3453.	Solve : CD-R space usage?
Answer» I have a CD-R which shows significantly more space USED than I can find in files & directories. This is an Imation 12x 80Min CD-R (700 MB/ 80 MIN). From Ubuntu Linux desktop, properties show: 645 items totaling 211.7 MB 283.6 MB used isofs From the Linux commandline: df shows 290,418k blocks available and used du shows 212M; adding up the subdirectory sizes gets 217 From Win Vista desktop, the CD properties show: 302 MB used 347 MB free 649 MB capacity The CD contains a single DIRECTORY/folder with one later of sub-directories/-folders. Win Vista Properties on that top directory shows: 622 files 22 folders 211 MB size 212 MB size on disk The CD was "burned" on a PC and drive I no longer have. I wrote "04/1999 - 01/2001" on the disk, but the contents are only from mid-2000 on. Unfortunately, the missing piece is pictures from just before my daughter's birth thru her first birthday. My wife recently was putting together electronic albums from all of the CDs and discovered this "gap". The amount of "missing" data (~60 MB BASED on the Linux results; ~80 if you believe Windows instead) LEADS me to wonder if I've lost a session. Assuming the 20M initial session overhead is already accounted for in the 700 MB, the 13 MB for a second session could still result in >40 MB of potential pictures. I have had no luck identifying any means of digging into the disk and am hoping that someone will be able to point me to more information, if not a solution. Thanks!USE ISOBuster and extract all the data to a HDD directory and see if the missing files are there...it could be an unfinished session... There is a FREE version but you have to hunt for it.,

3455.	Solve : Sun, Java, Microsoft, Back to the Future.?
Answer» Sun, Java, Microsoft. Back to the Future? This post is here, because the is no other place came to mind. Can you answer these questions:. Now the Sun is down, with Java live? Will Microsoft kill it again? Once it was SAID Java as to be The Future. Could that be still true, if it ever was? So, will computer APPLICATIONS go back to the Future? What happened to Borland? Delphi? Please provide your insights. Much as I dont familiarize myself with programming as much as I should: If I was assigned a task to make a program that needed to be able to run on all the major platforms (Windows, MACOS 10, Linux/Unix, BSD, whatever) but that needed to be compiled all in one (so, no SEPARATE compilations for each platform), I would go with Java. Much as most of us cringe when we see "Java Required" (SINCE, it is a pain to get running sometimes), its great cross-platform programming. I love how you can make a program in Java, and it can be run in so many ways... on any OS that has Java, in the browser, off the desktop, with or without the operating systems GUI API... Of course, at the moment, Java is evil. I hope "they" improve upon it and make it better. Specifically a faster, smaller installer, and less resource intensive.

3456.	Solve : IE FAVORITES locked?
Answer» I can't delete or organize any FAVORITES. The list is locked. FAVORITES? the BOOKMARKED sites thing in internet explorer?Yes, but I MEANT MSN. In any EVENT 90 minutes online with MSN support failed to CORRECT it. I'll have to reinstall MSN 9.6--again--as that's their fallback position. 9.6 has been poor from the START. I use it only with my email program, because there's no choice. Please consider this post closed.

3459.	Solve : Getting a white screen?
Answer» When I turn my computer on, at first it looks like it is coming on, my background SCREEN comes up, then the whole screen turns white, I can see the curser, but that is it. I THINK the computer is RUNNING windows XP, I am running out of ideas. ThanksWhen you turn your computer on tap F8 repeatedly as it boots up. This will take you to the ADVANCED start up menu.

