I have a windows XP computer and a windows Vista computer...

I have a windows XP computer and a windows Vista computer that are dropping the wireless connections every so often.  They both stay connected for a period of time, and then they drop the connection.  I need help with this problem as soon as possible.

It's important to know more about it...
Does these computers worked together without problems before?
How they are configured?
If you connect both using cable the problem occurs?

    I have a Windows Vista computer.  When I am in iTunes store and try to purchase music I get the error 42408

    Although you're getting a different error message, I'd try the following document with that one:

  • I have a windows vista pc and want to use migration assistant to copy files over. From what I understand, it will copy over my user profile and settings as well. Is there anyway to just copy files?

    Hey everyone, I just bought a new macbook pro 13-inch (late 2011 model) and I want to use migration assistant to copy over my photos, iTunes library, documents, etc. I know this can be done wirelessly or by connecting the two computers by Ethernet cable (windows vista pc --> macbook pro). Which is faster?
    I also have heard that using migration assistant copies over the user file as well and makes it the new one on the mac. I would only like to copy over files, not user settings. How do I do this?
    Thanks!
    P.S. I'm assuming that when my iTunes library is copied, the mp3 files are copied too. Could someone please confirm this?

  • On Tiger on iMac & Also Have a Windows Vista Machine & AT&T (SBC) DSL

    Does it makes sense for us to get Time Capsule (yet)?
    Have iMac G5 w/Tiger - do you have to back up manually & with usb?
    Ditto w/a an HP Windows Vista laptop?
    Also how does this work as wireless network?
    Currently have DSl from AT&T (formerly SBC) and we have a 2 Wire router & wireless network set-up already.
    We are also planning to get AT&T Uverse TV inDecember & 2Wire router wll be replaced by Uverse router.
    Thanks.

    Does it makes sense for us to get Time Capsule (yet)?
    Maybe, just not yet, but that would really depend on what you would like the Time Capsule (TC) to do for you. The TC was primarily designed to be that target network drive for Time Machine backups which, as you know, is not available for either Tiger or Windows. That you mean you would have to use another vendor's product that provides network backups.
    If you will not be migrating to Leopard, then a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device may serve your requirements better than the TC.
    Have iMac G5 w/Tiger - do you have to back up manually & with usb?
    You certainly will not be able to take advantage of Leopard's Time Machine for automatic backups, but several vendors' products provide for both manual or automated backups.
    In addition to a NAS device, you also have the option to directly connect either an external USB or Firewire drive to your iMac for file storage/backups.
    Ditto w/a an HP Windows Vista laptop?
    Yes, as for the iMac, basically the same for the HP laptop.
    Also how does this work as wireless network?
    The TC is fundamentally the same as the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) with a built-in hard drive. The AEBSn is a wireless router.
    Currently have DSl from AT&T (formerly SBC) and we have a 2 Wire router & wireless network set-up already.
    You would have at least two options adding the TC to your existing wireless network:
    o Connect the TC directly to the existing wireless router via Ethernet, and then, reconfigure the TC as a bridge to allow the wireless router to continue to provide both NAT & DHCP services for the entire network.
    o Reconfigure the TC to "join" the existing wireless network to share it's internal hard drive or external hard drive(s) and printer(s) connected to its USB port.

  • I have a Windows Vista desktop and an old XP laptop, both run Firefox perfectly. However, my Toshiba Satellite T135 laptop will not run ANY version of Firefox--constant "not responding" messages. Chrome and IE9 work perfectly. Help!!

    To mostly repeat my question, I am a longtime Firefox user on both an XP laptop and a Vista desktop. So here I get the most "capable" computer of all, a Toshiba Satellite T135 laptop, 64-bit Windows 7, 4G RAM...and it won't run Firefox at all! I have installed an uninstalled both Firefox 3, and just now, Firefox 4. No changes. When I open the software, it usually just locks up for a minute or so, and I finally get a "not responding" message at the top of the screen.
    Obviously there is something corrupt in the guts of my laptop. But both IE9 and Chrome work very well--Chrome is blazing fast. I still prefer Firefox because it works best with some particular software I use for work...but I have to go to one of my older computers to do it!
    ANY solutions out there? This seems like a very odd problem.
    Posting from the Firefox website...using Google Chrome!

