Hey guys, has anyone seen the newest Mac commercial? No not that Mac, the computer Mac. -- doc, an Apple devotee from waaaay back!, 14:04:58 12/02/07 Sun [5]

All of you who hate Vista would love it! It one of those with the �cool� Mac guy & the �nerdy� Windows guy. Anyway, the Windows guy is touting the Vista operating system. He tells you to �give� Vista whatever it NEEDS�new printer, more money, etc., etc. The Mac guy leans in & says, �Wow, you really like Vista.� The Windows guy covers the mic & says, �Not really, I changed back to XP yesterday.�

I howled after listening to all of you �IBM� clone types complaining about Vista. You gotta love the Mac commercials!!! Go Apple!!!

- LOL! I do love that commercial! You actually can still buy a computer with XP on it if you look at business models. I just configured and ordered a new laptop tonight and went with XP rather than Vista. (NT) -- Sarahsue, 20:54:32 12/04/07 Tue
- Those commercials are brilliant. I actually stop my Tivo to watch them. Love the cool guy, and PC is a very funny commedian. As for Vista, I don't have it on my PCs, but judi just got a new computer with Vista, and I think she likes it. (NT) -- Cece, 18:27:15 12/06/07 Thu

- Those commercials are adorable. I feel so bad for the poor PC-guy! But then, *I* have a new computer with ---- VISTA!!!! I, like an idiot, actually waited to buy a new machine until Vista had been out for a while ... sop the bugs could be worked out ..... yeah right! LOL! But, I don't do a whole heck of a lot on my machine .... and Vista hasn't been a problem; although I am really getting to hate the screen going semi-dark and then being asked if 8 really REALLY want to do something. Yes! Yes, I do! I wouldn't have clicked on whatever if I didn't!!!! Jeez! (NT) -- MichelleB, 18:42:00 12/10/07 Mon

- Usually a computer suddenly shutting down means it is overheating. Listen to see if you can hear the fan going. If not, pop open the case and gently blow some canned air in there to see if maybe the fan's stuck. If it is the cooling fan, you can get that replaced pretty easily. (NT) -- Sarahsue, 20:56:45 12/04/07 Tue
- Thanks sarahsue i will try that and see what happens. (NT) -- Bev uk, 06:32:53 12/05/07 Wed
- My one year old MacBook sometimes overheats when it's running on battery. If that happens, I shut it down, or I plug in the power. (NT) -- Cece, 18:29:10 12/06/07 Thu
- Thanks cece i have mine on power all the time maybe thats the problem i just do not know . (NT) -- Bev uk, 10:27:16 12/07/07 Fri
- I had a problem with mine old laptop overheating and took it in. The computer repair place showed me how to use canned compressed air to blow on the cooling fan on the bottom and then the heatsink which is on the side or the back. A lot of dust will blow out of both places. Keep the top closed so you do not hit the screen with the air accidently. I do this now about every 2 months and have not had the problem since. You can also blow out the dust and othe stuff from the keyboard, just be sure to cover your screen. (NT) -- Jeanaz8, 04:35:48 12/15/07 Sat
ooh ooh - could it be this easy -- chris k, 16:51:59 11/21/07 Wed [5]

Cleaning out a kitchen drawer I found restore cds for my sons laptop -

He has an acer 5000 series with Windows XP

I have an Acer 3000 series.

the restore CDs say for 3000/5000 series issued with a new Acer Windows XP computer -

SOOOO

my question is - Can I use these to get XP on my laptop instead of Vista??

