    Refrigerator Safe for External Hard Drive Storage?

    Win 8 Laptop Computer Connects to Wi-Fi but Not to the Internet

    Hello, I have an HP Pavilion g7-2233cl Laptop running Windows 8. I bought it new (refurbished) about a year and a half ago. Until recently, I’ve had no problem connecting to the Internet via Wi-Fi. But recently, although everything says I’m connected to our home Wi-Fi and things are working...

    In Word 2007, T of C Entries Missing Where Images Were Placed

    Hello, After creating a document, I used Word 2007's Table of Contents feature to build a T of C for headings 1, 2, and 3. In the document, I had used text boxes to place some images in the document, using the text-box layout feature to wrap text to the left of the text boxes, whose...

    Any Way to Make Background Constant Across Images?

    Hi, After taking over 80 progressive photos showing an object (a model airplane) rotating (to be used in a Flash animation), I realized that the light coming through the window, which I thought was constant, was actually changing from photo to photo. My question is this: Is there any way in...

    Question About Object Alignment

    Hi, In Flash 8 Professional, I'm creating some words one letter at a time, with each graphic-symbol letter in a different frame.

    No Normal Mode in Flash MX Professional 2004?

    Hi, I've started working through Moock's book on Flash MX ActionScript. He mentions the Normal Mode. When I couldn't figure out how to activate the Normal Mode, I Googled and found a posting which said that Normal Mode was eliminated in the professional version of Flash MX 2004. Is that...

    Learn AS2 or AS3?

    Hi, I'm not a programmer, although I've done some basic programming from time to time. A few years ago, I used George Peirson's "How to Gurus" CDs to learn the basics of Flash MX. Then, about a year or so ago I started working through Franklin and Makar's book on Flash MX/ActionScript 2...

    Can Flash Be Used to Open .wmv Files in Windows Media Player?

    have access to Flash MX 2004 Professional and might be described as an "advanced beginner' in the use of ActionScript. I will be supplying a client with a dvd disc containing several .wmv video/audio files, so this is not an internet streaming application. One simple approach is to just give...

    Interface for WMV files?

    I have some WMV video files that I'd like to put on a DVD disc. Instead of having the user open the disc in Windows Explorer and click on a file name, I'd like something a bit more professional looking; namely, an interface that auto-opens when the disc is inserted, showing buttons with file...
