Microsoft Vista support

HI all,
Does anyone know the thinking on support for running JInitiator and OAS middleware on Microsoft Vista? Our company is an early adopter for this MS release and we're very skeptical about how this will affect our Oracle Applications and DIscoverer users.
We're going to test, but would prefer not to run in an uncertified mode even if it seems to work. However, as users purchase new machines, there will be no choice but to get the new Windows OS.

Interesting - the only difference I can see, apart from the download locations, is that I have the CLASSID as
CAFEEFAC-0014-0002-0006-ABCDEFFEDCBA
which I think is the same as it was for 1.4
From memory, I think I uninstalled 1.4 and downloaded and installed 1.5 'manually' from the Sun web site, rather than allowing the browser to load it, so the download locations in my cfg might not be 100%.
This is the relevant section in my cfg
# Page displayed to users to allow them to download Sun's Java Plugin.
# Sun's Java Plugin is typically used for non-Windows clients.
# (NOTE: you should check this page and possibly change the settings)
jpi_download_page=http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.5.0_09/index.html
# Parameter related to the version of the Java Plugin

Nsu news: Microsoft Vista support RESTORED! (9.7.0...

Hi all,
we have just received the following information from the Nokia Software Update team:
Microsoft Vista support temporarily removed
Support for Microsoft Vista has temporarily been removed from the Nokia Software Updater. This is due to recent changes in certain Microsoft Vista configurations that cause the Nokia Software Updater to become unstable. Other Microsoft Operating Systems are not affected. Support will be reintroduced as soon as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

I wrote all my posts from 2005-2011 as an "Admin" for this community. I still work for Nokia as an external consultant, so my rank in all posts is now "Employee".

I really think this sucks pretty much. - This is bad customer service. Of course softwareissues will show up once in a while, this is fragile technology and we have to accept that, but when something like this happens, I expect Nokia to come with some sort of statement Asap.
Are there like half a billion vista users or more i the world? And 1 in 3 cellphones are a nokiaphone. And there are like 2 cellphones per human beeing in this world in average. Hmmm, at some point, if I've done my math correctly, you will come across someone who has a nokia phone and vista on their computer. Hello, did you think we wouldn't notice it?
Yes, my N95 8 gb device "died" while updating the firmware a little while ago, and guess what? - there where no warnings from nokia anywhere even though i red in different forums outside nokia that this issue had been known for a while. And that they had called nokia servicedesk and sent mails...
pfff... this is just great.

Creative's Vista support is so bad - My horrible experience

All,?Have used Creative products for years, but how they are handling Vista is bordering on criminal. I do not understand how they basically tell good customers to take a hike with such terribly bad Vista support. Here is my story:?Using my SB Li've card in XP. Works GREAT!? Fantastic card, no problems. Not that old of a card either. Seems Creative will not be making Vista drivers for it. WHY??So go and buy a Audigy SE card. Plug in, can not get to work. Find there is no Vista driver.
Go out and buy a X-Fi Extreme Audio card, as I saw there was a Vista driver for it. Get home, find out that is not true, only for 32bit, not 64bit.
Wait, find this section. Find the Audigy SE has a beta Vista driver, whoops only 32bit again.
Vista (released version) has been out for several months (I have had my Microsoft Developers Network Release Canidate running now for well over a month). And beta's have been out forever.
There is NO excuse for a company as big as Creative not to have drivers working and ready for all current cards, and fairly recent cards (like SB Li've) by at least the public release date. None at all.
Funny thing, plugged in the built in sound module on my DFI nF4 SLI-DR motherboard (I kept it unplugged while I used the SB Li've card). Booted Vista, and drivers loaded without my doing a thing!? Works fine...

I'm on the side of Creative Labs here, and I'll say what they're probably thinking as they desperately work to get things up to speed for us. For starters, I assumed that if you chose to be one of the first to purchase Windows Vista (like myself), you were prepared to undergo a rocky compatibility period with some of your hardware, and were willing to wait it out. After numerous new versions of Windows....well hell, I figured?we all have come to expect this kind of thing at first launch. I guess I was wrong.
Secondly, I assumed that if you chose to be one of the first to purchase Windows Vista, but you were NOT prepared to undergo a rocky compatibility period with some of your hardware, than you would have perused this website's news, forums, drivers page, etc. for a little while?after the Vista release date to verify that everything?is?going to work?the way you "need" it to before you even put that Vista installation DVD in your dri've. And third....you consumers aren't working in the Creative Labs office. You've never attended their meetings. You've never been in on exactly how much work goes into keeping communication going with Microsoft, and you?dam sure don't know exactly what has to go into making these sound cards work with the types of Directsound changes that Microsoft has made. Don't sit there remotely from your apartment and tell a Creative Labs employee what they've been doing with THEIR time since they got the final info from Microsoft they needed to get to work on the new drivers. You say "fix it!" They say "we're working on it." What the hell else do you want?Fourth....don't forget that there are plenty of Creative Labs employees who have home computers with creative labs hardware in them, and those employees want their stuff working just as much as you. So here's your solution if this compatibility issue is really slowing down your life. Uninstall Vista. Put your XP back on. Enjoy your fully functional sound just the way you had it and meanwhile, keep checking back here periodically for updates on their progress. CL and CL mods.... I trust you. You've been around for years and you've offered up excellent hardware and software for as many OS's as I can remember. I'm not an expert in your field, so I'm not going to sit here, like some, and conjure up some self-gratifying scenario in my head of you guys doing piss poor work when I don't know jack about what it takes to get up to speed, especially if Microsoft has had you switching gears up until November. Your track record speaks for itself. You've always provided the best in sound. Guys, give CL a break. They've earned their stripes. In the meantime, go back to XP or thank them for the beta drivers and the EAX workaround. They did it for YOU. P.S. But Creative...just one thing. For now on, could you try to make your list of drivers and software updates for each card a little less confusing on the drivers pages? The XP driver/softwares sections are a mess! <img height="6[/img] width="6" src="http://forums.creative.com/i/smilies/6x6_smiley-wink.gif">

Is there a version of InDesign that I could use on Microsoft Vista?