Slinking away and crossing fingers

- I just asked DH, the resident computer nerd in the house, and he said it might work, or it might not work. It depends on how Acer set up the disc. The other issue would be the other software on your laptop. That might not be the same either. I personally have never used a "restore" disc. We've always built our own computers and had our own stand alone versions of all our software. So when we upgrade, we start from scratch installing everything by hand. (NT) -- JAG Junkie (Ronda)--sorry, I'm afraid I'm not much help., 17:45:51 11/24/07 Sat
- You will need to wipe your hard-drive first to re-format the harddrive - which will erase Vista. You can absolutely use the restore disk to then put XP on your laptop. Vista is far more demanding than XP anyway, so your laptop should run faster w/o it. (NT) -- RD, 23:10:18 12/01/07 Sat
  - and how exactly does one - wipe the hard drive?? (NT) -- chris k, 06:23:04 12/02/07 Sun
    - I think when you reformat, it erases it at that time. (NT) -- JAG Junkie (Ronda)--I usually let DH do that kind of stuff when we're having computer issues., 11:08:02 12/02/07 Sun
how do I get OUT Of windows photo gallery on Vista -- chris k - who really really really hates vista, 08:47:59 11/18/07 Sun [12]

I made the mistake of opening photo gallery to see if I could resize some photos and now everytime I click on a photo in my pictures - it's in photo gallery.

I hate windows photo gallery - I have no idea what I used to view the photos in before - but I want it back!!! whaaaaa!

can anyone help me??

- Well, if you could figure out what you used before, that would probably help. LOL Look where all your programs are stored (under "All Programs" in XP (not sure if it's the same in Vista) and look for software that sounds like it could be used for photos. Then open that software and look for something like settings, options, preferences, etc. Hopefully, there is an option to make that software be the default for all picture files, or files that end with jpg, bmp, etc. (NT) -- JAG Junkie (Ronda), 13:14:26 11/18/07 Sun
  - I should mention that DH tried Vista, hated it so much that he reformatted and went back to XP. He's a total computer nerd and knows all about getting updated drivers, etc., but after several frustrating weeks, decided that he would wait until all the Vista bugs got worked out before he would switch. Vista kept crashing his online games, among other problems. And if DH can't play World of Warcraft, then all the world must stop. LOL (NT) -- JAG Junkie (Ronda)--thankful that the "other woman" is just a computer game. LOL, 13:17:57 11/18/07 Sun
    - oooh- how do I go back to XP???? I would love to junk this vista and get xp again (NT) -- chris k -, 13:55:25 11/18/07 Sun
      - Assuming you have an XP disc that hasn't been activated too many times, you would have to reformat your hard drive (which equates to erasing it--hope you have an external HD to save files to) and start over from scratch. You would have to install and set up everything. On the plus side, that would be the perfect time to partition your hard drive, since a lot of computers you buy in the store come with just one gigantic unpartitioned hard drive. Ugh! (NT) -- JAG Junkie (Ronda)--depending on how much stuff you have on your computer, it could take days to reformat and start over., 17:03:24 11/18/07 Sun
        
        nope don't have a disc- sigh- and on my old laptop it looks like I open photos in Windows Explorer - is that possible? (NT) -- chris k, 18:34:11 11/18/07 Sun
- This works in XP not sure about Vista. Inside for how to change the default program -- Hope, 10:01:30 11/19/07 Mon
  - this works fine till I get to folder options - I have three tabs to choose from : general, view and search - none of which seem to have anything that resembles file types- sigh - any other suggestions? (NT) -- chris k, 06:34:11 11/20/07 Tue
- Hope you don't mind a lurker chiming in :) I use XP so I don't know if this works in Vista but I figure it�s worth a try! Right-click on the photo and select "Open with". This should display a short list of common programs and, at the bottom, will give you an option to "Choose program". If the program you want is in the short list, select it from there. If not, select �Choose program� and you will get a window that shows a list of Recommended programs to choose from. It also gives you an option to select to always use that program to open that type of file. My pictures open, by default, in the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer that�s part of XP. (NT) -- TracyR, 11:20:08 11/19/07 Mon
  - this works till I get to browse for the default viewer - I can't find anything that looks like windows picture and fax viewer - any idea where it's hiding in my computer? sigh (NT) -- chris k, 06:38:48 11/20/07 Tue
- WELL POOH!! - I just googled microsoft picture and fax viewer and learned that it's not on vista - now they have photo gallery - which for your info- sucks!!! (NT) -- chris k - who really really really wants her xp back (I never thought I'd see the day I'd say that - sigh), 06:43:36 11/20/07 Tue
  - Bummer! Sorry my suggestion didn�t work. Do you have a third party photo program that you can select instead? Maybe the software that came with your digital camera (if you have one). I have my Fuji software and Microsoft�s Picture It! Express that I sometimes alternate between. Good luck :) (NT) -- TracyR ... this just reinforces my decision to stay with XP as long as possible!, 21:51:00 11/20/07 Tue

