HOW TO UPDATE OFFLINE ADDRESS BOOK (AOB) IN OUTLOOK 2007?

Scenario: My work computer is setup with Microsoft Outlook 2007 and is getting it's contact list from the Exchange server. Unfortunately, after the administrator added new contact and you search their names on your contact list (the folder set by the server or your Offline Address Book), it is not updated yet. Here is the solution:

1. Open Oulook 2007
2. Click on the arrow down beside Send/Receive button
3. Click on Download Address Book
4. The Oflfine Address Book dialogue box will be opened
5. Make sure to select the folder to where the lists are saved then OK.
6. Close Outlook then restart it.
It might take 5-10 minutes but it's worth the wait.
FYI: The reason you're not updated yet compared to other computers is because of different time frames specified on individual's outlook and so with the server too.

How to Uninstall Norton 7,8,9,10 but you need to type the password?

I had this client that when I'm uninstalling the Norton software from the pc, it is asking me to type the password that I don't know. Checking the net, (thanks to you...) this password is usually from a network drive / server (if the computer is part of an organization in an office setting). Getting into the registry will definitely uninstall the Norton after changing the value of "UseVPUninstallPassword" from 1 to zero. Here is the step:
1. Go to Start, Run, type regedit
2. Click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
3. Next on SOFTWARE
4. Go to INTEL
5. Then on LANDesk
6. Followed by VirusProtect6
7. Click on CurrentVersion8. Then on AdministratorOnly
9. Highlight Security then on the right side look for the item UseVPUninstallPassword.
10. Double click then change the value from 1 to 0.
11. Apply then restart the computer.
12. Go back to Add/remove programs, then uninstall Norton. It won't ask for passwords anymore.
My problem was I didn't notice that below UseVPUninstallPassword, there is similar in text that reads like VPUinstallPassword. That's what I changed the value of 0 from a very long number, though it didn't affect the uninstallation of Norton after figuring out I made a mistake!

How to remove ctrl-alt-del during startup in XP?

Without removing the hard drive from the laptop to backup whatever my client has on his pc, I was able to go through the Administrator account and disable the dialogue box that's coming every time the pc restart: Press Ctrl-Alt-Del to log on! (I'm planning to reload the OS after I backed up all the files, but no need).
1. I went to safe mode by pressing F8 and without any minute, the dialogue box came out again. Whatever username there is, remove that and change it to "Administrator", if you know the password of that account, type that in, but on this case I'm working with, I don't know. So I didn't put anything on the password. Click OK, then I was able to enter the desktop screen.
2. From there, go to Control Panel, User Account. Go to Advanced tab then remove the tick for Require users to press Ctrl-Alt-Delete. Click Apply then Ok.
3. If you want to remove the password for every user account, do so, remove the password, or change the password and write it down.
4. Restart the computer. You shouldn't see the dialogue box again.
5. There is another way in removing this box, but you have to go to the registry to disable it.

Increase income using payperpost

My Payperpost generated blogging income for like $40 (paid through paypal) on my other blog which had a page rank of 2. Believe me, it took time for my blog to gain the page rank. Moving forward, this PayPerPost v4.0 has a new face, new opportunities, lets say better opportunities from the previous Hire Me Direct (though I decline some of the opportunities coz they are simply out of topic from your computer hero! I ended up having only 1 opportunity approved (for the meantime). I plan on expanding my blog, meaning to create a new blog not from blogspot anymore but from other free sites that gives freedom in editing the html page just like blogspot. Not because of any negative thing that I encounter with blogspot, but simply I wanted to try some other fields. Blogspot is great when it comes to editing what you want your site to be, but from previous payperpost, mostly they exclude posties from blogspot. Surfing or blogging from a new domain excites me for the newest PayPerPost!

