Apple's Vista Repair Tool

I downloaded the "iTunes Repair Tool" that Apple put out for us Vista folks ... but nothing happens. Anyone else getting this?
Here's the drill: I downloaded it, ran it, and I got the "I agree to the licence" thing, and then it says "This tool for Windows Vista will repair permissions for important files required by iTunes to play your iTunes Store purchases. Click OK to continue."
I clicked OK, the hard drive churned for a second or two, then ... nothing. No confirmation that it's been installed, nothing. And there's no change in the performance of iTunes (only problem I'm getting is that the video doesn't work - it's choppy, stalls and stutters)
Anyone else getting this?

I don't have Vista but I understand the repair tool is just to fix a problem some people have with authorising their computers. It isn't designed to fix anything else AFIK, certainly not performance issues such as poor quality playback.

Need to download repair tool

I need to download repair tool so I can install Silverlight on my computer. I have a Fujitsu lapto, Operating System: Windows Vista

Possibly you would get better answers on Microsoft's user forums, since both Silverlight and Windows are their products, and have nothing to do with Apple, the Mac OS or Bonjour.

Poor Lightroom 5.7 Performance when using part repair tool

Hi Lightroom pros,
I'm using Lightroom 5.7 for about half a year and are very happy with it. Unless I'm working on photos where I have to use the part repairt tool to much.
I'm specialized in car photograpy and often have to remove dust from the cars paint work and chrome. When I have to work on hughe areas Lightroom becomes slower and slower. I read that the repair tool costs a lot of performance but I'm wondering if I could optimize something or if there is a workaround for that? Because right now its not usable doing one click and waiting 2 minutes...
I'm using the newest Lightroom 64-bit version on a Windows 8.1 Enterprise 64-bit Laptop with an internal SSD drive. LR is installed on that drive and the Catalogue also is stored there. I have 70 GB of free space on that drive, my catalogue is around 5 GB, my Camera Raw Cache Size is 20 GB.
The machine has 16 GB of RAM and an Intel Core i7 3 GHz Quadcore processor. My RAW files are stored on an external USB 3.0 Drive (not SSD).
When working on that kind of picutres I usually close as much programms as possible, so that most of the time LR is the only working desktop programm. What seems strange to me is, that even if I'm waiting for minutes for LR to answer, that my processor and RAM are only using about 40% of it's power. The rest seems not to be used by LR?!
I would be really thankful for tipps or ideas how to improve that issue because right now I'm really wasting a lot of time.
Kind regards
Torsten

I guess this depends on what you are doing, what type of original files you are using, and your own perception of quality. I would believe that in most cases, if you do all the editing in LR except for the spot removal, get the photo to appear the way you want (except for the spot removal), and then lastly move it to PSE and remove the spots, that there isn't really any noticeable loss of quality.
I must admit I'm not a pro concerning color managment. But I already downloaded the PSE testversion and realized that it is not capable to deal with 16-bit color depth. Wouldn't that be noticeable after the finale spot removal step?
So, you should tell Adobe this, not me. This is a forum for users (like me) to help other users (like you).
I know. I just wanted to emphasize why switching to PS wouldn't be the perfect solution for me (even if I'm considering it).
Thanks so far!

I just dropped my new macbook pro on the ground, it dents a little. So can I bring it to apple store, and repair it for free? I bought it just one month ago.

No, user caused accidents are not warranty coverage, nor are spills, loss, theft etc.
all these user caused issues have no bearing on the warranty coverage.
they are outside of same.
All laptop mfg. are identical in this nature (same with your car too of course)

If my apple Id is disabled do I have to pay apple $99 to repair or is there another way

Your Apple ID has nothing to do with hardware and Apple ID issues are always suppported.
This is a case for the iTunes Store Support:
1. Go to expresslane.apple.com
2. select 'itunes' and then 'itunes store' on the right
3. select a topic and a subject
4. click 'continue' and then 'email'
5. fill out the form and explain your situation
6. they will respond within 24 hours usually
Good luck

Is there any trustworthy Exchange BKF repair tool?

I need to export some critical data (edb and log files) from the exchange bkf file but due to some networking problem, backup process got interrupted which made bkf file inaccessible. After searching a lot about this over Internet, I found that majority
of the people have advised to use any utility for that.
Can anyone suggest any efficient utility to export data from damaged exchange bkf file?

Hi Tuckor,
You can try any of the following Exchange BKF Repair tools:
http://www.stellarinfo.com/email-repair/exchange-bkf-repair.php
http://www.taskmanagerfix.com/exchange-bkf-to-pst.html
http://www.bkfrepairtool.org/exchange-bkf-recovery.html
http://www.exchangebkfrepair.com/
PS: I have not used any of the above tools, while searching on Google, I found some of them. But I have used some other products of
Task Manager Fix and Stellar Phoenix and they did exactly what I needed. So, I think you can depend upon their other products as well but I would advise you to test free version of every product first
to check if the particular tool is able to repair your corrupt Exchange BKF file or not. Chhose sensibly.

