• What do you do when windows and buttons is gray out?

  Hi, my name is Rhionna and I have a problem on my Windows XP Service pack 3. Well, last night, I scanned my PC for registry errors there were some and I fixed them, but now I can not apply visual styles. Windows and buttons in properties is grey outside, it wasn't before but today I went to a link to a website to try to repair the files in my theme after that, it was gray would be out so what do I do? :(

  Registry cleaners are dangerous programs.  I do not recommend their use for these sorts of reasons.  Your best bet at the moment is to restore your registry to a time before you had this problem using "System Restore".  One of these two methods, you should get going again.

• What do you do when everty time you access something need you for windows media center

  It started with microsoft. Whenever I tried to access my Microsoft pages it took me to windows media center. Now, everything is in the Center. The only way I can get online is through a back door. I tried to change the default values for the Center, but the only default parameters listed are the original ones.
  Windows Media Center has taken control of my computer. Help!

  From what you have stated above, I think that the file association for LNK files has been given misdirection to the Media Center. I've seen this happen when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After selecting the Windows Media Center (or another program) via the Select a program from a list of programs installedand check always use the selected program to open this type of file (circled in red below), the document or program referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in Windows Media Center as it should.

  

  The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the browser will want to be opened by Windows Media Center and Windows Media Center icon to view the shortcut no matter what shortcut was originally intentioned to open. This is known as a file association and the default icon. The same condition can occur if you have performed these actions 'Open with' on one. JPG or even a. EXE, but the. LNK explanation is much more likely for the items on the desktop.

  The good news is that a small free utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is also a registry hack to achieve, but I recommend the utility unAssoc for its ease of use. I used to send people on another site to download this utility, but this site has become confused with all the ads and fake download links. I put a copy on by SkyDrive own here.

  

  Just download, then use the utility to unassociate the. LNK files for the user or globally delete the file type and let windows rebuild a new default.

• I have Dreamweaver CC. What do you do when your system does not start and a clean install of windows is necessary?

  What happens to my subscription? What is the best procedure? I have to disable the app? If so, how? Thanks for your help!

  Not to worry, activation of the subscription can be activated on 2 devices.

  Also formatting hard drive will not change the MACAddress etched. activations are interdependent with Mac ID Machine

  You can go ahead and re - format your comp.

  Even if just in case, if you get the error like exceeded Maximum activations, you can reset it urself.

  He will ask an option as a sign out for all other devices, if you click on it, it returns number of activations to 0, so that you can connect and turn on any of the 2 devices according to your choice.

• What do you call this window?

  Safari is not well fonctionnee this morning. After a few reboots, flushes the cache and choice swear words that my original problem has evaporated. But it does not lead to my current question: what we call this window?

  

  A few minutes ago, it was not showing the list of Favorites and I had no idea how to do to troubleshoot it. That's when I realized that I don't know what we call this window. I * know is not a Finder window, since it opens during registration or downloading a file in Safari and not when I'm in the operating system.

  Any help?

• What do you do when a DVD is the only one of the images that you got?

  OK, so here is the story, I posted something like this about a week on a discussion forum earlier, but now some of the components have changed.

  A family member took some of our reel 8mm film transfer to have put images on DVD somewhere. Well the DVD's very, but I wanted to participate in this DVD and edit it so that I could make a film tribute of documentry about my father who died awhile back. On this DVD, ago about 8 minutes from the right sequence of him I would use, so I used a trial DVD Ripper/converter software and converted to MPEG2 and the results were excellent, quality appeared just as good as the DVD and I'd be fine with use for my documentry/tribute film, when I imported into first 1.5 it plays fine on the monitor and he actually plays great on the timeline, no complaints. Now when I'm going to make it, he plays all jerky as executives get all messed up or something. On this earlier discussion I posted this information, people had replied that I need to get the 8mm film and transferred it to mini DV or on a hard drive, so I can edit it from there. Although the problem is the film 8mm original got thrown after the DVD, so all I have is the DVD. Is there any setting I can change in first it is so jerky all like it when I make it or is it possible that I can have the DVD transferred to mini DV tape and then change it to first as usual? I don't know what to do and I really need the images on the DVD. I realize I'm going to lose quality, but that's all I have, so I have to make it work. Video transfer locations have the opportunity to put a DVD into a format which usually lose a lot of quality, is it possible to transfer mini-DV or is there a way I can? Please, please help,

  Thank you

  Jason

  For those following along at home, I said to Jason by PM.

  A large part will be eliminated, but given the situation, my recommendation is to use either a digital video camera with passthrough (or bridge of A & D) capabilities to food from the drive of DVD and DV - AVI Type II capture for editing. Yes, there will be always the first compression MPEG-2 (no way around it), and then, if the DVD-video is the scheduled release, another MPEG-2 transcoding.

  I had suggested going back to the maximum with the flow, transcoding this topic to use in a DVD-video.

  I hope that someone else has a plan even better for Jason, so that can get the best possible result, regardless of what the source of the layer footage is in this case.

  It is also unnecessary to suggest that goes back to the original 8mm, they no longer exist. Obviously, if possible, which would be ideal and fair telecine on a miniDV cassette. Unfortunately, this is not a possibility.

  Open to other ideas,

  Hunt
