Windows encountered problem

Hi all,
I have a problem on my Windows Vista that began afetr the purchase of an external Hard Disk Freecom.
A few days afetr the purchase I disconnected it while it was writing and, since that moment, every time I connect and disconnect it, the PC go to freeze mode for 5 minutes.
The same thing happen even if the hard disk is disconnected: every time I start windows it go to freeze a little after the password, and every time I connect and disconnect a usb device.
I have looked for the solution everywhere, updated windows, unistalled and installed the hard disk from the device manager but I solved the problem only when I restored a recent backup.
Yesterday the Hard disk was writing a backup while Vista was installing the updates; at the end of the proceure windows restarted automatically and the problem began again!!!
The Pc go to freeze when it starts, every time I connect or disconnect the hard disk, an usb earphone that has always worked switch on but there is no audio and I don't know how many others usb devices will have problems.
Has anyone an idea to solve this problem before I throw out of the window Vista or the the hard disk?
Thank you

Hello
As far as I know here in Europe you will not be able to order recovery media for US notebook models. if you have someone in US they should contact nearest Authorized service provider and order it for you. Later they send it to you.
If you need addresses and phone numbers check http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/home.jsp?nav=Repair&sn=false

  • "Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo."

    ***** UPDATE July 17, 2013 @ 9:16 am Central Time (UTC -06:00)*****
    After Creating a fresh catalog I have been able to clarify the issue a bit. This error appears to only show up in Folders exported as Catalogs. Particularly when I try and open that exported catalog.
    I suspect there is a problem with the way Lightroom 5 is exporting these catalogs. I didn't have this issue with LR4.4, but it shows up any time I export a folder as a catalog within LR5, regardless of whether or not it is exported from an upgraded catalog or a fressly created catalog.
    It looks like fixing the problem is going to be time consuming, but not impossible. So far I have confirmed that these files - reported as throwing this error by Lightroom 5 ("Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo .... You will not be able to make adjustment to this photo.") - can be imported into a new/existing catalog by multiple methods without carrying over the errors displayed in the exported catalog.
    This is frustrating and adds additional steps to my workflow, but isn't undoable. Of course it would be nice if LR5 worked as correctly and exported folders as catalogs without throwing errors when those new catalogs were opened...
    Is anyone else seeing this problem when they open catalogs created by "exporting a folder as a catalog"?
    ***** Original Post *****
    I'm really confused. I am consistently getting this message on certain exports, but not others...
    When it happens:
    1) "Export this Folder as a Catalog" from a specific folder within my Working Catalog
         Select the location
         Select "Export negative files"
    When I open the NEW Catalog - ALL the photos reflect this error message: "Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo .... You will not be able to make adjustment to this photo."
    When I go to the Develop tab it displays "There was an error working with the photo" over the photo, but I can edit it... When I close the catalog and re-open it, the changes don't reflect UNTIL I go back to the Develop tab, then the thumbnail will reflect the change. But the system still insists that it has a problem with the file...
    2) The same thing happens when I export the file from my Working Catalog as an image of the same format - be it tif, dng, or psd, or RAW files. Not sure what I was refering to here (can't duplicate today - July 17).
    When it doesn't happen:
    When I export the file to the auto import folder for my Portfolio catalog (original format). This seems to work...
    Why am I so confused? Because all of these catalogs are located on the same drive (which is different than the drive my Working Catalog is on). When they are auto imported to my Portfolio catalog they seem to work, but everything else throws an error sinse I upgraded to LR5!
    My System:
    Windows 7 Pro SP1 (fully up to date) 64-bit
    Intel Core i7 CPU 950 @ 3.07GHz
    Installed RAM: 12.0 GB
    My Lightroom 5 Working Catalog doesn't seem to be having any problems...
    This problem is frustrating enough that I may go back to LR4. I can't have my archived files compromised...

