VMware wont start after latest kernel update!

Okay when i went to reboot it went to boot into arch but wile it was loading the vmware modules it would stay stuck at loading vm communication interface socket family and would just stay there the only way i could even boot into arch was to edit my grub so i could login and at least comment out vmware i tried to reapply the vmware patch fix that was on the wiki and had no luck also tried reinstalling + reapplying patch after words and still no luck I'm hoping this is happening to someone else as well and not just me (mean i know lol) I also tried virtualbox but seems it has it's own mess of problems as well after latest kernel update.

I have tried rebuilding the the kernel image and even tried reinstalling grub with no luck. After not having a usable system for several days I ended up just having to reinstall and maybe found out more about the problem. Using the net install image and a 64 bit install this time making a EXT2 boot and a root partition of JFS right after install I get a panic during boot about how the system can't find a valid filesystem on what would be root partition. Even when passing the "rootfstype=jfs" to the kernel line in grub it still errors out telling me that it is "Bailing out, your on your own. Good luck!" (pretty funny error messages if you are not ripping your hair out). After that I redid the install this time making a EXT4 root partition and everything is working.
It seems to me that this all points to a problem with JFS on 64 bit systems, my other systems are all 32 bit and usign JFS root just fine... can anyone else confirm this?

I just downloaded the latest Windows updates, now videos online will not work on Firefox but will on other browsers, anyone else having this problem?

After downloading the latest Windows updates I found that I could not play videos on YouTube or at other sites. Switching to other browsers I found I could play those same videos now without any problem. So I did a System Restore to determine if the Windows updates had affected video play using Firefox. The restore point was set to the day before the Windows download occurred. After System Restore was completed I could now play videos using the Firefox browser.
To make sure that the Windows update was the problem, I again downloaded the newest Windows Updates and once again could not play videos on any site using Firefox. System restore was used to again reset my computer to the day before and once again the videos would ow play in the Firefox browser.

Actually your reply took me in another direction and I found this on the Adobe site:
The RealPlayer extension for Firefox, Downloading & Recording, has compatibility issues with Flash Player 11.3. If RealPlayer is installed Flash Player content does not appear. YouTube provides an error message when you try to watch a video.
As a workaround, do the following:
Start RealPlayer.
Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper-left corner and select Preferences.
Select Download & Recording in the left menu and deselect Enable Web Download & Recording for These Installed Browsers option.
Click OK and restart Mozilla Firefox.
Once I followed this I could now again play videos in Firefox.

Has the latest Windows Update caused your users issues?

Are the prompts you're referring to related to UAC? If so, that can be adjusted. Anyways, I haven't had a single issue with any of the machines that have been updated this week. This goes for Win 8.1 and Win 7 machines. :)

Since Wednesday I've had 3 different Remote Salesmen (Surface Pro 2 users) report that their computers have either crashed or have been giving annoying prompts for any program they've tried to run. Probably not related but a Windows 7 Pro user randomly mentioned that their USB ports stopped working after an update. On the Surface users I noticed each had a Windows Update installed on 7/14.
Has anyone experienced an uptick in Surface tablets or Windows 7 Pro workstations since the latest Windows update?

Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

Can I not download iTunes if I do not have the latest Windows Update

Can I not download iTunes if I do not have the latest Windows Update?

IE11 not working after latest Windows Updates when viewing Project Online sites

Ever since the latest Windows Updates rolled out a few weeks ago we cannot get Internet Explorer 11 to work with our
Project Online sites at 365. We tried putting it into compatibility mode but then it runs painfully slow. Is Microsoft aware of this problem? Our workaround is to use Chrome --- which is really ironic, right? To access 365 Project Online
sites we can't use Microsoft's own browser! We have to use Google's --- you have to laugh or else you'd cry.

We tried putting it into compatibility mode but then it runs painfully slow.
Sounds like the site is doing browser User-Agent sniffing. Compatibility mode forces IE7 Quirks mode emulation. So, you may need a more modern emulation (e.g. via the Developer Tools, Emulation tab, F12, Ctrl-8). But the real fix would
be to get the site to stop doing User-Agent sniffing and support all modern browsers.
A usability problem with a Developer Tools override is that it has to be done each time and the DT window has to be left open for the duration of the session. You can report compatibility issues here:
https://www.modern.ie/en-us/compat-issue-report
Then one way or another you may eventually get better usability on that site with IE11.

Help!!!!! Incredimail MY START has taken over my computer!!! How do I get rid of it permanently???? Started with latest Firefox Update

Since the latest Firefox, Incredimail My Start has taken over my computer! I do not have Incredimail, I do not want Incredimail. I want to ENTIRELY get rid of it altogether forever. Please give me the instructions. I cannot find it as an add on or a plug in -- I do not know WHAT it is but whatever it is I DO NOT WANT IT ON MY COMPUTER!
Thanks so much in advance! Please hurry! This is driving me crazy. I have set Google as my home page, but every new tap I add, is Incredimail MyStart. I DO NOT WANT IT. This started with the latest Firefox update.

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
* [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
* [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
* [http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/ Hitman Pro]
* [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
[http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Did this fix your problems?

Aperture wont start , it needs an update and is telling me to log onto a hotmail account that no longer exists so I am stuck .I would even re-purchase aperture just to get up and running again but I cant do that either - help, I need these photographs !

