Reader 9.4.4 won't update and AdobeARM.exe doesn't terminate.

Two problems.
1. On Windows 2000 Pro, SvcPk 4, installation, Adobe Reader 9.4.4 Updater erroneously reports "No updates available", failing to update to 9.4.5.
2. After running Updater, AdobeARM.exe fails to close, even if Reader is closed and Windows is rebooted, necessitating that it be terminated using "End Process" in Windows Task Manager before Updater can be run again.

Here are two files that might be relevant:

Updater won't run unless AdobeARM.exe is first manually stopped.

I'm still using Reader 9.4.1, which I recently reinstalled (after Reader X wouldn't open following initial installation) on Windows 2000 Professional, SP4.
Windows Task Manager always shows process AdobeARM.exe running after initial booting of computer.
In Reader, the "Check for Updates" function fails, yielding the message "Updater is already running".
Windows Task Manager shows an additional process AdobeARM.exe running for each attempt to check for updates. (AdobeARM.exe doesn't close automatically following an update or an update attempt.)
Only after closing all instances of AdobeARM.exe will the Updater run, and, unless AdobeARM.exe is once again manually closed with the Windows Task Manager, the Updater cannot be run a second time.

OK, I see.
I would like to help you and it will require a little more effort from you.
1. In the registry below set iLogLevel DWORD value to 1.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Adobe ARM\1.0\ARM
2. Restart the system
3. Open AdobeARM.log file and copy last section related to the last run of Updater, starting with
[Date\time] Adobe ARM 1.4.7.0 logging started.
E-mail it to me or post in the forum so I can investigate further.
Also, please provide a few more pieces of info
a. Are you logged as Administrator?
b. Is there Acrobat installed on the system? If yes, which version?
c. Did you change Updater preferences to disable automatic updates (I can actually get it from the log)?
d. Is there any other User looged into this system? If Yes, what kind of the User? Admin? Standard? Guest?

Twitter loads, but won't update and gives Twitter error message, but only in Firefox.

I just installed my operating system (Ubuntu Linux 12.04, KDE desktop) three days ago, and installed Firefox yesterday. When I go to my Twitter feed, I get a bar at the top of the page saying "Sorry! We did something wrong. Please refresh the page and try again." Refreshing doesn't change anything. At the same time, my feed won't update, and scrolling down the page doesn't bring bring up more tweets, just an error message saying:
Loading Tweets seems to be taking a while.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
This does not happen in Chrome or Rekonq. I've checked all my add-ons, cleared my history, cache and cookies. I don't know what else to do. Help?

What worked for me was to delete all cookies in Firefox, and then log in again to Twitter. Options > Privacy > clear you recent history. Ask it to clear everything and untick all but cookies.

My ipad1 won't update and doesn'tshow to update software

Hello 3512931312,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have an iPad (1st generation) and would like to update the software on it. The latest supported iOS version available to the iPad (1st generation) is iOS 5.1.1. If your iOS version is lower than that and you would like to update, I would suggest attempting the update with your computer using the instructions located Update your device using iTunes section in the attached article.
Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
Have a great day,
Joe

If recovery mode did not work, try DFU mode, but don't use the latest backup to restore from after you have set it up "as new ipod" again.

My Apple TV won't update and I can't sign into iTunes

I have the second generation Apple TV which is due an upgrade of software but it won't update. I kept getting a message saying that it wouldn't work. It also won't sign me in to iTunes and Netflix never works. Not sure of this has anything to do with not being able to upgrade. Can someone help?

We had this problem and a restart fixed it.

TS3274 Original iPad won't charge, won't update and iTunes won't recognize

I have one of the first generation iPads that won't charge unless it is completely drained of power. Also if after it shuts off from 0% power ifr any reason it gets turned back on while plugged in, it stops charging and won't continue to charge until the device is completely drained again. Also iTunes won't recognize the device AND it is operating under iOS 5.1.1 and says the software is up to date and won't update at all. I have tried different plugs, different computers, nothing works. Is my iPad just too old?

The failure to update isn't an issue. The iPad one is maxed out at 5.1.1.
The other issues may be an issue with the battery, or charging port or software inside. You may want to make an appointment to get it checked out, but even if what's broken is a manufacturer's defect you're outside of any warranty so the most you'll get is the offer of an out of warranty replacement for a fee. might ultimately be cheaper to put that money towards a new device.
Have you tried to give your iPad a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that helps.

My iphone won't sync, update, and I can't even get itunes to load right?

Hi Spacelionx,
I do have Entourage checked and every other thing that is in that box on my phone. Thanks, I wish it had been that simple.

TS1702 2 of my apps won't update and my music isn't showing. Help?

Mysmurfs village and logo game won't update. I have tried re-syncing my iPad and everything but won't work. Also when I plug it into the laptop it says I have 392 songs on it yet when I goin to music on my iPad there is nothing there. Can someone help?

Try resetting the iPad: Simultaneoisly hold down the On and Home buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignor the off slider if it should appear. This should take around ten seconds, give or take. Once shut down is complete, turn the iPad back on using the On button.

HT204266 Anyone else having problem with updates? My apps won't update and can't download any new apps.

My phone won't update the apps or let me download any new ones. Been going on for few days now.

Many developers are releasing updates today because tomorrow Apple is shutting down iTunes Connect (the developer backend to iTunes) for the holidays. This could be affecting things, but I doubt it.
You can try resetting your iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.

After updating to ios7, my apps won't update and I can't download anything from the App Store or iTunes Store.

After updating to ios 7, I have tried to update my apps and I can't. I press update and put my password in, the blue circle goes round, but in a few seconds, it stops and acts as if nothing happened in the first place.
Please help, as I can't play a game as it needs the new update!
Thank you.

This has been happening to a few people right after upgrading. Just wait and give it some time and you will get the updates. The other thing you may see for a while is that there are updates available, which in fact, have already updated previously. THose go away magically on their own.
If you're feeling impatient, you could try to sign out of the App store from your Apple ID then sign back in. Not sure that's really helping anyone, but it may.

Apple Mail won't update and keeps recovering the same message.

My Apple Mail hasn't been working since 31st January. Every time I open it the same email just continues duplicating itself in the "Recovered messages" folder so I end up with hundreds of them. This email was the last email that was successfully sent and I was overseas at the time. When I returned home, my email would not update and it has not worked since.
I have tried rebuilding and taking mailboxes offline and online. Should I delete the 'mail' folder from my library? Any suggestions would be appreciated! I have not been using a Mac for too long, so I tend not to know what to do when something goes wrong.

Hello,
You'd only want to delete boxes/accounts if you could afford to loose all those emauls.
Is this a POP account or IMAP?
Who is the Mail provider, the part after the @ sign?

Since updating my iPhone 4S, existing apps won't update and cannot update new apps even after deleting apps to make room. What can I do?

Whenever I try to download a new app, I receive an error message that the app can't be downloaded at this time, try again later. Also, existing apps won't update. I have tried deleting apps to make more room, but so far nothing has helped.

Does it also ask you to contact itunes support?
