Hp Mini wrong windows.

Hey, does anyone know how to reformat an hp mini 1000 and install an older version of windows?
Mine crashed a while back and wouldn't startup past the black boot screen so I reinstalled windows today, but I put 7 on when I should have put xp. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really love this little mini.

Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - not working for one user - working for another

Hi,
I recently have an issue with Synaptics touchpad on HP Mini 110 Windows 7 32 Bit - NOT working for one user - working for another.
Windows 7 updates recently installed ???
By checking the device properties on the user that works - "Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad 13/10/2011 Version 15.3.29.0"
When the other user logs on, the touchpad works for a few seconds, then a displays a black square with a red diagonal line through it, then the touchpad won't respond. Trying to use the keypad to navigate to system diagnosics or anything to find further info is useless....

Hey eagle_no11,
Thank you for joining the HP Support Community!
I will do my best in assisting to hopefully get the TouchPad to work on the second user profile.
What I would like to start off with, is to restore the original Synaptics drivers onto the profile that is not working correctly. I have included the document Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 7).
Once you have installed the original drivers, you will need to complete all updates from both HP, as well as Windows. For these updates, if you open the HP Support Assistant, and select Maintain, you should see an option for updating.
Please let me know how these steps do work out for you.
Have a great day!

Command key activates wrong window in Mountain Lion

I've got some strange bug on my computer that has stumped every genius in the three Apple Stores I've been to--they even took it to the back to ask all the Genius' in the store, so it seems to be a nasty bug. so I figured maybe you all could help me out.
The issue is this: After I upgraded to Mountain Lion (from Snow Leopard) when I use my "command" key, it randomly activates a window other than the one in focus (on top) of the other windows. So, for example, if I'm in Safari and try to copy something (Cmd+C) but I also have Word open, it will switch to Word and copy whatever is in Word. It does this with all programs (even with Finder!), no matter what the Command function I'm trying to use. If I close the program, the strange behavior will stop for a short time and then come back with another program. When Cmd activates Finder, I have to relaunch Finder and that temporarily alleviates the problem. It does this odd behavior with an external keyboard (and the on-screen keyboard), meaning that it's a software, not hardware error.
I have taken the following actions to fix the problem:
- Reset PRAM (no change to problem)
- Using Disk Utility to repair permissions and verify disk (no change to problem)
- Created a new user on the computer (problem re-appeared after importing my backup files using MigrationAssistant)
- Created a new user on the computer and imported files without importing "Settings" but problem reappeared
- Reinstalled Mountain Lion (problem appeared after importing my backup files using MigrationAssistant)
The last Genius thought the error was due to an application corrupting some system-wide file in Mountain Lion, so we wiped my hard drive, reinstalled files, and imported my documents but not my apps. I manually installed one app at a time and had no issues for 3 months or so.
The problem "randomly" came back last week. Looking at apps that were installed recently, it shows:
- Flux (update - but Flux was on my computer for 3 months with no issues)
- Quicksand (update - but Quicksand was NOT on my computer last year when the problem started)
- VLC Media Player (this WAS on my computer last year but was NOT on my computer in the 3 months with no issue).
Thus, it seems that the culprit app was VLC. I've deleted it (using AppTrap to clear system files), but the problem still exists.
So, three questions:
1) Does anyone have any idea why this is happening, how to prevent it, or whether it might start again even if I wipe and reinstall everything?
2) I'd like to fix the problem without wiping my computer and doing a clean install of everything. Any ideas of how I could avoid doing that?
3) If I have to sacrifice VLC to solve the problem, fine, but I'd prefer not to. Any ideas as to how I could use it still?
TLDR: Command key activates wrong window in Mountain Lion; confirmed software issue; reinstall worked fine until installed VLC Media Player and problem returned; how do I fix it?

SQL query return wrong Windows version

when excuting 'select @@VERSION' returns wrong Windows version. Why?

when excuting 'select @@VERSION' returns wrong Windows version. Why?
SELECT @@VERSION will return SQLServer version and not windows version
Even in case of sql, if you're seeing a different version from what your management studio suggests, then it may be that you're SSMS (client tool) is of another later version whereas the server instance which you're actually connecting to may
be of different (earlier) version.

How to copy music on ipad mini in windows format to a mac?

Is is possible to copy music from my ipod mini in windows format to my new mac?

Hello wolge1,
And welcome to  Discussions!
So you want to know if you can copy the music from your Windows formatted iPod to your new Mac correct? If so, then the answer is yes. See this article about how to go about this using the manual method.

Or see this older thread by another forum member Zevoneer on third party applications that can assist you as well.

Exposé picks the wrong window

Hi, I recently switched from a 20" G5 iMac (10.4) to a new 24" (Intel, 10.5). I was a big fan of Exposé, and I like to use the Mighty Mouse scroll wheel button to "show all" windows. I am finding that since the switch (not sure if it's the new machine, or the new system software - presumably the latter), that Exposé misbehaves. The scroll wheel button does indeed show all, but then when I select the window I want, about half the time, the wrong window is brought to the front. For example, I might show all, then mouse over the iTunes window, which is properly identified as such (by the little darkened box that says 'iTunes'), but then when I let go of the mouse button, some random window comes up. Is anyone else noticing this problem? Am I doing something wrong? Is it just a bug, that I can hope gets fixed in the next update? Any thoughts anyone has would be welcome.

I should mention that the problem only occurs when the mouse button is used to show all. Using a hot corner, Exposé works every time. I suppose in the grand scheme of things, this isn't a massive problem - just a nuissance, since I've grown so accustomed to navigating my open windows in this way.