Aperture wont start when I booted up this morning . There is an upgrade that it needs to install and I am being directed to log onto a hotmail account that does not exist to install it . I cant get any sense out of hotmail and the account has been deleted because I have never used it .
I need to get into my files asap but I am just going around in circles - please help - anyone ?

APERTURE was bought via the Apple On Line Store .
I kew there is an update cause when I clicked on updates , there was an update that I needed cause Aperture was not running as it should ie . it would not load
I am running Mavericks OS.
My Apple ID is the same as my email account but I have discovered that I have two Apple ID accounts and I could not remember my password on the one that I used to download the original Aperture - I have since contacted Apple and they have merged the two so Ihave sorted it out that way .
When Aperture would not start , it wasn't asking me to log onto my email account, it was asking me for my Apple ID which was the same thing but it was my emergency ID and I could not remember the password . Being enturely thick where computers are concerned , I got very confused and remain confused because having bought a new MACBOOK AIR , I find it wont recognise my back up hard drive or my AIRPORT so I am not having a great time with MAC products to be honest - cant get my business back up and running after nearly three weeks so Apple and MAC are not my favourite words !
Anyway, I did get it sorted finally by ringing Apple but thanks for replying anyway - it turned out that Aperture was the very least of my problems when my hard drive failed installing Mavericks - wasnt Mavericks fault, my drives have to work hard and it just died .

Win7 BootCamp won't start up after Windows Update

I been using Win7 with Bootcamp for over 8 months now and no problem but last night I shut down with a windows update and this morning it can not start up at all. I just get a black screen. I can select and enter my OSX drive no problem, even access the Boot Volume and copy files off it to my Mac partition also. Holding option key on startup shows my two dirves also. Is there anyway to revert back to old version of Win7 on startup or do I have to reinstall everything again?

Did you let the update complete? or shutdown while some of the update was still to be completed. A lot of it is done and completed after a restart.
Start getting into making sure you have free space, using restore points (you may need to boot from the DVD). You can also rollback an udpate to driver or uninstall.
There are always and will be 2nd Tues of the month critical security update in two days. The only Windows Update I've seen are to Microsoft Security Essentials. Maybe 3rd party issue?
I use CCleaner 3.0 on a daily basis to clean out temp files.
(you are running Windows, Boot Camp, no, that was/is drivers and partitioning tool, nothing else). Do you use a VM also? makes it sound like you might. Updates are best done running Windows natively, that is about as close as I can make it to what people keep referring to as "running Windows on Boot Camp" is just Windows running, not as a guest OS VM.

IE proxy setting is unusable with latest windows update in VM

Latest updates got installed in my VM and I am not able to set proxy anymore.
The issue is that I am able to check the checkbox: Use proxy ... but not able to set a value.
This is blocking bug.
Details:
OS: Windows 8.1
IE version: 11
Please view the attached image to get more info.

Hi Dharshana,
This forum discusses about web development including HTML, CSS and Script for Internet Explorer. So it would be better ask to IE microsoft answer forum since it is related to windows update and IE11.

Safari wont start after Leopard software update

After updating Leopard to 10.5.7, Safari wont start. I get an error message "Cant load Tastyapps AV plugin." or something to that effect.
What gives? anyone know?

I was using Videobox as a trial version (on the site you have the option of buying or trying for 30 days). After the 30 days it stopped working and I just moved it to the trash. I seems to have left something in Safari however that causes it to not want to start.
Using Firefox i was able to go back to the Videobox site and download and install the trial version again. I was then given the option of installing the Safari plug in which i did. I then went to the Videobox menu and clicked on uninstall Safari plugin. and then i just moved videobox to the trash again using AppCleaner.
So, you should be able to do the same thing. Just click on "download" instead of "buy" on the Videobox site. I'm sorry, I couldnt find the plugin files for manual deletion either.
Maybe you should start a new thread and someone will know how to do that.
Thanks!

Why is the latest windows update making iTunes unusable?

The program constantly freezes and won't let me update my iPods. Am I missing an iTunes update or do I have to wait for Windows to fix this?

If you believe the issue is with a Windows update, why would you ask the question on an Apple forum? Contact Microsoft.

How could anyone possibly know? You have provided no details like the version of iTunes on your computer.
Did you check to see what version of iTunes is on your computer?

MBP freezes when it goes to sleep - started with latest OS Update (I think)

Beginning on Friday (I believe it was right after I installed the latest OS Update) my MBP has been locking up when I close the lid. I can tell it's locked up because the screen is still light.
When I open the lid again, the clock is stopped, there is no mouse, and everything is frozen solid. My only solution is to hold down the power button for a reset. I have done this five times since Friday.
What might be happening? And, more importantly, what should I do to try to fix the problem?
Thanks.

After installing or uninstalling a program or after installing a Windows update requiring a reboot, I lose Firefox and have to reboot a second time.

Am running VistaSP2 on a Dell E520 with a Kaspersky based AV program. Ever since I installed the latest version of Firefox I find that when I install or uninstall a new app (e.g. Adobe Acrobat X Pro, Skype, Windows Messenger, etc.) or when I install an update from any source that requires a reboot, I find that Firefox will not start. Even the UAC confirmation window will not open. I have to perform a second reboot to be able to open Firefox. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it and it does not help.

Which is it, hanging or crashing, or both?
