View 7 RepliesI have thousands of photos in a variety of formats, including photoshop, and when I look at them using windows explorer (Vista Ultimate, with classic folder view turned on, and “details” chosen from “Views”) the files are listed as Name, Date Taken, Tags, Size, and Rating. I really don’t care about the date taken, which is blank for all PhotoShop files, I want to see the date created, or modified – the way it was displayed in XP. This only happens with folders that are dominated by graphics. Is there a way to replace “Date Taken” with “Date Created?”

How can I shift all INBOX messages in the Window Mail back to original inbox account at live. com? Can I forward it? Can I copy all messages in Window Mail then forward it back to live.com? How can I STOP all messages from leaving inbox at live.com which transfer to inbox at Window Mail?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've baught a notebook pc. It has T8300 CPU, and Intel GMA 3100 Graphics. The battery has for cells and it says its capacity is 2400mAh. With Windows Vista x64, I did some normal tasks such as surfing the internet a little and some file copying, application installing. But the big problem is the battery life. After fully charged the battery, I could only use about 1 hour and half. I've searched the internet and found that the main culprit is the Aero interface. So, I guess, using Vista Basic when in battery mode, and Aero when in A.C. mode would be more reasonable. Manually changing between them in "Personalization -> Show classic..." is quite a task. Is there any easier way? How do you save battery?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI did a search for this and even though I found different threads about it, I couldn't understand some of the fixes so I am hoping I can bother some of you folks to walk me through it one more time. As you can see in my PC specs, I use a 22" Acer Widescreen LCD monitor, my native resolution is 1680 x 1050. I have my desktop icons set in different places of my monitor, games in one place (right top hand corner), apps in another place (center top of screen), etc, etc, etc.
My problem is that if and when I decide to change my resolution for whatever reason, when I put it back to the native res, some of the desktop icons have dissapear from the screen. Up to now, the only way to make them appear again is by going into Safe Mode, uninstalling my video drivers, restart, install my driver again, reboot and Presto... they are there but this is getting to be annoying and well, I know there is a simpler way to fix this.............
I have this itching feeling to try and see how my system runs on Vista x86-64. For that I _WANT_ to do the following. If I can't do it the way I want it, I want to uninstall Windows Vista x86-32 without re-formatting/repartioning my primary HDD partition where Vista is currently installed. This way I can proceed to install Vista x86-64 without having to worry about my Movies, Audio and Video data already on the drive getting wiped out! Can it be done? Oh, btw, the current install is a fresh, clean install about 4 months old, and the 2 OS [xp and vista] are oblivious to one another [i.e., i dont have an OS choice menu. To boot into Vista, I select my 160 GB at boot-up and for XP, I select my 40GB]. And, I would like my Vista x86-64 to follow in the same footsteps.
View 6 Replies View RelatedPeriodically I lose my network connection within Vista Ultimate (only since SP1). I tether my cell phone to my laptop PC. The cellular connections remains ON using 3G network. The connection drops for maybe 45 seconds and I can hear the laptop hard drive churning away. Based on another discussion I unchecked the Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) but that has not solved the issue.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm having with a latop, where after a while it will lose connection to the internet and network. We setup brand new SBS 2008 network, we joined all the computers (windows xp, servers 2003 and 2 vista business pc) to the network without any issues. One of the laptops was running Home premimun 64bit (which it used to connect to the network without any issues) and needed to be upgraded. After upgrading this laptop to Vista Business 64bit and joined to the network, I noticed that after about 30 to 45 minutes the laptop keep loosing connectivity to the internet and only had limited connection, at this point we can see our network nor can we reset the adapter.
1) I tried to view the connections properties but it hangs, after I reboot the laptop, I get connection to the internet but after a while it will lose connection again.
2) I even reformated the hard drive, reinstalled the OS, thinking I had some files corruption or something was not setup properly the first time...I downloaded the latest nic drivers, chipset from Dell. I also disable the Wireless card just to see if it was a conflict, but this has not fix the issues...........
