Mouse and Touchpad settings Windows 8.1 and Surface Pro 3

I have a Surface Pro 3 running Windows 8.1. I noticed that I can no longer use the right or left clicks when using the touch pad on the Surface Pro 3 keyboard.
When I go to PC Settings - PC and devices - Mouse and Touchpad I only see the section for the Mouse, touchpad does not display.
This is occurs with a domain user account. If I log in as a domain admin (different account) the touchpad settings now appear. Does anyone have any thoughts?
If I make the original user and admin or domain admin the results don't change, the touchpad settings still do not display.

Hi,
It's hard to troubleshoot since I have no specific Surface pro to do a test.
Based on your description, when you add the promblematic user account to domain administrator group, the touchpad setting still not appear.
I suggest you recreate a new local user either admin or standard to check if it could get the correct setting.

How can I install and run a Windows program on my MacBook Pro/?

How can I install and run a Windows program on my MacBook Pro?

You have several options.
1, Use a Virtual Machine like Vmware, Parallels etc... to Create a Virtual Windows Installation and Run your program in there. A Virtual MAchine will runn in a Window on your Desktop and share your Mac's resources RAM HD space processor. Your MAc desktop will still be available while you run Windows install.

2. Install Windows on a partition using Bootcamp. It will run a full installation of Windows you can boot into, and run your programs. The Mac desktop will not available until your reboot the computer and start in OSx instead of Windows.

3. Use Wine / Winebottler to run the Application without the need for a complete Windows installation.

I'm glad your page mentioned the Hyper-V alternative but wish it would elaborate on the potential deficiencies or necessary workarounds. E.g. regarding mouse pointer or Pen, I have W10TP installed as a Hyper-V guest in my Surface Pro 2 and a silly
thing with it is I need to use Mouse Sonar (e.g. press a Ctrl- key) to find out where the pointer is before clicking. After that it works fine. Heh. Right now I'm not having that problem symptom but I can't get on fully to test this recollection
because I have forgotten its password. ; }

Hello, After Firefox update there is no toolmar and menus, Firefox window turns blue and blurry

Hello,
When I open Firefox, it shows only close/collapse buttons that work and a Firefox button that asks to close, collapse etc.
Nothing else is available. The whole Firefox window is blue and transparent.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefix, it does not help.
I have Windows 7

hello nevada_777, please follow the troubleshooting steps described at [[Firefox opens with a transparent or blank window]]. if this resolves the issue, it would also be interesting which extension caused the issue in your case. thank you!

I just downloaded Firefox 4 and I run Windows 7 Ultimate and it crashes before it loads up I double click the link and it brings up the "Mozilla Crash Reporter" everytime I try to start it.

Basically I downloaded Firefox 4 when it was a beta and now after it's been released and everytime I double click the shortcut or the direct link in the start menu and it shows my mouse with the loading icon and then it pops up the "Mozilla Crash Reporter" and I've submitted multiple reports and got nothing back and I now can't revert back to pre-4.0 Firefox to even just use it while the problem is rectified.

Your best bet would be to uninstall the BETA and install the actual release, instructions as follows.
* Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0] and download a fresh installation file to the desktop. If necessary, download the file with IE8 or 9, but choose to save it to your desktop when you see the prompt.
* Hit '''CTRL+SHIFT+ESC''' to bring up '''Task Manager''', go to the '''Processes '''list and see if you can find '''firefox.exe''' running in there. If you do, right click it and choose "'''Kill Process'''".
* Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to '''Mozilla Firefox''' and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box).
* Then reboot and delete the folder called '''Mozilla Firefox''' at this location: ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
* Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.
If you prefer to install the previous secure version which is v3.6.16, use the following link, otherwise the procedure is the same: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Download Firefox v3.6.16]

Where are mouse and touchpad settings stored in plist on mac mini?

Hi,
I have a mac-mini with OS 10.8.
I want to know,in which plist(s) are mouse and trackpad preferences stored on mac-mini.
I want to auto-configure several mac-mini by just replacing the plists instead of manually configuring everytime.
Looking forward to your advice.
Thanks.

