Installing Lync on XP SP3 machine.

I am trying to install Lync on an XP SP3 machine and I keep getting an error that XP is not supported.  I see several posts that indicated that XP SP3 is supported.  Is it supported and if it is how do I install it?  Thanks

Which Lync client? If you are referring to Lync 2010 then, yes the client is supported on Windows XP SP3
The Lync 2013 client isn't supported on Windows XP.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg412781(v=ocs.14).aspx
What is the specific error that you are getting? Make sure you have the correct installation binaries (i.e if you are running Windows 32-bit you have Lync 2010 32-bit client
or if you are using Windows x64 you should be able to use either) and that it matches the architecture of Office you have installed. (i.e if you have 32-bit office you need to install 32-bit Lync)

  • Install software for Deskjet 2540 will not load on Windows XP Home edition SP3 machine

    I have successfully connected a new Deskjet 2540 printer to a Windows 7 machine, and IPAD Air, and an XP Pro laptop.
    I cannot get the install software to load on and XP Home edition SP3 machine. I have tried all of the HP remedies that I can find, over  period of two days, but the installation fails every time with the message "Installation failed. The software required for your printer could not be installed".
    What can be done?  

    Hi,
    Thanks  for  your second installment of help suggestions.
    I started check disk as you proposed and it ran happily for some hours with evidence of progress. However eventually I found the computer stopped with a number of suggestions for restarting. I tried all of these and some others, but got no further than the first Windows picture. At this point the machine restarts, and goes through the same process. 
    The printer problem, as you can see has unfortunately become secondary to trying to recover the system.
    What I propose is to  try to read the disc in question on another computer, and extract the important data files to a safe place. Then to return the disc to its own machine and use the recovery CD, to try to get the machine to recover with the minimum of loss. If this succeeds, I might even find that the printer software then loads without problem. There is a big IF there, and I won't hold my breath.
    None of this relates to the printer problem, and fortunately i have three other devices running which are happily connected to the printer.
    I just wnted to explain why there will be no further feedback for a while. I will take my time with the recovery process.
    Thanks for all of your help. I have just been unlucky.
    Regards

  • Successfully installed Lync 2013 via Click-to-Run, but getting "Choose your product" prompt

    After installing Lync 2013 client using method
    Click-to-Run "Deploy Office 365 ProPlus from an on-premises location",downloaded Office source is on local hard drive with the
    "config.xml" shown below. 
    I'm getting "Choose your Product" prompt after signing-in.  We have Office 365 Enterprise E3 plan and we just wanted to upgrade Lync 2010 to Lync 2013 (not the Basic).
     <Configuration>

    Though Lync will continue to work when you close the window.  I need to deploy the full 2013 client to several
    machines locally.
     Thanks.

    Hello,
    Looks like you‘ve tried a hybrid deployment with Lync 2010 and 2013, right? This might be the reason why Lync 2013 keep prompting to choose your product. Lync 2013 will automatically identify the products that it found for your account which you used to
    login Lync 2013.
    So, please try to remove any earlier version (Better to remove all Office 2010 suite) on your computer and try a fresh installation again. Let’s see the "Choose your product" prompt would appear again.

  • Installing CE 7.1 SP3 on Vista

    I'm trying to install CE 7.1 SP3 on my laptop with Vista and I get an error message at the beginning of the install saying 'the subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Automatic LiveUpdate Scheduler does not exist on the 'localhost' host' which of course the registry key does exist.  Has anyone tried to hack through a Vista installation of CE.
    I know Vista is not supported in the PAM, and I have installed CE into a XP virtual machine running on my Vista laptop but I was just wondering if anyone else out ther has managed to get it to install on Vista.  I have 3gb memory on my laptop and VMWAre plus the XP virtual machine are using up 600mb of memory that I could use for CE if I could get it to run native on Vista. - thanks

    Hi,
    There is two flavors of CE, server and developer workplace.
    You can easily install a developer workplace on XP with maxDB.
    You can also install the developer workplace on WS 2003 with SqlServer, the pre-requisite analysis message is not blocking and you can continue your installation. Your CE will work perfectly well.
    The last possibility is to install the Server version of CE on WS 2003. You will not have the pre-requisite analysis message.
    Regards, Gilles.

