The task bar will not move.

I discovered that my task bar had moved to the left side of the screen from one day to the next.  I tried several times to move it, but were insuccessful.  It is not locked so I should be able to move it, but it won't.  Any ideas?

Do a system restore. Take the date when you do NOT have such a problem as your restore point.

Start button > Search box, type System Restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.

  • Light bar will not move from the Park position when the cover flat is in place.

    I need to copy a piece of a book of music, mark it for repetition.  The book is thick enough that I must leave the cover upward.  The first 6 copied pages OK, but now all I get is a page of alll-gray.  The light bar doesn't move; It sounds like it is stuck, but only when the cover is in place.  The cover down (copy of one sheet), it works fine.

    I thought about it!  The diference between copies who worked and those who did not was the size of the paper that I used to hide the unwanted materials.  For those who worked, the sheet lying on the light bar.

    Apparently the light bar requires a white surface facing the flat, or it won't work.

  • upgrade to firefox after 8 no matter what url I enter in the address bar will not work.like there is no active connection, or an address to go to.dead bar.also I find my recorded history links will not work.

    Windows xp pro. This means that my files are corrupt? so even if I wanted to return the old version of firefox my story will be bad?

    One possible cause is a problem with the places.sqlite file that stores the bookmarks and history.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • BUG: The task bar is not updated

    With the help of Windows 8 as it is downloaded yesterday. When you use IE10 launched from the desktop, the taskbar does not update the time in the lower right or update the names of sites web/programs open. We must return to the start screen, then returns to the desktop for the taskbar to update properly, but only at this time (it does not keep up-to-date)

    The day after my announcement there was an update of Windows and the problem seems to go away for now. Using a Microsoft account (Live.com), that happened when opening folde3rs or other applications, not just IE and date and the time have been properly updated on my PC, but not on the taskbar.
