HP Prime - another bug with Ans

Ans used in approx(Ans) return not last answer. Software Version: 2014 3 31 (6030)

Hi,
I actually see 2 problems in that screenshot:
Firstly:
and:
so there is confusion between what the Prime displays and what it interprets. An old problem still not properly addressed.
Secondly:
The last answer is the maximum value for a Double Precision Floating Point. So something is going wrong and it just spits out what I assume to be MAXREAL (which I thought was the CAS limit, the HOME limit being 9.99999999999E499).
I suggest you post your bug reports on one of the following forums, which are read by HP calculator team members:

Regards.
Note: I do not work for HP, I just like playing with calculators :-)

Another bug with Siri punctuation

I apologize if it has already been reported but I was unable to find it before I posted this.
I am not sure if anyone else has noticed this bug yet but here is how it works. Hold down the home button until Siri responds. Say "message (someone in your contacts)". When Siri asks what you would like to say, respond with one word ONLY and then either "exclamation point" ( ! ) or period (.). It may work with others but I have not tried. In any case, Siri will hear you correctly (scroll up and look) but she will only put the puncuation mark in the text to send and not the word.
This will not work if you launch Siri and then say "Message (someone in your contacts) (WORD)!" all together or if you follow the above instructions but use more than one word. Does this happen to anyone else?

This is a topic that has been discussed in-depth on this forum. See these already existing threads: <https://discussions.apple.com/search.jspa?resultTypes=&dateRange=all&peopleEnabl ed=true&q=beatles+mono&containerType=14&container=2882&username=&rankBy=relevanc e&numResults=15>.

I think the problem is that the iTunes Store has the stereo versions but not the mono version, and it’s not consistently realising there’s a difference. How can I tell Match to upload songs from my computer that it’s wrongly matched?
To our knowledge the mono versions of the remastered Beatles catalog is not available on the iTunes store. At this time there is no easy way to force an upload.

ANOTHER BUG WITH N97

My local authorized Nokia ervice is telling me that all N97 have a bug where telephone conversation by using the loudspeaker is not possible. The person you are talking to can not hear you properly. The conversation is being cut and the voice is disappearing. I am experiencing this on my phone but since I do not see many users complaining about this, I would like your feedback. Can you confirm that there is a problem when using loudspeaker? If yes, why are so few people complaining about it? Is it something that can and will be fixed with new software updates?
Thank you, Matjaz

I have the same issue with mine. People say they can only hear every other word.
I just use a Bluetooth headset now

Another WRT600N storage link bug with Vista

Yet another annoyance with the WRT600N and Vista. Files made by the vista box on storage link (or made by xp, mixed system) suddenly become "write protected" but not really. Upon trying to delete files on this storage linked media, I get this error message:
An unexpected error is preventing the operation. Make a note of this error code, which might be useful if you get additional help to resove this problem: Error 0x8007045D: The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.
This seems to be a permissions snafu between the linked storage and Vista. The XP box can usually delete this stuff. Checking properties shows it to be completely free of read only or other flags that would prevent the deletion.
Any idea?

I'm getting the same problem only with the Linksys WRT650N router. I have a 1TB Cavalry USB drive connected, formatted NTFS (by Vista). I have Vista Business x64. 4gig RAM, AMD Athalon x2 6400 @ 3.4Ghz.
If I repair the LAN connection I can delete two files and then it goes back to saying I don't have the permissions.
Micorsoft says it's Linksys' problem. I haven't talked with Linksys because I just know they are going to say it's MS' problem.
Anyway, anybody have any ideas or solutions to this problem?

Is this yet another problem with 7.5 or is it just me . . .

Upgrade seemed to be fine, at first . . . now I keep getting distortion on songs. It seems to be quite random and just because a song has been distorted when I've listened to it once doesn't mean it will be when I listen to it again! It's driving me insane. Is this yet another bug or have I done something wrong (apart from upgrading to 7.5).

