Windows 8.1 and ipv6 device stack issues

Hello, so here is the thing:
ZTE Integrated access device (gateway) connected to the ONT. It has ipv6 support which ISP still doesn't use and there is no way of disabling it in router even though I've obtained ISP's admin account. So many ipv6 options and I cannot dare to change anything
except ipv6 dhcp on/off which doesn't have any effect.
2 machines - one desktop with gigabit realtek lan, second one laptop with centrino n 1030 wireless, all latest drivers, using fixed ip addresses
1. Homegroup - no way they can connect to each other (yes, I've tried all possible ideas and known fixes listed here) - I always get invalid password no matter on which machine I try to create homegroup.
2. Shares using accounts - here is the funny thing: they see each other but cannot access each others shared folder unless I disable ipv6 in both adapters properties. Even then it's a hit and miss solution. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
3. Regarding to above: Printer sharing also sometimes it works, sometimes it cannot access.Reboot fixes.
More humor here: connecting both machines to my leftover adsl router without any kind of ipv6 support - everything starts working fine.
So what to do before I start to burn stuff around? Mind you, I have tried at least 30 possible ideas including formatting both machines and completely resetting gateway.
I see that there is a regedit hack which forces windows 8.1 to use ipv4 communication instead of ipv6. Also, since gateway support remote syslog server and log levels I've been thinking to setup it on my machine and log everything.

Yes, there is a way of disabling IP v6 components by editing the registry, here are the detail steps for you to follow:

I hope this is the answer you want.

Use Time Capsule with Windows-based Computers and PowerLan Devices

Hi All -
I would like to inquire whether I can:
1) use a Windows-based conputer to access the internal hard disk of Time Capsule; and
2) connect the Time Capsule with prower lan devices (e.g. Aztech) to extend the wirless coverage.
Thank you.
Gary

Yes.. but.. Long term storage of info is not really wise where you have no backup. TC is not able to back itself up and you will have issues finding anything but manually doing it from windows.
What windows version?
Have you installed the airport utility? That makes life much easier, as it adds bonjour for windows and a disk access agent.
Simply installing the utility may be enough. If not open windows explorer and type the name or IP directly into the address bar.
Note.. you should use all names on the TC that are short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
\\TCname or \\TCIPaddress (where you obviously change to real name (no spaces of course) or IP)
If you still have issues.. check that you can ping the TC.. and make sure firewalls are not blocking it and your PC is located HOME, not WORK or PUBLIC.

Profilemanager for windows based computers and android devices

Is there anyway to set up windows based computers or android devices in profile manager? I assume not so is there another way to do this?

No ProfileManager is for Apple devices only. If you want to cover Windows or Android instead of or as well as Apple devices then you need to look at an alternative like MobileIron.

Network Load Balancing and IPv6 Ping Timeout

I've noticed interesting behavior with NLB on Windows 2012 R2 and IPv6. I have two systems that use NLB on a Hyper-V cluster, each system is on a different node in the cluster. When I do an IPv6 ping within the same subnet, I notice that the reply time is
normally 1-3ms, but every so often it goes to 100+ms. I also notice that both members of the NLB reply to a ping to the cluster IPv6 address. This is interesting.
When I do a ping to the cluster IPv6 address from a different subnet, I notice that the reply is intermittent. The NLB nodes will either both reply to the ping or both won't. At first I thought that there was an issue with my network, but when I do a span
on the ports that the cluster is attached to, I see that the IPv6 ping packets arrive, but the NLB nodes don't always send a reply.
What is also interesting is that the NLB web farm I have setup seem to be working fine and is not intermittent, so this issue only has to do with ping. Has anyone else seen this type of issue, or is this a bug?
Thanks!

Hi Nathan,
So are you running both IPV6 and IPV4? Do you have any clients that can't connect at all? Just on ping?
The reason I ask is we had a server that was receiving IPV6 fine, but on receiving IPV4 would switch to IPV6 to connect SSL back to the client. Of course the clients never received it and just got a timeout. Funny thing is cell phones had no issue
at all because they were straight IPV6. Only clients with both protocols got the timeout.
So the ack was send back via the wrong protocol and nothing but the timeout is what the client sees. This may be an LLMNR issue. It came out from 2008R2 but think it may still apply

USB 3 Instability Issues - Windows 8.1 - Windows 8, The USB 3 Stack Is Unstable On Multiple PCs And Many Devices

