(re-post) plugins on Vista - any developers seeing new problems, workarounds?

I asked about this a while back but received no replies:
With the arrival of the WOW that is Vista, has anyone noticed new support issues? From my own suite of (open source) plugins, I receive zero support contacts from MacOS or XP users, but as soon as Vista arrived I began to hear about two problems:
* "plugin entry point could not be found" (apparently helped by restarting Windows and reinstalling the plugin)
* a higher incidence of out of RAM errors.
Has anyone else seen these issues? Are there any workarounds? Is anyone doing special Vista builds of their DLLs? If so, what's different?
I hope that "commercial secrecy" doesn't prevent a discussion of this issue.

The main thing I'm seeing is installation issues, new problems in two
areas.
1) registry entries not being written - this affects some systems, and not
others. The user is able to fix this by running a .reg file that I send
them.
2) In some cases, the installer is unable to copy to Photoshop's plugin
folder. This seems to affect some systems all the time, others not at all.
The user is able to fix this by manually copying.

    Only found one question similar and NO ANSWER to it.

    Same problem here...nothing in my settings have changed since the upgrade and I've checked my cookie settings and they allow 3rd party cookies. What's up Mozilla? I've been faithful to you for years and you let me down now?

  • Vista and TC - Vista no longer seeing TC

    I purchased TC so that I could network my Vista (SP1) and Leopard computers. I wanted to add TC to an already existing network and to simply use it as a remote server to extend my wireless. Everything was working great for about 3 weeks. Now, suddenly I can't get my Vista comp to see TC. AirPort Utility says it's connected but my TC isn't showing up under "Computer" or "Networks". I've already reinstalled the software. My mac is seeing TC.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I think I'm going to pull all my hair out. I bought TC to avoid these networking problems. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!

    Sounds like Malware on that PC. Sorry, I don't know what "Deluxe Shield" is or does, but this is our standard recommendation to deal with Malware.

  • AlfUIplugin.plugin cant find any information about this - worried

    alfUIplugin.plugin show errors in my console, I have search the web for this information but come up none
    worry now..anyone know about this and where it may have come from.
    thanks
    LE

    Hi LE and JMo, I was chasing this down myself. It looks like this plugin is used for ALF - Application Level Firewall. ... like the System Preferences/security setting/firewall possibly.
    Not sure if this is the resolution you want, however.. you lads can chase it further if you like and post back.
    If you browse quickview  /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/com.apple.alf.plist you will notice structure and defs in there for many of the usual  FILE SHARING protocols, and some domains and protocols...
    I chased this down to for the purposes resovling  the origin of the system.log message "May 16 09:08:15 rendernode-02.local UserEventAgent[387]: Failed to copy info dictionary for bundle /System/Library/UserEventPlugins/alfUIplugin.plugin" .This message appears on all our Macs
    I'll leave it with you. It looks harmless at this stage. I'll let you know should I pursue it further in earnest
    Let me know if this was of any help.
    Post you results for others to see

  • Windows Vista does not see my Ipad but it always did prior to this attempt

    Windows Vista does not see my Ipad, this is a new problem and I have not made any major changes to either my computer or to my Ipad.  I am running Vista 64 as an operating system.  I get the message that windows has an unrecognized USB device.  I checked to see if the Apple Mobility software is running and it was, I reset it, turned off the computer, soft reset the Ipad but still no luck.

    Hi,
    Can you try a different USB port?
    Check out this link just in case.

  • ITunes on Vista can't see Airport Express

    As above, really. I've got an Airport Express configured to join my wireless network which works fine with my MacBook Air. iTunes on the Air sees the Airport Express and streams to the speakers it's connected to; but iTunes on Vista can't see it.
    My Vista PC is connected by ethernet cable to a DLink router, to which the MacBook Air and the Airport Express connect wirelessly. This setup worked fine with my previous Belkin router.
    Any thoughts? Many thanks in advance.

    On your Vista PC, temporarily disable your Windows Firewall. Did this solve the problem?
    To disable the Windows Firewall:
    o Control Panel > Network and Internet > Windows Firewall
    o Turn Windows Firewall on or off

  • Hi, sometimes big images could not open with photoshop.ı can open with windows but cant open photoshop.if ı try to open i am seeing a white image.is there any answer for this problem please.

    hi, sometimes big images could not open with photoshop.ı can open with windows but cant open photoshop.if ı try to open i am seeing a white image.is there any answer for this problem please.

    Just to assist those who might help you with this, please give the exact version of Photoshop CS6 you are running, for instance CS6 13.0.1.3.
    I had already asked for that in my previous post, but I guess you didn't quite know what I was referencing when I typed "exact version".
    Sorry, I cannot help you myself because I don't deal with that kind of 3D images, don't use Windows, and in all frankness I'm not quite following your last post.
    Also please give the exact model of your graphics card, so they can check whether it is on the list of cards tested by Adobe.
    Thank you.

    And why not? Apple is selling these things like BigMacs. They can't make enough of them. You've been suffering since May because you refuse to get a decent router.
    Can you imagine if a company that makes a refrigerator told me that I needed to upgrade my electrical system to rectify a problem with their device? What kind of response IS that?!?!
    What if the problem with their device is that it requires a new-fangled "grounded" outlet and your circa 1890 house doesn't have grounded outlets. Would you refuse to purchase a $ 25 adapter on principle?

  • Wi-Fi isn't working post ios7 update. Any tips?

    Wi-Fi isn't working post ios7 update. Any tips?

    Check your Wi-Fi systems and all that settings first. Make sure on your iPad it's referring to the correct network has the correct password.
    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.
