Windows 7 will not allow a high resolution for my apple 30" monitor?

For some reason I cannot change the resolution on my 30" monitor as high as I can on my 23 inch monitor. This results in super big windows and font 4 times the size of the 23 inch monitor. My IT searched for a driver but could not find one. I used to use windows XP and he did find a driver for that. Anyone know where we can find the right driver to solve this problem. The video card is a Radion. My computer is a 3 year old Mac Pro..
Thanks in advance!

Recently I purchased an alienware M18 laptop installed with Windows 7 . I wanted to downlode the latest Itunes to this system as I have on other comptures I own. Itunes dowloaded and is accessible to a limited degree . What it will not do is provide access to the Itunes store. Something is blocking my access to the Itunes store and I have benn unable to determine what the obstruction might be.
If it's an alienware PC, plausibly you might be getting the Bigfoot networks variation of the problem described in the following document:
iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
If it is the Bigfoot networks variation, stopping Xeno NIC from running at startup is worth a try, as per John's post here:

  • Trying to repair iTunes on Windows Vista will not allow to do so except to uninstall it

    Trying to repair iTunes on Windows Vista. Will not allow me to do it. I've followed the instruction to select the programme in control panel, the select 'repair', unfortunately, the only option available to me is 'uninstall.' Therefore, I tried to uninstall with a view to reinstalling the whole programme but it wouldn't let me do this either because the .msi file could not be found.
    Can anyone out there help??
    Regards

    Therefore, I tried to uninstall with a view to reinstalling the whole programme but it wouldn't let me do this either because the .msi file could not be found.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Help  I have installed and reinstalled iTunes but it will not open.  I get an error telling me that windows DEP will not allow the program to run and i can not shut the DEP off for the program.  i need to reset my ipod touch and cant cause of this.

    I have tried to shut off the DEP for the program but it is not allowed.  I can't get to any of my music on my computer because of this.  I use windows vista and was able to use ITunes until the upgrade to 10.2.  now i can't even open the program and it is getting me very upset.  Please someone help me.

    Many thanks.
    That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Windows DEP will not allow Firefox to load

    Been having trouble for some time with Firefox crashing in the middle of sending emails. Downloaded Vers 4 with a hope this would stop. This haven't and today Firefox has crashed some 4-5 times in less than 1 hour. Rebooting PC doesn't help. Following latest crash Firefox will not load not even in safe mode. Now getting Windows msg Firefox has stopped working check online or close the program. Check online gives the msg application failed to initialise properly - click ok to terminate. Have also had a mge stating that Windows DEP (Data Execution Prevention) has seen that Firefox may be a virus or a security threat and that it's attempting to run a program from memory restricted for use by other programs. See DEP in Windows help. unsafe and has closed the program

    In the URL field, type: '''about:crashes''' and hit Enter. Then choose the most recent crash (they're links, so click them). You may possibly find some insight into the problem.

  • Windows 7 will not allow me to recovery to factory settings

    MY  DVD's will not work to recover system setup.   F11 does not work at all .. I still have the recover partition on my hard drive... Should I reformt my hard drive and use my recovery disks to get back Vista ??? This is a good one... Can someone please help me ....
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    You can try this...it might work if you've not deleted the "hidden" files.
    Boot to the desktop, go to the start menu, right-click on "computer" and select manage. 
    This will launch the Microsoft Management Console. 
    On the left side of the MMC, click on "Disk Management" and then it will show you all of the partitions and hard drives in the unit.
    Right-click on the "HP Recovery" partition and select "Mark as Active Partition." 
    When the warning prompt appears, select "Yes" - Then reboot the notebook and it will automatically boot into the Recovery Manager without having to press F11.
     Perform the recovery as usual and then everything will be normal again.
     This will only work as long as the Recovery Partition hasn't been modified or the "Recovery" file deleted.
     If you can't get to Disk Management following the instructions, try this article for help finding it.

  • HT1926 my windows computer will not allow me to open itunes when i just installed it, it says it did not instal itunes helper or itunes support, so i have to reinstall it, i keep doing that but nothing changes.

    every time i try to install iunes on my windows computer, it says that the itunes helper was not intalled or itunes support was not installed and that i need to reinstall itunes, i keep doing that but nothing changes. Any suggestions?

    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • Windows Explorer will not allow me to download Firefox. Suggestions?

    I am running Windows 7 and Internet Explorer. When I attempt to download Firefox I receive an error message saying that Firefox can not be downloaded. I have tried the usual fixes by disabling my anti-virus program and disabling certain download buttons in Explorer but without success. Any suggestions? PS: It's a Dell computer still under warranty but when I called them for assistance they wanted $249.00 to assist me. So much for the great tech support and customer service they offer!!!!!

