Windows 8.1 update, no calendar!

I have a Nokia Lumia 520, Windows 8 phone. I upgraded to Windows 8.1, but now my calendar won't start /open. I tried to download the calendar update .247, it takes me to the app store, and shows me the details of the app, but there isn't an install button...so I can't download it! Any suggestions?

Reset the phone, known to happen sometimes

Trigger Windows Store Apps update by script at first login

Hi
Is it possible to trigger Windows 8.1 to check for Windows Store Apps updates at first login?
My issue is that when I add language packs to my Windows 8.1 images, the default apps (Mail, Calendar, Food and Drinks) are still in English. Not until the Windows Store apps are updated will they change to the correct language (Language of the
OS). I have turned on autodownload in the registry using this registry key:
REG ADD "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsStore\WindowsUpdate" /v "AutoDownload" /t REG_DWORD /d 4 /f
It seems kind of random how long it takes before the autodownload kicks in. Some times it just a reboot and other times it takes like 24 hours. Can I trigger this update to start with some kind of script?

Windows Live Mail could not be started. Closing Windows Live Mail. Your calendar contains corrupt data that is forcing Windows Live Mail to close. (0x8E5E0247

Hi
Can you please HELP??
I recently had to change my hard drive for my laptop (Sony Vaio). The IT guy replaced my HDD and ghost all my information
from old to new drive. Everything works perfect except for Windows Live Mail.
When I open WLM I get this error:
“Windows Live Mail could not be started. Closing Windows Live Mail. Your calendar contains corrupt data that is forcing
Windows Live Mail to close. (0x8E5E0247)”
I have since done the following:
PROBLEM SOLUTION 1:
1. Close Windows Live Mail and any other Windows Live programs.
2. Click Start (then Run for
Windows XP), paste the following path below and press Enter:
%Localappdata%\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail\Calendars
3. Rename the folder of the account you use to sign in to Windows Live Mail to
sync your calendar (ex. rename [email protected] to [email protected]).
4. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.
5. Launch Windows Live Mail again.
THIS DID NOT WORK SO I DID THE FOLLOWING:
PROBLEM SOLUTION 2:
I removed WLM (uninstall) and reinstalled and still nothing.
PROBLEM SOLUTION 3:
I also renamed the WLM folder and reinstalled WLM, then deleted the new WLM folder and still nothing.
PROBLEM SOLUTION 4:
I also tried to import my emails from WLM to Microsoft Outlook but I only have a copy of my mails from the directory.
I do not have an EXPORT copy saved anywhere. Is there any way I can export the WLM to Microsoft outlook?
PLEASE HELP I AM AT WITS END.

I have had many problems with permissions on Windows Vista, 7,8 & 81.1. It is usually after an update or installation, especially one that requires a reboot to finish (some AVG, Windows Live, Windows Updates, etc). Once File(s), Folder(s)
and Registry Key(s) permissions are screwed up, it can take days to work them out if ever.
After having spent several hours on a clients PC and online forums with this problem. I transferred her user profile with a free program called
Transwiz (run as Administrator) to a zip file on the HDD. I renamed her user in manage User Accounts to "Username old". I then ran Transwiz again to restore the profile but telling it to create a new user using the original Username.
After it completed restoring the profile, I logged out of "Username old" and logged in to Username and all wass well, I only needed to supply the email password which is not transferred. When you move profile data, all the old permissions
have to be removed and <st1:personname w:st="on">new</st1:personname> permissions added so the data and files belong to the <st1:personname w:st="on">new</st1:personname> user. This cleared up all the permission
problems.

Windows 8.1 Update is Garbage

I tried to install the Windows 8.1 update. After 3 hours I found that I only had a blank screen with no keyboard or mouse response. I called into tech support at Microsoft and after waiting and waiting on hold I was told that it might be a video
driver issue. Meantime, I now have a machine that can no long boot. After several reboots and hitting F8 constantly I was able to get the machine to restore the original operating system, Windows 8 Pro. Then I found out that it did something to 2 of my usb
ports that now no longer work. I have 3 ports on my Dell XPS 15 and only one of them works now. I cannot find any errors or anyway to reinitialize the 2 ports. Any suggestions? I should have never tried to run this upgrade what a complete waste of time, and
what a complete piece of crap update. Do Not install this update!!!!

