Windows Virtual PC (VMWindow.exe) does nothing but open a dialog box labeled user "Virtual Machines"
Windows Virtual PC (VMWindow.exe) does nothing but open a dialog box labeled <user> "Virtual Machines"
Running Win 7 Pro 64 bit SP1 on an Asus Z97 Pro socket 1150 mobo, with Intel VT-d both Supported and Enabled in the BIOS.
I am attempting to use Win Virtual PC as one would use VirtualBox or VMware Player.
I thought I stated my case clearly.
Are you proposing that Win Virtual PC functions ONLY to run Win XP in a virtual machine environment?
Bill
No, I just suspect you would like to install XP mode on virtual machine.
Supported guest operating systems in Virtual PC:
•Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) Professional
•Windows Vista Enterprise Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later versions
•Windows Vista Ultimate Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later versions
•Windows Vista Business Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later versions *
• Windows 7 Professional *
•Windows 7 Enterprise.
•Windows 7 Ultimate
• Windows 7 Professional (SP1)*
•Windows 7 Enterprise (SP1)
•Windows 7 Ultimate (SP1)
*Note Virtual applications are not supported on Windows Vista Business or on Windows 7 Professional or on Windows 7 Professional(SP1). All other features of Windows Virtual PC are supported on these two guest systems.

I'm trying to install iTunes64Setup.exe (10.7.0.21) version on my Windows 7 system and nothing happens with I try to run the exe. If I run as admin, I get the UAC dialog andclick ok - and nothing happens after that. When I downloaded the exe, I went to the Properties for the setup file and clicked the Unblock button so to get around some of the other issues that people reported - no luck running. I tried running Microsoft FixIt for installation issues - http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall/ and no luck after that. In all cases, I try to open it - the mouse cursor spins for less than a second - and nothing happens. I don't see any processes running in Task Manager. I've also tried manually starting the Windows Modular Installer and then running setup. I've tried downloading the exe from another computer to see if it was a bad download and both files do the same thing. The size of the downloaded file is 76.7 MB (80,521,624 bytes). I was able to run the same exe from my other computer running Windows 7 64-bit OS.
Help!ok - I setup with a clean boot using msconfig.exe as suggested and disabled all the Microsoft Services and unchecked the Load Startup items, accepted the changes and rebooted. I then tried running the itunes64setup.exe again, and this time - there was a very slight change in behavior - a thin dialog - what looked like a progress indicated displayed on my main display for about .5 sec and then went away - no text in the box. I ran setup again - this time from a USB stick - the little progress indicator stayed up on the screen for about 1.5 sec and I could see a grren bar on the left grow about 1/10th into the progress bar until in disapperared and nothing else happened. What's next?
Thanks,

Sending text to Motion does nothing but open a new file
I'm editing in FCP and created a text object, carefully placing it in exactly the right position. I right click on the text in the timeline and choose "Send to Motion" but all it does is open a new file. Seems to me it should have actually "sent the text" to Motion as it implies. Did they really not include this feature? Otherwise, its pretty darn meaningless.
Now it seems like I have to re-typeset the text, and go back and forth until I get the placement right again. So much for simplified workflows!Your fundamental approach to this is wrong.
Tom has already pointed out that Motion is a graphics and text animation tool (amongst other things).
If your point of reference for positioning text is based on the content of the video track below it -send the video clip to Motion and apply the text there, where you can also apply any number of effects to it. Motion has access to exactly the same typefaces that FCP has and a few more in the form of "LiveFonts".
If you wish to have the animated text as a separate element, you can simply delete the video from the background layer in Motion once the positioning and timing has been established. If it needs to be tweaked or changed completely, simply right click it on the FCP Timeline and choose Open in Editor. This will launch Motion with the text project loaded automatically.
So consider it a suggestion for future versions of FCS. (If these posts filter up to the right people!)
They don't. Apple Discussions participants are all users, just like you. -
Since uploading Maverick, all of my Microsoft apps give an error message "(name of the app) quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again." However, this does nothing but renew this window. I have to click on the "OK" button to get rid of the error message. What to do?
Very Important, how much Free Space is on your Hard Drive first of all? Click on the Macintosh HD on the Desktop, then do a Get Info on it.
Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
Do they launch OK while in Safe Mode? -
i bought a brand new 5th gen ipod touch. im trying to restore from itunes backup. then it says connect to itunes but my hp laptop is not syncing it. when i plug it in it does nothing but say connect to itunes... how do i fix this?
Hey jtom234412,
Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like your device is not detected in iTunes for Windows. The following resource may help resolve this issue:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

