Thunderbird 17.0.8 won't update; Lightning won't work with it.

I have Thunderbird version 17.0.8 which I have repeatedly tried to update. I'm on Windows 7 Home Premium. I've also tried installing the Lightning calendar, which apparently worked but it won't allow any data entry. In other words, it's apparently there but it looks like a ghost.
The update screen for Thunderbird tells me I'm at the update centre but the activity indicator just keeps going round and round ad infinitum.
The posted solutions don't appear to address my Windows version, although I confess to being no expert.
So the ultimate question is: should I be able to update Thunderbird 17.0.8 and should I be able to use Lightning with it?
Many thanks.

Download the latest version of Thunderbird (currently 24.4.0) and install it.

The corresponding version of Lightning is 2.6.4.

My Apps won't update on my iPhone 4 with iOS6

I strated to updated all my Apps, through the App Store App on my phone - usually it would do this via the wifi slowly app by app. But not this time. It just said they were all waiting!
So I updated all the Apps in my itunes on my PC, but they won't update on my iphone (4) with iOS6.
During the sync it says it is installing on all of the Apps that need updates (now about 20 as have been trying for days to sort out) get half way through the 'installing process' and then when the sync has 'finished' all the updating apps are half way through and just stop.
Have tried to delete apps on handset in order to reload but won't let me, as it says they are all waiting.....
Help this is driving me mad and I cant use things like my dropbox app which I need for work as it is waiting to update.....
A message pops up saying: Unable to Dowmload Applications 'Dropbox and 18 other applications could not be installed at this time.

Not sure.
Perhaps you can explain the symptoms? What is happening on your phone.

[svn:osmf:] 13494: Update build script to work with Flex 4 SDK.

Update build script to work with Flex 4 SDK.

    osmf/branches/flex4/build/build.xml

No, you don't need Flash Builder to use the Flex SDK. If you download the SDK and unzip it, you'll find a 'bin' directory that has the mxmlc compiler in it. You can compile Actionscript or MXML files using that.
./mxmlc MyFlexApp.mxml
If you are building an AIR application, you will use amxmlc
./amxmlc MyAIRFlexApp.mxml
Then, launch your AIR application using adl
./adl.exe MyAIRFlexApp-app.xml
Hope this helps,

I bought an iphone4s before my carrier put my sim in it i updated itunes now wont work with my sim

I bought an iphone4s before my carrier put my sim in it i updated itunes now wont work with my sim

Hello Aaron1658,
It sounds like you are unable to activate your phone with the SIM provided to you by your carrier. Try these steps in the following article to help you troubleshoot what it happening, named:
iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3424
Symptoms
Your iPhone may display one of the following messages when you attempt to activate it:
"Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable."
"The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported"
"The iPhone is not recognized and cannot be activated for service."
"iTunes was unable to verify your device."
Restart the iPhone.
Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
Restore the iPhone.
If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.
If this is not what you are referring to, would you provide some more information about what is happening? Any error messages, prompts, etc.?
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Will the lightning USB adapter work with regular USB jump drives?

Will the lightning USB adapter work with regular USB jump drives?

Not really.
Technically, with some USB drives (I've had a 50% success rate) you can import photos or videos off the drive - thi those photos or video follow a very strict naming convention.
But you cannot import anything but photos or video and there is zero support to write off the iPad to the flash drive....so while it technically may work, it's so limited to effectively not work.

[svn] 1317: Updates to get flex working with the Vector stuff.

Log Message:
Updates to get flex working with the Vector stuff. Had to add support for the new name type, and new applytype opcode to the Optimizer/Merger that flex uses. Also had to slightly change how the instantiated vector classes find their declared methods. Previously they were copied into the new class, but now they just point to the original vector class.

despite the workaround, it doesn't fix the real problem. It shouldn't be a huge deal for adobe to add support for multiple svn versions. Dreamweaver is the first tool i've used that works with svn that doesn't support several types of svn meta data. If they're going to claim that Dreamweaver supports svn is should actually support svn, the current version, not a version several years old. This should have been among the first patches released, or at least after snow leopard came out (and packaged with it the current version of svn).
does anyone know if the code that handles meta data formatting is something that is human readable, or where it might be, or is it in compiled code.
i signed up for the forums, for the sole purpose of being able to vent about this very frustrating and disappointing situation.

Genuine Apple lightning charger not working with my iPhone 5S. a notification comes up that's says 'this cable is not a genuine Apple product and may not work reliably' and although the charging symbol comes up, it does not charge

genuine Apple lightning charger not working with my iPhone 5S. a notification comes up that's says 'this cable is not a genuine Apple product and may not work reliably' and although the charging symbol comes up, it does not charge - went to Apple in Milton keynes to get a replacement charger this weekend that does not work as well!

