Update on a laptop that has not been used in almost 1 year

• It is safe to connect to the internet to update XP if the computer has not been used for a good year or so?

  Hi all - I have another laptop which has remained unused for probably over a year or more, and I want to start using it again. It works under XP, and currently has Service Pack 2 installed. My question is: is it safe to connect to the internet now and start downloading all the required Windows updates? My concern is that, as just like the anti-virus, firewall, even Windows itself have not been updated in so long, it would be imprudent to start the internet connection at this point? Is it safe to go forward and to connect and update, or is it better to download updates etc on another computer, put it on a disc/USB and then use it to install updates? Thanks in advance!

  Consider that he is therefore authorized to connect the computer to our broadband services to update the anti-anti-virus/firewall?

  Yes, as long as the firewall is turned on and that's the first thing you do online (i.e., no surfing, no audit e-mail, no chat, no download of anything else).

  The Windows Security Center will let you know if something went wrong.

  You're welcome and thank you very much for your comments!

• I tried to buy my book - DEFAULT TEXT - your book seems to have default text that has not been modified. Printed books will not include this text. This means all my text will not print?

  Using OSX El captain on a desktop iMac. iPhoto 9.6.1

  I tried to buy my book - this box appears - TEXT by DEFAULT - your book seems to have default text that has not been modified. Printed books will not include this text. Does this mean that all my text will not print?

  I've been twice now and change the text of Bradley Hand to the Blackboard to Helvetica Neue - which seemed to be the default. Message remains displayed. I don't know what else to do. This is my third book over the years, but the first with this problem. Can someone advise please?

  Thank you Davina

  It is not a problem of fonts. It is the problem of the sample text entered by the models.

  The error message means that there is a text field in your book which is still on show at the text included by the model, and you will need to replace this text with your text. This textfield might be hidden behind a picture.

  If you create a preview of the book, such default text is omitted. Have you compared the preview of what you see in iPhoto? Text that shows in iPhoto, but not in the preview will be such default text.

  For example, the section 'Topic of this book' on the flap back in some themes is a default text that should be replaced by your own legend:

  How can I get new photos added to a file that has already been opened is displayed in Lightroom before 4?

  Do you mean 'Folder', instead of 'file '? If so, select the folder in the library Module, right-click and select the option 'synchronize the folder. This should then compare the photos already imported from the folder with the photos currently in there and give you the ability to import new photos in the LR catalog.

• In train to make updates that has not been installed on their own lost

  My computer crashed there are all trying to update in a few months. I almost lost everything.

  My question: this computer is Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002, should I get another version or stick with it and do I have to buy Microsoft Office, he was also wiped out.

  Thank you much in advance.

  Extended support for Windows XP SP3 ends April 8, 2014.

  What is the Windows XP Media Center Edition Version 2002 which is always on when the computer starts and run correctly?  If so you can only use the Office 7 CD to repair the Office installation that is broken.  If the boots of installation of Windows that you can just use Of Nirsoft ProduKey to find the desktop version and the key used.  You can use ProduKey to find keys on another installation, on a network or with the disk mounted on another computer or in an external enclosure.

• My laptop has not been used for a year and now does not connect to wireless internet?

  My wife's cell phone has recently been repaired (power Cable plug damage) and has been missing for a year. We both used my laptop which connects to the internet just fine. The laptop connects to the network but does not connect to the internet. I tried all suggestions that our Windows Diagnostics, as well as other ideas for myself but had no chance. The continuous diagnostic message to read "cannot communicate with primary DNS 194.168.4.100 server. My only thought is that perhaps because of the amount of time it has been used as the network driver can be updated, although I don't know how to upgrade without connecting to the net?

• A new YouTube-Apple TV question that has not been requested here!

  A few years ago, I bought 2 apple TV.   One of them I gave to my daughter and her husband and I kept.   As everyone knows, who has more AppleTV, earlier, YouTube has been removed.   We found that it was because Google has changed the app so that it only worked on the latest AppleTV.   Well, I was resigned to it and decided I would get a new when I had the money for it.  Time passed.

  BUT a few weeks age, my daughter told me that YouTube has suddenly appeared on his Apple TV!  Amazing!  But he did not go back on my own!   I checked my updates and I later.  So what's happening?  Why it come back for her and not me?   And there at - it a setting I can do to bring it back?

  Is is possible that you and your daughter have different generation?  The youtube API supports more generation 2...

  have you updated your software?

• Can I use Windows 7 Upgrade media to upgrade a Vista computer that has not been upgraded to service pack 1? Can I use the option of custom Setup for Windows 7 Upgrade media? I would go from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Premium.

  The computer on which I am trying to upgrade is vascular under Vista Premium, but it was never upgraded to Service Pack 1. He has a problem with PIECES that is caused by a defective ntdll.dll module and so the updates do not work. Windows Upgrade Advisor tells me I must update Vista SP1. I really don't want to spend the time to solve the problem of Vista. I would like to just do a clean install using the custom install option on the Win7 upgrade support.
  Help.

  Wrong forum. This post here instead, questions please: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7install/threads

  That being said, you can not use an upgrade to Win7 edition to make a clean installation on a computer running Vista without SP1 installed, but you can buy a complete edition of Win7 (detail) and install it after formatting your HARD drive. ~ Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ WARNING: MS MVPs represent or work for Microsoft
