Can't reinstall Embedded Lockdown Manager in Windows 8.1 with KB3031044

Embedded Lockdown Manager (kb2959936) is a build-in feature/update in Windows 8.1 with update 3 (the November 2014 full media refresh image), now MS remove it by
KB3031044
I want to reinstall ELM, BUT THE RESOLUTION SEEMS DIDN'T WORK, I can't reinstall ELM by apply KB2932354 or KB2959936
And I run the updates clean-up command already
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase
so I can't uninstall KB303144
Maybe MS need release a refresh version of ELM?

Update 3? I don't see a 3 version in MSDN. If you check Programs and Features - > Turn On or Off Windows Features, you should be able to enabled ELM.
Also, ELM does come as a separate ISO file on MSDN: <label class="description" id="description3">Windows Embedded 8.1 Industry Pro ELM Update</label>

I can't reinstall Adobe Application Manager (AAM)

I have Adobe CS5 installed (and working) on my Mac Pro tower running Lion (10.7.5) with 3 Terabytes of disk and 14 Gigabytes of memory. However, somehow, Adobe Application Manager (AAM) was deleted -- perhaps my carelessness, though I do not remember how that might have been.
Now I can't install new software, uninstall CS5, or even reinstall AAM. If I download AAM and try to install it, the installer fails to initialize (a close paraphrase of the message that appears in the popup), and suggests I contact the manufacturer. I have done this and unfortunately the telephone support have (so far) been unable to fix the problem, despite significant time spent trying various things with me.
Does anyone out there have any ideas as to how I might proceed.
I should add that I have "Repaired permissions" (more than once) and even downloaded a fresh copy of Lion and reinstalled it. Nothing changed.
Thanks in anticipation your help.

I got a call back from Adobe this morning and we deleted a few folders and we were then able to install AAM. This then allowed Acrobat XI Pro to be installed with no problems. Screen shot of the relevant entries in Trash for information, but I am not sure where the folders were originally located.
AAMUpdater had one empty folder in it ("1.0"). AAMUpdateInventory had a folder "1.0" in it which contained a whole bunch of stuff -- 70 folders of Adobe stuff on various aps, extension manager, fonts, ... The "Application Manager" folder had seven folders and four files, and the "ApplicationManager" folder (note the absence of a space) had an empty AAMRefs folder only.
It all happened too quickly to make proper notes.

HT1310 How can I eject in boot manager running OS X 10.5

In the article, it says that if you press the eject button on the keyboard the disc drive will eject. I must be running an older version of Mac because it looks different than in the pic of the selector, so that is probably why I can't eject the drive. If you know what button to press please reply to me.
Thanks!

Re: How to install any boot manager on Vista at Satellite A300

I want to install second OS on my A300 but can't make any boot manager work with Vista.
IBM os/2 bootmanager can start Vista, but Vista say that it can't execute winload and hang up, Acronis bootmanager does not see any OS at Vista NTFS disk...

You need to do a complete restore.
Ive been working on my own and that was the only way, first go into bios (restart computer push esc right after you restart) go into BIOS, now go to boot, select your hard drive and disable it.
Next restart computer, your restore disk should start may take a minute, let it run until it says you have an error, now restart computer, go back into BIOS turn hard drive on, restart one last time and it should finish takes about an hour or so, any way what I'm saying is 8 out of ten times it's this if you ask a tech they will have you buying thing you do not need because they haven't figured out not everyone is an idiot and fall for their fake remedy for the almighty dollar way to BUSH it up.

It should be like the very first time you synced your phone with I-Tunes. It will notice you haven't synced before and just copy everything from your phone into I-Tunes. It shouldn't delete anything from the phone, at least it never has for me. It just puts a copy of everything into I-Tunes and even if you delete an app for example from your phone and you decide you want it back later, you can just go back into I-Tunes and copy it back over. Hope this helps.

