Skype for Windows 8 will not work

Hi. I have a HP laptop with Windows 8 already installed. It'When I first got the laptop my skype worked fine but a few weeks ago I logged out and it won't work. This message appears everytime I try to log in: "Ooops... there was a problem. Please restart skype or try again." This happens after an extremely long loading time. I uninstalled and reinstalled Skype for Windows 8. I tried this several times and it still will not work. I greatly appreciate any help.

The same thing is happening to my Skype on new Windows 8 Ansus Laptop. Can someone at Skype please resolve this issue.

Safari for Windows will not log into IIS sites with Windows Authentication

Safari for Windows will not log into IIS sites with Windows Authentication enabled. The IIS log has thousands of login attempts from Safari that result in 401 errors.
I disable Windows Authentication on IIS and it works fine. The problem with that is that my Windows clients stop working properly with seemless logins when I disable this.
The expected behavior is that Safari will work with basic authentication when NTLM does not work. That would result in a password prompt followed by a successful login instead of Safari stopping at "Loading" while hammering the IIS logs.
It does this on all machines that I have tried.
Any ideas or is this a bug?

I noticed that as well. I have to wonder if it's due to not making note of the the different end of line characters between Mac OS X and Windows in code.

HT4839 the iPhone Configuration Utility 3.6/2.2 for Windows will not start up/load anymore.

Hello.
the iPhone Configuration Utility 3.6 for Windows will not start up/load anymore.
It worked fine at first, then I tried to start it up today and I got an error:
failed to create an ipc port access is denied
Now there is no message at all. Just wont launch.
I find NO support at Apple. I have seen about 20 other cries for help on these forums and no seems to have received any help for this. Does anyone know how to get this Utility working?
I am using Windows XP SP3
I have tried upgrdading to .NET 4 SP1 from .NET 3.5 SP1 and that didnt work so went back the other way and still no change.
I tried completely uninstalling and deleting all references in Regedit and reinstalling from the start about 4 times.
I tried completely uninstalling and then going back to an older version (2.2) and it doesn't work either.
Unfortunately there is no help on Apply that I can find and trying to find an -actual email support for Apple software or products is a joke- (man, nothing is more aggravating when you need product help and the provider hides or completely does away with any way to contact them for help ro sends you on an hour long search for it...)
I need to get this working as I am providing an easy iphone configure for my VPN service. Can anyone help?
THanks!!

Lion - 2004 MS Office for Mac will not work

My 2004 version of Microsoft Office for Mac will not work in Lion. I suspect because this is a PowerPC application. My question is this:
Is there any program out there which will map the PowerPC to an Intel format? Other than trying to seel more products, I am surprised that Apple does not supply a mapping program for products made by Microsoft for the Apple devices.

Eric, can you tell me where please? It's not mentioned on the Lion compatibility pages at all. (http://www.apple.com/uk/macosx/what-is/compatibility.html) nor on the 'how to upgrade' page (http://www.apple.com/uk/macosx/how-to-buy/)

I am on Mac OS 10.6.7 and Java Plug-in 2 for NAPI will not work in FF4.0?

When trying to attend a webinar which uses the Java 2 NAPI plug-in I get an error message in FF 4.0 saying I need to install thiis plug-in, which is already installed. I have gone to the add-on manager and disabled this plug-in restarted and enabled it again, but it still will not work.
Any ideas?

I forgot one detail. This happened while I was having trouble seeing the mouse cursor (I use Apple's Magic Mouse). It had disappeared briefly. I had to drag the cursor out of the Firefox Window for it to reappear. I accidentally entered full screen view while the cursor was not visible.

Changed Apple ID password, now iMessage for iPad will not work

Hey there,
I changed my Apple ID password this morning but when I tried to use iMessage on my iPad this evening - and was prompted for the new password - iMessage would no longer work. My Apple ID and my iMessage email addresses are different and, although I would like to believe this is the problem, the fact is the messages are being sent to my email inbox rather than to my iPad iMessage app. Further, the "send" button is disabled when I try to send anything from the iPad.
Any ideas?

