Feb 20, 2009Somewhere for some reason I now have almost 200 Unknown contacts in my contacts list. If I double clk on the name in the contact list which is named Unknown it will open the address info box and let me see who it really is....NO Matter what I change in that box that shows the real contact persons info along with their real names....not the name Unknown..... in fact the name Unknown does not appear anywhere in the contacts info box.....So how do I either merge them with the correct individuals info .... or change the name to read properly
View 6 Replies View RelatedDisplay A List Of Recently Open Files/programs
Aug 15, 2009I didn't have this annoyance in WinXP but I do in WinVista. It forgets recently opened text files for example, I have a daily "note" file which gets registered in "Recendly Opened Docs" (click Start-->Documents) for ONE sesssion, if I reboot or just work for many hours/next day it's not there and I have to go search in WinExplorer for the d*** file?
Please don't tell me to turn ON Taskbar options "store & display a list of recently open files/prgrams" - those options are both on, also I've been doing computers for decades.Something else is going on here, it's not my settings at fault.Plus, ironically Vista remembers a bunch of OLD files I opened ages ago and still listed as "recently opened" I am tired of looking up for files (in File System/WinExplorer) which I used
to open with TWO CLICKS in WinXP. Yes I can place them all in a conveniently accessible folder, but do NOT want to, it's user's right to keep files where user wants to, especially b/c duplicates/confusion would arise & my system is loaded with a Million files.
Address List: Display The Names In Contact List
Mar 23, 2008I'm just starting to use Windows Mail - looking for a way to display the names in my contact list (previously address book) on the "home" page of Mail, under the folder list, as I used to see them in Outlook Express. It's much more cumbersome to have to open the contact list, find a name and then click on the email button. Is that the only way to open a new mail with a person's name in the To field?

View 9 Replies View RelatedSP1 And Network List Service
Mar 23, 2008installed Vista SP1 and now there's no network icon in system tray but actual internet access works fine. I go to taskbar properties and select always show network icon and the icon reappears but I get the two computers with a red X. I mouse over it and get a window "connection status unknown : the service to detect this status is turned off." So I click the message and I get these options: "More Information. Connect to a Network. Network and Sharing Center". I click more information and a box pops up asking me do I
want to turn on Network List Service. I click "turn this on" and windows brings up the UAC prompt for Network and Sharing Center. I click continue but the network icon does not change to a globe even after a reboot. I go into the list of services in the Administrative Tools control panel and attempt to turn on Network List Service there and I get this message "The Network List Service service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or
programs." The services which this service depend on all are running, although there also is the TCP/IP Protocol driver and NSI Proxy service whose status I don't know. SLUI Notification Service which depends on this service won't start. This worries me as this service has to do with activation and I don''t want my (genuine) copy of Vista suddenly becoming unactivated!
Clear The List Url History
Mar 5, 2009What's the name of the feature that tracks the things you type into the address bar and then populates the dropdown list of the last 20 you entered as well as generating a list of past sites you've typed as you type in a new URL? I'm looking for a way to clear that list, but first I need to know what it's called.
So far I know it's not considered a "Form" because Clear Form Data doesn't remove it. It's also not "Inline AutoComplete" because I've got that turned off. It's also not "Search from the Address Bar" because I've turned that off as well.
File Is Hidden Or List?
Mar 23, 2008Last night I was working on an Access database. I closed the file and its folder and then decided to go back in to check something. I opened the folder and THE FILE WASN'T THERE!! Panic and chaos ensued for a while. I was able to find the file by going back into access and opening it from it's most recently used file list. I saved a backup copy etc.....
However, the original file is still not showing up in the folder. I have changed the folder settings to show hidden files, done a search, everything I can think of, but the file won't show up. Thinking that the original is somewhere else and perhaps I have just lost it, I moved a backup copy into the original folder and tried to change it's name to that of the original file. Windows gives me the warning that a file with that name already exists! If it exists, how come I can't see it? The folder says there are 9 items but there are actually 10 if you include this ghost file.
SP1 Update Not In Available Updates List
May 2, 2008I have two computers running Windows Vista Ultimate. When SP1 became available, it immediately appeared in the Available Updates list (in fact as the only one until I installed it, then others were re-listed again), but only on one of the two computers. On the other one, I continue to see all other updates but not SP1. It's not in the Updates History and the Help|About still shows version 6.0 (no Build 6001 or Service Pack 1 indicated). I read in MS articles that it is advisable to isntall SP1 from the Available Updates window rather than force download and install from the MS website. Is there an explanation for this or should I just give up and explicitly get it from the MS website?

Frequently Run Programs On List
Oct 2, 2007I would like to stop the Vista Welcome Center from appearing on my frequently used programs list on the start menu, and for the life of me I cannot figure out how to do it. I manually remove it, and it comes back. I shut off the feature from the start properties and it comes back when I turn it back on. I never use the welcome center and the first time it popped up on the PC ( new) I disabled it...or so I thought
Question is why does it keep reappearing on the list and I do not use it. Is it set to be on the list and how can I stop it. I recall in XP I could disable it on a per program basis, but Vista does not seem to have that feature.
