N97/Windows 7/ Vista Music problems

Hi all hope someone can help
I have a laptop running Windows 7 a PC running Vista and the N97, I got a couple of tracks from the Nokia music store and not one of these gadgets are able to play the music. When I try to play the songs Vista crashes all the time while the phone and the laptop go into a loop of aquiring license but never quite seem to manage.
Is there something am missing?
Cheers

Hi edmundgall,
As you said there are few of our forum members facing issue in using OVI Suite with Windows 7.  Officially NOS 2.0.1.35 was not compatible with Windows 7, but few customers are saying in our forums, they dont have any issues with Windows 7.  After listening to our forum members like, we expect that NOKIA will start supporting Windows 7 officially from its next Nokia OVI Suite release onwards.  Keep your fingers crossed.  Its not only slowly people will migrate to Windows 7, so it should be in supported Operating System list of NOS 2.0

  • Windows 7, nokia music problem

    Hi everyone,
    i have used "nokia music" before, but since i installed Windows 7 in my laptop, i havent been able to make the program to recognize my phone. i have already tried to update driver, but it says i have the latest driver available. Still when i open nokia music and i select the phone icon on the left, the only thing i can see is the watermark with the usb cablethat asks me to connect a device......
    any help will be appretiated
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Windows 7 is not yet officially supported by Nokia Music, so if it has worked it is more by good luck than judgement.
    PC Suite has recently become 7-compatible, so I expect other Nokia apps will follow suit, but remember that the OS is still very new - once a new WIndows is launched, all companies that produce software need to catch up.

    Okay i had to install Itunes onto my new OS because window's Vista messed up on me and i can't get any of my old purchases back from my account such as music and movies any ideas on how to get them back (i do not have the folder that contains old items from the last itunes or anything from that OS because it had a virus and i just wanted windows 7)

    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    Hi Rodney
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    This sounds like one of those "oddities", contributed to by a few sources.
    I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
    Wondering if you disabled the Safari Cache would the refresh function work correctly? As a test you can disable the Safari Cache by Emptying the Cache first via the Safari menu, then Quit Safari. Now go to the Finder>Your User Library>Caches>Safari. Single click on the Safari folder, then Apple Key + I to open Info panel. There, check the "locked" box. This prevents further additions to the cache. The downside, you lose your ability to upload images etc. within Safari (my cache is disabled, so I use Firefox for the uploads).
    Then restart Safari. Try the PDF from within Safari.

    You may select how and whether Firefox updates, although like most software it may be sensible to keep it up-to-date, it is more likely to remain secure and compatible with other software whilst up to date.

