Major problems with VMWare Fusion 3.1.1

I just installed the new version of VMWare Fusion 3.1.1 on my MacBook Pro (OS 10.5.8). What a DISASTER! When I allowed him to install the new version of VMWare Tools, it came with a series of warnings that various drivers (mouse, VMXNet, SVGA, etc.) could not be installed. After the required reboot, the PC (Windows XP) came about a 3 "X 4" format (minimum screen resolution) and it will connect is no longer on the network. I got my old version of VMWare (v3.1.0) of my Time Machine drive, but the 3.1.1 installation process has apparently changed other things deep in the bowels of the Mac OS and the v3.1.0 recovered would not go. Is there anywhere on the web that I can download a copy of the from VMWare Fusion 3.1.0 .dmg file so that I can use it to try to get back to where I started (my original drive has only version 3.0)? If someone has means of ideas let me know.

You can download the versions up to published on VMWare support site: VMWare Fusion downloads. Click the link view history under downloads to view previous versions.

Before running the installation, follow these steps:

(1) start your virtual machine and remove tools from VMWare using Add / Remove programs.

(2) to the VMWare Fusion 3.1.1 DMG run the program uninstall to remove VMWare Fusion. This will NOT delete your virtual machines.

(3) restart your machine.

(4) install VMWare Fusion 3.1.0

(5) start your virtual machine and install the VMWare tools.

    Hi Douglas,.

    It looks like a problem with your graphics driver or the graphics card:

    Workarounds for this thread: try disabling acceleration 3D for the virtual machine.  Try to uninstall the driver Nvidia of the web and win back the builtin driver OS X.  If you use a spare graphics card, try reinstalling the original.

  • I am having major problems with my emails. I can send emails OK but I can't receive them. I use Outlook Express.

    I am having major problems with my emails.  I can send emails OK but I can't receive them.  I use Outlook Express.  When I first turn on outlook express, emails start coming, but then outlook express crashes.  I disable outlook express and start again. My emails are stuck in the Orange webmail box until the last email is downloaded.  This means that I sometimes get the same time to send four or five. I called technical support Orange several times, but they say it's a problem of microsoft. I use Windows XP.

    original title: I can't receive emails from outlook express.

    Hi Mike,.

    Make sure that you have not activated your antivirus software analysis of electronic mail.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 which is often a problem with receiving and sending a message.

    Then, try to go to file | Identities and setup a new identity.  This will give you a new message store and a new registry hive (where all the settings and account info is).  Add your email account and see if it works very well.  If it sticks sometimes, make sure that you are not setting to check messages too often (like every 3 minutes or somesuch).  You can also try to increase the timeout for the server where this is a problem (Tools |) Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced).  See if who deals with issues "" OE gel.  If Yes, then you can use the file | Import | Messages to bring them from the old identity.

    I do not know that moving to Outlook might solve the problem, because they both use the same mechanism to retrieve messages.  If you still have problems, come on and generate a log file and when OE freezes, which could give some indication of what is the underlying problem.  Make sure that you disable the log file later, because this file grows enormously and can cause problems if it becomes too large.

  • X930D Major problem with HDR content

    Hello

    I'm having a major problem with my new X930D and frankly, that's a deal breaker for me. When you play any HDR content on Amazon or Netflix TV goes to the HDR mode automatically and there is no way to return home (my favorite display mode). Picture mode is simply disabled. The HDR mode is actually very well, BUT local dimming is grayed out in HDR mode and I want to have to DISABLE COMPLETELY. That is my ultimate goal: getting OFF local dimming while playing the HDR content. So is there a way to:

    (1) force the photo for anything other than HDR mode mode so that the local dimming can be disabled

    OR

    (2) the strength of Local Dimming OFF (perhaps via the service menu)?

    OR

    (3) affect Amazon/Netflix steady stream in mode 4 k instead of HDR mode

    If it is not all viable options for me that I will need to return this ASAP. Thank you in advance for your help!

    No, at least for now it's impossible.

    Maybe the update of Marshmallow will change.

    Otherwise, you can buy box HD fury to remove metadata of HDR and keep only the wide range of colors and 10-bit video... However, you will lose the increased contrast

    The attached file "Windows_7.vmx.zip" contains a new 'Windows 7.vmx' file created from the supplied vmware.log file.

  • Genuine Windows 7 on MacBook Pro running in the partition, BootCamp with VMware Fusion 3.1

    I'm having a problem with Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit.

    I installed Windows 7 on my Bootcamp partition and until recently he worked well as well when I ran into VMWare Fusion.

    When I boot on my Windows 7 on Bootcamp partition, everything is OK.  But then when I run it in VMWare Fusion it says that my copy is not genuine.

    I just went through the automated phone system and entered the codes, and so now while I'm running Fusion Windows is genuine.

    I fear, however, that when I return to the execution of the partition, Bootcamp, Windows will say that is not true, once again.

    Only, I have a copy of Windows 7 and can only run from the VMWare Fusion or Bootcamp partition at any time.

    How can I fix it if Windows is more said that it is not authentic, when I switch from a training camp and VMWare Fusion?

    I need to be able to run Windows while I'm on the side of Mac at the same time

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you used the same Windows Installer Bootcamp, VMWare Fusion product key, there is the question.  You can only install and activate a 1 license of Windows 7.  The second installation requires own license that you can buy on the Microsoft Store. Carey Frisch

    Just updated to VMware Fusion Pro 8 and having problems of shared folders.

    2. turn on the virtual machine.

    3 click on Virtual Machine > settings.

    4. click on sharing.

    5 in Fusion 7.x, select enable shared folders. Molten 6.x, 5.x, 4.x turn files option ON the Shared. In Fusion 3.x, select shared folders on your Mac option.

  • Webcam not recognized in Windows XP with VMware Fusion

    I use VMware Fusion 2.0 on a Macbook Pro with Windows XP.  I've been using Yahoo Messenger with the iSight webcam and I think I accidently deleted the icon at the bottom of the VMware window and now the web cam is not recognized in Windows at all.  The iSight camera works just fine under MacOS, but I can't find how to do Windows or VMware recognizes the camera.  I guess I could reinstall VMware and it might solve the problem but I'm looking for an easier route when it exists. Someone at - it a similar problem?

    Thank you

    Dennis

    Have you checked the settings of your virtual machine to see if the isight is activated must be forwarded to the VM?  You might consider checking or setting these options under usb.  Also if you have version 2.0 only then you can consider update 2.0.5 before reinstalling VMware.

  • Known issues with VMWare Fusion 2.0.2 and FTP/SSL?

    Hello

    I have a virtual machine in VMWare Fusion 2.0.2 running Windows XP with SP3. I have the Windows Firewall and AVG Free running.

    I use FileZilla as my FTP client. I am able to connect to a server using the vanilla FTP protocol. No problems.

    However, when I try to use FTP/SSL to connect to a server, I get time-out errors as it gets stuck on "initializing TLS... ».

    I tried to disable the Firewall and AVG. Nothing helps.

    I tried other FTP clients (CuteFTP, for example). Same result.

    And, I am able to connect through FTP/SSL and FileZilla to my host (Mac OS 10.5.6) operating system and another computer in my house running Windows 7.

    So I narrowed down it to something in this specific virtual Windows machine installation, but I don't know what else to try.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

    How is the Machine to stop virtual network set up, NAT or bridged?  If NAT have you tried to use bridged?  Note: If you change from NAT to Bridged while the Virtual Machine is running, the IP address must be released or renewed.  If you are unsure how to do this then just restart the Virtual Machine.
