  • Anyone have the knowledge to fix this?

    I want to add music from my own collection of cd's to my Samsung Galaxy 11 . I inserted a cd and followed directions to make a copy and what I got was this popup; the application has failed to start because its side by side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command- line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail. I have absolutely no idea what this means. I need someone with experience who can explain it to me in simple terms and how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated. I also googled it and the explanation given I just could not understand. Thanks!

  • Need help with these matters?

    First, when I log in I get the ask.com page, the program is not listed under the control panel. How do I get rid of it? Second, I am getting popups and plenty of them stating problems with internet service. Is there something going on I am unaware of? Last, I recently purchased a Macfee anti virus program, every now and then it pops up telling me my computer is at risk but when I click on check status, it tells me my computer is secure. What is going on with that? Need help before I throw it out the window of a 20 storey building. Thanks!

  • How do I fix these problems?

    First, sometimes when I attempt to go back to my previous page, it won't allow me. I hit the back button but nothing happens. Anyone got any ideas? Secondly, if I should happen to receive a message and on the bottom it might say 'read more', I click it and nothing happens. The same thing happens when I scroll my Facebook page and I see articles or story's posted. Again, I click on 'read more' and nothing happens. I hope someone will know a cure for this. Thanks!

  • Do I have to replace the stripping all around the door?

    The weather stripping around my front door is coming undone, not all the way around just one side. Should I replace the entire thing or just where it's coming off? What kind of materials do I need to do this? I am new to these things, this is the only way I will learn how. Thanks

  • Do I need to call in an electrician for this?

    Recently, I turned on my kitchen lights and immediately they went off. The circuit breaker was tripped and it did not reset itself, so I had to do it manually. It continues to do this whenever I turn on those lights. I figure I must have a short somewhere, is that the case? Can I fix this myself or do I need an electrician to repair it?

  • Why won't it even turn over?

    About 30 mins ago in my Dodge 1500 5.7 litre I climbed a gravel hill in 4 wd. At the top I parked it and took it out of 4wd. 20 minutes later I tried starting it and nothing happened. It did not turn over and there was no clicking. My battery connections were ok, dashlights ok, power windows worked. I tried starting it in neutral, still nothing. I hope someone can help me with this, I am in an isolated area, nearest CAA service is about 1.5 hours away. Please help.

  • What information must I be armed with to buy a computer?

    I plan on buying a new computer but I know next to nothing as to what I should know when doing such a thing. The only thing that comes to mind is what exactly I will be using it for. I plan on downloading and burning off music, tv shows and movies as well as email and sites such as Facebook. Anyone on here work at Staples? I might be purchasing there. Thanks for any help.

  • Can someone help me with transferring pictures from my camera to my computer?

    I have a Sanyo X1200 digital camera. My first attempt at transferring pictures to my computer went rather well. Since then, something has gone wrong and it won't do it anymore. I use the cable that came with the camera and hook it up to the usb port. After doing this, the camera screen lists options. 1. computer, followed by card reader, pc camera, screen capture and mtp. After choosing card reader, an audible tells me pc connection mode. At this point, I get 1 of 2 pop ups. 1 lists options on which way I want to transfer them. I select the appropriate one; upload pictures by using the microsoft scanner. The second pop up is corel photo downloader with its options listed but at the same time I get this message across the pop up saying you are not connected to the internet and this program cannot display the web page requested. If I request pc camera mode, again I get the audible; pc camera mode. The result from using this method is nothing whatsoever. I do not know what to do next before I step on the camera itself.

  • Can house inspectors be held liable in Nova Scotia ,Canada? Please list source?

    I bought a house here in Nova Scotia over 2 years ago and now I am experiencing structural damage because the footing is not up to code. Its a big job to repair; new foundation, jacked up & leveled off, etc. Several contractors have told me the same thing, house inspector should have picked up on it. I am running out of options, damage is getting worse. The temperature change in the fall of the year and the coming winter will ensure I suffer throughout the winter months.My only hope is the house inspector be held liable and repairs will then be done in time.

  • Can someone tell me what exactly is going on here? How do I correct this?

    When I tried to log in to Facebook, I was told the password does not match the same one I use to access Windows. It asked me if I wanted to change the password, I replied no. At that point, it told me I was using an incorrect password, and now I cannot access Facebook with the password I usually use. Never had anything like this happen before.I had no problems accessing Facebook only an hour prior to that, was I hacked into?
