Windows 8 store listing Multiple PCs with the same name - how to remove?

Hi there... when I go to the store in Windows 8, in my account settings, I see four listed computers.  Two of them are named similarly (I reinstalled Windows 8 a few weeks after I had first and kept my the same PC name).

I would like to remove one of the PC that has a duplicate name, but I don't know that one to remove.  Y at - it an easy way to see what is the PC I'm on right now, and what is the old PC?  I'm paranoid that to remove that incorrect it will cause my apps on this PC to stop working.

Thank you!

In fact, I just understand how do.  Here's what worked for me:

  • Rename your computer from the desktop.  Right click on my computer > properties > etc.
  • You will need to reboot for the change to take effect.
  • Now, go to the Windows store and download an application.  Any application.  It may be a free, or one that you have already purchased.  Is not serious.
  • Once the download is complete, you can return to your account in Store, and you'll see your list of computers is updated with your newly renamed computer.
  • You can now delete the duplicate computer registration.
  • Once it is removed, follow the steps above to rename your computer in its original name.

It seems that you must actively download an app from the store in order to force it to update the list of the PCs in your bank account settings.

  • How to register multiple files with the same name with different num revision

    Hello

    Can someone please tell me, how to register several different files with the same name with the revision number using the RIDC API.

    For example:
    First of all I will be saved in a file (TestFile.txt) in a content server with revision number 1 using the RIDC API in application of the ADF. Then after awhile, will change the same line (TestFile.txt) check-in and once again. I tried to check the same file several times, however first Check-in correctly in server showing revision 1, so that Check-in same file again, her gives no error message, and also its not reflecting only not to the server. Single file (TestFile.txt) reflecting on the server.

    How to implement this feature using the RIDC API? Any suggestions would be helpful.

  • How to name multiple files with the same name?

    HI, I'm supposed to write the names of files for an agency and I noticed that all the photographers name the files of the same Gallery of the same name, I guess it's renaming the bridge batch? TXS

    Yes, use the bridge to rename lots. I would recommend using the text that you want (add a _ at the end) and then add a number to four digits of the sequence.

  • several devices on the network with the same name

    I want to install Windows 7 OS computers on a domain with Small Business SERVER 2003.  Curiously, I see all the computers on the network, where I should be able to, but one of them WK02011, is not accessible from all Windows 7 systems because there are multiple devices with the same name on the network according to a diagnosticn check.  WK02011 is visible and accessible from other systems on the network that are runjning XP OS.  There is only one device named WK02011 on the network.  I don't have this problem with any other XP system - that is - I can see and access all of the other XP machines on the network with the exception of WK02011.  I can't access WK2011 from the server and the server indicates that it is multiple devices with the same ID.  Rename the XP would be complicated because of having to re - set up the service to the customer and then turn around and install 7 OS in the workstation in the coming days.

  • How to open multiple files with the same extension in one program from the Explorer

    I frequently receive several JPG (or whatever extension) files to my clients.  On Windows XP, I could just highlight the files I want to open, and then click Open.  They would be so open to 1 program cascading.  This made it easy when comparing many images.  If I do the same thing in Windows 7, it opens the default program several times and puts 1 image of each open program.  It is Paint Shop Pro in my case.  Thus, instead of so-called images 5 open cascading in Paint Shop Pro... the computer open Paint Shop Pro 5 times with 1 image of each open version of the program.  I tried this search like crazy, but cannot find the right thread for an answer.  Most of the threads are on the opening of the different file types.  My question is only about the opening of multiple files with the same exact file inside 1 free program extension.

    Is this the same version of Paint Shop?

    One thing you might try is to open Paint Shop, then select and drag all the files in this window of the paint shop.  Various programs to manage this type of action differently from the DDE, but it might give you the expected results.

    I have an account I can not connect to after my daughter it has disconnected. I tried to reset the password, but I get an email on my account to other girls: S (same email)
    I guess I have 3 accounts with the same email, but only the latter can created recover!
    Not even my main Skype has a chance

    I'm not 100% sure but it is most likely that I used the same email to whoever I have to reset - what can I do?

    In fact, this morning I managed to log on to the account of an iPad without frills but the pc refuses to sign ^ ^ ^? "Skype cannot connect" - what is happening?

    I also discovered that I could connect via a browser, but not via the Skype program... So I uninstalled and installed again and it's working now...
    I've now changed the email so I have 3 accounts with the same email address as Skype seems not to be able to manage multiple accounts with the same email!

  • 3070 connectivity problem - multiple Accespoints with the same SSID

    Hi all

    I have a problem with my printer HP Deskjet 3070 printer all-in-one.

    I have 2 accespoints with the same SSID for better coverage of the pit of the wireless home network.

    For some reason any my HP printer keeps losing wireless connection when the 2 accespoints are rising.

    I use a different frequency for the 2 accespoints channel and it works fine with all other wireless devices.

    I did that a DHCP are used, r, but in fact it doesn't matter because the printer uses a static IP (192.168.0.3)

    When the two AP is the printer loses wirelesss connectivity. (The blue led will blink)

    If I take one of the accespoints offline, the printer becomes available.

    Is this a problem on my end or a problem of software/firmware printer?

    Kind regards

  • Server data store will automatically get updated when the new file (with the same name) is placed in the landing area


    Hi guys,.