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • I only have 16bit windows vista on my laptop. Can I use my iPad to download songs from iTunes Store and sync to my new iPod Nano?

    I have a 16bit vista laptop which is unreliable and I do not wish to use it to transfer songs to my new iPod Nano. Can I sync downloads from my Apple iPad instead?

    You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.
    Whichever method you use, you probably won't get a response until the 26th. If you absolutely must make a purchase before then, create a new Apple ID; you won't be able to transfer previous purchases or iTunes Store credit to it.

  • HT5622 How do I check what version of ICLOUD CONTROL PANEL I have on Windows VISTA HP?

    Apple support says when using a Windows computer with VISTA, to insure the ICLOUD CONTROL PANEL is 2.1.2 or earlier.  How do I check what control panel I have on my HP to insure we are in compliance?  (Am having sync problems with calendar.)
    Thanks.

  • My ipod classic ran out of battery, when I turned it back on all my songs were gone. How can I recover them on a windows vista computer? Also, the itunes on my vista does not have all my original songs. Please help

    My Ipod Classic died because it ran out of battery. Finally, today when I was able to plug it into my computer to
    charge it, all my music was gone. It did not show up on the Itunes nor was it present on my Ipod. Which freaked
    me out.  I dont know what to do because I do have Itunes but all the music I had on my Ipod was from my
    first computer, which I no longer have because it was stolen.  However, on my Itunes it says my Ipod
    has 14.27 GB used and 13.55 FREE. So I just want to know how to get my music back on to my Ipod
    and that it shows up in Itunes again. I have a Windows Vista so if anyone knows instructions it would
    be greatly appreciated!

  • HP LaserjetPro M277dw printer and windows vista driver installation issues

    I ust got the hot off the press HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277 which seems to be a miraculous machine.  Just one problem.  When trying to download and install the printer driver it goes through the whole process and then tells you the driver will not work with this operating system.  
    Hmmm.  It says on the HP website that this is the correct software for this machine.  I have been through at least 10 HP support people up to Level 3 support and hours of online work with HP people trying to install the software.  The word I get back is that it will not work with my machine.  So I am wondering if I have a Windows Vista 64 bit machine, and the software says it is for that machine, but it wont load, what machine will it work with?  The last person I worked with just told me I will need to get a new computer.  I thought I just bought a printer that would work with my computer, and now I am told i have to buy a new one?  
    Any ideas on how to get the software to load?  I have some functionality, such as wireless network printing that one technician was able to get to work, but no scanning.  Another technician changed all the permissions for installing various programming segments to "everyone" but that didnt work either.  He had it so messed up that the it would not print anymore wirelessly either.  I had to restore to an earlier date after that guy got off my computer so i could at least get some functionality back.  
    So, without the driver, I cannot scan to this computer, and i really dont know what other good things i am missing out on because I have never experienced the correct configuration......please help if you can.  I need to send the machine back within a certain time period, and I really do think it is the solution for my business, if I could get it to work......Thanks!
    PS Direct connection to computer and downloading software that way does't work either.....cannot use the printer directly connected.....

    Hi,
    Is it the following one ? If not, please download then try again:

  • Windows vista, sync and restore errors. I give up.