  • Uninstall Lync 2010 client, Install Lync 2013 using Group Policy/VB/MS Customisation Tool

    Hi, I am using Group Policy/vb/Lync customization tools to deploy 2013 and remove 2010. The machines have Office 2010. The vb script is as below:
    Dim objShell 'As Object
    Dim objFSO 'As FileSystemObject
    '-- SET OBJECTS
    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    strComputerName = objShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%COMPUTERNAME%")
    Dim WshNetwork : Set WshNetwork = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
    objShell.Run """\\xxxxxxxxx - Do not Remove\Lync Install 2013 2010\Lync 2013 Outlook 2010\setup.exe"""
    I have amended the OCT with relevant settings, Lync 2013 installs but Lync 2010 does not uninstall. Here is how i have it set:
    In the Office Customization Tool - Set-up - Add Installation and Run Programs,
    In target - pointing to the Lync2010 exe file (on above share)
    In Arguments - /silent /uninstall
    Is this correct?
    Also, i would have thought that, Remove Previous Installations, it would have an option to remove Lync2010?
    Anyway..pulling my hair out here!
    Hope you can help.

  • Adobe Reader X 10.1 Install Failing on XP SP3 and Windows 7 (64 bit)

    After using the Customization Wizard 10 to create an .mst and executing the install via SCCM 2007 which I have done many times before, I am getting the following error on both the XP SP3 and Windows 7 (64 bit) machines in the Application Event Log:
    Product: Adobe Reader X (10.1.0) -- Error 2229.Database: . Could not load table 'ServiceInstall' in SQL query: SELECT `Name`,`DisplayName`,`ServiceType`,`StartType`,`ErrorControl`,`LoadOrderGroup`,`Dependenc ies`,`StartName`,`Password`,`ComponentId`,`Directory_`,`FileName`,`Arguments`,`Description ` FROM `ServiceInstall`, `Component`, `File` WHERE `ServiceInstall`.`Component_` = `Component`.`Component` AND (`Component`.`KeyPath` = `File`.`File`) AND (`Action` = 1 OR `Action` = 2).
    I used the following .msi to create the.mst:
    AdbeRdr1010_en_US.msi
    Does anyone know where to go from here?
    Thanks, Sandy

    I have found another possible bug affecting network printing with 10.1.2 in Protected Mode on XP SP3 machines that has not been previously documented:
    A number of users in one office were not able to print with 10.1.2 in Protected Mode (even with the printing hotfix/patch previously released) to their default printer; however they were able to print fine with 10.0.1 in Protected Mode OR by disabling Protected Mode in 10.1.2.  They could print to Microsoft XPS Document Writer, however.
    The cause was determined to be an issue with capitilization of the printer name in the registry!  10.1.2 in Protected Mode seems to be sensitive to this for some strange reason, though other apps don't care.
    Check the following keys and ensure the capitalization of any references to name of your printer (or UNC path of the printer share) is consistent:
    HKCU\Printers\Connections
    HKCU\Printers\Settings
    HKCU\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\windows\Device
    In our case, the reference to the name of the default printer was in lowercase, while the printer path recorded under settings was in UPPERCASE.   Changing this to match immediately fixed the problem.

  • Error Installating Lync Client 2013 Basic 32-bit

    Hi,
    We're implementing Lync in our office and have already deployed a server and working with a few pilot users.
    one of the users, I've tried installing Lync Basic Client (32bit), always gives an error.
    During installation, it would stop in the middle and would say that it would need to restart. We're already restarted twice and yet same error occurs.
    The desktop is a Windows 8 machine with Office 2010 installed.
    Any help?
    Regards
    Eisen

    What is the error did you get?
    On Windows 8 computer, I installed Office 2010 and Lync Basic client (32 bit).
    I didn’t have the same problem.
    Please try to uninstall Office 2010 first and install Lync Basic client.