The USB 3 stack is unstable in Windows 8.1 and Windows 8. I was hoping the upgrade to Windows 8.1 would improve the stability but no.
On two different motherboard systems I have had the same experience with 64 bit Windows 8 Pro and Windows 8.1 Pro compatibility with various USB 3.0 devices and hubs including:
An AFT PRO-57U front panel card-reader/hub, various Anker, Syba multiport hubs, and these are just a few I have tried, there are many more.
Symptoms are the same.
For example: the AFT PRO-57U slots are enumerated correctly as drive letters in Windows 8.1.
Then the drives (the PRO-57U slots) disappear, then reappear, then disappear, and reappear and so on. This happens consistently and the cycle time to disappear/reappear varies from 10 seconds to 10 minutes.
The Windows Device Manager shows the devices appearing and disappearing as enumerated devices. I have tried many trial and error methods to solve this, uninstalling and reinstalling USB motherboard drivers, different cables to the AFT PRO-57U device different
USB 3 ports for the devices and many more...
One of the hubs I bought specifically because it has the latest chip and firmware: Anker® USB 3.0 9-Port Hub + 5V 2.1A Smart Charging Port with 12V 5A Power Adapter [VIA VL812-B2 Chipset and updated Firmware 9081] This hub FAILs to enumerate some external
HDDs and other devices.
To troubleshoot I have tried many things:
I have disabled Windows Power Options, USB Selective Suspend.
I have disabled power options for each and every USB device in Windows Device Manager
I have uninstalled the Asus AI Suite 3 software and the issues remain.
I have tried BIOS settings for Legacy USB devices on and off and the issues remain.
I have tried BIOS setting for xHCI Mode - Auto, Smart Auto, On, Disabled
I have updated to the latest Intel chipset drivers 9.4.0.1026
I have all the latest BIOS, drivers, firmware, devices, - anything that is involved with the USB 3 stack.
Etc. etc. etc...
I have contacted Asus, Gigabyte Intel, AFT, Anker Syba, etc. and they are all finger pointing.
I have tried so many trial and error methods to solve the problem and I have run out of ideas.
It is clearly an unstable USB 3 stack and I am not sure who is responsible although I suspect Intel chipset drivers.
USB 2 is fine BTW. All devices work correctly when plugged into USB 2 ports.
From what I can tell, the entire USB 3 environment is a problematic P.O.S.
If anyone has any ideas I am willing to try anything I have not already tried.
Thanks,
Michael Downs
P.S. Here is my system information. I have all the latest BIOS, updates, drivers and etc. for all devices.
ASUS Maximus VI Formula w/ BIOS 1002
Intel Core i7-4770K BX80646I74770K
G.Skill Trident X 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 2400 Model F3-2400C10D-16GTX
Samsung 840 Pro 256GB SSD Seagate Constellation CS ST3000NC002 3TB 7200 RPM 64MB
EVGA GeForce GTX 760 ACX 2GB 256-bit GDDR5
Corsair Carbide Series 330R Mid-tower Case
Corsair RM850 850W 80 Plus GOLD Certified
Cooler Master Seidon 240M - Liquid CPU Water Cooler
Pioneer 15X BD-R SATA Blu-ray Burner BDR-2208
AFT PRO-57U All-in-one USB 3.0 5.25" Media Card Reader
Then there is a similar system with the exact same USB 3 issues:
Gigabyte - GA-Z77X-UP4TH
Intel i7 3770K
etc.

Hey, I hope this helps you out a bit... I have had the same issue on my Asus K55A notebook with Win8.1 Pro x64 from the beginning! Thru my extensive research I found something interesting and the possible cause to all this! What I found was that by design
the xHCI Host Controller has virtual HS 2.0 Ports linked to the 3.0 Ports... Enabling compatibility with 2.0 devices ok... What happens is that the xHCI stack is unstable just like you say... The ONLY WAY I was able to fix the problem was by unlocking the
UEFI/BIOS to allow me full access to USB Configurations... I had to disable 2 of the HS ports under the xHCI Controller since I have only 2x 3.0 ports... This allowed 3.0 devices to be enumerated correctly under the xHCI stack and 2.0 devices now were enumerated
under the EHCI 2.0 stack... That's what worked in my case... I'm still digging around for more info about this issue because I find it so odd that no one discovered this when designing xHCI stacks and drivers at MS for Win8/8.1 x64... I hope I shed some light
on this issue... Good luck and keep us posted!
Hi, Sebastian. I have the same problem but i'm getting crazy trying to solve it. Can you help me to unlock the UEFI to access full USB config? and give me some suggestions on how to solve the problem?

Thanks in advance!

ActiveSync not working for Apple Devices - Windows and android devices not having issue

Recently we have had reports of users not being able to send or sync emails to / from Apple iOS devices. When we look at the ActiveSync logs, we see the affected people getting HTTP 503 errors. Yet if this person works on a Windows Mobile device or an android
Mobile device - they do not have the problem. Similarly, if the person uses the new "Outlook" app on an Apple iOS device, they don't have the problem. It only occurs with the native mail app on iOS devices.
We have Exchange 2013 CU5 - 4 x CAS Servers on Windows 2012, and 6 x Mailbox servers on Windows Server 2008 R2 (hardware doesn't support WS2012).
We have logged a call with MS Support and they are looking into it, but was just wondering whether anyone else has seen this issue.
PS - Before anyone suggests it - we have new servers on the way for the mailbox servers, and will install WS2012R2 and CU8 on it when they arrive. But because our executive is being affected now, we need to look at this now.

