Problems with Sims 3, iTunes, Windows 7, and shortcuts :/

Recently I installed the Sims 3 World Adventures... I never had the chance to play because he went all funny :/ In any case, I've uninstalled it, but all me shortcuts from desktop and my shortcuts on the start menu still had the logo of the Sims 3... Whenever I pressed one of them it redirected to the Launcher. So logically, I uninstalled the Sims 3 (original game). All my shortcuts have become the white rectangles... They are now all the iTunes logo because it was the first thing that I opened. He said he did not know what program to use to open the shortcut so I chose iTunes, now they are all like that. I can't uninstall iTunes, there are too many important things about it... What should I do? :(

  • Problem with speech recognition in Windows 7 and MS Word 2010 - strange window opens

    I have been using speech recognition in Windows 7 to dictate in Word 2010.  Yesterday it worked fine: I did a number of training records, added a few new words in the speech dictionary and dictated a part of a document.  No major problems.

    Today, however, when I begin to dictate, rather than insert the words directly in my Word document, a secondary window will appear next to the insertion point and text appears here, with small buttons that say "insert" and "Cancel".  It's rather annoying - get the text dictated in the document, I must stop dictating and say "insert."  Is it possible to prevent that from happening?  As far as I know, I don't have any changes to the settings or program options to cause this.  Help!

    Thanks for the answer, but now I can't seem to reproduce the problem.  I don't know why what started, but it doesn't seem to be the case more.  Thank you.

    original title: HELP for the installation of Win XP.

    Hi Jorge,.

    So the only thing I can think is that it is a sort of master/slave thing.

    Your IDE HDD will be a Knight, probably alongside where the power cable is inserted, to dictate whether the player will be considered to be a master, slave, or cable select. Assuming that it is the only HARD drive in the PC, make sure it is designated "master". Then, in the BIOS, make sure that the boot order is specified as HDD0 first (as opposed to HDDx where x is greater than zero).

    In addition, assuming that the data cable is the new type of Ribbon with strands of 80, make sure that the blue connector of the IDE data cable is in the motherboard and that the end of the black connector is in the HARD disk and, if it is a two-disc data cable, do not use the gray connector.

  • Problems with USB devices in Windows XP Mode on Windows 7 Pro

    I have a Palm Zire 21 that I use with ACT! Contact Manager to keep track of my appointments.  I was able to sync the Palm with my ACT database until this week. The device appears on the list of USB devices, but does not connect to Windows XP mode.

    I used this device in XP Mode since August without any problem.  Last week, I started having problems with the integration of XP features and had to uninstall and reinstall the integration features a few times.  I think I have a corrupted somewhere driver.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    No need to comment unless you have more insight.

    I solved the problem myself.  In XP mode, I went to the Device Manager and scroll down to USB controllers.  A virtualization USB bus drivers showed a problem.   I uninstalled this device and then managed to reinstall my Palm correctly after connecting it to the USB port, and then going back to the menu at the top of the XP USB mode screen and hit connect when I saw my camera.  The device connected in XP automatically and I was off to the races.

  • I have a problem with photoshop cc in windows 10

    Hello

    I have problems with photoshop cc in windows 10. I am not sure if the problems are related to what windows 19, but certainly, the problems got worse since. (My computer runs on windows 10. At an i7 processor, NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 965 M, the DDR3L 16 gig memory, the GDDR5 2 GB graphics card, a card of 256 GB ssd and 1 TB of hard drive). I don't think it's a problem with my computer.

    I am currently working on a project where I need to cut some parts of the photo, that I will use it later. But I'm having the problem now, some photos displayed as it should. And some are not. They seem to be grey. Or there is some kind of white/gray block above them. It is as if is not available to the loading screen (?). If the object is there, but just does not appear right. I just put a few screenshots here that show the problem. I hope someone can help me with this. Because I can't finish my project with a photoshop which does not work at height.