Furthermore, if your device is in recovery mode (displaying an iTunes symbol, with a plug), see the relevant information under Step 5.
Thanks,

CS4 Setup.exe does nothing in XP
I've looked through the forums and found one post about this, and I'm sure someone else has posted about it or solved it, but I can't locate it.
I finally got CS4 Design Premium to extract after 2 days of working through it. It extracted with no errors. However, clicking on Setup.exe does nothing. It shows in the task manager, but does nothing. Runing XP home, SP3, as admin.
I found one link about running a javascript.dll. I ran that one line of code and it didn't change anything.
Any ideas?Specs are here

Going to a state sponsored site I see a link (underlined and in blue), but scrolling over it while in Firefox does nothing. Clicking on the link also does nothing.
Changing browsers to IE, I then go to the same site and scrolling over link changes cursor. Clicking on the link opens a new page.
The link's address is an .aspx file.
How can I fix Firefox to view this link.Thanks for the try, but no help.
I tried removing the "style", but it did absolutely nothing.
I did notice something odd.
Going to the state site:
http://ww2.doh.state.fl.us/IRM00PRAES/PRASINDI.ASP?LicId=295&ProfNBR=3101
there is a link "Going to complaint", when I scroll over this it reacts normally and clicking allows me to open a new page, BUT, the page is not in the browser, rather it appears to be a new window floating over the browser. This window has no address, it appears to be a separate document rather then a part of the website. In this window document there is a link, underlined and in blue, under the heading "case number". There is no way to remove style from this window, and clicking in Firefox does nothing, while doing so in IE leads me to a PDF document.
I am a neophyte computer user, but wonder if there is something additional needed so Firefox can handle the .aspx file. -
3000 K100 does nothing but beep
Model #: 57068347
OS: Windows Vista
I went to bed and the computer was working. I wake up the following morning, the screen is blank, and the machine is doing nothing but beeping. I tried cycling the power and still nothing. No POST screen, no response from the keyboard, nothing. Just repeated beeps from the speaker and that's it.
I cruised through the support forums a bit and didn't find much that was useful. Anyone got any ideas?
thanks!epicdave,
What can you tell us about the beeping? Generally with PCs, there will be a series of long and short beeps in some kind of repeating pattern which can indicate what component is causing the trouble.
Can you discern the number of beeps before the pattern repeats?
Failing that, or more generically I would suspect memory, system board, power supply. I'm going to suggest that if you are still in warranty that you contact service. If you are outside of warranty, I'll offer the following things I might try...
1) Memory - remove and reseat the memory. While you have each module out, check the condition of the little gold contacts. If they look dull or have dull spots where the contact is made (you will see the slight rub marks where the socket engages each tiny contact pad on the module) you can gently use a pencil eraser to clean the contacts on the memory - just rub the eraser back and forth a couple times gently and then wipe away any of the eraser material. Re-insert in the sockets and try to power on the PC again.
2) System board - could be any number of componenet failures which would require a board replacement. Depending on the BIOS, the beep codes can sometimes identify which component to confirm the diagnosis. Try removing any expansion cards and power up again.
3) Power supply - less likely as it sounds like it is working to some level since the system is beeping.

my 5th ten iPod is basically doing nothing but trying over and over again to start up. I've tried to restore it, but when the logo apple appears, it simply shut down. Then I've connected it to my macbook pro, and I've seen the script "Please Wait - Very Low Battery", but, after some time, the iPod tries to start up again, and nothing happens. It's a kind of noise, I'm thinking about the hard disk, (it's a 80Gb version), and I'm listening to it; every 30 seconds seems to try to open and then shut down again. I can't see the iPod in iTunes too. Don't know what to do. Can someone help me? Thanks a lot, it's my first forum
It sounds like the battery could be going bad as well as the iPod's Hard drive. You'll want to have the iPod serviced either by Apple or a third party repair company. Here is Apple's pricing:

Google for "iPod repair" and you should get a ton of results to work with.

