Impossible to update a recommended and an optional update with vista basic

Lenovo T61, vista home basic 32bits.
Intel Wireless Lan (11abgn, abg, bg) for Vista (recommended update)
Multimedia Center for Think Offerings for Microsoft Windows Vista (optional update)
I try many time to install these updates: they are downloaded, the installation process seems to normaly happen, but they still appears in the Thinkvantage System Update.

Try a reset to get out of page.
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

Can anyone recommend and mouse to use with Aperture?

Hi ,
I have been using the Apple Mighty mouse with my iMac and am looking for a replacement. I have a lot of trouble using the right click on the mouse and am fed-up with it.
I want something bluetooth that will not take up one of my USB ports. I have set the third button to expose all windows as I frequently switch between applications and I like this function with the big screen I have.
Aperture and Photoshop are my main applications so I’m looking for something that is going integrate with those well. I want to be able to zoom and scroll around pictures with ease.
Does anyone have any recommendations?

I am using a Logitech VX Revolution, actually a wireless notebook mouse but I have small hands, so prefer the smaller size over a regular size.
Apart from the size (which is an individual feature and there is a normal sized version called MX Revolution) it should fit most of your needs. It has six buttons a four way scroll function and a zoom slider. Using the Steermouse 3rd party mouse driver (Logitech's one is known to cause problems) you can individually set all buttons and functions of the mouse systemwide and for specific applications. Speed and accuracy is more than sufficient for my needs.
Only thing is that it uses a proprietary wireless dongle, so you still lose one of your USB ports.
Microsoft also produces good mice (imho their hardware is a lot better than their software , even some with real BT support (they still come with a dongle but you don't have to use it). However, from what I've heard, sometimes it can be a little bit tricky to get them to work with Mac OS X.

WRT610N disconnects and does not work with Vista or media center extenders like the DMA2200

Linksys and all other router manufacturers advertise the greatness of the wireless 5ghz band (especially with 802.11n), but I’m beginning to have my doubts. It is true that the 5Ghz band is hardly being used so you'll have virtually no one to compete with. However, the 5Ghz distance in no way compares to 2.4Ghz, and as a matter of fact, I find it to be quite terrible. At approximately 20 feet away, both my Linksys DMA2200 and HP notebook barely get 1 bar using the 5Ghz N band with my WRT610N router. In comparison, while using my 2.4Ghz WRT54g router, I get 5 full bars at that range, and at least 2 bars from anywhere else in my house.
I have all Linksys equipment in my house as I have been impressed with all of their 2.4Ghz in the past. However, I’ve recently upgraded everything to dual-band N equipment and found numerous flaws in each of the new devices, plus none of them really even play well together. My setup is: Linksys 610n router, DMA2200 media center extender, and a WUSB600N Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Network Adapter for my laptop – all of which are currently using the most up-to-date firmware. Other devices include a WRE54G extender and Nintendo Wii.
Problem #1) The LELA software with the new N devices doesn't even recognize that my DMA2200 is a media center extender. Using LELA, I should be able to select my media extender and allocate more bandwidth for streaming media. However, since my extender only shows up as an “unknown network device” those options are greyed out. I tried to manually change the device to a media center, but still no go. I suppose you can manually allocate bandwidth in the router setup somewhere, but considering these are all Linksys products, it’s absolutely ridiculous that an option specifically incorporated in the LELA software for a Linksys Media Extender does not work!!!
Problem #2) If you are only using one system with the router, the router might actually work as intended. For most of us though there are going to be at least 2 or more systems connected to the router (wired, wireless, or a combination of the two) such as a PS3, Wii, laptop, PC, media extender, Xbox, etc. If that’s the case, you’re probably screwed because you WILL experience frequent dropouts… ESPECIALLY if just one those clients is a VISTA machine. Check the Linksys forums and you will find that this seems to be a problem with all of the new Linksys routers (610N, 310N, and 110).
Here is a Microsoft article that explains the issue
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233/en-us
Problem #3) Because of problem #2 I will never be able to get rid of the dropouts since my network is using one of Linksys’s media center extenders. The DMA2200 is essentially a VISTA PC to some extent and accepts DHCP requests the same as a VISTA PC. Since it is not really a PC though, there is no registry modification that can be done to alleviate the VISTA problem (not that the registry mod really works anyways). So as long as I try to use my DMA2200 wirelessly with my WRT610N router, the frequent dropouts will occur and there’s nothing I can do about it. This is REALLY TERRIBLE since the DMA2200 is specifically designed to be used with the WRT610N router in order to take advantage of the 5Ghz band and wireless N transfer rates. You absolutely need 5Ghz wireless N to efficiently stream HDTV WIRELESSLY, but if you lose your connection every 10 minutes, it is impossible to watch any type of streaming media.
Problem #4) As mentioned already, when the “N” 5Ghz range is working on the WRT510N router, the distance sucks compared to standard 2.4Ghz G, N or mixed mode networks. You can try to make it better by strictly using N products, disabling the 2.4ghz band all-to-gether, and using the wider 40mhz frequency, but it doesn’t really help. The higher 5Ghz band is a more concentrated signal and therefore simply does not reach as far as the lower 2.4ghz band. I wonder why all of these new products state that the 5Ghz range will increase your distance, when in fact it actually makes it worse?
So… basically, this router does nothing that it claims too and is basically rendered useless on any network with a VISTA machine. This has not been addressed by any Linksys firmware updates or VISTA software updates so there is no reason to even consider using this router if you you’re using VISTA or some type of VISTA Media Center Extender such as the Linksys DMA2200.
Although, I’ve always sworn by Linksys in the past, the amount of wasted time, frustration, and horrible support has really changed my view about them. I’ve reverted back to my old trustworthy WRT54g router and had to run cable through my house so that I wouldn’t have to box my DMA2200 extender up and let it collect dust in the attic. It’s really disappointing that I spent all this money to buy this equipment specifically because they’re supposed to work together, but in fact they don’t. Plus what’s the point of having top notch wireless equipment if you have to run cables in order for them to work?

