Bootcamp windows xp time sync.

I'm behind a corporate firewall. i tried editing the registry with the universal time and still the time advances like 4 hrs ahead after a few hrs of using the mac.
anybody resolved the problem?

Please search in the bootcamp forum here:

It's a well known and much discussed item

  • Windows 7 time sync returns Access Denied error

    I have recently configured my AD PDC Windows 2008 Server to syncronize with time.windows.com.  I am trying to get my AD Windows 7 Pro clients to sync with the server, however anytime I run w32tm /resync, net stop w32tm or net start w32tm I get an
    Access Denied error on the client.  I have tried it logged in as both the domain admin and the local admin.  For some reason I can start and stop the W32 Time Service from the Services console, but it doesn't resync the time when it restarts.  Why
    am I being denied access when logged in as the domain administrator?  

    Hi,
    Did you set any group policy to prevent client from changing the services?
    I suggest you take the ownership of %WINDIR%\System32\W32TM.EXE, disable the security software and firewall on both side to check the result. Also re-configure the
    group policy related to Windows Time Service and re-apply them.
    In addition, I suggest contacting Server Forum to confirm with the issue.

  • I am trying to install windows 7 to my Macbook pro with bootcamp but every time I open bootcamp I am only able to check the first two boxes but not the third one saying "install or remove Windows 7", any solutions ?

    Hi, I am trying to install Windows on my MacBook Pro with bootcamp. Every time I open bootcamp I am only able to check the first two boxes but not the third one saying "install or remove Windows 7". I did this before using the same computer and the same hard drive so I am not sure why this is happening now but did´t happen then. Any solutions ?

    Was your Bootcamp info.plist manipulated to change any options?

  • HT1349 Do I only have a certain window of time to register my Apple Service and Support protection plan before it expires? I certainly hope not I paid for it and could never get the serial numbers for product & protection to sync together!

    Do I only have a certain window of time to register my Apple Service and Support protection plan before it expires? I certainly hope not I paid for it and could never get the serial numbers for product & protection to sync together!

    Normally must register an AppleCare plan before the original warranty on the Mac expires. If you have problems registering the AppleCare plan for your MacBook, call Apple tech support and ask to be connected to AppleCare Plan Adminstration.
    For future posts, please make sure you're in the most appropriate forum for the product or service you're asking about. You'll be most likely to get quick and accurate help that way.

  • Mcbook Pro (2009) freezing all the time. Bootcamp windows works perfectly...

    Hi,
    I'm very confused.
    I've had my macbook pro for 2 years now, with bootcamp Windows installed for almost that long without a problem.
    As of today my macbook keeps locking up everytime I click on an application or click my mouse on something. It freezes with any action and stays busy for about a minute before doing all my commands.
    The problem is, my Windows 7 works perfectly fine! Which means, unlike the other people posting here about their freezing macs, it's NOT a hardware issue!
    I installed Lion about 2 weeks ago. I'm not sure what's going on. I don't really know what to do. I'll do some cleanups and everything, and post a little later.

    Do you have FileVault enabled or a Mac with a "Fusion" drive?
    It appears to be trying to boot into Safe Mode, but fails. I've seen Safe mode fail for the above reasons.
    Can you boot into Recovery? OS X: About OS X Recovery
    if so, try repairing the disk. http://osxdaily.com/2012/02/08/repair-boot-disk-mac-os-x-disk-utilit/

  • Time sync monitor for all windows member servers

    How to monitor time sync issue on all the member servers and domain controllers.  Can we monitor through scom 2007 r2.  Specially we need an alert when all the member servers are not in time sync.
    B John

    There is no monitor for exactly your ask.
    The AD management pack includes a Time Service Health monitor for DCs that makes sure the time service is running:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/0c921fa7-45ed-4bee-8f53-c92c750f6cbf/scom-module-for-monitoring-time-sync-issues?forum=operationsmanagergeneral
    Here is my "domain time tip:"
    Select your preferred time server from this list
    http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/NTP/. For example 'tick.usno.navy.mil'.
    Then run these commands on your PDC emulator of the domain:
    W32tm /config /syncfromflags:manual /manualpeerlist:"<DNS-name-of-time-server>"
    W32tm /config /reliable:yes
    W32tm /config /update
    W32tm /resync
    Net stop w32time
    Net start w32time
    If you execute these commands, AD defaults will cause all your member servers to discover the domain time standard and update to it.
    Good luck,

  • How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes?  I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini.  Thanks.

