Win 8 Pro on Windpad 110W installation troubleshooting, PLEASE HELP

Please bare w/ me for a moment to give you a little history. I've got a 110W w/ Win 8 RP on it. I bought the Windpad used. The previous owner put replacaed the original hard drive w/ a 120GB, and I've been quite pleased w/ its performance. Initially it came w/ the Win 8 CP, and I downloaded the upgraded RP a couple months ago when all my Metro Apss quit working on CP. Now I'd finally like to upgrade to Win 8 Pro and be finished. I'm also attempting to change from the 32-bit OS to the 64-bit. Here is where I encounter trouble. If I try to install it from w/in the current OS it detects I'm running 32-bit and halts the installation w/ an error message. Therefore I've put the 3.3GB Win 8 Pro 64-bit.iso file on a USB thumb drive and am attempting to boot it from outside the OS, and bypass its detection. (as a side note: the reason I want the 64-bit is because I'd like to upgrade the RAM to 8GB). Anyhow, the previous owner also installed a dual boot for the device called Android-x86 which i don't care to have anymore as it really hasn't been a practical Android experience. Unlike my Android experiences w/ other tablets and phones; I love Android. Furthermore this dual boot has partitioned the hard drive too and a few GBs are dedicated to the Android portion. I'd like to do away with this Android-x86 dual boot, but am not sure how. Finally, I hooked up a keyboard and the USB drive w/ Win 8 Pro to the USB port via a USB hub, and selected F11 when the tablet loaded up. I was able to select between loading the USB drive or the SSD. I chose the USB hoping it would start a fresh install of WIN 8 Pro 64-bit. It didn't it went to the next screen that always appears after the MSI boot-loader image; the Android-x86 screen where it defaults to boot windows if I don't select Android after 5 seconds. I just want to be done w/ the Android-x86, and get a clean install of Win 8 Pro only on my machine. Any tips, pointers, or guidance in the right direction is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rick

I'm going to attempt to recover the system w/ the Win 7 DVD recovery discs that come w/ the MSI machine, since that version of Win 7 is 64-bit. I don't have an external DVD drive so I'm putting the files on my USB stick, and hoping that I can just install them on the Windpad from it. If Win 7 successfully installs, because it's already 64-bit, I can just upgrade over the internet w/o getting the Microsoft error message that I can't install a 64-bit OS on a 32-bit system. I hope this works!

Acrobat Pro XI installation/activation PLEASE HELP THANK YOU

I downloaded and installed Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, completed the installation, but when trying to open the programme, it gives me an error saying that it cannot connect with the internet or verify my Adobe ID or that my clock might be set wrong. My clock is fine, so is my internet connection and I blocked my anti-virus just to make sure. Nothing works! It allows me to use the test version for now, but how can I help this? Thanks in advance!

Hi michalr23191990,
Could you please let me know what version of OS are you working on.
Please note that after installing Acrobat XI, you need to sign in to Adobe.com using your Adobe ID credentials to activate the software.
If possible, please share the screenshot of the error message so that I can analyze the exact issue.
Hope to hear from you.

Try these steps to see if it will resolve the issue. Disabling the Startup programs and temporarily turn off the Antivirus Software should prevent any interference during the installation.

Snow Leopard 10.6.3 freezing during installation? Please help!

I have a 13" Macbook with Mac OS X 10.4.11 and am trying to install Snow Leopard 10.6.3 (which I bought from the Apple store). I am having trouble with the installation, as it freezes every time I get to a certain point in the "Installing" screen. It was freezing around the 40 min. mark, and so I tried the various options that the installation CD gave me. Such as going into disk utility and doing the "first aid" stuff where everything seemed to check out fine. None of that helped, and it kept freezing at the same point, sometimes going all the way to a screen that says, "Install Failed, the installer could not copy the necessary support files." I double checked all of the system requirements, and I originially didn't have enough memory, but freed up space for the installation.
I then tried the last option on the installer troubleshooting by backing up my files on an external hard drive and then erasing the memory through disk utility. Now I can't get back onto my original computer drive when selecting a startup disk, as it only lets me see the installation CD to select. Erasing didn't help, except that now it freezes at 29 minutes instead of 40. I can't even eject my CD, I'm assuming since there is nothing else for my computer to run on. I'm not a genius with computers, but I was simply following the instructions that came with my software. Now I can't even get back to those instructions, since they were only available on my previous hard drive, and not in the actual disk packaging (which seems kind of silly). I'm planning on calling Apple for support, hoping that I can get free support since I only bought this software a few days ago. However, any help in the meantime would be appreciated! Thanks!

