Problem with Updated Webcam Software for Windows 7 (I AM NOT USING THE BETA VERSION OF WINDOWS 7)

I have a dv5-1235dx.  HP posted new software for Win 7 (64) built in camera software.  The install seemed to go fine, but once you click to run the software, nothing happens, so it seems.  About a minute or so later, the application opens.  Why is it taking so long to open.  I have uninstalled/reinstalled multiple times and the problem still exist.  I have tried to go back to the old vista version of the software (running in cap mode), but now that software takes a long time to load.  I have done a restore, with no affect.  What happened?  Note:  I am using the full retail version, not a beta of Win 7 Ultimate.  None of the other Updated HP software has this problem.  HP won't help because Windows is not officially released yet.

  • I am having problems with small text size on AOL mail, and am using the latest version of Firefox.

    I am having problems with text size when using AOL Mail. I am using version 25.0 of Firefox. I did not have this problem in the past, but I suspect a change occurred with one of the Firefox upgrades. I do not have the same problem when using Internet Explorer.

    Could you start by resetting the zoom level on the page? To do that, you can either:
    * Press Ctrl+0 (that's a zero) on the keyboard
    * View menu > Zoom > Reset
    You also can use zoom to increase/decrease the size from there. This article describes the various mouse, keyboard, and menu methods: [[Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages]].
    Any luck?

  • My business has been using Appleworks forever. I now have a rubbish mac book pro. I am waiting for Mac to update their software to allow my business to use the 'cwk' drawing files developed over 10 years. letterheads, business cards, box labels etc.

    My business has been using Appleworks forever. I now have a rubbish Macbook pro. I am still waiting for Mac to update their software to allow my business to use the many Appleworks files accumulated over the last 10 years. Letterheads, business cards, trademarks, brands, parts labels, box labels etc. etc..  When will this happen?

    Here is a post I just assembled for another Appleworks user:
    First, read these excellent articles on Appleworks migration:
    Appleworks for the modern day, a migration tip by a brody; and
    Abandoning Appleworks by Roger Wilmut.
    If you need to run Appleworks 6 to export some data (for example a database, which cannot be opened by any other program):
    a)  If your Mac will still boot into Snow Leopard, partition your hard drive (or add an external hard drive) and install Snow Leopard (and the optional Rosetta) into it and use the "dual-boot" method to boot into Snow Leopard and run Appleworks 6; or
    b)  Install Snow Leopard Server into Parallels and run Appleworks 6 concurrently with Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks:

    Hey KEBENNETT, 
    It sounds like you've restored Windows on your PC and iTunes is no longer opening and running normally. 
    I'd recommend using the instructions found at step 4 and 5 in this article to repair or remove/reinstall your iTunes installation:

  • I can not install Windows Media Player plugin when i'm using the beta version of Mozilla. Even after the installation, it doesn't work.

    Windows Media Player plugin doesn't work with the beta version of Mozilla.

    Make it easier. C:/Program/Mozilla Firefox (the old installation) and copy the entire folder "plugins". Now go to the path of the Firefox beta installation and paste the folder. All the old add ons will work. Bye

  • Since uploading Firefox 4 I get error messages saying it can't update and I should be sure I am using the latest version. I am, so why will updates not load?

    The question is in the title. I have had no updates to Firefox 4, just error messages saying they can't be loaded and I should check that I am using the latest version. I have downloaded Firefox 4 again to be sure my copy is up to date but it makes no difference. I still get the error message.

    Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder.<br />
    You may need to delete active-update.xml and updates.xml as well if present.

Seems all details in my blackberry handheld contact got synchronized, but not email addresses (so all names, jobs, companies, work phone, mobile - all got synchronized, but not email addresses). All data is in my handheld. I wish I could just "replace" (not merge/sync) outlook contact with all contact in the handheld but seems there is no option to do that. Let me know please if someone has similar experience and has found out solution. Thanks!

  • Problem with update of firmware for 5300

    Hi,
    I have following problem while trying to update my firmware from version 5.51 to 7.00 on my 5300:
    I am connecting the phone through usb cable to PC-suite 7.0.9.2 and the update starts normally. Works fine till it reaches exactly 15%. There it shuts down the phone and loses the contact with the phone. Now I am asked to reconnect the phone and click retry. Same thing again and again and... again........
    Note that I can not start the phone untill I disconnect the cable and take out the battery!
    Does any one know how to get over this point and end the update???

    EI! How come no one answered this topic? Help this dude please.. Coz i'm in the same case as he has.. oww, man..

  • Problem with update QuickTime player for OS X 10.5.8

    Hello everybody. I have Mac OS X 10.5.8 and today I couldn't open iTunes because as it was written in opened window my QuickTime has the old version (7.4). But there is no new version for OS X 10.5.8. What should I do? How to improve it?

    Let's try installing a QuickTime 7.7 for Leopard using a .dmg installer downloaded from the Apple website:

  • Didn't update my Leopard for long, can I just use the latest update?

    Hi guys, I'm not so long on Mac, so don't know the details, i work with music offline on my Leopard, and didn't update it for long, now wanna do it, can I just download the latest update or I should have all the previous ones, as my system now is 10.5.2?
    Thank you

    Hi Eustace, I believe that it should be possible to download a dmg on a Windows machine and then transfer it to a Mac and run it, although I must admit I've never done it--I have downloaded Windows installers on my Mac and transferred them to WindowsXP and Vista, and run them without a problem (although some sites make it difficult because they check your OS and send you to the downloader for the OS you are booted in--I seem to recall one where it simply would not ever let me download what I wanted). I wouldn't recommend this for the OP though--I really think the best bet is to have the Mac connected to the Internet and run Software Update, so that all the updates needed are available and get run. Once the first batch are run and the computer restarts, one would then run Software Update again to see if other updates then become available...something that happens quite often. The OP would have to know all the updates that are available and needed on the Mac beforehand, then find the stand-alone updaters for each one and download them, and still wouldn't find out what other ones might be needed after running the first batch.

  • Can Windows 7 be installed using the latest version of boot camp on 3TB fusion iMac drive?

    I have tried unsuccessfully several times to install an .ISO version of 64-bit Windows 7 SP1 on my late 2012 iMac, equipped with a 3TB fusion drive. My proposed Windows partition, set up under boot camp assistant from the utility folder, is well under the 2.2TB size limit. I have carefully followed all the prescribed steps using the latest available software mounted on a FAT USB thumb drive.
    The install fails, however. early on when Windows fails to recognize the requested partition situated in the fourth slot. I get an error message that the partition can't be found. ("Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition.") I have picked the partition labled "BOOTCAMP."
    After booting back on the Apple side, the disk utility shows the partition as being there formatted as a FAT install.
    Apple has an update release with the 10.8.3 version of OS X that says this bug has been addressed and should now work.
    I would greatly appreciate some help.

  • The Add-Ons Manager is supposed to auto update your add-ons but it is not detecting the latest version of Adobe flash player. Why is it not detecting the update?

    I have Adobe flash player version 10.2.152.32 installed and Adobe has released version 10.2.3.1 so why is the add-ons manager not detecting that an update is available?

    Adobe Flash is not an add-on, it's a plug-in and you have to use the Plug-in Check to check for updates:
