WIndows 8.1 app tiles don't work since window update on 12/14/14

My computer with windows 8.1 went through several updates on 12/14/14 and now none of my window tiles will open and several are now missing. I tried to install them again, and it says go back to the app store and install them again. It doesn't work. I
tried. Any ideas? I've restarted the computer several times, still not working. Several tiles are there, but are blank now. Any help would be great. Thanks

Hi Karens23,
Till now there is no report or same case about Windows 8.1 App issue caused by update 12/14/2014.
Since Windows 8 will need to be activated before the Store and apps will work. You will need to either be signed in to Windows 8 or the Store with a Microsoft account to be able to use an app that uses a Microsoft service. So please make sure your Windows
activation state is still activated and Sync your app license again by using following steps.
Step 1: On the Start screen, tap or click Store.
Step 2: Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and tap Settings.
(If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then click Settings.)
Step 3: Tap or click App updates.
If you haven't signed in to the Windows Store, sign in using your Microsoft account.
Step 4: Tap or click Sync licenses.
If syncing the app license doesn't help, press
Win+R. Enter wsreset then click OK, In Windows 8.1 the store will simply open.
It resets the Windows Store without changing account settings or deleting installed apps
Then Check the following Registry Key by pressing
Win+R enter “regedit” click “OK”
( HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppModel\Repository\Packages)
Right click Packages select “permissions” and make sure
SYSTEM has all the following Rights checked:
Full control(allow)
Read(allow)
Special permission(allow)
If the issues persists, we recommended running Apps troubleshooter on your computer and see if it could find and fix this issue. You also could restore your system to a earlier point before 12/14/2014 or uninstall these
updates manually from control panel to see what happens. Then try update again.
About App troubleshooter:
You can download Apps troubleshooter from:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=268423
If you're still having trouble with the app after you running it, please upload the troubleshooting result and we will help you according to the results.

In app purchases don't work on windows app

Hi,
I've just put my app online in the Windows Store. (Invader Magazine)
Everything works great, exept one thing. My in app purchases don't work. I think i've done everything right.
I followed exectly these steps:
- Digital Publishing Suite Help | DPS publishing guide for Windows Store
- In my Dev windows account I've made an in app purchase for each folio
- I published my folio's wat the same product ID as V31 en set the status on public, retail.
I have done all these steps, but my app is empty, I see no folio.
I can only see the folio's when I publish them en set the status on public, free.
Am I missing something?

Hi,
In-app purchases on Windows work differently than on iOS. You shouldn't be making in-app purchase entries for each folio in your Windows Store listing.
See Digital Publishing Suite Help | DPS publishing guide for Windows Store for complete details on how in-app purchasing is different on Windows, and how to set it up correctly in the store. Once you have your consumable in-app purchase entry created for your store listing you'll need to request an updated custom viewer that incorporates that Windows Store product ID, then resubmit the app to Windows for approval.

App store login - not working since Mavericks update

All,
Since I updated to Mavericks, I find I am unable to log into the App Store. I get the login pane OK, enter my credentials, then get a spinner that waits... and waits... And never works.
The Apple ID I am using is good - iTunes likes it fine, and I'm using it to post this. Just the App Store, and only since the Mavericks update; indeed I used the Apple ID to install Mavericks...
Google tells me I am not the only one seeing this - but the suggested fixes do not seem to work for me. Do we know if a "proper" actual official fix wil be forthcoming?
Indeed, do Apple acknowledge that some folks are having a problem with this?
Anyway, in case anyone else stumbles onto this one:
- There are many threads suggesting that deleting the network plist helps (though did not for me)
- For some, deleting /Users/ian/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist helps (though not for me...)
- and so on.
What "works" for me, albeit as a workaround, is to create a new user account on the machine, and use that to access the App Store - with the same ID etc., but this time it works. At least one time, so far!
I'd much rather my regular account Just Worked.
Any of the accounts (myself, wife, etc.) on the machine before the Mavericks upgrade however; they can not log into the App Store any more.
No Idea why not; presumably "something" changed in the updates and that broke the login in some way; though why iTunes et al appear unaffected is less clear!

Just an update to note that, after leaving it alone for a while, I tried the app store again today and it now works from my regular account once again.
Which is nice...
No idea what changed in the meantime, but at least it appears to be working.