    I have had continuous problems with my 8gb ipod touch, 2nd gen. I just returned one which I had had for 4 months during which it worked, but then I could not get it to restore and now have a new one and have the same problem. When I first got the new one , it would not sync it had a number of errors such as;
    - Attempting to copy to the disk 'X' ipod failed. An error occurred while writing to the device.
    -The ipod 'X' iod cannot be synced an error occurred while writing to the device.
    -Required disk cannot be found.
    -Also something about Apple Mobile Device
    So I uninstalled itunes and all related programs and then reinstalled them.
    I managed to get a few songs on to the ipod but they were distorted and the album art became chequered.
    I then tried to restore it and have had more errors such as:
    -The 'ipod' ipod could not be restored, an unknown error occurred (6).
    -The 'ipod' ipod could not be restored, an unknown error occurred (14).
    I have done all the things specified such as:
    -Restarting the computer,
    -Reinstalling Itunes,
    -Using differnt USB ports on the computer,
    -Removing the firewall, Zone Alarm,
    -Removing everything from itunes.
    Is it due to an itunes update possibly around june, that I have started experiencing problems.
    Will I be able to fix it?
    Any help would be appreciated, otherwise I shall return it and not bother with an ipod again.
    Many Thanks

    I have exactly the same problem with my 8gb ipod touch 2nd gen and have tried everything you have with no success (see http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2531624&tstart=0)
    It's definitely due to the itunes 9.2 update in June. I get the same itunes restore and sync errors you have on Windows Vista and Windows 7. It only starts restoring and syncing properly on Windows XP. I've tried downgrading to an itunes version that worked for me on Vista before, but Apple have updated the ipod touch firmware so that its not supported anymore by the earlier versions of itunes.
    Apple phone support is a waste of time. They want to charge me £25 before they are interested in helping as they say my ipod is out of warranty - but its not the ipod that's broken, its the poorly written ITUNES, so why shouldn't I get free support for itunes even though my IPOD, which is perfectly fine, is out of warranty?!
    Truth is, now apple has your money, they don't care...

  • Firefox version 3.5.16 will not start under Windows Vista and Windows 7 32bit

    I have a Windows Vista computer that will not start any newer version of Firefox than 3.5.16. The process will run (as seen in the Task Manager) but do nothing.
    I have since updated Windows to version 7 and the problem persists.
    I have tried uninstalling Firefox and all Addons (flash-player, pdf-reader) and deleting all files (even user-specific ones).
    Firefox can't be started in Profilemanger or safe-mode either.
    Is there anything short of reinstalling windows I can try?

    Solved it!
    It was a dodgy version of Firebug (1.6.2) running, which would kill the disable/update process. It was killing something on the first run that would corrupt my Firefox.
    How I fixed it:
    * Download the latest Firefox
    * Install Firefox 4 (as Standard) in-place upgrade
    * Before finishing, un-tick the "Run Firefox Now" button
    * Hit Finish
    * Find Firefox in the Start Menu and hold Shift and click the executable (safe mode)
    * Leave everything disabled
    * You should now have a working Firefox!
    Remove/update your add-ons as needed. I only had to upgrade Firebug in safe mode to get it working.
    Odd how the check for updates completely broke this Firefox, wonder what was so bad about Firebug.
    Hope this helps at least one other person! The "Run in Safe Mode" option is so hard to discover now when your browser is broken!

  • Windows Vista and Windows 8

    I have a Windows Vista Full Installer disc and a Windows 7 Upgrade Disc. I am currently running a Mid-2012 MacBook Pro 13" with Mountain Lion, Boot Camp Version 5.
    Can I install Windows Vista through Boot Camp, then upgrade to Windows 7 or Windows 8 when it's released?
    Thanks.

    Vista is not supported with Mountain Lion. You could try installing Windows 7 over itself. Some have reported success doing this.

  • Difficulty connecting Mac Mini and Windows Vista laptop

    I have a Windows Vista laptop. I have been connecting to the Internet via a wireless DSL router. I just purchased a Mac Mini and want to hardwire the Mac Mini to the router and also create a home newtork where the Mac Mini can transfer files to and from the Vista laptop and vice versa.
    What is the best way to do this? Could you please provide detailed information as well? I don't have a lot of experience with computers or networking.
    Thank you!

    Hi Bruce!
    What you're wanting to do is very possible and is done often. However, please search Apple's website or Google first or search this forum for answers to your question. They've been asked and answered multiple times.
