Problems connect to vpn since upgrading to Windows 8.1

Since upgrading from Windows 8.0 to 8.1, although normal web access is OK, I can no longer connect to vpn services - receiving error 619. Using another laptop running Windows 7 SP1 on the same router I can connect without any problems. Please help. I have
limited technical knowledge with networking.

The instructions below are included on the site. These do not make sense in Windows 8.1. Right clicking on the 'vpn connection' does not give any additional pop up options (so no properties to change). I also cannot find any options to change the
'Security' settings as described. These instructions are for Windows 8.0, is 8.1 really that much different?
"........Click on the
monitor icon on the bottom right-hand corner;
Right–click on the “VPNForUK.COM” connection, and choose “Properties” from the menu.
Select “Security” tab and for “Type of VPN” select “Point to Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP)”;
Click “OK”;
Click again on the monitor icon on the bottom right-hand corner, and click “Connect” to “VPNForUK.COM”;
In the
next fields type “vpnforuk” as VPN username and VPN password found from website and click “OK”;........"

  • Problem with Cisco VPN since upgrade to Snow Leopard

    Since upgrading to Snow Leopard a couple of hours ago I can no longer open up my CiscoVPN application (version 4.9.01) which I use to connect to my network at work. When I try now I just get an "Error 51: message"
    *Error 51: Unable to communicate with the VPN subsystem.*
    Please make sure that you have at least one network interface that is currently active and has an IP address and start this application again.
    I can still connect to the network if I use Parallels and use the Windows VPN client - but that's not really the point! I've tried the popular suggestion for Error 51 errors in the past (typing "sudo SystemStarter restart CiscoVPN" via Terminal) which doesn't work.
    Any ideas or help appreciated.
    Acculess

    I was able to get it working without re-downloading the client (4.9.0.1.0080 was already installed). I noticed that System/Library/StartupItems/CiscoVPN had been removed during the upgrade to snow leopard, so I pulled it back off of a Time Machine backup. Restoring that directory and doing a 'sudo /System/Library/StartupItems/CiscoVPN/CiscoVPN restart' seemed to fix things up.

    If there are problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
    If you do not have the menu bar in IE then right-click the toolbar at the top to enable the Menu Bar.
    *Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html):<br>File > Import and Export

  • Loss of sound on pavilion dv6700 since upgrading to Windows 10

    since upgrading to windows 10 I have lost my audio.....can't play MP3 music and the system sounds do not work...searched for sound card driver and found three recommended...each one reported suitable hardware not found.....decided to reinstall the sound card driver from my windows 7 install, as luckily I backed up all my drivers before upgrading to OS10.....,although it installed, still no sound...have removed device and drivers and let the laptop reinstall after restart.....don't know what else to try.....don't suppose there is a function key muting sound that I don't know about....thanks

    Hi there Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome! I just need your specific Model Number (How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?) I read your post on the HP Support Forums and see that you are having issues with your HP Pavilion dv6700 Entertainment Notebook PC. I understand that since you have upgraded to Windows 10, you are having an issue with your sound not working. I would be happy to assist you. Please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices, as these could cause some issues. Have you tried in the Device Manager to update the driver that is currently installed? Have you tried to select "Find New Hardware" in the Device Manager?Have you tried connecting headphones to see if the Sound issues persist that way?Have you tried to uninstall in the following order: 1. Uninstall the sound driver in Device Manager2. Restart your Notebook3. Reinstall the driver? You can use the HP Support Assistant for drivers. Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that need updating for Windows 10. If you choose to download the drivers from the HP Driver's Page and there is not a driver in the Windows 10 Column, there should be one in the Windows 8.1 column. The Windows 8.1 drivers should work in Windows 10 also.  Have you tried the Disable and then Enable method? If not, you can find this and other troubleshooting steps in the HP Notebook PCs - No Sound from Speakers (Windows 10, 8) document.  Please follow these provided troubleshooting steps, re-post and let me know how everything went. Thank you! Have a great day!

    I honestly don't know if DW CS5 is compatible with Win 8.1.  The OS compatibility FAQ only mentions DW CS6 & CC.

  • Since upgrade to Windows 8.1, ICloud does not work

    Hi:
    I can't help you with why your PC won't upgrade to W8.1, but I can tell you that if you manage to get W8.1 to install, you won't be able to get the graphics to work anymore.
    There is no W8.1 driver for the graphics setup in your PC.
    So maybe it is a good thing that you can't get it to work.

  • Hp photosmart 7525 not printing since upgrade to windows 10

    Unable to print since upgrading to Windows 10.I've deleted the printer and reinstalled the driver to no avail.

    Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums, and thanks for posting! :cathappy: I'd like to help you get your HP Photosmart 7525 e-All-in-One printer up and running on your new Windows 10 operating system. You've mentioned that you already tried installing the drivers from the HP website. If the Windows 10 driver that you have downloaded does not work, I'd recommend trying the Windows 8.1 driver (the operating systems have the same core functionality, so the Windows 8.1 driver works fine on Windows 10). You can also try uninstalling the software you do have, and re-installing using the HP Printer Install Wizard. The Printer Install Wizard, can fix many software issues automatically. Hope this helps!

