Outlook 2007: Before I Upgraded The Desktop To Vista, I Copy The Outlook.pst Back And Forth The Two Machines To Synchronize My E-mail

Mar 23, 2008

I have a desktop that I upgraded from XP Pro to Vista Ultimate and a laptop running on Windows XP Pro. I recently upgraded both devices from Office 2003 to Office 2007. Before I upgraded the desktop to Vista, I copy the Outlook.pst back and forth the two machines to synchronize my e-mail. Now that the desktop is running on Vista and the laptop still running XP Pro, can I do the same thing to synchronize my e-mail or is there a better solution in synchronizing the pst files.

TaskManager & Shutting Down Is Worse In Than In WinXP

Jun 10, 2009

1) TaskManager by Alt+Ctrl+Del does not start immediately as opposed to WinXP. Alt=Ctrl+Del first enters a BlueScreen menu and only then you can select TaskManager from menu - an extra click over WinXP, what's the purpose of this moronity? Starting from Command prompt by 'taskmgr" [taskmgr.exe] is not an answer as it requires even more typing.

2) Shutting down & Sleep requires an extra click (or more) over WinXP: If you're a professional, you usually use keyboard heavily rather than slow mouse: In WinXP you Winkey+U+Enter and it shutsdown (or S for sleep).

In retarded Vista you have to go thru a dropdown menu. I don't even mention breaking down good old Appearance applet in Control panel (or rightclick on emapty desktop space-->properties) from tabbed menus into separate applets. Is that designed for morons who get sacred by Tabs? Or to waste more of our time versus WinXP?

If XP wasn't broken & only requires ongoing Security updates, why was it "fixed" with Vista rubbish? Not to mention Vista isn't bulletproof either, security-wise.

Bravia Tv/monitor Run On Winxp Disconnected Pc

Apr 5, 2010

I am using my Bravia as a tv/monitor. Yesterday I connected my old AMD 2800 to it to do some testing. It runs on WinXP. Now that I have disconnected it and am using my main pc which runs on Vista Ultimate the icons in my taskbar are so low on the screen that I can barely see them; also the width of IE 8 is such that I cannot see the arrow in the upper left hand corner that brings you back to the previously viewed webpage; the x, _, and mimimize rectangle in the upper right hand corner are also not visible; and the icons on my desktop are so far to the left that they are only half visible. I checked the resolution and it has not changed. See the attached, pls. The only possible reason for this that I can think of is that while using the AMD 2800 pc I had to download updates to its video card to solve a problem that I was experiencing while using it.

Printer Sharing Via Network With Win7, WinXP, &

Mar 2, 2010

With much stumbling, I have been able to configure, via Control Panel, the printer settings on the WinXP desktop to print to the printer that is physically connected via USB cable to the Win7 desktop. When I File/Print and select the appropriate printer name from the dropdown list, the printing is fully successful. Attempting to apply the same steps with the Vista laptop fails. The printer was at one time installed and connected via USB to the laptop, and therefore an icon for it exists in Control Panel/Printers. I select the printer name, right click, properties, Ports, Add Port, Local Port.

When I got to this point on the WinXP computer, I had only to enter \XPS9000Canon Inkjet iP6700D as the port name, and all was good. But on the Vista laptop, I get an Local Port error window "Access is denied" Perhaps having three different operating systems adds complexity to networking a printer. when I go to Control Panel/Printers on the XP computer, the port name in properties is exactly as I specified above. A curious thing is that when I go to the Sharing tab, the spelling for the Share name is "CanoniP"

Setup File Share Between WinXP Home Network

Mar 28, 2010

It has been years, we have been transferring files between our home PCs and Laptops in our home network. But as we updated our Laptop with Vista SP1 & SP2, the network has become a one way only. We can transfer files to the rest of the network PCs, but the Vista Laptop does not let us in. We do see it listed in our network.

We had to re-format the laptop drive and as we loaded the Vista back again, we were able to transfer files two way, but as the SP1 and SP2 update was loaded, file transfer has become one way only. Did go through the setup on the Laptop drive as we did before. What are we missing in SP1 & SP2 updates?

Right now in my Outlook 2007 my address book is practically blank.

, Outlook 07 And Exchange 03: Open Outlook It Says, Cannot Open The Default E-mail Folders

Mar 23, 2008

When I boot up in the morning, I have to wait 20 to 30 mins before Outlook 07 will connect to my Exchange 2003 server. Until then, when I try to open Outlook it says, cannot open the default e-mail folders. And it suggests there is a network issue or that the Exchange server is down. These are not the case. The Exchange server is up and there are no network issues. I have many other computers attached to the network and none of them have this issue. Some our XP Pro/Office 07, some are XP Pro/Office 2003. The big difference with my machine is that it is Vista.

After about 20 to 30 minutes, wow! it connects! And then it's good for the rest of the day. I usually only minimize Outlook after I actually get it open so the connection is maintained throughout the day. I'm not sure what would happen if I closed it completely. But one thing is for sure, every morning, it takes 20 to 30 minutes before it will connect. Eventually, it always connects.

How To Make Desktop Icons Go Away From Desktop Toolbar In?

Jan 30, 2010

I don't find the desktop to be of much use, too many icons take away from the image I choose to display, but I do use the desktop toolbar from the taskbar quite a bit. There are icons that I cannot remove from the desktop toolbar such as the Network & Control Panel icons they won’t leave the toolbar, and I can’t seem to kill the IE icon off for good, either.

I was working on the computer today using several programs and when I went back to the desktop, I noticed a sort of ghosted out icon that looks like a gear on top of a sheet of lined paper and the words "desktop.ini" under it. I have no idea how it got there. Is it safe for me to delete it or is there a better way of getting rid of it.
