I can't open the file

I am a beginner in computers, notebooks and the more so in the utilyakh and the programs standing on them. My friend from the Czech Republic sent me the old photo edited by someone in the .pdf format and to my deepest disappointment my AcrobatReader could not open, having written such error. An error when opening this document. The file is damaged and can't be regenerated. Read to me, please, as I need to reanimate this file to see this image.

SOURCE: i have a hand written documents which is scanned

No and here's why... Java is a programming language; its purpose is to be used to create programs that do useful things, but it is not equipped to do the complex analyses required to convert images to text. What you need is an OCR "image to text" conversion software application. Java is not such an application; it is a programming language meant to be used by programmers in a "platform independent context" (usually the World Wide Web). I suggest searching Google for what you need using these keyword strings: OCR image-to-text software. OCR stands for Optical Character Recognition.

Note that performing OCR on handwritten text is particularly difficult because it is so non-uniform (irregular). Here is a link that may be helpful in your quest for what is on its face at least by the way you asked, a very difficult process: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Office-tools/Other-Office-Tools/OCR-Image-to-Text-Conversion-Tool.shtml.

As one of my best programming professors (who taught me Java) used to say, "Yes, anything is possible in creating a computer program, but only if you have enough what? Skills, money and time to get the job done! Don't forget: time is money, so you know, don't bite off more than you can chew."

SOURCE: Cannot open any word documents, pdfs, photos etc.

Hi angela_sing
You can open your word documents, but not the ones sent by others, and you say you could open them before.
Well, I think the person(s) who sent the word documents before have upgraded to Word 2007. An earlier version will have difficulty in reading newer versions, so requires conversion. First of all, please check with the people who send you the word documents before you reinstall the O/S
Regarding photos, normally you would click on them and they open. But if a photo does not open in this manner, try the following:
Rifht click on the name of the file - you get a popup menu - instead of clicking on OPEN, you click on the OPEN WITH, Now a list of programs will appear which may be able to open your photo. Try each one of them, am pretty sure you will be lucky.
The same method can be used for your Word file as well.
Wish you all luck.
If this solution help you, please give a rating.

How to completely erase everything without a secondary key

Wipe it really clean? Like erase Windows and everything?

Do you have the original disks that came with the computer? If you boot from a Windows installation disk, then you can reformat (wipe) the disk before you install. That's a nice clean install. If you want to go a step further, you could repartition the drive with fdisk, then format it.

If you're looking to keep windows, but erase all the programs and files, that's more tedious. Open Control Panel, go to Programs & Features. You'll see a list of installed programs. You can double-click on a program to uninstall it.

To get rid of files, I would suggest creating a new User account for yourself, give yourself Administrator permissions, and then delete your friends account. Then you can look in the Users folder, and if you see your friend's account on a folder, delete it.

Cannot open any programs, keeps asking "chose

Hi,

Good day. Your correct my friend. Usually if a program that is usually used in a computer then suddenly uninstall, all files that uses that program will show that message your getting because your computer cannot open them . What you need to do is to install the program or software again. For example, if your downloading a file in pdf you need to download adobe reader or if you are download a video file you need to download and install the player like mediaplayer, divx. You just need to make sure what type of file your downloading and you can select the option to check the internet for softwares that can run this file. Hope this information help you a bit. Have a great day

I have problem opening the photos from a friend in picassa

Hello

This problem can be resolved by opening the "Control panel" and selecting "All Profiles" under the "Color Management" file. Add the "sRGBIEC61966-2.1" profile to the "ICC Profiles."

Make sure that the digital photo file that you're trying to access isn't open or in use by another program on your computer. Oftentimes, two programs can't access the data contained within a file at the same time. If your photo is already open in another program, for example, you wouldn't be able to open it in your digital photo viewer/file manager.

Make sure that the file format of the digital file you're trying to open will actually work with the file manager you're trying to use. Not all programs are going to be able to open every file type. There are dozens of different photo files types in existence. Look at the photo file's extension and then look in the instruction manual that came with your file manager to determine if that program can read that particular type of file.

Reinstall your digital photo viewer file manager utility. If you purchased your program in a store, insert the CD-ROM you used to originally install it into your computer and select "Repair" when its setup program automatically opens. If you installed your digital photo viewer file manager utility from a computer file you obtained on the Internet, execute the original installation file and select "Repair" to reinstall your program on your computer.

Make sure you have the latest version of your digital photo viewer file manager. Programs are often updated by their original manufacturers to fix errors and issues that users have been known to have. Open your program and click on the "Help" tab. Look for an option that reads something like "Update" or "Check for Updates" and select it to connect to the Internet and make sure that you have the latest version of the program installed on your machine.

Conversion from old software to new

Are the letter PS stand for PhotoShop or PrintShop? I guess they stand for PrintShop, which is a amateur page layout program. The file format for this kind of programs is proprietary, which means, you cannot safely convert to another format, like in industry standard programs. If you have the program installed, I may suggest three paths:
1) Copy the pages ONE by ONE and paste in another program like MS Publisher, Adobe PageMaker, Quark, InDesign.
2) Convert the whole document to PDF, using one of several free utilities available on the internet. PDF is the de facto standard, and can be read in ANY computer, regardless of the operating system.
Once in PDF format, it can be transferable to any other page layout program.
3) If the program has the capability of saving the book in HTML format (the one used by web pages) you can save in this format to further work in any page layout program.

Can't open mp4 file

Hi dinshan,
The easiest solution is to install a program called VLC media player.  This is a program similar to winamp, or windows media player, except that it has additional support for other media file types like .mp4
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
Download the correct version for your operating system, follow the install guidelines, then run the program and open the mp4 file saved on your harddrive.
Thanks, and don't forget to vote/rate.

Beginner

MSCONFIG allows you to stop programs from starting up when you boot up your computer to windows. This is good cause it will allow your computer to run quicker and more efficient cause less memory will be used. Virus protection is important cause it protects your files and Operating System from corrupting on you due to infections from spyware, malware, trojans, viruses, etc. A good free one if you don't have Mcafee or Norton is AVG and its free on the internet from: free.avg.com

Everybody has different opinions on what anti-virus program is good so decide for yourself which way you want to go. Hope this helps.
