Hi,
From what have I have read on this forum I suggest to ignore it. Plenty of people had issues with drivers as some components stopped working after the update. It's not worth it in case you are happy with the system as it is.

  • FONT BOOK Compatibility with Windows

    I've just transitioned over to Mac Pro. I was using a particular font in Windowsthat brings up an error in the Font Book. It is an Architect type font I use on all my publications. How can I resolve this please? I've attached a jpeg to give an idea of what I'm after...
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Edward,
    Thanks for your reply.
    We are testing the add-on on multiple system configurations. Please find the details below.
    1. Windows XP with SQL 2005 - Upgrader Common runs fine. However when we open SAP Business One after running the upgrader common the upgrade does not happen and SAP Business One displays an internal error.
    2. Windows Vista with SQL 2005 - The upgrader common crashes after we provide the login credentials for the SQL Server.
    following is the error logged in the windows event log:
    Faulting application Setup.exe_unknown, version 0.0.0.0, time stamp 0x459aaebf, faulting module Secur32.dll, version 6.0.6000.16386, time stamp 0x4549bdd2, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x000021f4, process id 0x864, application start time 0x01c754e9694d311f.

  • Does HP have updated software & drivers available & compatable with windows 10

    Up graded my HP Pavillion 17z f100 CTO energy star to windows 10 a few days back and not more than 2 hours later I was infected with crossbrowse & one other browser hijacker (something like infinity )along with a host of other bundled up malware and adware - Took several hours to un-install & clean up those Pernicious Kinits and I'm still not certain if a few of them aren't lurk'en in the creases - Niether MS Defender nor any of their various virus scans even detected the obvious malware so I pulled & ran a few malware links off the MS forums page - they did help but like I said I'm still a bit hinky about how thourough they were Then today I visited HP's support page to make sure I was runn'en the most current and appropriate software and drivers compatable with Windows 10 - yet when I went to up-date them I was not given the option to choose win10 as my OS only 8.1 so I opted to pass until I investigated further - I have 2 actually 3 questions for all my HP heroes out there who have been of such tremendous help in the past - 1 ) Does HP even have new software & driver updates available and designed for compatability with win10 and if so why do you suppose they were not available to me on the support site - woulda thought HP would have had them ready for the release - 2 ) Has anyone even heard of any current Malware removers that are effective with win 10 3 ) I fear that I may have pulled the trigger to quickly by installing win 10 before taking a few  temperture readings first - So honestly would you all advise that I revert back to 8.1 for a few months until the bugs are worked out of the new operating system  or is confidence in the rapid success of win10  high enough that it might warrant stick'en it out - I know alot of you have been runn'en the preview versions for some months now & I do trust your opinions and follow your advice - Once again I thank you for your time and consideration an shall look forward to your responses - Paintbrush -

    The only solution for the officejet 4315v is the in-OS driver in WIndows 7,  there is no full feature software availible for this printer in that OS.

  • Is adobe photoshop cs2 compatable with windows 8?

    Is adobe photoshop CS2 compatable with windows 8?

    I have removed and re-installed CS2 twice now and still get the same library application error.
    DO NOT INSTALL WINDOWS 8 ONTO YOUR COMPUTER IF YOU WANT TO KEEP CS2!
    Telling us to spend more money to upgrade our software to meet OS does not show trust to the users. CS2 should be able to work with new OS systems and if not users should be allowed to update their current program for free to be able to use it on the new OS.
    Thank you,

  • SQL Server Express compatibility with Windows 8.1 - Which version(s) are compatible?

    We have purchased a new computer that has Win 8.1 Pro. We are migrating an application from a Win 7 Pro machine we are currently successfully using (the vendor migrates it for us) and they have said that the application will require the installation of SQL
    Server 2008 Express (which we do have on our Win 7 machine).
    In looking at the requirements for SQL Server 2008 Express (on the download page for it), it does not mention it being compatible with Win 8.1  
    In addition, Installation Instructions  says that it requires:
     Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 SP1
     Windows Installer 4.5.
     Windows PowerShell 1.0
    I see that 3.5 is already listed as a program feature of Win8.1 and I've enabled it. Do I need to install SP1? I downloaded it, and launched it, and nothing happened.
    I also looked at the Windows Installer 4.5 download page, and it's not clear if that is compatible with 8.1. Do I need to download and install it?
    Power Shell 2.0 is already installed. I assume that will be backwards compatible with PowerShell 1.0; is that correct?
    I saw another question about SQL Server Express Compatibility with Win 8.1 (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/038ec00e-4fc1-41ba-9fdc-21c022aad67e/action?threadDisplayName=sql-server-express-compatibility-with-windows-81) and the response
    said that SQL Server Express 2012 will work, but the link contained in the answer led to a page for SQL Server Express 2014.  
    My vendor has told me that SQL SERver Express 2012 will be backwards compatible with their product. But they said that I would first have to install 2008 first. Is that correct for Win 8.1?
    So, the ultimate questions are:
    1. What is the link for Sql Server 2012 Express for Win 8.1? 
    2. Will the SQL Server 2012 Express download require prior install of the 2008 version
    3. What other component requirements are required for SQL Server 2012 Express, and how can I determine if they have already been installed. (This is a brand new computer with a clean Win8.1 Install).
    4. Finally, can we use the 2014 version of SQL Server Express for Win 8.1? If so, questions 1, 2 and 3 apply, too.
    Thanks for your help on this!! HIGH ANXIETY. 

