Woke Up Early Today

Hey guys. Wanted to share a story with you.

I have sleep apnea, among other health problems, and due to diabetes and dry mouth, I can't wear my BIPAP.

So, after a good rest for the first few hours, I wake every 30 minutes or so, due to the sleep apnea.

Hence, I sleep late.

 

Not today. Today I get a frantic call, on the answering machine because I don't keep a phone in my bedroom.

My Mother in Law across the street left a message that sounded somewhat, oh, let'...

Hey you!

Application Exclusion Problem

I've been using WindowBlinds for years but I've just run into an unusual problem. I recently installed new networking hardware which came with a software GUI for configuring network settings. But that software crashed every time I tried to run it, with the problem file indicated as being a Visual C++ component responsible for the GUI. After no small amount of work I traced the problem to WindowBlinds.

If WindowBlinds is not run at startup, and I run the networking software, it works. ...

Feature Request

I would like an option to mirror a dock onto multiple displays. As it stands, I have to create a second dock and it always crams on top of the primary dock if I disable my secondary display. 

 

This dock would have to gain / lose focus and animate independent of the primary display dock as well, but synchronize tiles / shortcuts.

Got an email indicating Windowblinds 8 Beta was available, so I downloaded it and tried to install it.

It opened a box asking me for my email address and password -- which I provided, but then I got an error message saying it couldn't connect to the Internet!

The task bar clearly showed the icon for network connection, so I opened IE 10 -- and confirmed I could connect to this site.

I was able to work around this by providing the serial number (which I got from my profile on this si...

Turn off auto arrange of icons within fence on Fences Pro

Just upgraded to fences pro in order to have the ability to arrange icons within a fence.     It appeared on your fences page that this was one of the benefits of the getting the upgraded version.

However, it looks like there is no way to do this, and I am forced to use one of the default windows sort options inside the fence.   Is this correct?

Quoting from the product description on your product page:  "Sort icons in fences by date, type, size, name, ti...

Microsoft Surface Pro For Music & Photo/Video Editing?

$

My laptop's video card died a few days ago so I went looking for a replacement. I was thinking of getting another gaming laptop but am enamored with the idea of something slim and sleek. The Microsoft Surface Pro really called out to me. There are two concerns: the tiny hard drive means I'll need an external harddrive hooked up often and the screen isn't even 11 inches.

So I plan on using my new laptop for music and photo/video editing mostly but I do enjoy games occasionally. Doe...

Image re-sizing in PhotoShop - big problem here.

$

Sometimes I need to use PhotoShop to skew or add perspective to an image. The problem is that sometimes it causes the image to be too large for the canvas, thus the image gets cut off. So my natural inclination would be to enlarge the canvas so as to accomodate the new dimensions of the image. But herin lies the problem, when I do that, then save the image (usually as a PNG ) it is much smaller than the original, and no matter how much I go back in and try to change the image size, it still save...

I'm sure this has been reported/discussed, but I can't find it.

 

I have Fences running on Windows 8. I cannot move icons within a fence, to or from a fence, all icons seem to be locked.

I can go to the Desktop Directory and move the icons.

But as far as dragging an icon within a fence, can't do it.

Start button doesn't work

When Windowblinds 8 is off the start button opens xp style with all programs on the left and customized categories on the right. The shut down button with options is on the bottom right. Whe Windowblinds 8 is on the whole right panel including the shut down button disappears. This happened with the several skins I tried. I'm keeping it off since this is beta and I assume this will be corrected with a later version.

netflix movies on PC

I have been watching various shows on netflix via the web for over a year. Until recently, never had a problem. However, about a month ago, it got very laggy (stopping and buffering every two minutes, or more often...) especially in the evening. Cold reboot does not help. Is this because web activity goes up in the eve (east coast time)? Other things seem OK with PC. Any suggestions to get better viewing (reduce elim lag). Use Firefox - updated. Thx...

I have been testing a lot of Win 8 PC's lately and I always install Start8 and when I format and reinstall Windows I thought it would have known I had already activated Start8 previously, but it now says I have activated it too many times, can I have it reset?

Thanks

Make Windows 8 function like Windows 7 but with the improvements of Windows 8

As a tablet OS, Windows 8 is pretty decent.  I don’t have a problem with the Start screen in theory.  But I spend 8+ hours a day in front of a PC doing real work and that means using a desktop OS.

Windows 8 includes the desktop but it relegates that to being a program you run from the Start screen.  What we really want is to get the good stuff in Windows 8 (faster performance, new Modern app support, etc.) without the negatives.  That’s where Object Desktop comes in!