Can you see your desktop now?Its turns my screen blue, but its still not doing ANYTHING....Have you tried using a different monitor?I Had A White Screen Once Then I Realized I was watching Justine Joli

3460.	Solve : Youtube Channel?
Answer» I created my own channel on youtube and had a question: I see that on a lot of other people's pages, the toolbar that has these buttons are only on the top - "Home Subscriptions Videos Shows Channels" I'm not really sure how to explain it - but i want to know how to get rid of it. For example my pages looks like CBS's - http://www.youtube.com/user/CBS but i want it to look like fox's page http://www.youtube.com/user/foxbroadcasting?blend=1&ob=4 Can anyone help me? Thanks! (If its unclear what im asking - please say so) It's not unclear, I understand what you mean. Do you own a multi-million dollar business, by any chance?no, let me guess - only if you do, then you can make it like that?Yup. Well, maybe not multi-million, but you'll need to be somewhat a VIP. I'm sure you could email Google about getting it removed, but I'd say you'll have to pay for it. FOX aren't getting that page for nothing. It you used CSS or a script to remove it you'd more than likely be banned from the site.but ive seen a lot like these, even like this one you'd have to pay? http://www.youtube.com/user/futurestartsnowNo, maybe not. Now that I think of it, some users (who registered before YouTube changed the site completely a few years ago) have the option to change the layout of their pages, as well as being able to add a background image.I'm able to add a background picture, do you think I can do the other thing as well? you can add background image GO to www.youtube.com, log into your own account, then CLICK on the account link on right top corner of page. Then in the overview page, you click on edit channel , then channel DESIGNS and then you can edit your page like you want it, and that includes uploading an image so it will become your new channel wallpaper/background) and maybe you can make your page look like Fox's page or whatever from that control panel.no luck but thanks for all your help!I think I FOUND out how.... Go to your YouTube profile, and click the "Revert! I want my old channel back" button. There, the menu will be gone.Yes! Thanks! but I cant figure out how to make it that it doesnt show: "Last Sign In:" and "Videos Watched:"i think those are default, as in non removable. ok and the font size is also default?

3462.	Solve : Time to change my ISP?
Answer» So.. after reading this.. http://www.businessweek.com/technology/content/mar2009/tc20090331_726397.htm I have decided its time to change my ISP. I live in Rochester NY and was wondering if anyone knows of any affordable isp's that have speeds comparable to time warner...my ISP does something similar... all the ISP's here do it... its really quite annoying. Find out one thing before you switch: Will the price change? Do you use enough of the bandwidth that it will cost you more? Still, I personally would retaliate and move away from their company... theres little to no reason to monitor bandwidth. My ISP only allows 25GB a month... I sometimes go over that. I dont do illegal torrents, but, I download a lot of PROGRAMS and Linux updates, not to mention, my SERVER that currently makes me absolutely no MONEY. (I am going to stick ads on it soon though... might as well try) Travel to DSL Reports website...they list them by area code including those that MAY not advertise in your area but provide service... Good Luck.The greed of these companies.... I Don't what the speed is but I can download the entire Encyclopedia Britannica in less than 2 min's A Company Perk I Guess