  • Guide: Optimizing Your Windows XP/Vista Notebook

    purpose:
    to build a highly optimized, personalized, faster, smaller and more secure OS installation using windows xp (can use vista also but this guide will not cover it in any detail)
    plus i was bored to tears
    information:
    this is a somewhat advanced guide not meant for those unfamilure with the tools and techniques used here
    the basics of this guide can be applied to most/all windows xp/vista notebooks and desktops, not just Lenovo, however in my case i run windows xp pro on a T60 (8743) with an add-on graphics card (similar to a T60p i assume) and this guide will be geared toward this config.
    many alterations can be made, so it is very general in nature and should not be taken literally
    this is my personal machine and i am not on a private network. you may have to adjust as necessary.
    disclaimer:
    it ain't my fault
    what will you gain:
    * a highly customized OS
    * faster boot times
    * more free disk space
    * a lighter, snappier feeling OS
    * a more secure OS
    * a more stable OS
    * more free RAM
    * less problems (or maybe more if you're not careful)
    with all due respect to Lenovo, i have found that the less Lenovo software i install the fewer glitches i have and the faster things run. this is often the case for various other hardware vendors that supply proprietary software which is often not needed, or not all of which is needed.
    what you will need: (all free, except for possibly the OS):
    * a windows xp/vista installation disk. though you may be able to do this using your i386 directory (perhaps on the recovery partition), a full, non-OEM disk is preferred.
    * SP2 and SP3 (it is my understanding that either SP1 or SP2 should be installed before installing SP3, though i have built installations with SP3 only).
    * dotNet runtime
    * nLite (or vLite for vista) - http://www.nliteos.com/
    * Ryan's Windows XP Post-SP3 Update Pack - http://www.ryanvm.net/msfn/
    * Ryan's integration tool - http://integrator.siginetsoftware.com/index.php?do​wnload
    * all current drivers for your hardware
    please read any license agreements for the above (for instance, nLite is not to be used for commercial applications)
    also visit the nLite and RyanVM forums as there's a ton of helpful info there, add-on packs, etc., and please consider donating to them both if you like the software. both are great guys. i wouldn't bother running windows anymore without nLite. from Nuhi's page (his english is not the best):
    Have you ever wanted to remove Windows components like Media Player, Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, MSN Explorer, Messenger...
    How about not even to install them with Windows ?
    nLite is a tool for pre-installation Windows configuration and component removal at your choice. Optional bootable image ready for burning on media or testing in virtual machines.
    With nLite you will be able to have Windows installation which on install does not include, or even contain on media, the unwanted components.
    Features
    * Service Pack Integration
    * Component Removal
    * Unattended Setup
    * Driver Integration *
    * Hotfixes Integration **
    * Tweaks
    * Services Configuration
    * Patches ***
    * Bootable ISO creation
    basic build procedure:
    * install the dotNet runtime
    * install nLite (or vLite for vista)
    * create a directory structure something like:
    c:\nlite\source\
    c:\nlite\working\
    c:\nlite\sp\
    c:\nlite\hotfix\
    * download Ryan's post SP3 update pack and dump it in c:\nlite\hotfix\
    * download Ryan's integration tool and dump in c:\nlite\hotfix\ 
    note that you can use nLite to integrate service packs and hotfix's, but i prefer Ryan's tool as i have had problems in the past using nLite to integrate Ryan's post SP update cabs, though this happened during the earlier beta days of nLite.
    * download xp SP2 and SP3 service packs and dump in c:\nlite\sp\
    * copy contents of windows installation disk to c:\nlite\source\
    * using Ryan's integrator, set update pack path to c:\nlite\sp\WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe, windows source to c:\nlite\source\, and destination to c:\nlite\working\ and start integration
    * using Ryan's integrator, set update pack path to c:\nlite\sp\WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3-x86-ENU.exe set windows source to c:\nlite\working\ and destination to c:\nlite\working\ and integrate SP3. after SP3 is integrated, if you want to save the windows installation for the next time you install, copy it elsewhere before moving on.