ITunes 8 Installation Error PLEASE HELP!!

Ok, I know that this problem has been posted before and the last post was April of 2008.
I recently bought an iPod Touch (16gb 2nd gen)and I have downloaded the software for iTunes 8 on and I am attempting to install it. When I get into the installation process, I receive an error message that says:
An error occurred during the installation of assembly ‘Microsoft.VC80.CRT, publicKeyToken=”ifc8b3b9a1e18e3b” (etc). Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x8007054F. The installation process is then "rolled back".
Now, even though iTunes will still install onto my computer and appear to function, it will not sync with my iPod Touch. When I plug in my iPod to sync with iTunes, I get this message:
"This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to removed iTunes, then install iTunes again."
I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it and the SAME thing happens! I have NO IDEA WHAT TO DO, and I need any help I can get. I have followed all of the information found on different forums online and it either didn't work, or I didn't understand the computer lingo. If anyone knows a solution OR if anyone has had the same issue and found a solution, PLEASE HELP! I didn't get this iPod to not be able to use it!

MacBook Pro WON'T TURN ON. Please help!

I'm an editor and rely on my computer daily. Please help me.
I purchased my 17" MacBook Pro back in April of 2008. It was dropped once the first year I had it, with no noticeable damage (thank God). I've had no major issues with it, until today.
I was editing on it earlier this afternoon, and when I was finished, I put it away in my incase backpack like I always do. Put it in my trunk, went on some errands, and just returned home.
I took it out to power it up. I hear the internal start up sound of the hard drive waking up and trying to spin (no apple sound) and then it just dies. Black screen the whole time. No logo. Nothing. The white light on the button to open the screen turns on and flashes, and then goes off too.
I'm really freaked out that it's dead. If I can't start it up at all, is there any way to retrieve my files from it? I have some things backed up, but there's a lot of stuff I still need off of it. My main priority in all of this is just making sure I can save my files.
If this clues anyone in as to what's wrong, a couple of days ago the screen started twitching black for about 2 minutes intermittently. I'd never seen it do that before, and it stopped shortly afterwards. Is this just my computer being three years old and pooping out on me randomly?
Please help. I'm freaking out. I need all of my software.
Thanks!

I just logged in and the software did not return me to this page. How Primitive. It's Sunday for me, the launch day for my new international business. My Skype meeting was to be held on my Macbook Pro. The Apple staff have all decided that this day isn't very important for them, so they're at the beach. My Macbook did not turn on all day, even with the SXX reset or whatever you call it. Ctrl Alt Shift Power. I heard a little click each time I did this, to no avail. In desperation, I turned the 'laptop' (that's what the REAL world calls them) over and saw weird screws for a rare type of screwdriver. I pressed down slightly on the metal casing and heard a few of the clicks like with the SMC reset. I wondered if that would make a difference.
I turned my computer over, opened it up, pressed the power button and it worked immediately. THE INTERIOR OF THE 2011 MACBOOK PRO MAY BE SHODDILY ASSEMBLED. My battery life is 4.5 hrs max at 50% brightness in safe mode with no 'programs' (not f***ing 'Apps') running. When I browse the internet at 50% brightness in normal mode, the battery lasts 90 mins, although I have never pressed the metal casing on the back of this laptop gently to reassemble the inner workings of this machine before, so it could last for 100 hours. Nope, I'm down to 87% after ten minutes. It's back to normal.
Summary: To fix your Mac, hit it with a hammer. Hopefully it'll break so you can go back to Windows and actually see how many Firefox windows you have open and right click on things to bring up the menu instead of aiming your mouse for every tiny thing onto pinheads like a frekkin surgeon.

