  • Apple Mobile Device Support new download problems with update iTunes on XP

    iTunes tells me to uninstall both iTunes and Apple Mobile Device Support (AMDS) then reinstall iTunes and amendments comes with installation... Problem is that it is not download the new AMDS with the new iTunes, and I have a Windows XP

    * original title - I bought an iPod touch connected and installed the new iTunes and: you need the latest version of the Apple Mobile Device support *.

    This is the old version of AMDS: http://apple-mobile-device-support.software.informer.com/.  The thing is, you're using the latest version of iTunes this version can not install because iTunes includes a verson later program when it installs (and so installing this one can either do not work or may cause problems).  If you have the latest version of iTunes installed, you should already have the latest version of AMDS.  Do you mean that it is not compatible with XP?  You could try to downgrade to an earlier version of iTunes that does not include the amendments and use the link above to add and see if it works - but your iPod may require the latest version and does not work with earlier versions of if or not you want to try this (I wouldn't bother) is up to you.

  • Updates are always safe to download and install on my computer?

    After you receive the message that I have updates to download and install, is ALWAYS completely safe to do? With my last PC, I got a typical announcement, completely legitimate-looking that I had "several important updates" that I needed to download and install. I have had these ads before on the necessary updates and always took the lead with download and install them. BUT after the download and installation of these special "updates", my computer was completely dead and never worked again - I couldn't even get it to blue screen! Absolutely no response when I turned it on. Since there was nothing wrong with it before these "updates", I can't help but conclude that some of these "updates" are not only wrong, but also deadly!

    Hello

    Yes always install updates. They solve the problems of security and improve the stability of Windows. If you have any problems, create a new question and we can help you solve these issues :)

  • PROBLEMS AFTER UPDATE DOWNLOAD

    I downloaded the microsoft updates and after the closing down and restart computer download I received a message that says: updates not configured correctly coming changes
    Do not stop your computer.

    then it restarts continuously and again with the same error message and I am not able to enter the computer, etc.

    PLS HELP

    [Correction to Vista]

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  • Can I update my computer, download the updates to a flash drive and then install it on my computer when I go?

    Hi all!

    I have 2 updates to download an install on my computer. But the problem is I have a dial-up internet access and the size of the combined file is about 264 MB. At this size, it will take several days to fully downloaded. My average download speed is slower than a snail to 2 KB/s.

    Now my current options are:
    1) download in small sections of every day. That I started to do. about 2 to 5% to 10% or slightly more.
    (2) downloadable on a flash drive using my local library computers. Then come home and install the download on my computer.
    (3) wait 2 weeks until we get the bundled package incudes cable, phone and high speed internet 5 MB download download/800 KB.

    I need 1 update to hopefully help with some problems I am with my computer. From IE7 to IE8 will solve most of these problems if all goes well!

    What do you recommend I do?

    You can.

    For example, here is the download link for the 32-bit version of Vista Service Pack 2 standalone version:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=a4dd31d5-F907-4406-9012-a5c3199ea2b3&displaylang=en

    You can download/save it to CD/Flash Drive > take home > install it.

    You will need the KB updates of security number you need to download (from your own scanning system), and you have to get the right to qualify for the operating system (Vista xxxxxxxx).

    Last question first: No.
     
    The rest - it looks like that you may be infested/infected with something.  We're going to clean up some things.  Follow this advice as given, do not deviate or ignore anything just because you might have done something similar or even exactly the same thing a few minutes before on your own.

    Search for malware:

    Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

    Remove anything they find. Reboot when necessary. (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

    Search online with eSet Online Scanner. Remove everything it finds.

    Reset.

    Start an elevated command prompt.

    1. Run the following commands pressing on enter after each line:

      net stop wuauserv

      CD %SystemRoot%\System32

      Ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old

      net start wuauserv

    2. Reset

    * Important * When you do this, the following problems occur:

    • Updates that are currently downloaded but which have not yet been installed must be downloaded again by using Windows Update or Microsoft Update.
    • When you remove the Software Distribution folder, your download history is deleted.
    • If you currently receive updates from Microsoft Update and Windows Update, you will need to reselect this option from the Windows Update Web site.


    * Note *
    if the problem is resolved and you can successfully download and install the updates, you can delete the directory SoftwareDistribution.old to recover disk space.

  • Download programs and updates problems

    My computer is having download problems. Instead of simply install programs, I have to register and then navigate to the program and run it. Now, when I record programs that they disappear from the folder I saved them in? Help!

    Hello

    • What browser do you use?
    • What happens with Windows update?
    • What program are you trying to save and install?

    If you use Internet explorer, you should get the window "Do you want to run or save this file?" first, then you will have the opportunity to choose where to save the file.

    I firstly you suggest to rename the file before you download, and then search for the file name find where files are saved.

    Sometimes media files will give the State of play and try to play in the browser. Are these audio or video files by any chance?

    Also suggested I try the download by right click on the file link by clicking on "save target as", and then selecting the save location as a test.

    I also suggest you to perform an optimization of Internet Explorer on your computer and find the number.

  • My computer is stuck in a boot loop indefinitely after downloading the Vista updates.

    original title: I have the same problem posted by Don Gagen on 16 April. My computer is stuck in a boot loop indefinitely after downloading the Vista updates.

    I installed some updates Vista Home Basic important for my laptop on Wednesday, and since then, my computer won't start. I get to the first page of Windows that shows "Configuration updates 0% complete" for about 15 seconds and then restart the machine. This loop continues indefinitely. I spoke to the manufacturer (Dell) who say there have been some recent problems with the update service, and I have to pay (£69) to address this problem. I don't really want to pay for a repair, when the problem does not seem to have been caused by me or my computer. I tried all the options from the start menu, but there seems to be no way to solve this problem, for example, in 'Safe' Mode, the problem persists, and 'Last successful login' does not work either. It will not launch command prompt. I ran Dell diagnostic check before extended initialization and there seems to be nothing wrong with the hardware. I have no disks system of re - install Vista (and that I would lose all my data anyway). I can also access the ID of the license of Vista. The computer is no longer under warranty, and I have no agreement to support hardware or software for it.

    I would be grateful for any suggestion.

  • I have a subscription to CC Photoshop and Lightroom. I bought a new Apple MacBook Pro last week. I had Adobe shadow my computer to download both programs on my computer. Downloads succeeded, but now my problem is that nothing has been transferred?

    I have a subscription to CC Photoshop and Lightroom. I bought a new Apple MacBook Pro last week. I had Adobe shadow my computer to download both programs on my computer. Downloads succeeded, but now my problem is that nothing has been transferred? I have photos and user presets on my old computer in lightroom, but nothing transferred. Also, it is show on this computer I have 5 Lightroom, but team support pulled up to my account today and downloaded lightroom cc if it still means something. I am a new photographer and green not computer savvy. I am totally confused with no further assistance from Adobe.

    It's pretty normal. All your images are always on your old computer and you transfer those to your new computer. Just transfer them as well as your catalog file and opens in Lightroom on the new computer. For presets, you need to transfer files, preferences and presets that are hidden in folders hidden on the Mac. Therefore, with the Mac, when I update the machines, I'm usually just restore from a backup on the new computer (very easy with Time Machine backups) or directly from the old machine (a little harder). This will give all files and settings and the software installed on the old machine immediately and you can just continue. Is not something that Adobe can really help you with either said by the way, but you might have someone from the Apple Store help you with that, if you are not comfortable with moving files to a new computer.

    Cc of Lightroom is simply a version update of Lightroom 5. CC requires a monthly subscription that pay you apparently. You did not use the software you pay for if you use 5 Lightroom on the old machine.