IMac Wont boot, can't unmount, can't reinstall

Hi Community, I'm really hoping you can help me as this one has me stumped.
I have a 2010 (i think, i can't boot it to check) iMac, through a power cut it now won't boot to OS X (Yosemite 10.10)
I have tried to boot it to recovery and can not reinstall, i have 3 partitions
imac
recovery hd
BOOTCAMP
I have tried a disk repair on the iMac partition which is greyed out and it says it can not repair it and i should back up my files and reinstall. Here comes the tricky part no matter how i boot the mac to Disk Utility i can not remove the old partitions, i get the error that the drive can not be unmounted no matter what i do, i have tried from external HD, USB flash and from internet recovery.
If i boot to window the machine starts fine and i can see windows, and i can then see the iMac drive listed in windows. Ive tried PRAM/NVRAM resets, when OS X does try to start the progress bar gets to about half way and then the machine just sits there at that.
Is there anyway i can boot to anything that will stop it from first mounting the drives so i can nuke the partition table and start fresh without having to remove the drive from the drive.
In disk utility if i attempt to mount the iMac partition it reports "Cant Open Drive"
Im not bothered about the bootcamp partition or the existing partitions, i just want to get the iMac running OS X again.

After banging my head against the wall, and Apple suggesting a genius bar appointment to replace the drive (at cost) i have resolved the issue. It was a bit of a hack but might help some one else who has the same problem
1) Boot to Windows (Bootcamp)
2) Go to partition manager in windows.
3) Delete the Apple partitions that are listed in the window.
4) Resize the windows partition, this forces windows to re-write the partition table it would seem
5) Boot to recovery with CMD + R
6) Open disk utility and you will only see the Bootcamp partition and nothing more, you can now unmount it.
7) erase the disk with GUID partition layout, repartioning as required
8) Install OS X from the same recovery instance (i used Internet recovery as i was attempting with USB and Internet)
The above *may work with a USB bootable device.
Hope this helps just 1 person who was stuck and couldn't find a solution in my predicament.

My MacBook Pro has 10.5.8 but came with 10.5.7 install disc and won't boot up and can't reinstall

My MacBook Pro has 10.5.8 but came with 10.5.7 install disc and won't boot up and can't reinstall.
the disc is spinning and I see the apple on the screen with the spinning gear and after a while it just turns off OR the few times it does get past that point when I go into disc utility it tells me that it can not install on this machine!
It's driving me crazy, please help!!!

Welcome to the Apple community.
I'm not entirely sure I follow you here, home sharing comes with iTunes 10.2, so far as I am aware even iTunes 10.6.1 only requires OS X 10.5.8 or better. On that basis I'm not sure why you think you have a problem.

Can I reinstall Windows 7 on Boot Camp with the same product key?

I have run into some issues with my Windows partition, so I want to reinstall Windows 7. I have a genuine copy of Windows 7 Ultimate Edition.
What I wish to do is to completely remove the Boot Camp partition, and then create a new one and install Windows 7 over it. However, I have only 1 product license key. When I reinstall Windows 7, it's going to ask for the product key, whih is obviously going to be denied because I have used it.
Is there any way I can acquire another key for this purpose? I am willing to pay a small fee, but I am definitely not willing to pay the full amount for a new Windows 7 copy.
Furthermore, and a little off-topic: Does anyone know if there are any compatability issues with the Windows 8 dev edition and Boot Camp? Can I use the support software for Windows 7? Will it be able to take advantage of the hardware? Will I get sound and internet? Will I be able to scroll with my trackpad?
Thanks.
[EDIT] I forgot to mention that the main reason I have to create a new partition instead of just Custom Installing over the previous one, is because I require a larger partition size.

Thanks for your help!
Not to be a pain, but I just want to clarify some things.
The hatter wrote:
The retail version can be reinstalled as much as you want, even to a new computer (just not two at same time)
Yes it will activate just fine on reinstall. Not an issue.
Let's assume I do not have issues about reallocating disk space, and just want to re-do my whole partition. Here's what I would do. Please tell me if it would work fine, or if I would hit a snag somewhere:
Have original retail W7 disk at hand (the one I previously used for my first install).
Remove existing partition using Boot Camp Assistant.
Re-install using the said disk.
W7 should activate without a problem, even though I've used the license before.
Do I have to do anything on Windows before re-installing it to "deactivate" the copy (or something along those lines) before I can re-activate successfully on my new install?
And what is System Builder?
Thanks for all your help!

