    Hello

    Send it to / mail recipient option works only if you have a separate E-mail program is installed.

    You must have a Desktop Email program is installed to do this, such as Windows Live Mail, which is part of the Windows Essentials range.

    Concerning

  • Camera Raw yellow box on blue background

    I just installed the trial version of Photoshop CC on my computer. I try to open a file of a camera in Camera Raw D1X NEF, however, I see only a box yellow (instead of the image) on a blue background. Here is some useful information...

    Windows 10, 64-bit

    Adobe Bridge CC Version 6.1.1.10 x 64

    Adobe Camera Raw Version 9.2.0.486

    In Bridge, the NEF thumbnail appears fine and a XMP is generated.

    If the XMP from my old version of bridge had been treated in my old version of Camera Raw, open NAVE ok file in the new version of Camera Raw, but it is defined in the 2003 process, ACR 4.4

    All other features of Camera Raw seems to work on the same image that I see the histogram update I make changes. Yet, it simply shows a yellow box instead of my image.

    This is what it looks like...

    Can anyone suggest how could this problem be addressed?

    Try to uncheck use Graphics Processor in the Camera Raw preferences. (Ctrl + K)

    Hi Sumit,

    Unfortunately, your suggestions worked.

    I followed the procedure but the files reappear when I logged in CC via the office.

    Any other idea? It's very frustrating not being able to delete documents that are at the origin of the problems...

  • How to turn of the yellow box with the magnifying glass in there? I hate that I'm looking for another browser to use!

    If I highlight a word or accidentally highlight a Word, I get this ubiquitous little yellow box with a magnifying glass or the mention "Loading". I hate it. I have to move the cursor on a blank area, then click to get rid of it. He is quite bored. I'm tired of fighting the browser to do my job! What fool this? I can't find a way to turn it off.

    In addition, to help further research, you could paste your list of extensions in response. For this list, the simplest method is to use the support information page, you can open using either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    Scroll down a little the Extensions section, and then select the table below with your mouse and copy (for example, right-click > copy or Ctrl + c), then paste into an answer here. It's a bit messy, but we are used to it.

  • slate7 hd unable to receive files via bluetooth

    Hiya,

    I have a HD Slate7 7 '' android pad and used for 3 months and recently noticed that it became unable to receive files via bluetooth transfer. I restarted the machine and also restarted the bluetooth but always without success. However, I can still use bluetooth to transfer files. Would it be a hardware failure, I declined cushion by chance a few times?

    Appreciate any suggestions.

    ARM

    DC.

    Hey windphantom,

    Thanks for the information, which helps a lot.

    It seems that the Bluetooth can be cached on the tablet. You should be able to clear the cache of Bluetooth like any other application by going to settings > Apps > all > share of Bluetooth and pressing then clear the Cache.

    If this is not enough, you can try a factory reset. You can see how to do this here: perform a factory reset on your HP Slate 7 HD.

    Let me know if this helps.

  • Download or read audio data in MP3 files in Hotmail

    Cannot open MP3 files in Hotmail. Tried clicking on Audio and download and same problem if the file is transferred to the desktop.

    These files open in the past. Now says that Windows has encountered a problem with Windows Media Player. Do not open or play.

    any ideas out there? Thank you!

    You can play other audio (mp3) files using the media player.

    No doubt, you can download the latest version of media player (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-media-player)

    If you are able to play other audio files, probably the file you are trying to read is damaged or did not download properly.
