After recent upgrade Mozilla will open but does not connect. I have uninstall/reinstalled several times. I have NortonAntivirus.

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • The update to the upgrade server runs on but does not connect for this new upgrade

    I was notified that there is a newer version 14 from existing 13.01. Several files were downloaded and installed, then it said to re-start. Okay so far, then Mozilla re-starts on ver 13 and another window opens saying that it is connecting to server, but it never does. Keeps running. Still on ver 13.01, not 14

    Sometimes the updater messes up, requiring you to download the Firefox update manually. Go to [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com], and download and install Firefox 14.0.1

    Thanks for your lengthy reminder dude, I have a similar Mac with yours. I suspect its a software fault because it happens after I upgraded to Lion, 10.7.2.

  • Carrier issues, Iphone 3gs: Carrier is in the carrier list but does not connect = no service

    Right introduction, I live in the country signal for iphones under 02 in my area is 3-4 bars of GPRS signal. This is plenty to make and receive calls, texts and all that as use home wifi for internet simple. Everything working fine for about a year of having the phone, then did updates and started to see the "no service"  almost all the time and had to place my iphone in a signal spot just to get 1-2 bars and couldn't touch it without dropping out! Basically I could not use it at all and the crap about the signal now showing true signal is rubbish as before i could make calls fine and no drops, but now due to "no service" i can't make any calls or texts or anything. I have a ipod touch when nothing HAS CHANGED other than i can think when the update to 4.0 came along! I have been living with this for almost a year. I have done every possible solution, apple stores, 02 stores, new sim cards (many), every type of phone resetting possible, manually turning off 3g and other settings to turning everything off bar just basic GPRS signal. Network resets everything possible no joy what so ever.
    I have been paying for a year now for a phone that i can't use anywhere other than right next to a signal tower! Yes the phone connects to GPRS, EDGE, 3G when in town but just about. Before these problems i could get max 3G signal in my local town no issues but now struggle to get 1 bar of 3g in a town as well. The problem is I used to be able to use my phone as a phone where i needed to use the phone. Now i can't use the phone anywhere and get drop calls all the time when i do manage to get signal!!!!!!!
    Now i can't even connect to 02, yet at home under a manual carrier search all UK networks appear on the list including 02, I click on 02 and it comes up with the warning "network lost see settings" So my phone CAN find signal but does not connect to 02. This has been the case for a long time now and as stated before several sim cards latter and plenty of trips to apple and changes of phone make NO difference which makes me believe this is a software issue on apple's part. I only started getting these issues when the iphone 4 came out and updated the ios. Now what can i do, i can not downgrade the ios as i never jailbreaked my phone so don't have the files stored that i should to be able downgrade. Apple are offering 0 help with this, all i want to do is smash it to bits as it no longer works as a phone. I have to use a 10 year old nokia to call and actually use my contract that I PAY FOR. I PAID FOR MY PHONE and just after the warranty runs out as well and it seems all a software problem.
    I have searched all over the net to find no solutions to my problems this is a last resort before i do actually smash the thing and I love apple to bits but come on a simple software issue.
    I mean isn't it silly that i can't downgrade my ios and that apple don't support this and yet my issue seems to lie in there update.
    I know that the signal update reworked the algorithm to show true signal XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX um no it doesn't as now i have 0 signal as before i had no problems what so ever with dropping calls and the signal showing right so WHY WHY WHY.
    Please help I am so frustrated with things and need to solve this issue. Please ask anymore questions if you want more details about anything, i need to sort this out please.
    By the way i am running ios 4.3.3 yet bellow in the options this is not stated?? I have been updating hoping that it gets solved but only seems to get worse the more i update.
    Thanks

    Is my original iPad compatible with iHome iDM12 wireless speakers?  I am having trouble pairing.  iPad sees device but does not connect.

    It should be it the iHome supports the bluetooth profiles that the iPod supports. See:

    Try resetting the iHome if it was previusly paired to another device.

  • My ipod will charge but does not show in itunes or windows

    I tried to use my ipod as a disk to transfer my itunes library from my desktop to my notebook (both Dell), now my ipod charges, but does not show up in itunes or on either of my computers. I have used the advice of going to control panel and unchecking the box under power management but that didn't work, CAN SOMEONE PLEASE PLLLEEEEAAAASSSSSSSEEEEEEE HELP ME?
    I have windows xp on one and vista on the other, if that helps.

    This worked for me, don't know if it will for you. Have ITunes open. While IPod is connected to computer press(at the same time) the menu and center buttons until your screen goes black and shows the apple icon then immediately press the forward button. Your IPod should show up. It won't hurt to try it, even if it doesn't work. Hope this is of some help to you.

