I've been leaving PC on overnight periodically, uploading my iTunes collection to the new Google Music beta online storage.
I come in this morning- the program had finally finished- over 6400 songs- and I noticed that the screen was vibrating. It does about 500 a night or so. the 'Google' logo on the web page. Even the icons in the systray. Back and forth. very subtlety. A reboot, and it's gone.
Have created some basic online forms. Now I am tasked with displaying each entire field length (visually somehow) so the user can see approximately how much room they have to enter test. Examples:Name: Field length highlighted or shaded Location: Underlining would work to indicate field lengthPhone: ( Parenthesis might work )If I type "Enter Name Here" in Properties, under Default Text, only "Enter Name Here" is shaded. The shading does not extend to the maximum length I selected. The field extends that far, but no indicator of the entire field length

View 8 Replies View RelatedSo, recently, my friend gave me his computer because he has upgraded his system and I found out that his PC is the exact same spec as my computer BUT his PC got 2 more extra RAM slot than me so, I was wondering to transfer my entire PC into one with his. I suppose, I can give it to a max of 6GB of RAM but the problem is...
Due to my lack of HDD and space, I can't afford to do a backup for all the files which I want to backup and, I was wondering...
1.) Can I just transfer my HDD with Windows 7 inside into his PC and use like normal?
2.) Will my files will be inside after the transfer?
3.) Is a fresh-install really needed?
I had a explorer window open, not sure which location but I closed in in a hurry and right before I noticed a folder I have been looking for. When I use the search function, it does not pull everything. I have readjusted the settings in there as advised before, but it still doesn't search everywhere. For example, I have things on my desktop, and if I type in the name, it doesn't appear.
So, how do I do a complete file name search for everything on my computer?
Next upgrade question: does the upgrade installer completely rewrite the master boot record?
I ask because the Adobe RoboHelp program writes authorization to the MBR (even though Microsoft says no program should do that) - if it gets blown out the app will not run and I'll have to jump through many hoops to get Adobe to re-activate it.
When I open a PDF file using Adobe, only one page opens, not the entire document. To access the next page, I have to open a new window. On my Vista computer, the entire document will open. How do I fix or change so the entire document opens?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm helping out my wife's friend who has a Dell Dimension 4700 with Windows Xp. So her motherboard fried and wanted me to transfer her files over to a new backup hard drive. So I took the hard drive out and hooked it up to my computer running Windows 7. I can see the files and everything just fine but when I click on a folder I get the "You don't currently have permission to access this folder" Click continue to permanently get access to this folder. So I click continue and it wants me to go to a security tab and change the owership from Unable to display current owner to Admin. The problem I'm running into is that it wants me to do that for every folder and file. Is their a way that I can do a blanket ownership over the whole drive, or is their a way to transfer the files without having to take ownership of the drive so my friend can just copy and paste the files with no problems.

Currently, windows only loads the thumbnails for the pictures that i have in view, and I have to scroll down for it to load the rest. I'm using fastpictureviewer to view thumbnails of my RAW .CR2 pictures so the thumbnails take some time to load, and my folders can have hundreds or thousands of pictures in them and i dont' want to have to scroll down and wait repeatedly to load all the thumbnails.

I am doing a windows 7 recovery for my asus laptop and I have 3 options:
1) Recover windows to first partition only.
2) Recover windows to entire HD.
3) Recover windows to entire HD with two partitions.
I don't know what any of this means so an explanation of this choices would be great. Also, I would like to keep some of my old files like my itunes, which option will allow me to do that?
I'd like to backup my entire System or at least most of it onto a seperate Computer/NAS but as the size of what has to be transferred has gotten quite big in the meantime ( 4TB+ ) so I'm running into a problem concerning the time it takes to do this.Let me get some facts about me:Right now I consider myself a Noob when it comes to networking 2 PC's together mainly because I'm not working with it that much. Other than that I can solve pretty much any other computer problem in the blink of an eye. What I'm looking for:
- A system that serves as a backup for my entire current system which has about 4TB of storage housing - MANDATORY!
- A system that does the Copy/Move Process of the respective files fast - MANDATORY! Waiting 11.65h to transfer 1 TB of files at~25 MB/Sec over a GBit Network is an absolute no go. If possible I'm looking for something that rivals the 150-200 MB/Sec from my internal RAID-0.
- A system that serves as a MediaServer for my Home Cinema System either directly connected to the TV or a PS3 - OPTIONAL What I've tried so far: I recently bought myself a QNAP TS-412 which transfers the files at speeds of ~25 MB/Sec not giving me a happy face. Blame me for trusting the clerk at the shop where I bought it before reading through the specs. What I could do: Build a second PC from former HighEnd bits and pieces acting as a homemade NAS. Question is will this give me the results that I demand or will it lack the same way as the NAS?