Hi Emlou,
If you have a Windows based operating system such as XP -
It seems to me that you are suffering what I am having the same problem with - the program takes up to much of your computer's processing usage. If you go into your task manager and watch performance as ITunes runs - you will see how much of the total computer usage it is taking at any given moment - that's why your songs are distorted, slowing, garbled, etc - the usage on mine spikes from 11% - 93% AT ANY GIVEN MINUTE! I have no idea why, but I have found that by going to your "Control Panel" and clicking on Quicktime you can adjust audio output to help. Click the audio tab, click Safe Mode Wavout only (checkbox) / Then adjust the "Rate" to 96kHz / Then adjust the "Size" to 16 bit. Close that and shut down and restart Itunes - it might help a little for you.
Maybe someone out there can help us find out why we are suffering with all the CPU usage trouble and how to adjust that spiking.
Thanks!

ICal bug with month view

I primarily use week view on iCal, but sometimes i switch to month view for a larger perspective. Often, i use month view to check for any leftover events from the previous month in case i forgot to delete one or two.
I just found a bug concerning this. If i click on "month" today, it'll take me to the month view for june 2011, and from there i can navigate forwards or backwards. However, may 2011 seems to have a bug. If i click on < from june, it does nothing; if i click again, it takes me to april 2011. Similarly, if i click on > from april it does nothing and if i click again it takes me to june.
It doesn't end there. The june/may thing happens only when the selected day (the one shaded light grey on the month and week views and bright blue on the little month tab on the left) is after 04 june. If a day from the first week of june (i have my weeks start on sunday) is selected, the < button does take me to may, but several events which i deleted a long time ago are showing up.
Now, i have an event set for today (04 june). Since the first four days of june are in the same week as the last three of may, the month view for may shows these four days, as any normal calendar app would.
If i use the month tab to the left to navigate, i can access may 2011 by selecting any day on that month. However, iCal's behaviour depends on which day was selected previously. If the previous day was in april 2011 or earlier, iCal will show the month of may completely empty, which is great because i have no leftover appointments from may; however, the box for 04 june is also empty, which it shouldn't be. If the previous day was in june 2011, it'll show may with a repeating event on every sunday except the first, which is completely absurd, since i have deleted this event (and why isn't it showing on the first sunday in may?); the box for 04 june, however, will correctly show the event i have set for this day. If the previous day was in july 2011 or later, it'll show may with the repeating event on all sundays (including the first one) and it won't show anything on the box for 04 june.
Obviously, there is a bug with may 2011.
In case it helps, i do have a repeating event set to all sundays until the end of existence, but i have deleted all the entries from may and previously, since they have obviously already happened. Also, i had many other repeating events set to happen on different weekdays; these are to repeat themselves weekly until about halfway through june, and they started on april or may (can't remember right now). Like the sunday one, i have deleted all the entries from may because they have already taken place. Strangely (and thankfully), none of these appear when i visit may from june or later, as does the sunday event.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Or am i forever stuck with week view, which has so far proven to be bug-free?
(I did a search on Google and another on the Apple forums for this issue but could find nothing, so i decided to ask the question myself. I apologise if somebody has already asked this question and i just couldn't find it.)

Greetings,
I have a vague recollection of someone else with this issue but haven't experienced it myself nor encountered it recently.
Troubleshooting:
1.) First make an iCal backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2966.
2.) Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical and / or "ical"
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
Hope that helps!

Another bug? Please tell me that its not true...

So I updated, everything was working great, album downloading went great, gapless works, etc. I didn't have any issues with sound or anything like that. My problem seems to be a little different than everyone else. And I've noticed 3 things.
1. My EQ settings for individual tracks only automatically update on the EQ intermittently. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it, I've tried with focus on the window, not on the window, changing the EQ setting to something different and then changing it back again. Any ideas?
2. Downloading from the iTunes Store is butt slow. I'm not entirely sure that this is a problem with the university network I'm on or what but my download speeds are only around 5kb/sec on a fiber backbone but the last episode of Alias currently sits at 133 hours until completion (5.5 days!) and that's completely unacceptable for the network that I'm connected to.
3. Downloads from the iTunes Store will randomly fail and restart from the beginning. This may be related to whether it's a university problem but I suspect there's a deeper underlying problem with my software. The error codes are different each time and I haven't been keeping track of them but they've appeared in the 9000 range as well as in the 5000 and 500 ranges.
So what say ye all?
P.S. Is it true what I'm hearing about downloaded artwork not being transferred to your iPod? I haven't noticed it.
Powerbook G4 1.5 Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1.256 MB RAM, 64 MB GEForceGO, 8x Superdrive

