Win XP Media Center Ed. & Adobe Reader 9.4/9.4.1 Updts Lock Up & Reader X 10.0.1 Install Question

What is the deal with Win XP Media Center Edition and Updates to Adobe Reader? I have been unable to install Adobe Reader Updates 9.4 & 9.4.1 to Win XP Media Center Edition (32 bit - SP3) since last October!!! The update starts to install and then locks up when it starts trying to Remove Shortcuts! I have had to kill the update and then Adobe Reader does not function after that. I have had to go back and run a System Restore for a date & time prior to the attempted update install, to get Adobe Reader working again.
I was going to try uninstalling Adobe Reader 9.3.4 and installing the latest Adobe Reader version X (10.0.1) - until I read the System Requirements. Only Win XP Home, Professional & Tablet PC Edition with Service Pack 3 (32 bit) are mentioned as valid operating systems. Does this mean that version X (10.0.1) can't be installed on Windows XP Media Center Edition (32 bit) with SP3 installed???
Any help/info that you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

You're correct. Clean uninstall i referred to meant clean up every single trace of Adobe Reader in your program files, in your registry, in your application data folder, etc. CClearner is a good one. Apart from using it for cleaning up web and windows temp files, did you try to use their Registry fix feature?
What I am trying to say is that you should:
-Uninstall Adobe
-Clear up any trace left by the program
-Clear up Temp folder
-Run Registry fix
-Restart the computer
-Reinstall the Adobe
That's all i can say. I am not saying that this will work for sure. It is just one of many resolution for you. Good luck!

Touchsmart Iq506t Windows 7, Unable to acess s-video input from windows media center.

System: Hp Touchsmart IQ506T
Windows 7
Avermedia (A327) Hybrid mini Pcie Tv Tuner (NTSC/ATSC)
I purchase this system used without an operating system. I installed windows 7 and downloaded the drivers from Hp. All drivers are installed properly and the Avermedia (A327) mini card driver can be seen in device manager.
Yet, the A327 tv tuner will not give me access to the s-video input. I can get tv thru the rf connection but I want to use the s-video because it has a cleaner signal.
Any information about the s-video port will be appreciated..
Thank you..

Hi Cnmarsh,
I understand you are having an issue with the Touchsmart Iq506t with Windows 7, unable to access s-video input from Windows Media Center.
I read from your post that drivers are installed properly and the Aver media mini card drivers are seen in device manager.
I was wondering if the any of the drivers in Device Manager have a Yellow caution?
Also, is the Touchsmart Iq506t software all up to date?
You could try to download and run HP PC Hardware Diagnostics tool with this link.

PE5 add-in for Vista Media Center

I upgraded from PE$ -> 5 a while ago and noticed that I lost the media center icon for photoshop elements.
How do I get this to work with PE5? I see the Digital Home files and have done a uninstall and re-install of the app already..
Thanks

PSE 5 does work under Vista Home Premium.
What is the media center icon?

Why does my laptop have problems with USB card reader?

I have a PowerBook G4, and I connect a multi-slot card reader to a USB port to read CompactFlash media. I have two problems with it and wonder if anyone can help.
1) When I "eject" the media, then physically remove the media from the card reader, I occasionally get a "Media not removed properly" alert message. I always wait several seconds after the media icon has disappeared from the desktop before removing the media. I can't seem to reproduce this on demand, but it appears to be happening more frequently.
2) Once the media has been removed from the card reader, the computer no longer recognizes it when it is reinserted into the card reader. I have to unplug the card reader from the USB port, then plug it back before the media is recognized.
Any ideas how to resolve these issues?

1) Wait longer. It can sometimes be necessary to wait as long as 15 seconds. I've never seen a good explanation of why.
2) Are you plugging the reader directly into a USB port on the Powerbook? Are any other bus-powered USB devices connected simultaneously? If so, disconnect them and test again. If you have an AC-powered USB hub available (or can borrow one), try plugging that into the computer and the reader into the hub. (Don't use a bus-powered hub.)

HP Media Center m7050y (PX153AV) CTO Desktop PC driver for card reader in windows 7

I have a HP Media Center m7050y (PX153AV) CTO Desktop PC that I've upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit. I'm trying to get my card readers driver. Is there one specifically for Windows 7, or is there one that worked with previous Windows editions that I should use?