I have fixed all the IP adresses to avoid the DHCP problem but I still have problems.
I have sereval scenarioes:
1. MC < 1Gb wire > WRT610N < 5.0n WIFI > MX
I can see HDTV on this one but it disconnects
2. MC < 1Gb wire > WRT610N < 2.4b/g WIFI > MX
No HDTV and disconnections
3. MC < 2.4b/g WIFI > WRT610N < 2.4b/g WIFI > MX
No HDTV but no disconnections - but very slow and streaming like youtube
4. MC < 100Mb wire > WRT610N < 2.4b/g WIFI > MX
No HDTV but nice picture - testing for disconnections right now - 30+ min.
Result:
This test was very good. Stabil streaming, no disconnects for an hour. Won't support HDTV but the rest seem to work fine.
5. MC < 100Mb wire > WRT610N < 5.0n WIFI > MX
Not tested yet - looking forward to this - might bring me HDTV.
Result:
This gives HDTV but there is a problem with stability on the streaming but very difficult to see on the picture. Testing for disconnects - now tested for 30 min. - no disconnects.
This looks really promissing.
I am pretty sure that the WRT610N have a problem in the switching part of the router specially when it has to switch from 1G to WIFI. I bought the WRT610N to get HDTV on WIFI and Cisco markets the DMA and WRT610N as a perfect match. But it definately have problems - i still do not understand their silence about this.
I will come back with the last results when I have them

Ipod touch and itunes not working with vista?

I bought a 32gb ipod touch(2nd gen) today and so far it's been nothing but a massive headache for hours. I've had an ipod video(30gb) for three years now and it's always been perfect, hasn't give me an ounce of trouble.
I get home, checked that I had the current itunes version, and then plugged in my ipod touch. I immediately got an itunes error saying that the apple mobile support device was out of date, and I had to re-install itunes. I did that but it still didn't work, it wouldn't recognize my ipod touch. I deleted all my itunes and apple folders and restarted(and uninstalled). Now my ipod still won't recognize when i plug it in on my desktop, it gives me an intunes error saying something like " your ipod touch cannot work because you dont have the 64bit version blah blah ". Which is ridiculous because I'm on windows vista 64bit, and the version of itunes I got was the 64 bit, i checked it three times and even re-downloaded/installed it.
I tried my second desktop which is on windows XP and it wouldn't recognize my ipod touch either. Then finally I took out my laptop which is windows XP, and plugged in my ipod touch. My ipod touch works fine on my laptop, but not on my other two desktops.
I need for it to work on my main desktop(the one with vista) because it has all my music.
So any ideas as to why this is happening? and how to fix it.

