Thinkvantage "access connections windows wireless service" has stopped working

My new computer is a  T400 running Windows 7 (lenovo disk installed after purchase) .
While it still connects to the internet through the Windows(?) "open network and sharing center the Thinkvantage Technologies "access connections windows wireless service"  has stopped working.  It worked fine for a while (4-6 weeks).
Any ideas on how to get it started again?  
Thanks
John

Thank you for your reply.  I'm just not sure what "it" to uninstall or where to get the new "it" to download.  Would you mind adding those details for me?  I appreciate your help

  • Windows Connection Manager Profile Installer Has Stopped Working

    Hi all, I thank all who can help me with this problem beforehand and will do so after.
    I am an IT technician at a university in South Africa. I am trying to install a custom made VPN program that works perfectly on every other machine but not this one laptop.
    It is a Lenovo G580 laptop running Windows 7. Every time I try to install the VPN i get the error message that Microsoft Connection Manager Profile Installer has stopped working.
    I have made sure all the updates are installed.
    I have done disk check.
    I have done System File Check.
    I have done Windows Repair.
    I have coppied the cmstp.exe and ole32.dll files from one windows to the problem computer.
    I have taken permission of both the above mentioned files.
    I have done anti-virus scans and anti-malware scans.
    I have tested that other applications(not VPN's) install correctly.
    I have tested that the VPN installed correctly on other computers and pulled a new one to make sure the application was not corrupted.

    Hi,
    Generally speaking, this error can be caused by one or several of the below factors:
    a. The dll file is deleted accidentally from your system
    b. The dll file is damaged due to virus or spyware infection
    c. improper software removal
    d. The dll file was overwritten by an incompatible version.
    e. Outdated hardware drivers
    f. Too many invalid/obsolete registry entries.
    g. Related registry entries is corrupted.
    I would like to suggest you try the following steps to check the results:
    a. Do a system restore to undo recent system changes. If the error is just caused by the file getting corrupted or damaged, performing a system restore would help you to get a fresh copy back and also fix the related error well at the same time.
    b. Update the drivers for hardware devices and install any available Windows updates.
    c. Test in a new user account. If it works, please refer to Fix a corrupted user profile.
    Fix a corrupted user profile:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile
    If the individual troubleshooting advice above is unsuccessful, performing a startup repair or repair installation should restore all Windows DLL files to their working versions.
    Hope it helps.

  • Apple Mobile Device Service Has Stopped working

    Okay, I'm running 32-bit windows vista Buisness service pack one, and am getting the following message whenever I open iTunes: Apple Mobile Device Service has stopped working and was closed. This is not an issue connecting my iPod, which still connects fine, the issue arrises when I try to sync my new iPhone, and it is not recognized. Windows does recognize my iPhone, as seen in device manager and the fact that the phone charges when connected. iTunes will fail to recognize it due to the aforementioned error in starting itunes. The error log looks like this:

    I have gone through the basic troubleshoot on apple doing the following:
    restarting iphone

    sorry, i maxed out space in the last post.
    The steps I have taken to remedy the error are the following:
    restart iPhone
    restart computer
    check usp ports
    reinstall entire iTunes package(updater, iTunes, quicktime, apple mobile device support) several times
    I have also tried:
    -Running itunes as administrator, which I already am
    -restarting the apple mobile device service in services
    -checking for third party conflicts by having only itunes and the apple mobile device start when the computer starts and installing/running itunes with my anti-virus off.
    -updating AMDS(apple mobile device service) with older versions of the software from 8.1 and 7.7
    -deleting usbaal.sys from 8.2 and reinstalling 7.7 and 8.1 version
    I have tried various other fixes found online, In addition to spending two hours on the phone with various apple "experts" who were baffled by my problem.
    This problem is giving me the upmost frustration and I am becoming incredibly angry at both vista and iTunes. Please help
    -Kyle
    P.S. If you didn't catch it, i'm running the latest driver updates and the latest itunes, 8.2

  • MobileMe Services has stopped working

    I recently updated iTunes and downloaded iCloud on my PC (with Vista 32-bit), since I use an iPhone and an iPad. Since then, each time I turn on Outlook 2003, a message comes on twice that says: "MobileMe Services has stopped working." I know many people have had this problem and some were able to address it by either repairing or removing MobileMe or re-installing iTunes. However, for some reason, when I go to Programs and Features, highlight iCloud or MobileMe Control Panel to uninstall, change, or repair them, the options "uninstall," "change," or "repair" do not appear. These options appear for other softwares but not for iCloud or MobileMe Control Panel. As a result, I am unable to do anything to these programs.
    I also followed the suggestion to remove the "COM add-in" for iTunes in Outlook but noticed it was not even enabled. Nevertheless, I removed it completely; however, the problem persists. Outlook takes a few minutes to come on following the appearance of the same message twice. I also noticed (after the download) that iCloud does not support Outlook 2003. I would like to uninstall it but do not know how to do so. Any suggestion?

    MobileMe was discontinued at the end of June 2012. The control panel should be removed if still present. See HT2992: MobileMe: Uninstalling the MobileMe Control Panel for Windows for details.
    Alternatively the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility (AKA MS Installer "Fixit") may help remove the component completely.

