When I click a link, Chrome sometime randomly tries to download a file. Virus? Suggestions?
It doesn't matter what page I'm on. One time it will do it, and then when I go back and try again it won't. Even clicking "back" can do it. I changed the settings so that it prompts for a save location, so now I'm constantly getting "save as" dialogs. AVG scans aren't picking anything up. I don't have any Chrome extensions enabled. Has anyone else had this problem? Any thoughts?
2 AnswersSecurity7 years agoI forgot to sign my NYS tax return. It's not due yet, so should I just sign/send another copy?
I know if I do nothing that they will send me a letter that I need to sign and send back, but I'm wondering if it's better to send the signed return, maybe with a letter explaining why they got two returns from me. Strangely for what is likely a common problem I couldn't find anything official on their help page, and it says that it could take 10 days to hear back from them by email.
2 AnswersUnited States1 decade agoWhat's the best way to get a coaxial cable to an external HDTV antenna?
Basically the question is how best to breach the outer wall. Do I just drill a hole, feed it through, and then caulk it to seal it up? Or should I install a patch panel? Is it better to drill down, get the cable into the basement and then go outside from there? Thanks for the help...
5 AnswersTVs1 decade agoHow do you import email messages from Outlook Express 6 into Outlook in Windows7?
I'm moving old email messages from OE6 on an old PC to Outlook on a new Windows7 machine. Normally you're supposed to move it to OE6 on the new machine first and then to Outlook, (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HA010943... but Windows7 doesn't have OE installed anymore. Outlook's import tool won't do anything with them either. Any ideas?
3 AnswersSoftware1 decade agoDo I have to fill out an amended tax return (1040X) even if the changes don't affect the amount of tax owed?
I took advantage of the rule that allows you to gift more than 12k in a year by considering it spread over 5 years (as long as you don't gift to them in the next 4 years). I just found out that I should have filed a form 709 (gift tax return) each year. Unfortunately TurboTax doesn't support that form, so it didn't tell me I needed it. Should I do an amended return (1040X) for that, even though it doesn't change the tax owed?
2 AnswersUnited States1 decade agoThe professional wedding photographer intentionally rotated the pictures ~30 degrees. Is that typical?
My sister's professional wedding photographer took most of the photos rotated about 30 degrees from the horizon line. I've seen that done for effect in pictures that would otherwise be too blah, but is it typically done at weddings? About 90% of the photos were done that way. In some cases it looks good, but it doesn't seem like EVERY picture should be done that way. Anyone with a similar experience? We can "fix" some by rotating with Photoshop, but you lose some of the info to cropping when you do that.
