Windows Vista and Winhelp
Hi,
Yesterday a client contacted us saying that our online help
doesn't work with Windows Vista [
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917607/en-us
]. For the moment, we don't support Windows Vista yet, but a
developer and I have been working on a solution. I've converted the
winhelp into a html help with Robohelp HTML X.05 and I seem to have
the same problem as so many people. The Map IDs aren't linked
anymore to the topics. The file I included in the project is
helpresourceB.h and looks like this:
#define IDD_EVASELECTION 91
#define IDD_RUNSETUPDLG 92
#define IDD_CHECKCONNECTIONS 93
#define IDD_LICENSE 94
#define IDD_CHANGESERVER 95
#define IDD_EXECDLG 96
#define IDD_CENTWAR 97
#define IDD_LOGINDLG 98
#define IDD_TELNETVIEW 99
#define IDD_ABOUTBOX 100
#define IDD_SYSOPTIONS 430
#define IDD_CHANGEPASSW 449
#define HCUS_CONTENTS 39999
#define HCUS_LANDCODE 40000
#define HCUS_CLIENTSOORT 40001
#define HCUS_CLIENTCATEGORY 40002
#define HCUS_NO_TOPIC 40003
#define HCUS_CREDITEUR 40005
Is there really no way to maintain the links while converting
the project? I have almost 1200 map IDs I have to assign and it
would be fantastic if I didn't have to do that manually.
Since you are converting from WinHelp, there are some
differences you need to be aware of. As Colum said - don't forget
the alias file. What is an "alias file?" you may ask. In WinHelp
'aliases' were used to asign a different map number to the same
topic. In HTMLHelp, they are a totally different species.
One of the design ideas of HTMLHelp was that the developer
and help author would work independently on conrtext sensitive
help. The .h file you have shown is supposed to be the developer's
end. Note that it does not contain any references to your topics -
just map numbers and somewhat cryptic IDs. The alias file is the
help author's end and it links these IDs to your topic file names
with the syntax IDD_EVASELECTION=YourTopicName.htm#bookmark. All of
these live in an alias file (projectname.ali). These two files
together comprise your context sensitive help.
Hope this helps,
John

I use Windows Vista and Microsoft Outlook. After migrating to iCloud, the calendar of iCloud tranferred only part of my past Calendar items to the folder iCloud Calendar in my Outlook. How can I transfer all the entries? In iCloud's site all are there.
If the calendar is on iCoud.com, all you would need to do to get it on your phone is go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, sign into your iCoud account and turn Calendars on. The iCloud calendars will then download to your phone.

Hi to everyone,
I'm new to Windows Vista and I tried to transfer music to my mobile phone. I was told that I couldn't synchronise with my phone cos outlook hadn't been installed correctly. Am I being a plank?I don't think that we can synchronize music with Outlook or Windows Mail (Vista). So far, we can synchronize music with Windows Media Player or other players that support for it.
What is your phone model? At least, there should be a Vista compatible software for your phone to be used in PC. Check your phone's website.
I sync my phone with Windows Mail because the updated software support for it (Vista). I can see Windows Mail (Contacts) in the updated software. -
Windows Vista and Airport Express
I can connect my Airport Express to my wireless router via an ethernet cable and get up the configuration page - easy!
Now for the difficult bit!
I cannot get Airport Admin Utility to recognise the Airport Express (base station in Apple Speak!) when I disconnect from the router.
Airport Express really sounds a great way to connect ITUNES to remote speakers etc but it is necessary to get it working with Windows Vista and get the wireless function working.Anybody sucessfully done it? Please only respond if you have managed to do this personally!William - I am in a similar place.... I have an airport express running as an extension to my home wireless network. I have a TC that I use as my router. My macs can connect to my network (of course) but the windows vista laptop (sony vaio) does not...... HELP! Have you been able to get any answers??

Windows Vista and iTunes downloads
I have a new computer with Windows Vista and downloaded iTunes on it. My previous music iTunes library works fine, but when I try to play a recently downloaded song, I get a message that I am not authorized to play it on this computer. What does that mean? I already tried reinstalling everything and it did not help. Any other ideas?
Thanks!I suggest you post your message in the "iTunes for Windows" forum found at <http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=150>. It's a more appropriate place to find answers to your question.
Good luck! bill

Seen some interesting behavior with Windows Vista and FME.
When watching the connection status of a live broadcast I get lots
of empty full buffer dumps.
#NSManager# (doLiveOnStatus:NetStream.Buffer.Full)
#NSManager# (doLiveOnStatus:NetStream.Buffer.Empty)
I have seen this happen when using the On2 Flix encoder with
2.0.479 but not typically with FME. The only different variable is
Vista and the client is running it on his laptop.Thanks for the reply. I actually got first hand use with it
on the clients machine. The problem is that FME gets cranky when
you drop packets and the client is using a wireless card to
transmit the data.

Windows Vista and Windows 7 Only Boots to a black screen with a mouse cursor
Windows Vista and Windows 7 Only Boots to a black screen with a mouse cursor after I installed Mcafee Internet Security.
Hi I installed 1of 3 McAfee Internet Security protections on my HP laptop a few weeks ago with no issues. I Have a Dell XPS 420 desk top with Windows Vista operating
system, it’s never had any issues, until 2 nights ago I installed McAfee Internet Security (detected incompatible files and will remove) pc now only boots up to a black screen with a mouse cursor, it will show the windows logo and a hash symbol floating around
the screen. Now 2 weeks ago I installed the same program on my Dell all in one desk top with Windows 7, the same issue happen but that pc has no screen activity, I tried a back to factory reboot on this one, still black screen.Hi,
Please install the compatible version of McAfee Internet Security:

if you have startup issue, you can boot into Safe Mode to uninstall the problematic software to go back into Windows.

I'm trying to install iTunes 10.3 on my PC (windows vista) and I keep getting this message, "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor." I accidentally removed the Bonjour service from my system a few weeks ago, but my iTunes continued to work. Now I have no iTunes and I don't know how to fix it. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!
a colleague of mine suffers from the same problem. did a quick look on the apple support pages. found many topics covering the same problem.
also saw 1 marked as correct answer... (just browse the discussion pages before you ask, this answer appearantly was sitting there from oct. 14...)
(i'm not on windows, so i can't test...)
good luck!

Hi Rick,
by "repair" I mean I went to the control panel, option - programs and features, and in the list of all my installed programs I selected "Apple Software Update". On top of the screen you find the options Uinstall, Change and Repair. I clicked the repair button and that did the trick. After the repair I could uninstall the program. I also uninstalled iTunes, Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support en Bonjour, thus all Apple programs. Then I installed iTunes 10.5 again and everything went fine.
Success,

I have a desk top which has Windows Vista. On this computer I have been running Itunes for a long time. My new computer is a Lap top and it runs Windows 7.
I recently loaded Itune on the new computer. I attemted to use Easy Transfer to transfer my Music but was unable to connected the two computers so I transferred my music to a external hard drive and loaded the music on the new computer. I have the folders and files carefully and they appear to match. When I try to run Itunes on the new computer I am unable to access the new music. Itune always goes to the sample music. The only difference I can come up with is Windows Vista and Windows 7. Does anyone have any suggestions?Hi,
Are you trying to use the Help -> Updates method?
