Several desktop computers at Windows startup

original title: several screens

I use Vista and I'm having six screens when I start my computer, everything works, but I saw six of everything.

Here is an article on several monitors in Vista: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Understanding-multiple-monitors.  Note that the article includes a number of links to other articles that may also be nigra (how to set up the other monitors and such things).  For example, here's how to change the display settings on multiple monitors: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Change-display-settings-on-multiple-monitors.  If you start here and browsed the various links until you have seen all the Associates, you will find instructions on how to get the monitors to display different scenes instead of all the same.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

  • Move the files, folders, and applications when you use several desktop computers

    I have configured my MacBook Pro to display several different offices, based on several types of work that I do. I'm having two problems: (1) get the apps in the dock to show only in the dock on specific and (2) workstations, get the files and folders to broadcast only on one specific office.

    Re: (1), I followed the instructions from Apple I found online, but all applications in the dock show in the dock on each other in all cases.

    Re: (2), I don't see a menu or option to specify desktop computers. They're showing on all my workstations, which isn't what I want.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    The Dock is the same, no matter what you are in office. It cannot be configured to display only the items to come on a computer desktop and other articles on others. It is similarly of the icons. An icon that you put on a desktop will appear in all work positions.

    Now you pouvez specify certain applications appear in specific jobs and this applies to the Finder as well so you can have icons of documents and folders appear on a single desktop computer. Other workstations will all show no icons. If you choose this option, you can then open a window to a folder on the desktop that has the Finder, and then move it to another office.

    Before Apple, desktops implemented, there are several utilities which enabled us to operate more as you want, but unfortunately, they are now gone.

  • Several desktop computers

    Hello

    I use several computers desktop (accessible by the Mission control). I just added a third and my apps are bad! I have a set for Outlook upward and a few other applications, office (Word, etc) applications and my third new office for Adobe CC applications. Everything was fine until I started using the third office. I put the options to keep the apps I would like it - office 1, 2, 3, all desktop computers, this office etc... my problem is that apps in 2 and 3 keep switching places, even if I put exactly where I want that they!

    Sounds trivial I know not, but why OS X gives the option to position them if she's going to ignore it? Y at - it a bug? She is currently set?

    Any help appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Open 'System Preferences' and go to 'Mission Control'. Uncheck the box 'AutoArrange spaces based on a more recent use.

  • How to install Windows 7 on several desktop computers?

    I would like information about how to install Windows 7 on desktop sixteen I just built.

    I build them from scratch. I want to know how to install Windows 7 on them.

    What type of disc do I need to buy... Do I have to buy 16 disks in Windows 7... or is there a simpler solution?

    OK, I'll look into the full retail version. That means, correct me if I'm wrong, what with the commercial full version Windows, I can install it on all built I want, as many times I want, it just cannot be installed on multiple computers that is active.

    No, incorrect.

    Full version (retail):

    -a computer can only be reinstalled many times on the same computer.

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive

    Upgrade version (detail):

    -a computer can only be reinstalled many times on the same computer.

    -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.

    -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.

    -Expensive, but less expensive full version

    OEM System Builder version:

    The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

    -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

    But, even once, correct me if I'm wrong, OEM, once the computer version dies, the OEM licenses dies with him, and I'll need to buy another license... Fix?

    Fix

    So my best bet would be to go with the full retail version of Windows 7?

    Depends on, which is why it is best to get full retail Windows 7, but they are difficult to obtain.

    What version of Windows 7 System Builder? I've never heard of this, but I see it at Walmart.com, etc..

    System Builder - aka OEM license.

  • multiple monitors - several desktop computers do not work

    My computer continues to change the provision of workstations, monitors and funds from time to time. I have three monitors with different characteristics (a 4 K, two 1920 x 1200, attached to a MacPro (a mini DP, a HDMI and VGA adapter).) Whenever the machine goes to sleep (I never managed to find out when this is the case) it takes longer to wake up that the start-up of the machine and monitors keep switching wildly. The end result is order, that I had arranged for most of the day. But sometimes the office images disappear, sometimes they switch to a different view, sometimes one of them is doubled.

    Is there a way to get rid of this nonsense? (My Office photos Dungeon change for a while and it started well before MacPro was invented).

    "What Windows are on which screens" changes when the screens are not available. The reasoning is, if a view is not available, its windows are moved (usually at the main display) so that at least part of every open window is displayed on this screen to work, so that it can be manipulated, and the window is not "lost". (I haven't looked in the bottom of the screen how you treat.)

