    Outlook2013 duplicate personal folders, how to fix?

    Recently upgraded from Outlook 2003 to 2013 and now have two complete sets of personal folders. I read that to fix this I have to add new user accounts to replace the existing ones. I understand how to do that, but I do not know if the contents of my personal folders will still be accessible...

    How to upgrade from Office 2003 to Office 365 ?

    The licensing issue I am referring to is the one of non-transferability. My old 2003 has been installed on several different computers as they died off, but 2013 is a one-time shot. When this desktop becomes landfill, I won't be able to transfer it to the next computer, or so I understand...

    How to upgrade from Office 2003 to Office 365 ?

    Initially I was going to go from 2003 to 2013 on the same desktop, until I found out about the licensing situation. Is there a clear-cut way to go to 365 without losing my pst file data? If I am stuck with going to 2013 before going to 365, do I have to uninstall 2003 first?

    How to take "ownership" of files and folders?

    I have tried all sorts of solutions to take ownership of various files and folders that the designers of Win7 have determined that should be protected from incompetent owners like myself. I like Win7, but this feature really aggravates me. There are some program files that I really need to...

    new HP restored files cannot view pictures, video, music

    Brand new HP Pavilion, Win7 64bit, restored files from Carbonite, originally on a HP WinXP 32 bit. I can view all files except for My Pictures, My Music and My Videos. I get a pop up saying that I do not have permission to access these folders, even though I am using the administrator account...

    F380 eats envelopes, is there a printer that doesn't?

    My trusty (not) old F380 mangles envelopes with alarming regularity. I sometimes have to clear three jams just to get one good print. I use the self-adhesive envlopes with the peel-off strip. Is there a printer that handles those without jamming?

    HP D5000t (Vista), short cycles on start up

    At last, back to normal! Installed new power supply, and it ran, but no display. Removed/reattached all connections, pulled video card, reinserted, pulled/reinserted memory sticks, tossed some chicken bones, burnt incense, put hat on backwards, pulled pockets inside-out, stood on one foot, and...

    HP D5000t (Vista), short cycles on start up

    There's no video, which I take as being a good thing. The fans come on, whirring excitedly, then crap out after a few seconds, then it starts all over again. When I removed/replaced the RAM sticks I did not notice any bulged capacitors. I'm going to try a power supply first and hope for the best.

    HP D5000t (Vista), short cycles on start up

    PC was hibernating and did not respond when mouse was moved. In the past when this happened, I just manually powered down and restarted and all was okay. This time when I press the power button, it starts to run for a few seconds, then stops, and starts up again, repeating the cycle endlessly...

    HP D5000T desktop won't start

    This desktop is prolly three or four years old, so I figured the battery was about due. As soon as I popped the new battery in, the problem was resolved. All I had to do afterwards was reset the time and date, which is normal for any battery changeout. I did not enter BIOS, nor reset to...

    HP D5000T desktop won't start

    Thanks ... that would have been my next step, but fortunately a new battery saved the day. Usually the thing just beeps at me to let me know it's bad, but this time was weird. There may be more to this than just the battery. If any more weirdness evolves, I'll let you know.

    OE6 cannot delete emails

    That site is very helpful. I found the answer at http://www.insideoe.com/faqs/why.htm#cantdel and it turns out that all I needed to delete was the delted items folder. I managed to save all the other stuff. Phew. Back to normal!

    OE6 cannot delete emails

    This started out slowly, with just a few emails not being deletable. I tried deleting inbox.dbx, restarting Outlook Express, and the problem persisted anyway. Now it's so bad that I can't delete ANY emails, period. I'm thinking of transferring everything over to Outlook (2003) to see if I can...

    Windows Explorer bogged down, slow as mud

    Wow! So much good info ... I have run check disk and defrag, scanned with CA and Malwarebyte, cleaned the cache, sacrificed a chicken, and will try some of the fancier stuff mentioned. If and when I can fix this without a destructive recovery, I will be sure to post how I did it, or didn't.

    Windows Explorer bogged down, slow as mud

    HP Pavilion, XP Media Edition, worked great for a couple of years, but now Windows Explorer is slow as molasses. It takes forever to move a file. Everything else is working fine. How can I remove the sludge from Windows Explorer?
