Windows update prevents me from upgrading to Windows 10

From what I understand, I won't be able to get the Windows 10 upgrade without downloading all the past Windows updates first. The problem I'm having is, whenever I do, my computer reboots to nothing but black screen with flickering cursor, which causes me to do a hard reboot and then a system restore. I've had this issue for months with windows update and haven't been running them, but now, it seems if I want Windows 10, I don't have a choice. Please help!

Additionally, I tried the official Media Creation tool that I downloaded from Microsoft but that just tells me "Something Happened" Installation halted.

I am using a Palm Pilot still for several purposes, and the desktop version can run om my Mac OS X 10.6.8, but I cannot find a version that runs on OS X Mavericks, which prevents me from upgrading as my PalmPilot is storage for vital info.

I am using a Palm Pilot still for several purposes, and the desktop version can run om my Mac OS X 10.6.8, but I cannot find a version thjat runs on OS X Mavericks, which prevents me from upgrading as my PalmPilot is storage for vital info. Any solution?

Thank for for your suggestions. Unfortunately they are of little help. I am running on Snow Leopard and the PalmDesktop works fine. However, I do not want to quit my PalmTungsten unit as it is my backup for all my important access information. If it cannot run on Mavericks and no other solution is at hand, I simply will not update my OS X, but work on my Snow Leopard as it is.
I do not know how on earth I can migrate the information from my Palm into another system, and then quit the PalmPilot. If you have any intelligent solutions to this I would appreciate an input. A manual copy and paste solution is not acceptable. I may however run it on Windows via Parallel Desktop, but it is a lousy solution, and demonstrates (again) the weakness of Apple's OS and lack of compatibility. I am not impressed by the OS X performance.
Thank your for your attention.

I am trying to install Photoshop Elements on my new Windows 8 computer (I recently upgraded my windows 7 computer where Photoshop was working fine on before). It says the serial number is invalid. Do older versionsnot work on Windows8, or do I need to uninstall it from my old computer first?

You are allowed to have two activated installations. If you happened to have one on this Windows 8 machine before, it is possible that the activation used for it was never deactivated (did you deactivate it before you upgraded Windows?). Talk to Adobe support thru chat. They might be able to resolve this with you:

I wanted to know if you are asking for the html version or you want the html itself. ..I want you to post the complete, (but short & validated) HTML used to test this applet, directly into the thread - with code tags. I'm really not sure what you mean by the HTML 'version'. The only thing I can associate with that is HTML Spec. 3.2, 4.01, 5.0 etc., but I cannot see how it relates to anything I mentioned (and in any case, the 'version' should be obvious from the copy/pasted HTML).
..The website is our client website and this problem is coming during login. I won't be able to share the credentials with you. I don't want any 'credentials', but I will expect that if you are serious about solving this problem, you will set up a version of the applet at a public URL so others can see it fail if they think it will help solve the problem. Of course, what you do is up to you, because ultimately it is your problem, not ours. (I just thought I'd stress that last part to indicate to you that it is your onus to encourage people to read, experiment & answer.)
The only change I need to do to make it work is enable update 23 and disable update 24 in Java Control Panel.Have you tried searching the bug database for hits? There were some security updates in 1.6.0_24 that affected a number of things, including copy and access to the Robot. Perhaps there was a bug introduced at the same time.
..Unless I have misunderstood & what you are trying to do is somehow related to (yet) another security bug fix. ;)

Prevent JVM from exit on Windows with an Atl-F4

The "Alt-F4" key combination can be used to kill my Java program.
Would anyone know of a way to prevent this?
Since this only needs to be stopped on Windows and the
application does bundle the "JRE" with it (we therefore
control which version of Java we are using). I was thinking
of trying to use the sun.misc.SignalHandler to intercept what
I assume would be the SIGINT or SIGTERM associated with
the "Alt-F4".
Has anyone else done this?

Actually I do use JNA to capture and forward the keyboard events. The JNA keyboard hook however
does NOT see the Alt-F4 sequence. (My guess is the OS's handler get it first).
I was instead hoping to capture the SIGINT or SIGTERM event (I'm not yet sure what it is) to prevent it
from shutting down the JVM.

Mx.core.Window - prevent user from closing the window?

Hi,
mx.core.Window has properties 'maximizable' &
'minimizable', but there doesn't seem to be any 'closable'
property. In my application I'm creating another window (apart from
the main application window) that needs to be open the whole time
the application is running. If I can't prevent the user from
closing the window, then I'll have to rig up some code to
automatically re-open it if the user closes it. I'm hoping there's
a way to prevent the user from closing the window in the first
place though.
I'll much appreciate any ideas - thanks :)

Listen for the window's closing event and call
preventDefault().

Please help.. after May Windows Updates no sound from rear speake

Hello!?My rear channels stopped working, I am thinking it might have happened because of the recent windows update. I have Audigy2 ZS Platinum Card and Logitech 5. speakers. Please help, I tried drivers from CD and the one on the website, no luck

I doubt if the recent windows updates has anything to do with your rear speakers. I have all the recent updates and my speakers are working fine. you could go the Add/Remove program and uninstall the updates. Then you would know for sure if that caused the problem.

