Why the computer preformance decreases when documents are stored on the desktop?
you have a "document" that explains - only shortcuts to programs should go to the desktop?
* original title - only program shortcuts should go on the Office *.
I really think that most of it comes from the icon cache and the time of Windows 95, nothing more. The desktop icons are consuming a small amount of RAM, the question is did it really matter that much on the machines of today, and it really mattered on Windows 95 machines with enough RAM, like 32 MB or more.
You can see ancient literature of technical Toolkit for more information on the bottlenecks of memory bottlenecks and suggestions to solve them. Since the Server 2000 Resource Kit:
Solve a memory bottleneck
Although adding memory is an easy solution for a memory bottleneck, it shouldn't be the first option, that you agree. Try the following, more profitable alternatives before you spend money on additional memory. If you decide eventually to add memory, note that the maximum amount of memory recommended for a computer running Windows 2000 Server is 4 GB.
Monitor your applications and replace or correct those that a memory leak or use it inefficiently.
Modify your application in order to improve locality of reference. The Working Set Tuner, included in the Platform SDK, recommends an optimal organization of the code functions. For more information, see the MSDN link on the Web Resources page at http://windows.microsoft.com/windows2000/reskit/webresources .
Increase the size of the pagefile. Generally, the more you can do, the better. You can also have multiple paging files, but you should have several files of pagination by physical drive when the drive is not partitioned into logical drives. Volume aggregated by bands can be used. This helps to improve the rate of reading / writing to the pagefile because the work is distributed on multiple disks.
Check the available space on your disks. If you use a large swap file space is not available, this can produce symptoms of a memory bottleneck.
To conserve memory, avoid using certain display and sound effects. Who can drain memory offers animated cursors, desktop icons, wallpaper large bitmap and some screen saver programs; deleting or disabling can offer certain benefits in a limited-memory system. Reduce the color depth and screen resolution display can also save memory, but to a lesser extent.
To free memory, disable services that you don't use. Stop services that you do not regularly saves memory and improves the performance of the system. However, make sure you that understand the ramifications to stop a service before do you.
Remove the drivers and unnecessary protocols. Similarly slow protocols use space in the pools of memory paginated and not paginated. Drivers also use memory. You can see how a driver uses the memory with the parser in Pool (Poolmon.exe).
Replace the 16-bit systems with 32-bit systems for better reliability and performance.
If you have other computers that are underutilized, move applications in memory of these computers.
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc938584.aspx
Icons on the desktop MAKE use memory, but seriously, how much difference is really only at this time? In my opinion the last word goes to the NT4 Resource Kit:
"If all else fails, add memory. After struggling with a neck memory bottlenecks and exhausting effects, you will find the best answer of the whole system is well worth the investment. »

Where the documents are stored?
I scanned a document using my Canon application and selected the option to save as a PDF on my mobile device. I can not for the life of me find where it is stored - is not in iBooks or any other PDF reader that I have on my iPad. Any ideas, please?
Documents are stored in the application in which they are created or saved. I don't know anything about the app to Canon, but have you looked into this app to see if the PDF file has been registered it? If that were the case, you can move the PDF file in another application by tapping on the share icon by selecting any application that appears in this window.

When indexes are stored in the Oracle?
I just read that "the index blocks have been already in memory. Can someone explain this please? I thought that the indexes are waiting in the data file?
In other words, I'm learning the location of index.

For Oracle, this means a block of data (and an index is simply a particular piece of data) must be read (disk) storage and placed in memory (buffer) before it can be used for anything.
When you say "data cannot be used (acted on, analyzed, etc.) until it is in the memory." Then, please correct me if I'm wrong, the first operating system or get the expected data from disk to memory, then these data are used in memory.
Is there any document relating to this information.
Thank you for your remarkable knowledge.
Do you want to confirm? You know, it would be far too costly to try to read the disc things and process. That's why Oracle would bring the contents of the disc in its structure of memory (buffer cache) before he would let you access and process them.

Usually, the Office Assistant filter does not remove the icons, they are moved to a folder and you can put them on the desktop if you want. The folder that is automatically created the first time, the wizard removes icons is
C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Desktop\Unused desktop shortcuts.But back to your question:

1. right click on an empty spot on the desktop and then click Properties to open the display properties dialog box.
2. click on the Desktop tab.
3. click on the desktop to open the desktop items dialog box customize.

Why the desktop icons all move to the left of the screen on any update?
I place all the icons of the convenient positions, not on the grid. But whenever I do any upgrade of Microsoft or others, all icons move to the left side of the screen, sometimes on the grid and sometimes not, sometimes restart and sometimes not. I'm really tired of having to move all icons when this happens. I even tried locking icons on the desktop, but that does not work either.
.
Make sure that the reorganization is not selected when you right-click on the desktop. That said, you can still see this problem if you do not have to line up on the grid.
This tool will make your icons back where they were if there is no other resolution.

Windows 7 and Office 2010 have made me really want to do not use a computer... I have a business online (successfully) and uses a computer for 18 years. This "not compatible" nonsense, "is no longer supported" is just this absurdity. It's as if they're building a new road in your area, well you have to buy a new car! If they come out with new TV shows, you will need to buy a new TV. That Microsoft is not?

Every time after I get a Firefox Nightly update and run it, it will display the next page:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/nightly/firstrun/?oldversion=30.0 which is fine.
But when it opens this page, all my desktop icons go clear/white and one by one, they all return with their correct icons. And all this happens in a few seconds.
Why is the operation of Firefox every night for the first time, my desktop icons?I suspect that you have both nightly and Firefox version installed?
"The Firefox 'about' shows 30.0. and I've now checked for updates and are now running 33.1.1"
It's different from what you have first published here with!
Firefox 33.1.1 represents the latest version - a 32-bit version.Whereas, the version you first posted here with was a generation of 64-bit channel every night from July. Every night is for "Alpha-testers" and is updated every day, where the name of "night".
Everything that happens in the background on the Windows desktop should not be of concern right now, every night Win 64 bit is several months out.
If you really want to test the Win 64 Nightly builds, follow and participate in the very different evenings and son of 'channels' on MozillaZine forum is based. -

Why my computer keeps stopping when I play facebook game
My computer uses the Ultimate version, and recently he maintains close itself when I play facebook games. No matter if I use Firefox or Google Chrome, it will stop after 10 minutes or so in the games. And I have to wait a few minutes before I can turn the computer back on. Please can someone help me with this problem. The computer seems to work on other pages, well, only facebook games give me the problem.
Thank you very much.
Serena
Sounds like a hardware problem, could be one of the following:
(1) if it is a new PC, you must call/contact manufacturing because it should covered by a service contract.
(2) if it is a PC that you upgraded to Windows 7, then you should download device drivers for Windows 7 on your PC manufacturer's support web site. Also equally important to the driver for your graphics card.
ATI: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx
NVIDIA: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index5.aspx?lang=en-us
(3) if its an overheating problem, remove side trim and blow out the dust bunnies using a can of compressed air. This includes the heatsink and fan, power (evacuate nozzle with compressed air from the inside outwards) and dust from the motherboard and the case. Ensure that the card fan also. Note: Take the PC outside when you do!
