XE installation problem due to broken old XE services in Windows

My windows XP Home edition has old broken XE services - 5 in number. Corresponding data files and uninstaller on disk are absent. Windows program removal does not give me an option. Have tried practically all normal options in windows to remove these, without success. As a result, cant install XE as it says remove the previous entries first. Pl help in removing the broken XE services, or some alternative for installing.
Thanks.

You can remove the the service by deleting the registry keys.
But before you change anything from the registry take a back up "Export" of that key
The services are found under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ServicesDelete the XE service and you'll be able to do a fresh Install.
Take a backup before you delete anything.
Regards,
Tony

Warning about bizarre eMac Tiger installation problem due to memory

I'm a fairly proficient user. I've upgraded the OS on my 800MHz eMac (original version with NVIDIA GeForce2 MX graphics) many times. This time, while upgrading to Tiger, I blew almost an entire weekend trouble-shooting the machine. I'm posting this so others on the forum can hopefully save themselves some time.
My machine came from the factory with 256MB RAM and a Superdrive. I had the AppleStore add another 256MB of RAM when I bought the machine in Nov 2002. This was Apple-branded RAM, not third-party.
When I tried to upgrade to Tiger, the installation would proceed through all the DVD media and system hard-drive tests, then succesfully install one or more packages. It would then fail with the "Please try to install again" message. The installation log was showing messages about file corruption. I was able to re-install Panther from CD, which eliminated optical drive failure from the list of possible problems.
I ran all of the hard-drive checks in Drive Genius and my drive passed. I ran all of the Apple Hardware Tests from my original system CD. Then I found some warnings on the Apple site about marginal third-party RAM causing this kind of problem. I first rejected this line of approach, since I had Apple RAM.
Eventually I ran out of "normal" trouble-shooting, so I decided to pull the extra memory module as a last resort prior to replacing the hard drive. Once I did this, the installation ran flawlessly using the original 256MB of RAM.
The message here is that EMAC MEMORY PLAYS A MAJOR ROLE IN EITHER DVD I/O OR TIGER-SPECIFIC INSTALLATION. Check your memory before cracking open the rest of the machine, even if all the Apple hardware tests say the memory is OK.
I have new memory on the way from OWC and will follow-up with status when I get some runtime on it.
As an aside, I upgraded to Tiger from Panther mainly to get the increased parental controls (this machine is destined for my kids). Now that I have Tiger, I am pleasantly impressed by the other refinements as well.
E-Mac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

The RAM test on the Apple Hardware Test disc is a compromise between being throrough and completing in a reasonable amount of time. Memtest (especially if run in single-user mode as per it's instructions) offers a more throrough test.

Installation problem due to certificate in Mac 10.8.5

I have created a Self Signed Digital Certificate using Adobe Flash Builder, created an app say myapp.air and tried to install in the Mac 10.8.5. I am getting the below error.
I have created Self signed digital certificate as follows.
I also tried installing with latest Adobe AIR runtime.(version 14). Please help on solving this issue.

You have done a great job supplying what we need to know, so think we can help you.
run applications/utilities/disk utility/repair preferences on your drive with mac os
delete users/(USERNAME)/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.mediabrowser.plist - especially if over 1mb
move to desktop users/(USERNAME)/Library/Preferences/Adobe Illustrator CS6 Settings
create a new user account
You can try all 4 at once, or one at a time (up to you, sounds like you know what you are doing), that is the order I recomend to least disrupt your current install

It maybe a registry or administrator issue.
Please install VS with administrator.
What's more, it maybe a corrupt registry issue. And you can't install any version of Visual Studio, I think you can use the tool to fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled. It also can fix the corrupted registry keys.

Installation problem with HP Officejet Pro Plus 8600 with Windows 8.1

My system recently updated to Windows 8.1 and my HP Officejet Pro Plus 8600 will no longer function with my computers (Dell desktop, Hp laptop). It shows up in control panel, but says the driver is unavailable. I have tried to download the compatible updated driver from the HP site numerous times, but the install always fails. The error message says "failed to add port monitor HP Discovery Port Monitor (HP Officejet Pro 8600). The machines were running Windows 8 before the update and the printer/scanner/copy/fax functions worked fine with the computers. The printer is still recognized in my wireless network and prints from my phone and iPad. I've used the HP uninstall wizard, but there is no program listed for HP 8600 to uninstall. Help!

