Latest on Vista?????

Ok, it comes next week and I was told by MS that all of the OEM's are going to offer Vista only on their systems. So where is Oracle on having a Vista solution? I would think by now that there would at least be a beta of something to test. It's going to be hard when next month a new client wants to buy our software and he/she mentions they got a brand new computer from Della on it has Vista, I'll have to break the bad news to them.

I can tell them and I do, but we do have a percentage that will buy their own equipment (even before they call to order software), and from what I have heard starting when Vista is released, thats your only choice from the big vendors. I just thought that with something like a completely new OS coming we would have some sort of beta to test by now or there would be some statement from Oracle on what the status is. If they said ' you have to wait 1 year after Vista's release' I wouldn't be thrilled, but at least I would know what the story is and would have a definite game plan and could convey that to my customers.

Acrobat 7 and Reader 8 stall with latest Windows Vista Update

After downloading and installing the most recent Windows Vista 64 bit update, neither reader or acrobat will start when I attempt to open a .pdf document. I ran 'system restore' to undue the Windows Update and all is now fine, .pdf's will now open using acrobat or reader... I believe this update is the culprit to acrobat or reader being able to start once the updates been installed: Windows Live Essentials 2011 (KB2434419) Download size: 157.3 MB Update type: Recommended

hmmm, my version (7.0.9) of AA7 pro runs just fine on my copy of Windows 64 bit (longhorn) using the AMD 64 bit processor... Unless I install the latest windows update... Then, as already stated, both AA7 and Reader fail to start when I attempt to open an existing .pdf... MS needs to better debug the current windows update file...

NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT driver for Vista x64

Hello,
I have an issue with my new MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz 17" that was released on the 5th of June, 2007.
It has NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT installed on it and I simply cannot find Vista 64 bit drivers for it.
I have tried the latest beta Vista x64 drivers (163.11) downloaded from nVidia's official website. I have tried several previous versions including 100.97 one, which contains drivers for 8600M GT model. But they don't work with me. All the driver installation programs allert the following error and quit:
'The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit'.
I also tried Vista 32-bit drivers for 8600M GT. The driver installation program claims the operation system is wrong and quits.
Anybody has the same issue?
Does a working driver of nVidia GeForce 8600M GT for Vista x64 exist at all?
MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz Windows Vista nVidia GeForce 8600M GT

There was one Apple's presentstion where they boot into Windows Vista. So if you claim you can do it why do you forget about Vista x64 customers? I reckon it is because of Leopard that is coming. But it's not an excuse.
I'm currently working in Vista x64 and everything is fine except one thing, I cannot find a working graphics card driver and it is manufacturer's responsibility to provide it. Apple knew there going to be customers who will install Vista x64 on their computers and they at Apple didn't care about it because I guess it's a lame war between you know who.
So why you don't make everything perfect to attract even more Windows customers but instead you hint that you don't care about Vista x64 as you are getting your own 64-bit OS soon. So now they are forcing me to wait having been announced that I can use Vista. But isn't that kind of lame that it's slightly tardy? Why I should wait for Leopard launch if I was insured that Windows will work on my Macbook Pro? Because Apple claim you can run Windows. And don't say it's not official. Who else if not Apple made it possible to run Windows on Mac.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to insult you. I'm just angry that I cannot find a working driver.

Vista drivers problems Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Noteb

First thing to do: haveyour systemchecked out, if windows says the hardware is failing there may really be something wrong with it.
If the SB card works in an XP machine there may be a problem in the the PCI slot or controller on the motherboard, either way have a tech shop look at it. If thehardware allchecks out: before putting the card back in completely delete the old driver and software, download the new one without installing it, then put the card in and windows should try to auto-install with the new driver.P.S. the platinum version is the one with thecontrol panel that slots into a dri've bay, if you have one of those, it's a platinum, if not, it's a regulHi all, how are you
I have a Sony VAIO VGN-SZ430N/B notebook, and I'm trying to install Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Notebook on it (Unfortunately, the notebook came with windows vista business from factory).
This notebook has a Texas Instruments PCMCIA controller.
Under "Device Manager" the PCMCIA controller is described as "Texas
Instruments PCI-8x2/7x2/6x2 CardBus Controller", but on Sony's
webpage the driver that seems to be related to it is "Texas
Instruments PCI74 Integrated FlashMedia Controller Driver".
It is kind of all in one solution from Texas Instruments (PCMCIA
controller, Memory Card reader, and Firewire controller).
Please, may someone help me to answer the questions bellow
1)Are there any kind of compatibility problem between this notebook PCMCIA controller (described above), and Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Notebook
2)I've already brought this notebook to Sony's support service, so they could verify if there is any kind of hardware problem with the notebook. Sony's technician wasn't able to find any hardware problems on it, but I'm experiencing the problem described below:
2.)Every time that I plug this sound card on my notebook, and I try to install Creative's latest windows Vista drivers(Creative Sound Blaster Audigy series Vista Driver 2.2.0002), thus It leads me to a Blue Screen during the driver installation process. Please, Does somebody know what could be this problem root causeIt is very weird, even if i try to install this sound card on clean windows vista install, then it leads me to blue screen. Besides, I have another PCMCIA card from another manufacturer, and I was able to install its windows vista drivers with no problem.(It sounds that Creative labs' vista drivers is the problem root cause as I've tested this sound card on a different notebook with windows xp and It worked fine).
3)Does anyone know if creative is planning to release a windows vista driver that allows the users to use all of this sound card featuresSo far the latest driver available doesn't support even DVD-Audio. Have creative labs discontinued this product
I appreciate any help you can give me,
thanks in advance,
Rogerr ZS.