PMurnane, welcome to the forum.
Since there are no Product Specifications for the computer, I don't know the brand of the card reader. Here is a driver for the Realtek card reader. If it doesn't work, let me know the brand of it.

HP8730w Ricoh Media Driver 2.10.00.04 no longer works in 5-1 memory card reader

Ricoh Media driver 2.10.00.04 no longer works on 5-1 memory card reader. Re-installed Ricoh Media Driver 2.10.00.04 from HP Support Center HP Elitebook 8730w Mobile Workstation software download page. No change. Card reader does not function. Put memory card in HP Elitebook 8440w, and it's 5-1 card reader reads it okay. So the memory card is fine. I suppose I need an updated driver. Need Help!!!    Thank you.

What version of iPhoto do you have? With Yosemite you must be running iPhoto 9.6.1 which is a available from the App Store. If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll have to download and apply the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 to the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.6.1. It'll be located in the Applications/Utilities folder after downloading.
Now for your system:
Startup Items: ℹ️
    ChmodBPF: Path: /Library/StartupItems/ChmodBPF
    Startup items are obsolete in OS X Yosemite
Either remove this or update it so it's compatible with Yosemite.
Get rid of the antivirus software as rkaufmann87 mentioned. It's not needed.

Currently you're not having any memory problems since your Page-outs are essentially non existent. You can check it as you work with Activity Monitor.

As long as the memory pressure is in the green and constant and you're not seeing a lot of SWODs you shouldn't be concerned about the memory. Of course increasing memory will nearly always improve general system and application performance. But you didn't mention slowness as part of your problem.

USB and Media Card Reader disabled after installing DM

I installed the DM 4.3 from the CD tonight. Hooked up the BB and everything worked fine. Loaded some music onto the media card and downloaded some pictures. Then I unhooked to see if the music was on the Blackberry, when I hooed it back up, it wouldn't recognize. I tried a few times, then uninstalled the software, re-installed, still nothing, then un-installed and downloaded 4.7 and installed, still nothing, now my computer doesn't recognize ANY USB ports (web-cam, Media Center Remote) and none of the Media Card reader drives are visible in My Computer. When I insert the SD card from my camera, nothing. I uninstalled 4.7 and still nothing. Now I'm worried..
Please tell me that I don't have to wipe the whole computer and start again.. Please!!

Problems w/ TV Tuner Card and Media Center

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem:
I just installed the FX5200 TDR-128, with the TV@nywhere card, and the Media Center Deluxe II. I can't get the tv stations to work in MCD II. It works great with MSI PVS software that came with the TV Tuner card. When I go into the "Watch TV" menu of MCD II, it brings up the tv screen but it is all garbled or sometimes a blue screen. I changed all the settings to the appropriate formats and it even has the channels that were scanned in the MSIPVS program. Does anyone know what is causing the channels to not work in the Media Center Deluxe II? Also there is a switch on the VIVO connector that has two settings "Safe" and "Work" what does this switch do? I can't find anything on it in the manual that came with the video card.
P.S. The remote works great.

CPU: AthlonXP 2400+

T420s 4-in-1 media card reader adapter problem

I'm wondering if any other T420s owners have had this problem with the media card reader.
Until about two weeks ago, the laptop was working fine, or so I thought. I usually put the laptop to sleep mode instead of shutting it down completely just to speed up boot process. Then, two weeks ago, I tried shutting it down completely. It got all the way to the "shutting down" screen but it would not completely turn off unless I hold down the power button.
It took a while for me to figure out that the media card reader was preventing it from completely shutting down -- even after restoring it to factory settings. Hardware manager recognizes the controller. It also recognizes the card reader if an SD card is inserted but would not assign a drive letter to the reader (i.e., I cannot read the card).
This is what I've tried:
1. Uninstalled and re-installed the drivers for the smart card reader and the controller. That didn't work.
2. Restored the laptop to factory settings. That didn't work.
3. Uninstalled and deleted the drivers for the smart card reader and the controller, then downloaded and installed the latest drivers from the Lenovo website after restoring the laptop to factory settings. That didn't work.
The only common thing in the process is this: the laptop would not shut down completely if there is an SD card in the reader. I initially suspected that it was the SD card itself but I've tried it with four different SD cards and the results were all the same -- it would not shut down if the card was inserted. While displaying that "shutting down" screen, it will shut down immediately after I pull out the SD card, even if it's been hanging in that state for minutes.
I suspect that it is the card reader itself that's causing the problem, and that I need to have it replaced (the laptop is still under warranty). However, I thought I'd seek the advice of the experts out there and find out what their thoughts are.
Thanks.
Solved!

