    Help and Support Images Not Loading

    Not sure why. I did that registry fix that someone helped me with here, but
    the images, pics do not load in the help and support app. They are red x'd,
    like a web page. I AM online.



    Thank you.

    In the Registry Editor, select this key:

    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.png

    In the right pane, the Value Name "Content Type" (no quotes) should have
    Value Data "image/png" (no quotes).

    If you don't see "Content Type", or it's data is missing or incorrect, and
    you don't wish to modify it directly, a .reg file to do this can be found
    here:

    After using the registry-fix to solve the first problem on "Help and
    Support", I encountered the same problem.
    However the registray adjustment for the pictures (PNG) did not solve this
    display problem.

    Furthermore there is also a display problem on the fonts. Most probably the
    correct CSS cannot be found as well. (if "Help and Support" uses a CSS-file
    to display the correct fonts)
    So in my case not only the pictures do not load but the fonts also display
    only in a default value, making the help and support a lot less more
    interesting.

    The first "fix" was about adjusting the correct link tot XML files. Do I now
    need another adjustment to link to the correct CSS files?

    Anybody?

    You could try this (helpcontentfix_vista.reg); the .reg file fixes the
    Content Type values for XML/XSL/PNG/JPG/CSS files.

    Yes, This download did it for me....
    Apparently the earlier used fix, never applied all corrections needed after
    installing Adobe CS3. (That was the bad program that broke the links to the
    correct files)

    So, thanks for your advice and leave this posting for anuone else who needs
    this....

    Regards, Burnardo
