Can't Get My Dell Downloads to Work

Hi, I'm new to the community so I have no idea where this topic should be posted (I can't find an appropriate sub-topic under software to post this). Basically my problem is that I can't get My Dell Downloads to register my system so that I can download my factory installed software (I plan to do a clean install of Windows 7). I checked the box that says "I agree to user terms" and click register, then a window pops up and I clicked "allow." But then nothing happens and it stays on that page. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem? Moderators if this isn't the right section for this topic please move this thread to the right place. Thanks.

Oops - I messed up.  sorry, guys. 
I was trying to use Firefox, though the site specifically only supports IE - says so right there.
Tried it again in XP/IE6, clicked Register, installed the Active X control, watched it hang for about 30 seconds, then got a "service tag not supported" message - which is more reasonable.
Found the FAQ page for it, and it requires .net Framework 3.0 to work - which may or may not be the problem:

  • Can't get version based downloads to work

    I am new to JNLP and trying to get version based downloads to work. I have read everything I can find, but I still seem to be missing something. My setup:

      </web-app>Things I have discovered (possibly in error?):
    1) I do not need to include the jaxp.jar and parser.jar files because I am using JDK 1.4

    I keep getting the following error in WebStart when I loadup the jnlp:

         at com.sun.javaws.cache.DownloadProtocol.doDownload(Unknown Source)
         at com.sun.javaws.cache.DownloadProtocol.getDownloadSize(Unknown Source)I can get everything to work without version based downloads. Does anyone have any clue what I am doing wrong?
    Lance

    I found my own error. After loading up sun's reference implementation server in NetBean's debugger I noticed that it was only handling .jnlp files. Going back to the "Packaging JNLP Applications in a Web Archive" document I found my mistake. My web.xml files should have looked like this.

         </servlet-mapping>
      </web-app>The difference being the <url-pattern> tag. It now tells the web server to handle all files not just .jnlp.
    This allowed me to download version based jnlp entries. I still can't get jarDiff things to work, but I will keep banging my head against the wall till I figure that out.

  • I can not get the itunes download to work

    I am trying to download itunes from the site but it saves it, then i can't find it to run it...any suggestions?

    Try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?
    If you still can't get a working installer from the standard download page, try the following direct download links for 11.1.5.5:
    iTunes 11.1.5 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-02-25)
    iTunes 11.1.5 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-02-25)

  • After I exported a PDF to a Word doc and downloaded it, I can't get the pointer tool to work.

    After I exported a PDF to a Word doc and downloaded it, I can't get the pointer tool to work. When I click on the document text, the only tool is the "move" tool. I can't edit or select text. Please advise.

    Version of Adobe: Adobe ExportPDF (not Pro)
    Operating system:  Windows 8.1
    Steps I am taking: When the PDF file is selected and opened, I clicked on Tools menu on right side of the screen; then I clicked on Select PDF file; then under Convert To, I selected Microsoft Word (*.docx); then I hit the box below that; and clicked Convert. I then see the message that says it is Converting to Export PDF Online. Then I see a link below that, that says Download Converted File. This takes me online to Adobe Acrobat .com, where, I see the command, Export PDF, and see a blue box on the same screen that says Select PDF Files to Export. I click on the thumbnail of the file I want to export. This brings up, online, a screen containing the file I wanted to convert to Word. Then, on the same screen, I click on the icon on the right hand of the screen that says Download. then I click on the box on the bottom the screen that contains the Word document I had wanted to convert. This brings up the Word doc. in Compatibility Mode the latest Word version, which I am unfamiliar with and which has a Picture Tools tab that I cannot escape from and I cannot get any selection tool other that the Move pointer, and I cannot find the Select text pointer to select any text on the page. I don't want this Word version and do not know how to return to the old version of Word that I am familiar with.
    Can you help me, please?

    As already provided, if you don't have such in your iTunes library, on your computer, then there is no way to put it back on your phone. Apps are DRM protected, so even if you found a copy somewhere, you wouldn't be able to use it.

  • Can not get Text-to-Speech to work

    I can not get Text-to-Speech to work. In "Settings", I can go into "Voice input & output", then to "Voice Output; Text-to-speech settings" and then to "Install voice data; Install the voice data required for speech synthesis" but it is "grayed out". I have downloaded Pico TTS several times and I have soft-reset and hard-reset the device several times. Still no text-to-speech
    Any thoughts on what I can do to get text to speech to work?

