Getting the message "Error generating preview" when building the installer.

I'm getting this error when attempting to expand the application in the installer. However, I am able to preview the built application without errors. Please see the attached screen shots. I have built this application several times before without incident. I made some modifications to the application and now I'm getting this error. What does it mean? I'm using Win XP and LV8.5.

If I understand this correctly, you are able to build the executable--it's just that you are not able to see the preview in the Application Builder. Is that right?
I searched some of our internal documentation. I found a record of a customer who also experienced the "unable to generate preview" error when upgrading to a new version. He was able to solve it by making sure that all of the VIs ini the build were saved in the current version of LabVIEW. This may be helpful for you.
Also, I would like to recommend that you create a new forum thread rather than posting on a very old thread like this one. You will generate more discussion from the other ni.com users. It also helps our R&D department to automatically keep track of how often these issues are reported.

Go into Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and make sure that your phone number is checked and iMessage reads as activated. Remove the checkmark from the email address and make sure that only the phone number if checked. It should appear grayed out, but should still have a checkmark. If the phone number does not have a checkmark, then turn off iMessage, wait a few moments and then turn iMessage back on and make sure that it activates.

Error of heads when build the .dll by visual studio 2003

I am trying to call the dll function in labVIEW which build by visual studio 2003.
while I compile the basic program in visual studio 2003,the dll will be built successfully,but if I include heads like or in my program, etc.Compiling has the error of ,so the dll can not be built.
I have trued to look for the solution in NI Discussion Forums,but havent seen the related article about the error of including .
If someone can answer this for me,that will be a great help,and I'll be so appreciate if anyone get me out
of the trouble.
Sean

I'm a little unclear about your question. What is the exact error that you are receiving and at what point are you receiving it? Is the error occurring when calling the DLL in LabVIEW or is it occurring when building the DLL in Visual Studio? Further clarification about exactly what the problem is and where it is occurring would be a big help!

Published to folder iWeb site always using Times New Roman for every piece of text in published site and not showing the original text style used when building the site in iWeb.

Dear All
Hello from rainy, windy and cold North East England! I need to ask for your help as I'm new to iMac and new to iWeb and it's frustrating the life out of me!
I'm just beginning to build a website for my business. Previously, I used Frontpage, but it's been that long since I used it - I've forgotten half of it and so, I'm using iWeb instead as it's silly to use an iMac for business but a PC laptop for the website design.
I've got the background image I want on the homepage (beautiful image of a rain forest - even if I do say so myself!) and I'm trying to enter a text box at the lower half of the screen, in the centre of the page saying 'click to enter'. I type in the text, I edit it so as to change it to the font style of my company (Gill sans MT) and then I publish the site to a folder so that I can see what it would look like when viewed via the internet. When I do this - the font changes size to a bog standard size of 'so small you need a magnifying glass to read it', it changes colour from black to purple (which looks disgusting) and it changes font style from Gill Sans MT to Times New Roman.
It doesn't matter if I delete the entire site and start again or delete the text box, and insert a new one. I've googled this subject until I'm blue in the face and I can't find an answer - can anyone suggest anything that will help?
Many thanks for your help,
Best wishes,
Sean.

Try the following:
delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
Click to view full size
launch iWeb and try again.
NOTE: If you don't use Web Safe Fonts any computer that does not have that font installed will substitute another font for it and change the look and feel of the web page.
So it's safest to use one of those web safe fonts.

Mail messages visible in preview, when opened the body disappears

My emails are visible, but only in preview. When the mail message is opened, the header info and subject are visible but the body of the email is blank. Thoughts?

Close the Mail app and is going to work.
How to:
1 - Go to Home Screen
2 - On Home Screen, double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar.
3 - Press and hold any Mail app until it start shaking.
4 - Press the " - " in top left of the Mail app, it will close the app, don't worry about this.
5 - Press Home Button to go to Home Screen.
6 - Open Mail and the body mail will be there.
If that doesn't work then do a reset and see if they show after the iPhone has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPhone equivalent of a reboot.

