Will there be a final update 'Roll-Up' aka, SP4 for XP?

Hello

We all agree that there is a LOT of PC out there still on XP and it will continue to run XP for a considerable time for reasons very very good, but that all support for XP ending early April 2014 (40 days from'm) and no new update's for XP beyond then.

I wonder if anyone (Microsoft espeially) knows what will happen to the update service?

Will he continue to run so that the existing updates are stil available, or is it just turned off?

If she's going to be off Microsoft will publish a downloadable 'roll-up' of all updates since SP3 (let's call him SP4 or SP3 + for the sake of argument)?

If she won't do, what has Microsoft to tell all those who will continue to need to rebuild some XP machines (i.e. reinstall XP from scratch) because Franck and applications these systems launches DO NOT operate under 8 (now that Windows 7 has been killed as well)?

As it is, if I rebuild an XP machine (a good example is that we have executed a VERY VERY dear spectrograph, the manufacturer that no longer exists so we can run it only under XP) how do I apply all of the post SP3 updates? Upgrade the computer to a later version of windows is not an option, because it would mean throwing dozens of £K to a value of spectrograph in the tray.

Any ideas would be appreciated and meet a concrete from the mouth of the horse (Microsoft) the best of all.

George

(P.S. When Windows 8 will be abandoned?)

1 Windows Update will continue to make it available before April 8, 2014 updates for XP.

2. you make a disk image of your machine XP from Apriul 8, 2014.  You can then use this image to restore the machine should be somehow damaged.

3. If you now have the ability to rebuild an XP machine, this means that you have a genuine XP install CD of the little variety.  You have to use that to create an integrated install CD that incorporates the sp3 and all post-sp3 updates (as of April 8, 2014).  What follows is a combination of advice from contributor frequent Xircal and me:

I suggest "slipstreaming" of your original XP installation CD with SP3 and all the patches and fixes that have been released. In this way, you don't have to keep download them again if things go pear shaped.

To integrate your XP installation media, you need the following.

  1. The original Windows XP installation CD.
  2. Blank a DVD - RW or DVD-R.
  3. nLite is a free application that integrates SP3, patches, fixes, etc.
  4. IMGBurn burning tool a free CD to create the slipstreamed XP installation CD.
  5. Service Pack 3 stand alone Installer
  6. Enough space on your hard drive to copy the installation CD Windows XP together.

nLite works by extracting the content of the SP3 installation program and their integration in the existing files that you copied from your Windows XP installation disc to a folder somewhere on your hard drive.

The nLite site contains a step by step the value of screenshots to guide you through the process of creating the installation disc reworked.

IMGBurn can burn files to a DVD - RW or DVD - r blank

You can wait until April 8, but since this will be the last Patch Tuesday, after which the support will cease.

In addition to the list of Xircal, you might consider adding a step 5a to collect post-sp3 updates.  See--> http://xdot.tk/updates.html

Otherwise, after obtaining an operational system with sp3 using your sp3 slipstreamed installation CD, you will have to visit Windows Update and download lot of material.  These updates will be available via Windows Update after April 8, 2014.

    I recently restored my Vista PC for copy of factory and re-applied Windows updates.

    Geographical area: New York, USA.

    If it was you
    You can switch to an application made by Google like Gmail to access your account (recommended) or change your settings to https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps so that your account is no longer protected by modern security standards.

    For more information, see https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255.

    There may be an update, it is highly debated. "modern safety standard" Google are trying to force all power is a web standard not a standard mail. To work properly, the application should act as a browser. Something of a security problem for an email client that is not a browser.

    They mention Outlook or Thunderbird, as they are the soloists. The truth is there is not an email on the planet other than Google apps web client in a browser or on a mobile device that meet the standard. Want your Yahoo or Hotmail account to collect your messages to Gmail... No, they are less secure and in this function. Wish that Google can use to retrieve the messages of others... wow they use the less secure approach to POP and IMAP with password authentication.

    But Google now have your phone number to add to their gold mine limited personal information to serve adds with.

    The bottom line is to enable less secure apps. They are in line with standards applications. They are not less safe, they do not respect arbitrary authentication standard Googles.

  • Will there be a direct upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 8 final version?

    Migration to Windows XP 8

    Will there be a direct upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 8 final version?  If so, are there details around this yet?

    If by "direct" you mean that you don't have to reinstall your applications, then almost certainly this option will be available.

    If you simply mean "l will be able to use an upgrade rather than a full license" - it's a lot more muddy waters, but I suspect that MS is going to cut the rug under the judicious XP and only allow upgrades from Vista and Win7.

  • I have Windows 7 Edition home premium installed 32-bit update. How can I upgrade to 64-bit? Will there be problems of validation so I re-install from scratch?

    I have Windows 7 Edition home premium installed 32-bit update. How can I upgrade to 64-bit? Will there be problems of validation so I re-install from scratch?

    If you have purchased a retail package, it should include the disk for Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Otherwise, you can download a backup copy at the following link and use the same product key that allows you to enable the 32-bit version. Its a possibility, you may need to reactivate by phone, see below for instructions:

    You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

    Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

    Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  • Will there be any attempt to ADOBE to mitigate the "FLASH Update", twice a week, on all browsers, on all platforms?

    in my house, we run 3 win laptops, Win 2 tablets, 2 desktop computers Win, 2 SmartPhones Win, an iPad and an iPhone (as well as 2 Linux boxes).