There seems to be an ongoing theme: People who are comfortable with undertaking in-depth reconfiguration of their operating system and can rely on their large accumulated base of knowledge from past releases can get Windows 8 to
work.
For me Win 8.1 - the fresh install I mentioned up above - is still working every bit as solidly as Windows 7 did for me: no crashes, no glitches. I give it hard daily serious desktop use. Last bootup
was more than a week ago. So far the longest stretch I've gone between reboots mandated by Windows Updates or software installs has been 17 days. It's never crashed.
But I'm under no misconception, even though I've written a book on how to do it,
that Windows 8.1 is an easy system for the masses to use. With 38 years computer engineering experience I can tell you honestly that it taxed me to my limits to turn it into something with which I can get my work done. Windows 7
took some skill as well to get running right, but not nearly as much as Windows 8.
Meanwhile, Microsoft does things like not even bother to document it (try clicking a link in an event log dialog, for example). There comes a price for reducing support: Fewer people get it to work well for them. Fewer people can write
good drivers for it. Fewer people can use it.
Those who know what they're doing worry that Microsoft has lost the very ability to continue to engineer Windows at the professional level. This version certainly doesn't do
anything better than its predecessor to make it worth putting up with all the negative changes.

Unable to install SQL Server 2014 Express LocalDb on Windows 8.1 Update 1

Apologies if this is not the right place or this has been posted before (I looked and didn't find anything)
I am unable to install SQL Server 2014 Express LocalDb on Windows 8.1 Update 1, as I get an 'Operating System not Supported' error message right away.
What can I do to get this working?

Hi Zgreve,
Usually, from
hardware and software requirements for installing SQL Server 2014, we can install SQL Server Express version on the Windows 8.1. For more information, see:
Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Express.
Before you install SQL Server 2014 Express version, you should ensure installing the .NET Framework 4, then run as administrator for the SQL Server setup.exe again.
There is a similar detail about install SQL Server Express LocalDB via GUI and command line. You can also review the following steps.
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2694/getting-started-with-sql-server-2012-express-localdb/
If the same error about OS still exists, I recommend you submitting a feedback to Microsoft such issues at

Windows 8.1 update problem on LENOVO Y510P

Hey guys,
Can't find anything similar to my problem and exhausted my options on this, so decided to ask. If it has been answered I couldn't find, so please point me out on the right direction.
Back history:
Have a lenovo y510p
Bought caddy & SSD drive and installed it onto laptop
Couldn't find a good doc about how to proced so my idea was
1-restore factory settings,
2-Copied the Windows C: partition and the SYSTEM_DRV partition to the SSD using Macrium reflect
3-Went on the BIOS boot order and set the SSD to boot first.
4-Voila, works fine, boots C: on the SSD and it's super fast.
Problem:
Windows 8.1 update can't install on C:. Bummer
I receive a notification saying that I can update to windows 8.1, which I want to do.
1 Hit ok to download,
2 it starts the update process,
3 finishes installing,
4 says it needs to restart
5-RESTARTS TO THE OLD DRIVE, changing the boot order on the BIOS (**bleep**???)
I then check that nothing was installed even on the old drive, proceed to shut down computer, change boot order back to SSD drive, start windows and receive a message that it couldn't be installed and it has reverted the installation.
Has anyone ever experienced that?
My idea now is to
Back up my computer again
Restore factory settings (on old drive)
Install windows 8.1 to old drive
Clone windows partition over
Change BIOS to boot up on SSD.
HOWEVER my question is: What happens when I want to install Windows 10 ? Do you think I'll face the same issue?
Should I somehow format the old drive's windows partition to prevent this from happening ?
Any help is welcome and I thank you all in advance,
Cheers

Did you erase the recovery partition on the old drive? My best guess is to create recovery discs or thumbdrive take the old drive out and put the new drive in and use the discs or thumbdrive to restore the system. Then run the updates and then copy your personal information from the old disc to the new disc.
As for Windows 10, I do not know if they are going to be doing a clean install with the update to windows 10 or doing an in place update so it is hard to know what problems you will encounter.

Problem with iPhone 6 driver on Windows 8.1 Update

Hi guys,
Each new device brings new questions: in my case, it's about Windows 8.1 Update (64-bit) not being able to install the proper driver for my new iPhone 6.
Strangely, I don't have any problem syncing my phone with iTunes via USB, but that won't work over WiFi, and when I plug it into one of the PC's USB ports, I get this window stating that Windows is trying to install the proper driver, but it hangs, then fails.
Of course, the phone shows in Windows Explorer, but when I double-click on the icon, it shows as empty.
Have you guys experienced the same thing?

Hey Jeff,
Now that you mention it, I may have botched the job when I reinstalled iTunes on that PC: I don't remember allowing the install of the Apple Mobile Device Support...
I'll give it a go and holler if things go South...

Hi Kirbs13,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Your calendar should automatically update if you're using iCloud. If it is not, see this article for troubleshooting steps:

EWS API - Impersonating to update a calendar item created by any other user than a service account, raise an error "Access is denied. Check credentials and try again."