    *  using Ryan's integrator set source to c:\nlite\hotfix\ (where you dumped Ryan's post SP3 update cab) and destination to c:\nlite\working\ and run it.
    * start nLite and set the windows installation path to c:\nlite\working\
    make sure that, in the "version" box, that SP3 is written, otherwise you've made an error earlier.
    IMPORTANT: when using nLite be very careful and move slowly, making sure to READ ALL DESCRIPTIONS and explore all options -- it's easy to skip or screw up something if you're not very careful. 
    rule of thumb: don't remove something if you don't know what it is or what the implications might be
    * following the wizard, select your options. i would suggest the following:
    remove components
    unattended
    options
    patches
    tweaks
    build ISO
    in the case of my thinkpad my hard drive will not be recognized by windows unless i integrate the driver for the SATA controller using nLite OR enter BIOS setup and put the controller in compatibility mode so i can install the driver from windows (after which BIOS needs to be changed again).  integrating drivers will require extra reading on your part and is beyond what i wish to get into here, so, to make things easy if you're not comfortable doing this, just put your controller in compatibility mode if necessary and install the driver from within windows.
    * following the wizard and hitting "next" as necessary, if you've selected the options above, nLite will pop-up a compatibility options window where you want to select what components you really need (prevents you from removing dependancies later).
    * in the next step you'll remove unwanted components - the part i enjoy most.  be careful what you remove! stuff in red is important. this is what i typically remove, give or take:
    Accessibility Options
    Briefcase
    ClipBook Viewer
    Defragmenter (replaced with JKDefragGUI)
    Games
    Internet Games
    Paint
    Pinball
    Screensavers (useful only for very old CRT monitors)
    WordPad (replaced with PSPad)
    Keyboards (i remove all - nLite will keep default for your language)
    ActiveX for streaming video (depends on IE which i remove parts of)
    AOL ART Image Format Support (depends on IE which i remove parts of)
    Images and Backgrounds (desktop eye candy)
    Luna desktop theme (cartoonish desktop theme)
    Media Center
    Mouse Cursors
    Movie Maker
    Music Samples
    Old CDPlayer and Sound Recorder (replaced in part by foobar2000)
    Speech Support
    Tablet PC
    Windows Media Player (replaced by foobar2000, VLC and Satsuki codec pack)
    Windows Media Player 6.4 (replaced by foobar2000, VLC and Satsuki codec pack)
    Windows Picture and Fax Viewer (replaced by XnView)
    Windows Sounds (unneeded sound themes)
    Communication tools (phone dialer, hyperterminal, etc., some replaed by better 3rd part s/w)
    FrontPage Extensions
    Internet Connection Wizard (not needed to create a connection)
    Internet Explorer (i keep the core (there's 2 options for removing this; one to remove parts but keep basic functionality and another to remove the core, which i suggest keeping) as it's functionality is needed by many applications - removing this will remove the "Program Files\Internet Explorer" directory, but you can still browse the web using windows explorer (file manager) if need be. i replace with Firefox)
    Internet Information Services (IIS) (i use Apache (WAMP) for web development)
    IP Conferencing
    MSN Explorer (partially replaced with Miranda IM)
    Netmeeting
    Outlook Express (replaced with Thunderbird)
    Peer-to-Peer (only for MS networks, nothing to do with P2P)
    Share Creation Wizard
    Synchronization Manager
    Vector Graphics Rendering (VML) (depends on IE i think, which i remove parts of)
    Web Folders
    Windows Messenger (replaced with Miranda IM
    .NET Framework (i don't install this at all)
    Blaster/Nachi removal tool
    Color Schemes (predefined desktop color schemes)
    Desktop Cleanup Wizard (replaced with CCleaner)
    Disk Cleanup (replaced with CCleaner)
    File and Settings Wizard (used to transfer settings between 2 computers)
    File System Encryption (try TrueCrypt or AxCrypt - note that MS encryption is propritary and, as such, should not be trusted)
    Help and Support (huge space hog)
    IExpress Wizard
    Manual Install and Upgrade (ability to upgrade OS, which is always a bad idea (better to install clean))
    MS Agent (used for annoying animated paperclip in MS office)
    Out of Box Experience (OOBE) (do NOT remove unless you have a VLK)
    Remote Installation Services (RIS)
    Search Assistant (annoying animated dog in search window)
    Security Center (replaced with Comodo firewall)
    Service Pack Messages
    Shell Media Handler