    How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes?  I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini.  Thanks.

    If you synced it many times, you have to have a backup. It's just a question of how old that backup is now. When did you last sync?
    First of all launch iTunes on your computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Do you see any backups for you iPad in that window? If so, how new is the newest backup? That will be the backup that you will want to use. But remember that if you use that backup and it is one month old, you can only restore from that date back in time. Anything that you did on the iPad in the past month will not be in that backup.
    Turn on the new iPad Minin and start activating OTA via WiFi. You will get to a certain point in the process where you will be given the choice to Set up as new, Restore from iCloud - or Restore from iTunes. You will want to select Restore from iTunes.
    That is the short and sweet version. There are step by step instructions in this article. This applies to the mini as well as the iPad 4 or the iPad 3 for that matter.

  • Ever since installing iCloud and Lion my computer is slow or freezes.  The color wheel comes on and My work stops.  I have only a small window of time where my computers will function normally during the day. I know many others that have the same problem.

    Ever since installing iCloud and Lion my computer is slow or freezes.  The color wheel comes on and My work stops.  I have only a small window of time where my computers will function normally during the day. I know many others that have the same problem. I'll get 20-30 minutes of work done and then a sync or something comes on, the color wheel of death shows up, and my productivity is shot.  I have to shut the computer down the hard way!  when it comes back up, it is still either frozen or slow.  I've checked in at the genius bar and all they say is that there have been some problems that Apple is trying to fix.  It effects Mail, Contacts, Safari, Calendar....yeah, pretty much everything.  My iPhone and iPad are not effected as much so I end up doing what I can with them.  I've seen the blogs out there and understand that many have the same problem.  I have been waiting to read about a fix but I have found nothing!  Any ideas?

    Not enough free space on the startup disk can slow the system down.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
    For startup issues...  open System Preferences > Users & Groups - Login Items. Delete any apps listed there then restart your mac.
    And disable the Lion "resume" feature.
    Open System Preferences > General
    Deselect:   Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps
    And Spotlight may be indexing... you can turn that off > Turning Off Spotlight | Mac Tricks And Tips

  • Windows 2003 time issue - recreate W32TIME account?

    I have gone through many google searches and posts and think i have figured out my problem, but can't find a solution to resolve it.  after unregistering and re-registering the w32tm and actually taking the whole w32time key and subkeys from another
    box and importing them i still receive the same error after reboot on my DC -  event id 30, w32time=source.  desc "the time service encountered an error while reading its configuration from the registry and cannot start. the error was: the system
    cannot find the file specified. (0x80070002).  now my problem and please make note and don't just give me a link to something i have already tried is that after recreating the registry keys (either by re-registering using w32tm and/or using an export
    from a working box, and importing it into the non-working server) either way after a reboot the problem re-occurs and the problem is that the W32TIME ACCOUNT is not listed in the PERMISSIONS tab of the CONFIG folder/key nor is it listed in the TIMEPROVIDERS
    key/folder.  when trying to add it, it IS NOT LISTED as an OBJECT to add.  HOW DO I RECREATE A LOCAL W32TIME ACCOUNT to allow my server to read the registry folders/keys. 
    i am able to get the time service to start during my session (while logged in, using w32tm /unregister and then w32tm /register) and of course net start w32time and it does start but after a reboot, crapola.
    not sure why it would be have permissions to read the necessary keys whilst in my session (since there is no w32time account given read permission listed (when checking the permissions of the CONFIG and TIMEPROVIDERS keys)) and then after a reboot the service
    fails due to (what I am guessing) is due to the W32TIME account not having the necessary permissions (since the account is not listed), there has to be an easy fix to recreate the W32TIME account, I checked another server but couldn't find anything in
    the registry about a local account.  On a side note, I have never seen this account anywhere in any 'local users and groups' anywhere.
    it would seem that the w32time account is not necessarily needed to be given permission to the keys, since it works during my session without the keys having the w32time account listed??
    after a reboot (with a service failure popup) and checking event log (system) shows two errors -
    event id 30 - w32time - as mentioned above and then shortly thereafter
    event id 46 - w32time - the time service encountered an error and was forced to shutdown - the error was : 0x80070002 - the system cannot find the file specified.
    i am then forced to /unregister and /register using w32tm. and then net start w32time and it starts and works fine....until i reboot.
    I have a feeling i will be demoting the DC and rebuilding it, probably quicker too.
     UPDATE 8/29/10 - 4:45pm est - I ended up removing its role as a dc and dns server...demoted, and also removed it from the domain (the issue still occurs) and it is (if i didn't mention before) a VM running on hyperv.  so i will keep the vhd file
    to tinker with if anyone has any suggestions, however at this point i am rebuilding a new vm as a 2008 DC.
    what it is!

