Creation of an intranet to a collection of security videos and am linking to a video through a picture icon in the form of:
< a href = "K: \'link to the movie" > ""
< /a >Overview on the works of IE9, the movie starts when the splash screen is clicked, but in Firefox, I get the alert "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the Protocol (k) is not associated with any program."
InterLan VLC is the video player by default on the PC. I don't want to put video controls anywhere in the page.
I code for XHTML 1.1 strict with CSS 2.1, and Firefox 5 handles all of my eccentric styles while IE9 has a few issues, while Firefox is my browser of choice.
Looking at my Options in Firefox, 'File Windows Media audio/video' is configured to use VLC.exe, so I'm always looking to solve this problem.
Any Suggestions?
You must use the Protocol file:// (file:///k:/link_to_movie).
Easier to see the links to use are to open a file via file > open a file -
When I try to open a torrent using magnet, I get the following message. Firefox doesn't know how to open this address because the Protocol (loving) is not binding to any program.
I had this problem and just reinstalled Firefox. Problem solved. In my case, I believe that it is through the installation of FlashGet. Although I uninstalled FlashGet, it had outstripped the Magnet links / Protocol. I hope this helps you with your instance. Fortunately, I had Setup for my version of Firefox (7.0.1) registered and used that but you might need to search for your current version or install a later version

1. What is the brand and model of the computer?
2 does on all programs or only one?
3. you receive an error before it crashes?

original title: corel draw X 3 need a file to upgrade to work and will not install Windows install. I am running XP
Windows Installer won't install Corel Draw X 3 patch for Corel SP1 and SP2. Corel X 3 was released at the end of the 1980s, well before updates from Microsofts SP.
These files are patches for the X 3 program and have nothing to do with Microsoft SP 1, 2 and 3.
The error that gives the installer of windows, is that the patch cannot be installed by the installer, because the program is missing (which is not the case) or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program, (which he did... this fix is designed especially for the X 3 only and is in fact the upgrade for him.)
It says to check that I have the program on my computer and I have the appropriate fix. (What I'm doing.)
NOTE:
Last week I had to remove Corel X 3 from my computer and re-install. After that, I couldn't get the patch installed, and it needs those 2 patches to work properly.I am running XP Pro with MS Service pack 3 on my computer. I have Intel pentium 4, 2944 usable Mg 300Ghz installed memory 266,80 GB of free space on 2 hard drives.
Another site said a faulty windows installer can cause "out of memory" errors and has spent in Corel Draw so I deleted and reinstalled as I've mentioned above. Any ideas on how to get this installed? Hope you can help, I don't know where to turn to the next if not. Corel does not support this program because of his age. I can't afford to update at the moment so I have a problem here. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
Been away in a few days. Just in case anyone else has this problem, I found the answer. It's one of those moments DUHHH.
If you use the version of Corel Draw X 3 13.0.0.739, there already = sp1 and sp2 patches and pre-installed horfix.
Should check that the first step, but I thank you
David Vinod to try to help this sometimes fictitious.

I can't send an e-mail from a link on a page without getting this error... "could not perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed"... My windows mail is set as default and I can receive and send him good, please help.
Thank you
A program is defined as default does not mean that it has considered all of the default roles available. In the case of Outlook 2007, there are 13 total default values that can be assigned, and it should have each of them. It is possible to default Outlook for e-mail, but not the default value for write links in web pages.
