Problem with Desktop folders

I saved an iMovie into a desktop folder I had created. When I double-clicked on the folder, there were no contents. When I double-clicked on the hard drive, then clicked on the same folder in that window, the file appears. I can't seem to access the movie on the desktop folder itself. What's the difference?

Are you seeing the folder in icon view, or list view? If it's icon view, the icon might just be out of the scope of the window (ie, off to the side somewhere). Try changing to list view.

Strange problem with desktop

Hi, I have a very strange problem with desktops and dashboards something else. For example, when I am on desktop 2 and i go to desktop 1, when I click with the mouse on it, it goes again to desktop 2. or when I am on desktop 1 and I go to ddashboard, it returns again to desktop 1 when i click to something in the dashboard.
but, if i am on desktop 3, and i go to desktop 1 throguh desktop 2, there is no problem. the same if i go from desktop 2 to dashboard.
I hope i've been clear enough to let you understand this... explanation =P
Anyone can help?

My system has started "freezing". Actually, usually when I'm browsing the net, Chromium stops loading pages. Conky stops updating, and usually I can't switch to another programs. I can't start xkill from menu, menu opens but nothing starts. If I run "ls" etc in Terminal, nothing happens
I can however control+alt+F1 to CLI, but if I try to login nothing happens.If doesn't help even if I kill X (I started it with startx). And if I don't kill X, I can't go back from CLI with control+alt+F7, there's just a black screen.
I'm using Nvidia drivers also, and XFCE4. This started happening some time ago, I think I was using Gnome2 back then. And I have updated my system, and this has happened at least with 3 kernel versions. There's nothing on logs. Well, actually, there's "TCP: Possible SYN flooding on port 6881. Sending cookies" errors on everything.log. But those don't happen when system freezes. And sometimes Chromium stops loading pages but other programs don't freeze, I think it's a problem with cache or something.
Not really sure if this everything happens because of Chromium. I think I'm gonna switch back to Firefox and see what happens. Usually I'm running Chromium, Opera (use it just for a couple of pages), couple of Terminals and Kaffeine.

WINDOWS INSTALLER PROBLEM WITH DESKTOP MANAGER

Please help!! I am a user of the Blackberry Desk Top Manager, running under Windows XP Service Pack 4.5. I recently downloaded the latest version of Desk Top Manager and I am getting the following error: - Flashing intermittently, whilst running the newly downloaded Desktop Manager - "Windows Installer Preparing to Install". I have removed the programme, downloaded it again from Blackberry's website and run my Windows updates to no available. I have now been advised that I must format my entire computer and reload Windows, which seems to be a rather onerous solution, as I have been using Blackberry's Synchronisation Programme for over a year successfully before this took place. I should appreciate it if you would let me know how this problem on my IBM Think Pad Laptop can be cured.

Hi all..
I am having the same problem with desktop software 6, but my problem is more like this..
http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB19300
The Windows Installer pop-up during installation and cannot continue, it seems that windows installer 4.5 is the cause, but I cannot uninstall windows installer 4.5 because many of my programs were using this..
In this knowledge base solution it says to run BlackBerry Desktop Software.msi, but on BlackBerry Desktop Software 6, it need to run from setup.exe and cannot continue.. so I cannot install desktop software 6 on my computer, but I am able to install older version desktop software ie. version 4.2 to version 5.
I think that I am gonna reply here instead of making new thread about windows installer 4.5 and Desktop Software 6, please move if I did wrong.
PS. Bifocals..
The link you provided is missing. Or it just back to BlackBerry Technical Solution Center page and I tried searching the KB13781 with no success.
Please if there is other link that may be good for my problem.
Thank you very much.
Hi ihalimsujanto and welcome to the forums!
My first concern is that you do have a version of desktop manager that you can maintain your device and PIM data with, do you?
Please post back with as much detail as possible regarding your hardware and software setup.
Also post what steps you have taken to resolve the issue. The more detail we have the better we can help you. I'll reread KB 19300 and find what happened to my broken link.
Thanks.

Volume problem with Desktop Theatre 5.1 DTT2200

Hi,
I'm experiencing problems with my Desktop Theatre 5.1 DTT2200's volume. It goes up and down with no sense. Doesn't matter if I'm watching a movie, listening to music, playing games or whatever. The speaker system is connected to a SB Live! Sound card but even if I disconnect it and I use the onboard sound plugs it is still happenning the same problem.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance!

I Have the same problem, really a shame cause the soundquality is very good, but if i have too keep adjusting the volume it's not really serving it's purpose.
The potmeter of the volumecontrol is malfunctioning. You could try disasssembling it and clean it but that didn't work for me till yet. Best is to replace the potmeter but it is impossible to find a replacement. I'm told it's a very (too) cheap component unsuitable for frequent use so i think Creative shouldn't had used it in the first place. I'm told it's a ct. component fot the far east.
I contacted Creative but they can't supply me with a substitution, either a potmeter or volumecontrol.
The volume control can't be found elsewhere because Creative designed their own connector i think.
Guess i have to annoy the crap out of myself before i buy another set.

