Unable To Update Or Download Anything Or Use Email
Nov 24, 2012

This Microsoft update repeatedly fails on my automatic updates. I try to do it manually, still no luck.: Security Update for Microsoft Works 9 (KB2754670)
Windows update could not search for downloads. Encountered error code 80070005. Norton 2012 security installed. Tried there support for help and they said it was not a problem from Norton.
I recently bought an Acer Revo AL100 and it was able to play all of the BluRay discs that I asked it to. I borrowed a copy from a mate and the Revo is able to detect that there is a disc in the drive, it chugs away for a couple of minutes and then I get a message that it was unable to download a BD-Live Update. Once I get this message the disc stops spinning and I don't get to watch my movie.
I get more or less the same results using the clear.fi application that came pre-installed, WinDVD Pro 11, PowerDVD 12 and Total Media Theatre 5 so I'm thinking that it's an issue with the hardware. The drive is a MATSHITA BD-CMB UJ141AL and I've been unable to find firmware updates for it anywhere. Is there anything else I can try short of trying to swap the drive for a different?
A while back, after successfully downloading and installing some updates in the Windows Update, it prompted me to restart the computer to finish the update installation process. However, I continued to use the computer for quite some time before restarting it, and then when it tried to configure the updates on the start-up screen, it showed that it was not successful in doing so. In the past, I noticed that this would typically happen when I did not restart the computer immediately (or within a short time) after the updates finished and I got the prompt to restart. I would have to go to Windows Update and do it over again, and then upon immediate restart, it would always work properly. But this time, it did not, and I keep getting the 8000FFFF error message instead.
Also, now, every time I start the computer, it shows that it's "Preparing to configure Windows... Do not shut off computer" (presumably the updates that never got completely and correctly configured) in the start-up screen... gets to 35%..fails... shuts down (screen goes black)... restarts again... tries to configure again, fails again, shuts down and restarts again... tries to configure again, fails again, and finally it apparently gives up and says "reverting changes" and finally goes to the desktop.I've looked at the answers in several threads at the answers.microsoft.com forum that were started by people with similar problems, and also tried several of the Microsoft "FixIt" files on the Microsoft site, but none of them worked. I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium.
If I install the update, I lose my complete e-mail address/contact list. If I don't install the update I can't open my Live Mail at all. I miss Outlook Express SO much! I'm a senior and I don't need Live Essentials bells and whistles.
I use iTunes because I have an ipod touch, iTunes wants me to update it before i will sync my ipod touch. It won't update it tells me to download only the update threw the software, I've done a google search and no one that posted a fix had one that worked, i've have this issue before and i tried to uninstall and reinstall itune and nothing worked.
I'm running W7 on my generic laptop at home, and without any changes instigated by myself, have the following situation appearing:When I click on a link in an email, the following message appears;'This operation has been canceled due to a restriction in effect on this computer.

My laptop uses Windows 7 Professional, it is my work computer. It connects through a proxy server while at work. Would this effect my ability to connect to my home network? I am connected to the router, but I can't get to the internet.

Installed Windows 7 Service Pack 1 yesterday. Today, Windows Live Mail is asking for my username and password for my Comcast mail account. The name & password provided are correct.

I can send links going to : "Page" > " Send link by email", but they are set in plain text and cannot be clicked by the receivor of the email to bring up the desred page.If I copy and paste the link on a new Windows Live Mail message it works just fine - the link is clickable.How can I get it to work the way it always has with outlook express and windows xp with ie8. and be able to send a hyper link from ie 9 without having to copy and paste it?
I still cant get the email links on a web page and email link in IE 8's toolbar to work. I did the work around for windows mail and got it working in Windows 7 but these last 2 fixes are eluding me at the moment, any ideas?
I upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 11/13/10. Since then, I've not been able to create an association for e-mail. I use Gmail. I've tried every so called solution I can find through every forum, to no avail. Would I be safe to restore my email association by clicking on the previous versions in the email properties backup from the 11/13/10 upgrade>