Hi,
I am new to using EWS managed APIs.
Following is the issue:
1. I am using a service account e.g. [email protected]. This user is a global administrator and also has ApplicationImpersonation role assigned. (Sign into Online Office 365 account -> Admin -> select "Exchange" tab- > select Permissions
on the left panel -> create an impersonation role -> assign ApplicationImpersonation in Roles: and [email protected] in Members: -> Click on save)
2. Create a calendar item by other user for e.g. [email protected], and invite an attendee - [email protected].
3. In a c# program, I connect to EWS service using a service account - [email protected], fetch its calendar events. If organizer of an event is some other user - [email protected] then
I use impersonation in the following way to update the calendar event/item properties- subject, body text etc.
        private static void Impersonate(string organizer)
            string impersonatedUserSMTPAddress = organizer;
            ImpersonatedUserId impersonatedUserId =
                new ImpersonatedUserId(ConnectingIdType.SmtpAddress, impersonatedUserSMTPAddress);
            service.ImpersonatedUserId = impersonatedUserId;
4. It was working fine till yesterday afternoon. Suddenly, it started throwing an exception "Access is denied. Check credentials and try again." Whenever I try to
update that event.
       private static void FindAndUpdate(ExchangeService service)
            CalendarView cv = new CalendarView(DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now.AddDays(30));
            cv.MaxItemsReturned = 25;
            try
                FindItemsResults<Item> masterResults = service.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, cv);
                foreach (Appointment item in masterResults.Items)
                    if (item is Appointment)
                        Appointment masterItem = item as Appointment;
                        if (!masterRecurEventIDs.Contains(masterItem.ICalUid.ToString()))
                            masterItem.Load();
                            if (!masterItem.Subject.Contains(" (Updated content)"))
                                //impersonate organizer to update and save for further use
                                Impersonate(masterItem.Organizer.Address.ToString());
                                // Update the subject and body
                                masterItem.Subject = masterItem.Subject + " (Updated content)";
                                string currentBodyType = masterItem.Body.BodyType.ToString();
                                masterItem.Body = masterItem.Body.Text + "\nUpdated Body Info:
xxxxxxxxxxxx";
                                // This results in an UpdateItem operation call to EWS.
                                masterItem.Update(ConflictResolutionMode.AutoResolve);
                                // Send updated notification to organizer of an appointment
                                CreateAndSendEmail(masterItem.Organizer.Address.ToString(), masterItem.Subject);
                                masterRecurEventIDs.Add(masterItem.ICalUid.ToString());
                            else
                                Console.WriteLine("Event is already updated. No need to update again.:\r\n");
                                Console.WriteLine("Subject: " + masterItem.Subject);
                                Console.WriteLine("Description: " + masterItem.Body.Text);
            catch (Exception ex)
                Console.WriteLine("Error: " + ex.Message);
5. What could be an issue here? Initially I thought may be its a throttling policy which is stopping same user after making certain API call limits for the day, but I am still seeing this issue today.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Your logic doesn't sound correct here eg
2. Create a calendar item by other user for e.g. [email protected], and invite an attendee - [email protected]
3. In a c# program, I connect to EWS service using a service account - [email protected], fetch its calendar events. If organizer of an event is some other user - [email protected] then
I use impersonation in the following way to update the calendar event/item properties- subject, body text etc.
When your connecting to [email protected] mailbox the only user that can make changes to items within
abccalendar is abc (or ABC's delegates). If your impersonating the Organizer of the appointment pqr that wouldn't work unless the organizer had rights to abc's calendar. If you want to make updates to a calendar
appointment like that you should connect to the Organizers mailbox first update the original, send updates and then accept the updates.
When you impersonate your impersonating the security context of the Mailbox your impersonating so its the same a logging on as that user in OWA or Outlook.
Cheers

Why is a subscribed calendar not updating in Calendar on iPhone?

There is a subscribed calendar I control which I use regularly in Calendar (iCal). When I make changes to the source of the calendar on the web, the changes to the subscribed calendar are very quickly update in Calendar on my MacBook, which I appreciate. However, this does not successfully occur in Calendar on my iPhone. I have been trying to figure out off-and-on for a couple weeks why it doesn't update in Calendar for iPhone. I have spent no less than ½-hour working on it, via trying to edit the calendar, look at settings, double-check which calendars are showing to make sure it's the correct one, etc., etc., and I cannot figure it out. Why are changes to a subscribed calendar showing up successfully in Calendar on Mac but not in Calendar on iPhone?

Hey xcwomac.
I did some research and found this:

Looking for a site that shows problems with windows patches or updates.

Looking for a site that shows problems with windows patches or updates...so I know what not to install.
Plenty of sites list and summarize individual patches, I want one that consolidates problems and complaints so I can better assess the risk. Currently I'm waiting to install patches several days and doing google searches. That works, but I'd rather find a place
that does it with expertise.
Which forums would be best to look for such problems.
Thanks in and advance for suggestions

Hi,
I agreed with Cyber and Rick.
Windows update helps to keep your PC safer—and your software current—by fetching the latest security and feature updates from Microsoft via the Internet.
Although there might be some problems when installing it, Windows update is not the one to blame.

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
Solved!
Go to Solution.

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?