Various Installation Problems with Portege R100 and Windows XP

Hello,
i recently purchased a used Portege R100. It came without OS and i wanted to install XP SP2.
I know that restores only work with suited PCMCIA drives, but the HDD is formatted, so there is no recovery possible i guess.
Here are my problems:
- with my very old Freecom PCMCIA CD-Drive the Windows Setup CD is recognized and it starts loading XP drivers until it wants to start Copying the installiation files --> then I get the Windows Bluescreen with the 00x7 error (virus or driver)
- the same happens with my old W2k Pro installation disk.
- With the even older W98SE strange things occur too: The installation seems to work properly, but when it comes to boot with W98SE for the first time the systems hangs up with pixelgarbage.
- Making the 6 Bootdisks with makeboot did not work either.
- I also tried MS-DOS! And guess what! That worked! Loading the Freecom drivers and copying the Windows I386 folder to my hdd with volkov commander (something similar to NortonCommander) worked too! So i had hav the files on my disk but after running winnt in the i386 folder, the system hangs after a while, when it starts to copy files to a temporary folder.
So i nearly tried everything i know. right now i am downloading knoppix to try that.
I have run Memtest86 and the Diskmanager 9 to test RAM and HDD, both finished withut errors, so the main parts involed in the setup process seem to work. May it be that my IDE controller is broken?
I have no idea, WHY windows won't install!
Help is warmly welcome!!
Thanks,
Christian
Does

Hello
i fixed the problem:
The method of installing the i386 files to the DOS Disk and running winnt works. I was to impatient. Windows setup starts copying the files to a temporary folder. Nromally you see the info bottom right, waht files are copied at the moment. This is a good indicator that the system is still working.
My setup does not show waht files are copied to the temporary folder. But it still works. HDD is spinning all the time. Due to the "non-Sound" of the R100 i was sure it hung up. But it simly did not. After lets say 20 minutes, the setup process went on as usual....
Now i have XP in the R100 and all teh drivers installed. What a wonderfull notebook, really!
Thanks for the hints anyway...

CS3 Master collection installation problem on Windows 7 64 bit

Hi Guys
Please can you advise
I am encountering problems with the installation of CS3 Master Collection on Windows 7 64 bit, initially my hard drive crashed and performed a dump.
Subsequent attempts to install CS 3 has resulted in failure to install 12 components, essentially the individual software products including photoshop, encore, illustrator etc.
I have re-performed the installation several times with the same installation error.
I believe CS3 to be compatible with Windows 7 64 bit
Any thoughts, guidance on how to rectify the problem and achieve successful installation.
I do have Adobe Reader X and Flash player X already installed. I assume these should not cause an issue with the CS3 installation
Thxs in anticipation

Na, you have it all backwards. CS3 is neithe officially tested nor endorsed, certified or supported on W7. Many users still use it succsfully, but there ae no guarantees whatsoever. Furthermore using Acrobat X ma exactly be the problem due to certain PDF components being shared acoss apps and newer versions not being compatible with the old installer. Therefore removing those parts and reinstlling them later is advisable. Beyond hee's a procedure that should work:
- use the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool
- install CS3
- uninstall CS3 via the Add or Remove Programs system control panel
- install CS3 again
This convoluted procedure is necessary due to bugs in the installer which otherwise prevent things from working.