Ok, this is out of hand. My downloads just failed again. It seems like it gets to a certain point and then just starts over. I actually finished one the other night but then iTunes insisted on 'checking' the file...in actuality, this meant that it would waste processor cycles and supposedly limited bandwidth to mess up whatever was actually downloaded and delete the progress it had made. I can't believe that I'm the only one who has experienced a problem like this. The same applies to my problem with the equalizer. I know that some have bigger problems than this, however it seems like it's just another bug to add to the list of ones that Apple needs to fix rather soon in 7.0.1.
Also, I've sent a request for support to Apple through the iTunes site about both of these issues and not surprisingly haven't received a reply yet. With all the problems that have been reported thus far, I might not reply either...

Another BUG in Acrobat 9.4.5 -- Find doesn't work

I made the mistake of updating to the latest version Acrobat 9.4.5, and discovered that the Find feature doesn't work right. For example, I enter a word to search in the "Find" box, and click return. In past versions, the PDF would jump to the first instance of the term or phrase and highlight the word. Now, the PDF jumps to the page, but doesn't highlight the word! So... I'm stuck reading through text to find the word, which is a lot of extra work and time that I don't have. This is a critical problem because I search documents for terms all of the time in my job.
I've found one workaround that isn't very satisfactory, but it is better than nothing. Instead of using "Find Next in PDF", I use "Open Full Acrobat Search" which is a command off the Find pull-down menu. This command opens up a separate window, which is annoying because it disappears behind the document if you need to page through the PDF file. However, if I do the search, it shows all of the instances in a pane in the context of the sentence where it appears. Then, if I click on the instance of the word in this pane twice (Yes, TWICE), it will highlight the word in the PDF. You cannot use the Find Next button as you could in previous versions, because this function will not highlight the word. Anyway, given there are other bugs in this release that I've read about in this forum, I'll most likely just go back to the previous version and completely disable the automatic update feature in Acrobat. I wish going back was a quick process, but I don't think it is.
I'm also going to tell everyone in my circle of friends to avoid automatically updating Adobe Acrobat in the future. Adobe obviously doesn't test the software well. Wish I could charge Adobe for the time and frustration they've caused me!

Brianwrx,
     The Acrobat 9.4.5 update bugs where the first "hit" on each page is not highlighted when doing a Find/Search and no longer being able to use Shift & Ctrl on the Pages pane thumbnails to multi-select and move/delete pages are well reported by many to have been introduced coincident with the Acrobat 9.4.5 release and not a MS Windows update. I'm not sure what is going on with your 9.0.0 Pro Extended.
     For seasoned Adobe to break such commonly used features in Acrobat 9, never have regression tested these basic functions given the 3 month (or longer) release cycle, and not have broke it in Acrobat X doesn't reflect well on their development/test process. Then, there are web forum recommendations prodding to upgrade to Acrobat X -- which completely changed the User Interface and will result in significant loss of productivity while bridging the learning curve and dealing with new functional/compatibility problems. Furthermore, it is something how OCR Suspects are never found/flagged in Acrobat 9, and then were finally fixed in Acrobat X (forcing the need for a paid upgrade to get a bug fix and have to relearn the interface to boot).
     Adobe's poor quality 9.4.5 release update does me more harm than good when considering other settings to improve Acrobat security (turning off Java-Script, not automatically trusting sites from the Win OS security zones, and not allowing the opening of non-PDF file attachments with external applications under the Edit menu - Preferences). Adobe has made no official commitment to fix its bugs or provide a release date in the 10+ weeks since the awful 9.4.5 code was thrown over the fence to unsuspecting auto-update customers without any practical/simple way to back it off to 9.4.4 -- even though in all probability it will take the programmer one day each to fix the bugs with some additional time to test/release). It is interesting that there have been no critical Acrobat security issues (as evidenced by no Out-Of-Cycle releases since 9.4.5), which should mean their programmers have more time to fix these bugs and restore stable functionality in 9.4.6. As for "not being able to use Shift & Ctrl directly on the Pages pane thumbnails to move pages" (another 9.4.5 bug), the circumvention to drag a window around a group of pages, hold down Shift, and drag a window around a second group of pages should be further clarified with the following: Once your blue highlighted contiguous/non-contiguous pages selection is made, be sure to drag a thumbnail graphic directly to move the selection and don't try to drag the blue shaded perimeter area (which results in clearing the blue highlighting). This does provide a decent circumvention for that bug -- as compared to the cumbersome "Full Acrobat Search - Advanced Search Options - double-clicking each Result line" circumvention for the Find/Search first "hit" non-highlighting bug. I implore Adobe to listen to your customers and please take a "do no harm" conservative approach to updates/enhancements in the future.