BIG PROBLEM HELP ! -- Laurence, 20:24:45 11/09/07 Fri [5]

I'm at my 2nd laptop.

When I was on internet, at a given time, about 20 minutes or less, or 1 hour, well at any time, I was disconnected from internet, in having a message who appeared : " you have been disconnected " " yes " " no " .
I had to click of course, on " yes " and have to close internet, so I could re - connect.

It never was found what it was. I changed my laptop, 1, or 2 years ago, and it's re - biginning. I'm VERY AFRAID.

PLEASE HELP ME !

- I don't think you have to be afraid. Are you on wireless? Often when I boot up, I don't get instant connection on my laptop, and have to click on a box. Then connection is made. When I'm on my wireless desktop, and I get disconnected, I first check the old computer (not wireless) to see if the my server is down. If I can go online on the old computer, but not the wireless, I just disconnect AND unplug the wireless router, and then reconnect and plug back in. Then I get connected again.

Help!! -- Gibson, 18:40:09 11/08/07 Thu [5]
I don't suppose anyone has any advice for me. I'm trying to watch a Bones episode from the "Fox on Demand" website. I went there yesterday and was prompted to download some software to view the episode - I did (although I chose to "run" instead of "save" it at the time). It looked as though I was going to be able to view the video no problem after that, although I didn't have time to by that point.
When I went back to the website tonight to watch it, everytime I click on the icon to view the ep, it doesn't prompt me to download the software again, but just after the video screen comes up, a black rectangle pops up on the screen. It doesn't ask anything - it just partially obscures the screen. I can still press the play button, but nothing happens.
I'm running IE, I've tried updating Flashplayer and restarting, but nothing works. I don't even know what that software I ran from the site last night was called so I can't uninstall it and download it again, or can I?

Anyway, I'd appreciate any help - I want to watch Bones!!! Thanks!

HOEXES etc. -- Cece, 11:04:26 11/03/07 Sat [5]
I've just received another email from a friend warning me about a Virus that uses the word "Invitation" in the subject, and also "Olympic Torch." I checked with snopes.com and it's an old hoax that makes its appearance around Olympic game years.

EVERY single warning email I've received over the years has been about a hoax virus. My friends have received the email from their friends and so on and so on. All the email warning sound the same, and use the same wording and offer the same kinds of advice on how to combat the (fake) virus/worm, etc.

What I want to know is what does a REAL warning look like, how are they sent out, and who sends them? These fakes waste everyone's time and often get the receivers into more trouble and costs. So how are we warned about real viruses? Anyone know?

I know one thing, I dump ALL emails from people who don't identify themselves clearly. I don't give them a second thought. I'm just not likely to open an Invitation email from a total stranger.

And when I send emails to people who might not recognize my email name, I state clearly in the subject box, who I am and what I writing about.

- I don't think there is any emails that get sent out about real viruses. I think most of the junk nowadays is spam and not so much a virus. Rule of thumb don't open any attachment especially exe. Ask who sent it if they did really send it before opening. Do a virus scan on it before opening it also. Also be very careful about following links in an email.

