    create dvd Windows will not import the mp4, how to get around it, someone knows?

    It must convert your mp4 to WMV format video, and then add the wmv in Windows DVD Maker.

    There are other formats supported by Windows, but I chose WMV format because it is the most reliable and foolproof format for Windows.

    You can google for a free video converter. No need to buy one, unless you are a 'huge' in the making of films and others.

    I use Prism video converter. It's free.

    I'm not fan of movie maker. Prism is what I need it to do.

  • Computer will not use the drive when you restart.

    I have a Pavilion dv 9000 and had problems more and more lately (win explorer fails, application launcher fail, blue screens, crashes etc.).

    I decided to use the recovery disk that was created at first boot. According to all the manuals that I found (on - and offline), it is just to put the recovery disk in the DVD-ROM and restart.

    The problem is that nothing happens. The computer does not use the disk when it reboots.

    Anyone experienced the same problem with the recovery disk?

    I'm not having any other problems with the ROM, works perfektly once Windows is running.

    Thank you

    You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    For some reason, windows will not read dvd or cd or the floppy one and the flash drives or cards of the camera with a usb drive. What would cause this and how then I get back to work? All media works on the other pc.

    Always connect these devices to drive/USB card edge USB connection (for desktop Front panel USB ports); never use a connector of the control panel back or USB hubs.

It was perfectly good wifi before the system restore and other members of my family have a great connection except me is not a problem with my router. I think I know what the problem is, but I just don't know how to fix it. So there you go. I did my restore system about 2 days after that we moved on the provider of internet/tv "Comcast" to the tv/internet provider "Verizon". what I think has happened, is that I restored my computer to the point when we had no Verizon so that he could not find the network. Now, since we have Comcast it won't identify this network either, so maybe some of you out there could help me. : D

  • Image Viewer Windows will not import the photos. Says it can't read DSCF7703

    All of a sudden, I can't import pictures from my camera using Windows or Windows 7 photo viewer.  When I plug the camera into the USB port and cliclick click the import photos and videos, import window rises and locates photos, then when I click on import, I get a window with a

    error message that says: "the following erro has occurred occurred when importing DSCF7703.jpg.»  The system cannot read the specified device.  I downloaded on this computer many pictures of this camera and it has always worked well.  If I change the importing program, it still does not.

    All of a sudden, I can't import pictures from my camera using Windows or Windows 7 photo viewer.  When I plug the camera into the USB port and cliclick click the import photos and videos, import window rises and locates photos, then when I click on import, I get a window with a

    =============================
    Perhaps you could import the photos manually:

    Connect the camera to the computer via a USB cable and
    Turn on the camera.

    Reach... Start / computer / removable devices
    Storage...

    Look at the drive letters and see if one of them
    represents the camera. He can say removable disk

    If the camera is recognized... right click on the drive letter
    and from the menu choose... Open or explore.

    The directory of the memory card in the camera must
    poster and if you browse through the various
    files, you must find the photo files.

    Once found... you can copy/paste the pictures in a folder
    on your hard drive.

    Simple and the best solution IMHO is to use an internal
    or external USB memory card reader.

    It will not drain your camera batteries and can be faster.
    FWIW... download from the camera when batteries
    can be low after a long photo shoot could result
    corrupted photos.

    Yesterday, I downloaded Windows 8, and although using it was confusing I got the hang of it. Today, I used the computer again and everything was fine but then I stopped him and a few hours later, when I turned it on a blue screen appeared and he says:

    Recovery

    The Boot Configuration data file is missing some information required.
    Leader: \Boot\0xc000000d
    OT: After victory. Download 8 it won't launch
    I have no idea what is happening or how to fix it. Any help to help me understand and solve this problem would be appreciated.

    Met the same question from one day to the other - re install Win 8< week="" old="" decided="" to="" misbehave="" on="" a="" reboot.="" nothing="" untoward="">

    In any case discovered that the automatic startup repair is less useless for me. He could not fix anything whatsoever after the diagnosis and just gave up.

    However, resort to repair (start your windows installation CD) command line prompt, I managed to solve it with the command of the ffg on the command line.

    Bootrec /rebuildbcd

    More info about bootrec available using your favorite search engine.

    for example, this site was useful for me

    http://superuser.com/questions/451277/missing-boot-files-in-Windows-8

    For users in previous posts with problems and have only a version downloaded to Win 8 - well I'd say that you yourself create a DVD of the version uploaded to win 8 - the installation program ask you if you want to create media - that will create a 4.x GB. ISO file that you can burn to DVD. There is enough information on how to do this just search online.

    With regard to creating a way to initiate Win8 installer from USB Eh well I heard the ffg tool works with Win 8 too but cannot vouch for her since have never tried so its at your own risk.

  • Remote Desktop for Mac will not use the printer driver

    On an iMac with Lion 10.7.3, I try to get an Epson ReadyPrint T20 - TM to use the Epson driver when it is connected to our server Windows 2008 R2 with DRC 2.1.1 but it keeps using a HP Color Laser Jet 2800 Series PS we have not the HP printer and I need some features in the Epson driver.

    I installed the printer on the server and removed several times without alteration. When 'Use a printer connected to the Mac' is selected in the preferences of the DRC the printer is a printer that is redirected, but the use of the driver of HP. Printing from Mac works with all the features.
    On the server, we have 3 installed roles, file, desktop Services to remote and Web server (IIS) Services
    We have tried to map the printer with an EPSONRedirect.INF file that contains the following:
    ; EPSONRedirect.INF
    ; Printer mapping file for drivers side client-side Server
    [Printers]
    "EPSON TM - T20" = "EPSON TM - T20 ReceiptJ4"

  • Size of the application icon... Home screen will not use the right one. Help!

    I thought I could include different sizes of icons (ie. 48 x 48, 32 x 32, etc.) and the camera choose the size of the device or the theme-appropriate application icons. Of course, this isn't the case. So, how do you get the device to use the right size for the theme icon?

    For example, I have a Verizon 8330 (curve) and the theme of Verizon uses sizes 48 x 48 icons. If I use a size of 48 x 48 icon to my app, it looks great. However, if I change the theme of one of the standard BB Dimension themes, it will be small scale my icon 48 x 48, 32 x 32, which seems quite bad. Why does not he chooses the icon size 32 x 32 I understand? How can I provide both sizes and have it use the correct size according to the theme? It looks even worse when I use 32 x 32 and he then it extends to 48 x 48. Help!

    You'll have to do it by programming it your application startup.  You can use the following code to get the width and height of the icon:

    int height = net.rim.blackberry.api.homescreen.HomeScreen.getPreferredIconHeight();
    int width = net.rim.blackberry.api.homescreen.HomeScreen.getPreferredIconWidth();
    

    Then set the using the appropriate icon:

    net.rim.blackberry.api.homescreen.HomeScreen.updateIcon( icon );