  • TS1717 iTunes 11 and Windows 7 (32 bit). iTunes crashes frequently (Windows message : "iTunes has stopped working and will be closed").

    iTunes 11.0.1.12 and Windows 7 (32 bit, latest version). iTunes crashes frequently (Windows message : "iTunes has stopped working and will be closed"). I may be trying to search for an App. or book (or anything else), trying to access iTunes store, checking for updates to Apps., inputting my password, etc. etc. I have uninstalled iTunes several times, reinstalled several times, but the error persists. I tried the iTunes 10 suggested fix of running in safe mode, but iTunes again crashed when I was trying to create a new ID.

    Still having this issue

  • Apple mobile device service has stopped working - continues

    Hi
    I have a 16GB iPhone with 02 in the UK.
    My first iPhone with 02 had trouble receiving calls with about 90% of incoming calls going straight to voice mail. I also couldn't backup that phone as every time I tried with iTunes, i got the message "Apple mobile device service has stopped working" about a minute into backup.
    This happened continually, I re-installed iTunes so many times, still with little luck. I tried a different cable too. All on a brand new Dell Vostro desktop PC.
    So, I took the phone back to 02 with these problems. 02 promptly replaced my iPhone.
    Now, I have exactly the same problem. I obviously have nothing to restore on the iPhone as I was never able to back it up in the first place.
    Every time I try and backup the iPhone I get the error "Apple mobile device service has stopped working". Again i tried a different cable and have removed and re-installed iTunes several times.
    Anyone any ideas?
    Regards
    D

    I was having this same problem with my new iPad 3G. It was driving me insane and preventing me from syncing the iPad.
    I removed and re-installed all Apple components from my computer as recommended (in the recommended order). But, the problem persisted.
    The error message looked just like the one posted above:
    Problem signature
    Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
    Application Name: AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe
    Application Version: 16.691.14.1
    Application Timestamp: 4ba3b8fe

    Fault Module Version: 1.550.17.21
    Fault Module Timestamp: 4b8cb530

    Exception Offset: 0000db6b
    OS Version: 6.0.6002.2.2.0.768.3
    Locale ID: 1033
    The SOLUTION came when i discovered that there were two copies of CoreFoundation.dll on my computer.
    One was in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support.
    The other was in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support.
    I removed the copy of CoreFoundation.dll from the Mobile Device Support folder, and the problem vanished.
    I hope this helps.
    -Steven.

  • Licence service has stopped working

    Getting the above error when launching Dreamweaver CS4. Have tried all the "solutions" listed on Adobe site to no avail. The last "solution" cleared the error pop up , I get to accept the licence agreement then Dreamweaver crashes.
    Any advice appreciated.

    Hi Nancy,
    The original error code was /3 when the pop up "Licence service has stopped working" appeared. I went through all the solutions listed at Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS but it wasn't until I completed Solution 6 that the pop up disappeared. I get the licence agreement page click accept but nothing further happens.

  • I definitely have put this under the wrong catergory but i don't care, I was wondering why everytime i click on a video to play it says: Windows media player has stopped working

    Ok, so I made a video with Bandicam, and every time I click on it to play it (it is saved as an MP4), it just says: Windows Media Player has stopped working. Then it gives me two choices: Close the program OR look online for a solution. I REALLY want to
    post these videos, but I can't. If anyone could help that would be great!

    Hi juderocks14,
    Please first take a check with the other Players and see if they could play the MP4 file normally. If it can't be played, which means it might be corrupted. You may ask at the Bandicam side, or save the files again.
    If issue insists, take a try with the Troubleshooter (For Windows 7, 8 and 8.1):
    Open the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter
    Fix Windows Media Player video, and other media or library issues
    Or you may try to turn Windows Features on or off to reset Windows  Media Player:
    Turn Windows features on or off (Before turn it on again, please remember to reboot first)
    More reference:
    What happens if I turn off Windows Media Player?

  • Windows desktop gadgets has stopped working

    As of a few days ago my desktop gadgets have stopped working.  When I start Windows they appear to function normally for a minute or so then the error message "Windows desktop gadgets has stopped working" appears.  Sometimes there is a second attmept to launch the gadgets but it fails in the same manner.
    Worryingly for the general robustness of Windows 7, performing a System Restore to a time before the problem arose did NOT fix the problem. 

