Why all my desktop icons did stop working?
None of my desktop icons work. I don't know when they stopped working since I don't use them often. I can always access programs from the start menu. Maybe this related to updates?

all my desktop icons were gone I have not all documents, photos etc frpm a user account
Original title:
User accounts
I have 3 user accounts on my welcome screen which is admin. normally, I click on my own account. When I made the other day all my desktop icons went I have all the documents, pictures, etc. I though I had lost them up to what I went to c/users/selected my user account and everything is there. I seems the account that I click the home screen is not a link to my account?
Please can someone help?
I tried to restore to an earlier date that did not work.
When you create a new user, the directory will not present until you connect for the first time this new user. The fast way so disconnect and connect under the newly created user. After that, the folder would be present.
The way alternative copy of the files on an external drive and copy then back also works, but there are also that you connect as long as this new user to do this.
The top of the default user folder account Security page is [heart] to this user and administrators only (that's why the lock symbol). You should be able to bypass this security, if you are signed in with an account that has administrator privileges. Otherwise, you will need to log on as the owner of this folder, right-click on the folder-> Security (tab) and change the security to allow access by other users.

Error on blackBerry Smartphones: Blackberry Desktop Manager has stopped working
I use Desktop Manager 4.7.0.32 with a Blackberry Bold (9000); I sync with Outlook 2007 and I am running Windows Vista 64-bit Ultimate w / SP1. Synchronization worked well for many years with previous blackberries, but the synchronization problem appeared after a year or two of use with my previous camera curve. I replaced the curve with the bold thinking which damaged equipment could be the problem (one too many drops).
However, the problem persists. While it seems I can synchronize with success a way (from PC to BB), Director of office falls down to halfway through synchronization of calendar entries in a synchronization two-way, unless there has been no new entry calendar on the BB. The error is an error generated windows inidcating: Blackberry Desktop Manager has stopped working.
I tried every solution I could find on the web, namely:
- Uninstalling and reinstalling Desktop Manager, making sure that I run the installer as administrator.
- My Blackberry wiping and reinstalling the operating system (I use 4.6.0.162)
- Delete the Intellisync folder
- Run scanpst on my Outlookpst file
- Clear the entries of calendar on the Blackberry (temporary solution only)
The latter is the only approach that has produced no results. If I delete the entries on the Blackberry, the
process synchronization adds them correctly, and the next time I run the synchronization, it works without a hitch. As soon as I did all the entries on the BB unit however, Desktop Manager crashes again, and the only way I can make it work is to clear the entries on the Blackberry and start over.
I'm several months and both handsets of BB has invested in this issue now. I have a new fancy camera, but am recorded in writing of the appointments on paper when I am out of the office because I know they used to synchronize if I enter them at BB. Type of defeated half the point of a blackberry...?
Getting desperate here. Help is appreciated.
Brad
Hello Brad!
I had the same annoying problem that you guys have described here.
After trough fishing a lot of post and forums I found a very surprising solution for another type of BB and a different version of the DM on XP and not Vista. Being desperate I tried and miraculously it worked!Start the DM BB and go - Syncronize - set - synchronisation - synchronization (button) - calendar - Advanced (button) - mapping fields (field mapping button) and I got rid of the synchronization between the flag "alarm" and the "free occupied" and the fields "invited".
I did it and now everything works perfectly.
I have a BB Bold, Vista Ultimate (32 bit), MSOffice 2007 (PRO) and a DMv4.7.
I hope it will work for you also.
Kind regards

Original title: the task bar icons
Several months ago the button, if that's what it's called, the task bar that displays hidden icons has stopped working. Can I get a virtual device driver format in the registry is incorrect when you use a disk with the drivers on this subject. I found information on how to correct this problem and now the botton of task bar work again although it works until the computer is used for a while. How is the hidden icon button suppose to work or it should be visible all the time? Also the virtual device driver registry entry has something to do with it? I think that the problem of the DMV has installed a Norton program antivirus software that was on a disc that came with the computer.
Hello
1 have had any changes made to your computer before this problem?
I suggest you try the methods mentioned below and check if it helps:
Method 1:
You can also scan your computer the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.
The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.
Hope this information is useful.

My hp psc 1350 all-in-one has suddenly stopped working.
My hp psc 1350 all-in-one has suddenly stopped working. I can no longer open the software by clicking on the icon in the dock.
Sorry, but I thought that I had reported my all-in-one had started working again. Unfortunately, I can't say what went around, because I don't know. I had only a small part of the way towards what we'll fix me it when he started to work again. I remember that there was a step that I have been unable to finish, and when I asked how to overcome this problem, it started working again. I don't even have the chance to follow the final instructions. I would rather know what was wrong and what are the fixed elements, but I'll have to settle for a working machine.

All programs win explore has stopped working
When I opened my pc that it says windows Explorer has stopped working, the trend has stopped rederz.exe work has stopped working and all programs stopped working what is the problem?
Hello
Start with, there is no file called rederz.exe in a Windows installation or any software that I can find in a quick search. If the file name is correct and that you have not created yourself, you are probably infected by a virus any. I start in safe mode and focus on the two deleting the file and boot entry that loads. Trend should not work in normal mode, because the bug is loading and actively holdouts, who could explain easily why he and the Explorer shell stop working.

"Remote Desktop connection has stopped working" problem on Windows 7.
When I try to connect to one of my Windows 2003 servers from my Windows 7 Ultimate pc, I get an error:
"Remote Desktop connection has stopped working". It has something to do with the NLAapi.dll. If I rename this dll, TS works very well. I used the dll from another computer running Windows 7 RC and it works too, but in one of these two cases, while it corrects the TS connection, it causes other errors, maily with the network and sharing Center. Long story short, I think that there is a bug with nlaapi.dll. I can connect properly to my boxes of Windows XP SP3 servers. I ran all the updates on my 2 k 3 box, but still does not work.Here is the log of the event viewer:

All my desktop icons disappeared from my Windows 7 Desktop and toolbar on the bottom is misssing
All my desktop icons disappeared from my Windows 7 Desktop and toolbar on the bottom is misssing. all I get is my pic of screensaver. I can't draw anything.
Oh! If you think it's a Virus/Malware then take your HARD drive internal to another machine and have it is scanned with a good Antivirus updated. If nothing else works the hard way is to format your machine.
