FF4@WinXP vs. Personas?
If you use FF4 (WinXP) with personas, mouseover effect looks bad, "Win2000-like":

I use extension Menu Icons Plus (v1.9 - in later this part is missing), to make this hover effect looks better:

Can this be fixed somehow? Is this bug on FF4/WinXP, since it looks nice in Win7?
Maybe i wasn t clear enough: I play FPS games ,but i dont use CMSS neither in XP or 7. The motivation is simple ,when i was using Audigy 2 leaving CMSS on made the positional sound to suck hard.So i off it with X-Fi too. I want plain stereo when using headphones(rarelly, it s bad for ears) or 2 speakers. If you re using multichannel headphones thats something else. 1.) I only use CMSS when i need to use my Logitech X 530 full 5.1 with mp 3 to upmix. 2.) EAX is emulated by Alchemy under W7 so you wont get correct postional with or without CMSS on. 3.) For listening music under XP or 7 you should use Foobar 2000 and it s ASIO plug in http://www.foobar2000.org/ . The sound in W7 is better in my opinion as perception overall ,less distorsions.You should also take a look at the Audio properties in W7 and try another sampling rate. 4.)You can use a dual boot XP and 7 anytime.

Why are personas ruined in FF4?
Why is there no provision to quickly and easily change the browser header/toolbar space in FF4 to preserve the appearance of existing personas that were designed based on the look of FF3? As a result, many, if not most, of the existing personas have been ruined by the default FF4 interface. I know how to add and rearrange toolbars, but it is a cumbersome procedure and there is no toggle to easily switch from one configuration to another.
Further, tabs on top setting makes things even worse and there is no way to add custom space toolbars between the menu and the tabs, in order to display existing persona designs that were based on FF3. Also, if you turn off menus in WinXP, FF4 hides the top of your persona design.

Firefox 4 will no longer allow me to use a theme (other than the default) with a Persona. When I "try on" a skin, FF4 allows me to ''preview'' the theme with the persona but will not allow me to ''apply'' the persona without '''automatically''' switching my chosen theme (disorganizing my menu's, bookmarks, and tool-bars) back to the default. Firefox 4 also begins to load an all-default setting browser when it is first opened slowing my browsing start up. All issues were not experienced before the Mozilla Firefox 4.0 upgrade.

Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

Running ITunes 10.6, on a Win7 Home Premium SP1. Just loaded about thirty of my favorite CD's on my user account.
I would like to be able to make all of them available to my other family members in their accounts on my machine, without needing to reload them all and without having to store their disk images multiple times. Can this be done, and if so, how?
And can I copy the contents of a folder across to my wife's WinXP SP3 machine, and have them made available to each of us in our login accts on that machine?
(There are three of us, plus an admin and a backup admin account, on each.)
I will be really grateful if someone can help me do this for my family members, as we have shared the music on these CD's over the years, and I would like to make them available on the desktop for each of us.
Also, I'd like to be able to load them, or a subset of them, to my wife and son's IPods. Any Tips, Traps or Tweaks for that process, as well?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
Not sure about the OS level for the IPods. I am doing this for my wife and son, using an account here created for my son, which he shares with me for support purposes. But I do know they both have IPods, and our PC's and their OS's were described above.You can move the iTunes folder to a separate drive on your pc an then configure each account to use this drive / folder as iTunes library ... The problem is, that iTunes by default stores everything in your personal music folder which is separate for each user account in windows (and by default is on "C" drive).
I create a separate partition on every pc/laptop (and map a drive name) where I store music, videos and other mass data. This will also keep the "C" drive small, which is backed up from time to time and so my backup is also small. -
Error message from originating program when clicking on weblink to open FF4
FF4 is now my default browser on my WinXP netbook. (Instead of FF3.6.)
If FF is not open and I click on a weblink in Outlook or other programs, FF4 opens the webpage but I also get an error message in the originating program saying the system cannot find the file. If FF4 is already open I do not get the error message. FF3.6 did not generate this error message even though it took significantly longer to open than FF4.Hi Srikar,
It depends.
Generally though you display a message in SAPGUI it does not display automatically in BSP.
Some times you have to manually write some code to populate and display a message in BSP.
First you need to find the BSP page and write some code to display error messages in the same..