    Tour (useless windows tour)
    User account pictures
    Web View
    Zip Folders (replaced with IZArc and Universal Extractor)
    Automatic Updates (hardly needed once attack vectors are removed)
    Beep Driver (annoying beep, such as when you press too many keys at once)
    Error Reporting (automitic error reporting to MS - i suppose vista is the result?)
    IMAPI CD-Burning COM Service (replaced with ImgBurn)
    Remote Registry
    Secondary Logon
    System Restore Service (bloated nonsense used for restoring viruses to their orgional state - better to reinstall)
    Languages (i remove all - nLite will keep your default language)
    as should be apparent from the above, security is already enhanced since many attack vectors were removed (OE, WMP, MSN, remote registry, system restore, etc., etc., etc.).
    missing functionality is replaced by better, more functinal and more secure software
    * for the "unattended setup" step, you can select many options, change default paths (Program Files), disable hibernate, configure network adapters and much more.
    * next is "options" where you are presented with many more choices.
    * next is "patches". here i would highly suggest turning off SFC (windows file protection) as this is an incredible annoyance for many people and will greatly increase the time required for your installation.  furthermore, malicious folks and vendors that write drivers know how to get around this nonsense anyway.
    * next is "tweaks" and then you'll finish up by building your installation. i typically cut the size of a default windows xp install by about 50%, but i'm a bit agressive with what i remove.  also some of that space is used by 3rd party software to replace the components removed.
    * if you are comfortable with virtual machine software, that'd be the way to test your shiny new installation ISO. if not, then get ready to take the plunge
    when installed an nLite OS on my thinkpad for the first time (a day or 2 after i got it), i did a test install first - i kept the recovery partition in tact. once i got comfortable with installing the drivers and got everything working, i un-hid and formatted the recovery partition -- gone! you may want to do the same, though speaking from expierence i can tell you that it's rather trivial to get everything working on my T60 (though i do not have nor did i want a fingerprint reader, i would doubt it would be an issue to get working).
    * once windows is up and running, there will be allot of broken stuff  
    some of the "Fn" keys will not work, some will (because the hardware is configured in BIOS). you'll need to install the drivers for the items that you want to work, and this is another area where i depart from the norm. here's some things i don't install and the reasons why (whenever possible, any hardware below is disabled in BIOS or device manager):
    * easy eject utility - not needed/i don't use it anyway
    * hotkey driver - bloated and sometimes buggy software that may corrupt OGL and DX full-screen display (games) and cause stop errors (BSOD)
    * trackpoint - i don't use it, though it works anyway with limited functionality if not disabled in BIOS/device manager
    * trusted platform module - yeah, well i don't trust it
    * away manager -  don't use it/lighter weight alternitives available
    * keyboard customizer - not needed/i don't use it
    * scroll lock indicator - not needed/i don't use it
    * software installer - bloated mess/not needed (subscribe to the Lenovo RSS feed to be made aware of updates)
    * thinkpad configuration package - i'll configure it myself, thanks
    * thinkvantage access connectkions - bloated mess/slows boot time/not needed (better and lighter weight alternitives * available if you need this functionality)
    * ultra-nav wizard - not needed
    * bluetooth - i install the microsoft bluetooth stack (which is smaller and simpler) and have noticably less lag with bluetooth devices resuming from a standby state (mouse in particular)
    * display drivers - i use the highly acclaimed and optimized Omega drivers.
    for the drivers i do install, i install only the drivers, NOT the software (in other words i do not run the installer). i do this by extracting the installer using IZArc or Universal Extractor and using device manager to point the hardware to the extracted *.inf files.  for me, there is only one device that comes up "unknown device" before drivers are installed (i forget which).  the rest are named, so it's easy to tell what path to give them for the drivers. installing drivers for the unknown device is then simple a process of elimination, or you can use software to help identify the device.
    ::: the end :::
    hack it 'till it BREAKS!

