hi LBB!
you've got a Packard Bell.
can you go into your Device Manager for me? Right-click "My Computer", select "Manage" and then click "Device Manager".
is there an error message citing "code 41" showing up next to the CD in Device Manager?
(we've got techniques for dealing with the Packard-Bell-code-41-optical-drive-disappearances, but i just want to make sure that's what we're dealing with in your case.)
love, b

    Only the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it. Sounds like the phone was hacked to unlock it originally. Find out what carrier it is locked to, and look up their contact information using google or the search engine of your choice.

  • I down loaded the update for 4 and when I get to the end where is you click finish, it tells me to close firefox, but I do not have it open. Now I can not get in to Firefox at all. PLEASE Help.

    You can get Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    You should still have your profile folder, so when you install 3. you will get your bookmarks and other user data back.
    There is a third party version of Firefox that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox

  • Adobe reader9 was installed monday, but now I can not read pdf files in windows mail

    I have windows vista. last saturday a popup asked if I wanted to install Adobe9. I clicked OK but later the install failed. talked with adobe support on monday and they installed adobe9 on my pc. however, when emails are sent to me with an attachment that is a PDF file, I can not open the attachment...it loads Acrobat.com instead.
    I think there is a incompatiblity between mail and this new adobe.
    l tried to reload adobe 8.2 but the install fails because it say I have a higher version (9).
    any help would be greatly appreciated since these attachments are info for my home business.
    thank you, larry

    thank you for your response.
    this procedure does work and I appreciate your help. I just wish that the
    PDF file could be opened in mail like it did before the new version was
    loaded. but in the mean time I have your work around.
    I plan on re-contacting adobe and see if they can un-install 9 and then I
    can install 8.2.
    regards, Larry

    Hey Tony, you don't happen to work for a large aerospace company, do you? My guess is that you do, because I work at the same place, and the problem is with our company's distribution of quicktime. email me off list and I'll tell you how to fix it.

  • I have an Imac and I use mostly "Firefox" and I am "not too" computer savvy and it seems that now I can not see images on Firefox at all. Therfore i can not see what I am clicking on (like "to buy" or "next" .. PLEASE help me! Thanks in advance!

    I am "not too computer savvy" so if you are going to answer my question.. Please take super baby steps (thx in advance).. Okay, now I have a 1 yr old Imac I am using 10.6.8 (do not know what that means) but everytime I call Apple support they ask me.. So I figured you may need to know as well. I really love Firefox (easier for me) and I was trying to download a coupon printing thing to print from Coupons.com (plz don't laugh..economy sux) anyways, the operator at coupons.com told me how to install it. Can't remember but if not immediately after or not long after?? It seems that ALL my images on EVERY website are gone. It is very frustrating because I can not see (for example on Ebay where to click "buy it now" or "continue" unless it seems I sometime get lucky and click where it says "image" but there isn't one. It looks like a set of shark teeth actually right beside the word "image" very jaggedy teeth, I guess?? So I have been using Safari. There is no problem with ANY of those website images. I go on the same basic sites so that is how I know that. I have only downloaded music I think 3x. I do not download much at all. I would really love to use Firefox, being the un-savvy computer person I am... Firefox is easier to navigate for me. Thanks SO much!

    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.
    *Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

    I have an iPad 3 model A1416 16GB.  It is about 1 1/2 years old.  When I opened it today the screen for my password came up and then before I could enter it the screen went blank. I can not get it to do anything now. It had about 24% of charge left. I plugged it into the charger and still nothing. What do I do?  How do I get it to work?

    Try the following:
    1. Reset

  • Update 10.5.4 installed and now I can't read the LCD

    10.5.4 update installed and when the computer restarted, it made the chime sound, looked ok, the keyboard lit up (it's night) and then the screen went black. After a bit, I can faintly see the log in but I can't make it bright enough to read. I'm able to log in and then I see nothing at all. It's too late at night to call Apple support. Any suggestions? My MacBook Pro is almost 2 years old now. It's a 15 inch with 1 GB of RAM and the 80GB hard drive.

    Maybe I should also mention that the light that is normally on (the one that fades in and out when the computer is sleeping) isn't on anymore. The OS is definitely working because if I hit the return key, it looks like it's opening a document on my desktop. But I can't see the menu bar at the top at all. The only things I can see are things in the middle of the LCD and they're so faint. If I push the power button, I get the choices to restart, shutdown, etc but restarting or shutting down don't seem to help.

  • Itunes says it can not read my itouch which is a 3rd generation and it is telling me to restore it and if i do i will loose all datta and songgs which none of it is backed-up on any computer. What can i do?

    please help me

    Well, that is why you should regularly sync your iPod Touch to a computer.
    You're going to lose your data and settings; there's nothing you can do about that. You will be able to redownload all the songs and apps from the iTunes Store without being charged again. Since you haven't been syncing your iPod Touch to a computer, you don't have any songs from other sources – only the iTunes Store.
    So go ahead and restore it. You'll then have to redownload all your media and apps, and arrange them the way you like. You'll also have to reenter all your settings.
    And now you know to sync your iOS device to a computer regularly, for backup purposes if for no other reason.

  • XP Pro install failed now I can not boot to Mac OS

    So I was installing XP pro on my 17"MBP and had it fail... (no big deal)
    I did it all through BootCamp (had made the partition ages ago).
    Had the disk in ran things as BootCamp told me.
    Was going then when choosing the instalation drive it only showed my main drive and wanted to reformat. Now I know that the BootCamp partition was there because I have been staing at the thing for a month. I told it to ESC.
    It asked to restart (OK)
    Now my mac will only boot to the dead Windows Partition.
    Holding Option only gets me windows as an option, unless I have an istall disk in... then it lets me chose windows or the disk.
    I don't need XP and was only doing it to sink with my GPS, darn me for trying to make this work.
    Any clue?
    I am having to post this from my iPod touch so searching for other posts with the issue was a challenge.
    Thanks and Sorry

    Having same problem as this guy but with my iMac. Formatted the one and only choice of 131gb partition (having made one with boot camp beforehand 32gb) but now am in an endless cycle of cancelling the install but rebooting the windows setup from the CD which I cannot eject