    Suggestion to all who encounter problems like this: if you've installed 3rd party memory cards (ram), go back to your original ram, or at least the brand of ram that your computuer came with.
    Long story, short:
    I had the same error message in LR5.  It only happened with several images in a given import.  If I deleted all of the images from the import and reimported the images, a different set of images would have the error message.  The images that originally had the message would no longer have the problem.  I deleted and reimported several times while observing the same behavior. 
    Not only did lightroom give me issues, but Bridge had problems reading the files, and the previews of the problem images would not show up in Finder (Mac speak).  This ruled out, to me at least, that it was a software issue.  I went out and purchased a new card reader and had the same problems.  I tried a different card with different images and got the same problems. 
    After I contacted Adobe, they had me upload two files with the error, and they said the files were corrupted due to faulty hardware.  I took my mac book pro (13in early 2011 w/ 10.7.5) to the apple store and they ran a diagnostic test amoung other test and we came up with nothing.  Everything seemed to be good on the hardware side.  After some research the Rep. asked me about my ram (memory cards).  I had in the past installed two 3rd party cards to boost my ram from 4GB to 8GB. The rep. suggested that I go home and test the issue with the original ram my computer came with before we go any farther.  So far, I haven't had any issues. 
    I hope this helps,
    Josef

  • Encountering Problems with Basic Sound Tutorial

    Hello everyone,
    I am encountering problems with a basic sound tutorial. I am absolutely confused as to what the problem may be because the code is so simple, and is essentially copied from the textbook. I am convinced that I have done something very silly but cannot see it.
    I have attempted to run this in an appletviewer, Firefox and Internet Explorer. I have attempted to launch it from both a .class file and a .jar file. I have uninstalled and offline installed the JDK and JRE and successfully tested the new installations.
    The audio file I am attempting to load and play is an .AU (Sun/Next 8-bit u-law) audio file I created in Audacity. It is located in the same folder as the AudioApplet.class file.
    My sound system is defintely on, since I have listened to music all day. I have attempted running the program with Media Player closed.
    package edu.myuniversityid.sandbox;
    import java.applet.Applet;
    import java.applet.AudioClip;
    * @author Ibuki
    public class AudioApplet extends Applet
         * Initialization method that will be called after the applet is loaded
         * into the browser.
        public void init()
            super.init();
            AudioClip ac = this.getAudioClip(this.getDocumentBase(), "sample.au");
            ac.play();
    }The code compiles fine, however absolutely I get a small white window when it is run. No sound.
    Thankyou for your time.
    Regards,
    Ibuki.
    PS. I am sure this worked before the university forced me to update my version of Windows to SP2. Hence, the reason for reinstalling Java. Twice.
    Edited by: Ibuki on Jan 31, 2008 11:09 AM becasuse: Added a PS.

    I have attempted this alternative, without success:
        public void init()
            try
                super.init();
                URL url = new URL(this.getDocumentBase(), "sample.au");
                AudioClip ac = this.getAudioClip(url);
                ac.play();
            catch (MalformedURLException ex)
                Logger.getLogger(AudioApplet.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
        }The sample.au is definetly in the correct directory. Both File Explorer and NetBeans confirm this.
    Edited by: Ibuki on Jan 31, 2008 11:59 AM
    I have discovered a temporary solution that works in the applet viewer. The applet will load and plays the correct music perfectly. However, using this code it is not working when I try to deploy it using a web browser (MSIE and FF)!
    public void init()
            super.init();
            AudioClip ac = this.getAudioClip(this.getClass().getResource("sample.au"));
            ac.play();
    Edited by: Ibuki on Jan 31, 2008 12:12 PM
    Eureka!
    Having worked in the applet viewer I managed to get it working in the web browser by simply packaging my SoundApplet.class and sample.au into a .jar archive.
    <html>
         <body>
              <applet code="edu.myuniversityid.sandbox.AudioApplet.class" archive="dist/AudioApplet.jar">Unfortunately, this applet content cannot be displayed on this web page because your current browser does not support Java SE 6! Please <a href="http://www.java.com/">update your version of Java</a>.</applet>
         </body>
    </html>
    public void init()
            super.init();
            AudioClip ac = this.getAudioClip(this.getClass().getResource("sample.au"));
            ac.play();
        }Thankyou everyone.

  • Has anyone else encountered problems with Adobe CMM clobbering Photoshop add-in filters?