Timezone problem with Desktop 6.2 calandar and outlook 2007 after HotSync

After recently being upgraded to Desktop 6.2 I have a problem with Hotsync Palm-calendar and outlook 2007.
When I create a new appointment in outlook 2007 and next do a HotSync it is stored in PalmTungsten-E2 calendar with a timezone CEST (=2 hours earlier than it should be).
At least I won't be late for these appointments, but its a bit annoying.
I already tapped and untapped the box -New events use time zones- in the Calendar Preferences, but that does not help.

Thanks Colapop for you suggestion.
I had already tried that option and it gave no good result.
Yesterday I bought KeySuite from Chapure and now everything works fine again.
I do regret a bit I upgraded to PalmDesktop 6.2 because that was the start of my problems. The reason for updating to 6,2 was that I wanted to make use of outlook 2007 instead of palmCalender.

Problem with Desktop sync with Torch 9810

I recently acquired a Torch 9810 (upgrading from a Curve 8900).
Sometimes, when I try to sync the Torch using my Macintosh (OS 10.6.8) I have the following problems:
1. When backing up calendars the desktop software warns me that if I continue 487 entries will be deleted on my desktop computer. But I have the Blackberry and my Mac iCal program set so as not to delete old files. There seems not to be an option just to update the Blackberry and leave my desktop computer alone. The choice seems simply to sync or not to sync. How can I ask Blackberry Desktop to modify my handheld device ONLY?
2. If I try to cancel a "sync" functions, sometimes the program just hangs, then I have to use "Force Quit."
3. Then when I reconnect the Blackberry the Mac OS tells me the Blackberry memory is corrupted and I should re-format the disk.
I did not have this problem with my Curve 8900. What is happening? How can I prevent this from happening again?

Problems with desktop/app sharing/viewing through conference

We have a problem with viewing shared desktop/app with external contacts in a conference. We're able to share/view desktop/app directly with an external users, but not in a conference. We get the error message: "Sharing failed to connect due to network
issues. Try again later."
If we're using the web app on the same computer where we have the problem, we're able to view the content in the conference.
It's working fine internally, it's also working fine when users are outside of our office.
All other functions in Lync are working fine.
We have 1 standard Lync server and 1 Edge, we don't have a reverse proxy but multiple IPs with port forward to corresponding ports on each server.
How does the Lync client connect the shared content?

Strange problem with desktop applications randomly freezing

Hi guys,
Over the past two weeks I've noticed that a few, very specific applications, have been crashing horrifically for me. Specifically, they're Firefox, Chromium and Eclipse and anything else powered by Java as well. I found the Eclipse issue people talked about on here regarding the upgrade to Xulrunner, but they only partially fix my problem.
What happens is the applications will randomly freeze, completely. The gui locks up and the window becomes a grey box, and the only way I can get rid of the window is with kill -9.
I've tried figuring out what's wrong, but honestly I have no idea. I'm running 32bit Arch, with a Nvidia 8800GTX card on the official binary drivers, using Openbox. Everything as of the time of this post is up to date throug Pacman.
Also, with the amount of problems I'm seeing on Gnome3 in here, what about creating a temporary sub-forum to hold them all? It would certainly tidy this one up a lot.

My system has started "freezing". Actually, usually when I'm browsing the net, Chromium stops loading pages. Conky stops updating, and usually I can't switch to another programs. I can't start xkill from menu, menu opens but nothing starts. If I run "ls" etc in Terminal, nothing happens
I can however control+alt+F1 to CLI, but if I try to login nothing happens.If doesn't help even if I kill X (I started it with startx). And if I don't kill X, I can't go back from CLI with control+alt+F7, there's just a black screen.
I'm using Nvidia drivers also, and XFCE4. This started happening some time ago, I think I was using Gnome2 back then.

Sending cookies" errors on everything.log. But those don't happen when system freezes. And sometimes Chromium stops loading pages but other programs don't freeze, I think it's a problem with cache or something.
Not really sure if this everything happens because of Chromium. I think I'm gonna switch back to Firefox and see what happens. Usually I'm running Chromium, Opera (use it just for a couple of pages), couple of Terminals and Kaffeine.

