Bootcamp - Vista - Overheating - Any Suggestions?
I have Bootcamp running Vista Ultimate and it gets pretty darn hot. Anything I can do to help this? Thanks!
I have had the same issues - it seems that the nvidia drivers need to be updated (to prevent the freezing issues) and the fan 1 seems to not be responding to Windows in boot camp
My resolution has been to download SMC Fan Control (which installs on Mac OS X) where you can very easily set fan speeds (I have set to 3500rpm) and then restart into Windows (not shut down, otherwise it loses the SMC settings)
In this mode my CPU temps have gone from 80+ in Vista down to 50 and my case no longer gets hot
i have raised this with Apple as it would seem that boot camp needs new drivers, meanwhile this lets me use Vista on the MBP
hope its useful
Justin

Have been running iTunes on Windows PC for many months. OS is Vista. Today when prompted to upgrade iTunes and iCloud Control Panel, the upgrade failed. Message received was "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126). Also saw a message that said a particular DLL file was missing but don't know specific file name. Have tried upgrading and uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes several times without success. Can anyone help? Thanks.Meowia for Error 201 please see Error downloading Creative Cloud applications - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/error-downloading-cc-apps.html. Error 213 indicates there was problem locating the update or an incorrect URL. The troubleshooting steps are still the same as both errors are related to failure of the current network connection.

Firefox browser appears as a small square on the screen. If I click on it, it disappears.
Try to restore the window via the right-click context menu menu of the icon on the Taskbar.<br />
Once you have done that then open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window to make it larger. If that works then close Firefox to save the new window size.

When I switched from windows vista to windows 7 on a new computer my ipod doesnt play songs from itunes fully it cuts them off before they play out entirely. Any suggestions?
Delete the current copy, don't hide from iTunes in the cloud if prompted, close iTunes, reopen, download from iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
While downloading click the download icon and uncheck Enable simultaneous downloads. You may find it more reliable that way.

I keep getting the following message every time i plug in my Iphone3gs to Itunes on my windows vista computer
Itunes was unable to load data class information from sync services. reconnect or try again later.
any suggestions pls
MarioThe article says that I should upgrade to the latest iTunes. I am on the latest iTunes version.
If you could read just a tiny little bit further, under the "Additional Information" section immediately after that, it says:
If you are still experiencing this issue when syncing, or have not installed Xcode 4 and get this alert:
Follow the troubleshooting steps in Mac OS X v10.5, v10.6: Resetting the SyncServices folder.
If the issue is still unresolved, follow steps in Sync Services: Advanced troubleshooting for contact and calendar syncing.
Have you tried those measures? -
I have a desk top which has Windows Vista. On this computer I have been running Itunes for a long time. My new computer is a Lap top and it runs Windows 7.
I recently loaded Itune on the new computer. I attemted to use Easy Transfer to transfer my Music but was unable to connected the two computers so I transferred my music to a external hard drive and loaded the music on the new computer. I have the folders and files carefully and they appear to match. When I try to run Itunes on the new computer I am unable to access the new music. Itune always goes to the sample music. The only difference I can come up with is Windows Vista and Windows 7. Does anyone have any suggestions?Hi,
Are you trying to use the Help -> Updates method?
Both those patches need to be manually applied to PSE 9.

Try using a different browser as a test.

I would appreciate any suggestions on creating/editing the user account on my second-hand thinkpad X61 tablet (running Vista Business) edition. I bought the laptop from ebay in Germany/Austria. When I switched it on, there were no options to create or edit a username. I have completed all the updates (Lenavo and Windows). I tried the following to add a new administrative account:
1, Control Panel then selecting User Accounts. A screen appears for a second and then disappears.
2. I have also tried typing in sysdm.cpl in the command prompt,
None of the above worked, as the screen does not appear at all. I have also tried allowing the automatic updates on, that does not work either. I was wondering if this is managed by the Think Vantage system. Not sure if this is relevant, the Vista Business language was set in German and I added a language pack via Vistalizator to turn it into English.
Any help with this issue would be appreciated. Many thanks in advance.Hello,
Have you tried running the Local Users and Groups Manager (filename: LUSRMGR.MSC) to create a new user? If so, were you able to create additional accounts through it?

since installing Mozilla Firefox 14.0.1 on 7-15-12, and I believe Adobe Flash Player may have been installed at same time as well, I am unable to send e-mails using my Windows Vista system. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Are you using Hotmail / Windows Live Mail, or a different Windows webmail site?
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
1. Clear Firefox's Cache
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
When I look at your "More system details" list I don't see the Shockwave Flash plugin at all. You can check whether you have Flash installed and running on Adobe's "about" page here: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ -
