Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit changes its mind about my permission to change icons

About a week ago I created a file folder in the root of C: drive to hold icons I created. I have millions of pictures and thousands of file folders so it is quite helpful to have unique looking folders when I am searching. Best method for me
is to choose a file from the folder and make it an icon. I did this for three folders (out of about 50) in my "facebook" file. (About 5000 pics in total, so some organization is in order). Now I am attempting to update the icon for other
folders windows, in its infinite wisdom, is reporting as I browse to the file folder with the icon that it is not there. Explorer on the other hand finds said icon without issue. (Because it really is there, and windows error messages hardly ever
mean what they report). When I look for a hidden desktop.ini file in my facebook folder, I find it for the prior changes. Copying the file, making edits for the new icon and going to save it in the facebook folder, I am asked if I want to replace "the"
desktop.ini file. (Of course there are several, all with the same name, you now, because numbering them would be hard). I don't know which one windows is threatening to replace, and I don't want to make Windows any worse than it is, (still laughing)
so now I am stuck. What next? Thanks in advance to any and all for all advice offered.
One more question... why is something so simple have to be so difficult MS??

Can anyone help? When sending an email and I add a name to the "To" box or CC/BCC box which I later decided I don't want to include, Mail ignores the instruction to "remove" that name so that once the email has been sent, the name is still included and the email goes to them anyway. Pretty frustrating and I don't understand why this is happening.

You would really have to ask the app developer if there is a way to export the data.
As for adding a printer, you would need to purchase an AirPrint compatible printer and connect it to your wireless network.
By the way, your holiday letter/rant/Idon't even know what to call it... is completely inappropriate for these forums.

My Wish - Change title in iPhoto and it will change filename in Finder

I wish that if I change a title in iPhoto that it will change the filename in the Finder as well.
I know I can export photos to the desktop with "name>use title" checked and reimport them, but that seems like a lot of work. And what if I change my mind about the title? I have to do it again.
I really wish I had properly named my photos before importing them, but it's too late now.
Oh well, if wishes were horses...

Ouch!!!
Do you have any backups? If you do you, try Old Toad's advice:
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
TD, how would I write keywords to the EXIF file?

I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise.

I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise. I have seen lots of old posts which go on about converting files but am wondering wherher at the current time with the latest versions of itunes and apple tv whether this should by now be a virtual play out of the box solution.
I have tried connecting my atv to the amp by optical cable but that didnt produce anything better and am assuming that a hdmi cable should be able to reproduce everything an optical cable does.
Is this something I should be able to achieve without having to recode the files?
Tracks are imported to itunes as apple lossless, have tried setting the atv audio settings to auto and 16 bit, neither works yet I was told some time ago by an apple rep that the atv shoud be able to handle any type of audio as it just passes it to the amp to decode. I am not stupid but not that technical when it comes to audio and bitrates etc so any explaination would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any help

Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD) - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.

Mic Mute Hotkey doesn't work, Sound Mute Button won't change its color [Windows 10]

Hello everyone,
I recently did a clean install of Windows 10 x64 on my HP Probook 450 G1 (E9Y30EA), and after installing drivers I noticed when I turn off the sound, my Mute Button won't change its color to amber (or orange, yellow, whatever), as it did in Windows 8.1 and 7.Also, another thing that's not working at all is Microphone Mute Hotkey (fn + F8). It neither turns off the microphone, nor lights up its LED. I have the latest version of HP Hotkey Support driver installed (7.0.13.1), HP Quick Launch Buttons, HP Wireless Button, installed, .NET Frameworks 2.0 and 3.0 etc.. everything is up-to-date, but it's still not working as it should. Microphone muting just doesn't work at all, and pressing (sound) Mute Button does mute sound, but its light stays white, so I often don't know whether I had the sound on or off with the glance of an eye as I used to. On the other hand, HP Wireless Button works normally, and it changes its color to amber when I press it to turn on Airplane Mode. TL;DR: Microphone Mute Hotkey doesn't work; Sound Mute Button does work, but its LED doesn't work. Is there anything I can do to fix that, or is it just a problem with driver incompatibility that would be fixed in some of the next updates? Or is it something else, like Windows 10 issue or audio driver maybe?
Thanks in advance, pajser92

Hi,
First download the sound driver using the links below and save the installer to your Desktop.
Audio Driver - Windows 7
Audio Driver - Windows Vista
When the download has completed, right click the installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation - ignore any warnings you may see about this being an earlier version. When the installation has completed, restart the notebook.

Yes, removing a device will uninstall Windows Intune Center and its association with Windows Intune. Check this:

Mobile client for windows 64 bit

Is there a mobile client that works on windows 64 bit?
just been asked to test out our app on a windows 7 laptop and it fails straight away with UnsatisfiedLinkError: c:\mobileclient\bin\oljdbc40.dll: Can't load IA 32-bit .dll on a AMD 64-bit platform
Cannot see anything in the oracle downloads, but they are in Berkeley mode now rather than the traditional stuff.