Windows cannot access \\.psf\Home\Desktop error message

Scenario: MacbookPro, Leopard (10.5), parallels dekstop installed, windows 7 installed. Windows were updated, same is true with other software in Mac, but you still have the error message.
The workaround for this is:

3) Uninstall the Parallels Dekstop from where? From Windows Control Panel.
4) Then install Parallel Tools back from 'Virtual machine' on the menu bar of Parallels Desktop.
5)Close virtual machine then restart Mac, after shutting down on Windows 7.
6)Start Parallels Desktop and the virtual machine then navigate to option 'Configure' and choose Smart Guard then check the option 'Enabled' and choose OK.
Shut down Windows and Mac, then see if the problem occurs.

How to activate windows 7 by phone

I have the genuine cd, I installed the windows7 in parallel with Mac, but unfortunately, through the internet when I'm activating it, it says it cannot proceed, either I need to type a new product key or purchase a new one.
There is an option to activate it through phone by dialing 800-4089 (in UAE) but this option is not coming out. So how can I use the phone to activate it, since through the net, it is not working? Here is the solution.

Click Start, go to Run, then type this: slui.exe 4

then press the Enter key. You will notice that a dialog box will be opened for you to activate the windows through telephone. All you need to do is to select your location then dial the toll free number.

How to disable checkdisk during startup on Vista OS

CHKDSK is short for check disk. On Windows operating systems, it is used for checking bad sectors or faults on the hard drive. My question is: is it necessary every time I restart my computer? No. This is what I did on one of my client's computer after seeing the chkdsk every time I restart the pc, to my annoyance:

1. Go to Pearl button, type regedit then press the Enter key.
2. Click the arrow before HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
3. Do the same for SYSTEM
4. Then on CurrentControlSet
5. Next on Control
6. Highlight on Session Manager
7. Double click on the name BootExecutive on the right pane
8. Add /k.C before * so it will look like autocheck autochk /k.C*
9. Click OK, then restart your computer

Toggle view between LCD to external monitor on Mac systems

I have this client that his PowerBook G4 mac computer has a very dim light after dropping. Checking the computer further, I found out it has something to do with the LCD screen and a replacement needs to be done. The workaround for this problem, if he don't want to replace the LCD is to connect the computer to an external monitor. How do you do that? To set the view on the external monitor, for newer systems, when booting up, press

Command + F1, press for 2 or more seconds,

until the view toggles from the LCD to the external monitor. For some systems, all you need to do is to press on

F7 hold it down while powering on.

Downloadable torrent files, where?

Let me start by informing you what a torrent is: it is a small metadata file. What is a metadata file? It's a file that contains information about a certain data you are trying to download. It is not the data itself, take note. So why do we need it? Because without torrent files, it would be hard for you to download it directly from a source. A source is usually a website or a computer connected to the internet (using P2P connection, if I'm not mistaken) so you can access them.

On the other hand, queentorrent specializes on tv torrents, movies, games, music, software, pictures and books. They have a wide range of selection that downloading will make it easy for users and these torrents are upgraded on their database almost everyday. Some things aren't made to last forever huh! Navigate on the site and be surprised on things that you can download from there. See you there!

More with parallels desktop

Q: What is the side effect of installing a dual boot on mac?
A: Since Mac is using the boot camp, it will slow the booting and turning off processes. While with windows, it won't affect the speed of the booting process.
Q: What is the reason why there is a lag in booting up Mac OS while there's none with Windows?
A: The boot camp recognizes the Windows more than the Mac. Poor guy.
Q: What about installing the parallels desktop, what is the effect?
A: Parallels Desktop 4.0 for Mac (pls check if there are newer versions, I'm not updated) is good for opening Windows while on Mac OS. As of the moment, it is good for XP and Vista, not yet for Windows 7. Most problems I encouter while in Mac simultanuously with Windows is that some usb devices works with Mac while it won't be opened on Windows and vice versa. Others like the cd-drive also works in Windows but not on Mac and vice versa. Not unless you turn off the computer and start over again with the device connected to it, hope it works.

