is a 'bar of the add-on', and to make it visible you click in the box of the tabs and verify - I did it - not the module bar appears and no readability — what now? How to bring back readability or do I go back to a previous version of Firefox?

  • My fan turns a lot all of a sudden. Nothing has changed. Can't find any help on mine.

    Hello.  Use this laptop every day since the purchase.  Today fan started running and it will not stop.  It's never happened before.  I do not have a separate on it cooling fan but this is on a round stand which is raised 4 inches from the base.  Impossible to find info on my own.  It is not a problem of closure.  It's just the race nonstop.

    I tried all the options of the computer and several of your Web site.

    I want only know why it runs so suddenly and it isn't because it's hot here.  I keep the House at 60 degrees.

    Everything works fine apart from this.

    Curiosity and do I have a problem or not?

    Thanx

    Explorer is required to do something on the PC. Without the Windows Explorer (not to be confused with Internet Explorer), you can't access your files.

    I guess you got IE and Spider Solitaire opens when you watched? If this isn't the case, then you have something else pending, such as possible malware.

    If you search Google or Bing for your laptop brand and model, you can find a Service and maintenance manual for it that will describe how to get to the fan and the heat sink. If it is too involved (I got a HP DV9000, which had to be completely disassembled to clean), you might be able to use a can of compressed air to blow through the airway to get some build up out of it. If you are back blowing through it, make sure that the laptop is off.

    If you need help finding a service manual, post your brand and model here, and someone may have access to one and would be willing to share.
    Good luck with it and we keep abreast :-)