Has anyone else noticed this bug with multitasking gestures on iOS 5?

I recently updated my iPad 2 to iOS 5 and have just noticed this bug with multitasking gestures.
If you're currently in an app and use the four-finger swipe up to open the app switcher, and then subsequently close another app that's open in the background from the switcher, the app doesn't seem to fully close. What I mean is that if you now use the four-finger swipe right/left to switch apps, when you get to the place where that app you closed was, it's still open, and after you view it, it pops back into the app switcher. It seems like the multitasking gestures feature isn't recognizing that you've closed the app and that it should skip it from now on.
If you do the above steps again, but this time after you close the app from the switcher, use the five-finger pinch to go back to the home screen, it seems to clear the "cache" being used by the the gestures feature. Now if you go back into any app and swipe left to right, the closed app won't load up anymore (which is how it should correctly work).
Has anyone else noticed this, or can anyone else reproduce the bug as I described? I'd appreciate it if an Apple employee could confirm that this is a bug in iOS 5 and not just something wrong on my end. Thanks in advance.

Hi keffa
After the time spent and attention to detail in replicating this fault, I do think that you should email your findings to Nokia Care to be found on:
http://www.nokia.co.uk/A4222231
This is after all a discussion forum and others may find the same bug, but until it is logged at Nokia there is little chance of future modification if required!
Done already. They may of course have corrected this in the 11.x firmware currently being rolled out but as I don't yet have access to it I can't say.

E71 Firmware Bug with USB Mass Storage.

Hi,
Just got a e71, it has the latest firmware, it's mostly good except for this bug.
If you install a new theme on a memory card and then attempt to use the USB for mass storage it will always lock the card no matter how you disconnect from the USB, it always reports Memory card in use.
What is supposed to happen is the phone is supposed to switch to a theme on the phone memory and unload the theme on the card, it does indeed switch themes, but does not unload the theme on the card, so the only way to free the card is to reboot the phone.
If anyone from Nokia is looking at this forum, you guys need to fix these little bugs with the firmware. A update to the OS the E71x is using would be nice by the way. I paid a lot of money for this unlocked phone and expect it to be rock solid.

I had this problem with the memory card. All you do is set the USB connection to PC suit and not Mass Storage. If it's in PC suit mode you don't loose the memory card and it always let you access it. I never bother with mass storage anymore. Also set to don't ask if you want. I ahve no issues since I di this and am using the 200 firmware.
To transfer files to the card I go into my computer, double click the picture of the nokia E71 and then double click the memory card and access it that way. Hope this helps as it's a pain installing everything on the phone.
Just another quick tip if you download the themes through your phone like me once installed and after a re-start something may try and install and fail once your phone starts up. It will do this everytime you re-start your phone. To fix the issue you have to browse the memory card with 'view hidden folders' selected in Windows and delete certain sis files from a certain folder. I can't remember off the top of my head but it explains it in another post in this forum. I can't take the credit for it.

