SkyDrive in Windows 8.1 RTM stuck on downloading files

Hi,
when I make SkyDrive's files offline on Windows 8.1 RTM, the SkyDrive never finishes (it stuck in "Downloading xxx files"). They are kept in this state forever, even after restarts and/or additional uploads.
I have tried this on several computers several times but it always (or almost always) stuck. Number of files differs on each attempt.
I've tried to search for a solution on the net, but have not found anything useful/working (including the App Troubleshooter, or deleting all the files and uploading again), just few notes that for some people a fix on the server side was required.
This issue were present also in the 8.1 Preview era. Applying the RTM Rollup patches did not help.
Would you check the server side for me or suggest how to fix it?

Hi,
Let’s try to redirect the skydrive folder and sync again to see what’s going on:
1. Open regedit and find following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SkyDrive
2. Change “UserFolder” to another location.
3. Open the SkyDrive Metro app to confirm your files and new directory.
Then check the issue again.
If the issue persists, please try to reset your Windows 8.1.
Note:Backup your personal data.

Windows 8.1 RTM stuck on loading screen

No updates, drivers or programs not installed. Windows 8 works perfectly.
Please help.

Hi,
I'm facing the same problem here with my HP Mini, if you have a keyboard (USB) or a mouse, try to remove them & restart.
In my case this doesn't work, but it can work for you.

How do I tell itunes (on a Windows XP PC) to start adding downloaded files to an external drive ? Starting itunes while pressing the shift key and then choosing works only for a MAC, I think. I only need this one final step. All is copied already

How do I tell itunes on a Windows XP PC to start downloading new songs to my external drive ? The whole library has already been moved. I am just one final step away. Everything I`m downloading still lands on C: Relaunching itunes while pressing "shift" and then getting prompted to choose library might work for a Mac, it doesn't for Windows.

In iTunes click on 'Edit', then 'Preferances', Click on the 'Advanced' button, change the entry in the 'iTunes media folder location' to point to your external drive.

Can I connect a windows HD to my iMac to download files from it?

How do I do it? I'm def over my head here. I have an iMac OS X Lion 10.7.5. My HD came from a Dell 4400 Dimension. Thanks in advance!
I did manage to remove the HD from my Dell without blowing up the world. That's a good start. I think I need to buy a power cord and then something with a USB port to hook the HD to my iMac. Then can you use Migration Assistant? Or does that only work when the computer is online?

Rj iii wrote:
I have no need to write to it, so that's not an issue. What do you mean by enlosure?
An enclosure is a device used to put the HD into. For example:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/MEP934FWU2/
This one is an excellent one, after you have moved the files over you can then re-format the HD and use it as a backup which is something you MUST have anyway. You can use Time Machine (already integrated into OS X ) which will create automatic backups for you. You simply need an external HD to backup to.

Is there any way to reset or reinstall the Skydrive client on a 8.1 RTM ?
Michaël Bozio-Made

please download this reg file from my SkyDrive:
http://cid-128fc518635be2dc.office.live.com/self.aspx/.Public/MS%20Foren/Registry/LocalDumps.reg
and make a double click on the file to import it.
When an application (like SkyDrive) crashes, Windows Error Reporting Service [1] creates a dmp file under C:\Localdumps. Please upload the dump (zip it first) to your public Skydrive [2] folder and post the link here. I take a look at the dump with the Debugger,
maybe I can see the cause.

Window on mac is stuck under menu bar

window on mac is stuck under menu bar

In case this happens to anyone else (and searching the web, it seems fairly common), the application that was having this problem for me was iTunes. Stuck under the menu bar, no way to move it. I could get it to go full screen, but going back to a window put it in the same stuck position. Quitting and restarting the application didn't help.
Finally found a solution that worked for me (2013 MacBook Air, Mavericks); I usually have an external monitor plugged in when I'm at home, which enabled the following:
I right-clicked the iTunes icon in the Dock, went to "Options" in the popup menu, and selected "Assign to Desktop on Display 2" (which is my Air's built-in screen). I then started the application, and it opened in the middle of the Air screen. After that I could move it anywhere (and I reassigned it to "All Desktops" from Options).
Hope this helps someone...

Windows 8 installation gets stuck during create partition step in bootcamp. Any suggestions?

windows 8 installation gets stuck during create partition step in bootcamp. I tried to restart the bootcamp with same results. I have given it more than 6 hrs for last 3 times but I was able to go past this step previously where I got stuck during registering windows8.