3465.	Solve : Sort Function Help Please?
Answer» SOME TIME AGO A MICROSOFT SUPPORT TEAM MEMBER ADDRESSED SEVERAL PROBLEMS THAT I HAD AND ONE OF THEM HE TOLD ME HOW TO CORRECT. HOWEVER, IT DID NOT WORK AND I AM WONDERING IF MAYBE SOMEONE NOW HAS A SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM. I WORK A GREAT DEAL WITH EMBROIDERY PATTERNS AND I AM AWARE THAT THE “SORT” DEFAULT IS “NAME” DATE ETC. I AM SURE MANY PEOPLE ARE HAPPY WITH THAT HOWEVER WITH THE EMBROIDER DESIGNS I REALLY WOULD LIKE THE DEFAULT TO BE NAME DATE TYPE. TYPE BEING THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE. I WISH THE SORTING OF MY DESIGNS DEFAULT WOULD ALWAYS BE THAT. IF I DESIRED SOMETHING ELSE I COULD ALWAYS CHANGE IT ON A TEMPORARY BASIS. CAN YOU HELP ME DO THAT. I WAS TOLD THE FOLLOWING: OPEN FOLDER CLICK VIEW TAB SELECT TYPE ARRANGE SORT LIST CLICK ORGANIZE SLECT FOLDER AND SEAARCH CLICK VIEW CLICK APPLY CLICK YES CLICK OK THIS DOES WORK FOR ONE OR TWO TIMES BUT THEN REVERTS TO THE STANDARD DEFAULT. CAN YOU HELP ME PLEASE. THANK YOU jjjoan Welcome to the CH forums. Please turn OFF your capslock. 1. Open the folder. 2. Click View>Details. 3. Right click Type. 4. Click More. 5. Set your preferences by hightlighting what you want then use the Move Up or Move Down feature to set them in the sequence you want. 6. Click OK. The colums/headers should now be in your desired sequence and should remain like that.Sorry about the Cap Lock. I didn't even REALIZE that it was on. I did try what you suggested but sorry to say it also only works the first few times. If I leave the folder and open another program the next time I go into the embroidery folder and try to sort it by type - type is not there it has reverted to the original default list. Any other suggestions. Also, thank you for trying I really appreciate it. Well I dunno, I've tested this on Windows 2k, XP Home and XP Pro and cannot get the settings to change even after reboots. Which Operating System are you using? I've attached some pics for you to have a look at. Pic-1 shows the folder open and View clicked on. Details is bulleted as is Type in Arrange icons by. FILES are shown arranged by Type with Type in Col-1, Name in Col-2 and Date Created in Col-3. Pic-2 shows the screen after R.Click on any column header. The drop-down shows which columns will be displayed. More is at the bottom of the drop-down. Pic-3 shows the screen after clicking More. The checked boxes show the sequence of columns L to R. Pic-4 shows the screen after R.Click on any column header and changing the column sequence to show the Name in the LH column. Note: files are still sorted by Type. Can you post some IMAGES to show what results you get? [attachment deleted by admin]

3471.	Solve : blurry print?
Answer» i got a new high resolution Samsung monitor & installed it with proper driver on my dell 4550. print was not sharp. support staff said it was because my 7 yr-old computer couldn't handle the new technology. i reinstalled my older, smaller samsung 205bw (which had worked fine before) with proper driver & am STILL having the same PROBLEM. have tried different resolutions & different fonts, but problem remains. Samsung says problem is in my computer, but i've done nothing but change the monitors. any suggestions?Have you tried enabling ClearType text? There is a good FAQ on it here.thank you. yes, tried clear type- doesn't seem to make a difference. also tried to restore point several dates before i got the new monitor & it won't restore.Hello, Ffrom reading your post, it APPEARS that you have a new problem was an old computer. You indicate that both the new monitor and the old monitor do not show a clear letters on the screen. But at some earlier time the old monitor works fine. This would lead to the conclusion that something has happened to your video card. Does this computer has a built-in video? Or does it have uploaded in video graphics card? Also, this occurs with an old cable that has become damaged or does not make good CONNECTION to the monitor. However, I THINK the new monitor has its own cable. Is that true? Mgs, I just realized something. Are you running the display in it's NATIVE resolution? Many LCD displays are a bit fuzzy unless they are displaying at the resolution they are meant to. Unfortunately your older video card may not support that resolution, that would mean finding a video card that supports that resolution.

