Acrobat 9 not connecting to Thunderbird in Windows 8

I have seen many posts from people where Acrobat will not send via Thunderbird. This problem persists even while the email link works using other Windows apps and the mailto link on web pages.
The solution is simple. Open "Contol Panel" in Windows Settings. Choose "Programs". Choose the main heading "Default Programs". Choose "Set programs access and computer defaults". Expand the "Custom" section.
Under the heading "Choose a default e-mail program", chose Mozilla Thunderbird.
Viola! Restart Adobe Acrobat and your email button will no launch Thunderbird!

Yes, I am running the 64bit Windows 8. Acrobat Pro has been updated to version 9.5.3. Sorry I left that out. Despite the update to Acrobat the mail pdf function did not work previously or with the updates, until I performed the change to the Windows settings described in the original post above.
Regards,
Bert

My iPod will not connect to itunes after windows 8.1 download

My iPOD will not connect to itunes after windows 8.1 download
I already uninstall itunes and made sure there were no file left before I installed again (it didn't appear to be any files left but music I had on it before was still there when I reinstall it)
My ipod does work on my old computer and it was working on windows 8 before I update to 8.1
I don't want to installed again because I just did that and didn't work!
I want to use my iPod on this computer and system. Can this be fix?

Hey TheBurntApple,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with your iPhone connecting to iTunes for Windows. While you may have already attempted most of the steps in this article, I wished to provide it to you just in case something was omitted.

The dreaded "You are not connected to the Internet" window.

Is it just me, or are others having connectivity problems as the "You are not connected to the Internet" window constantly appears while moving from site to site or link to link? I have a new iMac and just upgraded Mountain Lion, which I now suspect is the problem. I have tried all kinds of hardware/software fixes. Nothing works. Sheesh!

Thanks for the reply, Greg. I do have my wife's Mac laptop to test with. She's experiencing the same sporatic disconnect problem, too. She's on wifi, I'm on ethernet (I keep my wifi off). We're in a home. I upgraded our cable modem yesterday (after this problem started) and checked all the wires/connections; everything seems okay. I thought it was the Mountain Lion upgrade, but this problem doesn't appear to be widespread. Very strange how connection can stop and start (and stop and start) during a short period of time. Never expereinced this before. So now, a hardware problem? But that wouldn't explain my wife's problem, so maybe it's the modem or the service provider (Comcast). I hate like **** to have to talk with them.

Can not connect wireless through Bootcamp Windows XP to Timecapsule?

Any help would be appreciated.
I recently purchased an iMac with Leopard (10.5.2). Today, I used Bootcamp to install Windows XP with SP2. I created a FAT partition of 32 gigs and followed all of the steps (including installing drivers off of MAC OS installation disk 1 while on initial XP boot up).
My wireless network is on a Timecapsule and is "WPA Personal secured". The Mac OS detects the network and connects instantly, my work laptop PC detects the network and connects instantly. However, the newly installed XP detects the wireless network but will not connect. When I try to connect to the network, I receive an error message that basically states "unable to connect...". I do not even get to a screen that asks for me to enter a network key or password. When I try to connect to two other networks in the neighborhood, I at least get the network key screen.
I have gone into the Windows network tools and have tried to manually configure the connection, but I still get the same problem. I thought maybe I had "WPA2 Personal" enabled as the security setting for the network (XP does not support WPA2 out of the box) , but I have it as "WPA Personal".
Can't figure it out. I am new to Macs (about 1 month). The reason I switched was because I could run both Leopard and XP.
Best regards,

Solved my own problem.
FYI
Even though my security settings on my Timecapsule are listed as "WPA Personal", my work PC Laptop kept detecting as "WPA2 Personal". I even removed all security settings from the Timecapsule and my laptop still detected as "WPA2".
I know that XP does not support WPA2 out of the box.
I hooked directly into the Timecapsule via an ethernet cable while in Windows environment. Thankfully, I was able to access the internet. I went to Microsoft and did a search for WPA2 patches for XP. Found one that allows XP wireless connection to WPA2. I installed the patch and was able to detect and connect wirelessly to Timecapsule from XP.
After two days, I have come to the firm believe (don't know the technical reasons why) that Timecapsule is a WPA2 device and that the XP patch is the only way to create initial connectivity. It is sort of ironic that although I wanted to connect wirelessly, I had to first connect via an ethernet hard connection.
Solve one problem, left with another. I have a Epson all-in-one scanner, printer, copier hooked to the Timecapsule. My iMac picks it up fine wirelessly but I am getting nothing on XP. Hopefully it is a simple driver download issue.