I did inital think it might be a widows phone issue but there are no other settings for me to use. I have also tested using a windows 8 surface and I get the same issue.
I have raised the event log level on the exchange server to expert and I have seen 2 messages when I try to connect.
I get Event ID 1100: Exhcnage ActiveSync device requests for your uses are being blocked. This problme frequently occurs when HTTP OPTIONS method is not allowed.
I know it is allowed as the test exchange connectivity worked and passed that test.
The other error Event ID 1309 ASP.NET warning. Part of the exception messge is DeviceTypeMissingOrInvalid
I have come across a comment that says for certificates to work you need to use windows intune or SCCM which we don't have. Do we know if this is true?

ITunes and iPhone 4 sync issues with Windows 7 64 bit

I am getting several errors with sync'ing iTunes to my iPhone on windows7 64bit. I reinstalled iTunes, I did a repair on iTunes, even tried a RESTORE on iPhone, but it gives me so many errors one after another after another.
1. Some of the items were NOT copied to iPhone "iPhone" because one ore more errors occured.
2. Attempting to copy to the disk "iPhone" failed. An internal device error occured.
3. The iPhone "iPhone" can NOT be synced. An unknown error occured (0xE8004006).
4. The iPhone "iPhone" can not be synced. The required file can not be found.
5. The iPhone "iPhone" can not be synced. A duplicate filename was specified.
6. The iPhone "iPhone" can not be synced. An internal device error occured.
These errors keep appearing one after the other.
I have fully uninstalled iTunes and ALL Apple programs from my PC, rebooted, disabled antivirus/firewall software, etc.
I have tried changing time zones.
I have created a new user account on same laptop and still have same issues with iTunes.
Restore fails with error "Unable to read file or file is corrupt".
Yet iTunes works fine on a 32bit operating system of Windows 7.
The problem is that I upgraded my laptop and the new laptop is Win7 64bit. I have ALL the newest drivers, and I checked to ensure it was not a BIOS or CHIPSET driver causing issues. All windows updates are up to date and current.
I have been trying for over a week with every piece of trouble shooting I can find to make this work.
Any help or further information would be VERY GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Thanks in Advance

I too am having the exact same issues on the same laptop! I spent an hour last night with "supervisor" in tech support who didn't solve my problem but did close the ticket (210757099 for any Apple people that might read this). Thanks a lot Ben!
I have seven ipod/iphone/ipad devices so I am very familiar with how to sync. In the last few weeks, version 10.2 of iTunes (I'm up to 10.2.1.1) has gotten less and less reliable in successfully sync'ing to the devices. It started out with my 3GS, but my iPhone 4 was fine. Then I got an iPad2 and now NOTHING will sync properly. Every time I plug one in (or press the sync button) it wants to do a restore from the backup made the last time it sync'd. It does that, reboots the device and sync's.
I've gotten a ton of errors, here's a sample.
iBooks couldn't be installed on my iPhone unknown error 0xE800000C
Textie couldn't be installed on my iPhone, unknown error 0xE8000013
"failed required file not found" - This is one of my favorite error messages. It demonstrates how Apple is becoming like Microsoft. It is 100% accurate and totally useless. It would be helpful if it told me the NAME of the file that was not found...
unknown error 0xE8004006
"duplicate file found" - Again, in true Microsoft form, it didn't tell me the NAME of the file that was duplicated.
I tried everything discussed in the following thread but it did not work.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2401822
Stopping the enhanced USB controller didn't work. Mine is the Intel(R) 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller (version 9.1.1.1020).
A few days ago I got hundreds of errors in a sync. When it completed, a dialogbox came up asking if I wanted to send this crash report to Apple, I said yes. So, crash reports are now automatically being sent. You can see evidence of this in the %appdata%\Apple Computer\Logs directory.
This section of the log looked interesting because it says it couldn't connect to USB mux port 32498