Can someone explain what I am doing wrong? Windows Boot manager error.

Okay, I've literally searched EVERYWHERE and can not find a reasonable answer to this question.
Everytime I try to load windows on bootcamp, I get this error:
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause . to fix problem:
1. insert windows installation disc and restart computer
2.choose your language settings, and then click "next"
if you do not have the disc, contact your system admistrator or computer manufacturer for assistence
status 0xc0000017
And that's it.
I have tried everything from usb to countless 8 gig DVD which I wasted from burning the ISO time and time again.
I am doing everything through the bootcamp installer and I partition up to 80 gigs of space of my hard drive for it.
This is an official iso image from windows btw.
I think it's a memory problem, but I am not sure. Here are my specs:
Model Name:          Mac Pro
Model Identifier:          MacPro5,1
Processor Name:          Quad-Core Intel Xeon

If you can shoot me some advice on what I may be doing wrong, please do. I really need it urgently.
Thanks!

you really are way too low on memory, but that is not the issue.
all the other hard drives need to be pulled except one.
bumbing is sort of like there are only so many people likely to read and try to help. give us a couple hours or more.
you say Windows, I ask "which?"
And really all the faq and how to and even guide should cover your bases.
Can only guess that the media you used to burn DVD or source.. see, we are not mind readers, some buy System Builder, or buy as a ISO download and burn to DVD... so start with the FAQs.

I have an iMac G4 PowerPC with OS 10.5.? The OS10.5.8 update failed. Now get blue screen and error-can't find Intel Power Manager. What now??

I have an iMac G4 PowerPC with OS 10.5.? After deleting 17G of music files to make room on the 74G drive, The iPhoto and iWeb updates seemed to load okay, but the OS 10.5.8 update failed - message opened said the computer encountered an error and must shut down. Now I get the blue screen. Startup with 'V' pressed shows multiple lines saying: error-can't find IntelCPU Power Manager. What now?? I reset PRAM, I think.....?????

I am concerned that you might have applied a system updated intended for an Intel iMac, while you have a PPC (non-Intel) iMac. Your PPC OS should not be looking for an "IntelCPU Power Manager."
Have you tried booting from the 10.5 install DVD/CD and repairing the hard drive, plus repairing permissions?
If you done the repairs mentioned above, and your problem still persists, you can also try doing a safe boot. (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455 ) Then, if none of these things worked, if I were in your shoes (it's hard to diagnose these things without being there in person) I would first check that there is adequate disk space, then I would boot from the 10.5 DVD/CD install disk and reinstall the operating system. There is an option to do an archive and install preserving user files/settings, that would be the option you want, as it will save your files but install a new OS. Make sure you have a good backup of your files first. If you do not have one, use "target mode" to copy all your files before embarking on an new OS install. Assuming that you do succeed with this install, then use Software Update to get the right updates for your iMac.

Windows 8.1 not booting : "Boot manager failed to find OS loader"

Hello all,
I know this question came up before, but I have being trying to fix this for many days now, without luck and I feel I need some new ideas...
The short story:
My Windows 8.1 is not booting, and gets trapped in cycle of Boot Manager until I tell the UEFI to boot from disk or USB
I can boot up from external CD or USB Windows RE, from which I can get to prompt line
In the log file in C:\Windows\System 32\LogFiles\Srt\SrtTrail.txt I read:
Boot manager failed to find OS loader
Repair Action File Repair à Failed (err code 0x4001)
Repair Action Boot Config Data Store Repair à Failed (err code 0x2)
4. My disk is GPT partitioned, with UEFI Bios
5. I tried the typical Bootrec commands: FixMbr, FixBoot, ScanOs, RebuildBCD but I always get the error:
Identified Windows install:0
6. I tried Bcdedit but I get:
the boot configuration data (BCD) store could not be opened
7. I tried to create a new BCD store in the FAT32 partition (temporarily named "v:\") with
bcdboot c:\Windows /l en-gb /s v: /f ALL
but I get:
Failure when attempted to copy boot files
8. Finally, I noticed that in
C:\Windows\System32\
I DO NOT have the file winload.efi
while in: ESP\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\
I DO have the file Bootmgfw.efi
One question I have is: Is it possible to copy a "healthy" winload.efi from somewhere in my PC into C:\Windows\System32\ ?
Where (which path) could I find it?
Any other ideas? Please help !!!!
Many thanks!! This is literarily driving me crazy because I really don't want to reinstall windows....

