Turning off thumbnail caching doesn't always work

The standard solution for stopping the creation of thumb nail files doesn't always work. This assumes that since you don't display thumbnails you don't create thumb nails. Not true. If you try to move a JPG created by Windows Media Player as message is
displayed. This message asks you if you really want to move a system file. The message displays a thumbnail. So instantly a THUMBS.DB file is created. Now the whole purpose of the exercise was to move stuff out of the folder, so that after a bit of fiddling
you could reorganise & delete the folder. Now you can't delete the folder, unless you mess around and do it later. There is obviously a (non intuitive) work around. But it would be better if Microsoft allowed you to force the delete.

Hi,
As far as I know there is no official way to turn off thumbnail caching. The only option in Group Policy is Turn off taskbar thumbnails.
Local Computer Policy\User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Start Menu and Taskbar\Turn off taskbar thumbnails
Do you encounter any difficult position that must disable thumbnail caching?

Iphone 5 will not turn off + lock button doesn't always work

Has anyone seen this problem my iPhone 5 will not always lock or be able to turn off .
It eventually turns off then after reboot works fine for a while then starts to play up again

Have you tried resetting the iPhone?
To do that - Press and hold the Home button and the Wake / Sleep button at the same time. Keep them both pressed until the Apple logo appears on the screen, it can take over 10 seconds for this to happen.
If that does not work then try restoring the software in the iPhone in iTunes.
If that does not work then take the iPhone to Apple as it may have a hardware fault.

On a 5s how do you make the light turn off when phone rings or when you receive text, at work I would like to shut that off. Also seems like vibrate doesn't always work?

On a 5s how do you make the light turn off when phone rings or when you receive text, at work I would like to shut that off. Also seems like vibrate doesn't always work? I had a 4s and didn't have these issues

Thank you, I did find that. Still my phone does not always vibrate when ringer is off for texts and calls, only sometimes?

I have been trying to download the movie Prometheus onto my Ipad. It sticks at 793mb and hasn't moved for hours. I have 48gb of space on my i-pad and have hard resetted and turned off and switched back on, always reconnecting with wi-fi immediately. It doesn't resume?
I haven't even received an email stating I have been charged for it???
Any ideas??

Well I have an update. I decided to stay as I was so far down the road. They gave me an engineer appointment of 14 of August which was totally disgusting.
I rang up to complain and was promised a call back as they tried to expediate my request. Never happened.
Whilst on these calls I also questioned the validity of sending another engineer unless they first checked that my local cabinet hard an available fibre port. I was promised and promised that they would put the notes on the call and it would not be a wasted engineer visit.
Engineer came today. Wasted visit - no ports on the cabinet.
He was not even sure why he was sent there knowing there were no ports. Talk about the blind leading the blind.
The incompetency of this corporation is absolutely astounding even when their customers are telling them they are going to fail they lie to your face just to appease you on the phone and move you on.
So I ordered my switch from sky to BT on June 6th.. and so far all I have is a phone line.
On top of this I noticed that they have charged me a late payment fee by DD and full line rental for first month. BT were so slow at installing it all that my up front line rental apparently did not cover their initialy switch over. Despite telling me I would not be charged I have been charged.
Now as a web designer I am now tempted to create basic website and use my SEO skills to push it to top of google rankings sharing with everyone of my experience of BT.

My phone keeps freezing and the home button doesn't always work

My phone keeps freezing and the button on the front of phone doesn't always work when typing my phone goes slow

Try this... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Close All Open Apps...
Turn the Phone Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...

Cannot unlock phone swipe to unlock wont work can only swipe up for control pannel and camera but no buttons will work cant even turn off and on as it wont work

iPhone 4S. Swipe to unlock wont work can only swipe up for control pannel and camera but no buttons will work cant even turn off and on as it wont work. cannot restore iphone either as it wont let me.

Hey Angus97,
These are the recommended troubleshooting steps to take when you are unable to Slide to Unlock:
If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
from: iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

Turn off library caching for a Mail client on the Mac?

Hi..is it possible to turn off library caching for a Mail client on the Mac? At work I have outlook 2007. I setup Mail client to sync Mail,contacts and calendar. The cache is stored in the library hidden folders. Is it possible to permanently turn off caching?

I am getting more and more bewildered. I just looked at google mails settings to see if they do something different from the isp I use and there they say the following: if the sent messages aren't stored on the server, then where are they stored? What happens to them if I set my preferences this way? I want to wail and tear my hair out. I feel so very stupid.

