Problem with Themes

Wednesday, July 21, 2004 by kondorman | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Anyone else out there have a problem with downloading and applying some new themes/suites? I can only download & apply maybe 45% of the ones offered. Sometimes when I try to do so, I click on APPLY and all of the options become unchecked and the suite isn't applied. When I try a second time, none of the options are listed at all.

I'm running WinXP and the lastest Stardock Central, with v 4.7 of Themes Manager.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Whoops... sorry, that should be Theme Manager 2.10.026.

OK...are you applying the Suites thru Display Properties or Theme Manager?

I'm applying them through the Theme Manager.

Load one thru Display Properties and see what happens. Make sure you hit the 'Theme Manager' tab under 'Suites' tab and click on settings. Check everything that pertains to your setup including coping files and download from Internet. Watch that the Suites do not include skins for Stardock apps you do not have installed. Let me know what it does.

OK - I went through the Display Props and ed settings. I checked off pretty much everything, but unchecked the option in the Advanced settings to delete the file on a cancelled download.

I then through the Display Props went to the Suites tab and tried to apply the Dragonism theme and the Junglesuite theme. Both showed windows with no options available to download.

Dragonism I couldn't even find (but that could be me). The Jungle Suite you have to un-zip first. Do that and try that suite again......

OK...I found Dragonism. It's a bit old, but disable DX and Media Player in it and try it again