Hi all. I can’t tell you how to solve your iCloud 3.x issues. Heck, I don’t think they’re even solvable.
But if you had a previous version of iCloud that was working correctly then I can definitely tell you how to solve the “iCloud Photo Stream is not syncing correctly to my Windows 7 PC” problem. …without even a re-boot.
Log out of iCloud 3.0 and uninstall it.
Open My Computer and then open your C:\ drive. Go to Tools/Folder Options and click on the View tab. Select the “Show hidden…” radio button and click on OK.
Open the Users folder.
Open your user folder
Open ProgramData (previously hidden folder)
Open the Apple folder – not the Apple Computer folder.
Open the Installer Cache folder
In Details view sort on Name
Open the folder for the newest entry for iCloud Control Panel 2.x – probably 2.1.2.8 dated 4/25/2013
Right click on iCloud64.msi and select Install.
When finished, the synching between iCloud and your PC will be back to working perfectly as before the 3.0 fiasco. The pictures will be synched to the same Photostream folder as before the “upgrade”. Now all you need to do is wait until Apple/Microsoft get this thing fixed and working before you try the 3.x upgrade again.
I think the iCloud 3.0 software was written by the same folks who wrote healthcare.gov with the main difference being that healthcare.gov might eventually be made to work.
For those of you who hate to go backwards, think of it as attacking to the rear. Which would you rather have, the frustration of no synching or everything working on an older version?
Good luck…

HT1386 Itune 11 on Windows 7 x64 and iPad 2. The device do not appear in Itunes.

Itune 11 on Windows 7 x64 and iPad 2.
On 3 different PC and 3 different iPad 2 when I installed iTunes 11.1 Windows Autoplay recognise the iPad but iTunes do not.
The device does not appear in iTunes and thus neither synchronisation nor backup are possible.
Reverting to the previous version of iTunes solved the issue.
However with IOS 7 iTunes 11.1 is required and I am back with the same issue. Could you please help?
Thanks and best regards

If you try syncing with iTunes again, perhaps the phantom album will be erased since it does not exist on the computer.
Have you tried restarting or maybe resetting the iPad to see if the album will disappear?
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

I updated my email for itunes and now the sign in to icloud window opens up and i can not use my device

Multiple RDS Device CALs Issued through Windows 2003 RDS Hosts

Environment
Windows 2012 R2 RDS license server issuing device CALs
5 Citrix farms (PS4, PS4.5, XA5, XA6, and XA6.5)
Symptoms
- RDS device CALs issued through the PS4/Windows 2003 R2 and PS4.5/Windows 2003 R2 servers show the Citrix server name in the Window 2012 R2 RD license manager console instead of the workstation name (See below).
- The PS4/Windows 2003 R2 and PS4.5/Windows 2003 R2 servers are issuing a large number of device CALs to workstations. For example, we have two PS4/Windows 2003 R2 servers that publish a single application. There are 20 users
of the applications with dedicated workstations that should all have a device CAL, but everyday I see device CALs being issued from these servers (See below).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Scott

Hi Scott,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Have you find any Error\Event Id for this case?
From the description it appears that there is some misconfiguration for redirecting the server during load balancing the device CAL among the server and that’s why device is getting misplaced. You can please relook at configuration for License server with following
article.

You are describing what sounds like the Microsoft compatibility check tool. It runs to make sure whatever issues may occur are known before an upgrade to Windows 10. If you need a more solid solution I would suggest contacting Microsoft directly as it is their tool.

Latest windows 7 patches and firefoz 18 - firefox not working properly - shows stacked windows and does nothing

Jan 10 windows 7 patches, plus new firefox update today. Now firefox starts up and shows multiple, stacked window frames and "firefox not responding" messages on top border. after multiple firefox screen flashes (minutes of time), firefox may eventually display normal windows/frames. Selecting new site, firefox goes through same activities. Startup site is www.baynews9.com, then try going to www.cnn.com

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.

To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

Updates for Windows 7.5 and 7.8 devices

Will Lumia devices running on Windows 7.5 and 7.8 continue to receive major updates from Nokia and Microsoft improving their stability,adding new features and addressing issues?
Is the 7.8 the last updates for them?
Will they receive continued support from Nokia or will it be stopped in the near future like support for Symbian will be ceased by 2016 ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It will be continued support.
Symbian will cease support in 2016,maybe before that its now in maintenance mode

My MacBook Pro 13" (2012) is running Windows 7 on Bootcamp and there is an issue with the headset I'm using.

My MacBook Pro 13" (2012) is running Windows 7 on Bootcamp and there is an issue with the headset I'm using. I use a cheap Logitech Stereo Headset H130, but since there is only on audio plugin on the computer, I purchased a 3.5 mm 4-pin smartphone audio adapter thingy. That allowed me to put both my the sound coming to my headset & the microphone on my headset onto one wire. Everything worked wonderfully when running the Mac OS since they probably have support for that kind of stuff. The problem is though that once I try to use the same method in Windows 7, the OS doesn't recognize my headset microphone at all, but, instead when recording my voice decides to use the built-in mac microphone. Using this adapter still allows me to hear from my headset, but not use the microphone and that becomes a problem. It might be so that Windows 7 doesn't have support\drivers for that... How should I continue from here on out? Any advice?

From what I have read from others on here you may be out of luck. You would need the appropriate Windows drivers for the Cirrus chip in the Mac and no one has been able to successfully locate them. Apple wouldn't support this since Windows is an optional install.
Sorry to bring the bad news.