Not a proper solution, but i have found a work around for the problem
The windows 7 64 bit machine had java 1.6.0_16 installed as the default (we have a problem with a change to the toDate function tightening things up in 1.6.0_18 causing exceptions in our 3rd party software).
We also had an application that was bundled with its own JRE 1.6.0_06 on the machine and when i switch the application code to point at that JRE everything works fine. Not a java person, but i assume that somewhere between 1.6.0_06 and 1.6.0_16 SUN added true 64 bit support and this requires all libraries to be in line. The older version not knowing anything about 64 bit could cope, but obviously without making best use of the device resources
as we have a work around for the time being, i will probably leave this issue until we start on investigating the migration to berkeley in the new year

Issues using 11.1.1.7.0 demo material on Windows 64 bit env

I use ODI 10g - so downloaded 11gR1 version 11.1.1.7.0 and worked through demo to find out more about 11g functionality. I installed 11gR1 on Windows 7. I have found an issue with the SRC_SALES_PERSON datastore in the "Parameters - FILE" folder under Models. When I right click this datastore and choose "View Data" - I see that this datastore contains no rows, it is empty. The other datastore in this folder (SRC_AGE_GROUP) looks good i.e. I can view its data.
I checked the source file "SRC_SALES_PERSON.txt". There appears to be an issue with it. The first field in the file (SALES_PERS_ID) is actually 11 characters long - and not 10 characters as per the data store definition. This means that the start value for the remaining 3 fields in out by 1.
Also date format for HIRE_DATE appears to be incorrect. The date format is defined as "dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:ss" - however I think it should be "dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss". I read that ODI manages dates using the java format. In java format hh represents hour in format 1-12. Actual data contains 00 in hour field. The java format HH represents hour in format 0-23.
I copied the original SRC_SALES_PERSON datastore and made the above changes - I can now view the file data correctly in ODI.
Has anybody else tried the 11gR1 demo on windows 64 bit and noticed issues with the demo relating to SRC_SALES_PERSON datastore

Hi Lex,
you cannot use the SAP DB (=old name of SAP MaxDB) package you found on the old SAP DB site for your PI installation for various reasons:
a) SAP DB version 7.4 is VERY old, it is no longer supported since the end of 2006 !
b) typically, a SAP application and its DBMS are installed using SAPinst
Try checking the SAP Software Distribution Center (incl. PAM: Product Availability Matrix) on the SAP Support Portal. You can also get the correct software there (when you're an official SAP customer).

Roland

Changed my mind from black to white

I recently decided to buy a macbook and decided to get the black one. however, i have changed my mind and decided to go for the white. heres why...
saw both in the shop and noticed that the two tone white (white case, off white keyboard area) looks very nice while sexy black is sexy and nice matte finish but not two tone and shows fingerprints
girlfriend thinks white looks cool
although its against common thought, i think the white bezel actually accentuates the nice display in this case
will use alongside apple cinema display and external keyboard... white macbook will look nice with white external keyboard
white cabling and white macbook versus white cabling and black macbook
cheaper.
of course, im not 100% sure about my decisions but thought that i would share my opinions on the subject.
krlock

Hello All,
I had a first gen. iBook G3 (all white, USB ports, not clamshell)... the white casing was a clear plastic with the white painted 'behind' which gave a very pleasing effect, as if you could peer into the surface. Secondly, the plastic inside around the keyboard and screen was silver coloured, which provided an expensive look.
The recent G4 iBook's traded this look for the solid white case, which scratched like **** and the putty coloured interior - which I always thought looked a bit cheap by comparison.
I'm very tempted by the new black MacBook, though it is not surprising that Apple have launched it with so many i-laptop wannabees out there. It's a cool look, though the matt finish shows up the fingermarks like crazy. My interest in a new laptop has been fuelled entirely by the fact that it is black. The irony is, that in going to check one out instore, you quickly realise the white one is also good due to the shiny casework, glossy screen and new keyboard design. If the black one was shiny, that would be a hard act to follow. The matt black is really a kind of charcoal colour - much like the new wave of TVs, which are quickly eclipsing silver's hold on the market over the last 5 or so years.
The black has the wow factor for bucking the trend.
The new MacBook features kinda suit the white.
Tough call.

JRE for Windows 64 bit on Intel

Hello,
in Supported System Configurations Windows AMD64/EM64T 64-bit mode is shown as not supported.
In the release notes (1.5.0_04) the following is written:
With the release, J2SE support for Windows 64-bit has progressed from release candidate to final release. This version runs on AMD64/EM64T 64-bit mode machines with Windows Server 2003 x64 Editions.
What is right?
Is jre-1_5_0_05-windows-amd64.exe the right file for Windows Server 2003 x64 Editions on Intel processor?
What about Windows XP Professional x64 Edition?
regards,
Sven

You're not going to get them from Apple. I have Vista Ultimate 64 installed in Boot Camp and had to find video and network drivers on my own. The built-in iSight doesn't work and neither does the other MacBook specific features. I use Windows sparingly so it's good enough for my usage.
