I cannot get my Palm Vx to work properly with Windows XP; especially the HotSync.

I have tried everything I can think of. I even went through the online chat assistance, and uninstalled Palm and then reinstalled a clean version. It worked a couple of times, but would not load any of my data, and now all my data is gone, my Palm still does not hotSync, and is essentially a very expensive paperweight. Why can't Microsoft and Palm get this right? I was so attached to my Palm for all these years that I bought them for family. Now, I have lost mine and all my data. Has anyone figured out how to get a Palm Vx to work with Windows XP and a new computer with USB ports?

When you say the data is gone, is it gone from Palm Desktop and the device?
Did you do a successful hotsync after the reinstall and before the data loss?

Why can't I get open type features to work properly with an open type font on InDesign CS5.5?

I installed a very complete set of styles of an opentype font with Font Book – Mac OS X 10.9.4 – but when I tried to format a sample text on InDesign CS5.5 I noticed that I could not use the opentype features on the Open Type menu as I usually do.
Could anyone help me, please?

It's ffScala Sans, but has separate files for small caps, figures, etc.
I was trying to use small caps, lining figures and superscripts when I
noticed none of the OT features are available.

Has anyone gotten DLNA to work properly with Windows 7 x64 ?

Has anyone gotten DLNA to work properly on Windows 7 64 bit and Windows Media Player 12? I got it working, sort of. It's not reliable though, and very slow. It drops the connection a lot, and when I go to engage it it connects about half of the time and half of the time it won't see the Media Server. It also times out when trying to scan my (admittedly large) music directory on my PC.
I'm sure that my hardware is ok, I think that DLNA is just a buggy system. But if anyone has it working properly with Windows 7 x64 and WMP 12 can you tell me exactly how you set it up? And if you used another desktop app besides WMP can you tell me what worked for you?
Thanks!

Try setting it up like this. Hope this helps!

My Ipad 2 cant find my HP3050A j661b airprint printer although the printer is connected to the same wireless network and software updates are current on all and my other laptops also work properly with this printer.further more it used to work with my IPAD2 before when I used the old wireless router but now I changed it to HAUWEI HG231f but I set everything in the same way it was. Thanks in advance.

When you change to the new router, did you re-run the CD to re-set the new SSID and password to the printer.
Otherwise your iPad will not be able "talk" to your printer.

Premiere CS4 doesn't work properly with Windows 7 trial - Please help!

Hello!
I have installed the trial version of Windows 7 on my laptop and now my Premiere CS4 doesn't play the timeline in real time anymore. It worked fine with Windows Vista. I have also installed the newest Premiere update, but it didn't help. Is there a patch for Windows 7 (64bit) or will I have to wait until the full version comes out and try it again then?
Thanks in advance for your help.

It's a laptop and probably an older one, that means it is probably underpowered.
It's a laptop and that probably means it is a single 5400 rpm disk which is inadequate.
Bill,
Probably good observations. I tend to loose sight of the fact that most laptops are not like mine and forget the common limitations. One mentions "laptop," and I see my Sager - duh! on me.
To the OP, this ARTICLE might also offer some tips on getting your computer ready for an NLE session. Common references are to how things are done in XP-Pro (my OS), but you should be able to "read between the lines," and adapt the general concepts to Win7 and your setup.
Also, giving full specs. on your laptop might help greatly, otherwise we're all just guessing. Bill brings up a couple of critical points. Your details will either point to them, or dismiss them.
Good luck,

Make Skype work properly with Windows DPI scaling for high resolution displays

Hello, As of now, Skype does not work well with Windows DPI scaling. Everything looks fuzzy (fonts, icons, etc).Microsoft's recommendation is to turn off the DPI scaling ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2900023 ) but in this case, the text is too tiny to be read. Basically everyone with a high resolution display is stuck with either tiny of fuzzy fonts, making Skype unusable. It's really a pity because other Microsoft programs such as Office work perfectly with Windows DPI scaling, and Skype also looks great on Mac with Retina display. With high DPI displays becoming more and more common, this is a must have feature. Thanks for reading!

Z580 touchpad not working properly with windows 8

Bought a z580 laptop recently and upgraded to windows 8. The vertical and horizontal scrolling features don't work with it anymore. There is also no zooming and rotating feature anymore. I downloaded the windows 8 driver from the lenovo website, but it says that I need the 64bit driver for my laptop. According to the lenovo download it was for both 32 and 64bit. How can I get the touchpad functions back?

