0x80072ee4 error in Store for any app after Windows 8.1 Upgrade

Just in installed 8.1 directly from the Store (Win 8 Pro). Everything went smoothly.
Now when I go into the Store and try and install (or update, as it says apps are broken) any app, it says
"Something happened and your purchase can't be completed. Error code 0x80072ee4". No other details in Event log.
Plus it now want me to switch over to a MS account to install anything. I prefer a local account.

You have an issue with the Internet connection:
C:\Users\André>err 0x80072ee4
# anonymous HRESULT: Severity: FAILURE (1), Facility 0x7, Code 0x2ee4

# 3 matches found for "0x80072ee4"
Try again later. The Microsoft Servers are under heavy stress now.

X1 Carbon integrated camera working but not showing any image after Windows 8.1 upgrade

Good afternoon, sundely after I upgraded Windows to version 8.1 64x my integrated camera stopped sending image to any program that uses it, the green light goes on but there is no image. Before worked just fine.I have tried to uninstal and install again camera drivers, installed Lenovo dependency package, etc....no solution.Please help?Thanks Sergio

I resolved my issue by going to device manager selected View then View Hidden Devices.
Expand System Devices
Found two IWD BUS devices and one had the yellow triangle. I uninstalled that item and restarted my Carbon X1 and the error was gone. The original working IWD BUS remains active.

Why is my Apple ID still disabled when supposedly was fixed by apple httsupport this am over 12 hours agora dithery said it would be disabled no longer then 8 hours and I still am unable to buy anything in the I tunes store or pay for any apps or games

Why is my Apple ID still disabled when supposedly it was fixed by Apple ID support over the phone this am over 12 hours ago and they said it ( my Apple ID and password) would be disabled no longer then 8 hours and I still am unable to buy anything in the I tunes store or pay for any apps or games.

We are fellow users here on these forums. Have you tried logging out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then logged in and seeing if it then works ?

App download showed error 1004,, couldnt download any apps.

I think you have to disable firewall and antivirus. It worked for me.

HT204266 Can't write review for any apps. It keeps repeating to ask you for password, and it never goes through.

Recent, I have a few apps having problems. I just want to write it on the apps review. I go to the reviews of the apps, and click write a review. First it will pop-up a box with my Apple ID already on the box where I just need to enter password. After I entered password, it will pop up another message box to request me password. This time it also says, "AOL members can sign in using their AOL username and password." Then I click the "Sign In" button on the bottom to enter password again. Then it will just pop up the "AOL" message box again, and I just repeating the same procedure. I tried to input different password. It will reply the password is incorrect immedicately. Thus, I can't write review for any apps now.
I wonder this may happend since the last update of the IOS, and then I have a few apps encoutered problems.

Your profile indicates your Mac as v10.8.1 installed.
If that is correct, updating your system software may help the review issue.
Either click Software Update from your Apple menu 
Or open System Preferences > Software Update and click Check Now.

Why doesn't the download button appear on the App Store for some apps?

Hey. So, I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 7.0.4. And the download button doesn't appear on the App Store for some apps. So, I would be happy if someone could help me with this problem..

Remove the App Store app from Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Swipe up on the App Store app preview card to remove it from the list
- Press the home button when done.
Try the App Store again

Since purchasing my iPhone 5 one year ago, I'm unable to leave reviews for any app

I purchased my iPhone 5 one year ago. Since then I can't leave a review for any app. I contacted iTunes & they said it was the particular app. However, it's every single app. I can't leave a review for any at all. What's up? Is there something that's turned off in my settings?

I deleted the app multiple times, and restarted my phone, I even did a complete restore...nothing worked, UNTIL I changed my password once again...I had changed my password 3 times in an attempt to get it to work, and not until I changed it for the fourth time last night did the app finally accept my new credentials
It was such a goofy bug, but I'm glad to be rid of it...thanks all!

I have an iPad 2 and used old Apple ID for iBook app; now it wants to upgrade but I have a new Apple ID, how can I make certain I don't lose any data in my iBooks?

I have an iPad 2 and used old Apple ID for iBook app; now it wants to upgrade iBook but it is "stuck" on my old ID, yet I already created a new ID but it won't let me update the App. I have everything backed up on my MacBook so if I delete iBooks on my iPad and retrieve the App under my new ID and then sync with my MacBook, will I still have all of the books, etc.?

Your purchases are tied to your Apple ID. If you bought all of the books with the old ID then AFAIK you will have to continue to use that ID in order to continue to sync those books to the iPad.
You have to update the app with the old ID so I don't see how you could keep the books with the new ID. Maybe I am wrong about this, but someone else will chime in I'm sure and correct me if I am wrong.

Saving files for metro apps in Windows 8/8.1 when printing

Hi,
I have a query regarding saving files for metro apps Windows 8/8.1.
Metro apps saves the file automatically to the Document folder when we print.
But I would like to save the files into a recommened folder like C:\users\tmp\
Please suggest me, is there a way to save the files to a particular folder for metro apps in Windows 8/8.1.
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Toshik12

As far as I know (and I may be wrong), there's no built-in file saving when printing documents. How are you confirming that?
You can save the file anywhere you want, as long as the user chooses the folder location using the FolderPicker.

Welcome to the HP Forums MillaMagia,
I see by your post that the USB isn't being recognized.
I can help you with this issue.
Are you using the same USB cable? (known good USB cable)
You want to use the normal USB slot 2.0 cable and not the latest USB 3.0.
USB 3.0 are supposed to be backwards compatible.
Try another USB port on the Laptop, some of the USB ports are more powered then others.
I have provided a document to see if the printer is partially recognized in the device manager, which is causing the printer not to be recognized again. (the uninstall from the CD should have removed the entry and the printer from the registry)
Leave the printer turned on and the USB cable connected directly to the computer and the printer's power cord directly into a wall outlet.
How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
Here is a document for Identifying problems in Windows Device Manager.
Check to see if there are any hardware driver conflicts, you might see a ! mark or a red x beside a device with a conflict or unknown device, look under universal serial bus controllers, look for USB printing support or mass storage device, delete the entry by right clicking and select uninstall, OK.
Let me know how it was listed. (screen shots welcome)
If this is a Laptop then check the power management settings.
Access the device manager. Windows 8-How do I access the Device Manager.
Select universal serial bus controllers from the list, for each USB root hub, right click and left click on properties, for power management remove the check mark for "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". It allows the computer to limit or turn off power for this device.
Disconnect the USB, run the full uninstall and reinstall the printer software again.
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

First of all you need to get into safemode
for that press f8 or del key while starting the computer
then you will get many options there you must go to safemode
Secondly ,after getting to safemode go to 1.control panel ->2.Device Manager->3.Disable AMD HD Graphics
Thats all
then restart your computer to get into normal mode
May be if you upgrade your amd hd driver your black screen problem will be gone

Lenovo B590 I3 slow after Windows 8.1 upgrade

Am looking for the best fix for slow laptop after Windows upgrade from 8 to 8.1

Dear, alanj9za and somran. Mostly laptop runs slow issue occurs due to broken Windows registry entries. Fixing registry will help you to boost up your laptop. You need to download and install a Registry Cleaner program to fix corrupt or broken registry entries. To download a reliable registry cleaner, go to famous website download.cnet and search there Reginout. Which I personally use and recommend the friends. After downloading run all of its tools one by one except Internet Optimizer, to clean all the junks and registry errors from your computer.