3478.	Solve : Getting my computer to recpgnize this DVD.?
Answer» I have this DVD with ALL my downloaded games on it. Suddenly one day my computer would not recognize it. I tried it on all 3 of my computers (2 x XP, 1 x Vista) and a friends computer (Vista). I go to "My Computer" and double click the DVD drive that the disc is in. A window opens but it is blank SHOWING no files. This is the same on all computers. However I do have 1 Toshiba DVD player with a file browser feature. And this DVD player will display all my folders and games. So the data isn't ERASED, but just won't show up on my computer(s). What can i do to recover my games? Any help? DLoad and install the Free trial of ISOBuster... Use it to extract the data BACK to the HDD... Check the datas integrity. If all is good re-burn it to DVD,No, ISO buster says Blank DVD. However i KNOW it is not blank. Any other suggestions? ISOBuster finds data on DVD's that have not been finalised... If ISOBuster finds no files i would venture to guess there are indeed no files.Have you tried it in another computer or DVD drive? Could be your DVD drive is faulty.I've tried 4 computers (2Vista, 2XP), and 6 DVD drives. But the one DVD player did read the files.There are two programs that I know of that might help you. One is Roadkil's Unstoppable Copy which will read off your DVD and try to recover data, you can read about and download it here: http://majorgeeks.com/Unstoppable_Copier_d2623.html The other is Recuva, which can be found here: http://majorgeeks.com/Recuva_d5514.html Both have worked for me before so I hope it works for you.http://www.tech-pro.net/cd-dvd-recovery.html This is a paid software, but there is the try before you buy so another test to see if your disk actually has good data on it that has any remote possibility of being recovered.

You could try that.As mention before know, I have basic or pet basic as what I think it ended up as and geos to which I can boot tooo....I think i found how to boot to GEOS:http://cbmfiles.com/geos/index.html I know how.... its load"*",8,1 then it loads. I want to see the names of PROGRAMS that it cant open, not the code.Ok, i read that the C64 has no sort of Directory command, the closest thing to it was LOAD "$",8,1 But it says on Wikipedia that that command just shows random garbage. So basically in C64 Basic, you can't see the entire directory of the drive, unless you use another OS like GEOS or JiffyDos. Articlei dont want to see the directory, i want to know the name of the program. I'm well aware of what load"$",8 does. It just loads it shouldnt display anything. When you save a program you have the chance to name the DISK know way around it that I know. The question is what it is. E.x. I have a game called mumpets ADVENTURE or something and I have to do a load"ma",8,1 ; notice the "" its indicating the program and saing to run that as expected.RUNThat didnt work ether.

3482.	Solve : Cannot read files created on MS Workswith Office 2003?
Answer» Many years ago, when I was running Windows 95, I created many files USING Microsoft works word processor and SPREADSHEETS. I SAVED those files in case I needed to access them later. Now I am running Windows XP and using Microsoft OFFICE 2003 with Word and Excel but I can no longer access those old files. Is there a converter out there that I can use? I no longer have the Microsoft Works software. Thanks for reading this, JIMIf you google wps to doc converter you will find a number of SITES where you can download converters for free.

Answer» Can anyone direct me (an entry-level, novice, and not-too-smart SENIOR citizen) to basic operating INSTRUCTIONS for using Winamp PRO 5.56 to tranfer music from my old Ipod to my new one? I was able to copy my music library to Winamp before I accidentally erased the library from the old Ipod. Now I can't seem to do anything with the library in Winamp. I thought a program called Anapod would get me out of trouble, but it seems that, like my Winamp upgrade was another waste of $30. I don't WANT to waste anyone's time asking for help but if anyone knows of an understandable overview of Winamp on the Internet I would be very appreciative for the URL. Thank you.