How to remove the startup items in Mac

In Mac, they are called Login Items. Like Windows, these items are bugging you off every time the computer starts. To turn these items off, click on

Apple icon, System Preferences, Accounts, highlight your account name, Login Items (located on the right pane).

From there, you can hide the services that are coming out every time you restart the computer by merely ticking on the boxes. If you have other account names listed, check it out too coz this will have an effect only on the account that is highlighted.

Check at the bottom of the right pane, there are "+" and "-" symbols. Even without checking the hide option next to an application you want to delete, by merely highlighting it then clicking on the "-" negative sign, it will be removed from the list. Same is true with the positive sign, if you want an application to be included during startup, click this then the application folder will be displayed so you can highlight your choice then click on Add.

How to turn off Voice Over in Mac?

I find it nuisance for the application that's called VOICE OVER in Mac. Accidentally I turned it on while playing with the machine, and I find it hard to turn off! It's too noisy for me and it's becoming redundant coz I can read what I'm pointing at and know what it means, and I don't need some kind of a translator and remind me what the icon of the window or whatever it is. Finally by pressing

cmd + F5 or

fn + cmd + F5

you can turn it off. Very simple dude yet I'm freaking out when I didn't know how to turn it off, hahaha!

Dual Boot on Mac

The world of Mac is becoming bigger every time I experience something new on it. I'm a windows user ayt. This post is as simple as

HOW CAN YOU LOG IN TO WINDOWS USING DUAL BOOT ON MAC MACHINE?

The answer is very simple. Turn the computer off. Press the power button ON, then immediately press and hold the ALT key. 2 options will be displayed, one is the hard drive for your Mac, the other is your Windows. Select your Windows and there you go! If you want to switch to Mac, turn the computer off again then repeat the process. HOW DO YOU INSTALL THE WINDOWS ON A MAC COMPUTER? This topic will soon rise here (got no time yet, I'm in the office).

That is what I hate about dual boot on Mac systems. You have to turn the computer off before you can go to the other operating system. Though Mac introduces PARALLELS DESKTOP as an option to transfer from one operating system to another, I saw problems when using it. Discussion on Parallels Desktop will come sooner.

PDF searching for eBooks

My aunt is hippy type of gurl that likes to read a lot. No, she isn’t the stereotyped reader that uses bulking books? Think again. She is using an electonic book reader, or most commonly used e-book. She’s always on a look out for new titles and new books from her favourite authors. One day she asked me to type “search pdf” on a search engine to download her book since she don’t have a laptop. Unfortunately it took me almost the whole day searching for the right place to download what she wanted in an utmost speed! Good thing that this site I found and used their services to download her thing! Definitely she said to add this site to my favorites as she needed to download more stuff the second, the third, even the nth time around.

THUNDERBIRD'S WINGS

I recently have lots of customers who have outlook problems, like freezing or not responding.
Checking their system, they have a lot of emails that the outlook can handle, they have limited space to save their files on the hard drive, they have 1GB ram on a vista operating system, they have McAfee enabled that tremendously slows the PC down when it comes to its processes, they have viruses or spywares, the hard drive contains clutters from uninstalled software or from internet activities, an email has attachments like autocad drawings, and so forth.

I can't blame these people if they don't want to upgrade their system, all I can do is delete all those clutters, try to work the outlook on safe mode, disable all startup items and non-microsoft services from msconfig, scan the system with antivirus or antispyware, then restart the computer.

If for some reasons, that won't make the outlook work, try another email client like THUNDERBIRD. I did and it functions like no other way an outlook can. Kudos!

