Vista are no longer updated correctly?

as of last June my Dell Inspiron 1720 with Vista was having this problem http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-system/vista-freezes-as-user-login-screen-boots/ace639e6-d663-428c-ab98-4b664d3cc66e

Recently, a new type of lock started to happen. My computer would lock every time she was in the middle of a process such as a virus scan or a disk defragmentation. The thing would be same blocking mode 'sleep', greeting me with nothing else than a black screen lit when opening it. The hard drive light would just die when this happened. Oddly enough, the previous issues of camera, in contrast to the mouse would still be mobile, but otherwise useless. I haven't had absolotely no clue as to what was causing these crashes happen and no idea how to fix them.

With no leads to WHY this was happening, I choose to reinstall Vista, what I had done many times before using the OS disc and the drivers disk with my Inspiron 1720 came. This time however, the updated Windows following that initial installation did not work as they did before. Vista Service Pack 1 would only appear as a download 1.9 mb which ultimately do nothing once installed and continued to appear as an update waiting to be installed subsequently. Update Windows KB929777 would also constantly fail to install properly, suposidely because I had upgraded RAM my computer from its original 2 GB to 4 GB. In addition, several parts of the original installation of my computer, such as the keyboard on the screen that showed up at the user login screen and tablet pen window who has always shown on the left side of the screen, has never showed up, leading me to believe that some parts of Vista can not installed correctly.

While I am not necessarily convinced that I can repair my beloved 5 years Inspiron 1720, I would at least limit the possibilities of what this question might have been. Vista Update Service recently changed somehow? I deleted and reinstalled many times last year because of problems with malware and never encountered this kind of problem before.

  • Satellite A215 - Fn button are no longer available after reinstalling Vista

    Hi all, not.

    I recently reinstalled Vista on my laptop and I noticed that the function key options are no longer available for brightness settings, lock computer and tastes. If anyone has a direct link to the drivers for that would be great, I thought that I had all of the visit by Toshiba but apparently not.

    In addition, scrolling does not work on my touchpad. I downloaded the latest synaptics drivers and installed and nothing helps... Any help on that would be appreciated also.

    I cehcked mouse options and those who appear to be good. There no options in the Panel "touchpad" however... maybe something there?

    Thanks in advance!

    The A215 is a laptop to US. I know that because of the 5 with the and of the model if you use the page of the Toshiba driver Vista us to get the right drivers.

    In any case the FN keys are controlled by Toshiba Flashcards Utility. This sis tool part of the Vista Toshiba value added package and I think that you need to reinstall this tool.
    I put t know why you touchpad scroll function does not work as it should perhaps settings are active or something like

    I have an A210. It s European model and equivalent to A215
    I can change the settings of the touchpad here:

  • iTunes App updates are no longer sync with iPhone

    I'm in iOS 9.2 on my iPhone and iTunes 12.3.2.35 64-bit on Windows 10 Pro.  It was that when I updated my apps on the iPhone and then sync the phone with iTunes, applications would be update automatically in iTunes and then appears in the Recycle Bin, ready to remove older versions of applications.  In this case is no longer, so now I have to update the applications on the iPhone and iTunes separately if I want to update Apps in both.  What is the purpose of this?  Why double our efforts?  I tried to update Apps in iTunes first and then running synchronization.  Applications updates appear then to be transferred to the iPhone while sync ("transfer Apps... 1 of 4... [Application name] "), but then when I finished the sync and see the updated section of the applications in the App Store on the iPhone, they always appear not updated, with a red circle on the App Store icon indicating the number of applications that need to be updated, and the word"Update"still alongside the Apps in question in the updated App Store section.  What gives?

    In addition, in iTunes, in the [my iPhone] / Summary / Apps section, I used to see all of my Apps in the left column, but see only 20 of them.  All 100 + Apps are still displayed on the right-hand side of the screen, which reflects the layout of my iPhone windows, but I discovered that, in order to restore all applications in the left column, I had to go to my account name in iTunes at the top of iTunes then click on purchase and then re-download applications.  Why on Earth?  They who don't take up much room on my SSD and they are already on the iPhone, so there is no saving space on the iPhone by showing only not all applications in the left column, so what gives?  What's the point?

    Please return to the process where when I sync my iPhone my Apps are updated automatically in iTunes.  Why do you do the doubly difficult process?  And, what's now the sync at all, if I don't have photos or new playlists or something like that on my machine I want to synchronize with the iPhone?  There is no synchronization, then, and so unless I have no particular reason to synchronize then I don't be backup versions of the database of the iPhone on my machine on a regular basis!  Apple, you get an Apple rotten to me!  I thought you were all make tech easier to use, more confused!