Need an Outlook PST repair tool for MS Outlook 2010

My Outlook mailbox messages are corrupted. Someone has suggested to me use advanced PST repair tool.
I have no idea about this one utility. Can anyone suggest useful reference ?
Regards:
christa

Hi Christa,
In case of severe corruption, Scanpst.exe don't work, that's why Scanpst.exe is getting terminated during
mid stage of repair process. So, the only way you are left with is to try any third party Outlook PST Repair tool. Though I have never used any PST Repair tool personally but while searching on Google I have found the following tools:
http://www.stellarphoenixrecovery.com/software-for-pst.php
http://www.dd-pst-repair.com/
http://www.cimaware.com/main/products/outlookfix.php
I would suggest you to try the demo of these tools first before purchasing the full version.

Receiving a "FIXMAPI 1.0 MAPI Repair Tool has stopped working" error

One of our users has Windows 7 Installed. When she emails out attachments, she right clicks it and chooses to "Sent To" and then selects "Mail Recipient".
It opens and creates a new email fine. Upon pressing SEND it gives a "FIXMAPI 1.0 MAPI Repair Tool has stopped working" It does successfully email.
I attached a screenshot.

Hi,
Have you tried to repair the Office for the user?
If that won't work, open the Explorer, and navigate to
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
Delete the file named Mail recipient. (Make a backup before you doing that, or you can just move it to the other folders.)
And then open folder
C:\Windows
Find the file named Win.ini, open it with Notepad, find the section that begins with [Mail], and then add the following lines. Some lines may already exist, but you need all of them for this feature.
[Mail]
MAPI=1
CMC=1
CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll
CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll
MAPIX=1
MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1
OLEMessaging=1
Save it and quit Notepad, restart the Computer.
See if we can get rid of it.
Sincerely,
Max Meng

Does the Clone repair tool have an Aligned option like PhotoShop?

PhotoShop's clone stamp has an option that is called "Aligned" under CS3 (not sure of its name in prior versions.) When clicked, there is a fixed spatial relationship between the source and destination pixels, even if you complete one clone operation, move the cursor, and click again for another one. SO for instance you can fix numerous places in a photo by always grabbing pixels "down and to the right a bit", only needing to reset your source pixels when you get to an area of the picture where that relationship won't work well.
When it is not clicked, then the clone stamp always goes back to the same spot you option-clicked on originally. It's like each clone stamp operation is "dipping into the well of good pixels" where you told it to, until you reset the source area again.
Both of these modes are useful at different times. As near as I can tell, Aperture clone option on the repair tool only works like the second one, but I sure miss having the Aligned option too. Is there some way to get that effect in Aperture that I'm just not seeing?
Thanks,
Duncan

There is no such feature in InDesign.
You can file a feature request here so the product managers can see it:

Can i get referral from apple for the repair of unlocked iphone?

Is it possible to get referral from Apple (HK) to repair my unlocked iphone in the Philippines? the unit was originally purchased from HK and brought to the Philippines, but it encountered hardware problem, I am thinking that it is cheaper if the repair will done here. But only the two major telecoms here are doing the repair, neither of the authorized resellers and service centers of apple here are repairing iphones.

Apple's warranty is NOT worldwide. To get warranty service on an iPhone you need to bring it in to the country of purchase.

Repair Tool Performance Problem when Zoom on Image

Aperture Friends,
I experience a huge performance hit when editing images with the Repair/Clone tool only when "zoomed" into an image. The curious part is that the repair while "zoomed in" function works fine for about 3 images, then from the 4th image on, the software grinds to almost a complete stop for several seconds after selection a source point and trying to use the repair. The mouse cursor even changes to a spinning rainbow DVD look during this time.
These are 15-20MB Raw files from a Canon 5d and we are using the most recent version of AP on a nearly brand new iMac 27", of course with Snow L, and all patches applied. The library is less than 20GB and we are not using Reference files as of yet.
I realize that these may be large files, but it is curios that it works with blazing speed to start with, then degrades.
Is this a common problem, or an identified issue? Might you more experienced folks know a resoulution?

hi!
i'm experiencing a similar problem on my imac i5 with the difference it is slow all the time. even after a reboot it's quite impossible to use the clone/repair tool. my library is about 40GB with referenced files (all on external HD fw800). i work with a 5D Mk II (which is still not supported for tethered shooting, by the way!).
(sorry if i nicked your thread )
best regards,
günther

Scene Repair Tool is Missing

I am new to Elements. One of the main reasons I purchased this software was for its 'scene repair tool' which, according to the literature I have read, should be located under the healing brush tool drop menu. A 'Dummies' book that I purchased actually shows a picture of this drop down menu with three options, but my software appears to only have two; 'spot healing brush' and 'healing brush'. Can anyone tell me where I can find this option, and if not, what options do I have to remove unwanted images from my pictures?
Thanks in advance!

In Full Photo Edit Click File >>New >>Photomerge Scene Cleaner
Or
Try the Smart Brush Tool

License repair tool for PSE 8 won't work-missing python 25 .dll

PSE 8 license repair tool won't work... missing python 25 .dll

Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.

Do I have to be present when turning in my apple product for repair?

Do I have to be present when turning in my apple product for repair?

1. You don't need to create any new subscription offers for that special edition. In iTunes you create a single-issue purchase for it, just like you did for your other individual issues.
2. A yearly subscriber will be entitled to your special issue if their subscription timeperiod covers the publication date of the special issue.
3. No. You should be creating single item purchases for each individual issue in iTunes.
Our publishing guide walks through the whole process, see http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ppcompdoc/Adobe_Publishing_Companion_Guide_for_iPad.pdf
