How in blazings did you install Vista on your MBP?
Did you use BootCamp? Paralells? Something else? I
heard that it cannot be installed with any of these...
I used bootCamp, but I had a problem after full installation
( windows vista was complaining about a missing file), then I read in some post that if I deleted the 200 MB partion (that shows up at the begining of the vista istallation) I would be able to dual boot, so I did that. Then after booting a second time and using the recovery option on windows vista. It worked.There is a downside to doing that though( boot camp won't be able to make your hard drive one partion any more).If you want to make your hard drive one partion you would have to use the disk utility and reinstall tiger( may be there is some other solution. Don't know)
Some of the Mac drivers that I burnt using boot camp worked but not all of them, but over all I had no problems after installation ( wireless worked from the first time)
I still don't have the eject button working yet( but I don't really need it)

Windows Vista can't find Firefox.exe on my hard drive, but it is there. How can I get Firefox to run?

Windows Vista can't find the Firefox.exe program on my machine but it is right there in program files. Windows won't run it. After clicking on the short cut icon and after a delay I get an error message saying that windows can't find it. What can I do to fix this problem?

Hey merodi,
I dont fully understand your problem here,
1. Did your computer shut down or 'die' or did you save and then you cant find it?
2. Have you tried looking in spotlight (little magnifying glass up the corner)
3. Have you tried opening the program again? In word and pages, if the program exited forcefully, opening it again will restore the document.

Trouble with Audio Console "Unable to find Audio device.

I have an Audigy 2 ZS Platinum and run XP Pro. Recently lost my install CD when moving back to school (crap...)
I was able to download and install the drivers for the card from creative. Windows Hardware manager says the device is working properly (more accurately the many devices associated with the sound card) and I know the device is functioning (at least in part) because I am able to play music through the digital optical out on the dri've bay panel.
At this point I am trying to install Audio Console.
I have downloaded and installed Audio Console from creative's website and then restarted my computer. Upon trying to launch the program the following message appears in a pop up:
"Unable to find Audio device. Please make sure that your audio device is enabled and installed with it's driver. This application will be closed."
I have checked 'Sounds and Audio Devices' in the control panel and it has "SB Audigy 2 ZS Audio [B400]" for all selected audio devices.
What's the problem here? Has anyone encountered this problem before?
The Audigy 2 ZS Platinum is listed as compatible with the Audio Console software.
Thanks for any help you can offer!

Audio Console: Unable to find Audio device

I'm running Vista 32-bit with SP with an Audigy Gamer. I've been running the same drivers since March, but somewhere down the road Creative Audio Console refused to run anymore when it previously worked fine. I get the following error:? "Unable to find Audio device. Please make sure that your audio device is enabled and installed with it's driver. This application will be closed."? The sound card works perfectly otherwise, just unable to run the audio console.
So I uninstalled the drivers, and installed the latest release. Same thing. Audio console throws the same error. Any ideas? This is incredibly annoying.

Sorry - right, Audigy then.
When you uninstalled and reinstalled - did you uninstall the Creative Audio Console? Some driver packages have it as separate program?in the Add/Remove programs list.
Did you happen to notice any other upgrades or new software since the Audio Console stopped loading for you? Like a windows update or anti-virus program update?
Oh, and there is a [url="http://support.creative.com/Products/ProductDetails.aspx?catID=&subCatID=205&prodID=237 &prodName=Audigy%20Gamer&subCatName=Audigy&CatName =Sound+Blaster">new Audigy driver package for you to try[/url]... wouldn't hurt.

Windows 7 can´t find the driver for HP Officejet 5510. (Windows Update is set to automatic.)

Hello everyone, I just installed Windows 7 - 64 bit. Supposedly the driver for the HP Officejet 5510 will install automatically in Windows 7 when connected via a USB, which is not happening.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01796879&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&os=4063&product=311...
I am getting the message that Windows 7 can't find the driver. I don´t understand why?
My Windows Update is set to automatic.
I see the device under printers. But when I click on it it says driver missing.
Is there any solution? Possibility to get the driver some other way? Unfortunately HP doesn't provide a download on their website.
Can anyone help me, pleease?
Honza

I have the same problem. I spent all this money to get more features, not less so Windows 7 should run all of my XP stuff. Now I see that my HP Officejet 5510 all-in-one won't scan and I can't save in pdf format. C'mon HP....give us a driver! If I wind up having to buy another printer, I swear it won't be an HP if I get abandoned on this one. And I'll also switch vendors for all of the printers I'm responsible for replacing at work too.