Just took it to an authorized service center in Gaithersburg, MD (about 10 minutes from my office). I hope it's simply a matter of replacing the card reader.
BTW, 4-in-1 reader doesn't mean much. It's just an SD, SDHC, SDXC and MMC reader. Pretty much the same form factor. Now if it can read both SD and CF cards, I'll be really happy (my DSLR uses CF).
Thanks to everyone who offered advice. I'll post the service center's findings when I get my laptop back.
Good luck!!!
Yeah I have/had the same problem I have a DSLR that uses both CF xD, my HP notebook mulitcard reader reads xD, SD (4GB), but no CF. CF is a big card so I can see that as a problem on some notebooks. However I also have a camera using the Memory Stick Pro and it goes into the same slot on my HP but as you said. Lenovo's reader is only supporting the SD series which is a bummer. I still have to use an external reader for two other cameras.

Cheap graphics card for a media center PC

so i traded some hardware teh other day, and got an asus m2n68 board that i started building a media center pc with. now my idea was to use xbmc and mythtv. now as it turns out, mythtv is a little more involved to setup than i expected, i haven't even managed to get my tv tuner working yet, so thats one issue
the other thing, the main thing anyhow, is it turns out the xbmc performance is terrible with the nouveau driver, so i'm thinking about getting a cheap radeon 4350 since as far as i know, they'll do audio over hdmi so i can run a single cable from the box to my tv. my question here now is if anyone has any experience with the radeonhd drivers and these cards, even maybe with xbmc? i just don't want to go out and spend the money to find out it doesn't work any better than what i had performance wise. really just want to know if the radeonhd drivers are working 100% with the 4350 or not

yes, absolutely, for standard playback, the integrated chipset was good. the problem was XBMC doesn't seem to work well with the nouveau driver, even trying to browse menu's was super choppy, took like 10-20 seconds everytime you press down in a menu for example to see the selection change. i could have used nvidia's binary driver, but i've been using nouveau for so long now, and it actually makes my system feel like it has a quad core which the nvidia didn't at the time, maybe nvidia's drivers have improved since then? but at the same time, i'm glad i got the radeon, the XBMC performance is great, and the HDMI hookup for the tv is convienient as well. Also using the vga input on my TV, i kept having to adjust the screen position because its constant autoscan everytime the resolution changed did not get it right, with the hdmi its lined up perfect without having to mess with it. so i think the 50$ for the card and an hdmi cable was worth it

How can I convert the metadata tags on my mp4s to xml files so that they can be read in Windows Media Center?

I have a library with almost 3000 movies and TV shows that I have fully tagged. However, I have decided to start using Windows Media Center and it does its metadata tagging through XML files. I wanted to know if anyone could tell me if there was a way to extract the metadata from those mp4s and convert them to a format that WMC could read? Thanks!!!!

iTunes can make XML playlists so it might be all you need, I made a simple one file playlist and exported it from iTunes. The result is shown below. In principle I could delete the playlist and the entry from the library, as long as I don't delete the file, then later reimport the XML playlist file. I haven't tested this particular scenario, but I assume that iTunes will read all the properties as listed unless it can read some kind of tag from the file itself in which case the current value of the tag would take precedence.
What I don't know is what media center would make of this file, or what its files look like, however assuming they have a similar structure that can be decoded then it should be possible to read data from the iTunes library and write out a text file that will make sense to media centre.

X200 with 3-1 Media Card Reader w/o modem available?

Hello
Is it possible to configure an x200 wtih the 3-1 Media Card Reader w/o Modem instead of the 5-1 Media Card Reader w/ Modem. Their is only one option for the x200 ( 5-1), however for the x200s the option for either one is available. So if call lenovo would I be able to get the 3-1 instead?
Note from Moderator: Added more descriptive subject.
Message Edited by nonny on 12-19-2008 08:14 PM

I am confused by this as well. I don't quite understand why it gives you the option of 3-1 without modem or 5-1 with modem. You would think the less capable card reader would go with the modem... The price was the same either way on the x200 so I just did 5-1 with modem. Still a bit unclear on Lenovo's part if you ask me.
