Windows 7 updates have been a failure for the past two weeks.
The download of updates, restart computer, Setup starts and then message comes back saying it failed and returning from changes.
Hi Tassie8655,
· What is the error message or the error code you get?
This problem may occur if one of the security software and updates of Windows services are not started.
Follow the steps to check the error code.
1. click Start , and type Windows Update in Start the Search.
2. click on view Update history in the left pane.
3. law click on Update that failed to install and click on see Details.
Make a note of the error code and provide the same.
However, you can reset the Windows Update components, download the Microsoft fix - it from the link below and run, this automatically resets the components of Windows on the computer.
How to reset the Windows Update components?: http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058
I suggest that you temporarily disable the security software on the computer, and then run Windows updates. Make sure that you enable the security software on the computer after you run Windows updates.
If the problem persists always, however, try the steps manually described in the article.
You cannot install some programs or updates: http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/822798

My htomail account has been blocked twice in the past two weeks
Original title: Please help
My htomail account has been blocked twice in the past two weeks and nobody is Hotmail. I used my account for a day before he was blocked again. I can't get the email addresses of contact, and I find it very difficult to work around having no email. Why is the Help Center if not useful? Why are there no 'real' people to do something to help their customers? How can I get my account back now?

button refresh Foxfire did not work when clicked on for the past two weeks
button refresh Foxfire did not work when clicked on for the past two weeks
Hi, see controls customize Firefox, buttons and toolbarsand click on restore default settings.
If this does not help, Try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:
- Click the menu button
click Help
then select restart with disabled modules.
If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:
- On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
- On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
(you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."
If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.
When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

Hi hope someone can help? I have acrobat pro, 6 have worked well for the past two years but then just stopped working. Have reinstalled but still won't open, ronning windows 7. Help please! Janice
Hey janicem42177174,
Adobe does most support the installation and use of Acrobat 6 because it is a very old version that is not compatible with Windows 7.
I suggest you to please use the latest version of Acrobat 11.0.10 is perfectly compatible with your operating system with its functions and improved functions.
You can download a free trial version of 30 days of Acrobat from here:
Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Professional XI
Let me know how it goes

5.7 Lightroom will not import. I get this message: the instruction at 0x17f3f885 referenced memory at... Memory could not be read. This program has been flawless for the past 3 weeks.
Hello
You really need a little more information such as operating system, memory, etc.
Usually a mistake like this happens because a background process is running and interfere with the available RAM, not enough virtual memory (Windows), drivers of HW obsolete or just an incomplete installation.
Or, one of the biggest problems is add-ons in internet browsers.
Alternatively, another problem of Lightroom, no sufficient permissions on the directory where you import image files.
Please provide a little more information.

Daily Kos is a site that collects over the web and passes them along. To read the articles, I click it in the list. Suddenly, about 2 or 3 weeks ago, when I clicked on an item, the page came in white with a small block in the upper right corner, saying "allow." Now I have to click "allow" every time, instead of just go to the item when I click on it. What's past and how to fix it?
Enable the redirection page...? Many users seems to be turned on an accessibility function accidentally. To disable the block of redirection, you can use the Panel Advanced preferences page:
"3-bar" menu button (or Firefox) > Preferences > advanced
Under the mini general tab in the accessibility section, uncheck the box for "warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page.
What is fix?

Choosing a date, then to have this date fill in the next two weeks.
I have a form that has a start date, put end to date fields then 14 representing the next 14 days. I wish that she either auto fill all fields when you choose a date. For example, if I choose the start date of 01/01/2016 then the end date would be auto complete to 14/01/2016 then each field day below that would have filled in with 01/03/2016...01/14/2016 01/01/2016, 02/01/2016.
Currently, I have date pickers for each field and it works fine just painful.
Thanks for any help.
You should read these tutorials:
https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/working-with-date-and-time-in-Acrobat-JavaScript
https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/working-with-date-and-time-in-Acrobat-JavaScript-part-2
https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/working-with-date-and-time-in-Acrobat-JavaScript-part-3
Basically, the process is to use a custom calculation script to read the date entered, string to convert to a Date (using the util.scand method) object, to add X days (using the setDate method) and then print the new date (using the util.printd method).
If you are interested in a tool that will allow you to easily configure without writing code, check out this, I developed exactly for this purpose a while ago: Scripts custom Adobe: Acrobat - automatic Date calculation applies

It started with the link, I used to use, but also gives the same problem when I start from the hame yahoo page. It shows the home page and allows me to use the other links on this page, except my mail!
Maybe it's the kibosh. My understanding is that everyone using Hola belongs to a network share, and this could make your interchangeable connection details. Yahoo sites don't work well in this case.
Have you tried without it?

Windows Vista updates (12 April 2010) broke all the desktop shortcuts
On 13 April, I fist notice this problem. I managed to it is resolved according to restore my computer to a previous point prior to the windows vista update have been installed. I didn't create a new restore point and also forgot to uncheck "automatic installation of windows. A few days later, the same problem after updates have been installed again on April 15. Unfortunately, this time I don't have a restore point previous April 15. So, I restored it on next day 16, but not resolved the issue. So I uninstall all vista windows update installed on April 15 but did not help either.
Fortunately it affects only an admin user (user account that run windows update) all users are very well.
Any suggestions to solve this problem, much appreciated.
Kind regards
