LV 8.2 won't associate with VIs and uses 7.1 RTE?!?!

Hi,
I'm in the process of creating a new exe of our project. A strange thing keeps happening and I don't know what's wrong. I had LV 7.1 installed on the machine, as well as LV 8.2 to transition to the new version. I created an .lvproj and built a new .exe of our application. Lo and behold, it flashes the LV 7.1 flash screen and then asks me to select the VI I want to run, when i select the main VI of the application, it simply gives me an Error 9 message and says that that vi is compiled in version 8.2 of LV and won't open. I tried right-clicking on a vi and trying to force it to associate with 8.2, that didn't work. I uninstalled 7.1 and the 7.1 RTE entirely and when I try to run my LV 8.2 built exe it STILL manages to use the 7.1 run time from somewhere.
After that I tried to re-associate them with 8.2 yet again to no avail. When i run my exe it just tries to open them in the non-existing 7.1 RTE and re-associates them all with 7.1. Please help, i think this is a bug.

Justin,
Thanks for the reply. I do understand how bizzare this must seem to you, I had the same reaction. I know perfectly well the behavior of LV built exe, been using it for 5 years. The problem here is the bizzare behavior of the .exe (any in fact, i've built several test vis and exes) on 3 different machines.
I'll try to explain what's happening:
1) I create a new project
2) I add my Test.vi to the project
3) I set my Test.vi as the startup vi (Test.vi simply calls my main vi via the vi reference).
4) I build the exe and execute it
5) Upon execution, an LV 7.1 splash screen pops up for a brief second and I get an Open VI file dialog box asking me to select a VI I want to open, all the VI files inside that window take on the appearance of LV7.1 icons, instead of 8.2. If I try to select a VI from that window, I get LabView load error 9: VI version (8.2) is newer than LabView version (7.1).
I'm used to that error after you recompile a 7.1 vi to 8.2, but I don't even have LV7.1 installed. It seems like the exe is trying to use LV7.1 RTE to run itself instead of 8.2. I though I have 8.2 RTE automatically installed by LV Dev, but I guess not since it doesn't show in Add/Remove Programs menu, but it DOES show up in MAX under software, go figure. I wish I could get someone in NI to look into this. I've never had a problem like this, it is happening on 3 PCs here and is taking up a lot of work time. I have source code I can send as well as a short video of what's happening on my machine.

  • My Viewsonic monitor won't work with the Imac using the Mini Port to DVI adapter.

    My Viewsonic monitor won't work with the Imac using the Mini Port to DVI adapter. I also tried the HDMI to DVI adapter ane the Mac-Mini with same result. The monitor does work on my older Macbook Pro that has the DVI connector. Is it a Software/Driver issue ?

    Should be extremely simple, please carefully read Connect multiple displays to your Mac. If you still have problems then it's probably a cable issue that would be resolved by replacing the adapter cable. You should be using this adapter. If you are using a third party adapter that might be your problem!

    Help, I installed parallel and windows, and opened videos (on an external hard disk) with windows, and now cannot open them with Mac, and use i movies.  How do I reverse this?

    Paragraphs help the reader, just saying.
    What are you actually trying to do? Why do you need "DVD size" folders if you're creatng an Archive on an external hard drive?
    Also, I understand burning folders instead of individual photos or albums gives you more space on a DVD.
    It makes no difference at all.
    How can I keep the captions on my photos (not events) when I print or transfer to a new folder?
    You can export while writing the metadata to the file in most cases.
    Tne only way I know is to copy photos from the Windows to folders on my HD, then copy and paste photos or albums or events to HD, then create a new folder and fill it to the appropriate DVD size. 
    HD? Another HD? You use HD there in a way that makes no sense. What's the point of 'DVD size'?
    I also thought I should download future photos to my Canon programming that comes with EOS cameras and edit and then decide which photos to save to iPhoto library and which to save only to my archival HD?
    Does this have any relation to the previous questions? You know you can delete from iPhoto, right?
    You're somewhat confused and you need to
    1. Decide what exactly you want to do
    2. Then go about it.
    If I understand you correctly - and there's no guarantee that I do -  the easiest thing is to bring all your Photos into iPhoto and do everything from there.
    You can have an archive on an external disk, you can sort and select and edit with or via iPhoto

    Hi Jan,
    If I understand correctly you are going to perform database migration activity in your present landscape. Firstly you have to contact SAP as well as one of the third party hardware vendor (who is going to provide certified HANA hardware). SAP will provide you all the license details.
    For whole your migration activity below link will be helpful:-

  • Hello friends , I have started with writing  c code on mac using xcode .....but one of my friend told me to use gcc for coding. He started with terminal And used a text editor to compil the c program on his mac.. So please tell me how to do the same

    Hello friends , I have started with writing  c code on mac using xcode .....but one of my friend told me to use gcc for coding. He started with terminal And used a text editor to compil the c program on his mac.. So please tell me how to do the same and is there any pre stalled text editor on mac if yes then where and if no then which text editor to install and how to install gcc...please help me out thanks in advance !!!