Hi,
According to your description, it seems that your all Windows 8.1 computers connect to network via normal wireless network.
Did you have wireless router for them?
Please delete this adhoc, then check if these computer could connect to network.
If no, follow below guide to create and connect to adhoc :

Firefox won't start. Everytime I end the process/close the last window, it keeps getting stuck at about 2500k memory in the task manager. (continued)

Firefox won't start. Everytime I end the process/close the last window, it keeps getting stuck at about 2500k memory in the task manager. The only way I have to fix it is to change some kind of compability settings or try and access it in a new way, and every time it crashes/closed/computer blue screens that setting will no longer work.
That is a short term solution, but eventually I'll run out of ways to access firefox successfully. I've tried many solutions, and some worked, but only once. I have yet to find a permanent solution for this problem.

First please update your plugins to make sure you are up to date. Shockwave Flash player has a newer version 16. In order to better manage the memory that Firefox uses please see these troubleshooting steps: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-uses-too-much-memory-ram Firefox Uses too much RAM]
You also mentioned that Firefox crashes, we're sorry to hear that Firefox is crashing. In order to assist you better, please follow the steps below to provide us crash IDs to help us learn more about your crash.
#Enter ''about:crashes'' in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.

''' Note:''' If a recent Report ID does not start with '''bp-''' click on it and select '''Submit'''.

Power Management Issues with Windows 8.1 RTM on HP Elitebook 8560w

Installed Windows 8.1 RTM on my HP Elitebook 8560w yesterday and am having the same problem as with Windows 8.1 Preview before - power management is not working correctly. The screen will dim real shortly and come right back after the set amount of minutes, but it does not turn off. Standby never occurs. I have the power managent plan set to "balanced", but neither plugged in or on battery do the set timers work. The only thing that works is manually pressing the power button to go into standby.
Anybody else see this problem or is there a bug fix for this?

Windows 8.1 is not an official release, and still a beta program and not officially supported. Also, your EliteBook is a Business model. Your future issues would be best answered on the HP Enterprise Business Community Forum
Good luck!

Any known issues with updating to the Windows 8.1 RTM?

The Windows 8.1 RTM is finally on MSDN. I was looking to run the update and wanted to see if anyone has upgraded and see if anyone has seen any issues with CC.

In case anybody else is using Windows 8.1 on 3200 x 1800 resolution and experiencing the same problem, I think I may have found a workaround. At least on this laptop (Dell XPS15) I can right
-click on the EDQ application in the Start Menu and choose to Run with graphics processor / High - performance (NVIDIA) processor. This appears to render the EDQ canvas with sympathetically sized fonts making the processes, and the attributes within processors, readable again.
I would be interested to hear if anybody has some Java font parameter that can be set to control the font size on Java applications, but for now the problem I had appears to be solved.

T420 hyper-v does not install after windows 8.1 RTM

I am a developer and I had to upgrade my system to windows 8.1 RTM.
My machine was orginally windows 7, I upgraded to windows 8 and after a few patches and updates all was well. I ran hyper-v vms on my machine the last 1 1/2 year successfully. After the upgrade to 8.1 it would not install the hyper-v feature.
I verified after the install that my BIOS still had both virtualizaiton settings enabled. i saw other posts that the issue could be attributed the network card, or video card, or USB 3 being enabled. I am suspecting network driver as I used to run CISCO VPN client 5.x on my windows 8. However, on windows 8 Cisco vpn client did not work if I used the wireless adapter. I got around that issue by using ShrewSoft VPN when I needed to use my wireless network adapter for VPN. Both completely stop working, and once uninstalled could NOT be installed again on windows 8.1 system.
I also saw that Lenovo may not release 8.1 drives until october, but I really need them now as I can't restore back to windows 8.0 because I need the 8.1 kernel for my work, but then I also need hyper-v to work as well. Any help or sugguestions are welcome.
A quick point about the message: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Windows-8/Hyper-V-on-Windows-8-not-working/m-p/844685/highlight/true#M51...
vmware does not work if he didn't have virtualization BIOS settings set.
Solved!

When I tried to do a clean install of windows 8.1, I found out that I had a bad iso image. I downloaded it again and then did a clean install and everything works fine now.

Apps stuck on "processing file" in 11.1.3.8 for Windows

I don't believe that this was a problem 100% of the time since I downloaded 11.1.3.8 for Windows, but I am noticing that recently, most times the software hangs during the "processing file" portion of updating any app.
If I go into task manager and kill all iTunes processess and restart iTunes I can occasionally get smaller apps to update individually if I run the update process quickly after restarting, but once iTunes has been running for about a minute everything that I attempt to update hangs.
I can update the apps on my iPhone or iPad and sync them to succesfully update the apps on my computer/in iTunes, but downloading them hangs.
I've seen other people complaining about it here so I know it's a legitimate issue, my question is -- can anybody confirm if this is software based in 11.1.3.8 or if this is something on Apple's end where the downloaded software pings their servers for verification during the 'processing file" portion of the update?
Thanks for any info that anybody has!

