  Check the settings on your iPhone.  Have you enabled iCloud photo library in the settings > iCloud > Photos on your iPhone?  Or "my photo stream?

  If you have iCloud library active on your and your iPhone photos sync iCloud and from there will to all your devices.

  If you do not want to synchronize on your iPhone photos, clear the iCloud photo library, but do not allow to delete photos from iCloud, or they will be removed the Mac as well.  With the removal of your iPhone, wait until all iCloud photo options have been disabled.

• Whenever I sync my calendar on Lightning, I get a message "accept changes and update in any case" on several occasions, even though the event is deleted from the server

  This repetition of message every time I sync, therefore can freeze the Thunderbird application after 3-4 syncs

  Right-click recycle the message to the next synchronization
  Left button instantly recycle the message

  Event deleted on the server, lightning and by Organizer

  Disable Google provider problem ceases, but which makes unnecessary lightning

  TBird reinstalled, updated all modules

  Tried to download the image, but no luck...

  I deleted the event to my calendar and was the Organizer to do the same thing.

  What Organizer?

  I have the latest updates from each of the three

  Once again, what are your versions of Thunderbird, Lightning and the provider add-on?

  and charging each of them...

  I mean you don't have to reinstall Thunderbird, then it was a waste of time.

  You can try to remove the calendar in lightning, restart Thunderbird, and then recreate the calendar.
  Given that the calendar is a calendar of network no data will be lost.

  That said, it is always recommended to have a recent backup of profile.

• Do I need to install the optional updates?

  I never downloaded Realtek, silverlight, powershell or windows live essentials. I need to download for future use? Thanks for any help. I have windows vista service pk2, 32-bit.

  You don't have to install optional updates. They will be there if you have a need for them in the future.

  Siliverlight will probably nag you from time to time on Web sites, you can study the Realtek with the manufacturer's website to see if you really need (but it's optional), the rest just keep them if you wish or find a need for them later you can install then.

• Vista Home Prem - problems since installation on 26 August updated - USB problems and everything deleted before the update restore points

  I have a Dell XPS 430 quad-processor. Receipt of the August 26 as update automatic updates. Since the computer was restarted after autoupdates, I have problems. Biggest problem is when I switch to another port my 4 ports KVM Trendnet TK - 407K and back on my Dell computer - the computer is blocked and the video is all garbled. My only recourse is to start the computer cold. After the first time it happened, I knew immediately updates, so I went in my restore points to restore back before the update. When I did restore bluescreened, but I was unable to capture data as computer restarted itself and get into the routine of starting fix. Difficulty of startup said it could not solve my problem.

  When I returned to restore to try to restore once again, I found that all my restore points have been removed. I found a utility called the shadow on the web Explorer and installed. He seems to find all my data restore point on the recovery D: drive, but Windows is not seeing them.  I should also mention, usb-wise, given that these updates have been applied, my Canon digital camera is not recognized when I hang it in one of the USB ports.

  Don't know what to do at this point. If I stay on the port on my computer using the KVM switch, my PC at home works well. Unfortunately, it is not realistic that I need to do my job in two laptops that are also connected to the switch.

  I'm tempted to just delete all the updates that have been installed on 8/26 to see if that helps - esp KB973879 I read on this patch causing a lot of problems with other computers.  Another thing that I have not tried is to use the restore from a command prompt application.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you!

  Learn more about Windows Update, you can use the following link: -.
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/downloads/windowsupdate/default.mspx
   
   
  You can run the System File Checker tool before you activate the automatic updates.
   
  To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
  1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
  2 right click "cmd" in the list programs, and then click Run as administrator.
  3. you are asked to enter an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
  4. at the command prompt, type "sfc/scannow", and press ENTER.
   
  Note:- After that, you can now install an update both manually and check the update is causing the problem and let us know to help you and solve the problem.

• During the audit of the optional updates, the Updates MS page is not a custom option

  Since I was MS Security Essentials started running every day, I was not surprised to see the following excerpt from page Update MS: no high-priority updates are available for your computer. To check the optional updates, go back to the home page, and then click CUSTOM. When I return to my home page, I can't find the word "CUSTOM" anywhere. Where is he?

  Original title: MS Updates?

   
  Hello
   
  Once you open the Windows Update page by clicking Start -> all programs -> Windows Update, you will get a page with two options - Express and custom. You must click on the option to custom on this screen to accomplish what you are trying to do.

• Delete all the files/folders of old install once the last series on the window updates have been installed?

  I have everything, if records of installation/uninstallation and newspapers since I installed XP.

  I'm sure that the last set of Windows updates work.

  Is there a problem with the removal of old files/flies and connects using CCleaner?

  If not all, can I at least remove those older files that the SP2 install date?

  What problems can I hire after cleaned?

  I guess that the answer to MS Office updates also apply.

  Thank you

  If your PC behaves properly, you can remove the hidden Windows hotfix backup files that start with $NTUninstallKB to the WINDOWS folder. There are two ways to do:

  A. manually, but copy files on a CD/DVD first to enable their restoration has a fix must be removed thereafter. Now delete the folder \WINDOWS, but leaves the orphan entries to add / remove programs intact. Remove only the $NTUninstallKB files that relate to corrections, not those for applications such as Word, WMP, etc.. In addition, DO NOT DELETE THE folder$ $hf_mig.

  B. my preference goes to run a script that also removes the corresponding entries in Add / Remove programs. Once they are deleted by the script, they cannot be restored. Download, extract and run this little scripthttp://www.dougknox.com/xp/utils/xp_hotfix_backup.htm creating a system restore point first just in case something goes wrong when the update of the register.

• Failed to install an optional update due to configuration errors. Errors are now fixed, but cannot find the update to make another attempt.

  I installed Skype and I'm using a webcam Logitech C210. Sound works fine but the person that I want to connect with shows a blank computer screen. I checked the settings on my end and everything seems to work fine, including a short video of me at the bottom right of my screen.

  Microsoft sent an optional update called "Logitech-Communication, hardware device, Streaming Media and Broadcast-Webcam 210". However when I tried to install it failed.
  With the help of Microsoft Help, the problem with the update appeared to be several errors in configuration that have been set.
  However, I was not able to find the answer key updated to try to install it and hopefully the video problem knows my contact.
  My question is basically, how do I find the optional update.
  Thank you.

• Automatic updates of Vista have deleted all the data on my desk.

  Recently my laptop Toshiba running Vista business done the automatic updates during the night, the morning I found that he had deleted all the folders, files and icons on my desktop (including the important work files), had changed the wallpaper, reset all my Internet properties and changed the login screen.

  What I can do, are very important files.

  I tried to restore the system to an earlier date, but this made no difference.

  I also tried to contact Microsoft, who acknowledged my report and said they would be back to me within one business day, which was seven days ago.

  Hi mbuk,.

  Welcome to Windows Vista answers Forums!

  With automatic updates, you want to lose the data stored on the system.

  Once removed the HDD data can't be recovered. However, you can use your favorite search engine to browse third-party data recovery software and use this software to recover data.

  Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  You can also view the following link to recover lost or deleted files and try the steps:
