This question was solved.
View Solution.

I understand you are getting an error message relating to a runDLL.
What is the product number of the notebook? This can typically be found on a label on the underside of the notebook or in the battery compartment. This label should also contain the serial number.
NOTE: Do NOT provide the serial number.
What OS is the system using? For example, Windows 7 or Windows Vista.
Did this happen after a particular program was installed or uninstalled?
RunDLL errors can be the result of malware. Have you scanned the system for malware using an updated anti-virus program?
Does it happen in a clean boot state? This document details how to enter a clean boot state.

Getting error message: "Run DLL" There was a problem starting. C:\users/John\AppData\Local\Conduit\BackgroundContainer\BackgroundContainer.dll

Keep getting the error message below every time I start my computer:
Run DLL
There was a problem starting
C:\users\John\AppData\Local\Conduit\BackgroundContainer\BackgroundContainer.dll
The specified module could not be found.

RunDLL is a legitimate Windows file that executes/loads .dll (Dynamic Link Library) modules which too can be legitimate or sometimes malware related. A RunDLL "Error loading... message usually occurs when the .dll file that was set to run at startup in the registry or as a scheduled task has been deleted. Windows is trying to load this file(s) but cannot locate it since the file was mostly likely removed during an anti-virus or anti-malware scan. However, an associated orphaned registry entry still remains and is telling Windows to load the file when you boot up. Since the file no longer exists, Windows will display an error message. You need to remove this registry entry so Windows stops searching for the file when it loads.
To resolve this, download AutoRuns and save it to your Desktop from this site:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902
and follow these Steps
* Create a new folder on your hard drive called AutoRuns (C:\AutoRuns) and extract (unzip) the file there.
* Open the folder and double-click on autoruns.exe to launch it.
* Vista/Windows 7/8 users right-click and select Run As Administrator.
* Please be patient as it scans and populates the entries.
* When finished scanning, it will say Ready at the at the bottom and list all entries under the Everything tab.
* In the top menu, click File > Find... and type the file name (backgroundcontainer.dll) related to the error message, then click Find Next.
* Alternatively, you can scroll through the list and look for any entry related to backgroundcontainer.dll and conduit.
* If found, right-click on the entry and choose delete.
* Exit Autoruns and reboot your computer when done.
'''An alternate method to resolve this issue is as follows:'''
1. Go to Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools.
2. Open Task Scheduler and click on Task Scheduler Library.
3. Look through the list for an entry related to BackgroundContainer.
4. If found, right-click on it and select Delete.
5. Exit all programs and reboot the computer when done.

It sounds as though you’ve had a recent infection and one of your ‘anti’ programs has removed the malware files, or some of them, but missed the entry in the registry, possibly due to an out-dated definitions database. I suggest you, firstly, download and
run the free Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from
http://www.malwarebytes.org/free/ to ensure that you are completely clean. If you then restart the computer and the message is still appearing try one of these, but it is prudent to create a system restore point before you change the registry in (1) below
by going to Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > System > System Protection (in the left pane) > System Protection Tab > Create and make sure you give it a meaningful name.
1. The entry is probably in one of the \Run keys, but as the rascal could be hiding in a number of other ‘autorun’ keys, it’s quicker to search the whole registry. Open a Run window (Windows Logo key+R), type regedit and press Enter. Click Edit > Find and
type the rogue’s name, put ticks in Keys, Values and Data, then click Find Next. When it’s found in the right pane, right-click it and delete it. There should be only one entry but press F3 to continue searching, just to confirm there are no more.
2. If you’re concerned about making registry changes disable the entry using the system configuration utility, but bear in mind that you’re disabling the entry not deleting it as you would in (1) above. Open a Run window (Windows Logo key+R), type msconfig
and press Enter. Go to the Startup Tab and remove the tick alongside the rogue’s name. Click Apply, OK, etc. and restart the computer. When it restarts, put a tick in ‘Don‘t show this again‘ as you‘re effectively doing a selective start up.
Ninety-nine per cent of politicians give the rest a bad name.

Error message at start up - there was a problem starting.....adobe\wnbqc.dll

there was a problem starting.....adobe\wnbqc.dll The specified file could not be found
I recently updated adobe reader and while the program is working fine, I continue to get this pop up when starting my computer. What can I do?

Among many things, I do see the adobe mentioned above with unknown listed as the manufacturer. Should I disable it? Remove it? Norton tech help says it is not a virus.

