Why do they dribble updates in one at a time instead of combining them into a new soft pack.

Every time I turn my computer off and then turn it back on there's a new update to download. Why aren't these updates combined into a single update instead of dribbling in one at a time. They appear to be older than my computer. I don't understand why these updates weren't included in the newer software or as a new soft pack.  When I upgraded to 8.1 I would've thought any security issues would've been included.
Is there a way to get all the updates at one time rather than getting them dribbled in one at a time?

Unfortunately HP has nothing to do with this beyond their own drivers. You should contact MS customer service with your concerns.

  • I have two podcast folders. I can't delete and redownload the old ones because they are not available any more. How can I get them into the new folder?

    The problem of having 2 'Podcast' folders / menu items after adding a new podcast through clicking on a link in the browser has been addressed on the forums by instructing users to resubscribe to existing podcasts, which then appear in the new folder, and delete the old folder.  This will not work for me as most of the podcasts I listen to are BBC, which vanish from the web 7 days after they were first broadcast (about which much swearing, but that's unalterable).  Consequently I can't adopt this solution.
    I have resubscribed to the podcasts using the link in a browser method, so that they all appear and (in theory) will download new episodes again. However, this leaves the old episodes missing. What must I do to get the episodes downloaded from the old podcasts recognised as belonging to the new subscriptions?

    I found a very fast and easy solution: I selected all the podcasts in the first window, copied them using the command in the Menu>Edit (Command+C did not seem to work). I then pasted them into the new empty folder. All the podcasts already downloaded appeared. The only problem is that some podcasts did not remember which had been viewed or not, while did keep the information. I just had to re-subscribe to the ones I still wanted by clicking on button.
    For some reason, the previous Podcasts folder was only recogized as a list by iTunes, this showed up when I deleted the previous folder (contextual menu). I also had to re-select which ones I wanted synced with my iPad and iPhone.
    (I did make a backup of the Podcasts folder in the Finder, just in case, a bit like voodoo computing)

    I have loaded my Firefox bookmarks into Internet Explorer Favorited. I also uninstalled Safari.
    I go to iTunes on my phone and see no wat to connect my iPhone to my laptop. I see Music, Shows, etc., the kind of stuff I would expect, but no clue as to how to proceed.
    Would you please be so kind to fill me in on how to "That syncing is done via iTunes. Connect the device to iTunes, select it, then go to the Summary page and select to sync bookmarks."?
    I am not sure what you mean by "Summary Page"
    Thank you

  • Why do the mac updates take a ridiculously long time

    why do the mac updates take a ridiculously long time? 10 hours? this is ridiculous - my ISP is 40mbps

    Which updates were you trying to get? If you are going to a very busy web site or server, the connections could be extremely slow. But to wait so long invites troubles.
    If the machine is terribly slow, that should be an indication some maintenance or repair may be needed first. Some keyboard shortcuts can be used to check and attempt repair, and the problem likely is in the Mac.
    Everything from the amount of RAM installed, to the total capacity of the HDD (or SSD) vs free or unused space on the drive, is important to the function of the OS X. Or there may be an issue, if the OS X checks out OK, in the internet connection. If you use wireless mostly, check the connections by wire instead.
    Try to not get into a position where you end up using 'force quit' if the computer appears to freeze up. In the process of an update or upgrade, that's almost never a positive outcome.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • HT3209 where are my TV series which I purchase on Apple TV stored? Why do they take so long to open when we want to watch them?

    where are my TV series which I purchase on Apple TV stored? Why do they take so long to open when we want to watch them?

    That would be due to your network.
    Some common things to check
    Current connection, use speedtest.net
    Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of your network, it will help see if there's interference.
    On Apple TV go to settings - general - network. Make sure DNS is set to automatic.

  • I have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

    i have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

    i had one for a long time, then when i got the ipad i didn't realize they would all still work under one so i set up the second one on that
    then when i got the new iphone i put in the info for the first and main one from my mac pro and it would not work at all, and i knew it was right, then it asked me to create a new one or i couldnt finish the setup
    hence why i have 3 now
    hard to believe you cannot combine into one
    oh well, i will just make them all accessible for all 3
    thanks

  • I have several pics of my new grandson throughout the year.  How do I combine them into one event

    I have several pics of my new grandson throughout the year.  How do I combine them into one event

    You can drag and drop photos from one Event to another. Or you can flag them and use the Events: Add Flagged photos to Select Event.
    However, why not use an Album for the job?

  • I have two different itunes music files on my computer.  How do I combine them into one file?

    I have two different itunes music files on my computer.  How do I combine them into one file?

    I don't think so. The only other ID I have is a developer id, and I didn't get that until several months after I got the phone. In addition purchases I made from the App Store onthe phone would sync up with It unes on the Mac meaning it would be the same id.
    However I looked at the AppStore on my phone while it was connected to the Mac with iTunes open, and now the balance has changed to the same as the others.

  • I seem to have at least two, and maybe four, iCloud accounts, across my iPhone, my iPad and my MacBook Pro. Can I combine them into one iCloud account?

    I seem to have at least two, and maybe four, iCloud accounts, across my iPhone, my iPad and my MacBook Pro. Can I combine them into one iCloud account? I have been able to log into what appears to be three of the four iCloud accounts I have. Two of them seem to be remarkably similar, and one appears to be only for my MacBook.I think I know which one my iPhone is backing up to, as I successfully restored from a back-up last week. The fourth iCloud account I can't access via password or security questions. Any advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Cheers,

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

  • Songs in my Itunes show up as separate folders.  How do I combine them into one album?

    Songs in my Itunes show up as separate folders.  How do I combine them into one album?

    Is this one of those CDs where the main artist asks their friend to sing a song with them?
    Such as, Slash's new album. Track 1 is "Slash Feat. Ian Astbury", track 2 is "Slash Feat. Ozzy Osbourne" and so on.
    To fix this, select all the tracks on that album, right-click > Get Info, and say YES to changing multiple items.
    Put "Slash" in the *Album Artist* field (for this example, of course).
    Make sure it is the *Album Artist* field, not the plain Artist field.