Small problem with desktop

When I chose desktop picture from my pictures folder (by clicking on plus and browsing the picture in desktop preferences) it doesn't show previews in some of the folders - it shows empty icons without pictures. I know it's not a major problem but still irritating. Does anyone know why this can be and how to fix it? (when I open same folders with finder everything is shown normally)

Make sure you have connect the speaker jack in green color out port which is back on the tower.
Now perform this steps.
Step1 Changes audio settings in BIOS
1. To enter the BIOS, turn on the computer and begin pressing the F10 or F1 key
repeatedly untila BIOS Setup screenopens.
2. In the BIOS Setup screen, press the F5 key.
3. Select yesor OK(press the Enter key).
4. Press the F10 key. Select yes or OK to save the default settings (press
the Enter key).
5. Start the computer and check for sound. If there is still no sound,
continue with these steps.
6. Use the Left and Right Arrow keys to select the advanced tab.
7. Find and select the advanced menu items that correspond to audio. This
may be one of the following:
8. Onboard Audio, Onboard Audio Options, I/O Device Configuration, On-board
Sound, Audio Codec
9.Select either Enabled or disabled depending on the computer configuration
and press Enter.
10. Press Enter to save and exit and check for sound.

Problem with Desktop Shortcuts and icons

I have a customer with a Windows 8.1 machine, all up to date and no virus issues,
Her Desktop icons display the file size not the name.
This happened suddenly with no known reason, she did have some screen problems (hardware) which meant she needed a new screen, but that was not problem.
However no matter what we change (and we have been everywhere!!) I cannot find anywhere where you can change the properties displayed!.
We have disk checked in case of some kind of corruption, we have created a new user, that 's the same, changed file/folders properties fonts etc. etc. nothing seems get the files names back?

Hi,
Did this issue occur for all desktop icon or specific one?
It sounds like it might be caused by the video card. Update the video card driver and rename a file kindly to check the result.
If the issue persists, following the guide below to rebuild the icon cache

Problems with Public Folders in Exchange 2010

Last month I upgraded my servers from 2000 to 2010. The route I took for exchange was 2000 -> 2003 -> 2010. Everything went fairly smooth and I have had no real problems until this week. (I have uninstalled the older exchange servers.) I have been
trying to clean out some of the remnants that have been left over from the older servers (for whatever reason the uninstall did not remove the information on the new server). I used ASDI edit to remove some old information that was pointing to the old exchange
server (First Administration Group I think it was called).
After that I upgraded to SP1 and Rollup 1. The Public folder database no longer appears under Organization Configuration, Mailbox. I am not sure if it was there after my deletion or not, so I am unsure if the problem is caused by my deletions or the upgrade.
I followed the instructions found here, http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727370%28EXCHG.80,printer%29.aspx . The CN=Public folders was found in CN=Folder Hierarchies. However
msExchOwningPFTree is greyed out, so I cannot update it. I have tried to delete it and remake it, same thing.
I also get the following events which I am assuming is caused by the Public Folders database not being mounted:

Also, the CN=InformationSore is empty. Is this normal?
Now I am assuming I deleted something that I shouldn't have.

Tried that, I get the following when I go to the Public Folder Management Console:
Cannot complete the operation because there isn't an available public folder database on server
And even if I did that how does that help me retrieve my missing information?

Resolution problems with desktop pictures?

at the beginning of ml my high resolution images, 60 mgb. were ok. now if I choose a vertical image to fit the screen, the image shows highly noticeable pixelation. that did not happen in lion, mountain lion 18.8.1, nor in snow leopard. also is happening in the last update of lion 10.7.5. has anyone told apple this annoying problem?. there is also another problem, and this one is real big. black and white images show color, like when you saturate too much an image on "hue and saturation" in photoshop. I think this problem has to do with color sync.

Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.desktop.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash. Restart your Mac.

Problem with Desktop Skype freezing, please help

2 days ago, Dec. 23rd, I started up Skype as usual, but after about a minute, it froze, soon becoming "not responding". I opened Task Manager to try to end it manually, but Task Manager quickly became "not responding" as well, as did Chrome when I opened it when I tried to search for a solution. This had never happened before, and since has only happened when I am trying to use Skype for Desktop. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times, switching to an older version, and running an antivirus scan to see if a virus might be causing the problem, but none of this helped, and it still freezes itself along with all my other programs, forcing me to restart my computer if I want to be able to use it. I have been using Windows 8 Skype instead today, with no problems, but Skype for Desktop is more convenient for me, and I would very much appreciate it if someone would please help me.
Also, I don't know if this might be related to the problem, but today I had Task Manager open before starting Skype for Desktop, hoping I could end it before it caused everything to freeze (I couldn't), I was able to see before it froze that Skype was using 100% of my Disk.
Solved!

Problem with desktop icons on lollipop

After update on lollipop i transferred my games and some of my apps to SD card but the problem is when i restart my phone all icons of those app are deleted from desktop and need to reput them again, its very annoying

That's one of the perils of apps been moved to your SD card - The phone boots up before the SD card is mounted so any icons associated with the SD card won't show and they may also take longer to show in the app draw also