Hi,
What is the name of the iTunes installer file you used? Try downloading and installing the iTunes again from the iTunes64Setup.exe file located here: http://support.apple.com/downloads/iTunes8_1_1_for_Windows__64_bit
If the issue persists, verify the usbaapl64.sys driver is being used by following the steps under *Verify iPhone Driver/Service Installation* in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1495
If the issue is not resolved after installing iTunes from the iTunes64Setup.exe file and the correct driver is being used, reconfigure or disable the security software on the PC and reinstall iTunes.

BB Desktop won't update with VISTA

Evil, evil Vista won't let me update my desktop software. Any ideas??

Hi and Welcome to the forums!
Could you perhaps provide us with a little bit more detail? Things like, perhaps, your precise version of Vista. And your precise version of DTM. And what, exactly, happens when you make the attempt? Oh, and how exactly you are making the attempt? From what you've provided, there are dozens of possible paths to follow...maybe hundreds...
Thanks.

Not able to install live update with vista 64bit

I got a MSI P45 NEO-F board with Intel 2 duo E8400 processor, and VISTA 64bit.
I'm not able to make the live update work, the CD-ROM following the card does support vista, but not the 64bit version. After having tried updating everything else to make my computer stop crashing when playing Age of Conan, I would like to see if an update of the bios will help. I would rather use the MSI updater than do it my self, as I don't want to take the extra risk.
I've checked core temperature, RAM temperature, memory leak seems not to be the issue either, and I got the last driver for my videocard (v8.9 for Radeon HD 4870 512MB). At any given time the sound loops, picture may freeze and pixel or just go to brown stripes, and I then need to force a reboot. Some times the system has BSODed by itself as well.
Current BIOS is v1.1, I think there is a v1.5 now.
Is there a live update supporting vista64? Or a receipt for dummies how to do it manually? The AMI BIOS Flash procedure following one of the BIOS-versions that I *think* I can use doesn't include an explanation for vista.

Firefox 7.0.1 works well with Adobe Reader 9.4 and XP, but not with Vista. Fix?

I run Firefox 7.0.1 at work with XP and the Adobe Reader 9.4 plug-in works fine. At home I run Vista and the Adobe Reader buttons don't work. I can't use the search pane or the up and down buttons to page through. Scrolling works though.

*** SOME GOOD NEWS HERE ! ***
Acrobat is soon going to solve this problem in the upcoming update.
However, as per new FF add on policy, the Create PDF add-on will be disbaled by default. The user would have to manually enable the plugin.
So, please wait for the next update from Acrobat.

What is wrong with iTunes 9.1 64 bit update with Vista???

iTunes updated to 9.1 last night - and I continued to get error messages, as the install was not complete (and itunes was looking for a file that it apparently couldn't find).
I tried again today - same problem. This is NOT the same problem that is reported in the stickied thread. iTunes will not even install completely!!!
What the heck!?

I think the real root of this issue is the AppleMobileDeviceSerivce.exe. It sits idle at 3,746K on my memory usage with out my Ipod Touch connected, when I try to perform a sync, the memory usage goes well over 600K and continues to climb until my system freezes and I have to do either a soft or hard restart.
My computers become completely unresponsive. My Ipod touch was able to connect without issue, and had done so many times before the latest ITunes update. Is there a planned fix for this issue? So I dont think that Bonjour is the real issue, however, if it will allow my Ipod to be able to reconnect to my laptop with out issues, then I shall give that a try.

Robohelp update with Vista support?

Hi
Does anyone know if there will be an update to Robohelp that
will allow us to generate Microsoft Vista-style help centres?
My company are moving towards developing Vista-style GUIs and
the Help is going to look too different. (I wanted a word that was
the opposite of integrated, but I don't think 'disintegrated' is
what I mean!)
Cheers, Emma.

