Converting Windows Icons, how?
Hey there...
Does anyone know how to change windows icons to os x? I use a white PSP on my Mac and have finally managed to find a white psp icon to match the only thing is that it's in png format and I can't do the usual copy and paste from Get Info. Does anyone know how to convert these icons? Or does anyone know where I can get a white psp icon for the Mac? Thanks!
Hi, Tymon.
Graphic Converter can convert Windows ICO/ICN formats and PNG files to Apple Apple icon formats. Use the File > Convert & Modify option, select Convert in the Function pop-up menu, navigate to and select the files you want to convert in the left pane, select where they're to be saved in the right pane, select the desired Apple icon format in the Dest. Format pop-up menu, and you should be good-to-go.
Good luck!

''Problem: too much blank space at the top of browser window.''
• The Convert to PDF icon takes up 1 entire row (predominately blank) of horizontal space
• Edit in Contribute, Post to Blog are listed on a separate row, taking up 1 additional row (predominately blank) of horizontal space
They both use small icons and titles, .5" wide each, are flushed to the left, yet take up 2 rows of blank space at the top of my browser window. How do I move these items to display on 1 row?Start Firefox in Safe Mode (https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode) and choose the 'Reset toolbars and controls option'. This will get you back to the stock icon set which you can then customize to your liking

How to disable the Super User menu - (Right click windows icon menu) - Server 2012 R2 - RDS
Greetings all,
Can anyone please advise how to remove the Administrator / Super User menu that appears when you right click the Windows Icon (old start button) in Server 2012 R2 - for RDS users. I have searched and been able to disable access to each of these menu items (Control
Panel, Event Viewer, Run, etc). But I am searching for a way to completely remove the menu. This menu also appears when you use Win-X shortcut.
Hope someone can help.
TerryHi Terry,
You can try following points, might helpful in your case. Go to
C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows
there you will see file called WinX
Right click this file and copy then go to
C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows
then paste the file into the folder.
NOTE: replace YOUR_USERNAME with your actual username.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

There are a number of third party solutions for this. I just use Bridge, so can't recommend one in particular.

iPad running iOS 5 has on the menu bar only have 4 icons, being: back, forward, bookmarks, and the "add to bookmarks", but is missing an icon after the "add to bookmarks" arrow, that is a "show all open browser windows" icon. How do I get it in my safari?
What you are seeing is how Safari works now in iOS 5. There is no way to get that icon in Safari now. There other much better browsers available in the App Store. Look at iCab Mobile, Mercury, Atomic, ....
I have been running iOS 5x for so long now, that I don't even remember if that icon did appear in earlier iOS versions -
How to export a symbol as a windows icon?
Is there an easy way to export a LabVIEW symbol as an icon? When putting a VI on the desktop, it would be nice if it had the same symbol as within LabVIEW. Instead, all VIs appear on the desktop with a standard icon. In the past, I copied the symbols to a painting programm, saved it, and converted it by means of shareware programs to a windows icon. My hope is that new LabVIEW versions provide this functionality. Unfortunately, I could not yet find this feature.
Mat,
Similar to a TXT or DOC file, the icon associated with a VI file is linked at the Windows system level. Therefore, there may be some hack that allows you to change the icon for all VIs but not each VI individually.
A colleague suggested a method that might work for you. You can save the VIs in a directory somewhere else and make a shortcut to them on the Desktop. You can then change the icon of these shortcuts.
I hope that works.
Thanks,

SInce i installed Lion, my desktop icons are lining up like regimented Windows icons!
how do i get them to stay where i put them, like they used to do?
thanks!
ellenIn that case, there may be a problem with your Finder preferences or window settings.
Try removing these files, then restarting:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
~/Desktop/.DS_Store
Let me know if you're not sure how to do that. -

How to convert window to tabbed page?
In CS4, when I drag a photo from windows explorer into photoshop, it becomes a tabbed page.
If instead I open the same photo via file menu, it becomes a window that when maximized, covers the menu bar, making the menu hard to access.
I can convert a tabbed page into a window by right clicking on the tab and select "move to new window".
How do I change a window into a tabbed page? This is more useful to me since the tabbed page does not cover the menu.
Could someone also explain why maximing a window covers the menu bar?I tried many times but could not get it to work. Nothing is highlighted when I drag the window below the options bar.
Instead I found this solution:
using menu windows->arrange->consolidate all to tabs
Also, instead of trying to maximize window, using menu windows->arrange->tile would maximize the window without covering the menu bar -

h264.mp4 is actually the most common 'standard' (4000 video 'standards' aaaaand counting)
mp4 is indeed universal (Mac, Windows, Linux), and since YouTube, the h264 codec has a good installed base .....
you can bump into probs only when it comes to sheer amount of data:
for instance cheap 'digital frames' are sortof over-whelmed, if you try to playback 720/30p in high quality.
I'm not familiar with 21st cent devices as SmartBoards ... again, it could happen, you have to reduce resolution/fps/bit-rate to avoid clutter&stutter in the video.
I'm using such encoded files successfully on Playstation3, WD HD TV or flatscreenTVs with integrated usb-connection (via stick), etc
imho, it should work welll .............. < fingers-crossed > -

Howdy,
Much like in Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, Windows 10 provides you with experience that allows you to convert your Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview to Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview without having to reinstall Windows.
Why would I need converting my Windows SKU (edition)
Currently, you may need this to fix issues with Windows not synchronizing browser favorites between different editions. For example, if you're using Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview in a test environment at work and Windows 10 Pro Technical
Preview at home, you won't see favorites added on Enterprise edition at home and vice versa. All the links added on Pro edition while browsing web at home won't appear on your work PC.
To convert Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview to Windows 10
Enterprise Technical Preview:
1. Press WindowsKey+PauseBreak and select Add Windows Features at the bottom left corner of System window.
2. In the Add features to <OSName> window click to add Product key and type in the
public product key for Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview available here.
Voila! Your Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview is now converted to Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview.
To convert Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview to Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview:
Following the above procedure does NOT reveal Add features to Windows 10 link button in System window.
We could try doing this through DISM tool.
1. Press WindowsKey+X and select Windows PowerShell (Admin) or Command Prompt (Admin).
2. At the command prompt type dism /online /Get-CurrentEdition to obtain information about the current edition of Windows:
PS C:\Windows\system32> dism /online /Get-CurrentEdition
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.9926.0
Image Version: 10.0.9926.0
Current edition is:
Current Edition : Enterprise
The operation completed successfully.
PS C:\Windows\system32>
3. Check which versions you may switch to:
PS C:\Windows\system32> dism /online /Get-TargetEditions
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.9926.0
Image Version: 10.0.9926.0
Editions that can be upgraded to:
(The current edition cannot be upgraded to any target editions.)
The operation completed successfully.
Looks like Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview cannot be downgraded.
To downgrade edition from Enterprise to Pro, you can trick Windows setup into thinking it is running on Pro by going to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion and changing the following keys:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
"EditionID"="Enterprise"
"ProductName"="Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview"
I believe for Pro edition this must be
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
"EditionID"="Professional"
"ProductName"="Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview"
After that you may run in-place upgrade using Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview Setup disc.
Note, if you can't find the Add features to option in Control panel, press Windows Key + R and type control /name Microsoft.WindowsAnytimeUpgrade.
If you want to, you could change Windows edition via DISM servicing tool by running:
DISM /online /Set-Edition:Enterprise /ProductKey:XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /AcceptEula
In case you can't access official page for
Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview download, or the page that contains
product key for Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview, you can always obtain the product key by looking for
F:\sources\pid.txt on the Windows Setup disc.