    *bookmarked for desection*
    I already see flaws, like turning off remote registry for example. Remote registry only has very limited access, and you can change the access, but why would you? You can see what it has access to by going into Control Panel > Administative Tools > Local Security Policy > > Local Polices > Security Options, then scroll a little more than half-way, and it's under the Network access box.
    There are so many crack pot guides out there, that the only good advice is to look where they looked, and if you don't get it, and don't go though all of it, LEAVE IT ALONE! It only makes servicing the box at a later time a HUGE pain, and if it's in a business, it'll just be reimaged.
    Keep this guy's disclaimer in mind at all times. Just do the easy ones to start, like run CCleaner, it basically does everything for you, and doesn't cause any errors (or as far as I know, and I use it just about every other day)

Eject your USB from your computer first and press any key to restart the computer from Windows. Now you can log in Windows with an empty password (with no password.), just click “Enter” when you login.
    If you have any questions of the procedure and the settings, you could visit the website:http://www.resetwindowspassword.net or send email to [email protected].
    Now you could see that to reset or recover the admin login password of windows OS: XP, Vista, Windows 7 or 2000 is not so difficult and you can do it with ease.

  • Lenovo D20, Type 4155-21G With 5x1.5tb Raid 5, Windows 7 64bit install problem.

    H
    Id like to just document a current machine and works and see if any thing is glaringly wrong..
    Above spec machine has an onboard marrvel 66xx raid card, a raid 5 volume has been created, total useable space is around 5.5TB.
    The software in play here is the following..
    Orignal Lenovo recovery disk set, this is Rescue and recovery boot disk 1, then the OS which is Vista 32 Business, the disk label is actual 64bit but its not 64bit its 32bit.
    The machine finally has to leave with Windows 7 64bit ultimate.
    I have looked into the upgrade paths and so on and basicly you need vista 64bit ultimate in theory, certain hacks are possible such as renaming the os level or name via the registery, but this is dirverting from my post.
    Here is what has been done and what has happend.
    20th Jan.
    Start of day.
    Raid 5 volume created.
    Factory recovery completed windows vista business 32bit.
    Attempt to upgrade Windows vista business to Windows 7 ultimate from with in windows, windows 7 alerts this is not a compatable system etc.
    At this stage since the 64bit upgrade is not possible from the known good lenovo state (lenovo vista business factory desktop etc) the second disks in the "Windows 7 32bit + 64bit any time upgrade package was ran.
    The 32bit version of the Windows 7 ultimate was ran, this did complete sucessfully.
    The 64bit version of the windows 7 was attempted once more from with in the newly installed Windows 7 32 bit but again this upgrade route is not supported.
    At this stage a custom install was completed (which means a fresh install which wipes the drive) / fresh install, of the windows 7 64bit any time upgrade disk.
    For some reason the Windows 7 64bit any time upgrade key failed to be accepted.
    At this stage a second engineer repeated all steps completed to verify and on the second go around the FRESH install of Windows 64bit any time upgrade (stand alone install / custom etc) the key worked!..
    This is were it gets interesting.
    Lets recap, we have a D20 with 5x1.5tb sata hard drives in raid 5, all on the onboard marvel raid card.
    Windows 7 64bit has been sucessfully installed, and of course the next step is to install the lenovo system update tool. (version for windows 7, I understand this is fully 64bit compatable..)
    This was completed and pc doctor and one other misc application install, the system requested to restart and then ....
    The raid BIOS of the marvel card reported that the raid had become degraded..!!
    An inspection of the onboard raid information results that the disk 0 of the 5 disks, was no longer assigned to the RAID 5, with teh remaining several disks still "assigned".
    At this stage the only option is to delete the raid five array and recreate it.
    This has been done and the factory recovery process has once again been restarted and an attempt will be made to perform the custom install with hopefully the windows 7 64bit any time upgrade install detecting the previous version although I would say that it would not need to detect anything since this is now longer an upgrade but a custom fresh install.
    Further information.
    There is a System bios update from the 5th of Jan 2010, this has been burnt to cd and will be applyed against the machine shortly.
    We have had some conversation about just how it is that a disk can fatally pop out from the raid five volume like this, was it a coincidence that it coninsided with the power cycle process dirrectly after the system update installation?
    Tommorow a Windows 64bit OEM package will be applied against this machine and since we have the relivant driver file for the onboard raid card (sourced from the drivers and applications lenovo recovery disk set), there should be less of a problem in key acceptance.
    Kind of a werid situation, what looks like a possible hardware problem and a stupid microsoft upgrade qulification problem.
    Is there any thing stupid I have over looked?
    Thanks, sorry for the long post but this is the story in full.
    Note from Moderator:  Fixed formatting issue.

    21st Jan..
    The D20 has sucessfully had vista business factory reinstalled and then Windows 7 64bit installed.
    Dirrectly after the Windows 7 installation and power cycle, one of the five 1.5tb hard drives have dropped out of the raid, visable as "DEGRADED", uppon further inspection via control m, the middle drive (not drive 0 as before) drive 2 (0,1,2,3,4,5) has dropped out and is not marked as assigned, it is marked with no label or free.
    This is high strangeness, it is my understanding that the RAID technologies are transparent to the OS so it should not be in any way the Windows 7 install triggering this, the last occurance was also during a Windows 7 power cycle but dirrectly after the system update tool being installed.
    At this stage it would appear that Windows 7 64-bit used in conjunction with the supplment driver disk marked as (drivers and apps, windows xp vista, windows 7) is not able to complete and remain stable.
    I suspect a possible driver issue but if this was the case surely the windows 7 install would not progress past the first installation point where the driver disks is required to actually use and see the array via the controler.
    I will update this thread with more information as it becomes available.

