Annoyingly Helpful
I decided to try speech recognition on my laptop running Win7. Now, every time I open a pdf with Adobe reader, it wants to read the document to me. How can I turn this annoying feature off? It happens even when I don't have speech recog turned on.
Unfortunately, this overlay also shows in loupe view in LR3 (was only in Develop in LR2). A workaround is to switch to Survey View.
You might also want to raise a Feature Request for having the old behaviour back.

30 GB video sad face/"freezing" it's getting annoying ~HELP~!
Hi all,
I've been having this problem for about 2 weeks now. My iPod, which decided to kindly go corrupt the day after the warranty ran out, has been greeting me with the dreaded sad face. It only appears whenever it hasn't been turned on for a while ~ a day or so. If I turn it off, then on again in a few hours, it starts up just fine. Additionally, it occasionally freezes between songs, sometimes even in the middle of songs. The duration of the time it is frozen varies, but is usually between 10 - 30 sec. When I say freeze, I mean the music does not play. I can still adjust the volume, backlight, and alternate between date & time and 'now playing'. There is no clicking when frozen but there is when the song actually starts to play. I have noticed that it works much better whenever I let it flow between songs, rather than skip ahead. This occurs not very frequently at all and then sometimes all of the time. Very annoying when working out, doing homework, etc.
I tried the 5R's, ran diagonistic mode (I don't really have a clue what I'm looking at when I run it though), and (I think) un-synced all of my recently added songs... I can enter disk mode and it is still totally recognized by my computer. I feel like it is a corrupt file issue, not my hard drive. I have done nothing to damage my ipod, i baby it like it is my first born.
The only possible thing I can think of is that perhaps it got overheated? I take it to the beach a lot, but am extra careful to prevent water damage.
I had a Mini when they first came out and loved that thing to death, I don't want the same thing to happen to my Video after little over a year... I fear it will eventually kick the bucket. Help?
Thanks!
Ann
dell inspirion E1505 Windows XPi had this same problem with my 20 gb photo. since the warranty was already over, i just decided to take it apart and try to fix it myself. it turns out that the hard drive wire just needed to be moved around a little bit. but that was it. i haven't had the problem since. I'm not sure if it works the same with the videos but it should be similiar.

This paintComponent Method is Annoying - HELP
ok, I think I touched upon this problem sometime earlier, however I face a larger problem which I've been trying to solve by a different and simpler means but I get nothin.
I have a paintComponent method which DRAWS lines, strings and shapes that get PAINTED on to a JFrame all good and well.
Now, because of the amount of lines, strings and shapes I have on this "paintComponent", I want to put it in a class of its own. and THEN call it from the class it was in.
So I want to create a new class, just for the paintComponent.
Now, I've tried Numerous ways of trying to call it from another class but it just comes up as a blank screen. Oh and no I am not calling it directly too.
Does anyone know where I am going wrong?
help would be very much appreciated.ok LETS do this.
class beep
I call the paintComponent here to paint my JFrame BUT HOW!
class drawingBoard----------------------------------------------------
// create a rectangle called 'therectangle';
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)
super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
g2.draw(therectangle)
g2.drawString("", 100, 100)

Just updated to Yosemite and installed creative cloud. I had time stamp for a long time, but didn't use it and it was fine. Now it pops up and is annoying, so i removed the extension of timestamp and typeset yesterday and when i started my computer today it poped up again. Is that a daily occurrence or am i doing something wrong.
You must have selected a pre-defined extension set from the dropdown box under the search box by accident. So extension Manager enables/disables some extensions according to the rule of the pre-defined extension set automatically. With the pre-defined extension set active, you can't enable/disable any extension. The extension set feature is a convenient way for users to define multiple configurations so as to facilitate his/her work. For users who don't need extension set feature, we defined "Customized Set" and make it as the default set. So please select "Customized Set" in the dropdown box then you can enable whatever extensions you like.

iPad 2 keeps losing wifi connection about every 3 mins no matter where I am in the house - Help?

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

HP D017TU Laptop - Windows Help ans Support window started popping up and i can't get ride of it
Just purchased a brand new HP D017TU Laptop so nothing been done with it. I installed windows 7 on my HP D017TU laptop. it was working fine.
Then 2 days ago the Windows Help ans Support window started popping up and now I can't get ride of it.
I have tried the following things to get ride of the issue,
1) Format windows 7 os
2) Delete All partition and re-create
3) Re-install windows 7
Does anyone know how I can stop this happening.Hello SaravSB, welcome to teh HP Forums.
I see that you're having an issue where the Windows help and support is popping up. I will try to help you with this.
I've looked into this for you, it seems this was an issue from back when Windows 7 launched. Any "solutions" also seemed to vary user to user. You may want to try contacting Microsoft for support on this. I was able to find a couple of posts off the answers.microsoft.com forums.