    I have found this solution and worked perfectly for me, you might want to try it out!
    I own no credit over this!
    Thanks to " Ramesh Srinivasan   "
     Is your Windows Sidebar (Windows Desktop Gadgets) crashing after adding a third-party gadget, with the error "Windows Desktop Gadgets has stopped working" or "Windows
    Sidebar has stopped working" (Windows Vista) at every start? You can stop the offending gadget from loading by editing the Windows Sidebar Gadgets settings file. Here are the instructions, which apply to Windows 7 and Windows Vista.
    If Sidebar.exe process is running, you wouldn’t be able to write to its settings file. Launch Task Manager (taskmgr.exe), select the sidebar.exe process and terminate it if it’s running.
    Click Start, type the following path in the Search box and hit ENTER.
    %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar
    (You can type it in the Run dialog as well.)
    The above location is where the desktop gadgets store their configuration information, in a file named Settings.ini
    First, make a copy of Settings.ini
    Double-click Settings.ini to open it in Notepad.
    Configuration information for the last installed desktop gadget is usually located at the end of the INI file. Using the PrivateSetting_GadgetName line as the hint, locate the corresponding [Section #], select all lines underneath
    and delete it. Trim any blank lines that may have resulted from the deletion.
    Then, move to the top of the INI file, and delete the Section# line that references the offending gadget. As you’ve removed the entries in [Section 5], also delete the following line:
    Section4="5"
    Trim any blank lines that may have resulted from the deletion, and save the Settings.ini file.
    Right-click on the Desktop, and click Gadgets. This starts the Sidebar.exe process and shows the gadgets listed in the Settings.ini file.

  • Starts to load homepage, then Windows message: "Firefox has stopped working" All this after a Firefox update

    Directly after an update, Firefox will no longer start. It begins to load my homepage, then fades away with the Windows message "Firefox has stopped working"
    Looking at Norton security history, I see it blocked plugin-container.exe about the time the update was being downloaded.

    I don't know if this is exactly the same problem, but here's what happened to me:
    One day when I opened Firefox I got a prompt for updates. I got upgraded to version 3.6.16. That was over a week ago. This morning, I opened Firefox, got a prompt for updates, clicked ok, and I ended up upgrading again to 3.6.16. Norton gave me a notification about some file being used by fewer than 100 people and having "medium risk", but I wasn't able to take any action, just read.
    Once that upgrade went through every time I tried to open Firefox, it'd pop up, I'd click no to "Do you want Firefox to be your default browser" and then it'd go white and freeze up. I'd get a message from Windows that there's a problem, Firefox has stopped working, it will be closed. No information was sent regarding the problem.
    When I'd open Firefox I'd see two tabs: one about the upgrade to 3.16.6 along with an invitation to upgrade to version 4, and another being my homepage to yahoo.com.
    I also have Internet Explorer, so I opened that, went to Firefox's website and downloaded version 4. So far that has taken care of the problem~I can use Firefox again.
    However, I did have a couple small difficulties while downloading version 4. Right off it would not immediately start running. That was blocked by my Norton. So I had to click on "click here". Also during the process I got a message about two add-ons being incompatible, so they were disabled, and no updates could be found. They were: Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant 1.2.1. and Norton Toolbar 4.6.
    I worried it was a virus but it seems like more of a compatibility problem involving maybe Norton? I have the 2010 version and haven't upgraded to Norton 2011 yet.
    Anyway, like I said, so far version 4 is working fine, but I thought I'd pass on the incident.

  • Apple Mobile Device Service has stopped working. Vista SP2, iTunes 10.5

    Hi there. I've been having an issue syncing my iPhone to iTunes. Here's a description of the problem:
    -With an up-to-date Apple Mobile Device Service, error windows constantly pop-up saying that it has stopped working. If I close the error window, another one pops up fifteen seconds later.
    -If I plug my iPhone into my computer, it is not recognized in iTunes, because Apple Mobile Device Service is not running.
    -This error does not occur on my desktop PC, so I have been able to sync my iPhone by loading all of my files onto a USB and transferring them onto it. However, I would much rather not.
    Here are the steps that I have taken:
    -Uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes 10.5 with firewall off
    -Individually uninstalled and reinstalled the Apple Mobile Device Service with firewall off
    -Stopped and Restarted the Apple Mobile Device Service in Administrative Tools -> Services
    -Extensively searched the internet for solutions
    -Replaced Apple Mobile Device Service for iTunes 10.5 with Apple Mobile Device Service for iTunes 10.1 (This worked PARTIALLY. The error windows have now stopped popping up altogether, but I cannot sync with iTunes because the Apple Mobile Device Service is out of date. It asks me to update it, I agree, and I get the Apple Mobile Device Service that spawns error windows and still does not allow me to sync my iPhone.)
    I am running Windows Vista SP2, and iTunes 10.5. My Internet Security suite is AVG Internet Security 2011. My iPhone is running iOS 5.0.0. Here is a full report of the error:
    Problem Event Name:    APPCRASH

    Just a shot in the dark, but have you downloaded any program from Megaupload, like MegaKey?  If so then that is your problem. I had been having the exact same problem for the past 2 weeks. I couldn't figure out what it was and tried everything that you have.. Then was on a board and someone mentioned Megakey. Having tried everything else, I uninstalled the program and reinstalled the current ITunes and AMDS. My Ipad and Iphone connected with no problem.

    I connect my iPhone to iTunes and it starts syncing and backing up my iPhone and when it gets to loading songs it gets to about the second song and a windows message pops up and says
    iTunes has stopped working
    Windows can check online for a solition to the problem (i have clicked this and nothing happens)
    and it also just tells me to close the program
    Its beyond frustrating now, its happened about 10 times
    I also downloaded the latest version of iTunes but that hasnt helped...
    Help!

    Maybe you should try to re-install iTunes cleanly as described below:
