    How do I correct this to download iTunes so it will run?

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • What are the settings in i phone 4s for connecting internet in mobile data ?

    what are the settings in i phone 4s for connecting internet in mobile data ?

    Did you ever get a reply to this.  I have the same problem.  I have the same problem when even when I reply to an email... no photo shows up in my new reply message.  The only way I have figured out is to use the "forward" option.
    But this still does not solve the problem when people email me back... I have no idea what photo they are speaking of.  Instead of a photo... there is a <photo name of some sort>.
    Let me know if you ever hear on this one.
    Many thanks.

  • What is the best file converter for Panasonic HC-X900M camcorder        for use on Final Cut Pro X?

    What is the best file converter for Panasonic HC-X900M Camcorder Mts  files for use with Final Cut Pro?

    This camcorder records in several ways, including AVCHD2, mpeg4 iframe, and 3d, at least that seems to be the case from a quick reading of its specs.
    If you get the latest update for fcpx, it will handle video shot in 60P. That is 10.0.4
    Here is what Apple says it supports, and one version of the 900 seems to be supported.
    I think the Apple site is a little behind its own software update, as one advantage of the new update is that it handles 60P.
    Maybe I am missing something, but I wonder what would happen if you get the latest update for fcpx, and try your card again. I did find that fcpx now supports my sony dslr at 60P.
    Here is a thread with one person saying they can now use their 900.

  • What's the significance of "_unloaded" appended to plug-in name in crash data?

    Hi
    I'm investigating some BEX (Buffer Overflow Exception) crashes.
    I can see from event log crash details that a plug-in for adobe appears to be the faulting module (P4)
    This is happening within Acrobat.exe and iexplore.exe
    e.g.
    Event Name: BEX
    Problem Signature :
    P1: Acrobat.exe
    P2: 10.0.1.434
    P4: <name>AcrobatPlugin.api_unloaded
    also
    Event Name: BEX
    Problem Signature :
    P1: iexplore.exe
    P2: 8.0.7601.17514
    P4: <name>AcrobatPlugin.api_unloaded
    When I look in the file system I can see the plug-in listed below:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\plug_ins\<name>AcrobatPlugin.api
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 10.0\Acrobat\plug_ins\<name>AcrobatPlugin.api
    Question:
    - What is the reason for _unloaded being added to the name of the plug-in - what does this mean?
    - What can I do to troubleshoot further?
    (I dont want to uncheck : Uncheck “Enable memory protection to help mitigate online attacks*” in IE)
    Thanks

    Thanks for that, BobHarris. This script has to be run at startup, by the system, so no CLi here.
    There is always a command line.
    doesn't the 'StartService ()' take the place of the .... start invocation? Maybe something is missing in the second-last line 'RestartService () { StartService; }'?
    How are you running this script at startup? Did you create a proper StartupItem? This is pretty simple to convert into a proper launchd plist. So simple, in fact, that it was done over a year ago: https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3373

  • T540p - Purchase Choice - Win 7 vs Win 7 preinstalled through downgrade rights in Win 8.1 Pro 64

    Can someone explain what are the differences, advantages, and disadvantages of choosing between the following 2 Win 7 Pro - Options when choosing the custom configuration on the Leneov website for pourchasing the T540p ?

    Go to Solution.

    Hi,
    Here's my understanding:
    Windows 7 Professional 64: old school - Win 7 installed and CoA sticker with key in the battery compartment..
    Windows 7 Professional 64 preinstalled through downgrade rights in Windows 8.1 Pro 64:  No Win7 CoA sticker.  Win 8.1 key in BIOS. Win 7 installed.  Usually Win 8 media included in the box.  (I've seen reports that it sometimes wasn't included - verify that before purchasing).
    The advantage of Win 7 old-school is that the CoA key can be used when doing a clean Win 7 install from Microsoft media.  Advantage of the downgrade setup is that you also have Win 8.1 if you later decide to change OS.  Disadvantage is that doing a clean Win 7 install requires some strange gyrations:  Understanding downgrade rights
    If you do go with the downgrade option, please make Win 7 recovery media when you receive your laptop.  Otherwise if you switch to 8.1 at some point you won't have a way to go back to 7 easily.

  • What are the minimum hardware requirements to install both MAC OS X Snow Leopard and Windows on a Mac

    Hi,
    I want to install both MAC OS X Snow Leopard and WINDOWS on a same PC. Is it possible..then mention the minimum Hardware support to install both Operating Systems on a PC. I am waiting for relevant reply from Apple Support Team.
                                            Thank You.

    I am waiting for relevant reply from Apple Support Team.
    Then you'll be waiting a long time. This is a user to user support site hosted by Apple. The Apple Support Team doesn't respond to posts here.
    For Snow Leopard, you need an Apple computer with an Intel processor of any flavor. Here are the specs from the Apple Store:
    System Requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    You'd have to contact Microsoft to find out what specs its OS requires, but I imagine the above would cover it.
    Also note that Snow Leopard is only licensed to run on Apple branded equipment.

  • What is the easiest way to transfer info from my Time Machine backups to a Windows pc?

    So far it seems like I'll have to reformat my external HDD used for backups, format it as NTFS, then transfer the files from the Mac onto that. Is there a simpler way to do this? A program I can install on the Windows computer than can let me read the files?

    Do you think by Bluetooth I can get the photos out of my
    not-I-Phone?  I'm afraid of somehow infecting the Mac.
    I don't think there's much chance of infecting your Mac, it should work if the phone supports the needed file transfer capabilities.
    I'd give you more points but there aren't any to give.
    Thanks for the consideration, 90% of the people give no points at all, & while that's not the reason I'm here, I do appreciate the recognition when awarded for good reason, thanks again.

  • What is the best way to throw text in a 5 minute film in final cut pro

    Does anyone know what the fastest way is to put 3d text (like the templates in motion) on a video in final cut pro?

    Use live type, you can do some real nice effects with text. Live type has backgrounds you can use, plus you can add your own which is what I do. Then you can use a live type font or standard type with fades, motion paths, glows and all sorts of neat stuff.

  • What is the most efficient way to use Remove Grain from After Effects on large Premiere Pro project?

    I've tried to use Dynamic Linking both ways but it doesn't the effects don't appear no matter how dramatic I make them. Why couldn't there just be Remove Grain in Premiere Pro so I wouldn't have to go through the headache of figuring this out. I've tried importing the Premiere Pro project into After effects where everything comes up and, since there's so many files, it doesn't seam feasibly or convenient at all. Trying Dynamic Link vice versa didn't lend results either. What can I do??? Projects range from about a half hour to an hour and a half. Thank you.

    The situations are well lit; it might be lack of knowledge on the camera settings itself.
    Sort that and your workflow issue dissapears instantly.
    There's nothing more efficient?
    Yep...read above... but ...any Plugin. eg Neat Video... will take long processing time.
    Fixing grain..actually "noise"...is always an image  degrading process as well.  It blurs!
