No right click.
 
Although by default, the taskbar is displayed on the bottom of the screen,
It can be on any of the sides on what you prefer. To move any
side to side, simply click an unused portion and drag
where you want it. Don't forget to click on * in * it, not on the edge.
by clicking on the edge and dragging will resize not move.
 
Moreover, with the screen monitors wide today, I prefer the taskbar
on the left or the right of the screen. I think that allows a better
use of real estate than have it at the bottom of screen.

    My taskbar has moved to the right side of the screen rather than on the bottom. Is it possible to fix?

    1. right click on the taskbar and uncheck "lock the taskbar".

    2. move the mouse on the border of the taskbar until the mouse turns into black arrow; then stop, left-button-down and drag the taskbar whenever you want.

    3. then, you can lock the taskbar again.

    It's a matter of Windows not a question of IE.  However, FWIW, what I would do is disable Auto-Hide, and then use the menu item move the taskbar, for example Alt-space, M and then do a few movements of the cursor to see where you can get it at.   That's actually what I did in XP.  I am now on W7 and apparently this Alt-space, M thing does not work here.  In W7 they apparently now actually do less esoteric function, for example, there is an explicit option for this in the taskbar properties dialog box.  Who would have thought?  I don't know what the State of this feature in Vista.   Try both?   ; )

  • I import a jpg for a logo. It has a white background and I want to make transparent

    I tried to use the functionality of the Magic Eraser, and it seems to work in what displays on the screen, but when I save it as a PSD or JPG the background is always white.

    To make this work you must convert the background into a normal layer layer so that it will support transparency. Simply slide the lock to the trash.

    When you save the file, you must save in a format that supports transparency as a psd, tiff, or png. Jpg does not support transparency and will result in a white background anywhere it should be transparent.

  • I have a disc of photos that are turned to the side and I want that they portrait. How can I do that for all of the disk?

    I'm a model and the photographer gave me the pictures of the shooting on a disc with the release form. The problem is when I went to open the pictures they are all turned sideways and he wrote a 'read only' and unable to change! Is there a way that I can see without turning my head to the side?

    Thank you!

    Files on a CD or a DVD should be read only... you tried to copy
    the pictures in a folder on your hard drive?

    Place the disc in your optical drive and go... Start / computer...

    Right-click on the drive letter for the drive that the disk is located, and choose... Open or explore...

    Open the folders on the drive and find pictures.

    Reach... Edition / select all... Edition / copy.

    Create a new folder in your pictures folder.

    Right-click on the new folder and choose Paste.

    Open the new folder, and then go to... Edition / select all.

    Right-click on the selected (highlighted) group and in the menu... Choose...
    Properties / General tab... Uncheck (clear) the read-only box / apply / OK.

    Right-click on the selected (highlighted) group and from the menu choose...

  • Why don't I have a "Recently deleted" folder in my Notes?  I'm pretty sure that I've improved my Notes app (I can make bulleted lists and draw).  A note has mysteriously disappeared yesterday and I want to try to get it back.

    An important point missing yesterday... poof!... in the air.  At one point, I used the search field in the Notes and the note missing that presented themselves.  But, now, it disappeared again.  I can't find anywhere.  In the search for a solution, I see that I should have a folder called Notes in "recently deleted".  I don't.  I think I have the improved version of Notes because I can make checklists & draw.

    6 s iPhone: iOS 9.3.2

    MacBook Pro: El Capitan 10.11.5

    I looked in all folders.  I have now switched off Notes for all accounts where it had been activated (no Notes existed in these accounts).  On my Mac, on the navigation on the left of the application Notes (files), I: Notes from iCloud, on my Mac and my Notes to gmail.  On my iPhone, the list of files just a pointed iCloud and on my Notes from the iPhone.

    Bottom line:

    To this, I have been for over 2 hours now.  I'm willing to give up the missing note (unfortunately), but really want to know where my "Recently deleted" folder is located (don't know if I'd ever).  If you tell me to reset my phone or digging through backups as a last resort, please explain step by step and let me know what I could lose it making.

    Thanks in advance!

    Update: I have just disabled my gmail account note on my Mac so that both (phone and laptops) Notes apps list the same folders... for only iCloud + on my Mac / On my iPhone.

  • My screen has moved to the right. Unable to scroll to the top and bottom of the margin on the right side bar. What should I do?

    My screen has moved to the right. The scroll bar on the right side is more visible to use. What should I do?

    Hi roseann.loasby,

    As the display is shifted to the right the problem is more to do with your monitor than Windows. A monitor, it of like a TV and invokes hold vertical and horizontal button options to keep the image in place.

    There should be options on your monitor to make changes to the positioning vertical/hortizonal (in your horizontal case). Most monitors have an 'auto' option that automatically adjusts the diaply photo, so it is well positioned. It's nothing serious, however, you will need to check your user guide for the monitor to see what options you have to use the re - adjust the horizontal positioning. If there is a "menu" button on the front of your monitor try to press to view a display on your monitor. You can then either use the option 'auto' or else click the left/right arrows (usually on each side of the on-screen menu button) to adjust the menu and then the position.

    If you are not confident to do this, you ask someone with more knowledge to do it for you. By pressing the wrong button, you can make the screen more out of alignment, so be careful, as otherwise it will be a matter of trial and error until you have reset the monitor correctly.

    It is a fairly simple job to do, but because every monitor is different, it is difficult to write clear instructions because I could tell you to press a button and this button may not be here, then take a look at your user guide for the monitor first to familiarize yourself with the buttons are available.