I have Satellite P100 (PSPAD), and my cd/dvd drive (I dont know how or when) suddenly disappeard, it does not appear in my computer or device manager,
I tried this but coul not find the lowerfilters so i delite the upperfilter and restart the computer but that did not work.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Caution There can be many instances of the registry subkey that is mentioned in step 2.
You must make sure that you are in the appropriate registry subkey before modifying the UpperFilters and the LowerFilters values.
To verify that you are in the appropriate registry subkey, make sure that the Default data value is DVD/CD-ROM and the Class data value is CDROM.
3. In the right pane, right-click UpperFilters, and then click Delete.
4. Click Yes to confirm the removal of the UpperFilters registry entry.
5. In the right pane, right-click LowerFilters, and then click Delete.
6. Click Yes to confirm the removal of the LowerFilters registry entry.
7. Exit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.

Hi guys
Just one question;
Are you able to boot from the bootable disk like Toshiba recovery disk, Windows XP CD, Vista DVD or Linux live CD???
If yes, then you should try to reinstall the OS.
If not then this would mean that the CD/DVD drive malfunctions.
*@BlackJack_1*
You said the CD/DVD drive has been recognized by BIOS.
Do you see the whole CD/DVD drive title/name or you can see just the CD/DVD drive option.
You should also test if you can boot from one of the mentioned disk and to ensure that this is not a hardware issue!

How Can you reinstall Photoshop Elements12 to a computer that its was there but loss it after installing windows 8.1

How Can you reinstall Photoshop Elements12 to a computer that its was there but loss it after installing windows 8.1

Reinstalling Mavericks depends on several factors:
if you erased your recovery partition
what OS originally came on your Mac.
I'll assume you don't have a backup available that you made before your mishap, because you didn't mention it.
That's really the take home message here: have a backup!
If you still have your recovery partition:
boot into the recovery partition (command R at restart)
use the recovery partition to reinstall Mavericks. see: OS X: About OS X Recovery
if you do not still have your recovery partition, then it depends on whether your Mac originally came with installer disks or not.
If it originally came with installer disks, you would boot from the installer disks, erase your HD, and then reinstall the OS that is on the installer disks, and then upgrade as necessary until you get to Mavericks.
If your mac did not originally come with installer disks, but you managed to erase your recovery partition, then you can try to boot into internet recovery (option-command-R at restart), and use internet recovery to erase your HD and reinstall the OS that originally came with your computer, and then upgrade to Mavericks if you need to. See: Hands on with Mountain Lion's OS X Recovery and Internet Recovery | Macworld
(the reference refers to ML but it applies just as well to Mavericks).

Satellite L650-10H - Multiple Win 7 entries in boot manager

I have Toshiba Satellite L650-10H and i recently reinstalled my Win 7 64-bit.
There is no problem at all except that at the notebook start i get this [http://tinypic.com/r/se7uja/6] .
3 Win 7 entries in the boot manager
I have to always choose the first one and everything is fine.
Its like the old copy of win didnt remove although a i have formated the discs...
Is there any option to get rid of it?
I dont mind reinstalling again if i know it will help .

> Just wonder if i remove the program after i made the changes, will it stay or it will pop up again at startup?
No, the changes will stay.
> And the second problem is that it solved my problem just partially.
>I would like to somehow remove the 2 copies of Win that i dont need if it is possible.
>This program just "hide" them.
I assume you installed both OS on different partitions right?
In such case just remove/delete the partition where the other Win 7 systems are installed.
You can do that in Disk Management (right click on My Computer -> Manage -> Disk Management)