    From your description, I conclude that at some point, your Mac has decided that some screens are "unavailable". It is a problem almost no resolved with poster several high-tech on the Mac Pro entries.

    To display an image on a Mac, a screen should respond to a request of the Mac, "what is your name and what are your abilities?

    This request is sent:

    • shortly after switching on

    • When inserting the Mac end of the display cable

    • on the invocation of the Option-(detect screens) in the display panel

    • the waking from sleep

    especially on high technology multiple input displays, the screen may not be "considering" the channel of secondary data for the port attached to the Macintosh, especially if its default value is not wearing his computer, or in the case of evil where:

    (a) the display is in sleep and

    (b) display is not designed to wake up until it gets a signal to an appropriate resolution display...

    ... (which will never happen unless it responds to the request of the Mac)

    --------

    You should be sure the internal parameters (fixed on the screen, not on Mac) for each display are set to focus on the 'port' the computer connection on all others.

    As often happens around sleep Mac, many users responded by not having not not their sleep poster, not having don't not sleep Mac, or both.

  • I have two old desktop computers running Windows XP and want to upgrade to Vista

    I tried the windows 7 Advisor and he said I'm going to need a professional installation.  Just trying to see if I can optimize these to give to a women's shelter.  I want to upgrade, but don't have to.  Is there any where that I can at least a scanner to check if vista is compatible?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Vista Upgrade Advisor is no longer available.

    That's the only advice we can give you to see if you can upgrade to Vista:

    «Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Vista drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.»

    If not available, Vista will not properly work for you. »

    "System requirements for Windows Vista"

    But the minimum requirements of Microsoft are just that, minimum.

    To begin, I would double the recommended amount of RAM for a machine that works efficiently and at a reasonable speed.

  • Can I install Creative Cloud on several desktop computers?

    I have a Mac, but I am currently getting my battery replaced. If I download creative cloud for the first time on my roommates PC I still will be able to use on my own computer after that my battery is fixed?

    I don't want to be stuck using creative cloud on his PC, but I desperately need to download home for project purposes.

    You can install it on as many machines as you want.  All these machines you can have two signed in use.  These two machines you can use only the subscription on one at a time.

  • Several wallpapers (desktop computers)

    OK, this could be a crazy question. In El Capitan, I was just messing around with drag of the mouse. As I double finger slid left, I noticed that my previous wallpaper appeared. What is the purpose of these multiple wallpapers? There are at least 5 previous that I used. It can be used as separate work stations, and I can switch back. I'm just curious to know how others use these essentially in short. It's on the iMac 27 "5 k retina

    Looks like you have several trays of office set up with each showing a different wall paper. An easy way to get a glimpse of this is to click on the Mission control. The current display you have will be slightly reduced and at the top of the screen, you will see a banner with each asset Office marked ' Office 1, office 2, etc.. One way might be easier to switch between them is to hold down the Ctrl key and click the right arrow or arrow to the left. In general, I use 2 desktop computers to simply keep the different workflows and related programs in their own separate office (Safari running in one, Firefox running in the other). Initially, I had the same wallpaper in each, but changed one to make them easily dissociated from each other.

  • When I started my computer this morning, it ran chkdsk at startup, windows startup it goes immediately to chkdsk, it will be repeated again and again. I can boot into safe mode, but if I try to start windows normally it runs chkdsk and does not start

    Windows does not start normally, just run chkdsk again and again

    First test the hard drive to make sure it's healthy. Test the hard drive with a diagnostic utility downloaded from site of the disc mftr. or use SeaTools for BACK of Seagate. You create a bootable CD with the files you download. You will need a third party burning software to do as the free ImgBurn, Nero or Roxio. Burn as an image, not in the form of data.

    Boot with the CD that you have done and do a full test of the reader. The physical tests fail, replace it.

    If the hard drive then passes the physical tests, safe mode:
    Start > run > cmd [Enter]
    fsutil dirty query c: (or the appropriate drive letter) [Enter]

    This will tell you if the disc is dirty or not. Then always in cmd:

    chkntfs /x c: (or the appropriate drive letter) [Enter]

    This tells Windows not not to check this drive at startup. Reboot and it should go on the desktop. Once Windows loaded, run cmd and:

    Chkdsk /f /r c: (or the appropriate drive letter) [Enter]

    CHKDSK will run through all 5 steps. After that it's over, always in cmd:

    fsutil dirty query c: (or the appropriate drive letter) [Enter]

    to see that the dirty bit is not set on this drive.

