Verizon In-Home Agent for Windows 8

Is In Home Agent available for Windows 8? I downloaded the one on website but its not working in Windows 8. Please suggest.

I like the online version of the app at www.verizon.com/repair
you can do a lot of the functions of the app without all the bloatware.
b)
As other have said it does something, it waste resources. Not sure on the MAC, but on PC's it has been none to drive at least one cpu to 100% (If you only have one its really bad). And the number of functions it does that you might ever want to do is minimal.
Personally I recommend that you uninstall it, and make sure you get all pieces of it.
c)
Count yourselves lucky, That program is more trouble than help. It took me about 90 seconds to realize this and to remove it from my system. If you have any real questions about anything more complex than hitting the enter key, you are not going to find any answers from the In Home Agent. Its all basic stuff and will not help with any real issues.
You will probably find better, more easy to understand and more usable answers on Google than you can in any verizon software i have seen to date.

In-Home Agent for Mac doesn't work - never has

I signed up for FIOS service several months ago and have never been able to get Verizon In-Home Agent to work. I can get as far as the level shown below, but when I select one of the grayed options, I get the spinning icon. (See it at lower left corner of the window.) That lasts for a few minutes, then nothing happens - it just goes back to the same window.
I even tried clicking the "Click here to provide your Feedback." I get the same icon (hard to see, but it's to the left of that link), then back to the same window.
Running Mac OS X 10.6.8.
Any ideas?

I just got FIOS in my all-Mac household. Nothing works for the Mac in FIOS. Not the FIOS t.v. widgets, In-Home Agent or anything else. Verizon is the most Mac unfriendly telecom company I've ever seen. Ironic if you think about what its products are.
All that will work on a Mac is that it will connect to the Internet. Period.
Verizon, would it really be too much cost or trouble to develop more Macintosh options?

Verizon In Home Agent Annoyance

I do not want this thing running unless I choose to start it up. How do I disable autorun or if I can't do that, how do I uninstall it from Windows XP.
Solved!

First thing I tried, but there is nothing in the list of installed software called Verizon In Home Agent. Is it under some other program name?
I see it in my add/remove programs as
Vz In Home Agent
I also see it in my start menu as
Verizon->Fios->In Home agent
However I then STUPIDLY selected it and it said it had an update and I let it run.
The update didn't complete properly - they've messed up the msi installer package script
and after it fails my start up menu looks just like yours.
Try clicking on the last empty item in the menu, I did, it then completed the agent install and you can remove it normally

Does the 2.1 web policy agent for Windows 2003 work on a 64 bit OS ?

No. 64bit support is not there for 2.1 agents on Windows.

Has anyone installed the Verizon In-Home agent on Moutain Lion?

I am having a lot of trouble with Verizon telephone service and they want me to install Verizon In-home Agent on my MacBook Air. Has anyone had any trouble with that app? I have Verizon Freedom Essentials phone service, a misnomer to say the least.

How do I cancel the replacement remote order I made in error from Verizon In-Home Agent? Please reply ASAP.

In-Home Agent and Windows 7, 64 bit

I tried this earlier in response to a message and got no response. I will try again. The In-Home Agent may be supposed to work with Windows 7, but it falls quite short on my Windows 7-64. The TV section is fogged out and has no information. It will not retrieve SSID or WEP keys, but only comes up with a blank screen (i.e. nothing happens). It finds no Verizon e-mail on my computer. There is a possible javascript problem:In closing the Agent, "an error has occurred in the script on this pageLine: 1Char: 1Error: Invalid Character URL: file://C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Verizon/FiOS/ihs/hnm/js/contentslider.js
Besides the javascript error, another problem might be that my e-mail address is [email protected], which then relays it to [email protected] I am not about to change that. Can the agent be made to work properly?

Could you guys at least make it FAIL on Windows 7 64-bits? Every time I need something I get prompted and re-directed to use InHome agent. I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit and the inhome agent takes liek 4-5 minutes to come up, the feedback button takes like 3 minutes to "load a form" and then gives you a blank page, nothing works. I hate it that something that should take 30 seconds to do causes me to spend 1/2 an hour fighting your software. The same goes for your website, unfortunately. I like Fios, but when I recommend it I tell people "Verizon has just about the WORST support software in the industry". Don't expect a lot from their web site, their voice mail on a PC, their order management system, etc., etc., etc". Very aggravated. Dave I have to agree with Dave. I also have W7 Ultimate x64 and I removed the V* sw because it was bloatware. Also, it's ridiculous that sometimes it takes forever for the V* website to load when I don't have a bandwidth issue (I've run speedtest while waiting for the V* site to load). As far as IHA, the messages weren't very helpful. When will V* start to care about the user experience, especially from a support perspective? I also tell everyone that FIOS is great, as long as it works. If you need help, fugitabotit! Ordering things on the web should be easy, like DirecTV, not a CF like the V* site. If I could get the HD D* signal, I'd go back, just because the user experience is so much better than V*...

In home agent and Windows 7

My laptop uses Windows 7 and the in-home agent installed but said support for my OS was unavailable. What steps do I take to manually setup my laptop to the 9100EM router?

If you're connecting the laptop by a hard wire, just connecting the ethernet cable should provide a connection, provided that the LAN connections TCP/IP settings are set to use the router's DHCP.
If you're connecting wirelessly, simply select the E/SSID or network name from the list of available networks. You can get this list by clicking on the network icon in your system tray by the clock. When you go to connect to the network, it'll ask you for an encryption key. You want to input the WEP key. Both the ESSID and WEP key can be found on a label on your router.
Alternatively, I've heard that in-home agent will run in Windows 7 but you have to enable compatibility mode for XP or Vista when you run it.

Need older version of In Home Agent for Mac

I have used In-Home Agent several times to troubleshoot my emails, etc. Recently I got the latest version for Macintosh but it won't run on my computer. It requires OS X 10.7 and I am running 10.6.8.
Is there somewhere to download the previous version?

Try the In-Home Agent-Feedback form located at www.verizon.com/connect
And that looks like it goes to a group at verizon. Maybe they can get you connected with a link.

EM12c and GC11g Agent for Windows 2003 R2 64 bit

Hello Everyone,
I have setup a GC 11g on Oracle Linux 64 bit to monitor the servers in the data center.
The problem is, I'm having difficulties installing an agent in Windows 2003 R2 64 bit.
Few months ago when I checked the certification matrix for GC 11g Agent, I saw that it didn't support Windows 2003 R2 64 bit platform.
Apparently, now I cannot choose 11.1.0.1.0 in the certification matrix anymore and have left with 12.1.0.1.0 and 12.1.0.2.0.
However, even the 12c also doesn't put Windows 2003 R2 64 bit platform in the list of supported OS platform.
The strange thing is Windows 2003 R2 32 bit is supported.
So, my questions are:
1. Is there any of you who was successful in implementing the EM12c or GC11g agent on Windows 2003 R2 64 bit?
2. If you are successful, did you experiencing any problem after the installation and during the installation phase?
3. Can I use 10.2.0.5.0 agent which is supported to be installed on Windows 2003 R2 64 bit and managed by either GC11g or EM12c?
Thank you,
Adhika

Background agents for Windows Phone scheduled duration

Hi! Sorry for my bad English. Scheduled duration for periodic agents in windows phone is 25 seconds. I want load music for user in background and I use periodic agents, but I need more than 25 seconds. Can I do something like this ?
protected override void OnInvoke(ScheduledTask task)
//Method that load song async
// but we don't wait it in periodic task
LoadSongAsync();
NotifyComplete();

Hi! Background tasks in Windows Phone are intended for small work ítems, to preserve battery life. You can check the ResourceIntensiveTask:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/microsoft.phone.scheduler.resourceintensivetask(v=vs.105).aspx
If you need more tan 25 seconds to play music because you're trying to download it,
as suggested by Eric Fleck, remember you can stream the music from the server.
There is no need to download it.

NAC Agent for Windows 7

Any ideas on when the NAC agent will be support on Windows 7? Version 4.6.2.113 installs but doesn't work properly. Thanks

In the event logs are you seeing any failed authentications? Also can you enable trace on all the logging categories and download a log bundle.
Look for the nac_manager.log file that has the timestamp of the user authentication. See if there are any issues with the OOB communication...along with ldap.
Thanks,
Tarik Admani
