Hi
Have you created any Recovery media for your machine ??
IF so simply change the boot order in your BIOS and reload the factory image which will recover to Windows 8

When i try to open the itunes store in itunes,windows closes it after not finding a solution for the problem.I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Itunes software. I am running Win 7-with IE10-any help?

When I selected the Itunes store on my win PC today-the program was closed by windows with windows saying there was a problem. I tried a couple of times and then uninstalled the itunes software and reinstalled it with the same results. The program has always worked before but I have not used it recently since the Ipad now receives it's software updates right off the router. I am running Win 7 with IE10. Anyone with the same problem?

My post has been viewed 24 times, and yet have had no answers. I have always like adobe products, however if this is the type of support they offer, I will never purchase another product of theirs. The issue I am having is the same issue many others have had, and yet no answer. Poor customer service!

Z - Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit - new solutions for hotsync?

I am heartsick that my new operating system - Windows home premium 64 bit and my Palm Z22 won't sync.
I'm a little confused by all the computer speak any many of the posts were in 2009. (i.e. is Vista 64 bit, the same as Windows 7 64 it...as it relates to the problem?
What is an IRDA? (as in - using an IRDA to USB adapter to Hotsync a Z22 with a laptop running Vista 64.)
Is there a new solution out there?
Thanks,
mcgeesmail

An Ir adapter is a USB "dongle" - that is, it's a short USB cord with an IR "eye" on the end of it. You aim your Z22's port at this eye to make the connection (usually about 6" to 12" apart).

Temporary solution for deleting text messages for the Droid X

For everyone trying to delete the message history:
I know this is a pain in the rear-end, but I found a way that works as a temporary fix.
~Write down the number of the contact you're trying to delete from the history (ex girl/boyfriend, secret lover, whom ever)
~Delete the contact
~Re-enter the contacts info
You'll notice the history for that contact is gone and even though this is a rather long route to take to delete the history it works.
Now lets just hope there's an update soon.

Runnman,
I am not sure you if you know this or not but the Droid X stores text messages as well as phone call histories in two locations. One location for your text messages is at the location where you would normally send or receive messages, you can reply to them and if you'd like you can delete the conversation as well as the trend, however, there is a catch. Even though you have deleted the trend or conversation, if you go to your contacts and swip your finger to the left or right (I can't recall which way but you'll know when you see your message history) you'll see all you text messages. It's this location where the messages and call history can not be deleted and the only way I have found and so far the only technique that actually works, is to delete the entire contact, once the contact is deleted you will no longer have the history listed. Then you can readd the contact and repeat the process until an update is provided. I hope this doesn't confuse you too much.
Cheers

Please suggest solution for deletion of all rows in table at a time

Suggest me pl/sql code for a push button in form to delete entire rows in a table.
BEGIN
LOOP
DELETE
FROM mytable(say table name)
WHERE ROWNUM < 20000;
EXIT WHEN SQL%ROWCOUNT = 0;
COMMIT;
END LOOP;
END;
I wrote this code but not deleted .
Execute immediate truncate table <tablename>; this code too not working.
What my need is I dont want to put entire block fields in the form, just I want to put a push button and when I pressed it must delete all rows in a particular table.
That I want to delete all rows form builder runtime not by entering sql.8.0 and then there delete the rows.
thanks in advance
prasanth a.s.

to delete all records in a table, if you want to get good performance, then use:
FORMS_DDL('TRUNCATE TABLE your_table_name');
It is better than use DELETE FROM TABLE_NAME. But if you have condition in where clause, then you have to use DELETE FROM ...

Need Solution for iWeb/QuickTime viewing problem in IE 6 for Windows

When viewing an iWeb page in IE 6 for Windows with a background picture and a QuickTime movie embeded, the QT movie frame will "smear" when the page is scrolled. More specifically, The QT movie frame will not lock into its proper position as long as the page has a background picture selected in iWeb when viewing w/ IE 6 for Windows. Does anyone know of a solution for this? Does this problem still exist w/ later versions of IE for Windows?
By the way, if you don't already know this, changing the Page Background setting back to the default of 'Color Fill' in iWeb and republishing will not correct the problem once a background picture is selected for a page. You have to set the Page Background setting to 'None' and republish. The movie frame will then be locked into place when scrolling the page in IE 6 for Windows.

