Want to change the Windows Update settings on your Windows Server 2003 but the options are greyed out? You can change them in the registry.
Go to Start> Run> regedit
Go to HKLM> Software> Policies> Microsoft> Windows> WindowsUpdate> AU
To turn off Windows Updates completely, change NoAutoUpdate to 1.
To select one of the other 3 options change AUOptions to either 2, 3 or 4 (Notify=2, Download=3, Automatic=4).
Close and you’re done!
Just had your number transfered to O2 and can’t send text messages? Don’t worry, this is normal for the first 24 hours (although it should start working much sooner than this).
Check your using the right message centre number to send messages. You can find these numbers on the O2 support site.
Another thing you could try is getting someone to send you a text message, this might start them working for you.
Ever tried editing php file with Microsoft Expression? I thought I would give Microsoft Expression Web a go recently and was using it to edit some PHP files. Big mistake! I suddenly started getting PHP error messages that the headers had already been sent out, such as:
Cannot send session cache limiter – headers already sent
and
Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by
Very annoying! I couldn’t spot anything wrong with the files in Notepad or Dreamweaver. I was very confused. So I decided to open the files in my web hosts online text editor. Lo and behold, Expression Web had put some odd characters before the opening PHP tags on a couple of files! I removed the characters in the text editor and now everything is working fine again.
Moral of the story? Microsoft is rubbish!
