I can attach photos to an email, but it fails before the end. Probably because Outlook is selected in Preferences/editing/action. I only have Adobe and no prospects, no windows for vista mail. Should I have a corrupted file? How can I get windows messages in the menu. It works well with elements 6.
I think that you may need to use Windows Live Mail for current versions of PSE - Windows Essentials: other programs - Microsoft Windows

How can I access my product key on my laptop after having access via safe mode
Assuming the product came with your computer, the product key is on a label on the bottom, sides, back down (or even within the confines of the battery). If it's a retail purchase, the key was on a label in the case of CD and is now everywhere where you put it.
You can actually access the product key on the system of Vista without 3rd party software. If necessary, download and installhttp://www.belarc.com/free_download.html and run that and it will tell you the key to product installed on the computer. If it has been installed by the manufacturer, it will be the manufacturer's product key and not the specific assigned to your computer (unless you have reinstalled and reactivated before). You need the one assigned to your computer in order to reactivate if you re-install Vista (you cannot use key to multiple copies of the factory used to create images).
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

Windows 7 driver is not automatic duplex printing. "The options are manual, or a booklet * two or more pages per page. How can you print a page by on the side of double-sided automatically?In fact, the driver of Windows 7 made good automatic duplex printing - no patch is required for Windows 7 [edit - this is true for fresh installation. For the versions of Vista the patch may be used for Windows 7]. The default value for some printers, is that the duplexer is 'not installed', please check the Duplex Printing Troubleshooting Guide for Vista. In Windows 7, the procedure is slightly different, in the folder printers click twice on the 7410, double-click the icon 'Customize your printer', device settings and under installable options go "Duplex for two back" on installed, OK.

Windows Update for Vista (KB2286198) _
Everything from the lates Windows Update has been installeded for Vista (KB2286198)
I was not able to use my card to air with the Cradlepoint router. The computer can see the router but only connect with local and non-local and internet access. If I plug the modem from Verizon in the computer USB it will not work. I have uninstall-ed the update and it works again with the Cradlepoint wireless modem. Then, the update automatically installs again and I have the same problem. What can I do to fix this?
First, uninstall again and then search for updates and it should appear. Right-click on it to hide, and it will not be downloaded or installed or appear again (but you can still get in case of need if she and him to download and install-, but I wouldn't do that). You will need to put it to manual and not automatic selection to do this. So, try the following:
Try to download and install manually by download on your desktop and install them one by one. Insert the number of KB to get updates on the right and choose the one corresponding to your version of Vista: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx.
If this does not work, try a boot minimum http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135 and disable your security software. See if the installation works. However, once don't forget to put Vista in normal status, as described in the procedures. If that does not work, uninstall it again.
Also read and execute the steps ofhttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058.
If this does not help, please transfer your question in Forum Windows Update:http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistawu/threads where updates experts will be happy to help you. Please post with the information requested here:what to post in the Windows Update forum
I hope this helps.