Linksys WRT54GL does not connect by cable at Windows 7

Hi. I have used this router connected to one router acting as a cable modem at a cable connection for years and now running with windows 7, after 24 hours, windows can not connect. It has not problems connecting by wireless. It is curious because it has not any problem connecting at windows xp.
Anybody have seen this?

In the command prompt post the results of the below command:
ipconfig /all
I'm guessing your adapter isn't getting IP information. Good troublehooting info will be in the ipconfig output.
Please remember to Kudo those that help you.

HI all!
I have a problem when Client log in to server that installed window server 2008.It can not connect to this server even when restart and key in IP or Server name,...
I try disable Firewall of window 2008 in server machine and client can connect to server. But when i disable firewall, it's mean i can not use Remote desktop or terminal service..
Now, how i can do in order to solve this problem.
Thanks!

Hi,
Take a look at the admin guide (Page 75, 119, 159):
[http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000150922010E.zip]
If you installed a firewall on the license service computer, make sure that the firewall is not set to port 30000; otherwise, the license service cannot work.
If you are using Port X, make sure that you open Port X and Port (X+1) in the firewall. For example, if you are using port 10000, make sure to also open port 10001.
The default communication port is 1143.
The default port of the SAP Business One license server is 30000 for license communication and 30001 for the license naming service

Lenovo Y50 Not connecting to Internet after windows 10 update

Just as the title says.
I was able to install some windows 10 updates with wifi as my usb modem would not work
After that i can't connect to the internet. I can connect to wifi and it shows internet access but i can't still connect to internet.
One funny thing though i typed ipconfig in cmd and no ip address was found it shows something like media no connected.
All my drivers are upto date. Downloaded directly from lenovo website. And they are all working perfectly according to device manager

Also worked on 10.4.11. I installed an Airport Express and updated all the software and firmware on my MacBook. After Safari, Itunes store, Google earth could not connect but Firefox was connecting fine. Followed your tip. Disableing the proxies on the Network config does the trick. Very simple but very helpful, thanks.

Droid will not connect with USB to Windows 7?

Hello Everyone,
I recently upgraded to a RAZR M and can not connect to my PC with the USB cable. I have tried cable that came with phone and others and get the same message that USB driver did not install correctly. The phone did an update of the operating system less than a week after getting it so I am not sure what is up.
Also tried the MTP and PTP settings to see if that made any difference without help. I know my last phone had a setting for mass storage USB and I do not see that on the Droid.
Anyone else have this problem and been able to fix it?

Not an answer for you, yet I had this issue on my new Razr HD. The SD card was sort of accessible, I could transfer one file and then the directory info and transfer would get all goofy... However, on the HD there is an option for mass storage. It just needs to be set. Refer to the manual. Out of the box mine was set for MTP. Once it is set to mass storage it is not accessible by the phone (to find the stuff you transferred as mass storage) until you go back to the same menu and set it back to MTP.

Why does other software not connect with thunderbird? IE Nitro Reader, Windows photo

Previous use with OE I could open a pdf in Nitro reader and click send email and then OE would open in a send window. Using Thunderbird the software opens but just in the general start page. Am I missing a setting?

I have the same problem. I've used Nitro PDF reader for years and, in every case until recently, when I have a pdf document open in Nitro and click "Send as email attachment", Thunderbird has opened with the document attached. For the past several days, Thunderbird has not opened in response to such a click. Also, for the same time period, Thunderbird's minimize, expand and x symbols in the upper right corner have been blacked out. They still function if clicked blindly, but they cannot be seen. Coincidence? Different problems? I need solutions for both.

Acrobat reader X with thunderbird under windows 2008 server

Hi,
i use acrobat reader X under windows 2008 R2 . My Mailclient is thunderbird.
I get an error when trying to send an E-Mail. "Acrobat could not get a connection to your e-mail programm".
I defined thunderbrid as the standard mailprogramm under START->CONTROLPANEL->STANDARD-PROGRAMMS
I already tried to google the solution, but the only one i found was for Windows VISTA and Windows 7. There, you have not only to define the STANDARDPROGRAMM, you either need to make a change on "default programms and computerstandards" which is missing in windows 2008 R2
Can anyone please tell me how to use acrobat with thunderbrid in a windows 2008 environment????
Thank you

Hi Michael,
sorry for using the wrong forum. I'll post my question to the Reader board ...
To answer your question. That was my idea too, but it is not possible to copy a whole profile. They are a lot of other problems if you do that. I didn't find the settings only. may it would be enough to copy the settings for the reader.
Best Regards,
Markus

Outlook 2013 Mail Setup Add Account crashes or will not connect to Exchange in Windows 8.1