The best advice I can give is to fully remove ALL Creative software.We've compiled a list of entries that will cause problems here. It's very important before installing newer files.http://nomoregoatsoup.wordpress.com/...tall-problems/Then install some better drivers and see if that cures your issues. The 2.2.0002 drivers are really, really awful, 99% of people I've spoken to had problems with them. I personally like 2.5.0002 Hope this helps.

ITunes Vista 64 bit --- display errors

I have recently run into a problem with iTunes 8.2 for Vista 64 bit. When the window is not maximized, or close to taking up my entire screen, podcast and album covers, icons for the 'GET" for podcast, the icons for closing/max/min in the top right corner, and the store front does not scroll properly. There is a weird drawing error that seems to get resolved once I maximize iTunes to take up the entire screen.
I have uninstalled, redownloaded the latest iTunes Vista 64 bit, but to no avail remains unresolved. For the life of me I can't figure out why this is happening. I don't recall having this problem with the prior version of iTunes. I am running on a new Sager 9262 laptop with a GeForce 9800M GTX. I can't imagine this could be a video driver issue since it was working fine before.

Well I have an update. I uninstalled MS Office and still had the black screen issue with iTunes. Resizing did not help, Turning off DEP had no effect.
To make a long story short. I found a utility I had installed from the Samsung T260 monitor CD was causing my Problem. I disabled MultiScreen in the start up configuration (msconfig from the Command prompt).
iTunes (including the new version 8) has not had the black screen since I disabled (and then uninstalled) MultiScreen.
I do not know if there is an update to MultiScreen - I don't use it anyway.
Neilapril - this has worked for me... I hope it does the same for you.

Vista-scan and fix?

When I connect my 5th Gen ipod to the notebook i get a message from Vista asking whether it wants me to scan and fix my device. I have downloaded the latest MS Vista updates and patches but this still occurs.
Looking on the web I have seen a solution using chkdsk from the command prompt and have tried that as well. It too doesn't work for me. The response I get is that the device is using "RAW" format and that chkdsk is unable to work in this format.
My ipod and itunes are up to date because I had to download the latest version when i purchased this computer and I also update regularly.

I am having the same problem on my not-quite-2-year-old 5th generation. It's combined with an "Unknown Error -69" message that won't let the iPod sync, even though it shows as connected in iTunes. This just started with the update to version 8 iTunes. Today I have spent over three hours trying all the patches, including the Vista ones, but nothing works and NOW when I plug the iPod in (to both my laptop running Vista and my husband's, running XP) it refuses to do anything, saying the iPod is corrupted, and I need to restore. I restore, nothing happens. Basically I have a $300 paper weight - and since I restored, nothing is on it at all now.
I am beyond frustrated - we really can't e-mail or have a live chat with Apple techs? WTH kind of customer service is this?
Has anyone else had this issue? ANY other ideas?

Novell client on Vista log-in problem.

(Netware 6.5) Installing a Vista pro with the latest Novell VISTA
client ( 1.0), I ran into problems. It's like the client won't browse
the tree and therefore can't log in. If I enter the server's IP
address in the tree field, it finds both the context and the server
right away. But after a reboot, that's gone again and you have to
enter the server IP manually again to log in?
This works fine on the XP clients in the same network. I have tried
to enter the server IP in the SLP scope list and add DHCP to the
protocol list - but that didn't make any difference.
It's like the NW naming disappears after each reboot.
Any suggestions?

these are the classic "slp is not configured correctly" symptoms...
slpinfo /all shows what?
and do you have the proper DA IP# and scope configured?
there are MANY threads discussing this in this group. search should
find them....
Cheers!

