How to determine which were installed the SP3 and IE8
I'm working on a friend's computer troubleshooting. I plan to roll back of IE8 to IE7 (or it might even be IE6). However, I want to just try this if I know for sure that IE6 has been upgraded AFTER SP3 has been applied.
I am trying to determine where these updates have been made. I thought that if I went into Add / Remove Programs, I would get this information here, but alas, he's not here.
So, what is the method for determining when IE6 or IE7 has been upgraded to IE8 and how do I determine when SP3 has been applied?
Thank you!

When you buy an individual monthly plan for CC at $50 per month, how many computers which can install you programs CC on and how many computers can use programs at the same time?
Thank you for your answer!
You can install the software on two computers. These two computers can be Windows, Mac OS, or everyone. If you install on a third computer, you will be asked to turn off this feature on the other two computers. You can then re-enable one of the two previous computers and use Cloud Creative apps on it. You can use apps on a single computer at a time.

It seems that you are getting the update to install Acrobat DC. This is the latest version of Acrobat.
If you get an error message, could you please share the screenshot of the same so that we can check at our end.

I can't install the SP3 from Microsoft Update Center
I can't install the SP3 from Microsoft Update Center.So I contacted Microsoft Support and ran diagnostic scan tool and sent the results. They send e-mail attachment reset_subinacle. It's done. FAILED. I tried 3 times and 2 days later... still cannot copy beethov9.wma. file. So now what should I do to get this SP3 on my son's computer? My son has enough disk space for SP3 and I made sure and prepared for this installation. Does anyone know what I need to do? Help!
Ideas:
- You have problems with programs
- Error messages
- Recent changes to your computer
- What you have already tried to solve the problem

Yes, I'm familiar with your recent discussions on this particular computer as well as the fact that he gave to your son as a used computer. Be so familiar with the history of this computer, I feel confident in saying he was already infected when he gave your son.
I fear that the only way to get this computer secure and fully patched to Windows Update will be formatting the hard drive - and then do a clean install of Windows.
Since you don't have the disks that originally came with the computer (and assuming that the original owner would have given them to you when gave you the computer if there were), we must assume (or at least to cross our fingers and hope) that there is a hidden restore partition that could be used to return the computer to the condition it was before first it left the factory. I can assure you that can support Dell & will help you, if not directly through the Dell Community forum:http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/desktop/f/3514.aspx
Follow the instructions below:
Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!
HOW to do a clean install of Windows XP: see method 1 and http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html#steps in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978307
Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care ofeverything on the next page before otherwise connect the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) and before using a flash drive or the SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

NB: No matter what Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the removal tool appropriate prior to installing the updates, Windows Service Packs or IE upgrades AND BEFORE installing your new anti-virus application (which will require WinXP SP3 must be installed).

If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility. Expect to pay about $150 USD (or more) for this service.

I want to connect my Macbook Air (IOS X 10.9.5) with my amp stereo House (TEAC I-501DA), which has a USB connection. I followed the steps described in the manual TEAC to install the driver and my Mac says it is installed correctly, but it does not appear as an option in the preferences/system sounds.
Version 1.1.2.2 El Capitan driver support, then why don't upgrade you your MacBook Air to El Capitan?

I installed the captain and my mac has been freezing on step "Configure your mac" for 24 hours. How do I please you? It is just to show the "set up your mac" and the turning circle Rainbow

How to determine which application has focus in Windows
Hello all-
I'm trying to work around the "Labview freezes when there is big data in the Clipboard, known issue" (http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Labview-freeze-when-accessing-a-custom-menu-with-data-on-the/m-p/200...) and a thought is to try to determine if Labview has the focus, and if it then clears the Clipboard. If Labview has focus, and then let the user use the Clipboard. It would be a good work around, because it would let users paste the screenshots and notes files and would not risk a nasty Clipboard / menu / gel-crash.
My initial search for determining windows application focus, came so empty. This old thread (from 2005) covers pretty well:
The "is more"property disobeys.» I must determine if Labview has the focus, as opposed to Windows, Notepad, firefox, etc. I also looked at command prompt commands and found nothing immediately useful here either.
Any ideas?
Thank you
Casey