- ED, you have to save the data on your own computer, upload it to a website (a photo-sharing site like "photobucket" works), and then link to it. Using someone else's uploaded files w/o permission is called "hot-linking" and is not allowed on any of the JAG boards I'm aware of. It steals bandwidth and is in generally bad taste. ALSO, you need to check with the owner of the image before you post it anywhere else. (NT) -- The Chief (is that the info you were looking for?), 19:10:12 10/31/07 Wed
  - Thanks, I'll give this a try. I am aware of not using pictures that belong to others. It fascinates me at how easily some posters can share articles, pictures. Thanks again. (NT) -- ED, 18:23:32 11/02/07 Fri
    - As Chief said, CHECK first. Better to be safe than sorry. If you have a box set pic, and you know how to scan it and save it to your harddrive, then you can upload it to your personal web site (or Photobucket as Chief mentioned.) Then you can post it. But don't even try to copy it from another web site. Sites, like forDJE fans, are very, very propriatorial, even if the image is a common one. So do it yourself. (NT) -- Cece and Ecec, 10:51:50 11/03/07 Sat
      - I should clarify, you can save anything to your own hard drive. You just can't share it or publish or post everything. (NT) -- Cece, 10:54:25 11/03/07 Sat

  - It really depends more on the printer than the brand. For example. One of my HPs takes just two little cartridges (one black and one color) that are similar to what you would use for any color printer. However, my newer, fancier photo printer takes a whole pack of cartridges, six in total).

- Sorry, for being so piece meal, but thinking back, I believe the problem started when I tried to right click on Spudz's "looping" smiling Harm from last Friday. A box appeared that asked about defaults and I thought I just closed the box ,but maybe I clicked on something else. Any help would be appreciated.

Spam and "Turing Numbers" -- The Chief, 08:43:21 10/11/07 Thu [9]

After reading Judi's post today on the HB about instituing "Turing Numbers" to protect us from spam, I was wondering if the term was named after Alan Turing, considered the father of modern computer science.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Turing

A favorite author of mine, Donna Andrews, has written 4 mysteries using the name Turing for an Artificial Intelligence Program that is the main character and crime-solver. They're wonderful, fascinating stories, funny and thoughtful and full of cool computer stuff. Judi, you'd probably love these!! The AIP is named "Turing Hopper". Hopper is for Grace Hopper, a computer scientist and - get this - NAVAL officer! (so there's even a Harm/JAG connection, albeit tenuous) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grace_Hopper

The books are titled: "You've Got Murder", "Click Here for Murder", "Access Denied" and "Delete All Suspects".

Check 'em out!

A little hint for those who are getting a laptop for the first time. -- Cece, 09:32:29 10/05/07 Fri [12]
I like to describe myself as an infomaniac, and a mouseophile. As such, I had no patience with the slowness of negotiating a keyboard without a mouse. I can use the touch pad, but I find it awkward after years of using a mouse on my desktop.

To me, it wasn't worth the effort. It was like using a screwdriver instead of an elecric drill. So when I got my MacBook last year, I purchase a little mouse with a chord. That presented its own problems, particularly as I am right handed and the plugins are all on the left side of the computer. I really didn't get any pleasure out of using my laptop.

Anyway, I finally bought a wonderful, small wireless mouse and I am beginning to love my Mac. There are many brands available, but the one I got is pretty metalic blue Logitech with a wireless plug in thingy that clicks conveniently onto the bottom of the mouse. It also turns the mouse off as it clicks in.

I love it and totally recommend it (or something similar) for new laptop users who don't want to go through the painful process of using keys and annoying finger pads. Oh and these mouses seem to work perfectly on any surface, even rumpled bed comforters (which I'm using as my mouse pad right now...lol.) It's also light and easy to store wherever you store your laptops.

- I wouldnt have been able to use my laptop at all if I hadnt gotten a wireless mouse. I still prefer my old unit, but the laptop is convenient., The only problem is that I have to deal with Windows Vista, and seeing that I'm not that swift when it comes to any program, its been a real challenge.

- I use my wireless mouse right on the laptop itself. The way mine is laid out, there is all sorts of space to the right and the left of the touchpad, so I use that blank, flat surface as my "mousepad".

I've been able to use my laptop easily without a mouse, when I've been a passenger in the car on a long trip. My husband dictated a bunch of letters, and I typed. However, if I'd had a wireless mouse at the time, I could have used it as it works on any surface, wobbly or smooth. Also, I simply can not draw or do any art or designs, without a mouse.