When I plug my iPad mini to windows USB I see "not charging" on my ipad

When I plug my iPad mini to windows USB I see "not charging" on my ipad

When you plug your iPad into a Windows PC, it doesn't charge for some reason. The battery does not get drained or used up because i once left it running (not locked) overnight and it still had 57% in the morning. When i got my new MacBook, it stopped saying "not charging" and it began to charge and use up the computer's battery.
This is because most of the laptops (even on older macs) dont provide enough power for the iPad to charge with the screen on. Sometimes it can charge when the iPad is locked, but it is very slow. My new mac has USB 3.0, so maybe that works, but my Windows has 2.0, so i guess 2 and below can charge and iPad.

Ipod mini versus windows vista

i just got a used ipod mini (4g version). i used the installer disc that came with it, udated itunes to 9.1, plugged my ipod in and nothing. the ipod comes up charging and on the main menu, but other than that, goose egg. is vista or windows media player messing with something or did i do something wrong?

Hello pc1971,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Have you tried some of the basics such as plugging it into different USB ports on your computer or try a different USB Connector Cable?
Maybe try resetting the device with it connected to your system. To do this, toggle the hold switch on and off, and then press and hold the Menu and Select (Center) buttons together for a few seconds until the Apple logo appears.
Otherwise, I would continue working through the recommend troubleshooting steps provided in this Apple support document.

How do I sync my ipad mini with windows 7

I have a iPad mini that I got today and I need help syncing it with my windows 7 PC when I plug it in iTunes freezes

Your Windows PC needs the current iTunes. Do you have it (version 11.0.4)?
If not, get it at http://www.apple.com/itunes

How do I stop Firefox from claiming to have sessionrestore errors or opening the wrong session items and/or remember the wrong window size and/or position.

Since automatically updating to version 25 Firefox is randomly opening recent tabs and windows from the browsing history, and/or randomly positioning the browser window from history.
Currently using Firefox 25.0.1 on Windows Vista and Windows 7. Problems started immediately after automatic updates to 25.0.0. Problems are most noticeable on the Vista box because it has so much screen geography (the Windows 7 box is a laptop).
Problems include:
Firefox may open the correct tabs into a properly sized and positioned window, without problem. (Not a problem, included for completeness since it does, occasionally, work without error).
Firefox open a single empty tab (about:blank, my Home page). (Listed as a problem because Firefox simply forgot the tab which was open.)
Firefox may claim it cannot open the correct tabs and pop up about:sessionrestore. Proceeding will open all tabs (usually only one or two for me). This gives the impression Firefox did not actually have a problem. But, then, often, the tab Firefox is having problems restoring is about:blank so I should hope there was no problem!
Firefox may open randomly selected recent browsing items, without other problems. This gives the impression that Firefox does not properly record recent history for about:sessionrestore. Checking History appears correct; Firefox simply reached back hours, or days, or even weeks, and restored a random session from long ago.
Any of the above may occur, but the window position and/or size will be randomly selected from another recent history item. This is most noticeable when the position is on the wrong monitor and can be annoying since Firefox simply "disappears" if (as it often is for me) that other monitor is disconnected or powered off.

If you use cleanup software like CCleaner then check the settings for the Firefox application.<br />
Also make sure that your anti-virus software doesn't mess with files in the Firefox profile folder.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

Trackpad three-finger swipe goes to wrong window

I'm using a Magic Trackpad with a MacBook Pro running the current Mac OS 10.8.4. But I've had this problem for at least a year, so I'm guessing it also affects the last couple OS versions at least.
I have the trackpad configured to trigger Back and Forward commands with a three-finger left/right gesture (System Preferences > Trackpad > More Gestures > Swipe Between Pages > Swipe With Three Fingers). I use these gestures to move to the previous or next web page in Safari and to move to the previous or next document in BBEdit and Xcode. Similarly, I also use a three-finger up/down gesture to switch between the header and implementation files in Xcode.
This all works great for a couple weeks, then suddenly something breaks and this happens: if I change the active window by any method (e.g., clicking the window, pressing Command-Tab, clicking the Dock icon), my three-finger gestures will still be targeted to the old window, as if it is still active. If I scroll in the new window with a two-fingered gesture, that will fully activate it and then the three-fingered gestures will be correctly targeted again. I've tried changing the trackpad settings and changing them back, quitting individual apps and sleeping/waking the computer. The only solution I've found to make the gestures work properly at that point is to restart the computer, which is pretty time-consuming given the number of things I'm usually working on at once.
Has anyone else seen this problem, and more importantly does anyone know a solution that doesn't involve restarting? Maybe restarting an individual process from the Activity Monitor?

JimG16,
I know it sounds silly but is the option for three finger swipe still checked.
System Preferences > Trackpad > More Gestures ( Tab ) > Swipe between full-screen apps.
Also on mine if I don't have multiple desktops created, Dashboard turned on, or on App in full screen mode it won't switch between them.
Summon Mission Control ( F3 on my keyboard ) > Along the top do you see Multiple Desktops or Apps in full screen.
Hope that helps,
Weston

Can I use my apple wireless mouse and keyboard with my Mac Mini and Windows PC?

Hello, I recently dug up a windows PC computer for side projects, and I was able to get by using my wireless apple keyboard and mouse for my Mac mini, and then using a usb mouse for my PC, I want to eliminate the usb keyboard and mouse and just use the bluetooth keyboard. Both computers are usually on all the time, and the windows PC uses a bluetooth adapter. I can get my keyboard and mouse to work on both, but I have to sync them to whatever system I would like everytime I want to use it. Is there any solution that when I choose the Mac Mini my keyboard and mouse will work for the Mac mini, and when I choose my windows pc, the keyboard will only be used on windows without having to resync?

To my knowledge, no.