Well, if this problems is so old I think it is strange that Apple hasen't fixed the bug long time ago, and certainly after the release of iOS 8.1.
Well, thank you very much for your answer, Lawrence Finch. I think the best thing to do is to send the phone to repair, if there is no solution to fix this by my self. I will anyway call the Apple support tomorrow, but I don't think they will illuminate me...

I'm using an ipad mini and facebook won't update. What's wrong with it?

I'm using an ipad mini and it won't update facebook. There's no other updates to do with it and I can download apps. I've had the ipad since about the end of august sometime.
Thank you

There are a number of other posts about not being able to download the update to the Facebook app, and I also can't download it (on my iPad nor my computer's iTunes) - I assume that there is a problem at Apple's end which they need to fix

Will the iphone 5 digital av adaptor (lightning to hdmi) work with the projector input on my new Sony PJ780VE Videocamera when I connect my iPhone 5 to it?

Hello....I am new here...first posting.....I have recently bought an iphone 5 and also a new Sony PJ780VE camcorder but with a built in projector that allows external input. I am wondering if anyone knows whether the iphone 5 lightning to Digital AV (HDMI) adaptor will work with this Sony projector input okay if I go ahead and purchase the adaptor from Apple. The reason I ask is that I read on the net that Sony are announcing an adaptor for iphone 5 to allow this connection....at least that's my understanding of this....so do I need a proprietary Sony adaptor to facilitate this connection???

i have the same problem but had nothing to do with an update, it worked christmas day charged overnight and didn't work the next day

Why won't my dr beats solo work with iPhone 6

iphone 6 won't work with Dr beats solo

When I tried the headsets again, they all work. I didn't have one of them plugged in far enough. I guess didn't want to breakanything. Thanks for your reply. All fixed!!

Why won't my 7th generation nano work with my Mac Book 10.5.8 Itunes

I just got a used 7th gen Nano. When I plug it into my Mac Book with Mac OSX version 10.5.8 I get a pop up saying that my itunes needs to be updated. When I go to update it says I have the most recent update. What do I do can I even use this ipod?

1. Because older versions of iTunes don’t contain the code needed to work with it.
2. Click here, buy the DVD, back the computer up, install it, and run Software Update twice.

Will the Updater 5.1.1 work with LabView 5.0?

I have LabView 5.0 (student). If I run Updater 5.1.1, will it work with my current version?

No. The way LabVIEW releases go, you'd have to pay to upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1 and then use the updater. Versions with a third number are bug fixes and are free to download but only for a specific version. Thus 5.1.1 was a bug fix of 5.1 and 6.0.1 and 6.0.2 were bug fixes of 6.0.

Quicktime won't update, itunes won't open...having no luck :(

I'm getting an error message when I try to download the current quicktime. iTunes won't open without it. The error message is below:
It says "Could not open key:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\QuickTimePlayerLib.QuickTimePlayerApp\CLSID. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel"
I tried a link that was posted in another discussion about manually editing the registry and it did not change anything. I still get the same error message. I've actually looked over quite a few suggestions in other discussions (like deleting quicktime all over the place and trying to reinstall it) and nothing seems to work. I finally was able to get the newest version of itunes downloaded. However, when I go to launch itunes it will not open b/c it says that i need the newest version of quicktime (which i cannot download). When I try to download it via standalone, it gives me a new error message similar to the original except now the location is QuickTime.QuickTime rather than QuickTimePlayerLib.QuickTimePlayerApp. Before I uninstalled QT, I was able to edit the registry for the QT Player LIb and App. Since they did nothing I unistalled it again. However, after I uninstalled it, (and reinstalled just itunes which it finally updated) I tried to reinstall and it would not install because the new error message is the most resent one above... in the registry it will not let me change/save any permissions changes to QuickTime.QuickTime. I've again tried to uninstall it but now QT isn't there at all. I've been at this thing for a week and nothing seems to be working... any suggestions? I would love help!!!!
Oh, and I don't know if this will help at all, but I have an ipod mini from like 2003... when I couldn't get itunes to update at all to the current version I decided to uninstall itunes and my ipod mini... so then i had to reinstall my ipod with the cd software that came with it which also installed itunes... it worked fine and would open... then I tried to update itunes again and somehow i managed to get it to update itunes... however, when i go to launch itunes it won't let me b/c of the version of quicktimes i currently have. Thanks in advance for any help!

so i tried to download the windows installer update from the link you gave me but now i'm getting a different error and it won't let me download the installer. The error reads:
Windows Script Host
Script: C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP000.TMP\StartMsl.vbs
Line: 1
Char: 1
Error: ActiveX component can't create object: 'Scripting.FileSystemObject"
Code: 800A01AD
Source: Microsoft VBScript runtime error
I have no idea what this means or how to fix it. Please help!
