WIPE the laptop Toshiba which works on XP and reload with Vista
I want to completely, completely, completely erase EVERYTHING on our old Toshiba laptop - the content of the TOTAL hard drive, which is running on XP, then go back and load Vista. Could someone please tell me step by step how to do this? My drive is Windows Vista Home Premium Upgrade, 32-bit software. Will this work? XO
Hello
None
You can use not legally just the drive to upgrade to vista for this
you will need to reinstall XP and then upgrade to vista

Recovery of DNG issue: I have photos stored on an external hard drive which have previously been imported into Lightroom and converted to DNG. The laptop on which I was running Lightroom died and I had to replace the hard drive and rebuild the computer. In the process of my Lightroom program and catalog related to these images have been lost. When I re-associate these photos with my new installation of Lightroom and a new catalogue is there a way to retrieve the keywords or other changes or metadata catalogue Mountaga? Is any of this information embedded with the imge DNG file or was it only in the cataloght lost on my failing hard drive? I re-import just as if it were new images with no prior treatment of Lightroom?
By default, LR saves all changes in the catalog, and that applies to any type of file.
Optionally, you can save changes to the file as well, for raw files owners, this will create a xmp file - for DNG that changes are going to be cooked in the file, without additional xmp file.
But it does not default. Go to the catalog and parameters under the control of metadata automatically save changes to XMP.
Unless you do this, the changes are saved only in the catalog.
Hope this makes things clearer.

Have a Dell system, caught a virus and it has really messed up the PC. Recently, it got worse so I tried to reinstall the operating system with the Dell disks. It wouldn't work. So I bought for Windows 7 Professional, it will not be installed. My first question when installing a new operating system isn't automatically wipe the hard disk, create a new partition, and then install the operating system? Because this does the same as the Dell disks, is to take what is on the hard drive and put it in a folder called windows old, is not formatting the HD. When I boot the disk, it shows the installation of files then open windows and start the installation. Before he could finish I get an error missing or corrupted files. Tried several times now, windows will still not open. Any suggestions? Once while trying to install the pc crashed with a blue screen which is one of the reasons why I have reinstall the OS, he started to plant a few times. I don't remember all the details on my PC, but its 4 years, triple core coprocessors, ram 8 GB, 500 GB HD. At the same time just after all this started in Jan. I had also improved my 3 GB to 8 GB memory. I bought the Dell memory for my system. Since the crash, could there be a problem with these new memory chips? Last night I tried to disassemble each and reinstalling it, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. Before I tried to reinstall the operating system, the pc was see the concert 8.

Disconnect any other (additional) internal hard drives and external USB devices.
Look for any loose hard drive power or cables SATA, graphics card or other power cables.First run Memtest86 +:
It runs from a floppy disk or CD and should eliminate or confirm if one or more of your memory
sticks are bad or the values of the SPD in the BIOS are correct.
Let it run for as long as you can: 2,4,6,8 or several hours (at least 3 full passes), so no errors at that time then your ram is OK.

The standard weather app on my iphone 6 has stopped working. It shows just my wallpaper grayed out when I try to access. The app can be restarted or deleted and reloaded? If so, how?
No, the soft part of the operating system, so it would mean reload the iOS together. Have you tried a forced reboot yet?
Close all open applications by double-clicking the home button, and then drag to the top of the application window until it disappears from the screen.
Reset your device: press and hold the home button and the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black, and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

Outlook Express downloads e-mail messages for the 2nd time which have been read and deleted a few weeks ago. This happens periodically. Repeated messages are usually a week.
Maybe they are still on the server (server of your ISP). Make sure that you don't leave copies of messages downloaded from the ISP server that may cause duplicate messages to download.
It's the only thing I can think of.
If you are unsure how to check your messages via the Internet site of the ISP, then check with them about how you do that. TaurArian [MVP] 2005-2010 - Update Services

Yes. Help, please. I want to download Lightroom CC (preferably version 6). It does not appear in my list of creative cloud. I've been a CC member since it was started. (The photographic version which SHOULD include Photoshop AND Lightroom). I have the stand-alone versions of 6 Photoshop and Lightroom already installed 5 too!
Thank you very much. Disconnect and then again in the creative cloud seemed to do the trick. Thanks again for your time and trouble.
Sincerely,
George J. Dagis

-To switch off your watch: press and hold the button side until you see the cursor off the power; slide it to turn off;
-To switch on: press and hold the side button until you see the Apple logo.
If this does not resolve the problem, try next disconnect and rematching of your watch:
-L'app shows on your iPhone shows backups automatically, including a new when the unpairing via the application.
-Choose to restore the watch (backup restore) when provided the opportunity during the whole.
-Most of the data and settings will be restored, with a few exceptions (for example cards Pay Apple, access code).