Hello
I found a simple yet effective solution for this problem, my friend had the same issue so instinctively as a technician, I suspect this was a malware of somekind so I re-formatted and installed Win7 funny it's still there, so I did a Hard disk wipe using Dalvik's and re-partitioned and formatted again, to my surprise it still have the same problem.
So I ask Mr. Goo' old Mr. Google for answer, but I've found more complications, sorry for the story, so without further a do, the solution.
Boot to safe mode. (may also work in "normal mode")
Go to Task Manager>
Click the Services Tab>
Right click "HelpPane.exe" or Help and support service>
Select Properties>
Click the Security tab>
Click the Advanced tab (for permissions options)
Then select the "permissions entries" one at a time>
Click Change Permissions>
Then click Edit>
CLEAR ALL THE CHECK BOX FOR ALL ENTRIES
This should prevent access to the HelpPane.exe to all users/programs.
This resolved my friends Windows 7 "Help and Support thingy" issue, hope it does yours too.
Message me for questions and/or clarifications/corrections.
Thank you"

To fix the problem of the help pane appearing everytime you start windows do the following:
1. Run 'msconfig'
2. Go to the 'Startup' tab
3. One of your 'Startup items' is causing the pane to appear and you are going to have to find out which one it is! Untick ALL the items and reboot. The help pane will not appear harrah! Rather than adding the Startup Items back in one at a time and rebooting a hundred times, tick half the programs back in and reboot. You can find the culprit in about 5 reboots if you do it logically and add/remove half/quarter etc at a time.
4. Finally you will be left with all your Startup items ticked and the guilty program unticked (and that annoying help pane will no longer be appearing)
5. Now delete the guilty Startup Item from the registry (which will also remove it from the msconfig startup tab.
6. Open 'regedit'
7. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig\startupreg and delete the guilty program folder. BACKUP YOUR REGISTRY FIRST!
8. You're welcome."
Both of those, as well as other steps are located in this thread: Windows 7 "Help and Support" keeps popping up.
You could try those suggestions and even give that thread a read over, other wise the best option would be contacting Microsoft as stated above.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

I've tried Windows Media Player, Quicktime, VLC media player, and they are all updated. So is my computer software. I never had this problem with my previous iPhone 3Gs. This is very annoying, help!!

I have just now tried the Reinstall via iTunes, about 20 into the download, the iTunes logo on the phone disappeared, and the Apple Logo appeared again,,, I waited until the iTunes stated that the download had finished, and the install was in progress,,,
Nothing happened, still the Apple Logo was visual on the screen, iTunes never recognised the phone which it was on my iTunes account previously,,,
Still just a bunch of lines, maybe 5 or 6 so small writing,, I personally can not read what it is telling me, someone said it reads, incorrect shutdown,,,????????
Please advise,???
I am now at a loss,,, I really became excited when I saw the iTunes icon after putting the phone into restore,,,???

advertisement like
lidl.it
ivid.it
the problem is that they are opening several pages, like 30-40 one after another oneIn Firefox go to Tools/Addons/Extensions and install QuickJava 2.0.4. Then enable Bookmarks Toolbar, then right-click / customize, and add a few QuickJava's buttons, specifically the JS, F, J, SL, A, I.
Then, with just one click on F button you can disable/enable Flash. If you also click on JS, it cannot run nasty scripts. If you click on A, animated images are blocked, on SL Silverlight etc.
So just before you visit such websites, just click on JS and F. When you leave, click again. -

Itunes 11 welcome screen every time I open the program.
Yeah,
itunes 11 opens to welcome screen every time I open the programme.
OS Win8
very annoying
help?This is what worked for me!!!!!
Close iTunes.
With Windows Explorer go to View in the top menu and allow Hidden Files.
Navigate to:
C:\Users\[which ever user is you]\Appdata\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
Delete all files in this directory.
Start iTunes and see the Welcome Screen for hopefully the last time!
I am not an expert. This was a stab in the dark based on the Mac ByHosts solution and it just happened to work for me. Give it a try and let me know if it works.
Good Luck! -

ITunes keeps opening itself up
Hi, can somebody please tell me how to disable iTunes from continuously opening itself up for no paticular reason? I'm not sure why it started doing that but now every 2 minutes or so iTunes will just start itself up and it's getting incredibly annoying.
help please!!Go to System Preferences/Hardware CDs and DVDs and check if iTunes is set to open whenever you insert a disk of any kind (although music CDs is a natural choice, obviously)
Also, check your Login Items in System Preferences/Accounts for any iTunes related stuff
A likely cause can be found by making note of what you are doing when iTunes launches ... if you are working with media files of any kind -but potentially any kind of file - check to see what application is being opened by double-clicking that file (use Get Info).