App store doesn't work since Mavericks Update.

I've been looking all over for a solution to this problem. Ever since I upgraded to Maverics on my 2010 iMAC, the app store is effectively dead. It takes a
long time to load the app. The icons (updates//purchases, etc) across the top do nothing and sometimes call a spinning ball of death. I can make it work by logging out (not even a restart) and logging back in again. It will work for a little while, then go out to lunch again. I've tried various fixes, including
     resetting PRAM
      clearning out caches/cookes and such that are appstore releated. (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5523685?tstart=0)
     fixing the permissions of the home folder (https://discussions.apple.com/message/22861032#22861032), which only confused the snot out of Carbonite.
     changing DNS to point to google's servers rather than my ISPs
     boot into restore partiion and reinstall Mavericks.
The only think that works is logging out and back in and using the app store app before doing much else.
Starting the appstore app provides these messges in the appstore.log file

Interestingly, I have 5 machines running Mavericks (2 iMacs, 2 MBAs and 1 MBP) and only one of the iMacs shows this problems. All of the other machines work flawlessly.
Is there any solution to this problem? It's driving me nuts.
thanks

ITunes and Quicktime don't work on Windows 7 64-bit

iTunes and Quicktime don't work on Windows 7 64-bit. I tried to uninstall and install the package according to Apple support article (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923) but still the same problem. I even tried to stop the Bonjour, it didn't help either. When I try to run either iTunes or Quicktime I get a Windows error message "iTunes has stopped working", with details like this:

Any suggestions?

Taken as a whole, the symptoms suggest that another application (other than QuickTime itself) has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view settings.
In your Start menu, open Computer.
In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "SysWOW64" folder.
What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Acrobat 9.5.1 update on Windows XP Error 1321 solutions don't work

Acrobat 9.5.1 update on Windows XP Error 1321 solutions don't work. I can't uninstall program. Error upon error.

Hi John,
I'm trying to install the SunMC 3.5.1 Console on
Windows XP with not much success. The install
displays the initial splash screen, but then fails
with the error :
The install wizard cannot proceed.
Aborting installation now...First, are you installing from a complete SunMC CD or CD image? If you just copied some files out of a CD/image you may have missed some jar files.
SunMC Consoles don't like to share systems with older versions of themselves. Try moving/renaming the directory your 3.5 Console is installed in (or uninstall it if you don't need it),... then try putting 3.5.1 in again.
All my demos/work/courses are on 3.5.1 on an XP laptop, so I know it works.
I think it's probably just not happy about 3.5 already being installed... so just move it out of the way for awhile to get 3.5.1 in (then put 3.5 back so you can have them both).
Regards,
Mike
The Java version is 1.4.2_03 .
The Release Notes etc don't give any clues.
Strangely, SunMC 3.5 works fine on this desktop..
Any ideas as to where I can go from here? This is
effectively stopping me from going from SMC 3.5 to
3.5.1, unless I can get the Console working..
Has anyone else had problems with SMC 3.5.1 on XP?
Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to delete some recently downloaded apps that don't work. They are faded grey and although they shake with the other apps, no cross appears in the top corner. Any ideas anyone? Thanks, Sean

I have the same issue witha slight variation. The app icons that are grayed out and cannot be deleted are DUPLICATES of other apps that I already have. For instance I now have 2 Redbox apps - one works normally, the other cannot be opened or deleted.

Since upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite Mail, Spotlight,Mission Control and App-Store don´t work correctly. Is it possible to return to Mavericks?

Since upgrading from Mavericks to Yosemite Mail, Spotlight, Mission Control and App-Store don´t work correctly. Is it possible to return to Mavericks?

If you have an external drive with an OS X Time Machine backup, then do restore of your last backup. If you have an external drive with a bootable clone of your previous system, you can boot to that clone and re-clone the OS X on your external drive back to your Mac's internal drive.
If you do not have either of these available, then the reverting/restoring process becomes much more complicated and involves purchasing an external drive and backing up your current system to that drive, then erasing, reformatting your hard drive and now your only options to installng an OS X version is doing a clean install of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, then upgrading, again, to either OS X 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion. OS X 10.9 Mavericks is no longer available for download and Apple has not made OS X 10.9 Mavericks available in any other form to be able to redownload and install.
Maybe it would be better to explain in detail your issues with Yosemite to see if any of us here can help you with your difficulties.
I am not running or using Yosemite, so I cannot help you with your Yosemite issues,
There are others here who can help you with Yosemite.
Good Luck.