    A feature introduced with iOS 9 called thinning or slicing app app allows each device to download just the code and resources required by this device, resulting in smaller downloads and a better use of the storage on the device. Therefore the device is no longer the universal version of the application that can be installed on any device to transfer applications is no longer supported. I hope that Apple will bring some changes to how it works, but in the meantime, you can download past purchases from iTunes or activate the automatic shopping app downloads to ensure that iTunes has always the apps you want on your device. As long as you make sure that all of the apps are present and updates in iTunes before you attempt a restore there should be no loss of data. I cannot confirm, but it seems a way to recent update all data are restored and apps that are not in the library are waiting to download from the iTunes Store over Wi - Fi, in a similar way to the restoration of the iCloud way works.

    For more information on move your library and all the backups of device iOS out of your SSD storage space, see make a library of portable split .

  • Recent items in Vista does not update correctly

    I have a problem that the recent items on the Start Menu is not updated correctly.  There are a few documents out there, but there are many who don't are not who should be.  If I right click on the recent items and choose explore I can see a lot more files in the C:\Users\Pete\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent folder.

    For example, there are few. XLS and. DOC files that I opened recently but don't are not.  However when I explore the folder I can see a shortcut to the directory that contains the missing files.

    I tried many combinations of physically erase the folder, by activating / disabling the option elements recent etc, but nothing helped.

    Thanks in advance

    I had the same problem. I fixed it by deleting all entries, except the default entry, in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RecentDocs in the registry. There are a bunch of other entries which are numbered for each of the files in the list of recent items. and the entrance to MRUListEx. Delete it all. Unfortunately, there is no file name but only entered, HEX numbers and letters. After doing this, Windows has started listing the files in recent Articles that were not show up there before.

    I found that the problem has followed a couple of files that were present in recent Articles when I cleared the list a few weeks earlier. After these files are not present in recent items, but rather the shortcut to the folder appears. Also, I've found that the problem was with the actual files, not the folder. I opened the 2 files, Excel, and a Word document and choose Save under and added a 2 to name the document, save an exact copy of the documents. Each copy has appeared in recent and open items without any problems. Copies of rename the original name and overwrite the originals, reduced the problem. I searched the registry files to see if there's information about save them in a special place, but nothing found. They were only listed in the MRUlists for each of their applications, showing other open documents recently Excel and Word.

    Since I had made changes to the documents and saved the changes in copies that end in 2, I chose save as once again and replaced the original files with updated copies. Now my original files, with the update of information, see and open from the list of recent items.

  • Since the update Windows 10, my CS5 Photoshop created jpg are no longer visible in Windows Explorer (File Manager)

    Since the update Windows 10, my CS5 Photoshop created jpg are no longer visible in Windows Explorer (File Manager).  I have reset Photoshop like application default for jpg files, rebooted.  Nothing has changed.  The ideas people?

    Hi R_Kelly,

    Hidden folder/file settings was the first place, I checked and kept checking each new reboot.

    I have copied below my temporary solution I posted in another forum thread.

    See point 7.  I found a way to make it visible again.

    1. I can see all jpg files created before Win10 update AND all the jpgs created by other programs, other than Photoshops after Win 10 update.

    2 Photoshop cannot see the newly created Photoshop created jpg files in the file picker at all since Upgrade to Win 10.  I've never had a problem of invisibility of file before winning 10 update.  My hidden files were always checked to be visible.  However, Photoshop can open if listed files in a basic text file search in Windows Explorer in the path of the file "recently used".

    3. the files are not visible or clickable at all in Windows Explorer tree or the Photoshop file selector. They become open and visible when listed in a basic text file search in Windows Explorer in the path of the file "recently used".

    4 Microsoft Office applications can't see the new Photoshop created Jpg files in file, only pre Win 10 update pickers jpg created by other applications and versions.

    5. the problem occurs only with Photoshop jpg created after the Win 10 update.

    6. I checked the settings "Show hidden files, folders and files of the operating system", and they remain as they were, which allows all the hidden to visible objects.  I kept the visibility settings files in this way since the early 1990s.

    Temporary fix below *.

    7. I did yet another simple search of the text Windows Explorer, he finds invisible jpg files less all links 'recently used' who were there yesterday (2nd day after I created the files), I checked the location of file properties file and it entered the original file I saved their.  Using a right-click of the mouse on the file to bring up the menu actions and file properties, I was able to copy and then paste the file into another directory.  I jumped on the directories to see if it remains visible and he (Yes). The new copy is now visible to the pickers of file in Photoshop and Microsoft Office applications.

  • Muse not updated 7.4 to the latest version. Instead it takes me to a web page! Are older, paying users are no longer supported?

    Muse is not up-to-date 7.4 to the latest version. Instead it takes me to a web page (http://www.adobe.com/products/muse.html! Older users are no longer supported unless we buy EVERYTHING?

    I had cant with the technical service. If anyone else facing this problem, you must now download Adobe Creative Cloud from here: Get Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App & Adobe Application Manager

    Install it, sign in with the SAME log-in Adobe as the one you use for MUSE, then creative cloud will update to recognize that you pay for MUSE. Then you click on APPS and update it.
