• Cannot rebuild the desktop

  Hello. I have a MacBook MB062LL/A (2,1-1181) running OS x 10.6.8 .tI was a little wide, slow running and other things. I just bought it used off eBay. The HD has been wiped clean with a new installation of the operating system (when I started I was greeted with the screen "familiar" multilingual) so he must be a Virgin installation (although Safari has quite a few cookies), but he continues to slow down really bad. I have reset the PRAM (Command-Option-P-R during startup) and I tried to rebuild the desktop (command-Optiom at the start), but it asks me if I want to rebuild the desktop. Can someone advise me? TIA.

  1. There is no office to rebuild in Mac OS X; This is a feature of Mac OS 9-era no equivalent Mac OS X.

  2. restart with the keys Option, command, P, and R keys.

• Shortcut on the desktop for Windows Defender

  Hello. I have Windows 7 starter on my netbook and want to create a shortcut on the desktop for Windows Defender. However, it does not appear as a program in the start menu and the option to display the control panel more big or small icons is greyed out (i.e., not available in starter edition), I don't see the program on the control panel or the other. The only way I can get to it is to type in 'Defender' in the search field in the start menu or the search field on the control panel. Although one of these actions will locate Windows Defender, they do not provide me the ability to create a shortcut for the application. I tried searching in Program Files on the C drive and found him, but did not know which file right-click on the folder to create a shortcut file. If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it.

  Second, Windows Defender is updated analysis scheduled around 02:00 every morning, but my computer isn't on then, I expect to do a scan automatically the next day when I turned the computer back on. He did not do that and always displays the last analysis as being the manual I did the day before. Is it possible to get auto-start if it misses its slot 02,00 regular?

  Thank you very much.

  Hello

  Thank you both for responding: I did click right and do drag the thing like that seemed simpler and it worked: thank you. Are you able to let me know how to get the Defender to make an auto scan when I turn on the computer if it misses its slot 02,00?

  Thank you.

• Shortcut on the desktop for Task Manager, within the Task Scheduler?

  When I open the Task Scheduler, I see this...

  Task Scheduler (local)

  Event viewer tasks

  Microsoft

  Windows

  ...

  ...

  Task Manager

  I want to create a shortcut on the desktop for the entrance to the "Task Manager", in Task Scheduler. Is this possible? Keep in mind, I'm not looking for Windows CTRL + SHIFT + ESC Task Manager, I am looking for the task manager that allows me to see my scheduled tasks. Thanx.

  Instead of having to click...

  • Beginning
  • Administration tools
  • Task Scheduler

  Then, for in Task Scheduler, I develop...

  • Task Scheduler Library
  • Microsoft
  • Windows

  So I can finally, click on the Task Manager and see the tasks planned it.

  My goal is to have a shortcut on the desktop (or any other method) which will allow a 'reduced click' access for the final result to view the scheduled tasks mentioned above. Thanx.

• Cannot create a shortcut on the desktop for a Web site in the browser Firefox Tor

  I am a user of Tor Browser, and I love the interface of Firefox. According to my page, my Firefox browser is up-to-date. But for some reason I can't save shortcuts to office for a Web site. Whenever I drag the icon beside a Web site (variously a glob, a green bolt and other icons), I get a mouse icon of denial no matter where I try to put the web shortcut on the desktop. This happens even when I drag the bookmarks of my bookmark bar! My guess is that something is blocked in Tor allowing no shortcuts settings. Any suggestions on where the parameters of the shortcuts are in Firefox?

  Fred, all other modules worked well. I contacted the people of Tor, and they were unsure of what's going on. I've pasted their response below, but the short answer is that they have me just save shortcuts manually from the office whenever the Tor Button is active. Thanks for your help, you've been great!

  Drag events filtering and blocking the external application

  External applications can be induced to load files that perform network
  activity. Unfortunately, there are cases where these applications can be launched
  automatically with little or no user intervention. To avoid this,
  Torbutton installs a component to provide the user with a popup when
  the browser is trying to launch a helper application.

  In addition, modern desktop computers now preemptively look for all URLS in drag
  and events move as soon as the drag is initiated. This download happens
  independently Tor browser setting and can be triggered by
  something as simple as holding the mouse button for a little too
  time by clicking a link to the image. Filter us drag and drop events
  events of Torbutton before the OS downloads the URL contained events.

  We need more information!

  Borrowing another post by ElderL (the same "JoseIbarra' that Elizabeth23 already mentioned):
  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  What is your Internet browser and version?

  Do you have the Windows Desktop Search installed issue?

  Your system's disks IDE or SATA drives?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  What do you see (exactly) that you don't think you should see, and when you see it?

  What do not you think that you should see?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  ___________________________________________________________

  Once you answer these questions to the best of your ability, a lot of people here (don't forget that almost all of us are volunteers who are also using Windows XP) will probably be able to help quickly resolve your problem.
  That (ElderL also) might help, too (because its results will contain many answers to the above questions):
  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  Msinfo32

  Click OK, and when the system info summary appears, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) the information back here in your next reply.

  For video device and driver information, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information here.

  There will be some personal information (such as the user name and the name of the system), and anything that turns information private for you, simply delete the pasted information.

  This will minimize back Q & A and eliminate guesswork.

• xp license can be transferred to the desktop for laptop

  I have an office installed with XP Home (purchased separately - cd), now I want to buy a laptop and would like to transfer my XP license for old office laptop, can a guide it is possible. What is the process?

  If it is a retail Windows XP CD (which it seems to be) then just install on the laptop and turn it on, that's what he is.  Legally, you are not allowed to install on several computers, so to comply with this EULA, you would need to remove it from the desktop computer, to remove an operating system you format the drive hosting the BONE, it goes without saying that all the files on the disk will be lost when you format it.

  The retail license transfer is really not a problem, it will be the least of your problems!  Perhaps your problem is that there is no driver available for the new XP computer laptop so that you might not be able to run correctly with Windows XP.  By their nature notebooks are built with hardware owner, if the manufacturer of the laptop has not designed the laptop to Windows XP support, they provide no drivers for it and it will be almost impossible to find the other drivers.  You might have more luck if you buy a portable class business and not the cheapest destined to consumers, usually mobile phones intended for business customers are likely to be the only new likely to have Windows XP support.

  This really isn't my business, but I think you should go and accept Windows 7, Windows XP is on its last leg, after the operating system is now 10 years old and long out-of-standard support.  Like it or not Windows 7 wins wide acceptance and much new hardware and software is designed to take advantage of the new technologies that are not supported by the Windows XP now for 10 years.

  You should consider your options carefully before begin you this project of installation of Windows XP on your new laptop computer, ask the manufacturer whether they support it.  Also consider whether or not you want to restrict or limit your options when it comes to the use of the new hardware and software.  A better alternative would be to buy a laptop with a Windows 7 license professional and install Windows XP mode/Virtual PC top.  Also remember that Windows 7 Professional is provided with Downgrade rights to Windows XP Professional and that the seller of the laptop can support this facility and do it for yourself, who will continue to way you won't have to bother with that and your current Windows XP license valid for use on any other computer.
