iPhone and iPad Bogus Update Notifications


iPhone and iPad bogus update notifications ?

I have seen a lot of people asking and no one answering, so here is the answer to the question

Q) The app store says there are updates and when i go onto it, it says all my apps are up to date?

A) If it says there are say 5 or 10, 15 updates and when you hit it there's none their its because your running an OLDER  iOS   IE.. there ARE updates for that amount of apps you have notifications for, BUT the updates require iOS 7 or above so when it opens it wont give you them or show you them  ;)

Note to apple (if your reading)  you should show the apps and upon trying to install it should say its for an older version and you can't

Q) why wont they do that ?

A) because it'll say its for a newer version.. BUT would you like to install a compatible version?...
then it'll proceed to download and install the exact version you already have...
sloppy code lolz

See i use garageBand and iOS 6.1.4, i don't get told their is an update, i just get a number over the app store icon, but if i go to the garageband "app store page"  the download button says update, then says i can't and installs the one i already have ROFL

Windows XP BITS Update Nightmare Fixed


Your ERROR Code May Look Different.. But Same Solution


I was recently having murder updating a windows XP machine, I could access the updates but each download said FAILED, I tried the windows update fix-it, the microsoft update fixit, even tried forcing the re-install of the windows update package with the  /wuforce command, all to no avail.

Then I noticed in my Windows Services that BITS was missing gone done a bunk and fkd off
Then suddenly i noticed it, but instead of BITS it was listed as

Display Name  @%SystemRoot%\system32\qmgr.dll,-1001

Description @%SystemRoot%\system32\qmgr.dll,-1000
I was unable to start the Bits service

Then i realized the Display name was to throw off  I.T guys, they see the string and assume yeah its their
but its not, it should be listed as this..

Display Name  BITS

and the description should be

Description @%SystemRoot%\system32\qmgr.dll,-1001

Path to executable C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe -k netsvcs

to restore the bits service, create a TEXT file and paste this code into it
(make sure NO lines have spaces at the end or random symbols word wrap OFF)
