    Google Home Page Display Error

    Believe it or not, it turned out to be a problem with the "Theme" I was using on the iGoogle home page ... once I changed the theme, all seemed to work correctly. Thank you to all who replied with suggestions. <m> ---------------------------------------------------------------- Always...

    Google Home Page Display Error

    Hi all: I'm using Windows 7 Pro 32-bit and Internet Explorer 9. All of a sudden, my Google home page chat section has not been displaying properly (although sometimes, it miraculously works again, but most doesn't). Closing IE9 and re-opening doesn't fix it either. Does anyone have any idea...

    Word 2010 and new network file location

    There really isn't an error message ... only "Connecting to <old network location> ... Hit <Esc> to cancel" Then, hitting <Esc> opens the document. However, if we double click the Word file from the new server location, the Word splash screen shows with the same message above, without the...

    Word 2010 and new network file location

    Hopefully, someone has experienced this and found a solution: We recently relocated Word documents from a network drive to another location on a shared server. Although there is no problem accessing the new folders, it appears that new Windows 7 machines with Office 2010 cannot easily open...

    Connecting IDE CD/DVD Combo with 2 Sata Devices

    Did you try setting the jumper on the drive to CS (Cable Select)? Although I agree with the 80 wire cable as a possibility, give the CS setting a shot. One of the jumper combos should be marked CS - jump those pins to put it in Cable Select mode...

    Cross Platform (OS X to Vista) printing

    No help there - already have printer sharing set up on the PC ... enabling LPD printer services on the Vista machine allows my Mac to "see" the printer connected to the Vista machine, however I have no way of "installing" the exact printer model I have. I tried connecting the printer directly...

    Cross Platform (OS X to Vista) printing

    Marcus - Thanks for your response. However, I already have the printer driver for this printer. My problem is that when the driver and printer setup utility is "installed", it is expecting the printer to be directly connected to the mac, and thus will not install because it does not find the...

    I have a Canon USB printer connected to my Windows Vista machine (Vista Home Premium. The printer is shared through Windows (my son's XP machine can see it and print to it). The problem I'm having is that my Intel iMac (running OS 10.4.10 Tiger) cannot see the shared printer. I know for a fact...