    I recently tried to install Adobe CMM, as a pop-up window suggested after I installed Photoshop CS5 on a new computer, running Win7x64 Ultimate. Before trying to install CMM, my Akvis Sketch Plug-In for Photoshop worked fine. Afterwards, Akvis Sketch runs under the filters menu, but will not accept mouse clicks from my Wacom tablet. Prior to Adobe CMM, all was fine. Somehow, the frustrating attempt to use Adobe CMM broke links to Akvis Sketch.
    By the way, Adobe CMM setup tried to run and vanished without a trace - no indication of success or failure. CMM doesn't show on my control panel as installed software, so I can't de-install it.
    I did un-install Akvis Sketch and re-install it. No luck as a filter, nor as a stand-alone program.
    Additional point of interest - a second identical software/hardware workstation continues to run Akvis Sketch just fine because we didn't try installing Adobe CMM on that machine. It certainly looks like CMM is the culprit here.
    Since Akvis Sketch is broken as a stand-alone, I doubt that de-activating, uninstalling and then re-installing, re-activating Photoshop CS5 will help, but it will take a lot of time to recreate actions and re-install other add-ins, plus preferences settings.
    Has anyone else encountered problems with Adobe CMM clobbering Photoshop add-in filters, and have you found a work-around?

    Thanks for your response. Recent evidence points to Wacom's tablet driver, not the plug-in.
    Fact #1 - another identical system with ms mouse worked fine so I swapped out the Wacom tablet and bingo, the Akvis plug-in works again.
    Fact #2 - So does Amazon's Kindle for PC app, which also quit working after running the Adobe CMM setup I'd downloaded.
    Suggestion - since there's a legacy for CS5 users getting the "you should download CMM" pop-up, yet no need to do this, maybe Adobe should remove the CMM download page from its website - or flag this download as unneccessary for photoshop users. All Best, Charles Pierce.

  • PPro CS4 - ImporterProcessServer.exe has encountered problem, unknown error

    Hi,
    I'm using XP SP3, RAM 3GB, CS4 Master Collection Trial Version 30 days.
    New comers CS5 is in 64 bit, so is not our option, our PC only 32bit.
    We going to buy CS4, but seems during product assesment not so impresive.
    During Exporting/Encoding video, import from mix .swf, .jpg, .avi. but most of time came out error message "ImporterProcessServer.exe has encountered problem ... ". Check on log file Unknow Error

    I have look thru the previous posts, but I still not sure what is the real problem, H/W spec problem, Windows problem, or CS4 Trial problem?
    From prev post I conclude some posibilities:
    Need to troublehost, http://premierepro.wikia.com/wiki/Troubleshooting
    CS4 more problem, downgrade CS3 is option, CS3 no problem
    Windows C++ problem, need to reformat.
    etc.
    If we have to thoubleshot then problem, I just need to edit the video.
    So should we proceed to buy CS4? Otherwise will try other product.
    We have 2 general around, Gen. Bill Hunt and Gen. Harm Milaard, hope can give enlightment.
    Thank you.

  • Error message: Installation encountered problems, please try redownloading.

    Hi,
    just tried to update the Flash Player to the newest version. However, the installers provided at this site (http://get.adobe.com/de/flashplayer) seem to work improperly. On my 64-bit Win 7 Pro system all works fine, but on my laptop (32-bit Win 7 Pro) it keeps saying "Installation encountered problems. An error occured. Close this window and start download again." This happens with both the Firefox and IE installer.
    I managed to update FP with the offline installers, but I'm interested in the reason anyway. Is it a broken installer, is it a configuration problem of my laptop, or is it another problem? Would be very happy if anyone knows about this issue!
    Thanks

    Usually, it's a firewall problem with the "downloader/installer". I always use the offline installers to avoid any bundled software.

  • Crw32.exe has encountered problems...

    I am getting the Windows error &#39;crw32.exe has encountered problems&#39; when opening a report that I just created in Crystal Reports XI hitting an Oracle db.  Windows shuts down CR.  This has happened to me a twice today.  My only recourse is to start the report over from scratch.  The report isn&#39;t particularly complicated - 4 groups with summaries and a GIF logo in the header.  Any suggestions or questions for more information would be appreciated.  This is very frustrating.

    Ive had some suggestions for you to try. Apparently this might be down to a driver issue although it would also help to know if you are running on Windows Vista or on an older version of Windows.Â
    If you are using the Microsoft ODBC driver, can you try instead switching and using the Oracle ODBC driver.Â
    You can get Oracleâu20AC(tm)s ODBC drivers here:  http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/windows/odbc/index.html
    Can you see if that helps ?