3490.	Solve : Top Computer Issues?
Answer» Hey All! I'm just back because I have a question -- don't try to get me to stick around forever For a project I need to accomplish, I am COMPILING a BOOK of BASIC troubleshooting. Being as I work in education, and plan on continuing to to so, this book is for teachers at my school (rephrase: this book is for people who don't know a thing about computers). I need to know, what are the top issues that all of you computer experts come up with, that can be solved without opening the computer, or being an administrator? Eg: Screen Resolution problems, turning on my projector makes my screen go blank, Microsoft WORD keeps displaying an error message... For those of you who know me, and want to hear about how I am doing: School got out last month, as most other schools, and my summer has actually been fairly boring. I am going on a missions trip to Thailand and India July 20th through August 7th. I am planning out college, and that has been going smoothly (for the most PART). I plan to attend Wenatchee Valley College (www.wvc.edu) taking their Network Administration program (two-year) leaving me with a degree in Network Administration. Most of my electives will be music based. Hopefully, after my college day (6:30AM to 12PM, including Bus Transportation) I may be working for the school district as part-time tech guy (which, is what I did last year anyways... they know my skill and ability to work with the teachers and other staff in the school, which gives me a great advantage) Life has been going like a well-maintained record -- occasionally, the needle weight isnt set right, and suddenly a huge skip occurs and you have to go back to the beginning again... but its all worthwhile. - Jesse Zylstra I'd say the "top" computer problem is hackers and virus'!!! Cyberdefender's easy to use program and preventing virus by blocking them before corrupting answered one of those problems for me now hackers are next to be stopped I support a couple of workgroups with some computers and a majority of ThinClients. On the hardware side. we get a lot of mice and keyboard that stop working. Once we unplug them and replug them into their USB ports, they are fine. Sometimes, power cords work loose from the backs of CRT monitors. Laptops will "die" and replacements will have to be reimaged. We've had to do that with a few desktops, too. We had a bout of some trojan virus that went around, and we had to erase profiles. I didn't do top computer problems for my school, but solutions to common problems and suggestions to improve performance. Such as changing themes, resolutions, graphic'display settings, power options, user accounts, ect. I'll have the webpage up in a few weeks.

3491.	Solve : Page Cannot Be Displayed-Only In My Home?
Answer» I pray someone can help me figure out what is going on with my computer. For the last week when I go to my favorite website it gives me "page cannot be displayed". ALL other sites work just fine. So after several days of trying to fix it myself I took it to my computer fix it guy. He hooked it up and bam it worked just fine. So he still took off some bad gliches I had just to be safe. I get home with my computer all excited that it is finally fixed,plug up only my moniter,keyboard,dsl,and mouse-connect,go to the page and there it is AGAIN! After just seeing it work fine on my very machine at the repair shop. So I get in my head it has to be something going on with one of the things I have plugged up. I TAKE my machine over to my Dads,hook it up and just like at the repair shop the SITE popped up just fine. I am livid at this point as you can imagine. So I call dsl support because I am guessing maybe something is going on in my house that is making it connect everywhere but here. He swears that the dsl has nothing to do with it. I have no other machine I use or a wireless router,so those are out. So does anyone have ANY suggestions what on earth is going on that I can go to this site on my own machine everywhere but in my own darn house?!What is the website?livejournal.com it works fine for everyone and even me just so it isn't CONNECTED where I am right now.Have you tried using a different web BROWSER?Yes it won't work on firefox either. I don't think it has anything to with my machine since it worked fine at 2 different places. Only thing that makes sense to me is something that is hooked up to it. one possibility is you are banned from using livejournal.com And if you are banned it isnt your username its more likely its your entire network and an i.p range, expecially if you didnt deserve a ban yourself. I dont have dsl or know how it works, but i think its likely it if isnt a banned i.p range its a misconfiguration in your router settings.I'm not banned I can log in fine when I plug up my system up else where. ALSO a dsl guy came to my home today and even his laptop wouldn't display the page while hooked up to the new dsl box he brought. So we are thinking and hoping it is a problem with the main dsl line in my area.Have contacted your ISP about this? Do you use a router? Do you connect to the Internet in your home via cable or wirelessly (a wireless router)?My dsl provider sent a guy over today like I said and even his computer wouldn't even connect in my area to just this one page so they are gonna have to research it tongiht. I just hope they can fix it.Hmm, that's weird. Please let us know how this turns out after they investigate it.It's VERY weird But they kept wanting to blame it on my computer even though I knew that wasn't it. So when the dsl guys own laptop wouldn't even work here that sealed it. I just hope it is fixable.