When Audio Console launched, Unable to find audio device error message comes

When I launch audio console, I get an error message saying:
"Unable to find audio device. Please make sure that your audio device is enabled and installed with its driver. This application will be closed."
This can't be right because my soundblaster audigy 2 ZS platinum card is installed, its working, I can hear things etc.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the audio console software package from creative and that fixed the problem for a very short while and it is now reoccurring.
I've had this same setup for several years with no issues, now all of a sudden, this is happening.
Anyone out there had similar challenges?
Thanks for looking!Message Edited by dgmtoronto on 07-22-200703:33 PM

Most probably you don't have passed the correct root= option to the kernel so that the kernel cannot, as it says, find its root device. Read the wiki page about refind in order to know how to configure it (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/REFInd). Refind as no fully automatic configuration like grub.

Problems after virus disinfection, when I plug in my iPod, it asks if I want to scan and fix, but then it can't find the device

Problems after virus disinfection, when I plug in my iPod, it asks if I want to scan and fix, but then it can't find the device. What should I try?

I used Avast and Malwarebytes. The computer was severly infected with the FBI virus. I had to do a repair reinstall of Windows 7. The client is upset about her iPod, which at this point is the only thing still having a problem. I'm not familiar with Apple products, but I told her I would research it.

PS. The OS I am not sure do not remember exactly.

- Reboot the computer
- Try another USB port
- Try another cable try another cable
- Inspect the dock connector for bend or missing contacts, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Protools 8 compatiblity with Windows Vista and which proper audio interface?

O K i have a compaq presario pc notebook with a cpu of 2.16 ghz and 160 gb(?) hard drive with 32 bit w/ Window Vista service pack 1. I've done a little research and it seems my computer may be compatible but i'm not sure Is ne one using pt 8 with windows vista with no problems? also i'm not so sure about which audio interface i should be using psi, firewire,or usb even though i have 2 usb ports im hearing its not the best choice dealing with latency and all. Is ne one using pt 8 with window vista using a usb audio interface or even firewire with any problems? thanx hope to hear from you soon!!!!

Hi again chamille2010,
Well my take would be that your rig would run Pro Tools 8 but you might struggle with the latency a bit. I ran Pro Tools LE on a PC (with significantly lower specs than yours since it was 3 years old at the time) with a Digi 002 as my firewire interface and I did have issues with latency, which is my biggest pet peeve. That was also on the XP Operating System so you might be better off with Vista SP1. I would recommend going with the Digi 003 via firewire and maxing out your RAM for best results. USB would definitely be slower and might be a cause for latency if you run into it.
That's my opinion. Digidesign has a pretty in-depth site for making sure your system will run Pro Tools. I'm sure you've already checked it out but just in case:

TS1538 In iTunes 11 I can't find a device list nor my ipod to the left of music library screen, where is the device list situated?

After installing update to iTunes 11, I can not find the devices list nor my ipod on the left side of the music library screen. I also can't find the devices button. Devices is an option under 'File' but it only allows 'transfer purchases to ipod'. Where is the device list located in iTunes 11?

I`m having exactly the same problem!! Updated Friday to the new Itunes 11, which i have to say looks cool but isn`t overly user friendly, and my Iphone 5 is not being recognised. Ran diagnostic tests and i`m getting a red dot next to iphone, ipod etc stating not connected even though it was! I`ve spent all weekend trying to fix the problem and have gone through clearing the temp folder and the device manager, uninstalling and reinstalling itunes but nothing!

My iPad won't turn on. It has a usb cord picture with an up arrow pointing to iTunes logo. I can't find my device in iTunes.

I can't get my iPad to turn on. I have done everything the internet said, other than looking device up in iTunes, because I can't find my device in iTunes. What can I do? It is stuck with a usb cord picture with an up arrow pointing to iTunes logo.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Error "Can't find boot device by boot options" when boot from ISO via AMT

Hello.
When I try to boot from ISO CD via AMT I got an error message:
"Can't find boot device by boot options"
Settings are similar to what I made in HP 8100, 8200 etc - SOL/IDER/KVM, network access enabled
Where could be a problem?
Prod. name: HP Compaq Elite 8300 Microtower PC
Prod. number: B0F41EA

Just wanted to follow up with this as I got a response from HP. It looks like it is at least the 2.9 BIOS version that has this issue. I know that at least the 2.51 BIOS version is unaffected.
