    Photo Thumbnails not visible

    Mark, I searched for and found Shimgvw.dll in my Window.system directory, so I guess it's there? I don't know what re-registering it means. Does that mean it could still be there but needs to be "re-registered"? If so, how does one go about doing that? Thank you for your help...yes, I seem to...

    RJ45's cat5 vs cat6

    Long answer: There is no TIA/EIA Component Specification for a Category 6 plug. There is a specification for a test plug used during de-embedded tests of components, but it is not a commercially available product and is not designed to be used in any portion of a cabling infrastructure. There...

    Photo Thumbnails not visible

    A few weeks ago, I read an article somewhere online advising the deletion of a file because of a possible security hazard. I deleted the file (because the source was a trusted one) and can't remember what file it was. However, immediately thereafter, instead of thumbnails of the photos in, for...

    Newbie. I lost my Visor. Can I Hotsync existing contacts, etc.

    The fact that the manual contains migration info is welcome news. Yes, the situation is that I last Hotsynced on 6/7/04. Lost the Visor on about 6/12/. I only have one computer, so it will be the one that I Hotsync the new device to. I have also made a backup to CD of my entire Handspring...

    Newbie. I lost my Visor. Can I Hotsync existing contacts, etc.

    I lost my Handspring Visor yesterday, and I don't think it's going to show up. If I buy a new Palm-based PDA (Zire, maybe) can I Hotsync it to the existing Palm Desktop Software that is on my computer? How do I do that? I'm not sure I remember the username that I initially used with my Desktop...

    Can you Repeat ToDos?

    I want to have a ToDo alert me to take my medicine once a day at 6 P.M. I must be a dweeb because although I go through the motions on the ToDo page, it won't repeat every day. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I use Action Names as my Contact Manager/ToDo etc, on my Visor Platinum. Thanks. Phil

    OK, What am I missing????

    When the 568 Standard was originally published in 1990, the committee that was chartered with designating the wiring configuration of jacks and plugs decided upon what is known as the T568A configuration. The T568B configuration is still considered an "option" in the Standards, and as...

    Reader Crashes Browser on Exit

    Using Reader 5.1, IE 6.00 with SP1. I send .pdf files by email often. With my new computer running XP Home, whenever I close the a .pdf file, my Browser locks for about 20 seconds and then shuts down, returning me to my Desktop. Although there is a workaround for this problem (opening the file...

    HELP..reinstalling Desktop and Synching Question

    Thanks FelixTheCat, that is a good tip, although in this case it had nothing to do with the username. I did solve my problem - I had installed conduits for MS Outlook, but I my handheld was using the built in software. When I change the conduit setting prior to synching again, everything worked...

    HELP..reinstalling Desktop and Synching Question

    My old computer finally died, I got a new one last week, so I installed Palm Desktop Software, everything went ok. However, even though I set "Handheld overwrites Desktop", none of my addresses, dates, etc. from my Visor Platinum show up on the Desktop. I know I'm doing something...

    With Thumbnails selected in View, thumbnails aren't shown in directory

    Thanks so much, that too won't work. I'm not about to mess with the Registry. Can't figure out why this all of a sudden started happening, maybe Photoshop installation did it. I tried associating files with PS but that didn't help either. I think this is unsolvable. Thanks again, you still...

    With Thumbnails selected in View, thumbnails aren't shown in directory

    Don't think that will solve this particular problem, will it? My problem is that JPEG files are not shown as thumbnails. But thanks anyway. Phil

    With Thumbnails selected in View, thumbnails aren't shown in directory

    Well, the Subject just about says it all. This used to work fine, but for the last 3 weeks it does not. I have chosen Irfanview as my default viewer (did this over 2 years ago) but the only files that are thumbnailed are .GIF and .BMP files. That's strange, come to think of it. In other...

    Windows Explorer Graphics View

    Yes, the View Menu has been set to Thumbnails. Files of .gif or .bmp extension do show up as a thumbnail, but not JPG or JPEG. Strange.

    Windows Explorer Graphics View

    Normally, when I view the contents of a Folder which contains JPEG files, the files pop up as Thumbnails. All of a sudden, they are not. I have set View/Thumbnails, and I have associated JPEG files with Irfanview. (did this over a year ago) The only thing I can think of that might cause a...
