  • Windows server 2008 can't access control panel and can't choose "properties" under "my computer"

    Hello everyone!
    Today after a schedule restart on the night I thought everything was normal with my server. But When i go to "start -> control panel" it show me "empty". And if I try to lunch "change/remove software" via search window in
    "start" then nothing happen. 
    I know also that I can't right click on "computer" and choose "properties" in the start-menu. 
    Also another problem. I did install Fbackup to make schedule file backups on the night. The software worked well to launch when I had installed it, but after the night, this morning it just crash on launch.
    I can also tell that I did add from 4 CPU core to 6 CPU cores.

    Hi,
    Have you tried to see if the issue persists when you boot into Safe Mode? Since you it shows blank when accessing Control Panel, please check if the policy setting below has been
    configured.
    Please choose Start – Run - type (gpedit.msc) - click on (Administrative Templates) - (control Panel) -
    Prohibit access to Control Panel and Show only specified Control Panel applets. If they were configured, please disable them to see if it could resolve the issue.
    In addition, the issue may also be caused by the virus, please run a system scan to see if there is any virus. At this time, you can also launch Control Panel apps from the command
    line, and here's a list of .cpl files for your reference that you can print out:

    You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC.  You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

  • How can i set up icloud control panel on a microsoft surface 2 with windows rt 8.1

    How can I setup icloud control panel on a microsoft surface 2 with windows rt 8.1.

    I apologize for semi-hijacking the topic of this thread from "Multiple iCould IDs with single AppleID. Possible?" 
    Perhaps my reasoning for doing this was flawed, but here it is.  That thread was started back in June when the real details of iCloud were somewhat conjecture.  It is now about 14 pages long.  There are some recent posts to the thread, but for the life of me I can't tease a solution to my question above out of them.  I just may not be reading carefully enough.  If so, I apologize.
    What I am looking for is more of a STEP BY STEP guide to setting up iOS 5 and OS 10.7.2 for a family in my situation with my needs.  I think I do represent a fair segment of users.
    If the monitors of this forum think my thread should be tack on to the end of the above mentioned forum...by all means do so.
    Honestly, If Steve were alive today I think he would not be happy with this situation faced by Apple customers.  Steve always said his guiding mantra for his products was..."It just works."  I honestly believe he meant that.  But, with regard to this iCould business...for normal pedestrian users like myself,  I would have to say, "It just doesn't work."

  • How can I see the windows 8 contacts in outlook 2013 with groups preserved

    I an see my windows 8 contacts.
    they are all nice and some are broken down into groups.
    (I double clicked an old .wab and they imported nicely into windows 8, preserving groups)
    now how can I see this same structure as an email lists with groups in outlook 2013?  I see the emails, but no groups.
    can you help?
    thanks

    Those groups are not supported in outlook - outlook uses a different format for groups. You'll need to import the individual contacts into Outlook and recreate the groups.