    A possibility is to open the Mozilla FTP website in <u>Windows Explorer</u> and download the Firefox set up file that way.
    See "How To Download Firefox On a New Computer Without Using Internet Explorer":
    * http://www.howtogeek.com/125447/
    * ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/latest/win32/en-US/
    Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

    Firefox hangs and will not allow me to access other programs running when I resize a pop up window, move a pop up window, accidentally right click flash content.
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == Not sure when it statrted

    Hi.
    When this happens, please press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC and see how much RAM and CPU Firefox is using. If they're sky high, then... Well, that kind of issues are, unfortunately, more common and the we'd like. Thankfully, 99% of the cases are very easy to solve. However, you do need to diagnose what your exact problem is. Do this:
    #run Firefox in safe-mode to disable all extensions and plugins. If this fixes your issues, be them with RAM or CPU usage, then you know it's a problem with plugins or extensions. Proceed to number 2. If safe-mode doesn't fix the issues, then read bellow, after this list;
    #update all extensions and plugins in your Firefox. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
    #disable all extensions and plugins in your Firefox (not running safe-mode). Being certain that, as in safe-mode, the problems you're having have gone away, enable one plugin at a time. You should be certain that you WANT that plugin to be enabled, so keep your overall number of plugins as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic plugin, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all plugins (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all.
    #enable one extension at a time. Again, be certain that you WANT that extension to be enabled, so keep your overall number of extensions as low as possible. When you encounter the problems, you know you've found a problematic extension, so disable it for good. Keep enabling all your extensions (except problematic ones) until you've gone through them all;
    #you're done! You've fixed your problems with problematic add-ons.
    Ok, if disabling all extensions and plugins through safe-mode didn't work to bring Firefox's CPU and RAM usage to good levels, then you have different issue. The most likely scenario is that you have a third party software running on your computer that is messing with Firefox. Do as follows:
    #do a virus/malware check on your computer. If this doesn't fix it, proceed;
    #disable all software running in the background that you don't want to have running in the background (in windows, this is done by pressing WINDOWS+R in your keyboard, typing "msconfig" (without the commas) and pressing enter. Now, under the "Startup" tab, you can uncheck the software you don't want, and reboot your system for changes to take effect. If you're unsure of what software you want running, ask someone with more experience). If this doesn't fix you issues with Firefox, proceed;
    #check your firewall/antivirus/security suite for enabled functions/features that you don't want and/or may be conflicting with Firefox. You'll find that these features are most likely tied to Internet Security features, such as link scanners or URL checkers and the like. If you're not sure they are conflicting with Firefox, simply try to disable to see whether or not that's true. As long as you don't browse the web with your antivirus completely off and your firewall completely turned off, there should be no problems. If this doesn't solve the issues, proceed to the following number;
    #check your operating system security options, mainly advanced options that are not configured by default. While it's very unlikely that this may be the cause of the problem (after all, it's the last item on the list), it's remotely possible. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas. Except make sure you've followed my instructions correctly.

    I have a cd of New Yorker magazine cartoons which I got in 2004. It requires adobe 6.0.1 but my computer will not allow me to install that version as it is outdated.  I have windows 7. How to I get this CD to open? -Bob

    If the CD absolutely requires that old version, then it is basically obsolete. However, it might work with the current version ... have you installed the current version of Adobe Reader, and if so what does it say when you try to use the CD?

  • When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. How can I resolve this?

    Question
    When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. When I swap to private browsing firefox allows me to anter the website address directly into the location bar - but this is a slow [prcess to swap back and forth - also by dint of using private browsing I loose my website information.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • When trying to save a bookmark to a specific pre-established folder the window disappears and will not allow me to make a selection. If I hover in the area it will flash on the screen and disappear again, it's annoying please help!

    When I attempt to save a new bookmark and want to save it in a folder the window that typically appears just below the address bar will not stay on the screen. It flashes on the screen and as soon as I move my cursor over it, it disappears. It will not allow me to make a selection of any kind. If I randomly hover over the general area the window will flash back in view but disappear again just as quickly. If I then show all my bookmarks, the bookmark was saved and I have to move it to the folder I actually want it in. Just a few extra steps, but still very annoying. Please help!

    This has been posted for almost 2 weeks and not one reply. Thanks a bunch! As a newbie to OOo and Mozilla, I am not impressed with responsiveness to support needs with either. So, the future of my new experiment with going non-Microsoft remains an open question.
    Oddly enough, the problem mysteriously went away. I have followed the same routine and changed no settings. Suddenly all of the downloaded spreadsheets were no longer read-only. So I consider the matter resolved.
