    I'm not sure, but I know it's not recommended to upgrade to iOS 8 on anything older than an iPhone 5. I only lost my music playlists and music that was on my phone, but that music is also on my iTunes, not the playlists though, and I don't want to go through ALL my iTunes library to fix it either... But it seems I don't have a choice right now.
    Whatever you do, do NOT upgrade to iCloud Drive, keep iCloud till OS X Yosemite comes out, if your computer is a Mac. I also just noticed that all my documents on my phone are gone from Pages, BUT if I go on the iCloud website they are still there. Hopefully it will all work itself out when I can update my macbook pro to OS X Yosemite.
    If you backed up your phone and all your purchases off your iPhone prior to trying to upgrade you should be fine... But I'm not even remotely sure.

  • I have a C6380, The printer works with my laptop running Vista and MacBook but not Windows 7. Why??

    I have had my C6380 for quite a while, now.  I have a personal laptop running Vista and have no problems.  I have a MacBook for work that I use with the printer with no problems.  I also have a desktop that was working well for a long time with this printer and for the last number of months (I haven't counted), I have been having a lot of problems. 
    Either the computer cannot find the driver or the computer delivers a message that the printer is off line (even though it works with the other computers).  I use the C6380 via a home wireless network.
    Reinstalling the HP Software helps for a short time, but the problem soon recurs.
    I cannot seem to find anything in any of the Trouble shooting guides on HP or MS websites.  HELP!

    If it works on one Firefox 3.6.10 installation, it should work on the other - assuming both PC's have exactly the same version of Norton installed, including that Firefox Toolbar extension. Another possibility is that Norton uses a different version of their software on WinXP than they use on Vista.
    Tools > Addons > Extensions - does the Norton Toolbar show as being incompatible?
    You could try forcing a Norton program update to see if their Firefox extension gets updated.

  • Just bought a new laptop, windows vista and it say gateway and my ipod touch not showing up

    I just bought a new laptop, Windows vista to be exact, i downloaded the latest version of itunes and my ipod is not showing up ? Anyone can help me

    See:

    I would start with
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

  • I have v6.0.2 x86 en-US installed on a laptop running Vista, and a desktop running W7. After the installation, I have been unable to attach anything from a file onto an email. If I switch to IE, it works just fine. HELP!

    I disabled all of the plug-ins and anti-virus program but it still won't attach files (BMP, JPG, etc) to any email.

    No problems here with uploading an attachment to Yahoo when composing a new mail.<br />
    Make sure that you do not block JavaScript
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Dell Laptop w/Vista and AX

    I'm helping setting up a AX for a friend, He has a Dell Studio 1737 running Vista SP1 and fully upto date. I've configured the AX and my MacBook and iPhone pick it up perfectly and his laptop refuses to even see the AX consistently (it appears briefly and then disappears in the network configuration window in vista). I've even booted the laptop using a Ubuntu LiveCD and it found the AX and worked flawlessly.
    Therefore there is no hardware issues with either the AX or the Dell. Any suggestions as how to get the Dell to connect?

    I agree, this seems like a Vista problem. I suggest you post your question in the Airport for Windows forum, where you may find more longsuffering Windows inmates than in this one. Good luck!
    I will, thanks for that

  • File sharing between vista and xp with wrt110

    is there a way to file share when they are both hard wired to th router? if soi can some one tell me hoy to do it?  thanks

    Once you get it running you can turn the firewalls back on and put them in your trusted network.  Just turn them off to get it started.  And no to the usb cable.

  • Sharing Files between Windows Vista and Macbook Pro

    Hi everyone!
    I have just bought my first Macbook Pro and I love it. I am running Windows Vista on my desktop and connect wirelessly to the internet via a Netgear router. I have managed to connect to the internet with the Macbook Pro wirelessly too.
    I am not sure how to set up file sharing between the PC and Macbook - can anyone point me to some SIMPLE instructions please?
    Many thanks

    this is a wonderful article! thanks so much!
    only one small change though. you don't really need to create another user ID to access the windows machine. i used my existing ID and it logged on fine!
    but still, thanks for the rest of the article. i was totally lost without it...

  • Cant see m4r. files in the itunes tones tab

    Hello everyone,
    I've converted a song, a m4a file to a m4r, so i can get it as ringtone for my iphone (im actually working on macbook pro 15' retina, OSX 10.9.3). I done all the process, but i just see the file on my library and not on the tones section. And when i connect my iphone 5s i cant find the Tones tab either. I can't drop and drag the file on tones, i cant do nothing to put the file there. I've restarted, everything possible, but nothing... Does someone knows why? Thank you

    p.s - ive selected TONES on preferences - it shows this tab, but not the file that i converted. Just in case...

  • File sharing XP-VISTA (WIRELESS) WEIRDEST THING I EVER SEEN!