After recent change to AT&T Uverse Mail doesn't always work

In the last two weeks I changed over from dsl to AT&T U-Verse. I set up the server info according to the instructions from AT&T, but now about every 10th or 15th time I try to "send" a new e-mail out OR reply to an e-mail I received I get this message: 'The SMTP server "smtp.att.yahoo.com" doesn't support authentification. Please check your account settings and try again.'
So, typically I then click 'try later', then go open the note I'm trying to send from the "Outgoing Mailbox" and click "send" and most of the time it goes on out as normal. Why does this happen...obviously it does support "authentification" since I turn right around and send it out using the same outgoing settings.
On a few occasions when this first happened, I went in and changed the outgoing server settings to turn off "authentification", but this didn't work either.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I have U-verse (grumble, grumble,...caps..., grumble, grumble) and set up (10.6.5) Mail just to get it to work although I use Eudora as my preferred email client (lets not start a religious war here which would be off topic). Prior to posting this I retested my Mail setup to verify it still works. So here's how you set up both the ports...
In Accounts preferences, Account Information:
Description: anything
Email Address: whatever you want as a return address to appear in the "from" of your email
Full Name: anything
Incoming Mail Server: pop.att.yahoo.com
User Name: [email protected]
Password: should be obvious :-)
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): Select Edit SMTP Server List... to bring down a sheet to specify the smtp info.
In the SMTP Server List sheet use the "+" to create the server name smtp.att.yahoo.com for the account you are setting up.
In the Account Information tab:
    Set the Sever Name to smtp.att.yahoo.com
In the Advanced tab:
   Click the Use custom ports radio button and enter 465.
   Click checkbox to Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
   Authentication: Password
   User Name: [email protected]
   Password: yet again :-)
Click OK to get back in the Accounts preferences click the Advanced tab.
In the Advanced tab:
   Set checkboxes per your desires.
   Port: 995
   Check Use SSL.
   Authentication: Password
That should do it. I just listed all for completeness any others who might not know how to do it. But I assume you have most of this already. So basically specify the outgoing (smtp) port from the Accounts Information/Outgoing Mail Server/Edit SMTP Server List... sheet and the incoming port from the Advanced sheet.

HP dv6810us - light turn on then comp turns off on startup. doesn't POST, etc...

I have my friend's dv6810us.
I try turning it on with the battery and the lights just go on for a sec then the comp turns off.
I try turning it on with the power adapter and the lights just go on for a sec then the comp turns off.
It doesn't go into an infinite on/off loop like the other laptops I've seen problems with.
I've tried replacing RAM, hard drive, and BIOS battery to no dice.
The laptop is not under warranty. I assumed it was the nVidia GPU problem so I reflowed it and messed with a bunch of other things and got it to boot a few times...but it's not working anymore. I have yet to try reflowing again but I will if nothing else is suggested.
What would you folks suggest?
Thanks, chickeneaterguy

How do you turn off the auto select behavior when working with shape layers?

How do you turn off the auto select behavior when working with shape layers?
I am using either of the path selection tools to select only some of the paths on the layer. I have the proper layer targeted. I have the selection too auto select option turned off.
If another layer has a path in that area, that layer becomes auto targeted and I get the wrong path. Turning off the layer is the only way to avoid this but then I have to turn on the layer back on between making my selection and transforming to use the other layer as guide. Is there any way to stop this auto select? Locking the other layer does not stop the auto select, just prevents editing.

As far as i know the move tool options don't have any effect on the path selection tools.
You might try clicking on one of the path points or on the path itself with one of path selection tools and if you want to select multiple points
you can shift click with the Direct Selection Tool or Alt click to select the entire path.
more path shortcuts:

ITunes 10.4.1 Problem with Key Command Go to Current Song - Doesn't always work

Since updating to iTunes 10.4.1, I've noticed that the key command, command + L doesn't always work to display the current song.

I have this problem in iTunes 10.7 (21). The "Go to Current Song" option exists in the Controls menu, but even when audio is playing it is disabled.

HT5594 After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

After updating to iOS7 on my iPhone 4 I cannot enable location services. How do I enable location services? I have tried turning off restrictions but that did not work.

I finally just resolved this after not being able to enable location services since upagrading to iOS 7. Posting the solution here 'cause I couldn't find it anywhere else.
I enabled Restrictions under Settings > General > Restrictions and created a passcode (I'm not sure if this was part of the solution, but it wasn't enabled for me by default.)
In Restrictions, under Privacy, Location Services was set to "Allow Changes" (This still didn't solve the issue of the greyed-out Location Services switch though - I still couldn't turn it on.)
Also in Restrictions, I also switched "Find My Friends" to "Allow Changes"
Once I did step 3, the switch under Settings > Privacy > Location Services was no longer greyed out and could be switched on.
Hope this helps!

Why won't Firefox always minimize/resize? Using F11 is a patchy solution that doesn't always work

Firefox won't always minimize or resize. The upper right hand corner just pulsates. Looking through forums, I found that using f11 can help, but it doesn't always work. Often I have to reboot.
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== A year ago, maybe

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
