• Dreamweaver (on Windows 7) does not connect to the server, IIS (v7) using "FTP over SSL/TLS...". »

  I am weather evauating to buy Dreamweaver CS6...

  Trial of Dreamweaver CS6 (on Windows 7) does not connect to the IIS server (v7) using "FTP over SSL/TLS (explicit encryption).  I have a NEW Godaddy SSL certificate installed on the IIS server.

  On the connection between States Dreamweaver: "server certificate expired or contains invalid data."

  I tried:

  -ALL Dreamweaver Server configuration options

  -L' use of multiple certificates (I tried 2048 and 4096-bit Godaddy SSL certificates)

  -Make sure the certificate "issued to the"domain name is my domain name. "

  I am able to connect without a problem with Filezilla, Filezilla equivalent affecting 'explicitly require FTP over TLS.  I can connect both using Microsoft Expression web.

  This has been discussed previously. I recommend reading my old thread for details:

  http://forums.Adobe.com/thread/889530

  But to make a long story short, Godaddy is incorrectly signed SSL certificates on shared servers.  The servers/ips/domains and the certificate do not match.  So DW and many other tools fail authenticate with Godaddy SSL connections.  Some users have stated that other tools FTP, such as Filezilla as you mentioned, bypass and automatically change your connection to insecurity, but DW is very picky.  Once you modify encryption against zero, the connection will be accepted.  Best solution is if you want a certificate SSL correctly signed move to another host because Godaddy refuses to admit that they are wrong with SSL certificates on their sites.  These warnings will appear also to your users if you have a store saying the SSL certificate does not match the domain/ip and this can make users checking in a very nervous showcase.

• Windows 7 does not connect to the new wifi networks

  I have a problem with connecting to wifi networks. My laptop only connect to wifi networks that I have already connected to in the past but does not connect to all nine. The computer will recognize the but won't give me the possibility to type in any password. For example, I can connect correctly to the House and my moms place as wifi passwords are already saved on my computer. However if I go to a friends house their wifi signal will appear but when I go to connect I will not have to enter a password, the mouse cursor will simply show it to load a few seconds and then nothing happens.

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded
  on your system. For each driver in the list, additional useful information is
  Poster: load address of the driver, description, version, product name,.
  company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit Maker as replacements and system manufacturer of device which are
  the most recent. Control Panel - write - graphics card - device manager
  the brand and complete model of your video card - double click - tab of the driver-
  Note the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing
  MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard
  If there are 3rd party with their own software and drivers and the other main device drivers
  you have.

  Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restore)
  and site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get the manufacturer and device
  their latest versions. (Look for the system to update the BIOS, Chipset and software updates
  Site of the manufacturer here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN -.
  REBOOT after each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you are
  installation actually appears. This is because that some rollback of drivers before the
  later is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot.
  Make sure that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW to the device makers DO NOT RUN THEIR
  SCANNER - check manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using
  the above methods is preferable to ensure the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system
  and device manufacturers are located)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable driver facilities
  in the updates of Windows, which leaves on Windows updates, but it will not be installed
  pilots who are generally older and cause problems. If updates provides a new
  driver then hide it (right click on it) and then go get new ones manually if
  you want.

• Update of Windows XP does not work, how do I stop the Office 07/10 updates?

  For these last months, the web version of Windows Update does not work with XP. When you click on the button for Express or custom installation, the stalls of system looking for updates. So I had to put windows to warn me of updates instead of going on the site, but now it keeps wanting to download me updates for Office 2007 and 2010, but I do not own these products (I use Office 2003).  I could not stop, even when I ticked the box does not warn me of those more. Finally I went to the site and found an option to disable Microsoft Update, which said I could always download the updates to the site, but I can't because he's trying to force me to re - download Microsoft Update.

  What is going on?  I don't like the new Microsoft Update as it keeps nagging me to download updates for the products that I have not yet owned. How can I update Windows XP only?  This is very fustrating.

  Hi Steve,.

  Follow these steps.

  Go to Start | Settings | Control Panel and double click on automatic updates. I'll explain why later.

  Then, tick the option at the bottom to turn off automatic updates, and then click apply/OK.

  Then, go to start, run, copy and paste this command and click OK: services.msc

  In the list of Services, you can see Background Intelligent Transfer Service ?

  Here's a pix what he looks like.

  

  If it is not listed, follow these steps to register the BITS service.

  Open the Windows search tool, copy / paste the following text, and then click Search: qmgr.dll

  Research should show this file in the following locations:

  C:\Windows\System32
  C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386
  C:\WINDOWS\system32\bits

  You might only see qmgr.dll in C:\WINDOWS\system32 depending on your configuration.

  Then, go to start, run and copy/paste: regsvr32 qmgr.dll and click OK

  Do the same with this file: regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll

  Reboot the system and then copy / paste this command into the field run:
  %windir%\System32\rundll32.exe setupapi, InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %windir%\inf\qmgr.inf

  If you are prompted to insert the Windows installation CD, ignore this and in the dialog below, replace the path C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386

  If you could only see the file in C:\WINDOWS\system32, change the path to that instead.

  Restart the PC and then go to the Services and you should be able to see BITS in the list.

  Double click on it and then on the general tab, click the Start button to start the service manually. This is just a test to make sure that it works correctly.

  If you get 2 error: cannot find the specified file, click on start, then run again and copy / paste the following command, and then click OK:
  Tracking Add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BITS\Parameters /v ServiceDll /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d %windir%\System32\qmgr.dll

  Reboot again and try once more to start the PIECES. It should work fine now, but in the unlikely case where it fails again, run the following command, and then press ENTER:
  Reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup

  Reboot once more and then do the following.

  Go to this link and install the IE8 December Update:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-GB/download/details.aspx?ID=41404

  If you use IE7, use this link instead:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-GB/download/details.aspx?ID=41442

  Finally, go to the Windows Update site and you should be able to download normally.

  If this is the case, re - enable automatic updates in Control Panel.

• Windows Vista does not start upward, with success since the closure complete

  Hello world

  I actually had this problem for a long time, but I'm just now to a point where I'm ready to take a lead in fixing it.

  I can't identify when it started, but Windows Vista does not start upward, with success of a full stop. He gets to the screen where, in general, the green bars will travel across the screen, but the green bars will not come. The screen looks dim and sits there, with the text of the copyright of Microsoft Corporation. So, after not having on the mound, I have to manually shut down the computer by holding down the power button. When I try to start again, told me to go through the Startup Repair tool. If I jump the repair, I just have to meet the same problem - a computer that will not go beyond the screen "green bar".

  So, I do the Startup Repair, and told me what I do for the restoration of the system. Windows starts normally after the restoration.

  Don't forget, this happens from a full stop. To remedy this, I just never completely shut down my computer. I left running and back just at the beginning of the day. The computer may start restart, it just may not start with a full stop.

  Given the start of repair takes, literally, around 4 or 5 hours of full stops complete, accidental or power outages are a nightmare, I am obliged to wait 5 hours to get access to the computer. Fortunately, I have my laptop.

  If someone has encountered this? I saw people talking about the loop of startup repair, but that's not the point, I have. I have yet to see any discussion of my specific problem.

  Thanks in advance!
