Why some of my website in my office shortcuts appear as "generic"?

I've read so many posts on this problem... my head is spinning!  One thing I hear is that it is not a question of MS, but a Web site.  I'm certainly not a computer genius, however, I have lived a little MS and IE remakes and I've never had a problem of creating an icon of office from a Web site that visually represented the site he has created.  Never had a problem, that is, until I downloaded IE8!  Half of my icons now appear as either the generic IE icon, the planet or a white 'piece of paper', with a small icon in the middle.  Most of them is all the icons I had on my desk for a long time.  Despite the fact that those who are kind enough to offer their wisdom and advice freely insist that this is how it has always been, a website, not a MS, problem, I disagree.  The common denominator almost people who have posted about this or similar questions, seems to be ie8.  Although several workaround solutions have been posted on other forums, the problem remains... that there is a problem!  A solution is what is required, and it's a shame that Microsoft has so little recognition for the source of their success, they continue to ignore this issue!

  • Why some users have file option > SharePoint/Office 365 Server > archive?

    All members of the team have the same permissions in SharePoint. We can all see a doc in SharePoint. Some of us then have an option on the file menu in Acrobat that says ' SharePoint/Office 365 Server' with a 'Check In' option under this. Some members of the team do not have this option.

    How can we solve this so that everyone has the ability to easily check in an update for SharePoint?

    Cheryl Bowsher

    Hi Cheryl,

    Check the version of Acrobat for all users, it should be same and updated, i.e. 11.0.6

    Your username gets 'Check In' option via web browser?

    What is the version of SharePoint you use and what is the exact workflow?

    Kind regards

  • Why some of my websites not load completely after loading 7.0.1?

    I've upgraded to 7.0.1... CNN, eBay, webemail, banjohangout.org (windows modal script requires the widget files) and a few other Web sites do not open properly. I'm running XP 32. I upgraded the Radeon x 1600 video drivers updated to v. 8.593 (10.2). Solve problems in Firefox says 7.0.1 WebGL & blocked GPU... the customer needs to move to c. 10.6 or more. ATI (manufacturer) has no V.10.6. What now?

    This solution doesn't work in Firefox 7.0.1 and also does not work in Firefox 8.0. Unable to access ebay, also cannot access the www.floorskills.com.

    But, by disabling the cache and cookies, I re - connect to all other websites I use.

  • Why some of my icons to the taskbar sometimes fail to load at startup?

    Can anyone suggest why some of my icons on the taskbar often fail to load at startup.  I have Win7 set to display all icons (IE do not hide)

    Thank you very much

    Hi Mike,.

    Here is a checklist that you can go through potentially solve your problem. When you have gone through the list, re - start of course to see if the icons will load at startup after you perform these steps:

    (A) uncheck "Auto-hide the taskbar", as appropriate:

    .. Right-click on the taskbar, select properties and find 'Auto-hide the taskbar' tab taskbar

    (B) turn off the composition of the Bureau:

    1. right click on computer > properties

    2 advanced System Settings

    3. in the course of execution, click settings

    4. check (enable) or uncheck the Enable (disable) the Composition of the Bureau

    5. apply

    Updated C) drivers:

    Maybe it's the drivers for your hardware components that need to be updated.  Although Windows 7 tries to install drivers for as much as possible, the drivers - who often change - may not be the latest film from the manufacturer's Web site.

    You can check the latest updates of Windows and install the latest drivers available. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. click on start, all programs and then Windows Update.

    2. click on search for updates on the left of the screen.

    3. If updates are available, go ahead and install them.

    You can also check for the drivers from Device Manager.

    1. open Device Manager by clicking the Start button, click on the Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking Device Manager. ?

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    2 search for graphics cards and expand it. Now, right-click on it and select Properties.

    3. click Driver tab and click Update driver. Windows will now try to find the latest drivers for the graphics card.

    4 restart the computer after installation and verification.

    You can also follow this link to update the drivers:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/update-a-driver-for-hardware-that-isn ' t-work correctly

    In addition, go to the website of your computer manufacturer and check if the latest driver updates are available.

    (D) close all programs in the Notification area:

    Try closing all programs that are running in the area of Notification and control for the issue. See the link below.

  • why some pictures come out blurry in imovie

    why some pictures come out blurry in imovie

    Photos appear often blurred in the viewer while playing a movie in the timeline.  It is simply because iMovie is to reduce the resolution to limit the processing power required to play without lag.  It becomes clearer when you stop playing.  This does not affect the quality of the shared movies.

  • Why some games and other programs need to be "run as Administrator" mode in 7RC which worked fine in normal mode on 7 beta and vista?

    Why some games and other programs must be run in Admin mode in 7RC which worked fine in normal mode on 7 beta and vista?

    An example of this is the game Guild Wars (www.guildwars.com). I had problems with this with random programs.

    cbello57,
    Run as administrator may be required for some games and programs because they have a permission structure different in Vista in Windows 7 (Windows 7 and Vista are different in how to manage certain permissions).

    I suggest test you installation of the game in the program by clicking on the Setup file by clicking on "Run as administrator".

    This will sometimes solve this kind of situation because it installed the program in a State of high permission.

  • Why some items in 'Open an existing project' have just the name of the project and others have access to the entire file path?

    I have SP1 2012 LabVIEW and on the main screne of LabVIEW selecrt "show projects".

    Why some elements of 'Existing Open' (project) have just the name of the project and others have access to the entire file path?

    Examples of two lines in the list of projects.

    Ping.lvproj (with a path: C:\Users\mlevine\Documents\MPCE EQT\EQT Software\Ping.lvproj)

    C:\Users\mlevine\Documents\Common package Mission trainer (CMPT) \SUW Surface Warfare\Weapon permission Panel (WAP) \WAP LabVIEW Software\WAP fire authorization server 28 April 2015

    No chance, it's because I made a copy of this software and stored on a network drive power off and it went out of this network drive?

    So if LabVIEW sees two or more versions of the same software, he decides to use the name to differentiate between full path?

    I'd still rather it shows just the name of the project and if you hover over the name it shows the full path.

    Thank you

    Mark

    If you have opened a project of the same name from a different location, it is when it shows the full path both - in this case showing just the name of the project would not help because it would be the same thing!

  • Features of the icon: why some icons contain green boxes with check marks?

    Original title: icon features

    Why some icons contain green boxes with check marks?  Ditto chiccory arrows & exclamation points?  Thank you.

    I assume you mean the file icons in Windows Explorer (my computer). The curved arrow indicates that the listed item is actually just a shortcut to a file or a program. The exclamation point and the green check mark will have something to do with the backup or archiving and depend on the settings you have made in Windows or backup software that you have installed.

    Because it's really a matter of Windows rather than specifically related to the word, I'll pass your question on a Windows forum.

  • Why some files are locked when scanning

    Why some files are locked during scanning. I use avg and scan of the entire computer. can anyone help?
    p.s., no other suggestions posted already worked.

    Ref: http://forums.avg.com/au-en/avg-forums?sec=thread&act=show&id=212602

    Please be informed that the locked files (files) also have access rights. If you run the command line scanning (or manual scanning of the AVG User Interface), it runs with the rights of the logged-on user. But to access some files (e.g. System Volume Information) you must have the rights SYSTEM (and similar).
    AVG scan on demand is executed with SYSTEM rights (under the SYSTEM account).

    • Locked file
      The reported file is locked, so cannot be scanned by me. Usually, this means that some files are constantly used by the system (e.g. swap file).
