Hi everyone! I just got Premiere Elements 3, after trying to use Video Wave. Video Wave almost drove me to drink, there were so many bugs I finally just removed it and gave up. I’m new to the whole video editing process and find this software very easy to use. I love this program; it runs...

I have started sending my photos via e-mail to friends as PDF files since I can send much higher quality images then I could in jpeg format. Now everyone wants to know how they can save and send their photos in PDF format. Needles to say they don't want to spring for Photoshop CS. Does anyone...

I recently bought a package from Roxio that included Media Creator 8 Deluxe, and a Dazzle DVC90. This is a USB 2 video capture device. The dazzle device is recognized but imports badly corrupted video from my VCR. After days of messing around with this device I have given up on it. I found...

I purchased my wife a Dell XPS note book for her birthday. It is the first computer we have had for her own personal use. Now she won't tie up my computer doing her school grading etc. when I need to use it for my graphic arts business. What I would like to do is get some kind of wireless...

I have a friend in his late 70s who is just now starting to use computers. Mostly just for E-Mail. His computer is an HP that has Windows ME as the operating system. My question is about the password dialog box that appears every time the computer boots. You have to select the “Cancel”...

Today my scanner suddenly started having a 1/4 inch light band vertically just off center top to bottom. A little later it shrunk to about a 1/16 inch light band. It hasn't changed since. My question is this. Is it time to get a new scanner, or is this fixable. I have to use my scanner all...

I have switched to Indesign recently and have a few things that I don’t understand. Question number one… Why does my mouse wheel sometimes scroll the page up and down and some times not? I can’t seem to find a way to start it working again once it stops. Question number two… Why do I some...

Most of the jobs I work on are a collection of unconnected pages, as is the menu I am working on now. These pages are inserted into some kind of a folder so they are really used as a spread. In PageMaker I often open 2 of them side by side by using the "Tile: command under the "Window"...

Hi After a zillion years of using PageMaker I have finally switched to InDesign and while it is going reasonably well I have one very basic question. That is how I break the link between text blocks? I have read the instructions and I can click on the link box and get the “Break Link” cursor...

I have just installed Acrobat 7 which came bundled with my new Indesign CS2. After creating a test menu page and exporting it to PDF it appeared very nicely on the screen but when I printed it out on my Epson C88 inkjet printer, the color was way off. I then opened the same file in Acrobat...

I would like to back up my new computer to the second hard drive and have a disaster recovery disk that will restore the C:\ drive in the event of a system crash. Can someone recommend a good program that is reliable and simple to use. I have a copy of Dantz Retrospect that came free with my...

I set up my computer that has two hard drives with a second Windows Installation on drive D. Now when I boot to it I get a message that says it can’t find the user profile, even though it worked yesterday. Now it opens Windows with a blank screen and the only thing that works is Task Manager...

I got my new Dell, XPS 600, and within an hour of getting it up and running it crashed with the error message "Corrupt Registry Entry". After a lot of messing around (it didn’t want to boot to the CD either, I had to start from scratch and reinstall everything to get it running again. I...

My old modem failed and I went to CompUSA and bought a Diamond SupraMax Pro modem. I installed it and had no problems until I started connecting to things. I don't have any trouble connection to my ISP (PeoplePC or to Juno) but no matter where I connect to, it disconnects within a few minutes...

I remember when there was a lot of activity on this forum. I assume that this is an indication that everyone is changing over to Indesign. I guess it is about time that I do that as well. This only reason that I haven't done so before is that I have many people that I work with that still use...