3492.	Solve : Computer shutting down once a week.. wthell?
Answer» Well uh, it's not really MY computer but I'm trying to fix my friend's Dell. It's a laptop, brand is Dell and model is vostro 1320 The problem: Well as she described it to me, the computer shuts down about once a week and it starts to FLASH at the top of her screen (right CORNER I believe) and they already tried FORMATTING the computer however this did not resolve the issue! Please, comment with anything you might believe to be the error.1) WHAT starts to flash? 2) Why doesn't she post here? It's easier to work with the first party.1. The screen is in that screen when it's all black, and only a white _ is flashing in the top left.. I can't remember what it's called.. 2. She doesn't know about me posting here, I'm just trying to figure out the problem and / or solutionNo offense friend, but if you don't know what a cursor is called then she's better off posting here herself so we can ASK her questions and get answers quickly, and so we can tell her what to do and get responses directly from her when she does it. I understand you want to impress her, but you're only going to END up wasting our time. Again - not trying to be rude to you - just trying to suggest the best and most efficient method of trying to solve her problem.

3495.	Solve : [[[[MS outlook 2003 email printout shows slightly-cropped on the left]]]]?
Answer» HI, Whenever my user print out email from MS outlook2003 from his XP notebook, the email will show slightly-cropped on the left. This printout problem HAPPEN on every COPIER or PC he printed. This printout problem 'eats up' a little on the letter close to the left side of the printout page. His email printout is also COVERS nearly the whole A4 page. How can I solve this two problems? I have put another printer and directly connected to the notebook to do email printout - The result is the same. MS outlook2003 was also uninstalled and reinstalled but problem remains. The preference paper size is changed from Letter to A4 but is the same. Any great soul got here please help. ThanksI believe is the MS outlook2003 setting that have been changed. When I print out the email forwarded by him from my notebook, the email printout is normal. any kind soul in here can advice a solution? Thanks More than likely it's a driver problem. I've had similar problems over the years and it's always been a driver problem. Make sure the driver is up to date. And if it is, CALL tech support for the printer and tell them the problem. Even a company like HP has released bad drivers but they can tell you which driver to use.

3499.	Solve : where do I start??
Answer» Hi guys, This isn't a problem but I am looking for some advice. I have been "messing" around with computers for a while now and they absolutely fascinate me. I have just completed a build your own computer course and loved it. I am PARTICULARLY interested in getting into the technical side - PC maintenance, trouble shooting how everything WORKS... but I haven't a clue where to start or what courses to apply for. I know I have to start from complete scratch but who cares! When I phone round colleges and computer centres for help on this particular subject I'm usually fobbed off with application forms on ECDL courses and MCAS courses that I'm not looking for. If anyone out there has any suggestions at all and can name a place to make a start I would really appreciate it - always find this site very helpful. Thanks Hi Lorraine, CHECK out this link ... http://www.computer-schools.us/Computer-Technician-Schools.htm I'm assuming you want to become a computer repairman or a Computer technician of sorts (whether you want to get a job in that field is totally up to you though )Hi Lorraine, I highly recommend PROFESSOR Messers' free A+ training video series.....It's a great aid for anyone wishing to learn about PC repair and what is needed to get certified.....Enjoy. http://www.professormesser.com/?option=com_content&view=article&id=67Hi guys, I just wanted to thank you for your help i've checked out the sites and they are exactly what I was looking for to get a start. thanks a million for helping.BrainBench is recommended as well....

3500.	Solve : animated desktop icon?
Answer» I'm wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to animate a single desktop icon. I downloaded and installed Spyware Blaster unpaid version) onto a friend's pc (Win XP Home ED) and would like to find a way to REMIND her to manually update the definitions for it. I THOUGHT if I could animate the icon for S'ware Blaster, say every 4-5 hrs. or so, she might take the hint to check for new DEFINITION updates at least once a wk. I didn't know if this is possible to do, or if someone out there has a more obvious way to remind her to ck. for new defs. occasionally. Not afraid to dabble in RegEdit if that's what it takes. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.Have a look here: http://www.iconarchive.com/ for an icon that you think suits. If you can't find an animated one, then just do a quick Google for it. Download it. Then, go to the Desktop, right click Spyware Blaster and choose Properties. Choose the Shortcut tab, then Change Icon. You can then BROWSE to the icon you downloaded. When finished click Okay.