    Hi, I have the same problem on Windows Server 2003 installed on Hyper-V server. I found an article with possible solution but I don`t have to test it. The article says that I have to disable the time sync on the Hyper-V configuration for this Server.

  • I have Windows XP Pro as my Bootcamp option under Snow Leopard. If I upgrade to Lion will I still be able to use this Bootcamp Windows XP operating system as I dont have Windows 7 yet

    I have Windows XP Pro as my Bootcamp option under Snow Leopard which works very well indeed.
    I would like to upgrade to Lion but am concerned re its lack of support for Bootcamp Windows XP
    Can I upgrade to Lion and boot into my old Windows XP BootCamp partition as I do at present OR
    must I buy Windows v7 and install under the new Bootcamp system.
    Also what happens to my Snow Leopard Time Machines backups - can I see them under Lion?

    Specifically, the posts by Dunsany and valkyr did the trick.  I booted in safe mode, uninstalled and deleted the Nvidia driver, disabled automatic driver installation, and restarted normally.  I then manually downloaded and installed the previous Nvidia driver for my graphics card (which at the time of this writing was 335.23, rather than the latest which was 337.88), and everything is now bueno!
    Two hiccoughs along the way: First, when I tried to uninstall the Nvidia driver the first time, when I restarted I got the login screen (which was a good sign), but it quickly went black again.  I powered down, restarted in safe mode again, and repeated the uninstallation process, and it worked the second time.  Second, when I started the manual install of the 335.23 driver, the computer played a sound similar to the one for disconnecting a USB device, and the screen went black.  I'd seen a lot about trying to increase the brightness (though it hadn't worked up to this point; but if you haven't tried it yet, might as well); I tried it, and it worked! So far I'm back up and running. [/fingers crossed]

  • Bootcamp - Windows 8.1 - Mac Pro (Late 2013) -- ATI Driver Crash

    Hi All,
    I have a open case with Apple as well on this but i can not seem to locate any information on this issue on the web at all.
    Case: 601052633
    Basically, we received a new Late 2013 Mac Pro, and out of the box proceeded to install bootcamp and windows 8.1.
    After the install and the bootcamp drivers are installed the screen starts to display lines and the ATi drivers eventually crash.
    If we uninstall the ATI drivers the screen is returned to normal and windows uses the generic drivers, however the graphics performance is degraded.
    If we install the latest ATI drivers (downloaded directly from the ATI webpage) the display issues reoccur.
    If left to run its path the screen becomes unreadble and eventually the system bluescreens.
    To recap all the things I have done:
    Straight out of the box we started the boot camp install. We use the latest Windows 8.1 Media.
    Once the process is completed the PC reboots as normal and we install windows on the “BOOTCAMP” partition.
    Windows installs without issue and when the bootcamp drivers window pop’s up it starts its install. At the “Chipset” drivers install the window starts to flicker, this appears to be normal but afterwards the screen shows “lines” on it. (these lines can be seen on image below)
    Once windows is booted the lines remain and progressively gets worse. Image below shows the ATI Criver crash and the blue screen. This takes 2-5 seconds. And depends on how much you move on the screen.
    Screen capture (shown Below) shows the issues, even with screen capture the issue is recorded.
    If we uninstall the ATI display drivers the issue disappears.
    Process of tests:
    Install Bootcamp windows 8.1 on Mac pro 2013 out of the box – Issue recorded
    Remove Bootcamp and update firmware on Mac.
    Install Bootcamp windows 8.1 on Mac Pro 2013 – Same issue.
    Updated ATI Drivers using ATI drivers off ATI website – Same issue
    Uninstalled ATI Drivers – 2 Generic Microsoft video cards detected – issue removed but video performance degraded.
    Updated Bootcamp Drivers – ATI drivers reinstalled – Issue returned
    Removed bootcamp, restored system to factory settings via web install.
    Installed Bootcamp windows 8 on Mac Pro 2013 – Same issues
    Removed bootcamp restored System to default
    Tried installing windows 7 – not supported
    Installed Windows 8.1 and ran screen captures and diagnostics.
    We have also tried using different display ports, Different display adaptors, Different monitors.
    Mac OS is not affected.
    Note Mac is “out of the box”, Windows is a next next next install. No changes or software is installed.
    Any support would be appreciated.
    Cheers

