SQL Server 2012 Browser Service doesn't appear - sql-server

I've installed SQL Server 2012 and Management Studio Express. I attached the database that belongs my previous Project in Visual Studio. But I am having SqlException Error , I think the reason of the error is SQL Server. Because when I look at active services, I only see SQL Server VSS Writer service. I can't see SQL Server Browser Service and other SQL Server services. How can I solve this problem? Thanks in advance.

When you run SQL Server Express, by default, the named instance option is selected with SQLExpress as the instance name. Ab example "SERVER01\SQLEXPRESS".
You should have a browser service but can you give the SQL Exception you're having because this migth have a clue what's going wrong.

I can't connect to SQL Server 2014 Analysis Services

I'm trying to connect to Analysis Services in SQL Server 2014 on server (local), but appears this error:
Cannot connect to (local). Additional Information: A Connection cannot
be made. Ensure that the server is running.
(Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient) A connection cannot be made
because the destination computer had refused.
Please help me solving this.
I am using Developer edition.
In my case, MS Analysis Services was not installed and that's why it was giving error. I ran the setup.exe to launch the installation wizard to add Analysis Services feature in my MS Sql Server and then it got resolved.
Since, I am using everything on one machine which is Windows Server 2012, I didn't require to make any change in firewall setting.

Report Services (SSRS) 2005 connect database in Microsoft SQL Server 2014

Currently I am working on a project it is request us to connect their database (Server A with Microsoft SQL Server 2014) via SSRS (Server B with Microsoft SQL Server 2005).
I keep facing the problem with this message :
The version of the report server database is either in a format that
is not valid, or it cannot be read. The found version is '162'. The
expected version is 'C.0.8.54'. To continue, update the version of the
report server database and verify access rights.
(rsInvalidReportServerDatabase) (rsRPCError) Get Online Help
Can anyone help me? Thanks a lot.
I think the problem is likely to be that the ReportServer database has been created using SQL Server 2014. Trying to connection a SQL Server 2005 Report Server installation to that database will not work because they are not compatible. If it is possible to run Reporting Services with a configuration like this at all, and I'm not sure that it is, you will need to have a ReportServer database that was created using SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services Configuration Manager.

I select data soruce type, then i write sql server instance name and then related combobox filled my databases. Finally, i select my database.
I use Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express but Hydro GeoAnalyst return an error when i want to connect my database on MS SQL. Then i have installed Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Express and Hydro GeoAnalyst returned the same error:
Unable to Connect 'AYSE/SWS'. Ensure that the SQL Server exists and is running.
I have controlled my MS SQL Server 2012 and 2014 on SQL Server Management Studio and they works with no problems. I have controlled SQL Server Configuration Manager but no solution. Why do i take this error ? Is this because of express edition of SQL Server ?
Please help. Thanks in advance.
I send error picture:
If you are using SQL Server Express installed on another machine (not your local machine) make sure you have it configured for remote connections (http://blog.citrix24.com/configure-sql-express-to-accept-remote-connections/).
Also Please be aware that the vendor support email for Hydro GeoAnalyst has changed to support#waterloohydrogeologic.com. If you continue to experience difficulties contact them and they will be happy to look into the issue further.

Cannot create New Database in SQL Server 2008

Anyone please give me some ideas what to do next? I have a 2008 SQL Server installed, and try to create a DB on my PC \SQLExpress, however, I come up with the following message:
Cannot write property isfilestream this property is not available on sql server 7.0
Actually I have already enabled this via the properties within Management Studio and via the configuration tool, but the message still pops out...
My computer originally has 2008, but because I cannot access to the local server .\SQLExpress, then I re-downloaded the 2012 SQL Server, and then is able to access to the local server via 2008 SQL management studio. Not sure if this is related to my issue
Thank you so much in advance!

Unable to login to sql server

I dont know much about sql server.
I have just re-installed windows 7 on my laptop. After that I installed Visual Studio 2012 Express Edition. I also Installed SQL Server Management Studio 2008 R2.
Now when I try to log in to sql server management studio by using server name as . or (local) or .\SQLEXPRESS or PC-Name\SQLEXPRESS and using Windows Authentication I get the error as below.
Please dont mark this question as negative as I have searched on google for last 4 hours but did not understand the problem.
Update:
There are many reasons that may cautioning the problem:
SQL Server is not running
SQL Server is not properly configured
You try to connect with a worng instance Name
You can try the following:
Go to Mycomputer->Rigt Click->Manage->Application and Services
And from there check that SQL Server Express is running
2.From there also, gCheck the Instance name of your SQL Express and be sure when you log on to Management Studio you Provide the same Instance name
Confirm that the service is installed and running. Under Computer Management, drill-down into Services and Applications -> Services.
There should be a service named "SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)". Try a restart or start of the service.
If any other instance of SQL Server is installed it will be listed - try connecting to LOCALHOST(whatever the instance is listed as) to verify the installation is functional.
UPDATED following further information from comments:
You may have only installed the client tools (management studio), and have not installed the database service. Ensure you have the correct installer which includes the database services engine.
First check that the SQL Server parameters are set accordingly.
Go to Start -
All Programs — Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 — Configuration tools —
SQL Server Configuration Manager
Under SQL Server Services, make sure that the instance is running :
SQL Server ()
SQL Server Browser
Under SQL Server Network Configuration - Protocols for (), these are enabled:
TCP/IP
Named Pipes
Do the same under SQL Native Client 10.0 under Client Protocols
