  • Management of user accounts and Parental control in Windows 8

    Hello

    I'll post a thread on how to manage the user accounts and Parental control in Windows 8.

    A user account allows you to connect to Windows 8. By default, your computer already has a user account that you have been
    needed to create when you configure Windows 8. If you want to share your computer, you can create a separate for each Member of your household or office user account. You can also choose to associate any user account with a Microsoft account. Signature with a Microsoft account will bring all your SkyDrive files, contacts and more in the start screen. You can even connect to another computer that has Windows 8 and all your important files will be there.

    Here is a video on how to manage the user accounts and Parental control in Windows 8.

    Also, here is a document showing you how to manager Our user on Windows 8.

    If you have any questions let me know.

  • Music: How can I transfer all of the music files to another user account

    How can I transfer all of the music files to another user account

    In simple terms, simply copy it to an external drive and then copy them back as the other user.  If files are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management) as iTunes from Apple or Napster, you will need to know your service music, if the files can be copied.

  • How to change account Adminstrative existing to another user account in Vista

    Hi, one of my daughters has administrative control within his user account on the family computer.  Due to the amount of problems the pc is supported due to virus, blocking, etc., I want to have admin control so that only I can make it work.

    Of course, my daughter wants to keep everything that is in his account at the moment.  Could someone advise me please:

    1. What is the best way to change the settings in order to give me the only access road to the admin account?

    2 safely transfer or keep the existing files of my daughter to a new user account under his name (to exclude order admin)?

    Thanks in advance.

    > 1 What is the best way to change the settings in order to give me the only road access to the admin account?

    The ONLY way is to ask your daughter to make your own account as an administrator.
    Only the administrator has privileges to do so. No one else.

    >>>>2. safe, transfer or keep the existing files of my daughter to a new user account under his name (to exclude order admin)?

    Nothing to transfer. If your daughter agrees to waive its rights to admin and to your administrator, then all what they (or you) must do is change his account to admin for the standard user account. No transfer of files are needed.
    Make sure that the new account admin (probably yours) is in working condition, first before she changes her account type. Otherwise you will not end up wth no system administrator account.

  • Possible for another user account different screen resolution?

    I would like to have the resolution of different screen for the account of another user on the same computer system.  I found that when I change the resolution, it applies to all accounts, so the customization doesn't really work in this sense.

    I know we can use Magnifier or enlarge the fonts or images on each screen by turning the mouse wheel while holding down the control key.  However, this is not good for someone just not good in computer but not disabled and it is extra work that the user has to do to be able to use the computer.

    You cannot change the resolution, but you can change the DPI. Go to the settings on the display page and increase or decrease the font size to the desired size. This is the workaround we use in our domain environment for users who want the largest size of the text.

    This is a per user setting.

  • EBook, associated with another user account

    I bought my wife a pocket of Sony E-Reader for Christmas, I also bought an ebook of waterstones. I sent him the .ascm file it has received and immediately opened on his cell phone, he opened with Adobe Digital Editions and was able to see and read the ebook (I guess it was an annonymous account).

    To transfer the newly bought for my wifes reader book, I created an Adobe ID and then allowed his PC to this account. The E-Reader appears on ADE but I'm unable to copy into the e-reader. He says that the ebook is associated with a different user account.

    Does anyone know how I can fix this problem and why it appeared in the first place?

    Thanks in advance,

    Rick

    You will need to work with their technical support to get a new download link of the file/.acsm which has not yet been associated with a particular user.

    One you have has a transaction ID that is associated, which has already been used to create a license for a different user (E_LIC_ALREADY_FULFILLED_BY_ANOTHER_USER).  In this case, the other user is enabling anonymous original who marries you orginally was on the computer.

  • Unable to access the user account

    I have an old computer, but it is always useful.  On startup, I get this message:

    "Windows cannot load the locally stored profile.  Possible causes of this error include insufficient security rights or a damaged local profile.  If the problem persists, contact your network administrator.

    DETAILS - an operation i/o initiated by the registry failed irreparably.  The registry could not read, write or flush, one of the files that it contains the image of the registry system. »

    What can I do to access my account and My Documents with all my stuff in it?

    Thank you very much!

    Try to find that the problem with the user account is probably not worth the time it would take. Restart the computer in Safe Mode. When you are prompted, choose to log in to the administrator account. Go to control panel > user accounts. Create a new account here. Name anything at random for now. Now navigate to my computer > C drive open > Documents and Settings folder. Your old user account. Now locate all records containing your files. Copy and paste them in the folder appropriate for the new account. Now delete the old account.  You can now change the name of the new account name you had in the old account. It is probably the best way to fix it.