ATA TO AHCI

On Dell computers, when I tried to upgrade the hard drive from 60GB to 160GB for Dell Latitude d360, there is a split of a second display of bluescreen (BSOD-Blue screen of death) then the computer restarts.
The operating system that I used during this installation is a company burned-cd that has files (*.tib) or an image file of the whole computer. They also have a boot disk and during the first step of installation, it asks for that specific file (located on a second cd). And so the installation went through until the Windows XP is showing then it continuously restart by itself.
I thought that there might be a problem with the cd or the capacity of the hard drive might be too much to handle, until an IT manager was contacted and advised me to just check the BIOS\Devices\SATA operation. The highlighted choice was ATA, he said to move it to AHCI.
And so I did, then I restarted the computer and there it went through. Tata!

How to connect ADSL router to ADSL phone and a computer

Is that possible?

SCENARIO 1: ADSL Router + ADSL Phone + more than 1 computer (wired or wireless)
1. Connect a POTS splitter to the ADSL port on the wall jack. On the splitter, an indicator for phone and internet is inscribed. So connect your ADSL phone to the "phone" port on the splitter (ADSL port also), then connect a cable from "internet" port to the router's LAN port (ADSL port). From the numbered 1-4 ethernet ports at the back of your router, you can add ethernet cables or RJ45 to 4 computers. And if the router was configured for wireless, you can add wireless devices too.

SCENARIO 2: broadband router + broadband phone + more than 1 computers
1. the broadband router should have it's own ethernet cable or RJ45 connected to the ethernet port on the wall. 4 wired computers can now be connected using an ethernet cable to the router.
2. the phone cannot be connected using an ethernet cable to the broadband router that is connected to the ethernet port on the wall jack, then the wired computer connected to the phone: impossible.
3. the broadband phone should have it's own ethernet port on the wall jack.

SCENARIO 3: phone + 1 computer
1. from the wall jack, use an ethernet cable then directly connect it to the broadband phone.
2. connect another ethernet cable from the phone going to the ethernet port of the computer.

The scenarios given above has a prerequisite of the router configured for wireless or wired internet connection, and the ports on the wall jack has its own IP addresses (like in an office setting). I'm confused as well, on these scenarios, hehehe.

How to remove Etisalat's "registration" application in blackberry?

The software that you can download from an SMS sent by Etisalat is named "Registration". The software tends to provide upgrades and to improve performance of the phone, as what was described by the biggest telecomms provider in the UAE. Unfortunately, this is not a RIM-authorized service, and so they (RIM) created this solution so that the software will be removed from your blackberry so that your phones will not send out messages into the server without you knowing it. RIM's solutions to blackberry phones are not sent out through messages but rather can be downloaded from blackberry site, FYI. Further FYI, RIM is a company that provides sky-rocketing solutions for wireless mobility applications and the like.
1. Using your blackberry phones, go to http://blackberry.com/registrationappremover and install the software.
2. Using your computer, install the registration app remover.
3. Follow on screen instructions.

From being an intelligent freaky person down to novice computer user, the good site will give you an update, different tricks, useful tips and easy how-to’s in building the site that you dreamt of. There is no reason for you to think otherwise because the site is free,!!! the most acceptable, finance-free word that this world can to the richest man down to poorest. Before you decide to bring the site into existence, check their new and archived articles for questions unanswered. Not only you can get information from their editorials, but they can be contacted with technical support all through out the day, in a 2NE4-seven format! Last 2008, on the Year of the Rat, the site obtained numerous awards that they can boast of.

Sharing a picture equals $

Recently I found out about a site that you can store unlimited pictures into their server, without any questions (of course, mind your manners when posting your desired pictures)! The fact that its unlimited, you can create lots of albums from it, and you can share them to your family and friends online, without sending them an email with lots of picture attachment that sometimes infects your friend's computer when they open your email attachments due to a virus! Adding to that, you can earn money online, well it's a bonus after the unlimited storage. So why not check the site and decide if you want to create albums from shareapic. Most public galleries that I've checked everyday are photos from hollywood taken by paparazzi. It's time to change that habit. Also, if you have a picture blog, you can paste your picture from shareapic to your own blog, as this is one of its features. Try now!

