• Cannot download for Media Center tv guide - says download but no results?

  Media Center seeems to work properly on the new Windows 7. No problem with the display of television channels or other records, but I can't seem to get a guide to download. The program says the guide is obsolete and you propose to download the ads but never seems to finish and no descriptions or check names are displayed. How can I fix this?

  Hi mcfat,.

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

  (1) you get an error during the download?

  For now I suggest you to download the latest announcements of guide manually and see if it gives any error or that the download is finished successfully.

  Follow the steps below to download the lists guide manually.

  You can configure Windows Media Center Guide lists auto update, but you can also download the latest Guide information manually.

  Method 1:

  1. on the start screen, go to tasks, click settings, click TV, click Guide, and then get latest Guide listings.

  2. When prompted, select Yes to begin to download the Guide listings. You are notified when the update of the Guide is complete. You can continue to use Windows Media Center and the Guide while new Guide information is being downloaded.

  Access the link below for more information on the above steps.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/download-updated-Guide-listings-in-Windows-Media-Center

  If you have any question by downloading manually too, then try Method 2 and see if that can deal with the issue.

  Method 2:

  (1) close Media Center
  2) click on the start menu, choose run and type cmd
  (3) run the command regsvr32.exe atl.dll
  (4) run the command C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehSched /unregServer
  (5) run the command/service C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehSched
  (6) runs the C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRecvr /unregServer command
  (7) run the command/service C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRecvr
  (8) runs the C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRec.exe /unregServer command
  (9) executes the command C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehRec.exe/regserver

  (11) runs the command C:\WINDOWS\eHome\ehmsas.exe/regserver

  step by step guide to download from a DVD on USB

  Hello

   
  You can try the following steps
   
  1. Insert your data DVD in a DVD player. Note: DVD must be a DVD-R or DVD - RW that was created for the storage of files. Cannot copy DVDs manufactured in series with videos or software on them.
  2. open the contents of the DVD by going to the 'Computer' utility and then double-clicking on the DVD. You should see all the data files
   
  3. connect your USB to the computer, and then open it in the same way that you opened your data DVD in the previous step.
   
  4. place the USB window and the disc data side by side. Then highlight the files that you want to copy by left-clicking with your mouse and then dragging the marquee on the icons of file you want.
   
  5 drag the icons highlighted in the window of data DVD to the USB drive window. A box appears stating that a file transfer is in progress. Once this window disappears, the file transfer is complete, and you can disconnect your USB and remove the DVD data disc tray.
   
  You can also try copying the data from the DVD, and then transfer to the USB key.

• Cannot download apps - constantly says that cc has lost functionality I have re installed several times and used the cc cleaning tool - HELP please not very impressed with not be able to use a new customer applications!

  Hi all

  New customer to CC, cc said constantly that he lost the functionality and to re - install, I have done this several times and used the CC cleaning tool. What's the point of having CC if you cannot use this?

  Thanks for your reply, but I spent some time with support online yesterday which has managed to make me sort, I do not have a UPDATER AAM file, I could not delete the contents of the OOBE folder either, I had to rename the folder creative cloud. I was sent then the application manager - who was then updated to the new until I'm able to get apps. Long-term, but it worked. I tried the procedure you have above, just not all the steps worked for me. Thanks to the Member of the support staff who helped me, I have been literally pulling my hair out!

• Have (I think) downloaded the trial version of elements on Win 7 PC, but does not work

  At running the Adobe downloader all night and it appeared at about 1.5 GB of download of program elements. Now there is no sign of the files of the program or a Setup exe file. Any ideas how to check to see if it has downloaded and if necessary, to get the files to install and run?

  If this isn't in the user folder, then you can have customized your location.  I recommend you to download the software again and you will have a file name exact, you can search for institutions.

  If you prefer you can also use the steps listed in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369 to launch a direct download.

• Windows Media Center Guide not updated lists of TV of Zap2It passed tuesday.21.07.15

  Overview: Windows Media Center (WMC) is provided to ads of TV via the WMC Guide, of Zap2It.  If you go on the website of Zap2It TV listings *, about 2 weeks ago from future TV ads.  When the WMC Guide is set to day, & functions correctly, these same 2 weeks of TV programs are downloaded into WMC.  If we could use the Zap2It site to schedule the recording of television programs, then we would not need the WMC Guide to download.

  It is very early Sunday asof this announcement; the WMC Guide didn't really update for about 9 days... There's only TV ads through Tuesday, in about 3 days.  The update of the WMC Guide seems to work fine, it connects with the site or the source or whatever/where he gets the Guide of... but they say, "The PSE Listing is already up to date", even if, obviously, is NOT "up-to-date".  I'm getting now, 'you only have 3 days of registration!, you must update the Guide!' scare-messages every time I go to the WMC, and I click on update the Guide, but all also when I manually run it, just as when WMC runs automatically update Guide, it isn't actually updated!

  To be clear: I use Win7Pro64bit; -ALL-all the updates, Windows software & if not, are daily checked & constantly kept up to date; There has been no changes to the computer, & it works like a dream; WMC works the same, the update of the WMC Guide works exactly the same, the only exception being that, "that the EPG Listings package is already updated" thing, when he has actually updated the WMC Guide.

  So Please do not post those standard, boilerplate answers for updating Windows & or by disabling caches & or such other hoax explosive...  The problem is almost certainly with the Microsoft, Windows, WMC, Zap2It interface.

  You can go on the site Web of Zap2It * yourself!, go!, see for yourself!, the next 2 weeks of TV programs are here!...

  ... then, why are not those TV ads- already & always present -are actually downloaded to WMC?, why isn't the WMC Guide updated?

  ... Thank you!

  Hello hank1111,

  You can see this thread, including the recent responses, the bottom of page 3 I think:

  Guide not updated Windows Media Center

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_xp-pictures/Windows-Media-Center-Guide-not-updating/8721f207-A694-43CE-bf38-6105968af080

  I'm NOT an expert on these things, but so are ' twisted my arm, I'd suggest the possibility of you as I did to RW:

  «If you still have your Windows OS CD maybe you could try to remove & then reinstalling Windows Media Center entirely?...» I don't know there's a way to do it, but you do not want explicit instructions of any part/whatever ' one who knows what they have everything.  Also, if it is possible to do a total removal/uninstall & reinstall, - vs - a sort of "repair", I'd do the full thing, that simple "repair" can let WMC Guide EPG old and outdated files that could bring you a right of return to the same sorry state of affairs! »

  ... hank good luck!

• Windows 7 Media Center will not download the new guide listings

  Hello

  I am really frustrated. WMC will not download the new guide listings and I tried all the patches that are supposed to be that I found in this forum. I also tried the system restore, which did not fix the problem. Obviously the problem is not affected by the restore program.

  I was able to determine that there is some kind of corruption of the WMC files that Windows 7 can not solve (according to the event log).

  I'm a bit exasperated at the tenacity of this problem. Y at - it a reliable fix or I need to reinstall Windows 7?

  Thank you

  Hello Long777,

  You have the update for Windows Media Center installed?

  Click on the article below:
  KB Article ID: 2284742 -October 2010 Cumulative Update for Windows Media Center in Windows 7

  You may be able to force a manual update. Do an update (weekly) to TV Guide through the menu system.

  If this does not help, you might want to ask your specific question to http://.www.thegreenbutton.com \forums

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you
