Automatic update got hung up for over 30 minutes and had to force quit, now firefox opens but nothing functions correctly (tabs, menu, history, etc. broken).

I tried downloading Firefox again manually... from Firefox I got an error message about not being able to open the source. So, I downloaded from Chrome. This worked but Firefox loaded right up with the same problems. I would use the "Help > Troubleshooting Information" menu to reset to factory defaults, but when I click on "Troubleshooting Information" nothing happens (nothing happens when I click on anything within the menu).

It is possible that anti-virus software is corrupting downloaded files or is interfering otherwise.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
See:

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

  • New update has been installing for over 20 minutes

    I downloaded the new OS system update, but it has been on the installing software update for over 20 minutes with a moving blue/white activity bar.
    It is obviously hanging as installation on another machine in the house installed in a matter of minutes.
    Am I screwed? This is a business machine and I can't afford a loss.
    Doing this question through my ipad

    If you have it backed up then I would kill it. If you don't and the update is still progressing then leave it alone. Most likely it's taking a while because the system you are updating was dysfunctional.
    If you stop it and are still able to boot the computer then do the following:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    After this is completed download and install OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo).

  • I have files that have been on my computer for over a year and all of a sudden they wont open and an error message comes up saying they were improperly downloaded or came in an email attach which is not the case

    I have files that have been on my computer for over a year and I have used them several times and all of a sudden they wont open.  I received an error message saying they are improperly downloaded or came as an email attachement which is not the case.  Please advise

    They seem to be word files - they will open if I choose "open with" microsoft word, but if I double click they don't open they are appearing as PDF on my screen.  I even opened one and then tried to "save as" making sure I chose .doc and they still appear as PDF
    I just created a new document response.doc in word and when I saved to my desktop it appears as a PDF file and I absolutely did not create a PDF or save as PDF it was a simple word
    doc.
    The message says "Adobe reader could not open response.doc because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example attached in an email and not properly decoded)
    The reader version is I believe the most current, I always update when prompted.  OS is Windows 8

  • How can I get someone to answer the phone? I'm ready to give VERIZON my business. I sat on the phone for over 20 minutes only to be transferred to "Sales." I then sat on the phone for another 15 minutes!!!! I finally hung up.

    How can I get someone to answer the phone? I'm ready to give VERIZON my business. I sat on the phone for over 20 minutes only to be transferred to "Sales." I then sat on the phone for another 15 minutes!!!! I finally hung up.

    It takes an enormous amount of patience and time to get through to a qualified person.
    My Samsung S5 was locked out and needed a factory reset. Including attempts to achieve this locally, it took over an hour before my problem was even addressed.
    You may be interested in my journey to a very good technical support person.
    First I called the local sales person who had given me his personal business card with the friendly advice to call me with any questions. No answer at about 8:30 am when the business was open. His voice mailbox was full.
    Then I called the local store where I had purchased the phone. The person who answered the phone had learned all the proper stock phrases, but was not familiar with the issue, stated that there were no customers in the store, and I should go there in about an hour when there would be more staff. He suggested dialing *411 from my phone (which was locked). Then he gave me a number to call Verizon, which he had to look up, and it took a minute or so. The number was (removed). That is an internal number for employees and contractors and requires a code to access, obviously not designed for customers' use. He finally cut me off by stating that there were a number of customers in line waiting for his attention!
    After researching all my papers I found 800-922-0204 on my bill. The automated message suggested a hold time of 5 minutes, it took 20 minutes for a Customer Service Representative to pick up, and then I was referred to technical assistance. The hold time was announced to take 5 minutes, after 12 minutes I finally was connected.
    Fortunately I had my computer set up for Skype on a loudspeaker, and was able to do some other paperwork while waiting.
    Persistence was rewarded by having the good fortune to be connected to a very experienced, qualified and patient technical support staff with the name of Thomas (removed). He solved my problem, answered my questions during the process of resetting the phone, and gave an example of courteous and kind customer service that I had never experienced before when dealing with any major internet company.

