Satellite A105-S4004, boots but will not run properly. Virus, malware issues.

The laptop is running XP and will boot but 'loops' with screen refresh. Geeksquad ran diagnostics and found many virus/malware/spyware issues but I figure I could resolve myself without additional expense.
Can't get anything to run except task manager. Used msconfig to try diagnostic startup but that didn't help. Will not boot in safe mode. Trying to salvage files (email, pix, financial records) so I am looking for suggestions. I have recovery DVD but have not tried for fear of losing files. I also have a stand-alone copy of XP and other computers to create any necessary disks, etc.

Two ways of reaching the data if your hard drive is alive.
(1) Download and burn an Ubuntu live CD, boot that, and transfer the files to an external medium. There's also KNOPPIX, Bart's, UBCD4Win, SystemRescueCd, and probably others.
(2) Remove the hard drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and access it from another computer.
If you need help locating particular files (e.g., email) let us know.

I have recently purchased finale 2011, and it installs, but will not run? Any idea what the problem is?

I have recently purchased the finale 2011 music program, and it installs without any problems, but will not run when I try to start up the program. It acts like it is going to start, but stops when loading the plugins. I have been talking with Finale tech support for three days, and they are coming up empty, but they are still trying. Any ideas what the problem might be?
Thanks,
John

Try booting in Safe Mode (hold the shift key while booting until the grey progress bar appears).
If you're able to log-in, then re-boot and log-in

CC installs in Win 8.1 but will not run?

Have reinstalled repeatedly over past 3 days - sometimes completes install but will not run, sometimes does not complete install and quits, sometimes gives Error 50. Have run CC uninstaller multiple times and it always leaves behind CoreSync_x64.dll which will not delete manually. Hat to try next?

Program runs in win 7-64 Pro BUT will not run in win 7 home or vista.
I'm testing 32bit software that will run in 7-64 Pro but will not in win 7 home premium or vista.
The 7-64 Pro machine is NOT running the program in XP mode although is is being run as admin. The 7 home premium and vista beta testers have tried every work around/mode, admin mode, and anti-virus exception. I've run process explorer & WinMerge to evaluate
the differences between os operations & dlls loaded but am unable to find the OS issue.
Currently 2-win7-64 machines, 1 vista machine and 1 win 7 machine had no issues with the program as it started up and ran immediately.
After 3 beta's 30 hours of testing & 50 of my own, I believe I've narrowed the issue down to the win 7 home premium and vista os's.
Can anyone here suggest other ways to further narrow it down so as to provide functionality on all 3 os's?

You must provide the exact name and version of the software for anyone to attempt to answer your question. Primarily the functionality of any software is entirely dependent on what platforms the publisher intended the software to run on.

This is the first time that I've tried to use a widget and it looks good, but will not run fromthe browser.

The answer to the problem is very simple, the main images cannot be found. Please have a look at the following markup starting with line 305 or thereabouts:
      <ul id="ImageSlideShow" title="Jesse the Border Collie">

        <li><a href=Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackandjesseonbeach257x381.jpg src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackandjesseonbeach257x381.jpg" title="Jesse and his Friend"><img src="Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jackandjesseonbeachthumbnail.jpg" alt="photos-2.jpg" /></a></li>

      </ul>
Now take a closer look at the first image.
The thumbnail is jacksjessethumbnail.jpg and, according to the markup, can be found at http://www.williamshomesteadranch.com/Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jacksjessethumbnail.jpg. Bless me, the thumnail is there. No problem here.
The main image is jacksjesse251x270.jpg and, according to the markup, can be found at http://www.williamshomesteadranch.com/Spry-UI-1.7/jackandjesse/jacksjesse251x270.jpg. Lo and behold, the image cannot be found. The problem must be here.
We can do the same analysis for each of the remaining images with the same result. This means that the main images have not been uploaded to the correct folder or that the path to the main image is incorrect.
Assuming that the path to the main image is correct, using DW, have a look in your local folder as follows
Then 1. single left click on the jackandjesse folder to highlight it, 2. click on the symchronise button, 3. make sure you have the correct selections in the Synchronize Files dialog and click on preview.
Then click on OK as per
and the files should be uploaded to the correct remote folder.