There was a problem starting C:\Program Files (x86)\Think Pad\Utilities\PWMTR64V.dll

Getting this error on every reboot: There was a problem starting C:\Program Files (x86)\Think Pad\Utilities\PWMTR64V.dll Cannot uninstall Lenovo Power Power Management Drive All on Windows 10 64bit. Lenovo Twist. Had installed the latest version (1.67.10.15).

There are 2 separate things here:
1. Lenovo Power Management Driver - this is supported on Windows 10 but needs to be updated to a recent version: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/migr-4gxpeg
2. Power Manager - this is not supported on Windows 10 and should be uninstalled.
So have you uninstalled "Power Manager"? The PWMTR64V.dll file comes from Power Manager

There was a problem starting C:\Program

Just used the Lenovo update gadget.
During reboot I get this message several times.

Hi there,
Try downloading and running the print and scan doctor located here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03275041&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en
It can fix a lot on its own and if not give a better idea of what is going on.

"There was a problem starting C:\Windows\System32\LogiLDA.dll"

Message said that specific mode cannot be found.

I can't imagine why you are asking about a specifically Windows problem in an Apple forum, but possibly the comments in this page may assist you.

When my screensaver starts, it gives me an error there was a problem connecting to server

It seems like I'm having a problem with iPhoto. Whenever my screensaver comes on, it just sits on "Loading Photos" and then when I move the cursor to get out of the screensaver, I get a warning saying "There was a problem connecting to server XXX"
I don't know why it's trying to connect to this server. I have googled and searched and tried everything that everyone has said (renaming/deleting plists, removing all login items, clearing iPhoto and trying to start over...) but nothing has helped.
This error also comes up pretty consistantly when iPhoto is open.
I'm not really sure what else to check. I can't find any trace of the remote server, so I'm not sure why this is coming up.
I'm running Mountain Lion and whatever the latest version of iPhoto is.
Any thoughts?

I was able to get it. Apparently there was some old photo in my iPhoto library that was being mapped out to the server that it kept trying to connect to.
Which should have been relatively easy to detect, except the way that iPhoto is setup, there was no real way to find the source for each photo.
What I was able to do to was, under photos, CMD-A to select all photos and then try and move them to an album. It popped up with a notice saying that it wasn't able to find XXXXX.jpg and I had the option to cancel or find the photo. So I renamed another photo on my desktop to XXXXX.jpg, and when the error came up, I selected Find and then used the copy on my desktop to replace it.
After I did that, it let me add all of the photos to an album and I was able to launch the screensaver successfully.
A pretty big pain in the but that would have been easier to resolve if the UI of iPhoto was a little more detailed or customizable. But oh well it worked for me.
Hopefully this helps.

Recurring "connection failed" when selecting TimeCapsule in the sidebar (internet connection works fine). Clicking "Connect As" starts the cyle over again but ends in "There was a problem connection to the server" message. Only fix is resetting TC.
The TC is the wifi base station, also have AirportExpress on the network, both of which work fine. The TC has an external disc connected as well, which is also visible in the sidebar but also cannot be connected to. Several MB computers use the network, all of which either can or cannot connect to the TC disc depending on when it is acting up.
Any ideas other than clicking "connect as" or powering down the network every time?

Read up how to install 5.6 utility into ML.. it is pretty easy.
I downloaded 5.6
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Download unpkg
http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
Open the dmg to get the pkg.. drag it onto unpkg.. and it will create a directory under desktop with all the files.. drag the application to the utility directory.. or just run it direct.
Google if you want more explicit instructions.
Much easier with a real tool instead of a toy.
Hold the option key when you select firmware update.. all the old ones will appear.
But this will not work on newer Gen4.. only on every other model and early Gen4. .I do not know when they turned the corner and started this only 7.6 nonsense.

I'm trying to buy a book. The book is made in I-Photo and when I push buy book button it starts to process and than says-- There was a problem communcating wit the apple store " help"

I'm trying to buy a book I made in I-photo. I have made a 20 page book in I-photo and when I push the "buy book" button it starts to process and then pops up a sign that say'es There was a problem commucating with the apple store. Please try again. Help

Are you buying from the correct Print Products Store? If you are using the wrong store, your AppleID may not be valid.
Is the Print Products Store set correctly in iPhoto Preferences > Advanced? It should be set to the same country as your billing address and delivery address, and match the settings of the Apple ID you are using.
And you are using iPhoto '09 or '11, right? you can no longer buy books from earlier versions.
When you reenter your settings as LarryHN described, don't forget to enable Express Checkout. It is required.