    I had this exact same issue and had been hunting it down since i first received my Mac Pro back in May 2014. I researched the problem all over the place but I have no idea why i did not find this post, or in fact why Apple techs did not find this post either.
    Bottom line: In my case I have pretty much proved this was a problem with the AMD FirePro D300 video card/s. They basically can't cope with Windows graphics needs.
    I have a new Mac with D500 cards, and now the problem is almost completely gone. I can recreate if i run certain situations and a screen saver. Upon refresh, there is a chance the card will crash, but showing a slightly different outcome.
    Having read the prior posts, the D700 may also have the same issue??
    Longer story and background: I am not exactly an expert, but i did try many different things and probably spent in excess of 200 hours onto tech support and installing, reinstalling, trying different monitors, trying different software. Eventually i was so frustrated and in tears with this issue.
    The major problem over all this time was the constant response from Apple that this was not an Apple issue since the Mac OS was not showing any issues.
    I was at the time a new Mac convert, my brother had purchased the 'awesome' machine for me as a birthday gift, with the goal that we could play a specific game together. My disappointment in Apples inability to recognize or even attempt to recognize that this was related to the hardware in the Mac itself was constant and ongoing.
    My final visit to the Apple store to again visit the 'Genius' bar came up yet again with the most senior tech in the store telling me that there were no problems identified with the hardware and that this was not their issue. Totally frustrating. I was rather hoping, in the good tradition of true geeks, that this would have been a challenge to hunt down. I was pretty sure they trusted me that this was not a standard Windows issue, and thus was hoping they would switch out individual pieces of components (video cards being my first choice) to see if that the problem repeated. Nope, didn't want to do it.
    My response was to threaten with legal action - not something i enjoyed doing, plus that i would NEVER buy an Apple product again. Since I was a new business client, this may have had an impact.
    This wonderful Manager at the store agreed that he wanted to take the hardware out of the equation and see if I still had the issue. So he, amazingly, agreed to refund in full for the machine and I could order a new one.
    As i was convinced this was hardware related, since I had the Quad core, D300's, 12 gig machine and my brother had the top of the range six processor, D500s, 16gig memory machine which did NOT have this issue, running identical software, when i reordered the Mac Pro, I bumped it up to the D500s (still Quad core) and 16gig of memory (also had the 1TB drive partitioned 40/60 in bootcamps favor).
    I tentatively installed windows after a couple of days of normal Apple usage (software updates included).
    I then hammered the system with the same software and installs.
    Its been up and running for perhaps 2-3 weeks now, and I have not seen the issue at all, other then when i had screen saver running and 4 instances of the game running (Everquest for those of you who are interested - but the software is almost irrelevant, since i have had this issue using internet explorer or Chrome).
    So..  I urge Apple to review this issue with the D300s and either remove them from the configuration options or resolve the issue. One of the powerful selling things for this wonderful machine is its ability to run Windows in native mode. I like it because I also want to get into App Development, so the dual option boot option is just what i wanted.
    Responding to us poor Windows installers with 'not my problem' simply isn't good enough and should never have been something i had heard.
    All good now, I am happy with the end result, but I would like Apple to recognize this IS AN ISSUE THEY NEED TO ADDRESS.
    I apologize if my technical knowledge is not a strong as it might need to be in relaying this information to you guys, but hopefully it all makes sense.