Help setting up a Yahoo email account in Entourage (part of the Office for Mac) -- Colie, 11:48:54 10/11/07 Thu [5]
I have a new MacBook (woohoo! :-)) with the student version of the Office for Mac, which includes Entourage. I have successfully set up two of my email accounts in Entourage (worked like a charm, no thanks to me since it did it all by itself, LOL). Now I tried to add another account, which is with yahoo.com, but when I verify the account settings, it keeps telling me that either my yahoo account name or my password is wrong. But I put them in correctly; I know they are right.
Has anybody encountered this particular problem, or has an idea what else I could do or try out etc.?
Thank you!

- I'm sorry Colie, I have no idea. Is there an online help line for Office for Mac? I can access my POP and Yahoo emails from my MacBook, but then I can access them from any computor. Can't you get into your Yahoo by just going to mail.yahoo.com, or am I being too simplistic? (NT) -- Cece (who perhaps, doesn't understand the question.), 10:55:43 10/12/07 Fri
  - Uhm, yes I think you are, LOL! I can regularly access my email through the yahoo site, that's not a problem, but I wanted to add it into Entourage (which is like Outlook) so I can access all my various email accounts via Entourage, pulling them off the internet and into my computer. I am just going to have to go bug the geniuses at the Genius bar!! :-D (NT) -- Colie, 13:43:06 10/12/07 Fri
- Colie, I don't use Entourage on my MacBook. When you choose the kind of email server are you selecting for Yahoo? You need to choose IMAP - not POP. IMAP is for emails that reside on the server. POP email downloads it to your computer. If that's not the problem, check out this site that steps you through the process: Click here (NT) -- judi who loves my MacBook too, 10:56:06 10/12/07 Fri

This isn't really a problem, unless you have a Mac. -- Cece, 09:32:11 10/01/07 Mon [13]
I have two PCs but my laptop is a Mac. Last week, I did a birthday post for Corinne (now at the bottom of the main page.) I forgot to close of the font tags for the large print in the greeting. However, I corrected it right away and all was well.

Later, doc (who has a Mac), did a post and commented that all the big print below gave her a headache. I looked, but it all seemed ok to me.

Some days later, I was scrolling down the board on my Mac, and found that the print below Corinne's post was huge. I tried correcting it, but to no avail. It's still big print on my Mac.

Judi explained that not all browsers are the same, and that maybe PCs are more forgiving of html errors. She also told me that when I do html on the fanfic archive website, I have to make sure I close off all the tags, for the same reason. It may look ok to me, but it might not look ok on other computers.

Have any Mac users noticed any of this or any other problems that appear that we might not see on our computers?

Just my two cents worth about my web host. -- Cece, 18:41:59 10/03/07 Wed [3]
I've been using Brinkster for the HBX Archives, collages, and videos etc, as well as a couple of personal business sites. But I am SO sick of Brinkster. In fact, this year particularly, it sucks.

I don't have much time to update the archives, so when I get the chance, I want to be able to get into Brinkster, and do the uploading, coding etc.

It's so hit and miss that I can get into the webroot. Yesterday and today, I can't get in to the site at all.

Judi is the webmistress of a couple of sites, and she called for help a couple of months ago. She got nowhere. They blamed cookies, and whatever else that to me, a PAYING customer, is totally irrelevant.

So I DON'T recommend Brinkster to anyone. I think judi is going to look around for another company. She is more than qualified to do her own research, but it would be nice to have some recommendations to throw into the mix. Does anyone have any?

Computers on tv.... -- The Chief, 10:43:34 10/01/07 Mon [5]

I was watching a movie the other night that had a guy setting up a bomb + warhead with a laptop. He was typing away like he was e-mailing his girlfriend while the image on the screen updated and changed.

We've all seen many shows and movies where someone using the computer is typing furiously at something when, in all reality, most of us would be pointing and clicking to do the same thing. I also remember Meg in "Shadow" just tapping away at that computer trying to get the password for the missle....

