"Error: There was a problem adding your media." when importing audio, video, images

Hi there,
I'm using Siena on a couple of machines: a desktop PC with Win8.1 and an 8" tablet running Win8.1. On the tablet but not on the desktop, I receive the above error whenever I try to add an image, audio or video visual and then Add Media to it.
I can choose for instance an MP3 file or JPG but it never imports, instead telling me there was a problem.
On my PC it works fine.
I thought it may be because I have My Music and My Photos redirected to D: on the tablet, but moving them back seemed to make no difference. Further, it doesn't matter *where* I try to open media from -- I get the same error. I've uninstalled and reinstalled
the app completely to no avail.
While I can develop on my PC, I really want to be able to do so on the tablet.
Any suggestions?

Hi Solitaire01, what you describe is supported scenario which should just work. Let me gather more information about the environment you have and in the same time suggest a few things to try.
First, can you share the brand and the model of the tablet exhibiting the issue? Do you see any error message and if yes - what is the text of the message? Are you able to see the desired image in Siena Beta2 when you right click open the top appbar and
select AppData -> Embedded Media -> Images ?
Here is something you may want to try as an alternative:
1) Copy your images to your Pictures folder, which is usually in C:\users\<your_username>\Pictures
2) Add an image visual
3) Set the Image property of the visual to "C:\users\<your_username>\Pictures\<some_image.jpeg>"
Please do include the double quotes in the expression.
This should render the image. Please note that when you use this method of rendering images, video and audio, you'll need to check the checkbox "Download and include images, video, ........" in the Publish backstage.
Hope this helps and looking forward to hearing from you about your tablet brand and model!

Cannot place order ERROR: "There was a problem adding your product to cart"

Hey guys,
Well, once again Best Buy's online system is preventing me from making an order. It seems like nearly every time I log in I experience some new problem. This time, I'm unable to add anything to my cart. It doesn't matter what item I try to add to my cart or what browser I use or if I clear cookies...it happens every time, on every browser, with every product in the store. The error shows a red & white triangle with a message "There was a problem adding your product to cart".
Just to clarify ahead of time: 1) I have already tried signing in using 4 different browsers (explorer, firefox, chrome, opera) & they all give the same error; 2) Prior to posting here I researched this problem & found out it is somewhat common & has been occurring since at least 2012 on BestBuy.com; 3) Every time someone posts in here about this problem, customer service offers the same "fix" every time - to sign out, clear their browser cache of cookies, shut down the browser, restart the browser, sign back in, etc.... The only problem is, this "solution" has not worked ONE time our of the many times this problem has cropped up in here over the past 3+ years. Why this "solution" keeps getting told to people even though it never works is beyond me. But, there you have it.
Just to clarify: I have already tried this solution, And just like with everyone else before me, it didn't work for me either. So, what's the next step? There must be something else that can be done other than waiting a couple more days for it to magically fix itself (it seems that is the only thing that ever "works"...is to let several days go by and the problem ends up getting fixed in some back-end server-side patch up).
What I'm hoping for from you is a solution that can fix this immediately. This problem has already prevented me from making a couple purchases for items that were temporarily on sale over the past couple days. So, those are lost sales for Best Buy. What I'm hoping to do now is pre-order the Elder Scrolls Online (PS4) in order to take advantage of the $10 pre-order reward. The game releases on Tuesday the 9th. So, in order to get this done in time I need to place the order sometime today (on the 8th).
With all these repeated technical problems making purchasing a chore & wasting my time every single time I want to buy a product it's almost as if Best Buy is telling customers "We don't care if our online system works reliably...go spend your money at Amazon instead". lol
Thank you in advance for your timely help on this matter.

Hello mjswooosh,
I'm very disheartened to hear that you've had ongoing problems when attempting to order from BestBuy.com. Our goal is ever to provide a fun and efficient shopping environment! Certainly creating aggravation serves neither you nor us and I apologize sincerely for this having been your experience.
We recommend the troubleshooting steps you mentioned (i.e., clearing the browser cache, deleting temporary internet files and cookies) because this is the most common cause of this type of problem. I too have encountered this issue from time to time and these steps have almost always resolved the problem. I say almost always because there's one further step you can try: ensure that you have signed out of BestBuy.com, then perform the browser maintenance steps we've recommended. Afterward, before signing in to BestBuy.com, add your desired items to your cart and sign in as part of the checkout process. When the standard steps have not netted a resolution for me, this has solved the problem each time.
I hope this helps. I'm very grateful that you took the time to write to us with your concerns and for sharing your very valuable feedback about your online experience.

Error "There was a problem adding your product to cart."

Is there anyone at Best Buy who can help me to make a purchase?
I have called many time and even reached out to the moderators on this fourm a number of times. No luck. Wow, guess BB does not really care... Or maybe noone at BB is qualified to help...
I really would like a soultion so I could make an online purchase...

Hello mcmay,
Thank you for joining us on Best Buy Unboxed.
I note that you've been working with my peer Tasha on this issue. It looks like she sent you a private message with instructions shortly after you made this post, so I encourage you to follow the steps she provided and continue working with her toward a resolution.

Error "There was a problem updating your account" and now I can't use editor.

I've owned my adobe for 4 days now and yesterday I tried opening/editing a photo and it froze up and now will not allow me to do anything because of the error "there was a problem updating your account". After 4 phone calls of waiting a total of 74 minutes now, I'm a little disappointed at my new purchase & just need help. Anyone???