HP Prime calculating bug

Hi, I'll get right to the issue i'm having with my HP Prime calculator. Recently during an exam where i was calculating the moments of inertia of certain bodies i encountered what i can only describe as a bug in the software because I can't figure any other reason why it would kick out the answer it did for such a seemingly simple function. After I had done all the laboreous work of simplifying the differential equations I just needed to add some simple fractions. As i have been operating this calculator for several weeks now, the only way i can get it to show a fraction in exact form is to type (number) / (number) and it shows it in exact form. In my case and for this particular calcuation I input (3/20) - (1/7) "enter". the answer Prime gave me was noticably unsimplified given that i needed it in simplified form. although the numerical, non-exact value was almost correct (.00714285714309 instead of the correct value of .00714285714286), generally Prime kicks out a simplified value. What it gave me was 214500215/30030030099 instead of 1/140. i'm just curious if i need to do something different to get a simplified/correct answer on the first go rather than having to do a work-around.
Thanks in advance

If you want an exact and simplified answer on the first go, do your calculation in CAS view rather than Home view. Try this experiment.
1. Go to CAS view, and enter your calculation (3/20)-(1/7). The Prime will respond with 1/140, the exact answer. Now press the a b/c key. The Prime will respond with 0.00714285714286, the approximate decimal equivalent. Keep pressing the a b/c key, and the Prime will toggle between the two answers.
2. Now try the same steps in Home view. The Prime will toggle between 0.007142857143 and 214500215/30030030099.
Remember, the true decimal value for 1/140 is an infinite repeating number. Since every calculator can store only a finite number of digits, it must truncate the value after a set number of digits, and this introduces a small error. The big fraction you got in Home view is not wrong, and it's certainly not a bug. It's just that Home view is not designed to handle exact values. The CAS, on the other hand, is designed to handle exact values, so when you tell it to show an approximate answer, its decimal form will be closer to the exact value, namely, 1/140.
The moral of the story is, use CAS view when you want exact values and Home view when you want approximate values. I tell my students to use fractions whenever possible (since those are usually exact) rather than converting them to decimal values. It's far easier to use 1/3 than 0.33333....[infinite number of 3s go here].

Mail app bug with jumping to new line below signature

Hi!
Since day one of using Lion i have this incredibly annoying bug with Mail application.
I have a formated signature in all my emails. Sometimes when I am composing a mail (or rather replying for one) and when I hit RETURN on keyboard, cursor moves BELOW signature and inserts new line below signature - not in place when it was when I hit RETURN.
The same is when I have cursor in middle of my message and hit enter. Nothing happens - text ater place when cursor was when I hit enter is staying where it was but cursor moves below signature and enters new line in there.
Anyone has solution for this?

Triple-click the word "telnet" in the line below on this page to select the whole line:
telnet imap.gmail.com 993
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You should almost instantly get three lines of output below what you entered, the last of which is this:
Escape character is '^]'.
If there's no output within ten seconds, consider that a failure. If you get something different from the above, please post it in a reply. You can then quit Terminal.

UPDATING BUG WITH OS 10.5.4

Updating the Suites has become a big mess. I wasted more than a whole day with Adobe and Apple escalated tech support.
It is a known problem at Apple, at least, and by now, also must be known to Adobe.
There is a bug in the updating of Illustrator and Version Cue, and possibly other parts of the Suites, that cannot be fixed at the moment. Either Adobe or Apple will have to address it, according to Apple Escalated tech Support. At the moment, it remains to be seen (found out) if the problem lies with Adobe or with Apple.
What happens is that installation of the original Suite from discs goes well. But the updates stop at some point past middle, usually with messages that an application (usually not specified) cannot accept the updator and should be reinstalled and tried again. Those applications are, on my Intel Mac at least, Illustrator and Version Cue. There is no solution with OS 10.5.4.
In my case, which seems usual, version Cue was, in fact, updated and was a wrong message. But Illustrator cannot be updated. Period!
Also, to begin with, before any new re-installing or re-updating, my PS and Bridge Help files could suddenly no longer be accessed, after updating Leopard to 10.5.4. Probably no Suite Applications' help files could be accessed. That is what started this off with me, and Apple had had a similar case, just before I called, as well as the updating problem.
The truly messy, horrendous fix for this, recommended by Apple as the only solution for those who need Illustrator, is to:
1) reinstall the whole original, not updated Leopard (OS 10.5) from the original disc, doing an archive and install.
2) Then install the Suite, followed be doing all Adobe updates, bringing all Suite aps to their current status.
3) Then, and onll then, update your OS Leopard, probably only to version 10.5.3, which seems to have been okay. But you can update leopard to 10.5.4 if you want, but you may get the Help menu problem. Safest is to update Leopard only to 10.5.3 for now.
The escalated technician at Apple thought that soon there would be updates from either Apple or Adobe, or both, that will address this issue.
I am not holding my breath.
Mark B Anstendig