Help: NWDI 7.2 CBS build problem - initialize compartment-broken DCs

Hi all.
I am facing a problem with CBS build due to broken DCs - invalid dependencies. I have read all the articles and notse related to this issue, but cannot not solve is. Has anyone faced this issue or know a solution?
The problem:
In one SC I have a DC A, which used to have public part PP_A.
In another SC I have a DC B, which used to depend on public part PP_A of DC A.
As part of implementation, the PP_A in DC A was deleted and replaced by new public parts. The changes are checked in and activated in NWDI successfully.
Next, the DC B was corrected, its reference to PP_A was deleted and replaced with appropriate replacements.
I checked in the activity correcting the DC B. Activation fails, because CBS complains that DC B has invalid dependency. I assume that the CBS cache still holds the old sources.
I took the compartment where DC B is located and triggered a CBS Reinitialize compartment (which should discard the cached sources and load a fresh copy). The CBS Reinitialize compartment request fails too! The log shows the same message as the build log: invalid dependency.
It seems that during reinitialize, CBS checks the validity of the DCs in the compartment BEFORE it does clean its cache and refreshes from DTR.
In DTR, I can see the sources of DC A and DC B checked in correctly in the inactive branch, the .dcdef in DC B contains correct references to new public parts of DC A.
Does anyone know how to force CBS to refresh its sources from DTR where correct sources are checked in?
Thanks.
Edited by: Rastislav Cesnek on Dec 20, 2011 3:25 PM

Right.
Its not the CONS, it's the active from DEV which is used. I sort of don't understand the NWDI concept then, maybe SAP could learn a little from Hudson, CruiseControl you name it.
Apparently, as I found out after some trial and error, the checks done before the build AND before the initialize compartment run on sources from ACTIVE branch. So the check-ed in fixed sources of the DC B are ignored by CBS. It then complains about the invalid dependencies all the time.
Finally, although it looks very scary, I activated the soure code changes of the dependent components (I hade a lot of them, not just one) with the "Activate even if the build fails". Then the initialize compartment did not complain about BROKEN components because of dependencies, because the check of metadata succeeded and the components were rebuilt.
Thanks for hints.

Looking at the event viewer Windows Logs/Application log, a registry key cannot be accessed during the install of 16.x . If I am able to set permissions on that key another registry cannot be accessed which halts the installation. I have been through several keys already and it just continues, another registry key cannot be accessed. "Unable to display current owner" and Access Denied when you try to set the owner. Is this a problem caused by Microsoft or Adobe? This is occurring running either under administrator or an account in the administrator's group.

IWork apps no longer sync with iCloud. I am on iOS 5.1,1, and this problem is several days old, before it was working fine. Anyone has an idea?

iWork apps no longer sync with iCloud. I am on iOS 5.1,1, and this problem is several days old, before it was working fine. Anyone has an idea?

Sadly this is not a new problem and I would not expect a forthcoming solution. I bought an iPad 3G and the iWork suite at the end of August and iCloud syncing worked fine. About the time Apple rolled out iOS 6 the syncing stopped working for me (without me upgrading or changing anything). It has never really worked since. Run iOS 5.1.1 on both the iPhone 4 and iPad 3G. The "geniuses" claim that Apples iOS 5 requirement is not correct and that I MUST upgrade both to ios 6 (although I know for fact that lots of folks STILL have the iCloud probs even with its 6. The last genius basically shrugged and non-verbally acknowledged the iCloud/iWork failing and suggested "just use Dropbox.". So why the **** did we pay for iWork!?!?!
Basically the iwork/iCloud Connnection is broken and I have yet to get a viable solution to repair the issue. Sorry for the bad news. For reference I have uninstalled/installed each iteration of iWork upgrades on each device without success. I have reset all settings multiple times, turned iCloud off/on repeatedly etc etc without success. I even wiped the iPad and restored from iCloud w/o intention (another Apple IPad "glitch" when I tried the "reset all settings" and the iPad decided to "erase all" instead. The genius said "it happens.")
Oddly, the Pages app is the only one that has marginally worked at times since the first probs. However it is basically broken and non-functioning. Certainly DO NOT trust vital documents to iCloud/iWork. I lost a number of work critical docs in this whole annoying, messy process of trying to get what Apple promised as easy....

Hi,
How did you upgrade Windows 8 to Windows 8.1? Through Windows Store? To resolve this problem. Firstly, please check and install all Windows update, and upgrade hardware driver to be latest. After that, please try to create a new user account and upgrade
system again.
If problem persists, please access to the path below to check Windows installation log:
setupact.log and setuperr.log in c:\windows.~BT\Sources\Panther. If this folder not exit, please check setupact log in C:\Windows\Panther. You may find the reason for this problem. You also can provide these log to us, we can help you analyze these log together.
