• When I go to the Windows website I see an announcement to say that "Windows 8 for $14.99. Is this a legitimate site and the deal?

  This is supposed to be a thing where if you buy a new computer, you can switch to Windows 8 when it comes out for $14.99. When I try to go on the site, I get a popup saying that Firefox crashes due to a certificate problem. Is this a secure site? Here is the site showing the ad.  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Home. The ad reads "Windows 8 for $14.99.  I don't understand why I can't access the site. I just bought a new computer (not the one I'm using now) from Best Buy and it should benefit from this. Can someone explain?

• I received a phone call from a fellow of the center of Windows Service in Ontario

  original title: Windows repair center

  I received a phone call from a classmate of the Service Windows in Ontario reports saying they received a lot of error in my computer and he was going in wrong places. I had no idea. His name was Nelson Jones, and he was actually control my computer. That interested me. Also, he wanted me to register with Windows Server so that they could help solve my computer issues, at a cost, of course, I expect if it is not a scam. Is there a way that can be verified. I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

  It is a phishing attempt! Do not give any information.

  Reported people on these calls for a person who represents Windows (note: not Microsoft).

  It is a scam! Not to follow their instructions or advice and not to provide ANY information to them.

  Because they use the internet lines and/or phone to complete their fraud, there may be federal agencies in your country who are interested in discovering their calls. Their report directly to the appropriate agency if you feel you can contribute to their arrest and the charges.

  Microsoft do NOT pick up the phone and start dialing customers and never phones/e-mails asking for personal information or asking them to visit a web site!

  What is the exact error you receive everything trying to uninstall this program?

  Try to Uninstall the program in a clean boot state.

• Hi all. How can I manage the preferences that LR do not take up space on my MAC hard drive and works only on the external hard drive?

  Hi amireos,

  Yes, you can create your workflow where you can keep all your images on the external hard drive and the Lightroom catalog file as well.

  If you start with Lightroom and then use the Destination location as external hard drive when you import your image of the external source such as a camera or SD.

  If you already have your Images on the Mac HD drive, then play all your Image on the external hard drive first and then import images directly from there.

  Finally, you can change the location of the Lightroom Catalog as well.

  Default location: folder on the Mac Drive HD, there is folder called Lightroom that you can move on the external drive too (however catalog Lightroom can't memory space as its only import previews of the images is not the real image and full)

  Once you move the file catalog Lightroom external hard disk, then you need to browse the catalog file when you launch Lightroom only once.

  See thread: LR catalog moving on external hard drive

  Let us know if it helps.

  Kind regards

• Today, 26 September 2011: I finally decided to download version 6. I received a message that my java script is not compatible with this version. He did a search, and said that he could not find an update. I need Java script. What now?

  Using Window XP Pro with service pack 3 and all updates. I uninstalled version 6 and now back to version 4. 4 GB of ram and over a hundred gigs of storage. Don't use not Norton or McAfee. Check my settings, I find java is enabled, but still "java not installed" on many sites. I went back to version 4, so I can only load the info troubleshooting from there.

  It's not JavaScript which is incompatible / people with disabilities, this is the Java Console, which is incompatible or disabled. The Java Console is installed with every update of Java and is not necessary for most users; Read what follows in the Java Console
