Differences between "View Update History" and "installed updates".

I have discrepancies between "view update history" and "installed updates".  Updates do not match and there are a lot of differences.  I'll try and link to an extracted image so you can see the differences.
I have a Gateway GM4574 with an AMD Live 64-bit processor, but am running Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit) SP2,
I found this problem when certain Office updates (KB2760411, KB2760583, & KB2760588) kept wanting to be installed over and over.  This problem is now resolved.
Here's the problem I'm having now...

When I compare what follows, I come with a LOT of contradictions:
(a) Control Panel, system and Maintenance, update Windows, view update history
(b) Control Panel, programs and features, installed updates

Please see if your system has the same problem.  I don't know if it will work, but I'll try and link a picture of the views of two control panel so you can see the differences.  Just look at the dates of arrival and you will immediately see there are problems.

Here is the link to an image I've snipped: https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=95DC3CEDE6DDD9BD! 814 & authkey =! AEwfCYrNsbmnUk0 & v = 3 +
When you click on the link and the page opens, look down the page and you'll see a thumbnail of the image.  Right-click on it and click View Original.  It looks better this way.  It is easier to read.

Again, I didn't know you can see updates two of 2 different ways, but there are a lot of updates do not appear on the installed updates that appear on view update history.

I'm worried about this because I don't know whether or not updates are really installed.
Any help would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
Dennis

History is not important, it's the installed updates that are important.

At a certain stage, you can reset Windows Update, thus losing your history, or may have installed updates manually.

Don't worry about this. As long as the computer is updated and the updates are listed under "installed updates", it is essentially.

    What is the difference between $< PRODUCT_TOP >/admin/sql and $< PRODUCT_TOP > / 115/patch/sql

    I looked at a number of packages on my system, and they seem to be constructed from its location *.pls in my $< PRODUCT_TOP > / patch/115/directory sql

    However it is normally also have a file with the same name in $< PRODUCT_TOP >/admin/sql, but it generally has a different version number (in my case, I found some files in it that have a version number that is greater than what is in the directory of 115/patch/sql)

    My understanding is that the product admin directory using automatic upgrade as part of an upgrade?

    Fix.

    Q. Since Auto Upgrade is involved, I guess that means say 11i upgrade for R12 (what was once a migration) rather than what would be a Pack of updates to version (which is formerly a Maintenance release) for example 11.5.10.2?

    I would say that it is applicable to all the patches that update APPL_TOP, so it applies to the outermost Regions and the Maintenance Pack patches but not an 11i to R12 as a new APPL_TOP upgrade is created in this case (unless you are referring to the new APPL_TOP).

    Q. the patch product_top directory holds transferred files in to adpatch?

    Yes.

    If he holds only the latest version provided by the various patches that have been applied to this top product?

    Yes.

    Q: why would the product_top directory admin hold files with version numbers higher than that which is in the product_top patch?

    Can you give an example for this?

  • Difference between an Oracle database and Oracle SID

    Hello

    Can someone please differeniate what exactly is the difference between an Oracle SID and a new Oracle database.
    We just need to create another instance of an application (so we need another copy of all tables).

    So either we can:

    1. new database SID created or

    2. new user created in the existing schema or

    3. the new database provided

    What is the best approach?

    Hello

     New database SID created or
    

    Which is the equivalent of creating a new database in your case.

    New user created in existing schema or
    

    You mean new schema (user) created in the existing database. I assumed that this is because you do not want both asks to update the same copy of the table, but copy different.

    3. New database provided
    

    Depends of your you if you want to create a new database or a new scheme to get another copy of the table.

    A few points that I take in mind
    (1) if I have a production database and I need to create a new set of control panels, or any other end, I would create a new database.
    (2) if I have a test database and I need to create a new set of tables of control or any other purpose, if possible I would create a new schema of the existing database.
    (3) if I use less resources(hardware/memory), I would proffer a new schema of the existing database.
    (4) if I'm running not less resources and I want to keep these two entirely different copies, then for security reasons I would create a new database.

  • Difference between the cDAQ-9174 and cDAQ-9178

    I have several cRIO-9081.  Each cRIO-9081 running NOR-DAQmx 15.5.  On four of the cRIO-9018 we show you cDAQ - 9178 with 8 modules.  Everything just worked.  On the fifth cRIO-9018, we tried to connect a cDAQ-9174.  The aircraft appeared in the Windows Device Manager and MAX, but MAX has indicated that the aircraft was missing (error-88705) and that Windows can't find a driver for the instrument.

    We then plugged a cDAQ-9178 in the fifth cRIO and everything just worked.

    What is the difference between a cDAQ-9174 and cDAQ-9178 other than the number of the module support?

    Paul

    Hi Paul,.

    It seems it could be a driver problem! What DAQmx version you have installed on two computers? Reinstall the latest version may be worth it because it looks like there may be corruption. You can find the latest version here: http://www.ni.com/download/ni-daqmx-15.5/5901/en/

    You can manually associate the device driver, here: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/5B80CAAA64413B4C86256C5E0000C1A7

    There are modules connected to the cDAQ chassis?

    Also, sometimes, this can happen if you do not restart your computer after the installation of the NOR-DAQmx driver. Restart your computer after the driver installation will allow you to reserve the device successfully. Here are a few others not to try:

    • Check the charger to device OR to see if it is running

    • Reset the service OR charger

    • Reset the MAX Configuration database

    • The system power cycle

  • What is the most important difference between 3D Picture control and controlling the display of Simulator

    I want to create a simulation of 3D on the front panel, and I see that we can use a 3D image control or a display of Simulator control. It seems that each of them can be used at the same position. What is the most important difference between 3D Picture control and display of Simulator?

    Hi sfh1,

    You are right, I found examples of Robotics that use 3D photo control and display Simulator control to display a scene 3D on the front panel. After further research, it seems that control the display of Simulator adds additional features compared to the 3D picture control. The control displays Simulator allows the user to right-click control during execution and change the background color, draw fashion, draw contact, view the ID of robot, display sensor data, suspension of service Simulator and reset service Simulator.

    More in depth on these options and the display of control Simulator can be found here:

    There is no difference in the product itself.

    Although if you get a generic OEM full version, it contains the
    even software, it has the following disadvantages compared to the
    commercial version:

    1. the biggest drawback of an OEM version (at least in the USA) is
    that its license it permanently binds to the first computer, it is
    installed on. He can never legally be moved to another computer, sold,
    or given (except with the original computer). If the computer
    dies or is stolen, your license dies with him.

    2. he can't do a clean install, not an upgrade.

    3 Microsoft offers no support for OEM versions. You cannot call their
    with a problem, but rather to secure the necessary support of your
    OEM; who take in charge may go anywhere between property and non-existent. Or
    You can get support elsewhere, like in these forums.

  • What the difference between the $29.00 and $1 099 in terms of features?

    I want to buy the software but I m so uncertain ante Adobe phones DO NOT work properly... What the difference between the $29.00 and $1 099 in terms of features?

    There is no real difference at all, it is the same app, same features.

    The $ 29 subscription means that you 'Rent' the application, you will have all the upgrades and patches during your free subscription. You can have two versions installed, but no more with this license. In addition, it is related to your personal Adobe ID.

    The perpetual license means that you have the application, it can use 'forever', and it is NOT linked to your Adobe ID when a new version appears that you will have to pay for the upgrade (if possible). You can have as many versions on your system you want with perpetual licenses. This can be important if you need to work for clients that use older versions.

    ATTENTION: I am only a user, does not not for Adobe, that's what I see as the major differences. Crossing my fingers that someone from the staff will give you more details.