Colum and Rick
Thanks for your comments.
The question I was asking was more along the lines of: Will
the interface of help files be different to match a vista gui, as
Colum said.
If you look at the help for Office 2007, the style of it is
different mainly in that it no longer seems to use frames (although
I personally like the WebHelp frames). I assume from what Rick said
then that whatever Microsoft used to produce this help they aren't
yet releasing so we can all do it...
I will wait with anticipation for the all new Robohelp
then... I will certainly have a go at creating a skin to match the
Vista colour scheme in the meantime - if anyone else develops a
good Vista-like skin, please share!
Cheers, Emma.

MOVED: K9N-F with X2 4400+ : bios update with Vista

This topic has been moved to BIOS.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=105918.0

OK let's take these one at a time. Always a good idea.
1 AGP lock is in the Cell Menu. It is called AGP Frequency. ^^ is the normal lock for NVidia based Vid cards. 77 or 66 can both be tried for ATi cards. Some folks have their ATi cards like set to sync with CPU better and that is unlocked. You will have to test that one with your particular ATi card. I would start with 66 and go from there.
2 - This is one that you have to test for. You can test this simply by benchmarking each setting and see where the sweetspot for your card is. Mine is set to 128 and I get my best benchmarks at that setting.
3 - Newer cards and notably the NVidia cards like mine default to a much higher number. The higher the latency the more you will be stuttering under heavy gaming and 3D rendering. 64 is optimum so leave that one be.
4 - 1T is much better than 2T. However not all RAM will run at 1T so you need to test this. Let's not get to other RAM timings just yet. Test this one with SiSoft Sandra running the memory Bandwidth test. A higher number is better.
OK now for some basics. Start with your Hypertransport (HT Frequency in the cell menu in Bios) set to 800Mhz. This will allow you to go beyond stock settings on your CPU Reference clock (CPU FSB Frequency in the Cell Menu in Bios).
Raise the FSB in the cell menu just a little at a time. Usually 5Mhz. and test with each step you make. You should easily hit 220 but you may stop or start to lock up at any steps much higher than that.
Before we go further see how much of this you can accomplish. If the machine acts funny or locks, BSOD, or anything out of the ordinary then stop and go back to previous settings. You may have to do a Bios reset in order to reenter Bios again.

Iphone 4s - fully working after ios7 update, but since ios7.0.2 update wifi is locked out. Tried all of apples recommendations and still no joy. Is there anyway around it?

Iphone was working great, even after ios 7 update. However, since ios 7.0.2, the wifi has greyed out and wont work. I have done all the apple recommendations and even reset phone with apple tech help, but still no joy - is apple going to do another update to fix this problem???

Sounds like you have a battry issue but don't want to believe it.
If a car was running fine on one tank of gas, then you filled it up with another tank of gas and it began to run funny, one might suspect that tank of gas. But let's just say coincidence blew a valve-- would you think the new tank of gas was the culprit?
BUT WAIT!! It just might have been! The gas could have been of higher octane and put more more strain on the valves; you know, like going from 87 octane (OS6) to 93 octane (OS7) and showing you the engine was on the edge of compromise.
Sometimes you have to go with common sense. If everything else is ruled out, it must be the battery. And if it runs fine one moment in OS6 but immediately ***** in OS7, I'd believe my battery was suspect-- though comfy-- in OS6 but the OS7 showed its true power.
Moreover, if you had the answer-- or didn't want to believe someone's more competent advice-- why did you even call? You've already shown that you don't know much when you asked if you could go backwards after setting up the new OS as a new phone.
Additonally, if you're such the know-it-all, but yourself the $29 battery and put it in yourself. It's a piece of cake.

i buy a macbook air with my friend and i changed the apple id also.at first i can update the application but now its impossible to update the application.when i clock to update it shows the id of my fren andsomebody do you have idea to solve this problem.

The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
1. You don't own another Mac.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
2. You do own another Mac.
If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.

Thanks, Peter.
The "link related" and "text related" crashes were what I interpretted here, too, though I'm at a loss on how to proceed given that this is a fresh system and applications. This is happening with multiple InDesign projects in a design office environment where many others work on the same files and none of the other computers are having problems with these files. I've removed the same files listed (thank you for those) before and did so effectively with creating the new user account to test with, but it had no effect. I just tried again though, as these files could easily have becone corrupt again if they were being written to when InDesign crashed. Will let you know if that makes any difference. I've also gone through and completely cleaned out the fonts again and once more cleared the font caches. If need be I'll reboot this system into safe mode and try that way.
Best,
Mike