    Hello,
    The following article provides which updates are required to make SQL Server versions compatible with Windows 8 or 8.1:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2681562/en-us
    1. You can use the product updates feature on SQL Server 2012 to make it compatible with Window 8.1. Apply SP1 as described on the following
    article:
    http://www.sqlcoffee.com/SQLServer2012_0008.htm
    2. No.
    3. Download and install .NET Framework 4.0 and enable .NET Framework 3.5. For more information:
    http://www.sqlcoffee.com/SQLServer2012_0017.htm
    4. Yes, you can use SQL Server 2014 with Windows 8.1. Please refer to the Support article provided above.
    Hope this helps.

  • Compatibility with Windows Mobile 5.0 ?

    Does anyone know if Flex apps would work on PocketPCs, ie.
    using Windows Mobile 5.0?
    I haven't purchased one yet, so I can't test.
    At this link, Adobe identifies Flash Player 7 for Pocket PC:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer_pocketpc/
    This page identifies FlashLite 2.1 which seems to be based on
    Flash Player 7
    but includes Action Script 2.0 support:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashlite/
    Does anyone know for sure? We'd like to do some monitoring
    & reporting
    in Flex & make it available on the go for people, but
    don't want to go buy the phones
    until we know it is possible.
    Thanks

    If so, then Flash is installed fine. Note, though, that Flash
    content will
    only play when viewed in a browser (html file) or when
    embedded in an
    application using ActiveX or similar. So if you are tryting
    to play a swf
    file, that won't work.

  • What do I do when I get a message that adobe reader 7 is not compatable with windows 8?

    What do I need to do when a website sends me a message that my adobe reader 7 is not compatable with windows 8?

    Are you using Adobe Reader 7 on Windows 8? If so, the message is probably correct and you should download the latest version of Adobe Reader (which is XI).
    If you already have Reader XI, maybe you can give us some more details about where you are at and what you are doing when you get this message.

    Adobe 5.0 compatibility with Windows 7

    there's a chance you could use compatibility mode to install acrobat 5.
    if that fails, your only option is to buy an old computer with an old os or buy or subscribe to a current acrobat, http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatstandard/buying-guide.html

  • Is Robohelp 5x compatable with Windows 7

    Is Robohelp 5x compatable with Windows 7 - what will happen if I upgrade to Windows 7

    Hiya
    It is my understanding that Windows 7 Home Premium does not offer the ability to right-click an application shortcut and choose XP Compatibility mode within the shortcut properties as seen here:
    I believe that in order to see that tab, you must upgrade to Professional or Ultimate. That's why I chose to upgrade to Ultimate initially after obtaining the new PC.
    Having said that, there is another feature that is a free download from Microsoft for users of Professional or Ultimate. That's the Windows Virtual machine. You may find that even though you choose Compatibility mode in the shortcut properties, it still doesn't allow your software to work properly. So you download and install the Windows Virtual Machine, then you download and install the Windows XP Mode. What this does is creates a virtual environment of Windows XP that opens and runs inside your Windows 7. Then you install the software into the environment and it should work.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Software for HP solutions center is not compatable with windows 7

    I bought a HP note book pc with windows 7 64 bit operating system.  I'm using a HP officejet 4315v all in one printer that works perfectly using the driver detected by windows 7 installed using the USB cable.  Previously I had installation software for the HP solution center program that worked with XP and Vista.  When I tried to install the software in  windows 7 I received the message telling me it was incompatable with my operating system.  There seems to be  according  all my research in the HP system no updated software to use Window solutiions center with Windows 7 64 bit operating system.  HP says there is a work around that will open the toolbox in order to check ink levels but not much more.  It doesn't work.  I know microsoft 7 provides a way to scan and fax but HP solution center was by far better.  Are there any solutions I might have misses or suggestion?  I would appreciate any help given. TIA

    The only solution for the officejet 4315v is the in-OS driver in WIndows 7,  there is no full feature software availible for this printer in that OS.

    Open your Displays system preferences.  Is there an Arrangement tab and does it show two screens?  If no Arrangement tab then your mac does not know it has two screens.  Maybe smc and pram reset will shake it free and maybe not.  Maybe there's something wrong with the connection.  Thunderbolt plugs are similar to mini-displayport plugs so make sure the plug is pushed firmly in so that essentially all the metal part disappears inside the socket.  The plugs can be a little tricky in that you need to make sure the plug is fully seated in their socket.
    If you do see two screens in the Arrangement tab then click Detect Displays and Gather Windows to get the Displays preferences of the other monitor on to your main monitor.  Check the resolution and if there is a refresh rate check that as well.

  • Is PE7 compatable with windows 7 64bit?

    are there any versions of Adobe Premiere Elements besides PE8 that are compatable with Windows 7 64bit? I have heard of lots of problems with PE8 and I would prefer using PE7 if possible. Actually I use PE3 with XP home 32 bit and love and don't really want to upgrade but it seems like i might have to. thanks

    i downloaded the PE8 trial and have worked with it for a couple of hours and had only one glitch so far. while capturing it froze after about 10 minutes, i had to capture the rest and splice it in. i added some titles and a 2nd audio track that was mono and used audio effects to copy left track to right track, i faded in video and audio and so far everything seems to be working fine.
    i have an intel MB  D975XBX2
    dual core processor,
    4 gigs of RAM
    win7 pro 64bit
    it's taking a little getting used to but probably not as hard as trying to learn a whole other program like sony studio for example. i've got 30 days and i'll keep using it and see how it goes but so far, so good.