[Work around] iPod Classic automatically disconnects when open itunes (PC Windows Vista)

I have a:
iPod Classic 120GB
HP Pavilion Laptop
iTunes 10 (latest)
Windows Vista OS (32-bit)
THE PROBLEM
I connect my iPod to my laptop with a working usb cable. The computer recognises the iPod as is shows up as a drive in "My Computer". But as soon as I open iTunes program, iTunes recognises the iPod for a few seconds, then automatically disconnects from the program and the computer.
Only after updating my iTunes to 10 have I encountered this problem.
I have tried all the suggestions on the apple forums and others to no avail.
THE WORK-AROUND
Calling this a work around simply because it is definately not a solution. and developers should really get off their backsides and fix this bug.concerning the problem of iPods (particular the older models) automatically disconnecting.
When connecting the iPod to the computer (NOT IN ITUNES), open the iPod drive through "My Computer", keep that window open as a folder, then proceed to run iTunes. This should allow you to use iPod through iTunes as normal.
NOTE: this is not a superfix and may not work for everyone, but it won't hurt to try. for more drastic but permanant solution, switching to 3rd party software might be for you. I have tried Songbird and had no problems link: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/29716/heres-five-alternatives-to-itunes-10-for-ea sily-managing-your-ipod/
Hope this helps. Peace

I'll give this a shot, thank you for posting. I don't want to say I'm glad it's a bug but it's better then two brand new ipods in 10 days being crap.

'Tap to click' not working in certain applications in Vista SP2

System: Alu Macbook c2d 2.4ghz (late 2008)
Bootcamp version 3/3.1 (Latest)
Windows Vista SP2
OS X 10.6.2
OK, insignificant problem, but to explain;
I have the Bootcamp control panel installed in Windows Vista under Bootcamp, and for the last 5 months, all has worked perfectly. 'Tap to click' has never had any problems anywhere in Windows, or related applications.
For the last few months I have run a game, Championship Manager 01/02 under Windows XP, in OS X 10.6, via VMWare 2. No issues at all, other than it wasn't the fastest. Tap to click worked fine in XP, and in the game.
A few days ago I gave my disks of VMWare and Vista to a family member as I didn't need them anymore, and planned to delete them both from my system. I then booted into Bootcamp where I run Vista SP2, and installed CM 01/02 directly onto the Windows system.
All worked and installed fine.... other than in CM 01/02 only, 'tap to click' does not work at all! I have to physically 'click' the keypad, which *****, is loud, and is a real pain.
I rechecked in XP under VMWare, and it works there, so I reinstalled under Windows Vista in Bootcamp, and again, no go.
I am just wondering if anyone may be able to tell me why this would happen just in this one application, and how I can go about fixing it!
TIA
Marc

After accidentally pressing down on the Magic Trackpad, I realized the trackpad has tactile feedback, that is, it is a big button that can be pressed down and pop back up like old computer mice. Though this will allow the trackpad to select the account I want to open in the Login Window, it still doesn't explain why "tap to click" isn't working in the Login Window. Nevertheless, my question can be considered as answered.

New 30gig and Windows Vista, need help!

My wife bought me a 30gig for father's day and I can't get it to work. I have a dell laptop with vista and I have tried numerous things. When I plug the ipod in, the computer has no rpoblem recognizing it at all. So once I'm in Itunes it starts to sync, but it gets to 300 or so songs copied and just stops, locks everything up, including internet, itunes, ipod, everything.....I've looked many times to make sure it wasn't the same song everytime and its not, I've downloaded Itunes 2 or 3 times, I've downloaded the latest updates (vista requires version 7.0 or greater), I've tried all of the USB ports (sides and back) and nothing seems to work. I've also downloaded the latest vista updates to no avail. It seems as though a lot of people that have vista are having the same problems, can anyone help???

I am faced with this same exact problem, however, I was able to update my iPod ONCE, when my computer didn't freeze, but since then it has continued to lock up. Oddly though, after I was able to update my iPod, only iTunes locks up, so I am still able to listen to the song I had started playing, move the mouse around and attempt to switch to other programs, which doesn't always work.
I've heard that turning your iPod off in the process of connecting it (Center+Menu) can help, but it hasn't fixed my issue, so could someone please help us out here?