  • Same Problem - Different Scenario: Encountering Problems running Mac OS X c

    Same Problem - Different Scenario: Encountering Problems running Mac OS X commands.
    Hi. I'm having a weird experience on opening document using
    the Microsoft word 2008 application in MAC OS X.
    To be specific on what is the scope of my application.
    What I'm trying to do is run or simulate my application on appletviewer on a certain pop-up HTML
    document. The first part of my statement block on my code doing well on
    executing the downloading process of a file and save it on local machine.
    This portion of works fine.
    But the thing that I'm having some difficulties is
    whenever i Re-opened the downloaded file from my local machine
    that is being downloaded from my server.
    I'm trying to established a checking or triggering pattern that the
    file from my local machine was modified or not.
    doing this execution I'm using the following code below to figure it out:
    java code:
    portion of calling the trigger part
    if((nMacEditMode = editFileViaMac(clientFile)) == 1)
    baseApplet.addMsg("Opened and edited file on local machine ...");
    else
    if(nMacEditMode == 3)
    baseApplet.addMsg("Opening and editing of file on local machine failed! Try again!!");
    else
    baseApplet.addMsg("No changes made. Server file unchanged! You may close this window.");
    portion of the runtime execution of opening the file via MAC OS X
    public int editFileViaMac(String wordFileName)
    try
    String cFile = wordFileName.trim().replaceAll(" ", "\\ ");
    wordPath = wordPath.trim().replaceAll(" ", "\\ ");
    Process wordProcess =null;
    Date startTime;
    Date endTime;
    File wordFile = new File(cFile);
    startTime = new Date(wordFile.lastModified());
    String[] myCommand = { "open", "-a", wordPath, wordFile.getAbsolutePath(), "-W" };
    wordProcess = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(myCommand);
    wordProcess.waitFor();
    endTime = new Date(wordFile.lastModified());
    if (startTime.before(endTime))
    return 1;
    return 2;
    catch(Exception ex)
    baseApplet.addMsg("Method Error : editFileViaMac() - "+ex.getMessage());
    ex.printStackTrace();
    return 3;
    Now the weird things happen here.
    The file was able to opened- as I wanted to, but when a made changes or not doing anything.
    The Microsoft Word 2008 application on the MAC Activity Monitor. The instance was still alive or
    keep running and I execute MAC commands being implement on the Process on the Terminal and it still
    stuck in that thing. which means I have to manually kill the process of the said application on
    the GUI part of Task Manager of MAC and my 2nd statement on the if replies.
    Any thoughts will glady appreciated.

    Please ensure new topics are posted in an appropriate forum. I have moved this thread from "news & updates" but in future posts made there in error will be deleted.

    Your not weird, your a audiophile.

    Good sound costs money. And with a 5.1 system your usually doing surround sound decoding for BlueRay movies etc. for home theater purposes.
    The PC 5.1 surround sound systems require a audio card in a PC tower and mainly used for playing 3D games so that won't work for any Mac at all. So don't buy a PC 5.1 surround sound system for your Mac.
    Harmon Kardon has the GoPlay, it's a portable stereo with awesome sound (not as good as their theater systems) and you can hook up a analog male/male stereo mini cable to it from the Mac.
    $200 and it has a iPod dock and also takes like 8 batteries so it's portable.
    http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002GHBTNC
    There is also the Bose Wave clock/radio, you will need a stereo mini to RCA break out cable for that.

    The GoPlay has much better sound than the Bose, I think the Bose are overpriced.

  • Problem Syncing Outlook....says outlook sync client encountered problem

    I have been syncing outlook calendar and contacts from my PC to my iPhone with no problems. I have version 1.1.2 on my iPhone and 7.5 or whatever the latest is on iTunes software. The syncs were fine until recently and now I cant sync and get an error message that says "outlook sync client encountered problem" What could possibly have happened....I read some posts that say to go back to iTunes 7.3 etc....this has to be a common problem....any suggestions.

    Here is an article from the apple support website that might help out.

  • Error message- "LR has encountered problems reading this photo" after installing LR 5.6 on new computer and retrieving all contents from old HD from external HD.

    Hi-
    I got a new PC laptop, retrieved all old HD contents from my external HD, installed LR 5.6 (5.4 on previous PC) and when I tried to open up my old Lightroom catalog it has an error saying "Lightroom has encountered problems reading this photo.  You will not be able to make adjustments to this photo".  I tried to open the catalog straight from my external HD with the same error message. I've read about four billion forum threads to try to figure it out- files do not seem to be missing as most threads indicate.  The other threads suggest there is a corruption with the file, but I don't THINK that is the case.  Are there any other suggestions?   If the file is corrupted, how do I find out for sure?  Have I lost all my edits?? 
    Thanks for your help and time!