    I have started with writing  c code on mac using xcode .....but one of my friend told me to use gcc for coding.
    Why? If you are developing and writing code on a Mac why would you not use the tools Apple has given you? And Xcode, once you get use to it, is a very nice development environment that will make you life a whole lot easier.
    If you insist on using an editor and the terminal I would recommend  Emacs   but it has a long learning curve so  something like TextWrangler  will work too.
    As for the compiler if you have Xcode installed install the command line tools and you will be able to compile from the terminal.
    good luck

  • Tried to update to newest version. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes and is stuck on a connection with itunes screen

    I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.

    oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-

  • Accessing Parallel Port Control and Status Registers with VISA and Win7x64

    Hello all,
    I've posted this in the I/O forum for VISA, but this main forum seems to get a lot more traffic so I'm posting here too.
    Wondering if anyone has a solution for accessing the Control and Status registers on a parallel port with VISA, now that Win7 has locked down the I/O ports and In Port.vi and Out Port.vi don't work anymore.  I've been looking all over for a solution and haven't found anything that will help; either the VISA solution is shown but doesn't mention if the Status and Control registers are accessible, or the solution is for a 32 bit system.
    The one thing I found was under Instrument I/O>VISA>VISA Advanced, there is a group of functions called Register Access; but, when I investigate that, it seems to need an address that the detailed help describes as "VXI, VME, and GPIB-VXI" or "PXI" with no mention of Parallel Port usage, so I'm pretty much at the end of what I can figure out.
    Basically what I need to do is use the data lines to send info, and watch the status lines for incoming discrete signals.  Since parallel ports are half duplex, I can't have the data lines be both inputs and outputs simultaneously, which is what I need.  A cheap D I/O card would be the easiest solution, but to make a long story short I'm dealing with a legacy system and that's something my higher-ups want to avoid.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Hello,
    I was able to solve this problem using software from Entech Taiwan; it's called TVicPort and it's available for free for personal use, and very cheaply for commercial license.  If you have questions let me know, I'll do my best to answer them but investigate Entech's solution and see if it'll work for you:

  • My iPhone calendar entries won't sync with my iCal using iTunes

    Hi,
    For some odd reason my iPhone calendar entries will not sync with my iCal using the sync feature in iTunes.
    The syncing of everything else seems to be working just fine but in the last couple of days ~ now the calendars won't sync.
    Entries that I've made in iCal sync alright to my iPhone but not the other way around.....
    Anyone out there got any suggestions???

    First make sure you are entering the events on your phone to your Mac calendar and not some other calendar such as On My iPhone.  If you are, and they still won't sync, try resetting the SyncServices folder on your mac, as explained in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627, then try syncing your calendar again.  (If you are prompted when syncing your calendar, choose Merge.)

  • Actatel 871 cellphone won't pair with Macbook Pro using system 10.0/4

    I have a 3 month old Macbook Pro that came with Maverick on it (10.9.4) and I am unable to pair it successfully with my Actatel 871 phone which works perfectly with my iMac using system 10.6.8.  It will look like it's pairing, then when I send a picture from my Actatel 871, it says "unfinished" And when I try to connect with bluetooth, it says "connection failed". Yet I can send a file from my computer to the phone using bluetooth.
    My husband's Pantech Swift would not send a photo either but I figured a way around that which does work on the Actatel 871. If I open my bluetooth file exchange, do to the "file" menu, I can pick "Browse device" and that way I can get photos off his phone. When I try doing that with my phone, it says that my device is not set up for that. Using the iMac with system 10.6.8 is so easy to use, you just send the files from both phones and they arrive on my computer.
    Does anyone know if the Maverick is not compatible with some phones that were compatible with 10.6.8? Or perhaps I'm doing it incorrectly? Has anyone else had a similar problem?
    Thank you, Martha

    Hi mflembeck!
    Thanks for posting!
    I would like for you to check over a few things that will help me determine what is causing this.
    What specific version of EOS Utility are you using?
    Are you using the old configuration on the camera or have you tried forgetting those settings and starting a completely new setup?
    Also, just to be sure, do you have an ethernet connection to the Macbook at the same time as you have the wireless connection?

  • I am having trouble with Greasemonkey and using Firefox 3.6.13

    Using Greasemonkey on Facebook I am getting errors when games reload. What is causing this? Can it be fixed? Is there a way to load the earlier version of Firefox?

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded

  • Any Issues with X250 and Using 3 Monitors?

    With input from this forum, I went ahead and ordered an X250.  ETA first week of April.  Thank you... (ask me in May if I am still as grateful   )
    My plan is to also purchase an Ultra dock and use the screen on the notebook as well as two external displays.  I did some research and understand certain video ports take priority over others, but this should no be an issue.
    After reading another thread (here) I am concerned this setup may not be as reliable as one would hope.  I realize the thread references an X240 (not an X250), but would like to know if others have a 3 display setup with the X250 and if they enountered any issues?
    Thanks again.  This group has provided a wealth of information that has essentially kept me in the Lenovo camp.  I currently use a W520 and was pretty close to moving another manufacturer altogether.
    Solved!

    Hi Technobob,
    I'm using a ThinkPad X240 daily on a ThankPad Ultra Dock with two 1920x1080 DisplayPort monitors simultaneously with the X240 LCD. Also have an X250 which occasionally gets plugged in to the same dock and all three monitors work, no issues.
    Hope this helps!

  • Hooking mac mini up to emac with firewire, and using emac as the display

    Is this possible? Would it work to hook up the mac mini via firewire to the emac and use the emac disaplay to run the computer? Thanks

    I second that!
    This is a question that is asked with remarkable regularity, and while it is possible to connect the two systems and to 'run' the mini either as a remote hard drive (a very expensive way of gaining slow external storage) or remote control it, the former is an inefficient use of the mini and the latter only allows you to open a window onto the mini from the host system, where performance is somewhat limited.
    Better in this sort of situation to sell the old system and use the money to buy a new display for the mini, or if the old system is needed and funds very limited, to look for a used display.