    Ok i said to myself lets give file sharing between my laptop and fixed pc a try with laptop running vista and fixed pc xp pro (always worked with xp-xp and just new WRTN150N).
    Not suprized off course that it did not work vista has been fine tuning from day one for me?
    So with my usual googling power and checklist I went to work
    -same workgroup (CHECK!)
    -NORTON (CHECK!)
    -FIREWALL(CHECK!)
    -WRT150N checking for possible security block(CHECK i think)
    30 min getting frustrated
    50 min the network map SHOW MY FIXED PC WOEEEEEHOOOOOO
    57 min BUT BUT why cant just click my shared fixed pc in network map 1h10 min found google answer saying they had to buy a new router (MY **bleep** IT IS brand new WRTN150v1.1)
    1h30 min crying on the inside has turned into cyring on the outside 1h50 plugged in vista in ethernet port EVERYTHING WORKED followed by lot and lot of swearing 2h05 double checked everything
    2h20 SCREW IT
    2h21 psshed said the intervoice inside my head ping!
    2h22 ping works fine (ZOMG)
    2h30 what if instead of using all the computer names you just type in the ip adress of the fixed pc said the innervoice
    2h35-2h50 why does this work why why why why why why DNS?????
    This is the network shown by vista when using ethernet I just click on icon of fixed pc below and bingo i have acess to share stuffers ethernet
    The following link is the laptop on wireless and for some stupid reason if i want to access shares it has to be with ip adresses wireless
    So conclusion
    sharing ethernet (just click in networkplaces,XP,VISTA)
    sharing wiresless (\\ipadress\sharelocation)
    ALL THIS MAKE NO SENSE TO ME!

    Your computer software firewall may be blocking the file and printer sharing. It was for me. Go into your software firewall 'Trust' settings and check to insure that the Linksys WRT150N physical address is 'Trusted' on all networked PC's.
    I had previously just disabled the firewall. Apparently that's not totally effective.
    Hope this helps.

  • Unreliable wireless communication between laptop (Vista) and Time Capsule

    I am using a Time capsule for my wire less router at home. I have a new laptop running vista and the connection fails frequently. It is restored using repair. This does not happen with this laptop in other wireless locations. I also do not have this problem with my older laptop running xp (at least not as often). Any suggestions?
    I am thinking of buying a 802.11n card for the laptop. any chances this will help?

    Please open AirPort Utility, select the Time Capsule and click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab just under the row of icons
    What is the setting that you have for "Wireless Mode" on this device?
    It should be "Extend a wireless network" and the other settings should match those on the AirPort Extreme.
    Open AirPort Utility, select the AirPort Extreme, and click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab below the icons
    Make sure that you have a check mark next to "Allow this network to be extended"

  • Writing file with windows 7 and vista os..

    hi,
    since i am using Windows XP operating system with Labview, i made a executable file and i trying to install with Windows 7 or Vista OS installed PC. 
    when my device is detect it will gives the hardware information , that have to save in to the hard disk, where i am usually putting near to my Application
    program exe file. using XP will not be any problem its creates and writes the information file.
    for the Vista and windows 7 OS has a adminstrative writes it wont allow to create and write a new file where near to application exe file.
    is there any method has to set these file for administrative rights on Windows 7 and vista OS?
    i am using Labview 8.6 version
    Regards,
    Balaji DP

    You would need to log into the computer with an account that has administrative rights. Or, you could configure the application to run under the administrator account. Both of these are Windows operations.
    Or, you could fix your code so it doesn't do that.

  • See ALL files that ONE file links to?

    I am wondering if it is possible to choose a file (say "test_photo.jpg" image) and see ALL of the other files that the image is linked to.So ideally, I would like to choose "test_photo.jpg" and somewhere it would show me that "test_photo.jpg" is used as a link in "brochure_layout.indd", "business_card.ai", and "postcard.indd".
    This could be in Adobe Bridge, in the meta data, in another program, anything really. I just want to know if this information is stored somewhere on the computer?
    I know that Bridge can select an InDesign file & tell you what the links are; but that is not the information that I'm looking for; again, this is more for images files to see ALL of the different files that link to it.
    Hope someone has some insight if this exists.
    Thanks!
    Tia

    I just want to know if this information is stored somewhere on the computer
    The only thing that comes to my mind is that you have one specific keyword written to all these files (many file types can store metadata but not all so that might be a problem) and then use the find command on the main folder and criteria the specific keyword to find.
    Otherwise I agree with Station Two

  • I am trying to move a pdf file onto my iPad2, and it says that the device is not connected or has stopped working.  But Windows 7 recognizes the device and I can see my pictures.  Same thing happens when I try to put music onto the iPad.

    I am trying to move a pdf file onto my iPad2, and it says that the device is not connected or has stopped working.  But Windows 7 recognizes the device and I can see my pictures.  Same thing happens when I try to put music onto the iPad.

    When in iTunes on the computer,my our ipadmshould show under devices.
    Click on your ipadmunder devices then go to music at top center of the iTunes window, check what you want to sync for music. You need to set it to a folder if I remember which would have your music in it you want synced.
    Same with PDF files.....there should be an option for data or even PDF files at the top center area of iTunes when the iPad is clicked under devices.
    If your iPad does not show or you cannot click on it under devices which is in the leftane of iTunes, the iPad is not being seen by the computer.
    Try unplugging the USB cord from the laptop then give it a few and see if the computer picks it up.