App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data in the file sessionstore.js in the Firefox profile folder.

Video formats and optimum settings for both Mac and Windows XP

Now this is a strange one: I create a Windows Media (WMV) file and it plays great on the Mac (I have Flip4Mac installed also). However, it doesn't play on Windows XP in MSIE -- but the QuickTime (.M4V file) does. I do have QuickTime installed on the WXP. I guess the following questions are of interest not only to me but to a lot of people:
1. What are the absolute optimum settings and format for a QuickTime file that will be played on an Apple in Safari or other browser? .MOV? .M4V? .MP4?
2. Same question for Windows XP. .AVI? .WMV?
I know there is a lot of already available information on this but I'm looking for a video expert who has troubleshot this to death and has this down and working on an existing website.
NOTE: I would make it a Flash file but Keynote exports a non-playing Flash format file as does QuickTime, so no luck there. Also, for some stupid reason Keynote separates the audio and video when exporting to a QuickTime movie and what's with that?
Sorry this got long but not only I, but I'm sure a lot of people have this set of questions. Much appreciated.

sorchard –
Depends – if you are planning on connecting to an Exchange Server then I would suggest that you install Crossover (www.codeweavers.com) on your Mac’s and then Office 2003/Outlook. I am connecting to an Exchange Server running Windows Small Business Server 2003 and have not had any problems using Outlook and sharing Calendar data between my XP and Mac systems.
If you are not planning on using Exchange and your mail usage is not that demanding (less than 20 messages daily) the you could use the basic Mail clients that come with OSX (Mail) and Windows (Outlook Express).

I continue to get missing msvcr80.dll and error 7 (windows error 126) and cannot thus reinstall itunes.

I did an update of the Microsoft Framework.net (4), but it did not help. Cannot reinstall my itunes and this whole thing started when I clicked on my computer to get the latest itunes update when the window came up.

Hey Jon Wahl,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with the latest iTunes update. Let’s troubleshoot the iTunes installation by completely removing and reinstalling iTunes and all related components (it is important to remove all components in the order listed):

Mail settings and firewall settings (they go hand and hand)

Hi, could someone please tell me if I have the correct or best settings for my OS X server.
I am currently using the following:
SMTP - 25 AND SSL IS CHECKED
WEB - 80
POP3 - 110
IMAP - 143
HTTPS - 443
SMTP SSL - 465 REQUIRES SSL
IMAP SSL - 993 AND SSL IS CHECKED
POP3 SSL- 995
I want to get my emails ALL switched over to SSL then delete all NON-SECURE ports.
I would also like to send outgoing mail SSL if that is possible.
Thanks in advance!
Hal

Add on to Camelot's post... "You have no control over whether outgoing mail from the server uses SSL or not. That depends on whether the remote mail server supports SSL and there's no way you can predict or control that. "
So the SMTP SSL option should be "use" and not "require". Also, the Mac OS X version of SMTP over SSL operates not on the traditional port 465, but on port 25, the standard SMTP port, using TLS. Port 25 is the default port in Apple Mail client if SSL is 'ticked' in this but other mail clients may need it explicitly set.

Can't connect to imessage on my iPhone 5. It says waiting for activation and when I try to sign in tells me to check my network connection. I've tried resetting the settings and network settings, turning it off and on, and nothing works. Any ideas?

Does the same thing for FaceTime

So..any suggestions? Just to note, it is definitely without a doubt sim free and unlocked to all networks.
Thanks in advance.
"SIM Free" does not mean the same thing as "Unlocked". SIM Free means you can use it with any carrier, but it will lock to the first carrier whose SIM you activate it with. The ONLY source for truly unlocked phones is direct from an Apple store or Apple Online.

I've backed up my iPhone and iPad to Windows 7, now have MacBook Pro. How do I make the Mac my iTunes backup computer?

To clarify; the iTunes backup is of an iPhone and iPad with books as well as music and apps.

To backup your iPhone on your Mac, just right click it and choose back up in iTunes.
If you wanted to do something else, this might help you -> iTunes: About iOS backups
