• Windows 7 won't let me change the settings to import images

  Hello
  I hope someone can help with this one!

  When I try to import images using Auto play "Import pictures and videos using windows" dialogue opens that gives me the choice of 'Mark' photos. The import settings"(in blue) shows also available to change the import settings but when I click it nothing happens? Out of curiosity I went to profiles, my partner profile has attempted to do the same thing and when I clicked on the "import setting" a new dialog box open for inviting me to make changes, I tried. So my question is:

  Why does Windows 7 let me not change my own profile import settings, and how do I reset the import settings?
  I have searched questions and knowledge base but cannot find an answer to my specific problem.
  Any help is appreciated!

  Hello

  I suggest to create a new user account and check. If it works in a new user account, then probably your user account have been damaged and would need a fix.

  Create a user profile.

• Windows 8 won't let me change the settings of Windows updates

  Hi, I'm changing my Windows Update settings from Automatic to Manual, but the option is not available in the Windows Update screen. I use my Live admin account not to claim, I also have a local administrator account and the same thing is happening: Windows Update settings cannot be changed. Attached photo...

  Intended to clarify, I'm not in any network, it is an Stand-alone Windows 8 processor ASUS TX300CA laptop and basically, I try to avoid the nagging Windows 8.1 update pop-up. There are programs that I use and which do not work well, or simply do not work on Windows 8.1 if I ever go back to Windows 8.

  Thanks in advance for your support

  

  First of all, you need to remove all that you have done to try to block the 8.1 update.  That is why it is said that your settings are "managed by an administrator", because the administrator (probably you) put in changes in your registry or policy settings to cause this.

  Or if you don't, then a virus did.  Because someone, or something, went in and changed your policy and registry settings.

  So if you don't, I recommend that you run system restore to undo the change unintentional, then run a full scan.

  I have a new laptop with windows 7 when I get on facebook games action lages and do not move smoothly is something I need to download or change the settings to make it work smoothly, it does only with games

  burningbush,
  It can also be a problem with the game running through Facebook server.  I noticed a difference in great step lately with Farmville on Facebook compared to when I started playing.  You should check to see if it seems to be the same on the other PC.  I noticed the problem on several machines in different places, so I know that it was not limited to a PC.

• How can I copy a full hard drive from Windows 7 Professional to a new laptop with Windows 7 pre-installed home?

  I have a laptop with Windows 7 Professional older and want to keep my programs and files intact and transfer to a new laptop, with Windows 7 Home, pre-installed.

  First try the image restore option. If that does not work, use your professional Windows 7 disc and boot from it, delete all partitions, then attempt to restore image.

  Don't forget: save your Home Premium installation before doing any of this.

• Windows Easy Transfer will not work for me between my old laptop with Windows XP and my new laptop with Windows 7.

  I am trying to transfer my files to my new laptop with Windows 7 for my old laptop with Windows XP Professional, using the Windows Easy Transfer, that I found on my old laptop.   I tried to make the transfer through my home wireless network and when that did not work...  I connected the two laptops with a cable (the same style of cable, used to connect his computer to a modem or router, not a cable SSB).

  So in summary, I just want to transfer all my files from my old laptop to my new laptop.   I copied the master file of my data from my old laptop on a "stick" assuming that I could download just to stick to the new laptop.  (I have a lot of "sticks" here.)   The idea did not work, of course, results otherwise wouldn't ask this question now.

  If you had previously copied simply data (documents folders) via a key files should be no problem during the copying of that stick to the library on win7 locations, and is there's this which is exactly the err MSG?

• I can't install my quickbooks 2010 on my new laptop with Windows 8

  Original title: Installation of quickbooks 2010 on Windows 8

  Help!  I can't install my quickbooks 2010 on my new laptop with Windows 8.  Does anyone know the tricks?

  It is a wrong answer to the question. QuickBooks 2010 cannot be installed from the CD because the CD tries to install Flash and Flash is already built into Windows 8. The solution is to download QuickBooks from Intuit web site and install the downloaded version. It installs without problem and works very well. Here is the link for reference: http://support.quickbooks.intuit.com/support/Articles/INF12417

• I sent a song to someone in a different country and it won't let me change the recipient, even if she has not been redeemed yet.

  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.