  • HT1752 iMac flat panel 2003 shows airport but does not connect

    Hi,iMac flat panel 2003 shows airport but does not connect

    No problems.
    Let's double-check your iMac's Internet Sharing configuration:
    To setup for Internet Sharing (Wired to Wireless):
    Setup the Network
    Cable Modem > (Ethernet cable) > \[Ethernet port] iMac > (wireless) > MacBook
    Enable Software Firewall (iMac)
    System Preferences > Security > Firewall
    o Block all incoming connections (enabled)
    Enable Internet Sharing (iMac)
    System Preferences > Sharing
    o Select "Internet Sharing" from the options in the left column
    o Share your connection from: Built-in Ethernet
    o To computers using: AirPort (checked) (Note: Uncheck all other entries in the list.)
    AirPort Options... (iMac)
    o Network Name: <anything you want>
    o Channel: Automatic
    o Enable encryption <do NOT enable at this time>
    o Click OK
    o Select "Internet Sharing" again
    o Click "Start" to start Internet Sharing
    o Click Start
    Please verify these settings, and try accessing the Internet from the MacBook again. For this exercise, I suggest co-locating the MacBook with the iMac.

    When calling out to someone their phone rings and they hear us but the call does not connect on our end

    Sorry to hear about your problem. Is this happening on every phone you use in the house? Cordless or Corded phones? Do you receive incoming calls fine?

  • BB recognized by computer & Desktop Manager, but does not connect?

    All right, I've scoured these forums and can't figure this out. Tell me if I've missed something.
    Blackberry is recognized by my computer AND by Desktop Manager, but does not fully connect so I can sync. I can see it in My Computer, and the Desktop Manager does recognize the model of smartphone when it's plugged in. Both Windows, and Desktop Manager ask me for my password when I connect the USB cord. However, it just says 'connecting' in the bottom right, and never gets past that. When the phone is initially plugged in, the screen goes to the clock (normal), and flashes the 'connection' screen (BB and computer icons connecting with a cord). It flashes that screen twice then goes back to the clock. The Desktop Manager then just keeps trying to connect, until I unplug it. Both the computer and desktop manager recognize when I've unplugged it.
    Running:
    Windows 7, 64bit
    Desktop Manager 6.1.0.35
    Blackberry Tour 9630
    This is a new computer. I was running Windows XP with Desktop Manager 6.1.0.35 previously, and it worked no problem, but that is no longer an option.
    The goal is to be able to sync with Outlook 2007. Need very badly to be able to do this.
    Did all the simple stuff:
    Oh so many Windows restarts,
    Blackberry battery pull, both unplugged and plugged into computer with Desktop Manager running,
    Desktop manager reinstall,
    plugged into every different USB port,
    tried a different cord.
    Went deeper:
    BB USB drivers fully up to date
    Turned OFF USB power management on all my ports in device manager,
    Disabled USB selective suspend setting
    Deleted my intellisync folder in appdata/roaming,
    Turned off Windows UAC notifications,
    Tried every combination of BB memory compression on and off, or mass storage mode on and off,
    There might be more I've tried but don't remember. I've been searching the net for days now.
    Please let me know if there's anything else I can try. This is a serious issue for me right now, I need to be able to sync with Outlook 2007.
    Thanks in advance

  • ITunes opens but does not appear on desktop?

    When I open iTunes by dbl clk on the icon, the graphic equalizer pops up on the screen, and if I right click the icon, it will play  recent music from that menu. But...iiTunes does not show up on my screen. I hear the music (garbled) but cannot find iTunes. I have the 11.1.5 version and 10.9.2 OSX on a iMac24. It may be coincidental but, it showed up fine til I recently went to Mavericks. What should I look for to solve this?

    Hello tscacro
    Start with going to the drop down menu, Window > iTunes to see if it pops up the iTunes window so you can view your music again. If that does not work, then download and reinstall iTunes.

  • Any external hyperlink (to Firefox) does not open in Firefox. Firefox is default browser. Firefox opens but does not open external hyperlink.

    If I click on a hyperlink in application that is external to Firefox, clicking on the link opens Firefox, goes to the home page and that is all. The hyperlinked web page does not open.
    If Firefox is already open, a new browser window is opened, goes to the home page. The hyperlinked web page does not open.

    Apparently this is an add-on problem. I disabled all of the add-ons and the problem is now fixed. I have not been able to find out which is the culprit yet but I will track it down. If and when I find the problem add-on, I will post the name(s) here.
