    signed up twice for adobe pdf export to word and still not working - anyone else have this problem?

    In XI.
    I can’t just export to word as I have done in the past in one simple click.  
    Convert to button is greyed out.
    Now I have to save the pdf file on c drive when I am in outlook…then goto export pdf file…then find file then export to word.
    I bought new computer with windows 8 (which is awful) and then bought pdf export again…
    Any thoughts on how I can get back to one simple click again when I open a pdf file from an email in outlook?
    Thank you,

  • Blackberry Z10 (SLT100-2) won't startup, no blinking red light and isn't recognized by PC

    I have been using blackberry z10 which i bought from UK 1.5 years ago which was working fine so far. now, all of a sudden, my handphone's battery drained within 30 min, than started giving 4 short red flashing light within short interval. one of my friend using same model, bought from malaysia, he told me to unplug the battery and connect the device to directly wall charger. After i did that, flashing lights are gone and giving once red light each and every time i connect wall charger with my handphone. now i interchange the baterry wid charged one. it showing no lights even if i push the starting button. I already updated the latest os and using sideloader application named(mobile 1 market).
    i now live in malaysia and also i got no receipt for showing this handphone to any BB care centre.
    I already watched all the post and tried doing this steps..

    but my phone got no connection to wallcharger, pc cable even any fully charged battery.
    can you guys please help me out!!!

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs. If it fails, then redo it but increase the wait time in step 4 to 2 hours, and perhaps 4-5 hours.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
    Good luck and let us know!

    Read the technical support pages for your router model. There is an article on the blinking power light somewhere. It describes in detail how to load a new firmware to the router using tftp. Try this procedure.
    If it fails try to do what I have posted here.

  • Bought an Airport Express in Slovenia, planning to use it in Moscow. When configuring, Moscow is not an option for location. I ticked Ljubljana for set up; got green light, but network not working. Is choice of city the problem?

    While on vacation, I bought an Airport Express in Slovenia, planning to use it in my Moscow apartment. I plugged everything in, seem to have followed the directions properly for configuration - except for one thing.  Moscow does not come up as an option for location. So I tried ticking Ljubljana (Slovenia) as location (since that's where I bought it). The cycle seemed to have worked, I got a green light on the Airport Express, but the network didn't work.  I tried going in to change the location, and chose something called Universal, but the network still didn't work.
    Is the fact that Moscow doesn't come up among the options going to be a problem?  Or is it possible I am doing something else wrong?
    Anyone have any insights? 

    AirPort Utility for the iPhone, iPad, etc does not support the older version of the AirPort Express that you have.
    Try installing AirPort Utility on the Lenovo laptop to see if you can configure the AirPort Express that way.
    If the laptop runs XP SP3 or Vista SP2.....use AirPort Utility 5.5.3 for Windows - Support - Apple
    Windows 7....use AirPort Utility 5.6.1 for Windows 7 - Support - Apple
    Remember that the SB5101 modem must be fully reset before it will associate correctly with the AirPort Express. That means pressing the reset button on the back of the modem (if present) and powering off the modem for at least 30 minutes, then connecting it to the AirPort.

  • New shuffle will play 2 or 3 songs then quit

    Brand new shuffle will play 2 or 3 songs then go dead.  battery has a full charge.  nothing seems to work

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • I just bought Apple Tv.  Everything is hooked up and home sharing is turned on (imac, ipad, apple tv).  When i play my itunes through my tv the song will play for apprx. 45 to 60 seconds and then cuts off and goes back to the main menu.

    I just purchased Apple Tv 2.  Hooked it up and everything is set on Home Sharing.  When i attempt to play itunes through  my tv the song will only play for approx. 45-60 seconds and then the Main Menu comes on and the song quits.  Same goes for when I put my photos on.

  • When I plug in my ear pod, my 6th generation ipod will play for 60 sec then shut off. If i restart it will play for another 60 sec. Has anyone had this problem?

    Has anyone had this problem? With earbuds connected the ipod keeps turning itself off. I then have to turn it on and it will play for another 60 sec and shut off.

