• Outlook Express - will not let me delete any message

  Outlook Express will not let me delete all messages?  How can I fix?  Thank you!

  You have corruption of dbx files.

  Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and move the messages you want to record off deleted items, and sent items. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.

  Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

  In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

  With OE closed, find the Deleted Items.dbx and Sent Items.dbx files and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.

  Compact all folders as described below.

  To avoid this in the future:

  Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

  Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

  After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

  Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

  Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

  I have adobe Premiere elements 13. It will not let me delete audio or do fade in or out. I can move the yellow to the bottom line until the volume reads - 0.0, but the noise is still there during playback. I can click on fade in and fade out and the yellow line that chart volume takes a strong recovery or dip at the beginning or at the end of the clip, but there is no change in volume when I play back. What I am doing wrong?

  Rickey

  Thanks for the follow-up report.

  Just a lit bulb. Maybe the answer, maybe a spleen.

  Look carefully at the audio track of the timeline in the vicinity of title of the file.

  

  The title of your file audio timeline shows: level of Volume or something else. If something else, click the tiny triangle where

  the red arrow in the screen shot is sharp and select the Volume and then level so that you end up with

  Volume: level as shown in the screenshot.

  Hope it's the factor involved.

• Time Capsule will not let me delete a corrupted file

  I have a Time Capsule, and a folder on the hard disk called "Temp". In this, there is a corrupted .wmv file that is grayed out and seems to be corrupted to an earlier copy. But when I try to remove it I get: "the operation cannot be performed because one or more required elements was not found (error code - 43).

  I tried this:

  • Restart in Safe Mode, did not work.
  • Disk utility will not find the time Capsule.
  • Taken from the decision-making time Capsule to force a check of the file system.
  • Tried sudo rm - rf in the terminal.
  • Reset the NVRAM.

  I still get the same error and it is not on a Time Capsule image, it is just a normal file. It does not hurt, just bugs the life outta me. Any suggestions on how to remove this file?

  There are a number of things you can try. IF you can see the file in the Finder, I would download a freeware called lock-UnMatic.  http://AlternativeTo.NET/software/lock-unmatic/?platform=Mac is the Mac version of look-a-like of FileAssassin, produced an excellent PC.  Linking the TC for your MacBook, at least temporarily, using Ethernet instead of wireless can be a good thing to do.

  Give it a try, then display your results.  Good luck.

• Outlook express 6 will not let me delete emails

  I can't delete emails from my Inbox on my outlook file Express 6. I can read them and then they show that I have, however none will remove.

  [I swear to you that I had already answered in this post!]

  1. move all the messages that you want to keep out of the folders Inbox, sent items and deleted items and in other local OE folders have created you for archiving (backup) of such messages.

  2. Note the location of the store of your identity (http://www.insideoe.com/files/store.htm#storemain).

  2B. turn on "Show hidden folders and files" via start | Control Panel | Folder options | View (see http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial62.html).

  3. close OE.

  4. in Windows Explorer, navigate to your storage folder, find & delete the files Inbox.dbx , Outbox.dbx, Sent Items.dbxand Deleted Items.dbx.

  5 empty the trash.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  To avoid such problems in the future, comply with the following restrictions:

  N ' not use Inbox or sent items to archive messages.  Move them to local folders created for this purpose.

  -Empty the deleted items folder daily.

  -Frequently perform a manual compact of all OE while records that "work offline".  More on http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm

  -Do not cancel automatic compacting, where it would happen and do not try to close OE via Manager tasks or stop your Automatic compaction machine can take place.

  -Disable e-mail scanning in your antivirus application.  It can cause corruption (i.e., loss of messages) and offers no additional protection:

• BlackBerry Blackberry classic classic said memory of the device, but will not let me delete anything.

  "Preparing Blackberry Hub" does not load.

  If I load swip left to watch, he says prepare Blackberry Hub and 5 icons illuminate one by one, then a few seconds, black screen flashes, then 'Preparation Blackberry Hub' again and again. Never load of my texts and emails.  He eats my battery fast and I watch my % battery drop like crazy, more I leave "preparation Blackberry Hub" running in loops.

  Unable to send texts and incoming texts do not come. When I get to my contacts and try to text someone, he said: "full storage. Storage must be released to perform the operation requested text message".

  My top down swip in the menu drop-down has disappeared except for settings.

  When I try to delete files that I always see in the directoyr to free up space, it is said:

  Cannot delete files such blackberry no file or directory classic

  Help, please!

  I have installed any additional apps!

  I have the 10.3.1.1779 output software

  I have 1200 photos in my camera case! 100 or more of them, I need to register! I've never had a map memory will...

  Connection to the computer don't open files from my Blackberry. I can't find the drive on my computer...

  When I try to open the pictures folder it says error "your application cannot run because your built-in multimedia storage space is full. Delete some files or move them to your media card, & try again. »

  Then the box pop up behind the error box says "not enough space storage."and even your application cannot run etc etc"." I click on File Manager by his suggestion, butt, no files will delete that I pasted at the beginning of the present. And I can't open a picture, when I click on one it says only: "Unable to open" & the name of the file.  But I can scroll down and see my 1000 files, they all flower icon

  Good news!

  Remove all the apps in my Blackberry option did the trick!

  Is it my storage of 15.7 15.6, and after restarting my phone, charged to the top! My texts appear now in the hub and I can text again, and some texts in!

  I can now open my pictures folder and delete a few hundred images that are cluttering up this final cushion memory!

  And tonight I'll move everything on a memory card and erase the memory of the device!

  So people, when file manager tells you to remove the files, but he isn't listening to you when you try to delete the files, simply delete all applications such as Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, Evernote, etc. etc. etc.

  He has completely returned my Blackberry to normal!

  Now, I will take your advice my friend and upgrade to the latest version tonight and never leaves the device still so weak!

  FYI, now the volume up and down button doesn't restart after 10 seconds now or then, but the phone restarts again and again on his own, he doesn't stay offshore. I don't know if it's just me, but report.

• Oulook Express 6 it has an error and will not let me delete the email

  Original title: OUTLOOK EXPRESS 6 WINDOWS XP

  There out wrong and won't let me delete the email.  He still receives new e-mail.

  no problem viewing or respond.

  Anyone know an easy solution?

  the error code:

  An unknown error has occurred. Account: name, Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, error number: 0x800C0133

  Do as I have indicated above, but instead of moving most of the messages in your Inbox, all move them and delete the Inbox.dbx file as well.

  If you move all messages from the Inbox for a reason, do the above and then come back and move messages in the Inbox and then delete the Inbox.dbx with OE closed box.

• will not let me delete Java and other programs. Say I am running Windows in safe mode?

  Can not remove some programs

  Hello

  ·        Why are you starting in safe mode?

  ·        Do you see the safemode, written on all four sides of the screen?

  If you see you're starts in safe mode so you can't uninstall programs in safe mode since the Windows service install will not work in safe mode.

  Windows service install is responsible for installing and uninstalling a program on the system.

  I suggest to start the desktop normally and then check if you are able to uninstall the program on the system.