    Now, you might say, OH, right there is your problem - I agree, this IS my problem.

    I wish I didn't have to run all of these machines, and 3 or 4 different browsers EACH requires different FLASH implementations--but, please, don't bother to argue this case.

    However, if FLASH needs updated, I have to spend more than an hour, sometimes for days at a time, just to get current FLASH!

    Part of this issue is that update 3 or 4 steps (in office), you must monitor - this seems very inefficient. (I am aware of the security implications)

    The situation is really impossible and considering FLASH is uninstalled on all systems, just to remove the headache - and costs (my time > potentially $100 / week X 52 weeks = eek!... for FLASH, really?)

    For comparison - my windows machines of updated (daily, or more) the operating system, applications, updates of malware, etc., without having to restart automatically in the background.

    What should do?

    Hello

    We anticipate to releases once a month.  Cases where we push several updates in a single week (or month) are made because a security hole has been found.  Our top priority is keeping our clients safe course.  We are working around the clock (and most weekends and holidays) to make sure get out us a fix to our customers as soon as POSSIBLE when such problems occur.  We know keeping up-to-date is difficult but you have a few options to choose from that will relieve the pain.

    My first recommendation would be to select "Allow Adobe to install updates (recommended)" in the Advanced tab of the control panel Flash Player.  Alternatively, you can also choose this option during the installation of Flash Player.

    Once selected, all your machines and browsers get more updates silently installed without any user interaction within 24 hours of an update made available.  There will be a few updates (usually quarterly) you will see a notification dialog box appear. They occur generally when a new major version is made available.  You can choose either manually install via this dialog box, or you can simply reject this dialogue and we will silently update you within 45 days.

    You can also switch your browser to Google Chrome, in which case Flash Player is built in.  No need to update, Google does it for you when they push their automatic updates.  Chrome is available for Mac, Win, Linux and of course, ChromeOS.

    If you have Windows 8, you can use Internet Explorer.  Flash Player for IE is integrated into Windows 8 and customers receive updates using the standard Windows Update service.

    On Linux, I recommend once again using Google Chrome.  If you need the NPAPI plugin, then I use one of the services of the distribution update and install Flash like this.

    Thank you

    There is NO selection update software on my phone! How are Iphone 3 # IOS updated?

    It may not be this difficult OR the answer is "It cannot be upgraded" - which is?

    The model number you have listed is an iPhone 4, which can be upgraded to iOS 7.1.2. To have the option to update software on the phone, you need at least iOS 5, otherwise you will need to use iTunes on your computer sync to perform the upgrade.

    I received a message from the installer that four of my extensions will be disabled when I install Firefox 11.0. I tried to find these updates of the extension, but could not.

    The XULRunner extension is seen as a malware, so you probably better should remove this extension of your current configuration.

    Java Console extensions are not necessary.

    You only need the extension of the Java Console (Tools > Modules > Extensions) If you want to check and debug Java applets.

    You can uninstall and remove extensions of the Java Console, you do not need to run Java applets.

    See:

    There should be an update to the Norton toolbar that is compatible with Firefox 11 (do not know Firefox 12 which will be released in the coming days, probably tomorrow, for some limited users.

    There seems to be a bit of a problem past, especially with older models of iPad 2. Some people have reported success after that restore their device via iTunes, for others that it has not worked and all they get is a message "bring it in an apple store.

    Since it affects a lot of people, I think it's safe to say that the problem lies in the range of Apple. But I don't think it is recognized or no matter what put forward fix.

    You can try to restore your device, or you may just be stuck waiting to see if a fix comes out.

  • Why HP will not be on an update of their Intel HD 3000 graphics card?

    Hey everybody!

    I like to play world of Warcraft on my DV7 portable entertainment and they just made an update of last week.  Now they tell me that my graphics card is outdated.  I went on the Intel site and there has been some updates since the last time that my graphics card has been updated in 2011.

    I read that you can do an update from the Intel site since HP customizes all their ups drivers and I don't understand why HP did not actually updates the graphics card so long when they prefetch wow on their laptops.    The game world is constantly evolving and needs these updates to continue to play without any problems.

    Does anyone have a solution to my problem or suggestions?

    Thank you!

    First do me a favor and just to be sure, look in under Graphics Device Manager and tell me what you see. If it is switchable, you will have two devices it. You must also have a nVidia or AMD Catalyst Control Center in the programs list. If you have any of these, then you have no switchable graphics and we can proceed to install the latest drivers from Intel.

    This is the driver package you need:

    Drivers you need

    It gives instructions on how to make the 'force' or manual installation of the graphics driver.

    http://www.Intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-022355.htm

    As stated in the pick instructions the pilots .zip version. They were dated August 2013 and later for the HD 3000. I have looked at some sites WOW talk about new updates and you don't be surprised if the update of the pilots is not all you need. There is an exchange of views that the game may have gotten too demanding for integrated video chips and your Intel HD 3000 can be up to manipulate the game more playable resolutions and with decent video features. But before we go there we will try update the driver. Don't forget that you understand before you pull the trigger on this. Post back if you need help most.