Can I copy & install "ipod touch App Pack 4A93" in vista ultimate 64bit

I am to do a clean install of vista ultimate 64bit. This is a move from my present vista Home Premium 32 bit.
All my purchase for for the ipod touch have taken under vista 32bit and details are stored in App Data->Roaming->Apple Computer->iTunes->Mobile Applications->ipod touch App Pack 4A93.
Now when I do a clean install of my latest OS vista ultimate 64bit I will have to wipe clean of the drive and it will erase my "ipod touch App Pack 4A93" aswell. I have saved that in a usb key to copy that back in the correct folder. Now my question is can I copy that back in VISTA 64bit and will it recognise my previous purchases for my ipod touch?
Has anybody know it for sure?
Thanking you in advance for your help and assistance.

Hello.
I am not sure if the Vista 64 bit will know the folder and App pack or not. But some of the other methods of backing up and getting Apps back you purchased are below. I am not sure about the UK but I know in the USA when you purchase an App you can download it again for free without having to buy it again.

Windows Vista - Cannot Uninstall

I cannot uninstall 7.6 from my 64 Bit Windows Vista computer. I can not upgrade either. What could be the problem?

I am running Vista 64 bit. I installed the 64 bit vista version of iTunes...when the installation was finished, it said something along the lines of "iTunes was installed, but encounterred errors. iTunes might not work properly." (Not the exact message, but it was something like that). Now when I open iTunes, I get a message saying exactly "WARNING! The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for imp and bruning CDs and DVDs are missing. This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please reinstall iTunes".
Now, this message is different from the one I use to get. I follow the guide on iTunes support, the one going into the registry and modifying one to change something with a CD burner...it didn't fix it so I just restored the original state of the registry. I'm not worried about burning CDs, but my iTunes also doesn't support iPhone or iPod Touch (I have both). When I plug it in, it says that the mobile driver is missing please reinstall iTunes.
NOW FOR THE REAL PROBLEM:
I go to my Uninstall or Change a Program. I click uninstall iTunes. Preparing to remove...Gathering require information...Won't do anything after that. So then I go to apple's website and download the latest 64 vista bit version. I run the installer. Click next. I aaccept. Install it in it's same directory...the one that it is currently installed in. It then starts installing. Updating...copying new files..then. ROLLING BACK ACTION?
Now for the big thing:
"iTunes Installer Completed
The installer ecountered errors before iTunes could be configured.
To retry these operations at a later time, please run the installer again.
Click Finish to exit the installer.
Can't get it to uninstall. Can't get it to install. Please help!

Vista message appears - USB Device not recognized

Hi,
I have been getting the error messages "USB device not recognized" from Windows Vista.
It keeps on repeating itself sporadically.
The problem is that I do not have any USB device attach or plug to my computer.
It happens to sometimes plugged my USB Flash key device to drop some documents on my hard drive but I immediately unplugged the device after the task is done.
I used to have a Lexmark 1290 printer plug to my computer but since it was not working fine on Vista I have decided to unplug it and delete the peripheral in my printer manager.
I have installed the latest Windows Vista Update, BIOS update, and all possible drivers but I still having the messages.
Does anyone have a idea of what could be my problem?
Thanks

hi aladino00,
try this:
- connect all of your usb-devices to the notebook (printer, usb-storage)
- use this devices once (print and copy some files)
- then use the "safe remove of hardware" in your system tray and use the dialog to remove the usb-devices
restart notebook (cold reboot) and test it...
maybe there is a registry key been written that causes this behaviour...
therefor the described routine should eliminate it and make your notebook akt correctly again...

http://ask.creative.com/wwenglish/vi..._matrix_de.htm WebCam Live! Motion32-Bit Treiber Q4 CY2007?64-Bit Treiber TBC Q4 2007 Its a bad joke, isn't it?

Hello, i've had my Creative Live Motion working fine under Vista for weeks until today after i have uninstalled the Logitech Quickcam software from my computer (as it doesn't work with my Sphere only the new Sphere MP). After that the Creative driver stopped working, i have searched around on internet and in this forum and looks like everybody have the same problem under Vista. after having tried everything else I have decided to reinstall the latest Logitech Vista driver :http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/do...,contentid=003 and then the 2000/xp driver for the Live Motion from Creative website which finally installed correctly and is again working fine. I have developped webcamXP and i've been using this driver under Vista for days without interruptions and without any problems, everything is working fine including the directX functions to control the pan and tilt through software. This worked for me i hope it'll work for you