  • Since upgrade to Windows 8, cannot save .rdp files under the Remote Desktop Connection application on the Desktop

    Since I upgraded to Windows 8, I am no longer able to save individual Remote Desktop Connection files as .rdp files. I am talking about the traditional Remote Desktop Connection application on the Desktop that was in previous Windows versions, not the
    Remote Desktop App from the Windows 8 store.
    When I try to click on the Save button I get "An error occurred while saving to file"
    When I try to click on the Save As button I get "Unable to open connection file" with the file address being where I tried to save it with the file name at the end.
    Also when I upgraded to Windows 8, my .rdp files disappeared from my Documents folder.
     I need to create different .rdp files for different programs that my employees get into on my server. Now I have to hand type all the info each time into the Programs tap on the Remote Desktop Connection window, because I can't save to an
    .rdp file.
     I like the Remote Desktop App from the Windows store but it won't let me designate specific programs to use using standard dos notation (ie c:\program files\ etc..). It just goes to my server desktop.
     I want to promote Windows 8 to my employees but I need either .rdp files for the traditional Remote Desktop Connection or the ability to open specific programs using dos notation in the Windows Store Remote Desktop App.

    I know this is an old post but others might still be having the problem. Here's what I did.

  • Unable to Connect to my organization's EAS using MS Mail app since upgrade to Windows 8.1 -- certificate error

    Last November, my ASUS laptop forced me to update to Windows 8.1.  Since then, I cannot connect to my organization's mobile EAS using the Mail/Calendar/People app.  The Mail app says "We could not connect to .... because of problems with its
    digital certificates.  Contact your system administrator for info."  I also tried to delete the account and recreate it.  At the account info screen, it gave a related error message, stating "To connect to this account, you need a
    valid certificate on the PC. Contact your system administrator for more info."
    In trying to recreate the account, I note that the 8.1 Mail app appears to have combined all EAS connections -- I seem to recall different options for connecting previously, including one that was more specific to mobile EAS connections.  My organization
    only supports connection to mobile devices, and I continue to be able to connect via Windows phone, Android (iOS devices also supported).
    I have done some digging and see that in my Windows Certificate Manager, there is a Personal Certificate with an error message. It's a "Token Signing Public Key" for "Client Authentication" using an RSA Public Key, but under the Certification
    Path tab, the status states "The issuer of the certificate could not be found."  I suspect this is the certificate that my organization's server is sending but is no longer being recognized by Windows 8.1.
    My organization has been unwilling to support me on this.  They point to the fact that all other devices work, my connection worked with Windows 8.0, and they don't have enough users that connect via Windows 8.1 laptops/tablets to troubleshoot on their
    end.  They also don't want to change setting that then cause other users to lose connectivity on the more commonly used mobile devices.
    So, to trouble shoot myself, I have looked up posts on related issues and I have done all of the following to no avail:
    - Make sure my Windows is up to date, including that latest Certificate/Credential update;
    - Uninstalled the Mail/Calender/People App, restarted, and reinstalled it;
    - Had MS Online support try to trouble shoot.  They created a test account and tried to connect using that to no avail.
    Notably, I have two Windows 8.1 machines -- my wife and I got matching ASUS laptops that both upgraded to 8.1 from 8.0  -- and I am unable to connect to my organization's mobile EAS using either machine. 
    To me, this is clearly a Windows 8.1 issue.  The Mail/Calendar/People app should interface with mobile EAS exactly the same way that other mobile OSes do.  Apparently this was the case with Windows 8.0, but no longer. 
    The last thing I'll add is that my organization requires password and remote wiping when connecting to the mobile EAS.  But, this wasn't an issue when I had Windows 8.0 -- it connected fine and mandated password and remote wipe features.
    NOTE: I originally posted this question on the Windows 8.1 Tehchnet forum and was told by an MS Engineer Soumya Sunda Debroy to repost in this forum. 
    PLEASE ADVISE.  YOUR HELP IS APPRECIATED.
    - Dan

  • Problems syncing contacts since "upgrading" to Windows 7 (Live mail)

    I used to be able to sync my Iphone4 with Windows Mail contacts without a problem. Stupidly upgraded to Windows 7 which pretty much forced me to go to Window Live Mail. Now my contacts on my iphone don't sync with the contacts on Windows live mail (contacts). Any suggestions? I'm fully prepared to accept user error!

    Hi there
    Sorry, but my crystal ball is on the fritz and my telepathy skills are sub par. Therefore I cannot deduce what version of RoboHelp you are using.
    To my knowledge, only version 8 will work properly with Windows 7. If your version is older than version 8 you will likely need to download and install the Microsoft Virtual Machine with XP Mode in order to allow RoboHelp to function properly. This runs an XP environment within Windows 7. You must also have Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate. Home Premium doesn't allow you to use the virtual machine.
    Cheers... Rick