  • How to install iPlanet & NAS on same machine

    Hi,
    We have successfully installed iPlanet 6.0 SP3 on solaris in a webless
    mode. But both Webserver and App. server are running in the same
    machine. Now we have a requirement, that one other group wants to share
    the same machine, wherein they want to install NAS 4.0 on the same
    machine.
    Is it possible to install both App. server on the machine, while sharing
    the webserver.
    I Would appreciate if any one can say, if this is doable and how.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Veera

    You can do that if you put iAS and NAS on two different web server
    instances (http daemons). However, you might not get support on it so
    you better check with iplanet support before you put something like this
    into production. For development environments it should not be a
    problem.

    Regards
    Raghavendar

    Hi Raghavendar,
    Generally, when you install Lync 2013 in the computer with Office 2010, a Lync Meeting Add-in will be installed and enabled in Outlook 2010. Please follow these steps to check it:
    1. In Outlook, click the File tab, click Options, and then click
    Add-Ins.
    2. Please take one of the following actions:
    If the add-in is in the Inactive Application Add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    COM Add-ins, and then click Go.
    b. Click to select the check box next to the add-in, and then click OK.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should be available when you create a new calendar item.
    If the add-in is in the Disabled Application add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    Disabled Items, and then click Go.
    b. Select the add-in, and then click Enable.
    c. Restart Outlook, and then verify that the add-in is displayed in the
    Add-ins dialog box.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should now be available when you create a new calendar item.
    3. In Event Viewer, view the Application log to see whether an error was logged for Outlook, for Lync 2013, the Lync Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office 2013.
    Thanks,

  • I am having sporadic issues after new hard drive install and recovery using Time Machine. The same sluggish response, start up screen pixelating...If I reinstall Lion will it wipe out other applications? My HD was formatted and partitioned correctly, I ha

    I am having sporadic issues after new hard drive install and recovery using Time Machine. The same sluggish response, start up screen pixelating...If I reinstall Lion will it wipe out other applications? My HD was formatted and partitioned correctly, I have a late 2009 iMac.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Can't install itunes on windows 7 machine. I keep getting A message stating that I don't meet min. requirements, but the machine has more than enough. What do I need to do to correct this?

    Can't install itunes on windows 7 machine. I keep getting A message stating that I don't meet min. requirements, but the machine has more than enough. What do I need to do to correct this?

    Are you trying to install the 32-bit version on a 64-bit machine, or vice versa?
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

    For what the Apple Store's charge you can buy almost buy a new computer.
    Just for giggles I brought my old laptop in for a drive upgrade and asked, they wanted $600 for a drive that only cost $120 at the time and it was a slow 5,400 RPM drive. The new Mac's of a similar make were going for $1000.
    I did the drive replacement myself, got a faster drive of better quality for $300 instead.
    Then another time I asked for a RAM upgrade from 4GB to 8GB, they wanted to charge $400 + $35 for the labor.
    The same RAM is on Crucial.com for $90 and all I need is a 00 micro phillips screwdriver.
    So you see what's going on here.
    I think what you should do, if your out of warranty/AppleCare, is to call up the local PC tech guy who also does Mac's and have them fix you right up.
    They can offer more personalized care which you need. Clone your old drive to the new and everything.
    With Apple they are overworked at the Genius Bar and just place roadblocks so you buy a new machine instead.
    For instance, all new iMac's now have proprietary drive software installed on the hard drives for heat monitoring. So now the only choice a user has is to bring their iMac into a Apple Store for a very expensive drive upgrade, which a person then decides the money is better spent buying a new machine.