So before that I went to User > (Username) > and deleted every library inclkuding downloads, documents etc. Anyway, when they fixed this PC and gave it back, Java was uninstalled because I had deleted the files for it, so I went to go install it and I've now installed it 6 times and it won't register as being installed even after resetting PC. I went to control panel and deleted 6 different versions of Java including JDK, Jre whatever version, but still no results.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've got problems with my work laptop and impending hardware failure. Nothing too serious, just a dodgy fan - but the machine has to get sent away for repair (company policy, not a fat lot I can do about it).What would be great is if I can take a complete image of this machine and then run it in a VM on my desktop machine. Importantly the machine name needs to present itself as the same for me to be able to connect it to the domain over vpn.Both machines are win7x64, enterprise on the laptop and professional on the desktop. The laptop is an intel quad core with 8gb, the desktop a quad core amd with 16gb.Can anyone tell me if this is doable, or by any chances point me to an idiots guide on how to achieve it? This has come a really inopportune time, if ever there were a good time for a hw failure

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy folder under CUsers/ProfileName suddenly disappear when I tried to back it up.
I tried every possible way to find the folder or the files in it again but no luck. Basically the folders are GONE(VANISHED). I tried to search the files name but there is nothing on my computer. I have tried to change the Folder view option in Control Panel to show hidden files, no luck.
I tried all sort of Recovery Tools but no luck, the problem is that none of them are detecting the files as deleted. So I am not sure how can I restore them if they are not found as deleted at first place.
When I try to search for a file name like I had an article named "beforeafter.ppt" I get results in my Explorer but they are not actual files but rather Type: Shortcut in the folder/Recent.

I have a media center on my home network with which i would like to be able to broadcast the drives themselves, and not just individual folders, on my home network, mainly for backup to my file server, but also if any other computer would like to connect to it to use the media. I have tried to share the main media drive as well as a smaller media drive on my homegroup and network, and the computers can see them, but when trying to connect, it times out and asked if i wanted to diagnose the problem. The only folder on the computer that i was able to broadcast was a folder in Documents on the C Drive. Is there a special trick for the other internal drives to be seen over the network, or is this just not possible?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been having issues with the booting of my c drive. I just installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 64 onto a fresh hard drive and it is booting. What I want to do is copy over the entire contents of my original C drive over to the new drive. I have a second computer to do this on and am not sure how to do it. I doubt that dragging and dropping will copy all the hidden and system files, which is what I want to do.
The reason I don't want to simply make an image of the first drive and restore that is that the original drive does not boot AND contains a system partition that I don't want to bring along. I am hoping to marry the bootability of the new drive with the files and information on the original drive.
Is there a method to link my entire C:/users folder to another drive with out the need to reinstall anything and have things work perfectly as the way they were? What I want is all the read and writes to be done on another drive.

I have three machines with XP, one Apple and my current laptop with Windows 7 all connecting to the internet through the same router. After about 5 to 10 minutes of Windows 7 running I lose internet for the entire network. I have been able to replicate this problem six times consecutively. The router will indicate that the internet connection is active, but it is not. If I reboot my laptop to XP I must also restart the router to regain the internet connection to the entire network. Also, all computers see the network as active and running properly even when there is no internet.