What I wanna know is, do the directors make the characters "type" just to make it look like they're "doing" something - is pointing and clicking BORING?

OR

When it's computer nerds, science guys, or whatever, do they really have programs that REQUIRE keyboarding and not mousing? Or maybe the nerds just ENJOY keyboarding more (I mean, they ARE nerds...)?

So what's the deal, judi?

- Chief, you can do a lot with a keyboard, but not everything. Arrow keys can take you from field to field, The little start button on your keyboard takes you to start on your screen, clicking the enter button is the same as hitting ok with the mouse; and then there are the function keys. Click here for a list of shortcuts on your keyboard. But yea, I do think they take liberties on tv to save time. (NT) -- judi, 15:43:25 10/01/07 Mon
- First, *I* really think they have characters typing furiously because it can convey urgency more than frantically moving a mouse around and clicking .... there's also the typing-sound-effects! LOL! That said, one *could* argue that it's ONE thing to be using some application to do whatever (clicking on icons) and another to be programming or RE-programming. I usually get the impression (and it's probably because to me, typing furiously suggests actually programming under pressure) that those characters workign against the clock or while a bomb is ticking and pounding on the key board are programming trying to get fix or change whatever and so typing is what they'd be doing rather than "mousing". (NT) -- MichelleB (former nerdy programmer), 18:07:44 10/01/07 Mon
- I'm sure it's all whatever has the most effect. It's like when they used to show people driving, they'd show the driver moving the steering wheel back and forth to give the impression of driving.

Internet Connection Problem & Questions -- Sunny, 10:20:09 09/28/07 Fri [4]
I have one PC tower at home, connected to DSL via a modem supplied by my provider. The connection developed trouble the other night. All my usual diagnostics, restarts and fixes did not work. In talking to tech support, who altho being Indian actually DID seem to know his stuff, he walked me all through reconfiguring my local driver, turning off my network driver (with no network, why did I have one - no clue; probably from a previous tech support call 2 years ago). Everything worked great,got right back up on the net, faster than the connections I'd become accustomed to. He had me put a shortcut on my desktop, linking to the new configuration.
Alas, when I went on this AM, that shortcut took me to a DIAL-UP configuration, which rather defeats the purpose of DSL ! I tried going into the control panel and checking out my internet connections. No joy there in finding a problem, but PC prompts me that I do not have an internet connection, unless I designate the dial-up choice. What the heck is going on ???
Any and all help would be most appreciated. And no, I have no idea where the CD for the original driver is anymore. Otherwise I would have already deleted and reinstalled that driver. Sigh....

- Hi Sunny, is your DSL modem on? Does it turn off when you turn off your computer? I always leave mine on. And if you have a router, leave that on as well. DSL is great when it works. If that isn't the problem, try resetting your DSL modem and rebooting. (NT) -- judi not sure if this helps, 12:33:22 09/30/07 Sun

So I unplugged and disconnected my cable modem, plugged it in and connected it again, and voila! It worked. Sometimes it's the simplest things that work. (NT) -- Cece, 09:24:54 10/01/07 Mon
Print size of info from internet sites -- ED, 12:54:14 09/08/07 Sat [12]
I know I'm probably missing something very simple, but...When I print information from a site, for example an episode list for the upcoming JAG shows for the next month, the print size is very small. How do I adjust it to a larger print size? I have no problem changing it when I am typing something, but even though I've tried several things, I obviously have not tried the right thing. This happens when I am on IE as well as AOL. The print sized used to be larger, so I know it's possible to adjust it. Thanks in advance for any help.

In the process, I actually learned how to open my tower that contains the hard drive, disconnect the sound card, reattach all the wires correctly (including correcting the Dell supposed specialists) and, admittedly with their help, got music and my JAG videos back. YEA! Apparently, my sound card got fried when we had a power outage last Saturday and it took me until today to have time to work on getting it fixed. -- TQ(who is quite amazed she can open up the tower and unplug stuff correctly with directions from India!!), 21:42:36 07/26/07 Thu [2]

I've been having this irritating problem on both my new vista laptop and my computer at work with windows 2000.