I've posted this in the answers.Microsoft.com forum, as well as the Office365 forum, and they sent me here, saying the Outlook engineers would be the best to help with this. I actually already posted this question a week ago, but nobody here replied.
Getting a bit frustrated at the lack of support, except for Richard over at the Office365 Forum.
I'm setting up a new laptop with Windows 8.1. Just installed Office Professional Plus 2013. I have an Office365 E1 subscription, but this Office 2013 is not associated with the subscription.
When I go to setup any email account using the automatic mode (primary will be Exchange Online with my 365 account, but I've tested POP email accounts with the same result), the Mail Setup crashes once the email address and password is entered and Next is
pressed. This error message is displayed:
"Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
The step displayed as in process when the crash occurs is the "Searching for [email address] settings". The first step "Establishing network connection" is checked complete.
I've run an Office Repair, and there's no change. I've run a clean boot, and no change. I uninstalled/reinstalled both from the Click to Run version, as well as reinstalling from a disk install, with the same error still appearing.
If I use the manual setup mode and input the server outlook.office365.com, both the Check Name function and the Next button result in the error message:
"The action cannot be completed. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action."
I've disabled the firewall and still get this Outlook error. I am able to start Outlook and it will run now, and I can connect POP and IMAP email using the manual setup, but still cannot connect to ExchangeOnline via the manual setup. I still
get the error "The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action."
I deleted the Outlook data file and deleted the profile, and created a new profile, and I'm still getting the Add account setup crash Rundll32 error in the auto-setup mode.
Important to note: I tested my friend's Office365 E3 ExchangeOnline account and was able to get a successful setup test, so it doesn't appear that the problem is entirely just the Outlook2013 client, since it worked once with a 365 Exchange account.
I've been trying to get this working for 2 weeks now, and I am unable to completely switch off my old laptop using Outlook 2010 until I can get Outlook2013 setup on my new one, which is a huge hassle.
Can you offer any ideas or solutions? Please help ASAP.
Thanks,
Jason

IMPORTANT: I found the solution. Another user figured it out and posted the answer on another thread.
Please spread this around to all other Outlook support techs so they know to point people in the direction of the quick (though very obscure) fix to this problem.
See this thread for how to disable graphics acceleration in Office, which iswhat causes the rundll23 error.

HP Deskjet 3000 does not connect via Wireless to Windows 8.1 any more

Good day. My job requires me to move with my laptop (Asus X54C with NO bluetooth, only wireless) between multiple workplaces. One of these offices has an HP Deskjet 3000 wireless printer, which I used with no problem whatsoever under Windows 8.0 64-bit.I didn't even need to install its drivers, because Windows 8 would instantly recognise the driver's wireless signal.
Then a month ago I decided to update to Windows 8.1: after that, the printer suddenly stopped appearing in my “Network Connections”. I tried to uninstall the drivers and reinstall the 8.1 signed drivers by HP, but to no avail. The printer is recognised and works perfectly with an USB cable. I clearly recall seeing it on the right-hand pane (“Networks”), but since the 8.1 update it isn’t there anymore. The icon in the System Tray tells me that “connections are available”, but I can see no connections at all. In that particular office there is no Internet connection or other wireless connections apart from the HP printer (that however I cannot connect to). I'd like to point out that the wireless function is OK because a colleague of mine can still print using his Mac's Airport connection.
I have already posted in the Windows 8 (Microsoft Answers) Forum, but nobody has ever answered. You can find the thread here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-hardware/winows-81-not-finding-wireless-...
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Outlook 2013 Mail Setup Add Account crashes with Rundll32 error and will not connect to Exchange in Windows 8.1

I got a new Acer laptop with Windows 8.1 over 3 weeks ago, and installed Office Professional Plus 2013. I have an Office365 E1 subscription, but this Office 2013 is not associated with the subscription.
When I go to setup any email account using the automatic mode (primary will be Exchange Online with my 365 account, but I've tested POP email accounts with the same result), the Mail Setup crashes once the email address and password is entered and Next is
pressed. This error message is displayed:
"Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working

If I use the manual setup mode and input the server outlook.office365.com, both the Check Name function and the Next button result in the error message:
"The action cannot be completed. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action." The folks in the Office365 support community have told me that Office365 ExchangeOnline
servers have to be configured with the auto-setup and cannot be setup manually.
I've done both a system refresh and a system reset, and I'm still getting the Rundll32 error. I tried to run a reset from a disk, but the laptop does not want to run it from the external DVD drive (giving error messages), so that doesn't appear
to be an option.
I've searched extensively, and there doesn't seem to be any existing threads where anything like this problem is discussed.
Can you offer any ideas or solutions?
After THREE WEEKS of troubleshooting this, and some significant delays in getting help from support, I'm really close to returning this laptop.
I need an answer on this ASAP to see if you've got an insights before I return the laptop for a new one.
Thanks,
Jason