  • My computer guard direct me to the Windows Startup Repair loop. Is this a virus? If this is not the case, what should I do?

    OK, here's a little history:
    When was surfing the Internet (using Mozilla Firefox), he froze and said that he "did not." Then I left the computer alone for a good 15 minutes, but to realize that nothing happened. From there, I decided to disconnect the computer to see if I can re - open Firefox. But when I tried to connect it back, the computer take me on the desk. It was stuck at the screen that says 'Welcome' (the form that appears after clicking on your user name) in the end, I turned off the computer by holding the power button, because there was nothing I could do. When I turned on the computer a few minutes later, it was time that I met a huge problem.

    The problem:
    When I turned it back on, a black screen appears that gives you the ability to boot your system with a repair on your computer, or start normally. I chose "start normally. After that, it took me a blue screen with a window that says "Startup Repair". He began to scan the computer saying «attempted repairs...» "When I saw this, I turned immediately shut down the computer, thinking it was some sort of virus that pretends to fix the computer. Nevertheless, I decided to turn it on for the second time. Of course, it's the same thing. But this time, I allow the scanning process to complete. When it was over, he said that the system could not be repaired and advised me to contact Microsoft, with my "contact information." I took this as a red flag, and click Cancel. I suspected it was an attempt to identity theft. (Though, I could be wrong, of course.)

    Honestly, I don't know if if there is indeed something wrong with the computer or if it's a virus.

    I tried to find out by going online and looking for solutions. From there, I tried a method where you press F8 several times until the Advanced Boot Options go up and selected "Last known Configuration" that did not work. I also heard on the "chkdsk" method, but I don't know how to do and there is no guarantee this will work.

    After that, I did more research and realized there were several ways to solve this problem. But when I went through the tutorials, the steps have been very confusing to me. I felt like most of these tutorials aimed computer technicians or people who knew in fixing computers. The steps were so confused until I found myself referring more questions than real answers!

    So now I'm reaching out to help, and I really need! It would be greatly appreciated! I really don't want to format all my data.

    Please keep in mind that I am a lover of computers operating. The two programs I normally use are Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Word. So please don't be assuming that I know my way in and out of a computer. I'm no where near, in every sense of the term, an 'Expert '. If you can, I would like a simple, easy to follow, simple tutorial, step by step, which is not turned to professional users. Still, I am not very competent in operating computers.

  • Notice appears after Windows startup

    I recently had (Oh Yes... She is my best friend!) an old computer running Windows 7, 64-bit, an older version to use as a backup of the machine.  There was plenty of crapware and malware and a virus or two but I managed to get the all clear upward and all is to come clean and works very well.  Finally almost.  I need a few questions answered or help:

    When I turn on the computer, the screen stands up and says Windows startup.  Then in quick succession, I get 3 reviews, the first is (maybe start or load) Local Session Manager.  The second is (perhaps starting or Loading... they come fast enough and I don't have them all written down) the user profile Service and the third says prepare your desktop computer.  Then my office loads and all is well.  I don't know what that means exactly, or if they need fixing, but any ideas are appreciated.  I deleted his user accounts and create an account under my name, and it is the only account on the machine not to mention that the guest account, where the power is off.  I also changed the name of the owner to mine.

    Problem two is that every so often the machine returns to the Welcome screen, shown in the photo of my name and account and said locked beneath it.  I can just click on the photo and need me a back right on the desktop and everything I was doing, but I don't know why this is happening.

    In addition, way back when she got the machine she was using CARBONITE!  She has deleted the part of it through the uninstall but I keep finding pieces here and there.  The biggest annoyance is that he presents as a disk on the desktop and I can't get rid of it.  He also has little locks on files, but I can still access them.  Most importantly, I want just all traces of this program without value passed.  What can I do?

    In all these are not overwhelming problems, only little of annoyances I would clean up the Earth.

    I do not have the homegroup activated, but my laptop and this machine share a wireless router.  For the record, I ran the check disk and scan disk, as well as several Mr. Fixits.  I worked on this machine without stop for about 4 days now, so I am tired and it would be nice that someone just tell me the answers instead of the hours of research like I did.  Appreciate any ideas!
