  • Active Committee's questions - (1) cannot remove unwanted colors, (2) what is "update of the original?"

    I noticed a few colors in the active panel (list Asset\Site) that are not anywhere on my site (using the Site Find/entiere)

  • Try reinstalling Mountain Lion I get the message "this item is unavailable temperarily." What now?

    I'm a late 2011 Mac book Pro, bought an ad on Craigs list, and I'm trying to reinstall OS X Lion mountain, just to get the message "this article is temporarily unavailable." What now?

    Is it the Mountain Lion installer that you downloaded yourself or you try to get for the first time? If the latter do not Mountain Lion. You must download El Capitan. If the former, then open App Store, click the shopping icon in the toolbar, locate your original entry to download, then click the download/install button on the right.

    Before you can use the computer, you will need to wipe the drive. Install OS X and any software you want on the App Store using your Apple ID. You may not use the software to sellers.

  • I have an old computer with the original XP disc. I did a complete new installation from scratch.

    Now I need all the updates, but the computer do not recognized I'm addicted to the internet? I don't know what to do. Please please don't tell not to get SP3, the computer can not get on the internet and this is the first version of XP in 2001 or 2002.  Get SP3 is what I heard with people of any technical assistance, they do not seem to read my question completely.

    You are probably missing drivers for your PC hardware. Unless you have drivers on a CD, you have a situation of the chicken egg that you will only be able to overcome by downloading on another PC and save on a USB key (for example). Go to the website of the manufacturer of your PC, look for support/downloads for your model. Download and run to install in this order...

    • Chipset (inf)
    • Ethernet (after this you will probably have internet access)
    • Graphics
    • Others

    If you have a driver CD, use the 'autoplay' that to install the drivers.

    After this, refer to this topic...

  • FireFox update erases the original settings and shoots IE settings instead

    I had considered moving away from Internet Explorer and Firefox will like our default browser to the company that I am administrator for. If I place a test configuration Firefox user like I wanted and then reconfigure IE to turn it off effectively. However, a disturbing event has consider me otherwise. My test user received an update for Firefox and updating pulled all the configuration information of IE rather than preserve the existing installation of Firefox. So essentially it disabled FireFox as well. I really don't want to disable updates, but I certainly don't want to go around and re - configure each of my 140 machines every time Firefox did an update. We also run web applications must have and relys on an older version of java. Even though I know that the latest version is preferred these apps simply do not work with them. Firefox in his infinite wisdom during an update disables my old version of java break my applications. I like FireFox, but I simply don't have time to micro - manage this piece of software. He must keep all settings for the installation of the original version. Is it possible to configure Firefox to do what I want to do it during an update instead of what he wants to do. I thought the software was supposed to make our lives more easy not bogg down day support run fixing fubars FireFox. If Firefox wants an alternative to IE, then it must be a step better. The reason why I want to move from IE, it's that I don't just have time to deal with daily issues due to updates. If Firefox is an alternative browser why it relies on IE to get its parameters.

    BOURNAC

    Hi rbowman there, I can understand how this topic is. Looks like you have configured Firefox on one or two computers. It also seems that you went with the normal version of Firefox. When you first configure Firefox it asks if you want to make settings, history, etcetera. In my opinion, what he does after an update too. Fear in the ordinary. If the employee a right to say yes I want that all my stuff from IE, and we know how that worked. Firefox made a version for the admin of TI. 'S called it Firefox extended support. This allows you to manage the settings and all that an admin would have to do without going to a computer. I recommend you try this. Hope that this time, he's better.

  • I want to transfer adobe CS5 to my laptop, which reaches the end of his life to a new iMac. Can I install usingusing the original installation discs?

    I want to transfer adobe CS5 Design Premium from a laptop computer, reaches the end of its use, for a new iMac. Can I use the original discs to insall or what I need to manually transfer since the MacBook to the iMac?  Erlend

    Transfer does not work.  If you have disks, use the discs.  This assumes that your laptop is a Mac - Creative Suites are platform dependent.

    You are allowed to have two active facilities, so you can leave it on the laptop if you could use a backup.  If you prefer not to, then you should disable it on the laptop in order to free your activation for future use.  TPO disable just to open one of the applications and choose Help-> Deactivate.

  • How update without the original operating system?

    I recently had to buy a hard drive for my counter top. I did this do not know that the operating system was not on it. I returned to Best Buys and the geek squad guy told me that with the new drive hard I have to install the operating system. Because I didn't it was suggested to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional. Did not say anything else, so I bought a program two cents of dollar only to find out that this program is for an upgrade and not a new drive. Now I can't turn it on at all. Can someone please? Can I take that back and negotiate it? I'm not sure.

  • I'm about to buy a new laptop. I have installed the upgrade to Office 2007 some time ago and have the CD, but I don't have the original CD that I used to install Office 2003. How can I install Office 2007 on my new computer with only the upgrade CD?

    I am currently running XP.  I expect that the new laptop has Windows 7.

    Without the original installation media, Microsoft Office 2003, you cannot install a version upgrade of Microsoft Office 2007.  You would need to purchase a version of "Full license" of Office 2007. Carey Frisch

    I run cs2 and recently got a dialog box reinstall arise.

    I can navigate is more the function help or updates.

    My installation disc was lost in the process of several movements.

    How or if I can get a new drive?

    You will need to contact Adobe. You will need to provide proof of purchase, unless you had registered with your installation and they have on disk. I'm not sure that they provide discs in CS2, but that's all I know to try. You may be out of luck if you don't save, or that they have more drives for CS2.

    Hello

    There is no free updates for all Windows XP operating systems.

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.

    There is no update free from XP to Vista, 7, 8.1, or 10.

    Forget Vista as support extended for Vista SP2 will end April 2017.

    Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.
