    Ok.

    There is no kind of protection added by Premiere Pro, so that if anything it is a Mac issue.  My guess would be something to do with permissions.

  • Why are all my folders/files in the same display format? Win. 7

    A few days ago I had some folders/files in the "Détails" view, then I could get into this folder and the files/folders would be to "large icons". For some reason, all my folders/files turned to mode «Détails» If I changed the view of the "Large icons" folder, it would change just return to the 'Details' when I returned to the folder. I changed it if all folders/files are now to "Large icons", but it was so much easier having separate folders contain separate views. How can I return it to that?

    I use Windows 7 Home Premium.

    This article basically talks about about how take a point of view and copy to other folders, but it also explains how to do the opposite.  This also explains why the libraries do not allow this (which means that you can never have seen separate if you go to a library).

  • Why are all downloads hanging up in 1 second?

    For some reason, all that I tried to download today using Firefox hung up to 1 second.

    This applies to all the files of several download locations. Some files do not seem to download anyway, but in the browser, they are not finishing.

    Also, I can't cancel downloads, cause when I hit the X, he just did pause the download.

    Once paused, I can't take it back somehow. The only way to stop it is to close Firefox completely, to reopen and to cancel the download immediately.

    I tried to download using IE and it worked, but nothing on Firefox worked perfectly, even in safe mode.

    Any ideas?

    If you install a beta version, so move you the beta update channel as you can see in the help > topic.
    How to pass the update channel is to uninstall the current version and install the full version of the current Firefox version.
    Make sure that you do NOT delete your personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.
    Note that you may experience problems with the stored passwords if you would return to 31 Firefox in this profile and save a new password and update next week at Firefox 32 when it is released (Firefox 32 uses logins.json instead of signons.sqlite).

  • Why are all my icons windows media center?

    OK, so I have more than 50 programs on my computer, but something went wrong. All my programs have the icon of windows media center. So, when I click on a program, that he doesn't even go to this specific programme, it goes automatically to windows media center. It's really aggravating. So can you guys please answer. I tried to fix this problem, but its very frustrating and I am a very busy man.

    ... All my programs have the icon of windows 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. For the user or the Windows type world and LNK files, allowing to delete the file , rebuild a new default.

    Hello

    Microsoft doesn't develop hardware drivers. All hardware drivers coming through Microsoft Updates are provided by the hardware peripheral manufacturers.

    When you install a device and go to Microsoft Updates for a driver, updates will look at the hardware ID of the device and will offer a latest driver from the manufacturer of this device.
