Windows Update says it is looking for updates but does not update?
Windows 7 on my PC has the appearance of looking for updates en but never actually implemented to date.
All the updates of Windows started failing on 26/09/15 and the last attempt known to day anything has 22/02/16. My computer seems to work very well, but I know that's NOT guarantee that no updates have occurred in the month!
I ran to the diagnosis of Windows Update tool twice and it did not fix the problem.
Help, please! I don't know how to solve this problem and I am very worried.
Thank you.
Proceed as follows: Set "Never search updates" automatic updates, and then restart Windows. Install KB3161608.

I just create my new Single Edition App, but Apple rejected my application because:
"We found your application uses iOS identifier for advertising but does not include.
feature ad. This is not consistent with the terms of iOS Developer
"License program, as required by the App Store Review Guidelines."
What does that mean? What should I do? I already created another unique edition correctly...
Rebuild your simple editing application and then try again to Apple. We have released a fix for this Friday.

Windows 8 began to harass for activation, but does not turn on
I bought and installed win8 on my desktop 1 year ago. Because about 1 month ago it will periodically suspend any program I'm running with a screen that says:
Activate Windows
Windows cannot enable right now. Try to activate windows later. If the problem persists, please contact Microsoft customer online to activate Windows. »
Then I click the Activate button. A few small points of spins in a circle, THEN nothing IS is PAST. I click on Contact Microsoft Customer Service and Support online and nothing DON'T get PAST. I have it EVERY TIME I AM being HARASSED BY THIS SCREEN. So I just click on the top left corner of the screen to remove it and continue with what I'm doing BUT IT ALWAYS COMES BACK.
My internet connection is fine.
When searching online I discovered that you can run the phone activation by running slui.exe 4 so I do. After you have selected UK as my country of residence, this error "an error has occurred. Alternatively, you can contact Microsoft by phone to help solve this problem. " When I close this error box activation of the window by window phone appears and tells me what phone number to call, and gives it me the numbers to provide when asked to step 2 of the process: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. This unsurprisingly DOES NOT WORK WHEN I GET IT on THE PHONE.
I CAN'T PUT INTO WORDS HOW MUCH AN INCONVENIENCE IT IS FOR ME AND MY FAMILY.
I want to talk with a man on the phone. Despite the various messages appear telling me IT IS No. WAY TO TALK to someone to SORT THIS OUT.
I upgraded from xp for win8 and it was without a doubt the system of exploitation of bugs mounted more unstable I've ever used (and I've used windows ME)
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME.
Hello
You can contact the Microsoft Phone activation service and check if you are able to get your copy of active Windows.

Look for iOS parameters does not show
Hello
Flash Pro CS6
When I click on the settings icon change App, nothing happens.
The only way to challenge is the movement of the file available somewhere else or change its name.
I'm tired to do every time I want to put the window.
Is there any solution for this?
Hello
Thank you for your detailed answer, but I don't want to use the XML, it would be the same. Whenever I want to change something, I would need to open XML.
the problem is not me not knowing how to do the settings on the XML, this is where the dialog available named 'settings for iOS', which aims to make adjustments in an easier way for developers/designers and this dialog box does not appear.
I'm tired to change the available file name in order to bring this dialog box.
If this does not work well on CS6, there should not be such option in CS6, it's as simple as that.
I had to install CreativeCloud and things work in CC, but for those who have the same problem and using CS6, the only thing I can say is GOOD LUCK.
Thank you.

Hello
We have introduced an application using DPS Enterprise and had this error. I saw on the forum that it came early this year and a fix has been released, so no reason for this again? We use the latest versions.
Graham
Apple sometimes incorrectly reports apps with this error on review. There is no identifier advertising in use at the DPS. The dismissal of the appeal and tell them the app includes iOS identifier for advertising and ask them to check again.

Mail says it is downloading of mail but does not appear
When I open the Mail I often get the message ' download 'X' to 'Y' messages '. The value of is usually is 66. The value of X, the last time I did was 37. Download thermometer shows progress, but no new emails are appearing. I think that there is no 66 emails, download, so I'm closing Mail. When I reopen it Mail, the message does not reappear is there 66 new emails in my "Inbox" or "Junk" folder
I'm afraid that, while "downloading" is underway, something else is the download or download data are. I use OS X on a Macbook Pro 10.11.6.
Anyone else run into this? Is this a problem or just a gene?
Thank you
I don't know if I have the same problem or not, on my iMac OSX 10.11.6. I'm afraid that mail which would have said that it is "Download" (and does not appear anywhere), is found in cyberspace somewhere!
I don't want to lose personal mail!

Synchronization of not able to Android phone to desktop.
HI lefty83,
It's been a while since this question has been answered to, however, if this problem occurs again, we are happy to investigate.There are two controls:
- Are two devices on version 29 or higher?
- Have you recently changed the password? And if so has the connected devices you asked to reconnect? If this isn't the case, please do to create a new brand in cert.
- Are the parameters of the account on the Android set to sync automatically or manually?

Windows 8 says my headphones are disconnected, and they are not!
Oh, God. I am so Mad.
Well. Yesterday I installed Windows 8 x 64 in my PC, leaving Windows 7 x 32 behind.I had until now of speakers and headphones NGS NGS works PERFECTLY. While the speakers were connected to the rear plugs of the PC, the headset was connected to the front ones. I had configured their thanks to Realtek HD to work at the same time, if I turned on the speakers, while the headphones were still on.The headset includes a microphone, they have two cables, for reading green and Pink for the record, and they ARE connected to their respective catches.But I changed to Windows 8 and everything went wrong. Now, Windows detects my speakers, but does not detect the headset. They are connected.They AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARE. Y. Y. Y. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHHHH.But playback Audio convenience store in Windows says they are not. God. I uninstalled the drivers again and again once and again and again and again. Literally. Five times. And Windows Update automatically reinstalled them when I restarted the PC. And I don't know that they are good drivers because they have the same name as those had from my PC to Windows 7.I tried to put the helmet as the predetermined unit, but I can't. The button is unpushable (in gray) because how the * you want to set as predetermined something that cannot be detected? Well, I need help.I already checked article "No sound in Windows" and:-The sound card is freaking great.-The helmet is screwed connected.-The power and volume are high and on fracking. I'm not THIS delay, LOL.In any case, thank you for your attention.P.S.: They ARE connected!I'm SO bad * ss.
