  • TS1381 the enter key on my numeric keypad brings up the Start menu in Windows 7

    The enter key on my wired iMAC numeric keypad is not working correctly - it brings up the Start menu in Windows 7.  I am running Windows 7 through Parallels.  Any ideas how to switch it back?

    I figured this out on my own.  I had clicked a key in DoubleClick that was causing this.  I unchecked it and now my enter key works normally.

  • Cant view photos. Says they are corupt or too large

    HI.
    I only recently purchased this laptop 1 year ago and I recently got married and have been given a USB with all of my phots on it. I cannot view them on my laptop. it comes up with photos are corrupt or damaged or too large. I can view them on my other computer I have at home with no problems and I can have the photos running in my background on my laptop but cant view them seperatly.
    Why????
    Thanks

    It depends on the OS installed and the little extra programs needed for photo viewing.  What version Windows or other OS?

  • Firefox will not run - double click on icon, select icon and run/open, opening via start menu are all dead

    Problem started yesterday (9/28). While in Firefox, bookmarks stopped working. Closed out FF and tried to reopen the program, and nothing causes FF to launch. Tried double clicking on the desktop icon, single click on the bottom status bar (on XP), right click on icon to open or run, trying via Start -> All Programs -> Mozilla and neither regular or safe mode would launch. Only thing that seems to fix the problem is a full restart of the computer. Tried downloading the newest version via Chrome. When I clicked to run the install, kept getting a message to close all FF windows, even though there were no FF windows open.

    Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".<br />
    Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
    * Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
    * "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected
    Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Is the Nightly 12.0a1 64 bit icon in the start menu for Windows 7 supposed to have a jump list for frequent pages visited and tasks (open new tab, open new window, enter private browsing)?

    Both my standard Firefox icon and Waterfox icon have jump lists in the start menu and taskbar. Even the pinned Nightly icon in the taskbar shows this, but it doesn't show in the start menu. Just odd to see that the icon in the start menu doesn't offer this feature considering it does in the taskbar. I've reinstalled several times but it doesn't seem to change anything.

    There are hidden settings that control the display of jump lists, check these to make sure that they have been enabled.
    Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter, accept the warning message, and a list of preferences will be displayed.
    In the search box at the top type '''taskbar.lists''', it will then display a small number of preferences. Check the values of the following preferences (you can double-click on them to change the value)
    * '''browser.taskbar.lists.enabled''' - should be set to true to enable jump lists
    * '''browser.taskbar.lists.frequent.enabled''' - set to true to have the frequent sites displayed
    * '''browser.taskbar.lists.tasks.enabled''' - set to true to have the tasks displayed
    * '''browser.taskbar.lists.recent.enabled''' - set to true to have the recent sites displayed
    By default the first 3 settings are true, the last is false.

  • I can't use the search function in both the Start Menu and Windows Explorer.

    This problem occurred yesterday when I uninstalled a program on my computer. Once the program was uninstalled, everything was fine until I tried to search for a file in my start menu search bar. When I attempt to search for something, nothing comes up. Not
    even a single document or piece of text. Nothing. 
    In other posts I've seen addressing the same issue that I'm having, people try to search something and a selection of files come up, like "Programs", "Documents", etc., except for me, it's all blank.
    In other threads people have suggested to delete certain subdirectories in regedit, but when I go into regedit, and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer
    folder, there is no FolderTypes folder for me to delete. It's simply not there.
    I've pretty much tried every possible resolution under the sun, apart from completely re-installing Windows 7. Please help me fix this issue, because at this point I'm
    lost.

    Yes, sometimes, we can solve this issue by editing the registry entry you mentioned above, I have a suggestion, do you have a similar system or PC which is working fine? You can export this registry entry from that PC (which i sworking fine), then
    import it to your problematic PC, please remember that incorrect change in registry will cause serious damage, so backup the registry first before editing.
    After finishing editing the registry, restart PC. If doesn't work, open control panel\Indexing Options\Advanced, rebuild the index.

  • How to pin a tile for both modern UI IE and standard desktop IE to start menu in Windows 8.1?

    Hi,
    When we deploy new applications to users we use the new GPO for Win 8.1 called "Pin Apps to Start". There we specify the path to the application and it automatically pins to users start menu on log on.
    But we want to have both the modern UI IE and the standard desktop IE on start menu also, the modern UI IE is already on the start menu by default, but when we add the IE shortcut to the GPO setting it doesn't appear on users start menu. tried the following
    path: c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe
    anyone know how to do this in Windows 8.1?
    In Windows 8 it works, but since Microsoft blocked this feature to keep the start menu "clean", we need to use the Pin Apps to Start setting in a GPO.
    Kind regards, Magnus Lislevatn

    Hi,
    I want to know the detail GPO settings for the Internet Explorer, both Windows store and the desktop Internet Explorer, besides, does it work for Windows 7 system?
    The Windows store Internet Explorer is an app, it is not located in C:\Program Files, the desktop Internet Explorer is located at C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer.
    that’s why it doesn't appear on users start menu  when you add the IE shortcut to the GPO setting and tried the following path: c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe
    The suggestion I provided for now is to check whether it just happened to one Windows 8.1 machine, if this happens to any other system, the group policy is responsible for this, posting the group policy setting will help analyze this.

  • E72 - Cant view photos on memory card

    Hey,
    Any photos or backgrounds I put on my memory card are not viewable in the image gallery and If I move a image from the phone memory to my memory card in the image gallery It just disappears. I tested the memory card in another phone and it works fine. What am I doing wrong?

    I face a similar problem. Heres the history.
    There was a virus on my cell phone, because of which a folder by the name 'RECYCLER' appeared on my phone. I did a hard reset (Format). Since then, I believe the virus is gone (since I cant see the Recycler folder any more), but my images cant be viewed in the Gallery. If I use my phone in mass storage mode, I can see the pictures that I had taken. But they dont appear in my Gallery. Any ideas how to solve this problem.
    Also, if I take my phone to a Nokia Service Center, can they format and reinstall the entire software, so that the phone is just like it was on the day I purchased it?

  • Cant view photos except one at a time??, and other iphoto weirdness, help!

    My iphoto is crazy, it does weird stuff all the time. A few months ago it started randomly eating pictures and a grey block would show up where they used to be. Just recently when I open an event i I can only look at the pics one at a time, not like smaller pictures in rows, where you can select them and do stuff with them. I don't know why it is different!!! I would think I could just change something under view and fix it, but nothing seems to help. Please someone help!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    Just recently when I open an event i I can only look at the pics one at a time, not like smaller pictures in rows,
    There's a slider lower right of the iPhoto Window - drag it left.
    A few months ago it started randomly eating pictures and a grey block would show up where they used to be.
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.