This stupid pop up keeps 'popping up' and annoying me. I can't get rid of it by hitting, escape, the x on the top of the box, or cancel - even closing the window doesn't stop it from trying to download the damn program. Once it starts downloading I can close the window again and get rid of it but it does it to me at least once a day -

HOW DO I GET RID OF THIS DAMN THING!!!!

This is sort of a computer question, I guess... -- shygirl, 20:24:18 08/24/07 Fri [1]
I'm looking to replace my PDA and I'm looking at a Palm Tungsten C. Although it's an older model that I'll probably have to buy through e-bay, I'm interested in it for the added feature of Wi-fi capability. I don't need the MP3 or phone, so a newer model isn't really of interest to me. Does anyone have the Tungsten C? Just how good is the wireless feature?

If my computer started making a loud ARRRRRRR noise every so often does that mean it's about to explode?? -- manette, 08:44:52 08/07/07 Tue [7]

- Depends on what is making the noise. If it is the Hard Drive then want to get your information backed up as soon as possible. If it is the fan then not such a big deal just an annoyance. Try and isolate from where in the PC it is making the noise. (NT) -- Hope, 09:07:40 08/07/07 Tue
  - Thanks Hope and Ronda--- my guess was that it's the fan. It seems to run way to much of the time--so that might be a bad sign too?

    - You should also try to determine what is making the noise because if it is the HD it could go at any time. (NT) -- Hope, 13:09:55 08/07/07 Tue
- It could be something as simple as a cooling fan going bad. Or it could be something much worse, like a hard drive going bad. Is there a pattern to when you hear the sound? Like when your hard drive might be working, i.e. when you open or save a file. I�d say back up your files just in case. (NT) -- JAG Junkie (Ronda)--sneaking in at work, 09:08:43 08/07/07 Tue
- Three weeks ago my computer was making a awful sound at times. When I took it in the problem turned out to be a bad driver on my sound card. Drivers are a software fix, not hardware involved. In addition, while they had it they cleaned it where the fan and heatsink are. I got it back within a couple of hours. Back up your files and take it in, it could be something simple.

SCANNING -- ED, 16:51:54 07/30/07 Mon [6]
I said I'd be asking for help again probably sooner than either one of us thought. My pinter has a scanner and I've scanned pictures into the computer and printed some of them with no problem. My new question, How do I scan material and then have it appear on the computer (I Microsoft, is that makes a difference) so it can be saved, e-mailed, or in the case of a form filled out? This is really three questions, but it started me thinking after I just saw Cindy G's post about the article in "Smoke" that was scanned and sent to her. No hurry, just curious.

Backing up information -- ED, 13:36:06 07/13/07 Fri [9]
After reading the Help note on the DJE board about losing all DJE material on the computer, I thought I'd better check out a backup.
Can anyone explain the way to back material from the computer to a disc. (I have backed up Quicken files, but their menu gives a backup choice.) Can clip, pictures, etc. be backed up? How do you get more than one clip, picture, etc. on the same disc? You've probably figured out this not a computer whiz asking here! Should I go out and buy "XP for Dummies"?

I'm finally getting my act together and reread your answer about the flash drive and hard drive. I just read the specs that came with my computer (it was built by a reputable computer store in our area that is recommonded by a lot of people in the know) and it lists a 160GB Hard Drive SATA 150 as part of the package I received when I purchased the computer. Is this what you were refering to, or do I need an additional flash drive or hard drive to insure my files aren't lost if my computer crashes, is hit by lightening, etc. that is not actually part of my computer set up?

- If you want videos, you'll need a player with a screen, BUT, if you want to try the iPod line for just music, you can get a Shuffle for $80. They're amazingly tiny and can clip to your pocket, but they hold 240 songs. You can play "in order" or "shuffle" the songs, and you can skip forward and back, but that's about it. There's no screen. My son got one for Christmas and loves it. The only thing we learned is that in order to plug it into one of the portable speaker systems (like a clock radio for iPods), the unit must have a USB port. The Shuffle doesn't have the same kind of connector that the larger Nano (is that an oxymoron? "larger Nano"?) or regular iPod.

