Upgrading to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1 on the Yoga 3 Pro

Just what was it like for forum guru XBrav to carry out the upgrade of Windows on his Yoga 3 Pro from Windows 8 to Windows 10? Read on to find out how he found the experience.

I upgraded to Windows 10. I am concerned that the it downloaded poorly, as the opening article in this page suggests. I had real problems: my screen did not tilt correctly as I went from tablet to tent to the keyboard configuration. I lost all touchscreen operations, I had no touch screen at all. Cortana did not work even though she did configure my microphone. Some apps worked poorly; my backgammon game became much smaller on the screen. MSWord did not work at all. It did not go into screen mode when closed, it hibernated and then sometimes did not turn on correctly at all. I reverted back to Windows 8.1 and all is good again. Does anyone have any ideas about upgrading to Windows 10, which I still would like to do? Should I remove the files from C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download and then go to Command prompt and enter wuauclt.exe /updatenow? Thanx, Queneau

Upgraded to windows 7 64 strange behavour CS4 Premiere Pro

Hi,
I upgraded to windows 7 64 and are using Premiere pro CS4 for the first time on this system.
I noticed when I click the minus sign (at the top right) to temporarily close the program the little icon shows up at the bottom of the screen like it does with any program on Windows 7.
But unfortunately when I try to let it appear on screen again nothing happens. I have to reboot the system to get it working again.
Also the timeline starts flickering when I play a sequence is this normal?!
Any one with a solution is very very welcome to reply!
Thanks David

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)

I just upgraded my data plan from 6GB to 10GB for the same rate of $80 is this a promotion? If yes, when does the promotion end? Thank you.

I just upgraded my data plan from 6GB to 10GB for the same rate of $80 per month. Is this a promotion? If yes, when does the promotion end?

In most cases you keep the same plan and promotions even when you upgrade the phone. There are exceptions for very old plans and unlimited data, but essentially mrhelper is correct. You have option to "keep current plan" when upgrading. so in most cases, your statement that you will go back to $100 for 10 GB when upgrading is incorrect. What was your particular circumstance?

Hi arewers,
Do you have Adobe Reader installed, by any chance? If so, are you aware if it was the PPC or Intel version which you installed? In any case, for the time being, have a quick look in 'HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/' using Finder and see if there's an Adobe plugin lying around. If there is, try moving it out of the folder and restarting Safari.

HT4972 Upgrade iPhone software version from 4.3.4 to the latest available

I am trying to upgrade my iPhone software version from 4.3.4 to the latest and keep getting this message whenever I hit <Update> or <Restore>. "The iPhone software update server could not be contacted" - what should I do?

Start by making sure you have disabled any firewall or antivirus programs.

Now that I've reinstalled Norton since upgrading to Windows 10 on Thursday, the

I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 Thursday night. I then downloaded Norton from the Comcast website after signing in with my Comcast account since the upgrade apparently did not carry over my Comcast provided Norton antivirus suite. After an initial snafu, it downloaded properly and is working. However, when i open Norton to run updates or scans manually, the bottom of that window (or pop up) says "Subscription Status: Activation Reguired Activate Now" When I click on Activate Now it apparently tries to connect with Norton and then defaults back to the initial window (or pop up). Seems to work fine but why am I getting that prompt? What do I do?

Thanks for the feedback SteveGreene. I am pleased you got things working correctly again.
The agent got things fixed quickly because they have had to do it so many times - with so many users trying to install Win 10 as soon as it came out rather than checking to make sure that Norton was upgraded prior to installing WIn 10.
It is a long story I do not care to repeat everytime it is asked - but if you do some research on the Norton Forums, you will see the first version update for Win 10 was the bomb and many things had to be corrected. IMHO -Comcast users were lucky they did not receive that update and go throughy all the probelms it caused, but rather Norton waited until they had it righyt before the update was relased to Comcast users. The poor part of it was Norton did not bother to tell the Comcast (nor the retail product users) that their Norton products had to be upgraded to version 22.5.2.15 prior to being able to insatl Win 10 and have Norton continue to work.

I upgraded to Elements 12 from Elements 8 and now the Organizer locks up just as it is starting.

Organizer first shows a box stating "restoring People Recognition Data" and then "Elements 12 has stopped working". I am using Windows 8.

Is that a large catalog from some previous version that is opened by default?

I have recently upgraded to iPhone 5 from an iPhone 4. The 4 has been given to a family member and the contacts were deleted. Now they're missing on both phones. How do I get them back?

As the title says. I've lost all of my contacts, from both phones and icloud.

That's the way things are supposed to work...all devices using the same iCloud account are kept in sync. You delete on one device, & it deletes on all, including iCloud. Unless you have a backup that contains your contacts, or they are in a supported application on your computer, they are gone.
You should have deleted the iCloud account, on the iPhone 4, before giving the phone away.

I upgraded to iPhone 4s from 3g, can I use the car charger for the 3g with the 4s?

I have a new 4s and wish to use my existing car charger with the phone. The cables that came with the 4s look like the cables for the 3g and ipod I have, but appearances can be deceptive. Just wish to know if I have to buy a new charger or will my existing one work?

It should work just fine.

From what I've read the new Macbook Pros do not recognize a line-in through the headphone jack. I want to record my guitar on GarageBand without using the built in mic. Any advice?

I have all the adapters and stuff like that, I have recorded a lot of things on audacity on my p.c. For $2500 you would think they would have at least kept the input through the headphone jack feature in this mac. I am using an acoustic and an eletric guitar and I don't want to spend more than about $20 to resolve this.

I had a fast tracks usb and it worked great and at $99 it is well worth it. But if you plan on recording vocal and guitar you will need a XLR plug on your mic because it only has two inputs 1/4 and XLR.
Also you don't need a multichannel interface to record multiple tracks, only multiple tracks at the same time.
If your doing all the instruments yourself the fast track or fast track pro may be a good idea for now and then when you need it upgrade to a more expensive firewire interface.
And make sure whatever you get will work with your intel mac.
I just read some of the negative comments about the fast track usb. I don't think some of these people know what there doing. Comments like it only records on the left channel shows user error.

How do i tranfer all my data across from my old macbook to the new macbook pro (It doesn't have Firewire port), How do i tranfer all my data across from my old macbook to the new macbook pro (It doesn't have Firewire port)

I have recently just bought a macbook pro and it doesn't have a firewire port. So how can i transfer all my music, photos, docs and videos across. Any help ???

My new-ish MBP has a Firewire port, but it's not the old-style one you might be familiar with. Look at the ports for the Firewire symbol (looks like a Y). You will need an adapter to connect an old-style Firewire cable to it. (Yeah, I know there are names for them and "old-style" isn't one of them, but they slip my mind at the moment.)
Alternately, since you should be backing up anyway, do a full backup from the old machine and then import from the backup on the new one. See my Mac Backup Guide* ASAP if you aren't currently backing up!