  • Large first-time sync fills up C: drive

    I just got a new 80GB video iPod for Christmas. I store a large number of ripped music files, one season of a TV series, and some photos on an external hard drive, and manage them through iTunes. The grand total for all this content was around 60GB. Long ago, I configured iTunes to use the G: drive (the external hard drive) as the location for all my content.
    The first-time sync to the new iPod went fine--automatic, not manual--except that something kept filling up the C: drive. (Again, the music is actually stored on an external G: drive.) I de-installed things during the sync to free up extra GB of space. As soon as they disappeared, iTunes kept filling them up. I'm now out of hard disk space on C:, with no idea what iTunes or the iPod did to fill up this space.
    If there's some cache that needs to be cleared, nothing has cleared it yet, and I have no idea where to find it (or what the consequences of clearing it will be). The process seemed smart enough to use what space was available, but no more. In other words, the sync continued, even after there was no room left on the C: drive.
    I had recently updated iTunes, which for reasons unknown, blew away my music library. I had just rebuilt it before doing the sync.
    The lack of space on the home PC puts me in a dangerous situation, given how fussy WIndows gets when it doesn't have spare room on the hard disk to use for updates and other operations. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
    Here are other specifics, for what they're worth:
    Operating system = Windows XP
    iPod firmware version = 1.2 (couldn't update to 1.2.1 because of the lack of disk space)
    iTunes version = 7.0.2
    External hard disk = Western Digital, mounted via USB
    iTunes option, Keep iTunes Music folder organized = true
    Podcast subscriptions = none
    HP desktop   Windows XP   See posting

    There isn't any cache for iTunes, other than the buffer for streaming radio. What you might want to do is search your My Documents\My Music\iTunes\ folder and see if there is anything in there other than the .xml library file. I know you did a search for *.mp3 but check it anyway...there is a chance that iTunes converted the files from *.mp3 to *.m4a (AAC audio)

  • I need help transferring Bootcamp (Windows XP) from my old Macbook Pro to the new one. How do I make bootable clone of Bootcamp?

    Hi I just got a new MacBook Pro I need help transferring Bootcamp (Windows XP) from my old Macbook Pro to my new Macbook Pro  Mac OS X 10.7.4  2.6 Ghz Intel Core 17. How do I make bootable clone of Bootcamp?

    you can't just move XP even if you took the hard drive and have Windows boot and function.
    Apparently there are Windows tools to sanitize the OS and strip all the motherboard drivers and services.
    Time to get a supported OS. Don't want to pay, then use 8 for the time until it goes on sale.
    There are no drivers for even Vista on 2011 and later Macs.

  • Date and Time Sync at boot for Active Directory/Open Directory Authenticati

    All the macs in my school district are set to automatically sync their time with a network time server. They do not do this unless the system preference is opened. This poses a problem as all our users must authenticate against an Active Directory and an Open Directory server. If the time is out of sync they can not login, and therefore can not fix the time. I must then login in with a local admin account set the time and then the network account can login. I have tried using direct IP addresses for the NTP server. That doesn't work either. I have adjusted the tolerance of the AD server to accept a large discrepancy in time (did not work). Set the users to be mobile accounst (local home folders), did not work. The only fix will be to ensure that the time does sync at boot, before login. Is there a way to force the computer to sync at boot to a given NTP server, prior to the login window appearing?

    I have come up with my own solution for this issue. It is a two part solution. We found that the computers are experiencing time drift and that after they get out of sync by 5 minutes they can no longer login. One would think that the setting in the Date and Time system preference to automatically synchronize the time would take care of this. That however is not the case that check mark does not affect the ntp service at all. It merely eliminates the need to click a button when entering the system preference. How did we discover this? well that is part of the solution. We used webmin (http://www.webmin.com) to look at the ntp configuration. No matter what changes we made with the Date & Time preferences nothing changed in the system ntp settings. So on to the solution: Install webmin, and configure the ntp protocol manually to sync at your desired interval (I did hourly). This stops time drift. Next create a startup item and associated plist to force time sync at boot (be sure to loop it as different machines initialize their network cards slower). I have made ours available for download (http://www.manheimcentral.org/~getzt/netTime.zip). I hope this helps others. We have found that this works fairly well.
