• Physical NIC of VMNet0 absent from the list

  Hi all

  Workstation 10.0.3 build-1895310 (last of October 3, 14) hosted on Win 8.1 64 bit.

  When you attempt to configure bridged network I see the following:

  

  Under automatic settings the following is listed , but the NIC host is missing from the list and the "jumpered to:" drop-down list).

  NIC host protocols list Protocol VMware and its permits, but it just does not appear in the list in the virtual network Editor.

  

  I tried to re-setup of workstation several times, reset the virtual network settings by default, reinstall the service VMware Bridge Protocol on the NIC host, re - install and test with disabled Kaspersky but refuses to the NETWORK map appears. Should I actually a 2nd NIC physical should be able to fill with the NIC host, or am I wrong?

  Thanks for the help!

  A little paranoid I see, blocking NAT and host only IP addresses in the virtual network Editor screenshot!

  In any case have actually completely uninstalled Kaspersky to test whether the virtual network editor will enumerate the host physical NETWORK card?

  I have noted problems with various AV products that have put protocols in the network stack and they must usually be temporarily completely uninstalled and then install the VMware product and then reinstall the product AV.

• iTunes - compilations, absent from the list of Albums

  I have several compilations in iTunes (12.4.0.119) on my MacBook Pro.  These appeared in the list of albums of the library until now, but suddenly they no longer appear in the list of Albums.  They always appear under Gianni and recently added, but only with the single artist Albums appear in the list of Albums.

  Also has anyone seen this problem? I think that this only started happening after the last automatic update of the software a few days ago.

  In the version 12.4 iTunes compilations are hidden in the Album > grid side if the field sort by is set to something other than an artist.

• absent from the list of photo book

  OK, let's see if I can explain my problem.  I had all my photos stored on an external hard drive.  Having recently purchased Adobe PSE 9, I started to organize all my photos using PSE.  I got my pictures organized in the album categories and then broken down further into albums. For example, category: Halloween and then Halloween 2009, Halloween 2010, etc.  I download / saved my photos on photoshop.com. Now all my catalog names are still on the right side of the screen, but the albums in each category went.  In addition, the photos are always displayed in the media browser and they each have a green label that says that the photo is in a particular Album.  But I can no longer view my photos per album, I have to scroll all the 10,000 pictures to find the ones I want.

  How can I fix?

  It seems that all the categories/albums are in a State of collapse. You would need develop albums/categories from the albums Panel.

  Thanks for trying to help. Now my computer seems to be up-to-date.
  I followed your steps but MicrosoftFixit50202.msi did not like "my OS is incompatible. I use windows 8.  I couldn't run this in default or aggressive.
  I did go in Control Panel and disable antivirus and firewall Zone Alarm and reset Windows defender by default.

  I then returned to set up a clean boot and this time I managed to disable the true vector Internet Monitor (Zone Alarm) to run.
  I ran the reset troubleshooting of Windows with the same result as before is to say:

  Search for missing or corrupted - files detected
  I think I have restarted my computer at this stage and then tried to update again.
  It has not yet, but with the error, I got an error code and a link to help. I don't have not noticed this before. I followed the help and ran about 5 command prompts that have to do with the renaming of files I think.
  Then I tried updating again and this time 38 45 updates succeeded. I then ran the update again and it seemed to work on the other 7 updates.
  Although Windows Update said I was now updated, I was skeptical as when this whole thing started is started when I got the "windows installs updates" and then "failed to configure updates. Returning... etc"then I restarted my computer. At the start, there was no message on try to configure the updates, then, how do I know they are configured and working as it should?

  Do you have other accounts of users on this PC?  If you install this update from the main account?

  You should get the number of the update of the updated history list and then download the file here: Microsoft downloads.
  If sure that nothing else is running, and then install the update manually.  Give it a try and let us know the results.

• Windows Update has had the BAD update for my computer!

  Windows Xp Pro 32 bit, ie8. There was an update of the optional equipment, Trendnet ethernet adapter. I installed it. I lost my internet connection. I reinstalled my ethernet realtek card and my internet back. I realize, it's an optional update, but I try to update everything always. Now that I have disabled the adapter trendnet update is back on my list of update in windows update. I have scored for don't show this update and will have this irritating msg to restore hidden updates whenever I'll update. How this erroneous update occurred? Thanks for any help.

  It happened because you gave. Never install of optional hardware updates from MS Update. Usually, they will burn out your computer. Download the updates directly from the computer manufacturer site.