    The data store server-side will get automatically updated when a new file with the same name is loaded in the landing area?

    for example

    1 data store created for server-side get the file named UK.xls (he has 5 rows)

    2 snapshot created for the above data store

    3. created with the snapshot process

    After that if I remove 2 lines from the same file and load again to the landing (with the same name). So by re-running the process will take the last file OR do I need to reload the file in the data store every time when there is a change in the file. We also tried with option to work but the last file was not picking up.

    Any help will be really appreciated.

    Please lets us know your updates.

    Please advice

    Thank you

    VT

    Hello

    When you create a snapshot, you create a snapshot whose task (provided that you use a data store server-side) can be run from a job. To refresh the data, run the snapshot in a job task. If you create a task at the time the snapshot and the processes that use it, they will automatically connect and will be 'upstream' data through the snapshot in the process. You can then choose whether it would be appropriate to write the snapshot or not (for the effectiveness of performance if you want to do the straight through processing) by activating or deactivating the bucket of data staged that the snapshot written to. The snapshot in the work task means that the data is refreshed.

    For the work of design to the Director, you can refresh the snapshot by running again it manually in the context menu.

  • CF8 cfquery multiple table join with the same names of columns - default

    This seems to be a defect in the CF8 cfquery object. I'm at a loss as to a solution or a good work around. With regard to the substance, this query is generated dynamically on the fly based on what is happening in it a user. This isn't the most elegent SQL but work and return all columns. The app itself is a data viewer to look at the logs. Here is an example of a query being generated.

    Select *.

    of web_trans, web_info_trans, web_res_trans

    where (web_info_trans.trans_dte > = '' 2008-12-1)

    and web_info_trans.trans_dte < '' 2008-12-2)

    and (web_info_trans.trans_dte = web_trans.trans_dte)

    and (web_info_trans.trans_num = 5060345)

    and (web_info_trans.trans_num = web_trans.trans_num)

    and (web_res_trans.trans_num = 5060345)

    and (web_res_trans.trans_num = web_trans.trans_num)

    and (web_trans.web_trans_cde = "NTUI")

    and (web_trans.web_status_cde = 'P')

    and (web_trans. TRANS_NUM < 5060347)

    order of web_trans. TRANS_NUM / / desc

    These three tables contain a similar column called ZIP_CDE. They contain different values, and when this query is executed in Microsoft Query Analyzer results are displayed correctly. Run this same query SQL with CFQUERY and the value of one of the other tables (web_trans) will eventually replace the value for the other columns called ZIP_CDE. The exact amount columns are retruned only values some how get corrupted.

    This is a defect of cf8 is a book autour or an update that resolves this problem that I may have missed?

    Thank you for the ideas.

    Thus it seems still as a default since CF is essentially where, except for the return value play. Other query tools return results correctly so for me, it turns out be CF bug at a certain level.

    Actually I'm swinging to agree with you here, but not for the same reason.  CF actually * is * get all the columns back (as you say), it just doesn't expose a way to tell the difference between a column called 'x' and an another column called 'x', because the way to access the data in columns is simple queryname [columnName] [rowNumber] (or a Variant fo this, but all the amount of variations to that or abbrev. it).  This code shows how he has all four columns of the original two queries (being a stand-in for tables, in this case):


    Q1 = queryNew("");
    Q2 = queryNew("");
       
    queryAddColumn (q1, 'id', [1,2,3,4]);
    queryAddColumn (q1, "data", ["one", "two", "three", "four"]);
    queryAddColumn (q2, 'id', [1,2,3,4]);
    queryAddColumn (q2, "data", ["tahi", "rua", "toru", "wha"]); It's Maori, in case you are interested


    SELECT *.
    Q1, q2
    WHERE q1.id = q2.id

    So CF knows there are four columns (a call getMetadata (q3) get also demonstrates this), but it does not expose a way to approach the second (or even greater) column of the same name.  This is the bug/shortfall.

    However, relying on an underlying coldfusion.sql.QueryTable method, you can rename the columns, so:

    Then you're OK.

    I would be normally reluctant to recommend doing this, because these methods change from version to version of CF, but it's your call whether this approach will help you.

    To be honest, I'm with Owain who, even in SQL one generally doesn't work with columns with the same name, an alias them qualified with a table name/alias. As the table columns from of is not returned by SQL with the result set, it must be evidence against this by folding the columns in the first place.

    Also, I wonder at the bottom of the extraction of data, you don't really know the structure, that is to say, do SELECT *.  How can you know not even that is ours as the first column, second column, etc.?  I don't think that SQL applies in fact a contract that, t - it?  (I don't know).

    What are you actually do here?

  • Why do an update with the same name every day to security update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2467175)

  • DISABLE "there is already a file with the same name to this place.

    Window 7. 64 bit. How do you turn OFF DISABLE, CANCEL, DELETE, STOP the pop-up 'MOVE the FILE'?

    As a user since the days of DOS command lines and having had a routine all the way through to XP, this new window is one of the most annoying pop ups for an experienced user. If it isn't a swith toggle check box or an other power selection for this message, there must be. And if there is, you did it quite hard to find.

    The dialog box that appears in Windows 7 that starts with "there is already a file with the same name to this place. It lists then the three choices - "Copy and replace", "Do not copy" and "copy, but keep both files.

    I managed several libraries of forms which oblige me to replace the files throughout my day. I make a copy of the file I replace first of all, for archival purposes and this pop-up box is, well, it's boring. There must be a way to disable.

    This box comes up to move files and to copy the files.

    Any help in these turn off would be appreciated.

    See you soon.