I just purchased the 'new' Z580 with Windows 8. Lovely laptop, nightmare experience trying to get the touchpad working! After trying a few fixes, I tried to call Lenovo directly, after going through about 10 phone numbers, I finally reached Lenovo IdeaPad technical support, who told me they had no knowledge of this issue, that it must be a hardware fault (of which I was convinced it wasn't) and asked to send the machine back for a replacement. In other words, Lenovo could not be bothered to help me fix the problem, rather pass it off to the retailer to deal with. Very poor service Lenovo, and very lazy. Anyway, I managed to get the touchpad working perfectly using the solution here (thanks!), so just wanted to advise people to ignore Lenovo and follow the steps here before sending back the 'faulty'' laptop... - Plugin in an external mouse (guessing you have done this already as the touchpad doesn;t work!)- Close down all your apps- Uninstall all Lenovo mouse and Synaptics drivers (via Control Panel)
- Go to device manager (search 'device manager' in settings using bottom-right corner action)- Right-click on 'USB HID drivers' and choose 'uninstall' - the mouse will stop working (which is fine)- Press ALT-F4 to close device manager and again to restart the laptop- The default mouse driver will install automatically - which is fine- Double-click the download here from Lenovo China (www.lenovo.com.cn) and click the left icon (will appear with ??? as it is Chinese) to unzip the file - a new folder will appear with the drivers in it- Go into the Synaptics folder and run set-up to install the Synaptics touchpad driver- Restart again and now the touchpad should be working perfectly! Good luck...

Zen Vision:m 30gb doesn't work properly with Windows 7 64bit

I recently upgraded my pc from an old xp machine to a new one running windows 7 ultimate. Creative says their media player software that originally shipped with the zen does not support windows 7, so i should use windows media player (the version that ships with windows 7; i cannot find a help dialog box with the version number). Creative also says that the zen vision:m uses only microsoft MTP drivers, so I don't need to upgrade any drivers and it should be compatible. However, although the zen vision:m connects fine and I can see the mp3 files on the zen HDD, I cannot play them in the main windows media player screen. I can only double click on files and play them in the small windows media player window without any controls. Of course, I can't import any of the zen mp3 files into the music library in windows media player or set up any playlists. I checked every menu item and dialog box that i can think of on my zen and in windows 7, but nothing appears to be relevant to this problem. Any ideas, other than buying a brand new mp3 player? TIA

When you connect it & open it WMP click on the SYNC tab of the program. Choose the files you want to sync to the computer then hit SYNC . The files should transfer to the computer. (check your settings as to where you want the files to go.)

I cannot get my seagate HDD to work correctly with Time Capsule USB

I have been using my seagate expansion 2tb powered HDD happily with itunes connected directly to my imac. i would like to move it to my TC via usb. it is having none of it. it is formatted using mac os extended (journaled) and it will only show up in airport utility. not in finder or anywhere. i have reformatted it to no avail. i have change the preferences to show everything in finder( i think) finder only comes up with 'data' on the TC which is the TCs internal HD. please help

Azza77 wrote:
Your 1.8 TB Seagate is not formatted as it contains NO partition.
Compare to the entry above: Drive is "Time Capsule Disk" Partition is "TC Data"
In Disk Utility it should look similar to this:
where 1TB STxxxxx is the Disk (Media) and "time machine" is the name of the usable partition.
Plug the disk to your computer
Open Disk Utility
Choose the disk (click on it)
Click on the Partition section
Under "Current Scheme" select the wanted partition scheme
Under "Name" give a name.
(If you choose to create more than one partition on the disk , give every partition a name)
Under "Format" choose "Mac OS Extended (journaled)
Click "Apply"
When the run is finished, eject the disk from Finder and plug again to the Time Machine.
After that you will find the drive (partition) also on Finder / Shares

We cannot get firefox installed on our new laptop with windows 8, what do we need to do?

I have a Windows 8.1 platform on a new computer. When we try to download firefox the button comes up to push run. After that Norton scans and states that it is safe but a new program with very few people using it. I click on the spot saying that it is safe, and it goes away, but the program doesn't run. I've also tried to download it and then run. it will download but when I try to run it Norton comes up and the same thing as above happens.
I've also tried turning off Norton for 1 hour and tried the same 2 things as above with the same results.

In case Norton is objecting to the "stub" installer (the download has the word "stub" in the name) try using the full installer. You can download it from the following page, just scroll down to your preferred language:
https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/
Does that one work?

QuickTime 7 works properly with Windows 8?

In the product documentation does not say anything about it

No idea actually, but if Windows has as long a backwards compatibility at they're famed for, this *should* work just fine.

You can try and see. If it isn't compatible I imagine it will let you know at installation.

Why AdobePPro CS4 won't work properly with Win7 Ultimate OS

You can try this ... hold down on the sleep button and the power button at the same time for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo on the screen, release the buttons and see if the iPad restarts and you can use it.