    Make sure the plug is fully inserted into the iPod.  There will be a noticeable click, and you may need to push harder than expected.

  • Whenever i try to play a video on my iphone, it pauses literally every 2 seconds. i will hit the play button, the video will play for a few seconds and then it will pause again. what can i do to fix this?

    videos will play for a few seconds on my iphone then it pauses. i press play and it pauses again. why is it doing this? and this is for all videos: youtube vides, videos off the internet, videos ive downloaded from itunes

    I can understand this with videos you are streaming, i.e. maybe you have a slow data connection.
    Videos on your phone should not do this.  Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

    Hello Lcw2610,
    I would recommend deleting the affected movie from your iPad, and redownloading the movie.

  • Shuffle will play but not charge. Help please!!!

    My shuffle will play songs but when I try t plug into my computer it will not charge. My computer won't even recognize it. It only has a little bit of charge left. Does anyone know what is going on with it? Is it dying?
    Thanks

    Well, now I'm starting to worry. I'm coming up on the 13-month mark myself.
    You might indeed be correct about your 'mechanicals' evaluation, but there's no way short of disassembly, inspection and testing to determine that. Someone, sometime is just going to have to take that on.
    The disassembly part looks dead easy and it should be simple to at least check for continuity from the plug down to the end of the ribbon connector. Maybe I'll buy another 'dead' one off of eBay and look into it (the first 'dead' one I tried turned out to be very much 'Alive On Arrival', no very big surprise, and is now camped in a daughter's eMac).
    If you're still doing last-gasp things on your Shuffle, in the meantime, I'd be trying the following in your place:
    a) Plug it into a valid charging port/dock/etc. for an extended period of time, a couple or three hours at least. You might see it mysteriously mount; this will be welcome but won't provide any real answers. If nothing else, this will allow the battery to charge if it's going to at all, albeit with no indications.
    b) Log out to a Restart, then open a new/go to a different User Account with Admin privileges.
    c) With iTunes off and iPS not plugged in, locate and open your lastest iPod Updater. I use 2005-11-17.
    d) When it says to plug in the iPod, turn the Shuffle ON and then plug it in. Now wait for it to mount on the Desktop and to be identified in the Updater. Be patient, give it some time; I'd probably let it soak for 10-15 minutes or so.
    e) If no mounting, then — with it still plugged in, if at all possible, one place where the Dock shines — manipulate the controls. Triple-click the Play/Pause, then turn the Power to OFF for 5 seconds or so, then back on. (Note: Apple instructions only call for a Reset, i.e., PWR OFF for 5 secs., but some anecdotals seem to indicate the Playlist Reset also seems to help).
    f) If you have to unplug to manipulate, then do that and plug it back in
    g) This might kickstart it into mounting. If so, fine. If not, unplug and turn OFF the iPS, close the Updater, then repeat from (c) above.
    h) I'd give it three times through the sequence, which seems like a fair enough shot at working.

  • After upgrade attempt for 8310, device will not restart -- only blinking red light

    Problem: I tried to upgrade the device software to 4.5, and now THE DEVICE WILL NOT RESTART AT ALL. Not with a hard reset. Not using the SIM and battery from my 8310 and putting it in hers. Nothing. Just a red light that blinks in a pattern: two quick blinks, then a pause; two quick blinks, then a pause, etc.
    Background: This 8310 had vers. 4.2.2 device software, and something like 2.6 on the desktop. I downloaded/upgraded to 4.6 for the desktop and 4.5 for the device from the AT&T site. The Desktop manager prompted me to install the new device software... looking good. After several minutes, I got an "unknown error" message and it stopped the install.Following a support article, I uninstalled reinstalled both updates, but then the problem occurred: no NOTHING happens on the device screen at all, just the blinking red light when the device is plugged in.
    The AT&T store tells me this is about the tenth "dead" Curve he's seen in about a week, apparently all occurring when folks have attempted a software updgrade. Any thoughts/help to offer?
    Please help!