Yes, it will do no harm, but it is meant for trouble shooting and you should not have to use it all the time.

Why safari 5 and itunes 10 don`t work with windows xp?

Some one knows why the mos recent version of safari and itunes don`t work on windows xp?

Define "don't work". Frankly that's about the most vague and useless statement without some clarification.

Apps That Don't Work - Asphalt Racing

Thanks in advance for your help.....
I bought and downloaded the Asphalt Racing game from the App store last night and the game gets to the point of you selecting a car and then shuts off. I tried multiple times and also deleted and re-downloaded and still had the problem. Ho do you go about getting refunds for Apps that don't work or is that not a possibility right now?

Hey dgny06,
Is this the only app with an issue?
Try deleting the app from the iPhone and downloading it again.
You will not be charged for the second download.

My iMessages don't work since updating. It says the Messages database is being upgraded, please wait while it finishes or Quit Messages and relaunch it later. How do I get them working again?

My iMessages don't work since updating. It says the Messages database is being upgraded, please wait while it finishes or Quit Messages and relaunch it later. How do I get them working again?

Back up all data.
Quit Messages if it’s running. Force quit if necessary. Relaunch it and test after each of the following steps. If the problem isn't resolved, quit again and go on to the next step.
Step 1
Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain.
From the Category list in the lower left corner of the window, select My Certificates. Look carefully at the list of certificates in the right side of the window. If any of them is marked with a red "X" as expired or invalid, delete it. Also delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name, whether valid or not.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences... ▹ Certificates
There are three menus in the window. Change the selection in the top two to Best attempt, and in the bottom one to CRL.
Log out and log back in.
Step 2
Hold down the option key and select
          Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Move the following items from the Library folder to the Trash (some may not exist):
          Containers/com.apple.corerecents.recentsd
          Caches/com.apple.Messages
          Caches/com.apple.imfoundation.IMRemoteURLConnectionAgent
          Containers/com.apple.iChat
          Containers/com.apple.soagent
          IdentityServices
Leave the Library folder open. Log out and log back in.
Step 3
Go back to the Finder and move the following item from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
          Messages
Note: you are not moving the Messages application. You’re moving a folder named “Messages.”
If Messages now works, delete the Messages folder on the Desktop. Otherwise, quit Messages again. Put back the folder you moved, overwriting the newer one that may have been created in its place.
Step 4
In the Preferences subfolder, there may be several files having names that begin with any of the following strings:
          com.apple.iChat
          com.apple.ids
          com.apple.imdsmsrecordstore
          com.apple.imessage
          com.apple.imservice
Move them all to the Desktop. There may also be a file with the name "com.apple.imagent.plist". Move that to the Trash.
Also in the Preferences folder, there's a subfolder named "ByHost". Open it and do the same thing.
Log out and log back in. Test again. This time Messages should perform normally, but your settings will be lost. You may be able to put back some of the files you moved to the Desktop in this step. Relaunch and test after each one. Eventually you should find one or more that causes Messages to malfunction. Delete those files and recreate whatever settings they contained.
If the issue is still not resolved, quit Messages again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were. You don’t need to replace the items you moved to the Trash. Stop here and post your results.
If you later decide that you don’t like the results of Steps 3 and 4, you can undo them completely by quitting Messages and restoring the items you deleted in those steps from your backup.

I have apps loaded on my iPad. they show in the main screen are not available to load documents to in the window list which should appear below the main window. the same apps do appear in the sub window on my other iPad. any ideas?

From what I can see, unless you're doing things with old versions of Xcode on a Mac (in which case, the solution seems to be to upgrade to the latest version), this seems to e an iTunes issue.
Accepting that it works fine with another iPad, I suggest trying the following:
1. Restart the non-working iPad
2. If that doesn't work, reinstall iTunes. If you're on a Windows PC, I suggest using Control Panel to uninstall all the Apple apps, restarting the PC, and doing a fresh install. If you're using a Mac, a repair permissions might help too.
iTunes 10.3 is now available, and that may make a difference.
