To copy the download to your computer for installation at a later time, click Save or Save this program to disk. When running the self-extracting. Browse to, or type, your desired location and select OK. Open the GadgetSamples. I was prompted to restart. When I clicked restart - I heard a ding??? When I came up, the gadget is now stuck in spin mode again.
There must be something with the update that is screwing things up. There must be something with a setting or something else running on my machine.
If I figure it out, I'll write back. I have posted the same earlier. I scheudled it to start up 5 minutes after I boot and still nothing. I was really hopeful since I saw that others had success with this approach.. I installed norton internet security my gadget bar and my cable connection were lost Iam also looking for a answer, I have not had a problem before whon installing norton , so is the problem with this version?
How to check quickly what are your settings? If you attempt to install any software and "Windows needs your permission to continue" pop-up message appears, your UAC settings are on. At the moment Symantec agreed, it is a bug with NIS sidebar. Technical support team was convincing me two months ago to expect an update with fix in a week time. I still have days subscription remaining.
Hope, they manage to come up with a proper bug fix till then : There are two options at this stage: remove your NIS sidebar gadget and leave UAC on, or turn off UAC and enjoy the gadget. Even if the gadget is not working properly with UAC on, it doesn't mean you are not proptected, or your NIS is turned off.
You are still safe. NIS is one of the best products on the market. For many years of gained experience Symantec managed to tune up this product practically to perfection. I would advise to leave your UAC on, if it was on before and jsut simply wait for a fix. In this case, the fix might be developed faster.
As I mentioned previously, I've seen the "Cannot connect to service" message a number of times before, but it always comes back around at some point. Luckily the Weather gadget isn't a very critical application. The currency app is also displaying the "cannot connect to service" problem. I've re-asked Microsoft and the date of the fix cannot be given. I have turned off the weather gadget cause I hate seeing the "cannot connect to service" message only the CPU gadget is showing.
Also, I have closed and re-opened the gadget so it "lost" my town and I have to set it again once the service is running. Like others I'm not getting updated on weather or on currency which today show updated 2 days ago and Weather can't find my location if I ask it to change. Could you please go to the message marked Solved and cancel that flag on it -- you as the original poster can do this but if not let me know and I can get it done.
I marked it as solve because the "solution" is that Microsoft is "fixing it. So anybody who visits this thread will know that this is a known problem. I have been searching for a solution to this problem all day yesterday. Finally stumbled on to your original post. I have the same exact problem you described on 3 computers here. I guess just hurry up and wait? Your choice Well it was working until a few days ago before it went kaput.
Microsoft themselves say they're working on it, but ETA is unknown. I certianly hope they do fix it since I do make use of the exhange rate one since my pensions come in from overseas. Luckily the BBC website is good if anyone needs that -- you can select which pair of currencies you want to show up in the graphic version. Yes, my weather and currency gadgets also stopped a few days ago, and yet my laptop is still working ok. Very wierd as both my main PC and the laptop are running W7 Ultimate 64 bit versions.
I too, get my pension from overseas and like to keep track of exchange rates. Very frustrating.