Using hotspot shield and skype

In Dubai, UAE, Skype is blocked. The reason is while Skype is giving its services to the mass for free, telecommunication companies look at the Skype's services as a threat to their business, financially. How to combat this?
First, hotspot shield is a software like YM of yahoo, that you can call to either 1. a computer that has skype installed and 2. to a phone of any location. The term skype-to-skype is used when communicating using a computer, and skype-to-phone when a computer tries to communicate to a phone. There is also phones like Blackberry that you can install Skype with and call other Blackberry phones to communicate with, cool huh as long as the other party has Skype in it too!
As I've said, in UAE, lots of site are being blocked, especially not-so-childly-like sites, including the hotspot shield. Hotspot shield is needed when you install Skype into your computer but can't do skype-to-phone or skype-to-skype.
To install hotspot shield, you need to use another proxy server, like ultra surf. After the installation of hotspot shield, connect it to net before using your Skype. Your skype must have credit so you can do both.
PROBLEMS:
1. If for some reasons, after downloading the software hotspot shield but its not running, go to system configuration utility window, go to services tab, hide all microsoft services then disable everything. In Startup tab, disable everything too. Restart the computer, then run the installer of hotspotshield again.

Checklist for Virus/Spyware Removal

Here are the top to notch lists if your computer is seen with virus or spyware.

1. Back up the system on a separate storage device (an external harddrive will do)
2. With the infected PC, start into Safe mode with Networking, as some viruses can only be removed in safe mode. To perform this, restart pc and wait until the manufacturer's logo is displayed, then press F8 continuously until Advanced Boot Options window will come out.
3. Turn off System Restore by going to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore.
4. Go to Add/Remove Programs from Control Panel to uninstall any unwanted/unverified software and other applications that you think is suspected.
5. Install a licensed antivirus software, run then update it on the suspected pc.
6. Install Spybot search and destroy or Superantispyware into the infected pc, run then update. You can use softwares like Spysweeper from Webroot Software, Microsoft Anti-spyware, eTrustPest Control, or Ad-aware from Lavasoft. Make sure to run and update them on the infected system.
7. Make sure you are connected to net while performing these steps. If you cannot go to internet, run LSPfix (a free utility from cexx.org) to repair Winsock 2 settings. Perform another using your licensed software.
8. Turn on system restore.
9. Download all critical or windows update.
10. Disable unnecessary startup items from Start > Run > type msconfig > Startup tab > then uncheck the items that needs no running everytime the pc starts. All items that doesn't start with C:\windows or C:\ProgramFiles or the licensed antivirus, uncheck them. Unchecking them somehow will make the computer faster in booting up.
11. Run disk clean up and diskdefrag from Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools
12. Back up the system again and destroy the previous backup since the first system backup is infected with virus.

Make a long website short

There is a quick tool for you to use in making a website short. This is a very useful tool especially if you are on the phone (as a technical support guy or as an agent) and always giving out website addresses to your clients phonetically.

An example of this is this website: it would be very hard to spell this to your customer,

http://download.cnet.com/1770-20_4-0.html?query=Hotspot+Shie
ld&tag=404&searchtype=downloads


but when you used this website, http://tinyurl.com, you can make it shorter, into this

http://tinyurl.com/neyhga

Both URLS will open the same webpage. And you can write it on the address bar shorter.

Vipre Antivirus plus Antispyware rolled in one!