JCLouis,
We saw your story and are very worried about what we read! This isn't like us at all and we are here to help sort it all out. We recommend calling the Rebate Center to check on the status. Their number is 1-800-457-0864.
We can help you right here with your phone! How often does it turn off? Is it just that the screen goes black or does it completely power down? Also, does it start back up by itself if it does power down?

Wow what a pile of crap you must wade through to ask a question .
Ok so the problem is I did an update on my IPad and now it does nothing but show a graphic showing the power cable connecting to ITunes
So I connect iPad to my IMac and prompt iTunes nothing happens. So I try sinc nothing happens.
So I try restore and the popup says I am not eligible for restore.
What is going on with this stupid machineMachines are incapable of being stupid. Not so of their operators.
Placing your device into recovery (DFU-Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the
other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds
until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
* If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the
Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off,
release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the
device. The device should turn on. Note: If you see the battery charge warning,
let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some
charge, and then start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
When this screen appears you can release the Home button:
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
If you have a problem getting into recovery mode then try: RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode.
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information. -

Windows virtual machine with labview on a Mac
I am about to buy a Mac laptop with virtualization software (either VMware or Parallels), then create a Windows 7 virtual machine and put Labview for Windows Professional on it.
I searched the board and found some discussion of this configuration but it is several years old.
I would just like to hear from people who have done this and learn from their experiences. Are there any pitfalls, features that don't work, performance problems, setup difficulties, whatever. Also, do you prefer VMware or Parallels.
One other thing: I would like to create at least four virtual machines (Windows with Labview development, Windows without LV to test the applications in a non-labview environment, and similar for MacOS}. Is this a reasonable thing to do?
Regards,
DavidHi David,
As indicated above I have been running a windows virtual machine using VMware on a 17 inch macbook pro for quite a while now. I have not experienced significant problems. Labview and labview generated apps work fine in the virtual environment.
But would I do it again? I think not. The economics don't work. You can buy a quite capable Windows laptop for less than $500. The virtual machine alternative costs $200 for a copy of Windows, $80 for virtualization software (Parallels or VMware) plus extra memory on the Mac (I have 8 gb) plus a more powerful machine, etc. I ended up paying over $3,000 for the Mac hardware and extra software. The alternative would have been $1,500 for a 15 inch Mac plus $500 for a Windows laptop.
Also, there is definitely a performance penalty. Virtualization is not free. Start up and shutdown times for Windows are more than twice as long under VMware than with a cheap HP laptop.
It is nice having all my files (Mac and Windows) on the same machine but I could have easily networked the Mac and Windows and had effectively the same result. Expected benefits, such as a single backup disk for both operating systems didn't work out. Apple's time machine software views the entire Windows environment as a single lump, so I am still stuck with two backup drives.
So the good news is that it works. The bad news is that the costs (in my opinion) exceed the benefits.

Can't install my printer on Windows virtual machine using Leopard OS
Have just installed Leopard and Parrallels software. I cannot install my HP C3180 printer on the virtual windows machine. USB plug and unplug are not recognized and suspect it is because the printer is in use on the Mac OS side. How can I get the same printer to be connected and usable in both MAC and Windows virtual machines?
I had exactly the same issue as you when I wanted to print from my iMac to a printer that was attached to a Windows 7 machine.
I found the solution at an Apple Support page, located at "http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3049".
What really solved my problem was the introduction of the user PASSWORD in the address line, like this:
smb://user:password@workgroup/server/sharename
Read the Apple Support page I mentioned carefully to better understand what you will be doing.
I hope this helps you.
