my shortcut folders disappear and I can't disable the cleanup of unused shortcuts on the new computer windows 7
my shortcut folders disappear and I can't disable the cleanup of unused shortcuts on the new computer windows 7
I have a lot of shortcuts I need readily available and it is very annoying when they disappear without my wanting to do. I spent hours looking for an answer and I can't change the setting on the maintenance of the system 'clean up unused and shortcuts files' - but some missing I have used very recently - in the last week - so no reason for them to be cleaned - I tink im going to send this back stupid computer and get an Apple!
I never had this problem with windows XP - windows 7 is rubbish if I can't disable this fundamental thing.

I got a new computer (an old dies) new a windows vista and I have to disable the old computer before I load the same copy of Vista on my new computer. If yes how can I do this?
If Vista is preinstalled on your OLD computer, it is classified as an OEM license and is not transferable.
The license of Vista OEM is related to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptopIf a license of Vista at retail, you can transfer it to another computer/laptop.
But it can only be installed on one computer at a time.A single license is a single Installation.
If it is a retail Vista license, read the information on the clean install and then reactivate it:
http://www.theeldergeekvista.com/vista_clean_installation.htm
A tutorial on the use of a clean install

Super Guide Windows Vista Installation
After installation > go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/notebook > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > get latest Vista drivers for it > download/install them.
See you soon.

I recently downloaded the Lightroom upgrade but the old version remains the default Lightroom Application on my laptop and I can only access the new version through the Adobe icon at the top of the screen. How can I get the new version of 'replace' the old?
Try to uninstall the old version - it is not necessary. An upgrade is a product independent and fully functional.

I bought Lightroom 5 of B & H Photo a few months ago and since then have now upgraded computers. This new computer doesn't have a hard drive and I can't figure out how to download it on my new computer. I must not have created an Adobe account when I initially purchased and downloaded on my other computer. How can I still download it if the serial number does not appear in my plans and products page? I still have the drive and everything that came with it.
Hello
Please download the Lightroom 5 application from the link below.

* Original title: Windows Media PLayer
I have Windows Media Player version 12 installed but when you try to play .mp4 files in WMP, I hear the sound but the picture is distorted and I can't see the picture. Please see image attached.
Even if I see that I can change the version of the file in a different format, I have the same problem with videos on websites that I can not of course change the format before playing these.
I managed to fix the problem for about 20 minutes by flattening my computer re - install the operating system and this resolved until all updates have been through, and then it disappeared again. I tried many codecs packs and this still does not help.
My system is running Windows 7 and Media Player version is 12.0.7601.18840, which tells me that Media Player is the most recent version.
Please can someone help?
Open uninstall a program in windows and in the left click on the feature to turn on or off windows. Clear the check box of the window Media Player, and then click ok. This will uninstall the drive, and then restart.
After restarting the same steps, now, check the box for the same and perform a restart and if all goes well it should solve the problem.
Note: Make sure that Windows is up-to-date.

Toolbar in Dreamweaver suddenly disappeared and I can't open the files with Dreamweaver
I use Dreamweaver CS5. I use it almost everyday and have for several years.
Suddenly, when I opened Dreamweaver, the elements of the toolbar (file, Windows tools) are not displayed, and when I try to open a file using Dreamweaver from the Finder, nothing past is. The application seems to open but nothing does not appear or work.
A few days ago I had to restore everything from Time Machine after a hardware solution from Apple. Dreamweaver has worked well for a few hours, and then it happened...
I just uninstalled and reinstalled Dreamweaver - no difference.
Does someone understand what could be the problem? Maybe a few small adjustments, extension or file?
I would try to empty the cache memory program: removing a corrupt cache file
Then the restore Prefs if the above does not work: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/restore-preferences-dreamweaver-cs4-cs5.html
Then reinstall cleaning if does not work: use of the cleaning tool CC to solve installation problems | CC, CS3 - CS6

Hello, firefox 22 is now about the density of pixels you have upgraded to system in Control Panel > appearance > display. more information about this is available at http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/make-the-text-on-your-screen-larger-or-smaller
If you want to set the text size/pixel density in firefox is different that your system settings as it has been addressed in previous versions, enter about: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named layout.css.devPixelsPerPx. Double-click it and change its value to 1.0 (or any zoom factor that suits your needs; -1.0 is the default and will respect the parameters of the system).

I would like this option completely removed because now it is easy to have two windows open, a private, as usual, and we can watch more easily inappropriate things by quickly closing the private browsing session, so I think I can't control my child activities as easily...
You cannot change the menu bar on Mac as can be done on other platforms such as Windows and Linux via userChrome.css code or with an extension as the menu editor.
On Mac, the menu bar is maintained by the Mac OS and so out of reach of the adaptations. -
How can I disable the firewall of windows for FPGA
I tried to compile an FPGA vi. Towards the end of compilation, asked me if I wanted to disable something in the windows firewall (probably to allow for communication between my computer and my PXI-7854R). At the time, I had no administrative privilege and couldn't do anything but cancel this request. Of course, nothing that I compiles now runs. How to get back to the point where I can disable the firewall?
A picture of the error message is attached.
Thank you
Stephen