I have the exact same problem and I am experiencing this since last week. My problem is-
When I try to download/purchase an app using iTunes, it immediately starts downloading. Ideally, download starts and finishes in sometime, depending on the file size. In the last stage of downloading, iTunes tries to process the downloaded file and places it in the '...\Music\AppSync\Mobile Applications' folder in my case. The problem I am facing is that sometimes file never completes downloading and gets stuck. Download reaches 100% then iTunes shows 'processing file' and it gets stuck there and never completes. This means that downloaded ipa file never added to the 'Mobile Applications' folder. Even if I try to delete the download, iTunes does not do anything and then I have to kill the iTunes process manually as it does not even quit by clicking on the cross icon. After killing the iTunes process using task manager in windows, I restart iTunes and go to my purchase history to start downloading that app again. Sometime it succeeds otherwise it gets stuck again and I have to repeat the process of killing iTunes and starting again. But after several attempts, it does get downloaded. Also, note that this does not happen all the time, mostly randomly. If I am trying to download 10 apps for example, it will get stuck in 1 or 2.
This problem comes both updating and downloading new apps. I have not found any solution for this yet. I am following up with iTunes support but all they can think of is to reinstall iTunes.
I have latest version of iTunes and it is running on Windows 8.1. The iTunes account country is USA.

Microphone not functional in latest skype running under Windows 7 pro RTM

Essentially I've installed Windows 7 pro RTM on my new Macbook Pro (the 15" unibody) and I've updated Skype to the latest version (4.1.0.136). Obviously I installed BootCamp 2.1 into Windows 7, along with all its drivers.
Skype fails to detect any sound from my microphone - either the builtin Cirrus Logic, or when I plugin my headset. Weird. It DOES detect the Cirrus Logic hardware, just no sound being sent through. The speaker works fine.
I've checked all audio settings in control panel (mic boost and the rest) and Windows correctly shows the microphone detecting sound - even the sound recorder works. But Skype refuses to hear anything.
I was wondering if anybody had a solution to this seemingly common issue?

I managed to get the mic working in Skype running Windows 7 RC 64 bit on my Mac Book Pro.
It's a Skype problem. The program automatically selects the DIGITAL input. You need to change it to the internal microphone.
From Skype, go into Tools -> Options -> Audio Settings and make sure the microphone is selected instead of the digital input.

ITunes/Window 7 Creative XiFi Stuck in Stereo and ITunes Crashes

@ITunes/Window 7 Creative XiFi Stuck in Stereo and ITunes CrashesuI am about to return my Creative X-Fi USB card, cause it doesn't seem to handle anything other than 2 channel audio.
The Creative X-Fi driver only shows 2-channel audio in it's driver config, which leads me to beli've it can't do 5..
The first time I put ITunes into surround mode, I was installing the Creative software, it prompted to install. I said yes, and it crashed. A few reboots later... Now everytime I put ITunes into Surround mode in play back it crashes every time. I've uninstalled the driver and reinstalled to no avail. ITunes can't go into surround mode for HD video playback.
I am using the optical connection to my stereo,? the creative software doesn't seem to recognize it as a 5. device.
What am I missing here? 5. shouldn't be this hard to get working..
thanks!

I have the same problem (I use IE 7 as my browser). I have had the same problem with all the versions 7.1 as well. There have been numerous posts about it and it seems that Apple does not want to fix this. I uninstalled it and reinstalled version 7.0x via

this version is once again working fine!

Windows Update stuck on downloading on Server 2012

Hi,
Using VMWare Workstation 9, I created new virtual machine where I installed Windows Server 2012 Standard edition from MDSN disk en_windows_server_2012_x64_dvd_915478.iso In the Server 2012 virtual machine, when I go to check for updates it says
there are important updates available so I click on Install Updates. It then just gets stuck on downloading updates for hours and nothing ever happens. Stuck at 0 KB total, 0% complete. I am able to access web pages using Internet Explorer
with no problem so the machine does appear to have connectivity to the Internet. If I go to help, click on "What can I do if I'm having problems installing updates?" and click on "Tab or click to open the Windows Update troubleshooter"
it says "Windows Online Troubleshooting Service is not enabled for this version of Windows." Any suggestions or ideas?
Thanks,
Greg

I had a similar problem with a guest Windows 2012 R2 running on a Hyper-V host. I went to the network adapter in device manager in the guest and I disabled the "Large Send Offload Version 2 (IPv4)" option. Why? Well, this was also an issue previously when
guesting Windows 2008 where the symptom was an error 80072ee2 when retrieving updates. See this post
http://blog.ronnypot.nl/?p=310 for details. Anyway, I tried this and it worked for me. Hung before the change, worked after.
