[quote]My VISA doesn't do that, scharchuk.... I think you need to look at the terms of the debit card you use. IF your eyes can read print that small.[/quote] Or [shudder] you might need to call them and ask them specifically what one of those charges is.

I believe those are the "running indicators" to indicate which applications are currently running. To turn them off, go into the dock's settings, the "Effects" section on the left side, uncheck "Show 'running' indicators on shortcuts that are currently running'. I think you'll have to set it for each dock. [edit: once again slow, and quite possibly wrong, but I'll leave it out here just in case [e digicons]:)[/e] ]

Scratch disk - The hard disk Adobe puts its temporary swap file to use when it needs to create more memory. Similar to the Windows swap file but used exclusively by Adobe. How to define - Probably depends on the version of Adobe, on my ancient version it's menu command Edit/Preferences/PlugIns & Scratch Disks. Why put it on a lesser used disk seperate from the Windows paging file and other files/disks that get a lot of use while you're in Adobe - so the disk doe

[quote who="Zubaz" reply="19" id="2735800"] Quoting Fuzzy Logic, reply 18 The Impulse Anywhere option installs on any OS. You have a data file and an installer Correct. Impulse is not letting me use option #1 to download and archive apps that are not compatible with my current OS. That makes option #2 the only usable method,which locks your apps to your current OS. FAIL!!! Hmmm. I don't recall that . . but I believe you. What app, what OS? [/q

For XP, check your setting for the .dream filetype extension. Login with full administrator privileges. Go into Windows Explorer ( as opposed to Internet Explorer) tools/folder options/file types, select dream extension. Click the "advanced button", make sure the box is checked for "Confirm open after Download" is checked. Then after you leftclick on download it should ask you if you want to open or save the file.

Windows XPHome, XPPro32bit, XPPro64bit, Vista32bit, Vista64bit, Win7-32bit, Win7-64bit? When exactly do you get the error? Can you get rid of it by doing whatever you're doing while logged in with full admin privileges and/or running elevated (i.e., the same way you would install a program)? Might only need to do it once, looks like a directory creation is failing.

If you click on "My Account" towards the top left of this page, right underneath "Welcome sursubbu", then click on the "Registrations" tab (furthest on the right), do you see your software listed with 2 download links (one is Impulse and one is the Object Desktop exe)? Not sure if that would work after expiration but thought it would be worth a shot. Also not sure exactly when the various components of OD became Win7 compatible.

[quote]Please explain what I'm doing wrong.[/quote] Nothing, and yes you need Impulse to restore them. Note also that you are backing up the programs as they are installed on your machine. If you want clean backups, open Impulse, shift-right click on a program's icon, and select "download and archive" from the right-click menu. These will also be impulse files requiring Impulse to restore them. Note also that either of these methods are o/s specific backups.&

[quote]We're closer now than we have ever been before. The gov't in more involved in the private lives of American people and corporations now than any time before.

Ya when Bush/Cheney went in the Republicans controlled everything. People got so cranked off they voted them out. Same thing could happen to Dems this time. Short memories. [quote]pork? they all do it regardless of which side of the aisle you're on, there aren't many good politicians.[/quote] Mostly self-serving bags of advertising as far as I'm concerned.

How's that "change" working for ya? Seriously, about like the "changes" in 1988, 1992, 2000, and presumably about like the next "change" of whenever/whatever. The only changes of any significance I've ever seen in my life are when I've changed something. I know that sounds hokey but it's the truth. Screw the politicians. Just try to pick the ones that might do the least damage, and try to keep them from sucking out more taxes.

I'd suggest sending a ticket to Sales from this page https://esupport.stardock.com/index.php?_m=tickets&_a=submit Politely explain the situation to them. Maybe they could set you up with some of the previously released bonus themes or something. I don't know exactly, but surely some reasonable arrangement could be made. (I really kind of miss those bonus themes. Used to