  • Creative Zen loading music problem

    "Creative Zen loading music problem?I just started using a creative zen (DVP-FL000, 6Gb) player and i'm having?a few issues copying music onto it.
    I have loaded the latest firmware (.2.03e) onto it and formatted it so was clean when i started loading my music on.
    I'm using winamp on winxp to copy my music to the player, but occasionally i get tracks that wont copy to the player. Winamp just shows 'unspecified error'. If a file fails to copy it will never copy, no matter how many times i try. Somtimes its a random track, sometimes an entire album.
    So i also tried copying the tracks that wont copy using windows explorer, it appears to copy but the file never appears on the device. The same is also true when i try it on my Windows7 laptop with explorer, it will appear to be copying but then part way through it will report that the device has stopped responding.
    It only seems to happen with windows media files, all my mp3s copy fine. The files that dont copy probably represent about 0% of my music but play fine on all my other players.
    sorry for the long post, just really scratching my head with this one!
    anyone have any ideas?

  • Unable to Start CE 7.1 Server on Windows 7 / Vista OS

    Dear All,
    I am trying to install CE 7.1 Server (Java Stack) on my personal laptop ( Windows 7 Home Basic, Intell Core i3 processor, 4GB RAM).
    In the 1st attempt ,the installation failed on Windows 7 OS due to incompatible OS errors.
    So, I installed VMWare 6.5 Workstation, installed Windows Server 2003 OS on it and again tried to install CE 7.1 server on this virtual Windows Server2003 OS.
    Though CE Server got installed properly and the portal was running when I tested the portal just after installing the CE Server for the first time, ( i.e. without the System restart) ,
    But the CE Server is not getting started after restarting the Windows Server 2003 OS ( through VMWare ) or on system restart.
    On Analysis, we observe that jstart.exe  process is stopped while other services ( message service and enqueue service ) are running.
    ( jstart service initially shows Starting... but then goes into a Stopped state ).
    I have even tried to install CE Server on another laptop ( Windows Vista , Core 2 Duo Processor )
    Here, the CE Server got installed ( no need of VMWare )and even the portal was running when I logged in it immediately after installing the CE server for the first time. ( Without System restart )
    But like in previous case ,  when I tried to start the CE server again( After restarting the PC ), I faced the same problem -- CE server did not start reason being jstart service remained in stopped state.
    Is this (jstart service) the main cause for Server not getting started ?
    Can we start this service manually ?
    Is there any system properties or Windows service which is conflicting with the jstart service ?
    Is there any alternative method to install CE Server on Windows 7 / Vista OS ?
    Please help ...
    Thanks and Regards,
    Navin Mittal

    Hi Navin,
      Please verify the DB service is running. The database service is not set to automatically start so it would not be running when you restarted the server. Go to 'Services' windows application and either start the DB service manually or set it to start automatically.
    HTH.

  • SMB sharing drops connection in Windows 7/Vista/XP

    So interesting tidbit here.  Apple Enterprise still hasn't gotten back to me with an answer on this one.
    I have file sharing set up, a couple of different folders with some simple permissions.  Nothing fancy.  All shares work perfect under AFP and SMB on any Mac in the office.  However, I have found on both Windows XP/Vista/7, large file transfers seem to drop the connection saying that either the file has changed or it was renamed or something along those lines, basically, it errors out and I can either skip the file or cancel the transfer.  I've tested it on multiple machines with all same results.  Here's a kicker, I even clean installed Windows 7 on two machines (so I know there are no software/hardware issues or malware) and it will exhibits the same behavior.
    Any thoughts?  I've done the exact same transfer either via Gigabit Ethernet and WiFi on the Mac using both protocols with no issues.  I have a simple network:
    Cisco Gb Ethernet Router
    Cisco Gb Ethernet Switch (all traffic, including the server and all clients go through this switch, it is an unmanaged switch)
    Linksys A/B/G/N WAP
    Mac mini running 10.8.2 and 2.2.1 server (has all correct DNS and certificate settings)
    The only thing I can think of is perhaps an issue with the PCs (which are 10/100) and the Gb Ethernet?  Everything for the server appears to be functioning just fine?