    Odd.... I tried both Vlingo and Handcent and neither of those did Text to speech either. Very odd. I am using same Bluetooth headset that worked on my other HTC device.
    Any other thoughts?
    Did you activate InCar in Vlingo?  I just checked this and it works for me.  Once you activate InCar, you should hear "Vlingo InCar".
    If Vlingo InCar doesn't work for you, have you considered getting another Bluetooth headset that has the ability to read texts to you, like the Blueant Q2?

  • How can I get a netgear wgps606 to work?

    How can I get a netgear wgps606 to work.  Just bought a new mac mini running Lion

    If the printer connects to the USB port of this print server then for many brands of printer you cannot use the vendor provided driver. Instead you need to look at an alternate driver that supports this type of network connection. Gutenprint is one option and it is preferred because it is free. In previous versions of OS X it was included with the OS but with Lion it is not included so you will have to download it from here.
    If the above does not help then please reply with the brand and model of printer you want to connect to the print server. And it would also help if you could provide a bit more detail as to what your issue is.

    OK, let's try these................ 
    1 - Boot up from your install DVD and run "Repair Disk" from the Utility menu.  When done, restart back to your desktop, repair permissions and restart your computer.  Re-connect your printer. 
    2 - Download & install the Gimp drivers. Make sure the one you install is compatible w/your OS-Gutenprint 5.2.8-pre1.   Repair permissions, restart your computer & re-connect your printer when done.
    The Epson model I have, in order to get it to print wirelessly, I had to install a Gimp driver.
    3 - Check out the following KB Articles:
    Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Connecting to a network printer
    Epson Printer Drivers v2.10 OS X
    Adding a printer to your printer list in Mac OS X
    Mac OS X 10.4 Help: The printer I'm adding says "Driver not installed"
    ======================
    If still unsuccessful after trying all of the above, the problem could be your iBook or human error.  You can either call Epson & ask to speak with a Mac savy supervisor or return the printer & find another that is compatible w/your current OS.

  • How can I get itunes to download and install?

    How can I get itunes to download and install?

    You need to install it - just downloading does not necessarily install it. If you double click it, does it open an installer window? Or, can you simply drag it into your Applications folder (if it is not showing in Launchpad)?
    FWIW, your downloads folder is just a temporary "holding" place for your downloads - once you have installed applications or moved other files where they belong, you can empty that folder.
    PS - If this is what you downloaded, it is a disk image (.dmg) which means you need to double click it; you then need to move the icon and install it.
    Out of curiosity: is it working well? I'm curious because it is rather dated software.

    Have got a Windows Vista basic and had run a a trial version of LR4 on it - just purchased an LR5 without checking out the complete system requirements. Can I get a complete download of LR4 so that the money I've spent is not wasted. I am not interested in upgrading to Windows 7 currently.

    There are still retail packs of LR 4 to be found out there - for example, on EBay. It's just important to be careful whether it's a full version, an upgrade, or a student + teacher version. And to be certain it's genuine, and has a serial number which has never been activated before. The serial number that you get with that, should work with any 4.x version of LR, on either MacOS or Windows. And it will almost certainly be heavily discounted compared with the previous price direct from Adobe.
    Of course the other way is to upgrade to Windows 7 SP1, which should also be available discounted, and thus eke out the life of an older PC (I personally would not go to Win8 in such a case). Maybe pick up some RAM also, if that's a problem, provided you can do so cheaply (since that will be simply thrown away in due course, when you get a newer PC),
    Using LR4 instead of LR5 you do miss out on a few nice features, as well as potentially the Raw support and lens profiles for more recent camera equipment.
    LR 4 is obsolete as far as Adobe is concerned. They will not sell a Serial Number for it.

    WHY can’t I get a simple answer to my question?
    I keep going around and around in your system and I can’t talk to anyone.
    There are no chats that I can access.
    All I want to know is what do I do now?  How do I get the purchased version of Live Cycle?
    I went onto MY ORDERS, found the Order #, but there is no DOWNLOAD available.  So I clicked on the ENGLISH Version to Download and I get an error message.
    TRULY no one should have to waste this kind of time trying to do something SO SIMPLE.