I was so excited about telling you this new Antivirus Software that I was browsing over the internet. For the greatest part, you can download this both antivirus and antispyware-in-1 for a trial period of 15 days! It is up-to-date, user-friendly and easy to understand especially its graphical interface. I’ve used Nor*&n and Mc@$^&e with license and not (means free) but for some reasons, I am not contented with the results these two software is giving me. That’s why I kept on looking and trying for new software to kill viruses, spywares, malwares, worm and whatsoever bugz from my pc and found out that this is a hit for me. Try it yourself so you know what I’m talking about. We always wanted to get the freshest and the latest of news, information and technology, aren’t we, so don’t be left out! There’s no harm in trying. At the end of the day, it’s up to you to keep it or throw it away; at least you have a clearer conscience that you tried it for some reasons. Yeah right, to my astonishment I forget to mention the name of the software: VIPRE AV+AS! Peace out.

Where to locate .pst files on your harddrive

Premise:

1. Your Outlook should have been configured before and is working before you can find the .pst files from your hard drive

2. You should have an administrator account

3. Go to Control Panel, Folder Options, View tab, then click on “Show hidden files”, Apply then OK

4. If for some reasons when you go back to Folder Options to see if the green circle stayed on Show Hidden Files but went back to “Do not show hidden files” instead, restart the pc and check again.

5. Even if you do not perform Import/Export option in Outlook, the .pst files can be located. If hard drive crashed and you cannot run outlook anymore inside windows, there’s still hope.

All you need to do is, click on

C:\documents and settings\user\local settings\applicationdata\microsoft\outlook\archive.pst

Or

C:\documents and settings\user\local settings\applicationdata\microsoft\outlook\outlook.pst

Sometimes outlook.pst or archive.pst is not on the same sequence of folders, you can use search if you want. There you go, you can have copies of pst files and you can import these files to another outlook if you want.

Audi and VW turbocharger

This information I’m about to tell you will induce for about 30-40% increase in your car’s power in general using more oxygen in the system. I give you 2 options to choose from: turbochargers and superchargers. When we speak of the chargers, we speak of the power it generates, ayt. What’s the difference? Turbochargers are generated through the wasted energy in the exhaust stream, so it is said to be more efficient, while the supercharger is generating power through a belt same like the power from the water pump or the alternator. The company who have these technology available in the US have international shipping as well, products like the chargers and nose covers are fully covered, whether you choose to have a newly or remanufactured part, it is you who will decide. Audi turbocharger or Volkswagen turbocharger is their main line of product. For different type of autos you can check the site for compatibilities. This will definitely give you a flash on your ride once upgrades are done on your priceless auto that the whole family will surely enjoy. Say power is nothing without control, and you have the power to control what you want with your auto.

HOW SWEET IT IS TO BE LOVED BY YOU


I never thought of the idea, and this information was brought to my attention only today, 2 years after its first release in Paris! It was introduced by MEMUP, a French manufacturer of digital products, and they named their newest (for me) yet innovative flash drive “Sweet”. It ranges from 1-8 GB disk space and each flash drive has its own colour and distinguished perfume. That made the difference on the market. Fruits like strawberry, lemon and orange were used as the flash’s fragrances. Don’t think that it’s because they are different from the usual trend of a flash drive, they have limited performance. They are still using the speed of USB 2.0, compatible with both Mac and Windows operating systems, and above all, it has a security feature via a password lock system. Cool and promising. Now I know. Thanks to the source.

Webhostinggeeks a must


If you wanted to create a webpage of your own, and looking for a great webhosting site, you are in the right place. You can choose from any of the top 10 best web hosting available in the World Wide Web. From the list, you can check the customer’s review of the desired web, so from that point you can check if the site is doing what it should and must do: to satisfy it’s intended customer. You can have the latest updates and the latest tips also on how to use the services. The site’s the best ecommerce hosting. Just like when I’m new to blogging world, I wasn’t able to select what was the best (anyway I’m happy with what I started with). The site has their own blog too for your questions, and a place for meeting everyone (if you have questions, suggestions and comments, you can have it in their blog area). What I wanted the most are these features: they have the webmaster reviews, customer reviews, real metrics reviews, and they offer the cheapest plans ever in webhosting. Interaction between the site and you is as quick as calling someone because of the online support. It is tried and tested since 2004.