I tried fixing my gf's laptop and ended up loosing all of her photos.
-basically she has a HP laptop running vista
-she wanted me to clean up her laptop so I remove several things in add/remove program
-one of them maybe MS SQL express that comes pre installed
-now, on her desktop she used to have a lot of folder with irreplacable memories
-but now its no longer there
-when I do a search for the name of the folder ex "2009"
-I see it appear but I can not open it, it says missing shortcuts
-it looks like its a .lnk file and everytime I try to open it, its missing shortcuts

loosing display setting on Moinitor
View 4 Replies View RelatedWell for what I use a computer for email, browsing, e-commerce and blogging, SP1 made no difference. Still swapping windows at random and loosing text in input forms and applications. In short, not something we disabled folks can use effectively or efficiently. I'll bet business productivity is truly terrible if everyone has my experience. I can't even get MSN to recognize my spelling dictionary from Office 2007. Vista's just not a good product from my standpoint.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to do is search by date or type of software. Actually I am searching for a recently created word file. All any search engine does now is find a program when you know its name. If you know a programs name you generally know were it is so Vista's search engine is useless. Lets make it clear it doesn't even do that. On my H drive I have a file named Zahainya when I asked Vista to search my H drive for a file named Zahainya it comes up empty. Moreover Vista admits it searches slowly because it asked if it can index my files every time and I say yes and still the search is at least 5X slower then XP and it can't find anything anyway.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm having a problem with Vista 64, I've verified the date and time in the bios (new motherboard) what happens is the date and time change to Dec 2016 after the PC restarts and the desktop is ready for action. I've scanned for viruses and malware and none were found, this is a new install from scratch.
Also I have a "Interactive Services Detection" error that forced me to disable the service, does anybody know how to fix it instead of disabling the service? I could just do another re-install but I'd like to avoid that right now.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have two computers running Vista Home Premium. When Service Pack 1 came out, my desktop, which is a clone I built myself, downloaded and installed Service Pack 1 without any problem, but my Dell Inspiron E1705 laptop seems oblivious to Service Pack 1's existence. Although automatic update is on both computers with similar settings (full automatic update), and the laptop has downloaded a number of updates since then and keeps telling me the computer is up to date, I can't help wondering why Service Pack 1 hasn't downloaded and installed, and whether I should install it manually or just assume the computer has a good reason to not install it and leave it alone.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHow can I look at the top level folder date modified, I can tell any item inside all the sub-folder was updated or created? So the top level folder 'date modified' is the latest date. Current, in Windows, even the inside sub-folder is updated, the top level folder date is not changed.
How do I make the top folder's Date Modified reflect the latest modified dates of any items inside the sub-folder? That is if any inside item inside multiple levels of sub-folder is modified and updated, how can I make the Date Modified updated for all the upper levels folders, or just the top level folder?
I have been using Windows XP for years. Recently I installed Windows Vista Ultimate. Before Vista there was a great product called Windows Pictures and Fax Viewer which also has a feature to change Picture layout (rotate left/right). The nice thing about it was that while changing the layout it did not change the file's Modified Date.
Now, in Vista's Photo Gallery, this feature is missing. I mean, you can still rotate pictures, but it changes the Modified date to todays date. This is not good, as the pictures then are not arranged properly by date/time, and the only way to arrange them is to use Date Taken attribute (which is not standard file attribute and only present in .jpg files).
1. how to setup Photo Gallery that it does not change last Modified Date on changing the picture layout.
2. Alternatively, please advice is it possible to install XP's Picture and Fax viewer on Vista.............
I needed to force-restart my Vista Ultimate a short while ago. It was entirely frozen. Upon restart my time and date had been reset to December 31, 2002, 11:25 p.m. How concerned do I need to be about this surprising situation? Does this represent a virus? I have performed a complete virus scan (AVG 8); nothing was found. I have also performed a complete scan with Spyware Doctor. Likewise, nothing was found.