I would like to use Adobe InDesign to create flyers and other various marketing documents. However, the most recent version is not available for Microsoft Vista. Is there somewhere I could download or trial InDesign that allows me to use it on Vista?

CS6 was supported under Vista. You can download the trials here:

Verizon Iobi with Microsoft Vista

I've had Verizon iobi for 2yrs. I recently installed Microsoft vista on my computer. When I sign in into my iobi desktop client software it keeps crashing also ran the program in "Compatibility Mode". Right click on the IOBI client icon, select Properties > Compatibility, and then click on the check box to run it in compatibility Mode (I left it default to Windows XP SP2 mode), and it still doesn't work. Can anyone help me.
Thank in advance.

I think it will be sooner than that. Adobe has targeted 2nd
quarter 07
several times now....

Does JRun4 offer Vista support

Hi,
We are going to be upgrading some of our office computers
with newer Dell PC's, as they come bundled with Vista i'm wondering
will a JRun 4 application server work in Vista for our development
team? I notice that it isn't officially supported but is there any
reason why JRun wouldn't work in Vista?
Any help is much appreciated

I just switched to Microsoft Vista as well and was wondering
if JRun 4 will work. Can someone please verify this?
I installed the base version seemingly without any problems.
I then tried applying Update 6 and it no longer allows me to
specify the installation directory. It instead defaults to
c:\opt\JRun4 without the option to change it.

Studio 8 with Microsoft Vista??

I am looking to upgrade from Studio MX to Studio 8. I was
also planning on purchasing a new PC once Microsoft Vista is
released. I was wondering if Studio 8 would work with Vista or is
Adobe going to release a 64bit version? Does anyone know if Adobe
plans to release a new Studio version in the near future?

I think it will be sooner than that. Adobe has targeted 2nd
quarter 07
several times now....

Installing and Running Oracle 10g Express Edition on Microsoft Vista

My computer is running on Microsoft Vista.
I downloaded Oracle 10g Express Edition for Vista.
I ran the setup.exe. Everything went well there.
But, when I open the SQLPlus program, a window prompts me to enter my username, password and host string.
Can someone please tell me what it is expecting for these fields? I am using the same username and password I used to create my Oracle account.
But what is the host string?
Appreciate it.
Thanks.

This may help

No longer can view pdf files in IE8 on Microsoft Vista

For some time we have been unable to read any pdf files from the internet. I have Microsoft Vista, My wife has Windows 7. Both are running IE 9.A reinstall attempt just says latest version already installed and stope. Once a pdf file is referenced, the IE is also locked up and has to be stopped using the windows task manager. What, if any, remedy exists?

And this lockup happens on both systems?
For Reader 10.1.10, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

Webutil not working on Microsoft Vista

Dear All,
We have migrated the application from froms 6i to 10g and evrything was working fine when we were testing on the XP but when we tested it on Vista webutil didnt work it started giving java errors.
We have done the following change in the application configuration file after that the application started running on the Vista but the webutil java errors are still coming.
baseHTMLJInitiator=basejpi.htm
We know JInitiator doesnot work on vista therefore using the above configuration.
Thanks In Advance.
Regards,
Ankur

For Vista support and WebUtil to work this is what you probably need:
- Forms Services / OAS 10.1.2.3.0
- run Forms with JRE 1.6.0_10+ on the client (there are a few issues with this version which may include show stoppers depending on your deployment - just search in this forum)
- WebUtil patch 7323114 - this is not yet publicly available on Metalink. You need to open a service request on metalink and ask for the patch to get it mailed to you by Oracle support. Depending on other one-off patches you might have installed you may have to request a merge-patch. Let Oracle support help you with that.

When downloading 10.5.2 version of itunes to Microsoft Vista 32 bit it gets to 68% downloaded and hangs then eventuall times out. No error msg given. What is it waiting for?

When downloading 10.5.2 version of itunes to Microsoft Vista 32 bit it gets to 68% downloaded and hangs then eventuall times out. No error msg given. What is it waiting for?

Finally got it working, I had to delete two solitary files in an iTunes folder.
C:\ProgramData\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC Info
Delete the only two files that are in this folder. Please note that it is a hidden folder.
After they have been deleted, iTunes should work (it did for me)
This may not work if your iTunes.exe process (viewable with task manager) turns off after the license agreement. I solved that problem by updating quicktime.
iTunes 10.5.2 doesn't update quicktime like all the previous installers did.

Sun Java Vista support

Does 1.5 update 11 is supported on Windows Vista?
I went through release notes and found there are few bug fixes related to Vista!!
But the system configuration i not updated for Vista support.

I agree.
But there so such official announcment/document/link that says 1.5 update 11 works well with Vista. Atleast i have not came across.
The best place for this is to check system configuration link.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/system-configurations.html
And Vista is not listed there.
But few links (not from Sun website though) mention that update 11 will have support for Vista.
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/chet/archive/2006/10/java_on_vista_y.html
So i want to make sure it does supports or not.

What happened to Microsoft Product Support Reporting Tool?

I was looking to examine the health of the Active Directory setup that I have inherited at my new position. I was going to download the Microsoft Product Support Reporting Tool to run some tests, but all of the links I could find are broken.
It seems to have been excized from the Microsoft website. The information page as well as direct download links are all missing.
I have searched for information relating to its retirement but found nothing.
Has this tool been removed permanetly? Is there a place I can get the last supported version?
Thanks
Derek