Hope this helps!

Gimp will not run properly

I just purchased a 24 inch Imac and Gimp will not run properly. I have the latest system updates and firmware. Gimp starts X11 and appears to load, but the only item visible is the Gimp menu, none of the tools. It shows as running in the dock.
If I try to open a graphic with Gimp, it loads but the graphic is not visible and only the Gimp menu is visible in the menu bar. It shows up as running in the dock.
It works fine on a G4 quicksilver. I have the latest version 2.2.11
Thanks,
Fran
IMAG INTEL Mac OS X (10.4)

Hello Francis,
Did Gimp ever load properly? On first load, it should have gone through an installer within X11. Also, I've noticed that my image windows start up hidden. There also may be a bug in which clicking on the Gimp app icon in the dock itself won't bring the windows forward, so you have to use the X11 icon instead. Try using Expose to show all windows in all applications to see if they've opened but sort of "off-screen."
It could be a bad installation, or it could be that somehow the toolbars and palettes, etc. in Gimp just never appeared. Check to make sure X11 is up to date as well. I'm currently running 1.1.3 with XFree86 4.4.0.

You can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

Firefox will not run properly now

I really need help getting my Firefox to run properly. Earlier this evening I downloaded the epub reader addon from the Firefox addon website. After that I noticed my Firefox was using yahoo as the search engine instead of Google. I've tried the obvious set it to Google but it kept going to Yahoo. I also uninstalled the addon but it still kept searching on Yahoo. So I searched for solutions online. Then I tried the Help>Troubleshooting Information Restart Firefox. This when all the problems began.
Now every time I go to Google.com or search on the Google toolbar I get the This Connection is Untrusted message
Screenshot: http://imgur.com/BttGmGU
Also when I go to certain websites like the mozilla firefox add on website it will not load properly
Screenshot: http://imgur.com/oIz0XgE
Can anybody help me with this? I've tried the obvious options like uninstalling and reinstalling but my Firefox refuses to perform normally. Also I still have the old Firefox Data. Is there a way I can restore that data?

Check out why the site is untrusted (click "Technical Details to expand that section) and if this is caused by a missing intermediate certificate then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
*Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
*Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer of the certificate.
You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
If "I Understand the Risks" is missing then this page may be opened in an (i)frame and in that case try the right-click context menu and use "This Frame: Open Frame in New Tab".
Note that some firewalls monitor (secure) connections and that programs like Sendori or FiddlerRoot can intercept connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.

Reports run from "view" menu, but will not run when scheduled.

Post Author: Jonathan Lackman
CA Forum: General
Recently completed SP6 for CE10 and CR10. Now none of the reports will run from the User Launchpad Crystal Enterprise login interface. Normally, reports are selected, paramaters set, and the report is "scheduled". This fails with the error "Information is needed before this report can be processed.". I know this error usually indicates incorrect parameters set. However, if I select the same report, and then click on "view", and select the exact same parameters, the report will run fine.
It seems there is some issue with scheduling that is causing all reports to fail. There is nothing else unusual on the machine that I can see; no errors, not overworked, no event log issues, all services are started.
I'd like to hear any suggestions on this, as we will likely have to engage a paid support technician if I can't get this resolved.

Apologies, I was looking at the wrong schematic for the Apple TV 1. There isn't a button. So lets try this instead...
Remove the power cord and wait 20 seconds.
Plug it back in and let it boot (Give it 10 minutes, it's being tempremental)
Try and navigate to the the advanced menu and do a factory restore
If that doesn't work then if you are using the white remote hold down the menu button for six seconds and release this should bring up a hidden menu which will allow you to access the advanced configuration settings.
Again, if this fails there isn't much to do than tap it with a hammer to see if that fixes it (hard to believe how many times that actually works. (No responsibility taken if it breaks!, but at least you'd have a good reason to buy Apple TV 3)
