• After the upgrade to Windows 10, I can't send mail from my IMAP account

  Upgrade to Windows 10 last night. Make a backup on MozBackup beforehand and restored after the download. I see all my messages in my Roadrunner and Gmail IMAP accounts. I can receive messages from all three types of accounts, but I can't send emails from the IMAP account. I checked that I have the right selected outgoing server. But whenever I try to send, I get the error:

  An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded:
  Action taken not requested: the mailbox not available
  Invalid DNS MX or the A/AAAA resource record.
  Please check the recipient of the "[email protected]" message and try again.

  Although looks like your new update of windows 10 has not the right or any other DNS servers set up. Thus, when Thunderbird is trying to send a mail it it looks like for the server and there is no... you can navigate t goole, com using this machine and one web browser other than the one provided with windows 10.

  The alternative is the email address your shipment to the a in the faulty DNS entry

  Research here shows that this is the case. The field of your shipment at all simply not exist in DNS.

• HP Mini 210: Palm Desktop (see 6.2.2) lost address book during and after the upgrade to Windows from December 10

  The problem is not with the HP Mini. This computer is running Windows 7 Starter and he Hotsyncs perfectly with my Tungsten C handheld. The problem is with a Dell Vostro, but because it is a problem of Palm, I hope you can help.

  My Dell Vostro has been upgraded to Windows 10 in September. I had a few problem get the Palm to synchronize at this time, but I thought her and successfully synched bases Memo, address and the Date of all the way up to 10 Windows update that Microsoft pushed around Christmas.

  The first Hot Sync attempt after the update given my address book disappear from desktop ONLY (running version 6.2.2) and I was not able to find a way to restore the address book on the desk.

  Handheld still works fine. As I said the HotSync with the HP Netbook (Windows 7 Starter Edition) and I would like to continue to use it as long as ITO still works.

  Try using the Import/Export built-in in Palm Desktop.

  On the PC that contains the data, go to File/Export (while the address book is open and being viewed).  This will produce a file that you can copy to the Dell PC.  Use a flash drive, Cloud Computing service, card SD - it doesn't matter.

  On the Dell, go to file/import and locate the file.

  Windows 10 has caused some 'quirks' to appear in Palm Desktop.  We learn that we will!

• UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME during the upgrade to Windows 7 from Windows Vista

  I'm getting an unmountable_boot_volume during the upgrade to Windows 7 from Windows Vista.  It occurs after Windows 7 software loads and restarts.  If I restart the computer, I have the option to start the upgrade to Windows 7 or Windows Vista.  If I select Windows Vista, the computer restarts without problem.  If I choose Windows 7 Upgrade, I get the blue screen of death with the unmountable_boot_volume error.  Of course, nothing wrong with the boot volume because Windows Vista starts without error.  The boot drive is 1.5 TB.  Any suggestions on how to accomplish the upgrade to Windows 7?

• Can I upgrade to Windows 7 from Vista without having to install Vista Service Pack 1?

  Several years ago, I made the huge mistake of update Win XP Pro to Win Vista Ultimate. In doing so, I immediately fell on so many questions that I spent more time each day trying to solve problems, to do the calculation and in some cases it was practically impossible to calculate all. It took about a dozen days before I have just abandoned, thrown my Windows machine into the closet and balance to a Mac. I've not looked back since.

  Well, relatively recently I bought a new laptop from lenovo with the intentions of immediately wiping of Windows 7 and Linux installation, with the hope of avoiding the headaches that I had previously with Windows. However, just out of curiosity, I decided to try Windows 7 before cleaning off the coast of the laptop and I have not had any major problems with it. So, I'm now thinking that I can dust off that Vista machine (the one that was put in the closet), if I can only he move to Windows 7.
  Almost immediately after plugging the thing, the headaches have come back with a vengeance.  I ran the Win 7 Upgrade Advisor, which basically said that everything was fine and that all that I had to do was to install Service Pack 1. Well, there is no service pack 1 in Windows update so I just downloaded the standalone file.  However, after trying to run the stand alone file, he said something to the effect that I can't because it is for installations of Windows language English, French, German and Spanish. He said in English, you the spirit, and it does because I have an English version of Windows.
  I'm now thinking that there could be another language pack on my computer so I googled how to uninstall language packs. The only information I can find on how to uninstall the language packs is to insert the Windows installation disc. I don't have the installation disc. There are years I paid an arm and a leg for a software that was virtually unusable.
  Is that anyway to upgrade to Windows 7 without having to deal with Vista and still not the upgrade price? I'm certainly not going to pay for the full version, as the last time, I would have probably had a better experience if I would have just thrown money into the fire. I don't understand why we should stop both to upgrade the operating system.
  I paid for Windows Vista and now I'm ready to pay to upgrade to Windows 7 because Vista doesn't help, but I can't because the Windows Vista I paid for is once again, pretty useless.
  Is anyway to avoid to jump through all these hoops or get all these headaches to put Windows 7 on my computer - upgrade price since I already have a useless Vista license?
  For what it's worth, I don't want to be negative, because I'm just completely frustrated at a task that should be simple - not to mention that this is the second time I'll have to post because the first time he said the server was unavailable after all the effort to write this first. I am a disabled veteran, so I did not have money to be plopping down hundreds of dollars to check if the software works or not, then that cost when he is not eating. I am now looking to mitigate my loss of Vista upgrade to Windows 7 (at least a little), but still, Vista prevents me to do.

  To remove the headache you cleaning 7 via BIOs Setup. You must then install 7 Service Pack 1 (if not included on the DVD), then the system drivers.

  A complete guide to a Dell system is available here. It will take e slightly modified for a non-Dell system, but it will give you an idea. Note that I wrote each step out in its entirety with a lot if you do not have this or that to get here, so it's a much more long/more scary looking at first sight than it actually is.
  Note: Vista is very stable (~ as stable as 7) when it's done via a clean installation and its Service Pack 1 and 2 service are installed before the drivers in the system (also mentioned in the guide). Via an upgrade, it's a nightmare that you met.

• I've upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista on a Tablet PC and have since upgraded to Windows 8. Can I re-use the upgrade of Windows 7 on an another Vista PC?

  I have a Tablet PC originally shipped with Vista installed. I've upgraded to Windows 7 disk 3 license and have since upgraded to Windows 8 with promo code I got when purchasing a new office.

  Can I reuse the license to move an other PC from Vista to Windows 7, since the upgrade to Windows 8 would have been valid for a Vista upgrade?

  Yes, you can transfer the license of Windows 7 on another computer. Why, because the basic license is Windows Vista.