Someone else posted that you may have to remove the image altogether, publish, then place the replacement image. The images for the background of my newest pages use this as a tiled background successfully.
http://web.mac.com/makentosh/iWeb/tipsfromtheiceberg/Images/background.jpg
I'm not sure how well tiling would work on your page though since it would begin to repeat vertically when you don't want it to (for me, tiling is exactly what I needed).

I cannot access Content Library in iMovie - Content Library doesn't show on the iMovie screen and is greyed out when accessed through "windows" tab at the top. Also unable to update the projects/events (a suggested solution for a similar question). I haven't had this issue before, I have always used the content library on the screen but haven't used this for about a month. How can I make the Content Library available?

Thanks so much! I am backing up the entire computer now with an external hard drive - this should be fine right? And surely if I am backing up the whole computer these projects/videos will be backed up too? I wasn't sure how to do this any other way and I am clearly not great with tech issues. Once this is done and I am sure my projects/videos are safe I will do the delete and reinstall bit. Thanks for taking the time to help

HP 7210 all in one printer installation error on windows 8.1 update

We recently got updated by Microsoft from windows 8 to 8.1. After that time, the scanning function did not work as it did before and the HP menu utility was different. I went through the HP Info service and it said the printer software was not fully functional. I then was told to download the latest hp install software for the 7210, which I did for windows 8/8.1. The install stops with a fatal MCI error code 1935. I then went to the troubleshooting guide for error codes (the example box shows almost an identical error message to mine) but it only shows windows XP, Vista, and 7.0. There is no troubleshooting guide for windows 8 or 8.1 with this code. I then followed the "HP Solutions for Install Errors (Windows 8.0 and 8.1) and performed all the tasks. I updated windows to current and same error. I then shut off all startup services and got the same error. I am now out of idea's or help.
The printer has been great and we have had no problem with it since we've owned it. At this time we are without a printer completely because the install process removed the previous installed software.
Forgot to mention this is using USB connection, but the install never gets far enough to ask me to connect it, so it really doesn't matter.
Any advice would be extremely welcome.
Thank you
Joe

After updating with iTunes 12.1 for Windows 8.1, when I restarted my computer, my headphones no longer work. According to my computer they do. Is this an iTunes issue?

After updating with iTunes 12.1 for Windows 8.1, when I restarted my computer, my headphones no longer work. According to my computer they do. Is this an iTunes issue? I did the audio troubleshooting and it says everything is fine. I have a Toshiba Satellite L75D-A7280.

Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

Windows 8.1 update - S440 ThinkPad black screen with flickering cursor.

Hello,
Sorry if this is answered elsewhere.
I have an S440. I've had it for one week. Two days ago I downloaded the Windows 8.1 update from the store. Since then, when I start up the computer, it doesn't even taken me to the 'sign in' screen. There's just a black screen. When I move the cursor, it briefly appears, flickers, then disappears again.
I understand this is an issue with the graphics drivers. So I ran Windows in safemode and disabled Intel R HD Graphics family and AMD Radeon HD 8600 series graphics drivers.
This, unfortunately, hasn't fixed the problem. It still boots to a black screen with an occasionally flickering cursor. I'm currently running in safemode.
Any advice?
Thanks,
Alex

Hi
I also have an S440 and have tried 3 times to update laptop without success including updating all drivers and updates inc those from Lenovo.
Is there a fix for this? Is this an AMD issue?
My laptop is also very new and cannot believe it is incompatible with windows 8.1.
Tried the compatibility checker with Windows 8.1and it didn't report any problems.http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-8/upgrade-assistant-download-online-faq
Is there anything that can be done to get this working?

Windows 8.1 update added a recovery partition now the recovery function won't work.

After the latest 8.1 update, an extra recovery partition as added to the C: drive. A few other things got messed up so i decided to reset to factory original. To my surprise the HP Recovery Tools no longer work. If I hit F11 I get a 0xC0000225 error where the device isn't avaialble. I can see the recovery partition with the WINRE partition but I think the computer doesn't know where the partition is. I'm on an DV6-7211 with Windows 8.1 update. Anyway to tell the F11 function where the WINRE drive is? Since HP didn't seem fit to give me recovery media in my box I have no way to revert back to factory original. SInce there is a liscense for Windows 8 included, I don't feel like spending the money to buy a new operting system. Recovery media is way too expesive.

You might try making a Recovery set with the software included on your machine-though it may not work now either. Creating Recovery Media >> Windows 8
