  Copy / paste will not work on Vista

  Do you remember when was the last time copying and pasting worked?
  It would be not less than 15 days ago?
  If so, to make a system restore?  Choose the date where the copy/paste functioned as your restore point.

• CD\DVD will not work. Vista Home premium, 64-bit. Message says: Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

  I downloaded the drivers needed from the Dell site and the burner will not work. The computer was again in March 2009. Not sure where the drivers should be located. I downloaded on: win\syswow64\drivers\afc.sys. I've looked everywhere and tried to find a dialog box offering the option "update drivers" for this device. Could not find a way to do except Dell and that doesn't seem to work. The 64-bit system has no 'Device Manager' that I can find. When I look at the properties of the burner, the link to "find a solution" is not highlighted.

  Hello DanHenry,

  Try the miracle solution at this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060 but before you uninstall all third-party software (example: Nero, Roxio, iTunes). You can reinstall your software after you reboot your system. Please let us know if this helped you. Make it a great day!

• Microsoft Update will not work

  Microsoft Update will not run through Internet Explorer.

  I seem to encounter two different errors and there seems to be no trend about which error appears where or when or why.

  One is 0x800A138F: the site has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view.

  I don't remember exactly what it was or said, but it was similar.

  I tried the solutions so far:

  -restart the computer, internet, etc.

  -added the Windows Update and Microsoft Update for Trusted Sites (I did years ago)

  -reset of Trusted Sites as the Internet zone settings

  -connected Microsoft Fix - It here: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/windows_update/en-us

  -a attempted to run the windowsupdate.diagcab from here: http://support.microsoft.com/gp/windows-update-issues?wa=wsignin1.0

  As with many other users of this forum, I can't run this .diagcab file. Looking at the many messages on this file, no one has yet solved anything. It seems that Microsoft has yet to recognize or acknowledge that they're providing a tool that is unusable. I hope I've provided enough information to lead to a resolution. I also sent a report through the Fix - It tool when it has not changed anything.

  Hello

  Please go to the Microsoft Community Forums.
   
  You did changes to the computer before the show?
   
  I suggest to refer to the links and follow the steps in the articles:
  Error message when you search for updates on the Windows Update site: "0X800A138F: there are no updates available at this time."
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326253
  WARNING: Reset Internet Explorer settings can reset security settings or privacy settings that you have added to the list of Trusted Sites. Reset the Internet Explorer settings can also reset parental control settings. We recommend that you note these sites before you use the reset Internet Explorer settings.
  Note: You should not turn off Windows Firewall unless you have another firewall enabled. Turning off Windows Firewall may make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers.
   
  I hope this helps.

• Windows Update does not work under Vista

  Hello! I have Vista Ultimate 64 bit and a few weeks ago, I noticed that my windows updates had stopped working. I followed the instructions to do a repair of my drive, but got "the upgrade is not available. Press Cancel and then select upgrade to a newer version than what you have "." However, there is nothing that gives me this opportunity. How am I supposed to fix it then?

  I have a feeling that this happened after a service pack has been installed (3?), but as I put it to the automatic updates I have not noticed exactly when he had ceased. I'm frustrated and very frankly also irritated. I paid a fair bit for Vista Ultimate and I'm basically says my drive is useless. I ran the Microsoft Fix It, and he said he solved the problem, but it didn't. I also did a system restore and that do not also not fixed the problem. The error code I get whenever I have try to do an update is 80070490. I saw a lot of messages from people having this same problem, while searching for a solution, so there's obviously a problem somewhere I would appreciate to help get it sorted please.
  Thank you and best regards,
  Sharon

  Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

  Not a valid win32 application"error when running an executable file suggests that the file is corrupted. It may have been partially downloaded for which the error is coming.

• Update will not work

  I tried the trial CC CC in Photoshop, then I decided to pay the subscription of photography and have had now with Lightroom for ten days. Whenever I turn on my CC computer tells me that I have updated. These are throughout the full 30 day trial too, and whenever I tried to update it just craps out and tells me that the download failed - EVERY TIME! I'M SICK OF THIS!

  The suggestion of 49 error on Adobe's Web site tells us to turn off antivirus protection and firewall and clear the Temp folder. WHY? How stupid are the programmers of Adobe? Why they can't get this update to work with running antivirus software or my temp folder which had all 72 MB of files it contains? IT STILL DOES NOT WORK!

  I want to be the notice to stop annoying me telling me that there are some updates that do not work or... the update to download properly WITHOUT disable me the anti-virus and firewall!

  HOW CAN I FIX IT?

• Adobe Updater will not work w / Reader 9.3.1

  Hello

  Recently I was using player quite often, but noticed I can is out of date, because it comes back with an error message saying the firewall is blocking the update or update adobe server is down.  I worked with Symantec to uninstall my AV program that controls the firewall and try to update with no luck.  I'm on Win7 64-bit.  Call Technical Support to Adobe redirected me line here on the forums.  Can anyone help?

  By chance, the Adobe Updater would stop working because I recently downloaded and installed a trial version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0, as the update function works either on this one here.

  Usually, when you uninstall Norton or Symantec Firewall (good choice, incidentally) the Windows Firewall is reactivated as part of the process.

  Unfortunately, when this happens it resets all the settings for the Windows Firewall default settings and you usuallt have to go "re-" programs for accessing the web on an individual basis.

  Open Control Panel > system and security and click on allow a program through Windows Firewall. Click on [allow another program...]

  Go to C:\Program Adobe 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe and click Open.

  Adobe Reader 9.3 should appear in the list of programs.

  

  Click Add and it will be OK (allowing the update too, no doubt) through the Windows Firewall. Click OK to close the firewall allowed window program.

  Repeat the update.

  If you are tired of Symantec and Norton, try AVG Free