Prevent PDFs from Changing Adobe Window Size & Position

Some PDF files have embedded codes to change the size and / or position of the Adobe (or Reader) window. This is a very irritating "feature" and is completely unnecessary, at best. I have looked through the various Preferences setting but nothing seems to address the problem. How do I prevent this from happening?
Thanks.

Thanks guys. Is there a way to prevent this action globally, i.e. for all documents, rather than just document-by-document after the fact? Any well-designed software would have a way to prevent documents from messing up my screen configuration, so I assume someone at Adobe had the wherewithall to have that as an option in Acrobat.

Recently purchased HP 850 with Windows 8.1, unable to upgrade to Windows 10

I received my new HP ENVY Phoenix Desktop 850 (850-050qe CTO / M0K54AV#ABA) with Windows 8.1 (shown under Windows Edition). The shipping container states that this desktop is ready for Windows 10 upgrade. However, I do not see the "Get Windows 10" app on the toolbar. I have downloaded all available updates (recommended and optional), but there are two missing (KB2919442, and KB2919355). After reading through numerous articles, it seems that I need to install KB2919442 first before installing KB2919355, but when attempting to install KB2919442, I receive an error message "this update is not applicable to your system". Please advise!

Hello , Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More. I understand that you are not able to install Windows 10 on your computer as the KB2919442 update is not able to install correctly. I would be happy to assist you in this matter! To correct this issue, I recommend following the steps in thsi document on how to Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files. This should help to scan for and repair missing or corrupt system files. I also suggest using the following resource on how to Fix Windows corruption errors by using the DISM or System Update Readiness tool, as well as Troubleshoot problems with installing updates. This should help to correct operating system corrupts preventing Windows updates and service packs from installing correctly. Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

Adobe: AIR bug preventing us from upgrading to AIR 3.x

Adobe, since you released AIR 3.0 there's a bug that causes embedded PDFs to expand beyond the application window's width. The bug is detailed here.
In AIR 3.1 the issue hasn't been fixed, nor does the release notes say it's a "known issue". This concerns me since the bug was logged well before AIR 3.1 was released. I have asked for an update on the ticket but had no response, so currently I don't know whether this issue will be fixed before the AIR 3.2 release.
We cannot use AIR 3.x because it prevents us from reading PDFs and the workaround provided does not work for us. Can anyone tell me what's happening about this issue please?

We are looking at the bug https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3000289 for upcoming release project.
thanks,
Hitomi

Hi,
Generally such kind of issues are caused by third party programs such as CD burning programs, device driver etc.
First please refer to this article to see if there is anything helpful:
Guide for Upgrading to Windows Server 2008 R2
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff972408(v=ws.10).aspx
Meanwhile from the description, it mentioned a file under C:\Windows\winsxs. Check the permission of the folder amd64_microsoft-windows-servicingstack_31bf3856ad364e35_6.0.6002.18005_none_676975d87cc9b6e6 and the file wcp.dll to see if the permission
and ownership are correct compare with the other folders.
Also as it provided 2 minidump files, you will need to use WinDBG to read the minidump files and see if there is any further information.

Installing iTunes updates stops iTunes from working in Windows 8.1

Last year after installing Windows 8.1 I had problems with iTunes ( couldn't burn to disc and could not uninstall after being advised by Apple Support that uninstalling was the solution), after assistance from the Windows community my problem was solved. I installed iTunes 12.1, I believe it was.
Then in early January 2015 I received an update notification and installed it but again started getting error messages and could not run iTunes, error was -
"ITunes.exe - entry Point not found"
The procedure entry point "ADadPolicyEngine_DidEnterStation" Could not be located in the dynamic link library C:\ProgramFiles(x86)\iTunes\iTunes.dll.
Then the message
ITunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes
Error 7 (Windows error 127)
Part of last years solution was the correct procedure to uninstall iTunes (remove all Apple programs) this I followed again and reinstalled iTunes. It again worked correctly until 30.1.15. I opened iTunes and was told there was a newer version available which I installed which it completed ok but then it checked for any other updates and foolishly I installed it and got the error message -
GNSDK_MANAGER_DLL. is missing from your computer reinstall
After clicking ok I get the further message
ITunes was not installed correctly, reinstall
Error 7 (Windows error 126)
Whilst I know how to uninstall and reinstall it is a bit of a pain to have to go through quite a long procedure to correct this problem. As this seems to be an ongoing problem does anyone know a solution ?
I believe the suggested update is the same (12.1) that I install from the iTunes site, so why does it tell me to update I ask .
It would appear that this problem relates to the update from iTunes and not Windows
Obviously not installing updates is an option but not the answer.
Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks.

How come I am not able to prevent Firefox from allowing popup windows even after I enter the website address under Security?

I have been using Firefox on a Mac computer for a number of years and have been happy with it. I have recently gone to a different trading platform called Trademonster.com and am having issues with its operation. When I call Trademonster, they told me that my Firefox must allow pop-up windows to operate. I do notice that when I log on to Trademonster on Firefox, it does say ".. Firefox prevented 2 pop-up windows from opening". I have gone to Preferences and under Security entered trademonster.com as a site to have access but I am still getting the signal that Firefox is preventing popup windows from coming up on the trading platform.
PLEASE HELP.
Thx.