I receive the message "Error: Failed to register" when installing Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.135 o

I receive the message "Error: Failed to register" at the end of attempting to reinstall Adobe Flash Player 11.5.502.135 (after a complete uninstall of all Adobe programs) on my older machine running Windows XP and the older browser IE 7. I have tried the offline download installer and my Google Chrome browser setting is "allow all sites to run Java". I allowed the program to run from my AVG firewall dialog box. Windows firewall did not ask. I am logged in as administrator. What should I do because some programs prompt me for this install in order for some functions to work correctly.

See if this topic contains a solution for your problem: How do I fix Windows permission problems with Flash Player?

Errors were found when compiling the workflow

My company has consolodated many SharePoint sites into one with many subsites to save money. I ported my existing libraries from theold site to the new site (Same version of SP). The workflows did not go with the libraries, as expected. I re-created each
workflow, and every time have gotten the same error message: "Errors were found when compiling the workflow. The workflow files were saved but cannot run."
When I click Advanced I see some variation of the following:
(-1, -1) Compilation failed. Could not find file 'C:\Users\TEMP.*domain*\AppData\Local\Temp\ **and then a different .dll file every time'
I have not seen any other examples of this online. For some, creating a new task and history list for the workflow allowed it to compile, but not always.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that Errors are found when compiling the workflow.
I recommend that you can check whether the file exists under the path 'C:\Users\TEMP.*domain*\AppData\Local\Temp\”.
If it exists, you can create a silmple workflow to check whether it works.
If it does work, you can add executionTimeout property in web.config file to increase the timeout interval(Make a copy of the web.config file before editing anything).
For more information, please refer to:

When trying to work with Agilent 34401A multimeter (serial RS-232 connection), HP34401A Getting Started.vi gives always the message: "Error 1073807369 occurred at Old VISA Open ".

Baud rate and parity are set correctly, RS-232 cable is also connected correctly. My QuickBasic program has no problems to read and write to the Multimeter. It is obviously a software problem: the same error is persistent if I disconnect RS-232 cable.
I downloaded NI-VISA 2.6 for Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000/XP frorm digital.ni.com and installed it. But it did not help.
Thank you in advance
Best regards
Alexei Soloviev

Hi Steve

When I try to open video files purchased through iTunes in Quicktime, I get the message: 'Error 23132: an unknown error occurred. This never happened until I updated iTunes, but when I try to go back to the previous version, I still get the message.

When I try to open video files purchased through iTunes in Quicktime, I get the message: 'Error 23132: an unknown error occurred. This never happened until I updated iTunes, but when I try to go back to the previous version, I still get the message. It is more convenient for me to play videos in Quicktime since iTunes is such a memory hog. Please help.

You may get better results if you switch to this alternate version: iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) and, if needed, reinstall QuickTime. The new (nearly) all 64-bit version doesn't seem to play well with QuickTime. Perhaps if DRM authentication is required QuickTime needs to be able to see something that is part of the older 32-bit code.

Hello Charleen,
It sounds like you are unable to reinstall iTunes because of this error message 7. I recommend the troublehsooting found in the following article that mentions that error named:

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
"iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows Error 126)”
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
Check for .dll files
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
Reboot your computer.
Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

Hi Ablondel24,
I understand that you are getting a 404 message when you access a website from a Mac, not a PC.
First check the cache for the site:
Reload the webpage while bypassing the cache using '''one''' of the following steps:
*Hold down the ''Shift'' key and click the ''Reload'' button with a left click.
OR
*Press ''Command'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Mac)
Second try to [[Delete cookies to remove the information websites have stored on your computer]]
Let us know if this solves the issues you are having.

Thank you Bturko in the future only migrate/copy/transfer your documents and settings. Adobe applications especially are not designed to be transferred from one computer to another. It is possible to recover however. I would recommend the following steps:
Run the uninstaller located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers
Run the CC Cleaner Tool to ensure complete removal - Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.
If you need to download a fresh copy of the installation files they can be downloaded at Download CS3 products.
Run the installer and reinstall Creative Suite 3.