So, there is another problem with something else???
For me, it is no problem, now that I know it is only Illustrator in my mess: That is because I never use Illustrator. I was just updating because i got the general Suite message to do so. However, someone around here may want to use Illustrator or show me something in it.
But if you use Illustrator, you seem to be cooked, if server stuff won't work right with 10.5.3.
This is the kind of stuff i really resent.
Sorry for the bad news.
The technician did say it was my choice how far I would update Leopard after updating Illustrator. The problem is that, with 10.5.4, one risks the loss of the Help menus, unless something else other than the 10.5.4 update caused that failure in my computer.
Thanks for the added annoyance info.

Essential event viewer bugs with "Forwarded Events" log in Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7

To my general experience, Windows event viewer is one of the most problematic, faulty management tools in the case of extensive use of its more sophisticated capabilities. The sole description as well as reproduction of some entangled failures would require
remarkable effort.
With the "Forwarded Events" log however, the situation becomes particularly worse in that even simple functionality fails and workarounds are difficult to find. That’s what I’ll describe here in order to share my experience with interested users.
For precision: I’ve extensively used event viewer on a German Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (Windows SBS 2011 Standard SP1). The bugs I found on that system, I could reproduce on a German Windows 7 Professional 64-Bit SP1, too.
Problem 1: Failure of even simple event filtering
To reproduce this problem, execute these steps on a test machine with any of the two OS mentioned above:
(i) To prepare log contents, do either of the following:
(a) populate some events to your local "Forwarded Events" log (most simply by subscribing events from other logs of the same machine; stop subscription if you have collected some events)
Or
(b) copy a non-empty log file "ForwardedEvents.evtx" from another machine (with any of the two OS mentioned above) to your test machine and open the file in event viewer.
(ii) Navigate to your "Forwarded Events" test log and open the filtering dialog. In the "Includes/Excludes Event IDs" field, type: 1-9000. Click OK.
(iii) Look at the results pane: Surprise, 0 Events! Do you really have no event IDs between 1 and 9000 in your test log?
(iv) Another example, if you have forwarded security events in your test log: Clear filter, if any previous filter is in place. Open the filtering dialog. In "Keywords" sub-dialog, choose "Audit Success". Click OK.
(v) Look at the results pane: Surprise, 0 Events! Do you really have no successful security monitoring events in your test log?
I’ll finish here. If you have a rich variety of events in your test log available, let your imagination run wild to test around. Finally include some simple manually created or modified XPath filters on the XML tab of the filtering dialog. I promise, you’ll
find a lot of additional strange results.
Problem 2: Cannot save manually selected events to .evtx file
Navigate to your "Forwarded Events" test log. In the results pane, select one or more events by highlighting them by mouse clicks. In context menu, choose "Save selected events". In the "save as" dialog, choose file type *.evtx
and save your file. Open the newly created file in event viewer. Result: Surprise, no events inside the new file!
Have more fun with forwarded events

Did you mean that right click Forwarded Event and select "Filter Current Log..."? Since I can filter correct event vai the "Filter Current Log..." in my Lab environment.
Hi Justin,
yes, I mean "Filter Current Log ... " (in my German systems: "Aktuelles Protokoll filtern ... ").
What do you mean with "my Lab environment" exactly?
In the meantime, I performed additional tests. I copied the "ForwardedEvents.evtx" test file from Server 2008 R2 resp. Windows 7 to
(i) German Windows 8 Pro 64-Bit RTM
(ii) German Windows 8.1 Pro 64-Bit, up-to-date
in order to view and filter the file there.
Results: Same event viewer problem on Windows 8 RTM, but correct behavior on Windows 8.1!
Best regards, Helmut