    Hi Bryan -
    First, thank you for taking the time to respond. The answer to your 2 questions is yes and no, respectively. I've already been on the phone with enterprise support with Apple several times and there is definitely a "known issue" regarding the transfer of large files, and large numbers of files over SMB with mountain lion. The SessTimeout tip definitely helped with the file copy issue, but didn't fix the issue I had of keeping large numbers of files open over the network. With my Windows Home Server, I can open a project with thousands of files in my DAW (digital audio workstation) over the network. But with the files residing on the OS X server, they open but then after several minutes, they literally go offline and "disappear". It's very frustrating. I should state that I did buy and install Dave 10 and that fixed the problem, so the problem is definitely on the Apple OS side, I was just hoping that this workaround with the SessTimeout would allow me to go back to Apple's SMB implementation. It just "feels" better to use the Server's implementation rather than a 3rd party app on top of it. Plus, it should just work. Maybe Mavericks will fix it. Maybe.
    Just thought you might have another clever workaround that might make this work. At least with this workaround I can save Word and Excel files to the network without it taking 60 seconds.
    any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
    Charles.

  • HHActiveX.dll  - Windows Explorer open folders in separate window (Win7/ Vista)

    Windows Explorer will open folders in a separate window when you double click them.
    Adobe RoboHelp HTML 8 with update 1 and 2 installed sequentially on Windows XP.
    HHActiveX.dll  8.0.0.203 registered by installer
    Problem:
    What we're seeing is, after installing HHActiveX.dll with our product suite on a 32-bit Windows 7 system (and probably Vista also), after rebooting the computer, Windows Explorer will open folders in a separate window when you double click them. This occurs even when Windows Explorer is set to open them in the same window.
    Solution:
    This seems to have something to do with the registration of actxprxy.dll and/or ieproxy.dll. Reregistering these DLLs and rebooting usually fixes this problem.
    This web article mentions side effects in Internet Explorer and a couple of other programs that also come from this.
    Here's a web page that outlines what we're seeing and how to fix it manually:
    http://www.davidmoore.info/2009/08/19/solution-explorer-open-each-folder-in-same-window-er ror-and-sql-management-studio-ie-and-team-explorer-errors/
    In Windows 7 (and probably Vista also), the GUID of this library has changed from {B8DA6310-E19B-11D0-933C-00A0C90DCAA9} to {C90250F3-4D7D-4991-9B69-A5C5BC1C2AE6}. Also, the registry entries that are concerned with actxprxy.dll are under HKCR\CLSID\{B8DA6310-E19B-11D0-933C-00A0C90DCAA9}; the last component in that registry path is the old GUID, and that's probably what is causing the problem.
    Questions:
    The previous approach provides a way to fix the problem by adding some code to reregister the two DLLs at the end of the install. The developer would prefer not to have to add install code to fix this problem in the first place.
    1) Is this a known issue with Adobe HHActiveX.dll and Windows 7 / Vista? (I didn't find much with a web search or in Adobe Forums.)
    2) Is a newer HHActiveX.dll available to fix this issue?
    3) Does Adobe have a fix for the Windows Explorer problem that this DLL is causing in Windows 7 (and probably Vista also).
    4) Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Here is what the developer did to fix the issue.
    MSI Install: The installer is unregistering actxprxy.dll and ieproxy.dll on Windows 7 32-bit PCs
    Problem: The problem was being caused by Adobe's HHActiveX.dll, a DLL that we have to install because of the browse sequences/ glossary in the new application help. This DLL was registering itself against actxprxy.dll using the GUID that was in use prior to Vista; and that in turn caused the Windows Explorer problem, among others.
    Fix: Added a custom action that is called after the application is installed (or reinstalled or upgraded) that reregisters the 32-bit actxprxy.dll and ieproxy.dll. (Since the problem doesn't manifest itself on 64-bit systems, the custom action leaves the 64-bit actxprxy.dll and ieproxy.dll as they are.) Rolled back the registry deletions that were done in the Shared - help third party merge module in the previous attempt to fix this bug, as those changes were found to be unnecessary.
    Cheers

  • Windows 7 x64 bluetooth problem

    Hi,

    Does anyone have an ide what I can do?

  • Upgraded window from vista to 7 on pavilion DV7 sound not working

    Pavilion DV7 1468NR upgraded windows from vista 64 to windows 7 64 sound not working

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45073.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load.  Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.
    If you still have no audio, open windows Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and open Services.  Check that the following services are all showing as Status= Started and Start-up Type= Automatic
    Audio Service
    Multimedia Class Scheduler
    Windows Audio
    Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
    If you need to make a change to any of the above, just right click the service and select Properties, then in the dropdown box next to 'Start-up type',  select Automatic and click Apply to save the change.  Then click the Start button.
