When I try to install iTunes it gets to half way and says that the I need to log in as administrator
Original title: Installation of iTunes
When I try to install iTunes, it gets to half way and says that the I need to log in as an administrator. I went into the properties of iTunes and tried my name of the computer as admin., but would not except it. The dialog box says that it cannot display the name of the ADM. Someone can help me. . I had installed iTunes but could not get updates, then I decided to uninstall it because I got an error on the end with the error code 2324 updates. I ran M. from the Microsoft fix it and that at least I would like to uninstall but when I went to install the program it told me I had to sign as long as ADM to install.
I'm not a genius at this, but I can follow directions so if anyone has anything I would be great full.
Thanks, Gene Coombs

A man called my cell phone once a month in what appears to be a scam.
This person wants me to turn on the computer or to ask me if I'm on the computer.This person claims to be working for Microsoft.Usually I say that is I don't have a computer or that I have 10 computers, and I don't have time to do what he wants.This person warms me that my computer is in danger and that I need to act now by following the instructions of his phone.Usually he hangs up the phone once I tell him to call later.The phone number indicated in my identity from the last call, he did today 23 Aug 2012 @ 13:00 Pacific time is: 516-673-0633I think Microsoft should be very interested in protecting its reputation and its customers to discover why this person called in what seems to me randomly.ask Microsoft behalft.Thank you.It is a total scam! Do a search on these forums and you will find a LOT of references. Never leave in your computer.

My new Macbook Air freezes all the time, I do closures hard then it comes back, in general. The tech simply ran Mac twice diagnostics and says that nothing is wrong with it. I think I bought a lemon. Any ideas what I need to do? Is it's better to go to a real Apple store rather than just Mac for repairs/diagnosis? Is the customer service nothing better in a real store?
The guarantee gives the right to the free phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the United States directly from Apple (not a retailer), you have 14 days from the date of delivery where to Exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you purchased from a reseller, its return policy applies.

My wife tried to update firefox and since then it will not open. When I click it a window appears and says that I have to finish the upgrade a previous version by restarting. When I reboot nothing changes.
If the files have already been downloaded, then delete the files in the folder updates\0 and updates.
You can also remove active - update.xml, or even updates.xml (stores the history of update).- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Software_Update (Update works not properly)
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox)
Do a cleaning (re) install and delete the folder of the program Firefox (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.
- Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current version of Firefox if possible.
- Do NOT remove the data of a personal nature when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
- It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
Your bookmarks and other profile data stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.

Windows XP Activation loop.
When I turn on my computer it tells me that I need to activate windows. I click on 'YES' it takes me to the activation page and says that Windows is already activated. All I can do is, click 'OK' and he takes me into a log on screen with my name on it and goes through the same process, as described at the beginning of this statement. I'm in a loop. The only way out is to wipe my hard drive and reload windows new who, within 30 days, it will do no doubt once again. How to do this?
For 3 years I rebooted my computer. That's why I reloaded it in the first place. I sent this version of Windows XP by Microsoft and have recharged the system at least 4 times in the past 10 or 11 years.Ken

When I use Windows Maovie Maker, the program keeps freezing upwards and says that it does not. I close and try again, but get the same question. in the past, I used this program very well without any problem. Now I do one or two things in the tyring program to create a video and it freezes. Any suggestions how I can fix this problem?
The three main causes of problems of Movie Maker are:
(1) incompatible or damaged source files.
(Photos / videos / Audio clips)Several formats are apparently compatible with
Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:Photos - bmp
Video - wmv or dv - avi
Audio - wav, wma, wmv(2) problems with video filters
Open Movie Maker and go... Tools / Options /.
Compatibility tab and disable all filters / OK.If this does not help, try going back to the same
location and on the left, click on the 'all the default settings.
button. / OK.(3) too large or complex project
Create small projects.
Add less Transitions, effects, etc... -

I called the phone number of microsoft on the site and they said that they did call people
I found the phone number on the Microsoft web site and called them. They said that they hear and started trying to sell it again for me. I'm confused.
Hello
What phone number and what site please.
And read this information;
Microsoft does not contact you unless YOU have made prior arrangements with them to do.
There is an article in the link I'm you provide at the end of this one
Read this Information from Microsoft:
"Avoid scams to phone for tech support.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/online-privacy/avoid-phone-scams.aspx
Don't be fooled of unsolicited calls. Don't provide personal information.
Here are some of the organizations that cyber criminals claim to come:
Helpdesk Windows
Windows repair center
Microsoft technical support
Microsoft technical support
Windows Support Group Technical Department
Microsoft Research and Development Team (team of Microsoft R & D)
Either these so-called "Microsoft" Tech companies want to sell you a worthless software, or remote access to your computer to try to steal your credit card and bank information and also achieve an identity theft on you.