I own a Dell Dimension 4600C (as my desktop/home computer). It's been great but there is one thing that has been driving me crazy for the last year or so - for some reason I'm having trouble with Flashplayer. I'm pretty sure it wasn't always a problem (I've had this computer for a few years now), but I'm guessing at some point my Anti-Virus software (Norton at present) is interfering with ActiveX controls or something and preventing it to download. Either that or maybe it has to do with Internet Explorer 7 that I dowloaded several months ago? Everytime I try to download Flashplayer, I get the little movie that says that you will see when it is successfully downloaded, but if I visit a site that requires Flash, I always get a message that I need to download Flashplayer! Grrrr! It's frustrating b/c I have no problem on my laptop (also a Dell). I've tried toying with the internet settings and such, but I must not be 'tweeking' the right thing b/c I've had no success yet. Any suggestions!
TIA!

Question -- Carrotts, 07:13:16 05/01/07 Tue [5]
I'm trying to control a very large Word document. I've got the dang thing formatted, even have the pictures and captions formatted correctly so that their numbers change when I move stuff around or add/delete pictures and such.

Now the question: Is there a way to link the reference I made to a particular caption to that particular caption? So that if the caption number changes that number will change as well. Am I being clear? Shoot. For instance, if I say "The world will end tomorrow as described in figure 8 below" but then need to add some pre-end of world pictures first and now the end of the world description is figure 12. Is there a way to automatically make my document change to "The world will end as described in figure 12 below"?

You'd think it wouldn't be hard to change a few references. Well now I'm up to 68 and I have to add some, and I never get to add at the end. And I have to keep it updated daily because it is on a shared workspace and some idiot will always complain if the references don't match the captions. The world can end tomorrw and that's okay - but the reference MUST match the caption. .. hate them.

I know my computer expert, judi, will be able to answer this one, but maybe other people out there would like to know the answer too.

- Cec, search your hard drive for your cookies folder. Many of the cookies tell you where they are from so you can pick which ones you want to get rid of. If you just delete all of them, it will cause you an annoyance for a while because you will have deleted the 'good' cookies too. You can delete them all by going into Tools/internet options in your IE browser and then just click on "delete cookies" You can also delete temp files there. (NT) -- judi, 12:54:57 04/17/07 Tue
- Your cookies folder can easily be found. Double click "my computer", then double click on your hard drive (usually the C drive) and you should see a folder marked "cookies". When you open that up, there they all are. Click on them once and you can see what they are for or at least the site names. I delete anything I don't know what the heck it is. Or, you can get rid of them all under "tools" (on any browser window) and "internet options", the Privacy tab and you should see cookies in there somewhere plus the option to delete them all. I do that sometimes too. (NT) -- Sarahsue--you might also try clearing your cache, also under the "tools", "internet options" on any browser window.

- Thank you judi and Sarahsue. I shall go cookie hunting tonight, and see if getting rid of them improves things. But I have to wonder why we need cookies in the first place. (NT) -- Cece, 17:53:50 04/17/07 Tue
- Hmmmm....I finally found the cookie folder, but when I clicked on it, up came a file with "index" on it. When I tried opening, it said that it was a DAT file and I needed to find something to open it with. However, it warned me that I could damage my computer. So it looks like I have to live with my cookies. (NT) -- Cece...getting hungry again., 18:04:15 04/17/07 Tue
  - Try clearing them with a web browser open. The "tools", "internet options" thing. I'm never sure if my advice will work on all OS' since I'm still getting along on Win 98se. (NT) -- Sarahsue, 06:04:13 04/18/07 Wed

  - GRABB! Cookies never stay around very long in my house, so getting rid of them is NEVER a problem! LOL (NT) -- JAG Junkie (Ronda), 17:18:00 04/23/07 Mon