Also, I just tried FaceTime and that is also not working.
The email address I would like to use appears in the list of email addresses in Settings>iMessage, but it is greyed out so I cannot access it. My apple id keeps appearing there despite my constant clicking on "forget this address." I tried using my apple id as the default email address but even that will not work.
I'm about ready to throw all things iDevice at a wall!

Open link in new window will not work

I am running Firefox 3.6.12 on Windows XP and have never had a problem until just recently. If I right click and select "open link in new window", a new window will open, but it is blank. This started about a week ago while playing Pogo...the game rooms will not load because they open in a new window. Now I am noticing that it is with everything, not just Pogo.
I have tried checking and unchecking the "block pop-ups" option and the new windows will not load either way.
Any help would be appreciated!!!
Thanks!

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Unable to Burn CDs in iTunes for Windows: (Will not fit, but it should.)

I am attempting to fix an issue with a friend's iTunes for Windows. Although previously this computer using this media was able to burn audio CDs through iTunes, recently, an error has appeared before any burn. When loading the proper amount of time to fit on a CD, iTunes claims:
"The songs in this playlist will not fit on one Audio CD"
"Do you want to create multiple Audio CDs with this playlist split across them?"
"This will require more than one CD to complete."

Thanks for the tip re. cntrl v. I've copied the diagnostics below.
I've tried all of Apple's troubleshooting advice without success. For example, my burner (and drivers and cables etc) all work fine. I've also tried all of their 'advanced' steps in relation to downloading GEAR drivers etc. Nada.

Itunes 11.1.3 for windows 7 not working

I have the same issue as the one mentioned on this page and have tried the solutions, but they have not worked for me.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123
I've also looked at this long forum discussing the same issue, but it is about an older version of iTunes
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2770908?start=0&tstart=0
The same message still hangs on my launcher, "Accessing iTunes Store", for an indefinite amount of time and it doesn't change.
I have installed itunes on a separate Windows Vista laptop, and it has the same issue.
The mulititude of proposed solutions in the aforementioned articles have not worked for me. What can I do, and any help is greatly appreciated

Can you check something for me please? I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
Quit iTunes first.
In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
If you have a 32-bit Windows, open the "Program files" folder.
If you have a 64-bit Windows, open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
Open the "iTunes" folder.
Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
Can you access the Store now?
(Permissions issues can sometimes mimic other problems ... if that's what is going on, the "Run as administrator" thing can sometimes get past the issue.)

Air Display for Windows 7 not working

I recently installed Air Display v1.6.1 for my iPad 2 and Air Display for Windows.
Both my laptop and iPad are connected to the same WiFi.
Whenever I click on my iPad's name in Air Display on my laptop, nothing happens. My iPad's screen still stays on the Air Display instruction screen with no flashing of the screen as I see on YouTube videos. Any help would be appreciated .

Anyone got any ideas as to what I should do.
I have tried:

The reason I would like to get this working is I am trying to use Polycom PVX video conferencing software (I need it for work) and so my idea was to run it in a Parallels VM as its only available for Windows.
Hope you can help

HP Help Number for Windows 7 not working

I have a problem with my Windows 7 upgrade. The instructions from HP say that in the US to call 1-888-447-0150. That number answers, there is a beep and the line is cut off.
Why is the number given in the HP instructions not working?

Yes, it doesn't work for me either. It connects, then a very short music blip plays and it's then transferred to nowhere and disconnects.
HP has gone to the dogs!
My install of Windows 7 got to the last item on the list, about three quarters of the way through the install (the green bar) and has hung for about 10 hours now without a sign of movement, and HP is nowhere to be found to help.

Reinstalled Itunes for Windows will not recognize ipod touch 3rd generation.

Itunes for Windows and PC will not recognize my ipod touch 3rd generation. Also it will not fully charge using a brand new apple brand power adapter and cable. I have already uninstalled all Apple software on PC and reinstalled. I've tried every step suggested by Apple online iPod touch Troubleshooting Assistant.

the best thing i think you could do is go to an apple store or uninstall itunes and reinstall it one more time and see what happens