It's a rare day when Windows comes up with an actual solution to an error.
So, the editor is still shutting down but the message is now a general "an error has occurred and Photoshop Elements needs to shut down" message?
See if a reset of your application preference file fixes it.
Fastest way to reset preferences when using Windows:

Also it's good to look at what the splash screen is saying as it crashes. Usually, it's a good clue.
If by chance it crashes when reading twain, see this:

Lenovo U430: "There was a problem resetting your PC" error

I'm trying to install Windows 8.1 in my brother's new U430 touch. I created the recovery USB drive (formatted as FAT32). When I insert it and proceed with installation, it counts up to just a few percent of resetting and then says "There was a problem resetting your PC". It doesn't give me any information or choice other than to cancel the process.
How did you guys reinstall the OS after upgrading to an SSD? Did anyone else run into this problem?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

When you say restore through OKR, you mean with the blank SSD installed, I should go to the recovery menu and refresh from there?
Answer: No. Partitions must exist and there should be some files in the hidden partitions for OKR to restore. So you must recreate the partitions for okr to work.
I don't have a way of clean installing the OS. That's the whole issue. I've put in SSDs in three other laptops in the past and each of them allowed me to create full recovery disks to reinstall a factory version of Windows on the new SSDs. I find it odd that Lenovo would choose to take that option away.
Answer: The factory copy of the OS is place in a hidden partition in the hdd. To restore or install it you have to run OKR through the Novo button if the OS does not exist. Options:
1. Recovery Dvd sets can be ordered from Lenovo. Just give them a call to inquire about it.
2. Make the USB OKR Recovery flash drive. This will recreate all the partiitons including the OS installer.
3. Clone the hdd using the included ssd cloning program or a third party program. You need to make a repair later to make the okr operational.

How can I solve a Parse Error: "There was a problem parsing this package"

I developed a really simple app in Flash Pro CC for android. I published it using AIR 13.0 for Android. When I tried to install it I received the Parse Error: "There was a problem parsing this package"
Im not sure if the problem has something to do with my app xml file, but here it is:

What do you think is the best to check?

i don't see any problem with your manifest.
try saving your fla and the published files to a new directory and see if the error resolves.

Ipad ios 4.2 update error - "there was a problem downloading the software..

Hi All -
Super excited to get 4.2.1 up and running. I had the buggy beta of 4.2 running on my iPad but now when I try to restore my iPad to get the most recent version of 4.2.1 running, I get this error:
"There was a problem downloading the software for the iPad. The requested resource was not found.
I've restarted iTunes and the computer and I'm still getting the same error. I've looked for the .ipsw file online but can't seem to find it anywhere. It's not an Apple's Support/Downloads section either.
Anyone know where to download the new update? I'm dying without Airplay, Airprint and so on not working here.
Thanks!
CH

Hi,
this should have been addressed by Apple I guess, but luckily we found out the solution in the company. Yesterday all our iPads (with 4.2 beta iOS for dev) stopped working, displayed the Connect to iTunes scrren and throw errors when trying to sync like 'The requested resource was not found' (when tried to Restore) and Error Code: 0xE800005D (when iTunes first just tried to reinstall apps).
Here is what we did to reanimate all four iPads in the company:
First you need to enter Recovery mode with the iPad, then recover the iOS software (probably the latest). Here is how to do it:
1) Fire up iTunes on your computer, and plug in the USB cable in the computer, but not in the iPad!
2) Do a hard reset, ie. press and hold down Sleep/Wake and Home buttons simultaneously, don't bother with the switch off prompt, just keep pushing the buttons.
3) When the screen goes blank, but before the Apple logo comes up, release the Sleep/Wake button and quickly plug in the USB into the iPad too. Keep pushing the Home button, until the Recovery mode dialog in iTunes comes up.
4) Act according to the prompts, and wait for the image to download and extract (can be 10-15 minutes depending on your internet connection, the image is some 550Mb).
That's it, you can safely restore your apps and other content to your recovered iPad.
Hope this helps,
David

IPad update Error- There was a problem downloading the software for the iPad .... network settings

"iPad update Error- There was a problem downloading the software for the iPad X you do not have enough access privileges for this operation. Make sure your network settings are correct and your connection is active, or try again." is the error. The rest of iTunes, sycning, and ipad operations work. I am on OSX 10.6.8. iTunes is the most recent addition.
I've been having this problem for a while but it has yet to go away. Any help please?

OK. Good. The most likely culprit is either your firewall or anti-virus software. Temporarily disable both while you are doing the update (then, of course, turn them back on when you are done).

Exchange setup error: "There was a problem accessing the registry on this computer"

Hi,
i am trying to install Exchange 2007 SP1 in a Windows 2003 Server standard 32 bits version.
During the "Readiness checks" i received the next error in "Hub transport role prerequisites":
Error:
There was a problem accessing the registry on this computer. This may happen if the Remote Registry service is not running; it may also indicate a network problem.
Remote Registry service is running. I've searched for the error in google and in some topics appears that the error is due to the "Client for Microsoft Networks" and "File and Printer Sharing" is not installed in the LAN properties. The server has 2 network cards and in both of them is checked. One of the connections is disabled.
I dont know what more to do, any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

No, firewall is disabled.

Thanks so much for your reply. In the meantime, everything else is working. I called Apple support and they were very unhelpful, wanted to charge me for support on a phone I'm trying to get rid of to upgrade to the iPhone 5, but, I can't get rid of it until I synch it to my computer.... Any suggestions to see what's blocking it?