WinXP to Mac - The Specified Network Name is No Longer Available
Hello,
I cannot figure out, for the life of me, why our WinXP machine won't connect to our Mac.
Mac: Powerbook G4 running OS X 10.4.7, WIndows File Sharing is active and an account is selected which will use Windows sharing.
PC: Windows XP Home Edition, SP2. A file share is active.
We're both using wireless connections via a D-Link DI-624 router. Both the Mac and PC are on the same workgroup and have different machine names. Both are on the same subnet.
The Mac can connect to Windows XP share directories and printers without a problem. The Windows XP machine can browse to the Mac's web page when the Personal Web Sharing on the Mac is active. The XP machine can even ping the Mac's address with no packet losses.
However, when the XP machine tries to connect to the Mac (via Map Network Drive or from the command line) using \\machine\share, we get the following error: "The Specified Network Name is No Longer Available". The Mac's machine name shows up when we do a search for computers, but gives us that same error when we double click on it. Furthermore, the printer name does not show up in the printer list, although the Mac's machine name does.
Any ideas? Any more information needed?
Thanks a lot. This problem is driving me insane. :/
ScottI finally figured it out! It had to do with the smb.conf file and a missing file. Here's what happened (for people with future problems like this):
o Looked at the log.smbd file (in /var/log/samba) and saw errors about not being able to convert from CP0. Searched online and found (from http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2490054�) that I needed to change 'dos charset = 0' to 'CP850'...
o In Terminal, did a 'sudo pico /etc/smb.conf' and changed the line "dos charset = 0" to "dos charset = CP850"
o Still didn't work, and found from the log.smbd file that the convert msg was gone, but was replaced with a "Failed to open /private/var/db/samba/secrets.tdb" msg.
o I saw that the directory (at the ..../samba level) didn't exist, so, from Terminal, I used sudo to create the /private/var/db/samba directory (sudo mkdir /private/var/db/samba), and did a 'sudo touch secrets.tdb' to create the file, then 'sudo chown root:wheel secrets.tdb' to assign the correct user/group.
Used 'sharepoints' program to create shares and voila! It works great now!
To share my printer, I'm using bonjour, which is a free printer/etc. sharing program from Apple for those with OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and WinXP/2000/2003 machines (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/bonjour/). -
How do I get rid of the thin line that goes across the top Persona background image.
There is a 1-pixel wide light grey line across the top Persona background image between the navigation toolbar and the bookmarks toolbar from left to right. Nomatter whatever persona I have installed, it is there. Same thing also when i hover on any other Persona at Getpersonas.com. It is not there when using any other program and not when only showing the desktop. Only when using FF4. My PC is a HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop using Windows Vista. This is not a monitor issue nor a graphic card issue since it only shows in FF.
for me, it happens on a maximized window. when i do restore to window, the line disappears.

I installed FF4 on both my laptop and PC, but I kept getting kicked offline, especially from Facebook. I then uninstalled FF4 and went back to FF3.5.5 (on the PC) and FF 3.6 on the laptop. This solved my connectivity issues, but add-ons are now acting up. No add-ons at all show up on the PC, and only Personas show on the laptop. When I try to install Forecast Fox and Colorful Tabs, I get the "install now" message and the message to restart FF, which I do. When it repaints, the add-ons are just not there. I expect it's something I'm doing wrong, but I don't know what it is. Java is updated. Any pointers? TIA!
You're welcome

I HAVE FF 3.6.21 Is FF4 a completely new install or does it install over the existing installation. Does it import settings, bookmarks, stored passwords, etc or do I have to add all that. Lastly, if I don't like FF4 can I go back to FF3 easily
Firefox 4 is no longer available. If upgrading, the only version that you can/should go to is Firefox 6.0.1, the current version. Firefox 7.0 is scheduled to be released on 09-27-2011 ('''''scheduled date is subject to change'''''). After Firefox 4.0, each upgrade replaces the prior version and the prior version is "abandoned" as far as security and stability updates are concerned.
Installing Firefox 6 will preserve your prior bookmarks, passwords, etc. You can/should make a backup of your personal information for safekeeping; what if you have a hard drive failure?
*See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information] '''''and''''' [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup Profile backup]
To test the new version 6.0.1 and leave your current Firefox 3.6.21 intact, you can install Firefox Portable. Firefox Portable is not produced by Mozilla (but is based on Firefox released versions) and is not supported on this site -- has its own support forum (see below). Firefox Portable installs in a separate folder on your hard drive and keeps its profile (personal information) separate so that it does not interfere with your current Firefox installation settings or personal information (bookmarks, passwords, etc.). You can also install Firefox Portable on a USB/thumb/pin/jump drive.

I have a aspireone netbook with FF2 on it. Recently I haven't been able to comment on things on sites so I downloaded FF4 but I don't know how to install it onto my netbook. HELP!!
Generally speaking, when you install a new release of Firefox, the installer detects your existing settings and uses those to set up the new version. When you upgrade infrequently (this would be about a year's worth of releases), there might occasionally be glitches in the process. Therefore, I suggest making a backup of your Firefox profile folder (your personal settings folder) first. This article has suggestions on backing up: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]].

Web Photo Gallery - Photoshop CS 8.0 (WinXP) - Please help!!!
Hello all,
I'm using Photoshop CS 8.0 on WinXP, but when I load images for Web Photo Gallery, it shows the error as: "This is an error disbling controls for missing tokens. Some files or folders for selected style might be missing."
I don't know what happens and please show me how to fix it. I need here very urgent for my works.
Thank you very much for your strong support and paying attention.
Thuydinh.Bob,
Thanks for answering. I need to create a Web Photo Gallery so I can upload thumbnails and full-size pictures to my website and have viewers be able to download the full-sized pictures. The Flash version does not permit downloading and requires that you use one of the provided templates. It appears that Photoshop Elements 8 is a downgrade from Photoshop Elements 2.0 in this respect. Is there any way to accomplish what I want to do with Photoshop Elements 8.0?
By the way, I really like your video tutorial on the Adobe website.

Can you change the appearence of individual icons (forward, etc) when using an existing persona?
I would like to change the appearance of the icons (forward, home, etc) when using a pre-existing persona. It appears that when using a persona the icons used are from the FF4 "default theme".
You can try to force Firefox to use a theme with the persona.

Being paranoid, I like to delete personal info (email addresses, etc.) from emails I'm forwarding. Ican do this right now in IE, but not Firefox.
I had been running FF4(?), but downgraded to FF3.5 because of some other issues, but I don't recall when the problem with email started (before or after downgrade).
IE9 allows me to delete this personal info from forwarded emails.Try an SMC reset. The article covers when this is required, but doing this will not affect anything.
