Why windows 7 has been named this name?

Why windows 7 has been named this name?

This is because not all OS Windows is a set of 'version', in the same way that there are several versions of Mac OS X. Here's a more detailed explanation:

Windows 3.0, 3.1 and 3.11 used the number of version as part of their name. Windows NT followed suit with NT 3.1 and 3.5.

Windows 95 was technically version 4.0 and the version of the Windows NT 4.0 server. Win 98 was 4.10.1998, Win 98 SE was 4.10.222A and Windows Me was 4.90.3000.

Windows 2000 was the first version of the family of version 5, followed by Windows XP, which was version 5.1.

Windows Vista is version 6.0.

    Re - install iPhoto

    1 put the iPhoto.app in the trash (to drag it from the Applications folder to the trash)

    2 download on the App Store to reinstall is on your shopping list * it.

    For older versions that were installed from the disk, you need the following additional steps:

    2a: on 10.5: go to HD/library/receipts and remove any pkg file it with iPhoto in the name.

    2b: on 10.6: these recipes can be found as follows: in the Finder, use the menu go to and select go to folder. In the type of window that results from

    / var/db/receipts /.

    2 c: 10.7 or later, they will be

    / private/var/db/Receipts

    A Finder window opens at this location and you can delete the files pkg of iPhoto.

    3. replace in place.

    If you bought a disc of iLife, iPhoto is then on it.

    If iPhoto has been installed on your Mac, when you go to it then it is on the restore disks from the system provided with your Mac. Insert the first and choose "install Bundled Applications only.

    * Sometimes, iPhoto is not visible on the shopping list. It may be hidden. See this article for more details on how to view it.

    http://support.Apple.com/kb/HT4928

    A question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?

    iPhoto, the application and the iPhoto library are two different parts of the iPhoto program. So, reinstall the application should not affect the library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.


  • Windows 8 has been deleted and my windows.old/programfiles?

    I was rather annoyed that windows 8, rather than integrate my existing programs and settings, pushed everything including parameters in windows.old/ProgramFiles (what is the point of having a check box that says 'keep existing settings' if it has not yet rendered my inaccessible email until I downloaded windows live mail again?)

    However, after hours of violin, I managed to do a combination of programs to re - install and run with difficult settings from the file directory windows.old/program through desktop shortcuts
    In recent days the shortcuts no longer works and I see windows 8 has been deleted and my windows.old/programfiles directory!
    It is not in my trash, it isn't in my forties AVG

    Anyone know where it is!
    I did not understand why windows 8 should go through all my programs from the road, so it would take me hours to do shortcuts... but deleting the entire directory and my settings? Come on, this is ridiculous
    HELLLLP!

    Depends entirely on this laptop you have. If it has a 64-bit processor
    You can use 64-bit Windows. If a 32-bit CPU, you can't.

    If you don't know you have, hold down the Windows key and press
    Break | Break. It will tell you if you have a 32-bit
    processor or 64-bit processor.

  • My SYSTEM WINDOWS 7 has been down since 09/25/12, I get an error on all solutions.

    My SYSTEM WINDOWS 7 has been down since 09/25/12, I get an (error) on all the solutions, I can't have a phone number to talk to a person.

    What the computer does? Have what solutions you tried?

    You may need to start over with a clean slate. A facility "to return to the factory" would get your system operational return...

    Note that unless you save all the important things, it would be lost after the reset. If your computer does not at all to the top, you will need to remove the hard drive and connect it to another computer in order to save the important things...

    Re start over... Your computer is equipped with a recovery instead of disk partition...

    This is how the recovery partition is accessible to most popular brands...

    For Dell, press CTRL + F11 directly after switching on the device

    For HP, press F11 directly after switching on the device

    For Toshiba, press and hold "0" BEFORE and during the power upward

    For Acer, press and hold ALT + F10, as soon as you see the logo

    For Asus, press F9, as soon as you see the Asus logo.

    Advent, restart your computer. Then, press F10 repeatedly until the message "Starting system recovery"

    Sony VAIO, restart and until that screen "Advanced Boot Options" appears, press "F8".

    You may need to try several times to get everything above to work. If after several attempts, you have no chance, or the machine indicates that there is no recovery partition, your only option is to contact the computer manufacturer and ask for the model recovery discs...

    After the reset, you should get all the updates from Windows Update EXCEPT for hardware devices. Then, you install a good antivirus. ONLY AFTER you have done this, if you replace the stuff of backups or install anything else.