The installer has a mind of its own. You will almost
certainly need to
run the cs3clean script to remove all traces of the
Dreamweaver trial
version. Unfortunately, this will also remove the rest of the
suite, but
once your machine has been cleaned, the suite should install
correctly.

CS3 Installation Problem, please help!

Hi there ive been trying to install Photoshop CS3 and having great difficulty, it will only install the shared components and nothing else, Ive gone through all the tutorials on the Adobe help pages and still not had any luck, I've tried looking through the log and the only thing I could come across is the following:
[ 5028] Sat Apr 11 00:41:19 2009 ERROR
Default installation language not valid, falling back to first supported language.
[ 5028] Sat Apr 11 00:41:19 2009 DEBUG
couldn't find any info on the error code or anything, ive uploaded my installation log here:
http://www.2shared.com/file/5313464/86af2f33/Adobe_Photoshop_CS3_10.html
please help! I am using windows Vista but not sure if its 32 or 64

just tried that and still does not want to work, really just does not want to install for some reason!
I did try this and it wouldnt let me allow inhertible permissions to the admin on Solution 11 of this: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401401 this part here:
Select both "Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate to this object" and "Reset permissions on all child objects and enable propagation of inheritable permissions," on the Permissions tab.
Click OK in the "Advanced Security Settings" dialog box. Windows will now reset the permissions for each child object to correspond with its parent.
If you can't change permissions or rename that key, then contact Microsoft or your hardware vendor for assistance.
not sure if that has something to do with it?
appart from that i'm completly out of ideas, very frustrating as i have been trying for days to get this to install! any more suggestions are welcome

Final Cut Pro 4.5 & Dropped Frames..Please Help

I am a wedding videographer and have been using Final Cut Pro with no problems for several video projects. My most current project however problems arise. I am using Mac OS X 10.4.9 with 512 MB of Ram on a G5 1.8 Single. When I try importing video from my last wedding when I capture it I always am getting a message saying dropped frames were present. I have tried 2 different camcorders, 2 different firewire cables, defragmenting my hard drive and still nothing but dropped frames messages.

Shane's Stock Answer #45 - How to get FCP 4.5 working again under Mac OS 10.4.9
Apple's solution: Archive and install the OS again, this time updating only to 10.4.8.
Another COOL solution: Samba2007 posted that a friend solved the FCP 4.5 + OSX 10.4.9 capture issue adding the Capture Scratch folder to the Privacy of Spotlight in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4417320#4417320
OlSchoolCutter tried with SUCCESS (see post in that thread).
Then follow these stepe and try (it's free!):
1. From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
2. From the View menu, choose Spotlight.
3. Click the Privacy tab to reveal the areas that Spotlight will not index.
4. In the Finder, open your "Final Cut Pro Documents" folder.
5. Drag the Capture Scratch folder into Spotlight's list.

Problems with trial un-installation. Please help

Some time ago i tried adobe photoshop CS4, and used the trial till it expired. About a month afterward I wanted to delete the files from my computer. I was rather unfamiliar with how un-installers worked, and I did not know they existed. I simply went to my finder, typed photoshop, and deleted most of the files. As it turns out, i deleted the re installer, or how ever that works. I recently received photoshop CS4 extended as a gift and I attempted to install it. This was unsuccessful, the first screen that came up with the installer said I still had files from the trial on my computer, and that i should un-install them. I was told by someone who knew more about adobe products that I had to go to utilities to uninstall it . I tried this and it said critical files were missing, and I need to reinstall from the original media. In that last month or so I have found NO solution to this problem, and I am afraid to delete any other files. I could not find any help on the adobe site, and since i have not registered my product( since I have not installed it) i cannot get direct support from adobe. Please help all I want to do is use photoshop and I hate to be wasting the money of the people who bought it for me. Can anyone give me a solution to this mess?

Try downloading and running the CS4Clean Script:
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
Starting with CS3, you MUST use the Adobe Uninstaller that gets installed in Applications/ Utilities/ Adobe/.
Some users who just dragged the Photoshop folder to the trash or deleted files nilly-willy have been forced to back up their drive, wipe it clean, and install the OS and all applications from the original media. You may luck out and get away with just the CS4Clean Script. Good luck.
