Unable to access the photo viewer; and also cannot access the desktop icons because they are changed to the photo viewer icon.
Original title: I tried to apply the photo viewer to open a file and the photo viewer icon replaced each icon on my desktop. Now I can't open anything on my desktop. What is going on?
The name is below the icon, but the correct icon has been replaced by windows Photo Viewer icon. When I click to open it, it says: windows Photo Viewer cannot open this photo because Photo Viewer does not support this file format, or you do not have the latest updates... I don't know what I did!

iCloud not able to download the Photos because they are too small
I'm trying to install iCloud and download all my photos from the photos app. However, about 500 (out 3,00) cannot be downloaded, because they are "too small". Is there a solution to this? Also once I have downloaded them will be safe to remove them from the photos app to create a space on my mac?
See you soon.
I have not heard of "too small" subject problem and cannot help with that.
Regarding
Also once I have downloaded them will be safe to remove them from the photos app to create a space on my mac?
Note If you are using iCloud photo library (Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud > Photos > iCloud photo library) all photos you delete app Photos on your Mac will also be deleted photos at https://www.icloud.com/ and any other device connected to this library to iCloud. Apple offers no option only cloud storage for Photos. iCloud library is primarily designed for photos of synchronization between devices rather than as cloud storage only. You can reduce the amount of storage space required on your Mac by opening the photo and then click on Preferences in the menu called Photos, click on iCloud in the bar at the top of the preferences window and select "Optimize Mac Storage."

How can I make YouTube playback buttons and other plug-ins more great because they are so tiny in Firefox? I tried some suggestions dealing with entering "subject: config ' in a fresh browser, but does not. I also downloaded the add-on called "Theme font & size changer", but that no longer works. So I'm reaching here that it was a suggestion that offered another user here.
Ah, Yes, that's - a ultra high resolution (dots per inch) display. It is a known problem in Flash Player, which Adobe is working on fixing.
In the meantime, you can get some videos to have normal size controls from the Youtube HTML5 video player:
In Firefox, go to https://www.youtube.com/html5 and click on the button "request the HTML5 player. -

I have a laptop with Windows Vista, I had a D: sector which was the top backup program. I copied and deleted for space and now I tried to use the disks and they are corrupt and unusable. Is it possible to get a download or copy to reinstall Windows Vista on my laptop and start again.
Hello
Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed
