VzTech help with McAfee Kudos

With everything that's been going on with Verizon lately and my dismay with the company I had no anticipations of my new issue being resolved.  However, I must say that the Verizon Technical Support helped me out with McAfee and the VISS.
The story goes like this,
When I opened McAfee and went to do the updates it just sat there, did nothing, no circle rotating, just said 0 complete.
Then I ran the MVT (McAfee Virtual Tech) and it showed 2 major errors that it could not fix:
1 - would not download the updated database
2 - Program Subscription Update Needed
So, I scanned my PC and found nothing, then I rebooted & ran the MVT. Same issues detected by the MVT.
Next step Verizon online Tech Support.
After granting the Tech permission to connect to my PC they seen exactly what I said & the errors replicated for them too.
The Tech asked if I tried a reinstall, no not yet.
Tech told me to wait while they talked to their backend Tech team on the "Program Subscription Update Needed" issue.
Tech decided that a conference call was in order.
They called me & conference with McAfee, and VzTech ended our session.
McAfee Tech then needed access to my PC, ok.
It took about 50min with McAfee who ended up uninstalling & reinstalling the software.
They stayed on the phone with me until the software was fully installed and working again & my PC was secured.
The whole process from Verizon Tech through McAfee Tech took approximately 1hr and 10min.
The only issues I had was understanding the heavy Indian accent from the McAfee Tech, but we got through it with a few "excuse me, can you repeat that again". And I wasnt able to save my session info from VzTech as the McAfee Tech closed all the windows in explorer oh well LOL
Thanks to the Verizon Tech team in assisting with the issues I had and getting it up and running again. Kudos!

Click on the shield bottom right of screen:
Select Virus and spyware protection
Select Scan your PC
Select Run a custom scan
Then there are a number of options for you to chooses what to scan.
However I would get a different anti virus software as the one thing I do not like about this is that it has a mind of its own when it comes to updates and will update when it wants to which slows the PC down and whatever you do you can not stop the update. This is very annoying if you are trying to do something which is time dependent.

  • P500 with McAfee

    I just received an order of P500's and im having trouble with them. I imaged them throught MDT and the Windows 7 x64 image deploys fine. The problem im having is that after McAfee encrypts the drive and the PC reboots I get a McAfee Endpoint Encryption error. Has anyone ran into this before? Thanks

  • Help with HP Laser Printer 1200se

    HP Support Line,
    Really need your assistance.  I have tried both contacting HP by phone (told they no longer support our printer via phone help), the tech told me that I needed to contact HP by e-mail for assistance.   I then sent an e-mail for assistance and got that reply today, the reply is as follows  "Randall, unfortunately, HP does not offer support via e-mail for your product.  However many resources are available on the HP web site that may provide the answer to your inquiry.  Support is also available via telephone.  A list of technical support numbers can be round at the following URL........."  The phone numbers listed are the ones I called and the ones that told me I needed to contact the e-mail support for help.
    So here I am looking for your help with my issue.
    We just bought a new HP Pavillion Slimline Desk Top PC (as our 6 year old HP Pavillion PC died on us).  We have 2 HP printers, one (an all-in-one type printer, used maily for copying and printing color, when needed) is connected and it is working fine with the exception of the scanning option (not supported by Windows 7).  However we use our Laser Printer for all of our regular prining needs.  This is the HP LaserPrinter 1200se, which is about 6 years old but works really well.  For this printer we currently only have a parallel connection type cord and there is not a parallel port on the Slimline HP PC.  The printer also has the option to connedt a USB cable (we do not currently have this type of cable).
    We posed the following two questions:
    1.  Is the Laser Jet 1200se compatible with Windows 7?
    and if this is the case
    2.  Can we purchase either a) a USC connection cord (generic or do we need a printer specific cord)? or b) is there there a printer cable converter adapater to attach to our parallel cable to convert to a USB connection?
    We do not want to purchase the USB cable if Windows 7 will not accept the connection, or if doing this will harm the PC.
    We really would appreciate any assitance that you might give us.
    Thank you,
    Randy and Leslie Gibson

    Sorry, both cannot be enabled by design.  That said, devices on a network do not care how others are connected.  You can print from a wireless connection to a wired (Ethernet) printer and v/v.

  • Need help with duplicate print jobs over network that I can't cancel

    I have the Photosmart Premium All-in-One on my home network.  My kids who each have laptop running Windows 7 and are connected via wireless to the printer via a DLINK DIR-655.
    They hit the print button too many times and it keeps printing over and over again.
    Is there a way to get the printer to stop printing these duplicates.  I tried turning off/on but they just keep printing.
    We're wasting paper/ink and I need help with a solution.
    Please let me know.  Thanks.
    Angelo

    There should be a button with a red 'X' on it on the front of the printer.  This is the print cancel button.

  • Has anyone had issues with McAfee antivirus blocking tethering?

    Hello all - trying to help my mother out with her laptop.
    She has an Iphone 5S, and we tested - when she activates mobile hotspot, other devices can use it - I tried with my tablet & phone and had no issue - but her laptop is not able to connect to it.
    She is running McAfee antivirus on the computer with Windows 7 Ultimate.  In her wireless settings, the laptop can see the hotspot, but when she connects to it and enters the password, she gets a connection failure message and it drops.  I'm thinking she has a case of over-zealous anti-virus software here - thoughts, hints, solutions?

    I don't believe the anti-virus would affect the ability to connect to a wi-fi connection. You might, however, want to check the firewall, and or delete any reference to the network in the computer. Windows will allow you to connect to guest networks as long as they are identified as such. Once you begin the connection process, it asks you to identify the network type, home, public, etc. That will put some protections into place, and that has nothing to do with McAfee. I've never had my McAfee interfere with the connection to any wi-fi network, and I've been around a lot of different ones.

  • Help with the s898t+ hard reset is in chinesse

    Please... i want to install a rom ... because i upgrade the system software to vibe ui 2.0 and tehre is no gapps (google aplications) then the hard reset menu is in chinesse , please help : smileyfrustrated:

    Hi Fersoft12
    The Lenovo S898t+ is meant to be sold and used only in China(China only model) meaning it officially runs on a Chinese firmware...To cover a wider international market some sellers modify the original official firmware adding Google services and multilingual support.
    You updated to a ''full'' Chinese firmware(Chinese firmwares don't have Gapps/GMS).http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/K-S-and-Vibe-Series/Caution-Why-Chinese-language-after-OTA-update/td-p/1...
    A factory/hard reset won't help you.Factory reset dosen't mean reverting to the previous firmware build....It only resets the phone to let's say the ''default settings''.
    For GAPPS install THIS on your phone(First download the .apk to your PC and then transfer it to the phone's internal memory) ->allow unknown sources in settings/security and follow the in-app instructions.
    Hope this helps

  • Need help with installing Ubuntu on Lenovo Ideapad Z500.

    I just bought a new Lenovo Ideapad Z500 yesterday. It came with Windows 8 pre-installed. Now, I also want to install Ubuntu over it. The disk is partitioned as follows:
    Disk C: - 880 GB (approx)
    Disk D: - 30 GB (approx) (I don't remember exact partition, as my laptop is currently at my home).
    Then I thought, I would better re-partition the C drive into 1 or 2 small drives. So, I shrinked the C drive by going into "Disk Management", and then created 3 more partitions - 240 GB * 2, 300 GB * 1, and left the C drive with 100 GB space. I didn't modified the D drive.
    Till then I didn't went through any infomation over internet. But, now when I went through this forum, I found out that my OKR won't work now, that I still have to confirm when I go home. So, now I'm worried. I scanned through so many post here, and no where found a way to install Ubuntu on Ideapad Z500.
    I also read that it will be possible to run OKR, if I can re-store the partition to it's original. I think this can be done, since I just have to remove the volume I created, and allocate the memory back to C drive. And it will be back to original state, as I didn't modify D drive (correct me if am wrong, or if it can't happen).
    So, the major question that I want to ask is, is there no way to partition my disk, and install Ubuntu in one of them. 

    hi rohitjain-rj,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    On a Z400 Touch running on Windows 8 preload, shrinking the the C-Drive under Disk Management and creating multiple partitions on the unallocated space and then reverting the partition back to original made the One Key Recovery work as normal - haven't tested this yet on the Z500 as there's no available unit but chances are, it may also work.
    In installing Ubuntu, have you tried to install Ubuntu via Wubi ?
    If Ubuntu doesn't start, boot into the BIOS (press the OKR button > select BIOS Setup Utility) and set the following:
    Boot Tab
    Boot Mode - Legacy Support
    Boot Priority - Legacy First
    Exit Tab
    OS Optimized Defaults - Other OS
    Regards.

    Hi Wouz,
    I am sorry that the windows 7 drivers are not fully released yet but we have some beta version of drivers. Please check if you can find what you need here. However, it does not cover all of Lenovo products as yet. Lenovo has a large amount of product models to support. Please bear with us and we shall release the drivers soon after the Windows 7 launch in 22nd Oct 2009.
    Thank you very much for your patience.

  • I can't connect to iTunes. I think it might be and issue with McAfee Security Center. Has anyone had this problem? If so, how did you fix it?

    I can't connect to iTunes. I think it might be an issue with McAfee Security Center - not sure. I am getting an error code of -42408. (Don't know what that means...) Has anyone had this problem? If so, how did you fix it?

    Having the same issue after downloading the lastest version of itunes. Apple is going to lose me as a customer, if this keeps up with their software updates. They never seem to work.
    Really, they should want me to be able to access their store. That's money out of their pocket. 
    Honestly, I don't know why Apple doesn't have a techie monitering their support threads trying to help fix issues.
    I don't have McAffee, so that wouldn't be my issue. I guess, I'll keep checking back to see if anyone has figured anything out.
    I can't seem to sync my ipad, now either. Ebay is sounding really good.