  • My phone won't turn on. I have tried the Power button   home button several times and even held it for over 3 minutes.. When I plug it in it still won't respond to itunes PLEASE HELP!! A little water got in it but it was like a drop or two..

    My Iphone 4g, won't turn on, I have tried the power button + home button several times and held them for over 3 minutes. It won't even respond to Itunes and I can't restore it because of that. A little water got into it before it completely shut off but it was like little drops.. Please HELPP.
    I also have tried  to put it in rice and left it there for 9 hours and it still doesn't work

    A drop or two of water may have been enough to cook it. If it was bad enough to prompt you to put it in a bag of rice, then I'd venture to guess it was more than a drop or two.
    Try putting it back in the bag of rice and leave it there for several days.
    If that doesn't fix it, then you're more than likely looking at paying for an out of warranty replacement.
    Water and delicate electronics don't generally get along well.

    Hopefully it's been resolved by now - I have no idea how large each one of those files are. The progress bar tells you; FWIW, I only download one at a time - makes it easier and faster and you can choose to do the next one when you have time.

  • Failure to fix my cable for over a year and a half! HELP!

    Failure to fix my cable for over a year and a half! HELP!
    I regretfully have to inform you that I might have to discontinue using Comcast, for the following reasons if I cannot et you to resolve these issues. It should be noted that this is something that I do not want to have to do. However, basically I have no choice.
    1. Repeated and Constant Internet Issues and Poor TV Quality for over a year.
    2. A substandard quality of service, just even compared to my next door neighbors who has Comcast. The service has issues daily. Not a week has gone bye without an issue either small or large.
    3. Constant and repeated interrupt of service and an overall low quality of product. Time Outs, High Ping rates into the 100s and 200s, Cable Light Off, Poor Quality of TV picture, fuzzy, Digital Blocking even on non-digital channels with or without box, Occasional CB Radio chatter over interment connection <-(the odd one).
    4. The constant run around from the employee’s at Comcast and Service Department who either are unable to fix my problem, or unwilling to fix my problem, or have no one qualified to fix the problem. The amount of service calls and tech support personal I have had come to my house and had to call is so numerous I cannot even recall the amount.
    5. Paying full price for a substandard quality and product while others around me do not have too. Including my next door neighbor which does not seem to have an issue.
    The Story-
    I purchased this house over a year and a half ago. Note; I did think it was odd that the pervious owner of this house had Comcast TV, but a DSL internet connection (I know now why he had to do that). In a brief conversation with him recently when he was visiting our next door neighbors he told me of how he had the same issues and had to switch to DSL.
    I am, and always have been an avid Cable user and in particular for the Internet as the Broadband just makes it so much more enjoyable. I used Time Warner Cable for over 7-years prior to “having to” use Comcast with great service and good connection and a highly enjoyable time over the internet playing games and surfing the web. I have to use the words :“having too”, as you are the only Broad Band Internet connection in my area currently (I moved to the Burbs, not the Boonies) so I still don’t understand why my choices are limited. Must be nice to have a Monopoly though. : ), and I am starting to think this maybe part of my problems and why nothing is being done.
    In any case, my internet use is for entertainment only. Surfing the Web, playing video games, Online Classes, and whatnot. Nothing life treating, or a must have service and basically, fun for the family, not for frustration. I like to use Cable as I never have to worry about the line cutting out or losing connection. This used to be the case, but with Comcast I do have to worry about this, and it happens often. Simply put: it is NOT always ON as advertised, at least for me.
    The Issues-
    From day one, I have had nothing but repeated and constant issues with my internet service. I don’t even think I had Comcast a week before I had to make my fist service call. See I was used to another Cable service and silly me expected my cable to work. From there it was all downhill. I have had so many service calls its actually outlandish and would be funny if it was someone else. Its like a TV sitcom actually.
    Each and every service call goes the same way. Tech comes out, stands around, recognizes the problem and leaves. No fixes mind you, and the reasons are below.
    Recent History-
    With the internet on the fritz again and only seeming to get worse I decided to call and have someone come out and check it. A preemptive strike on my part in other words, before it totally blew out like it does and taking days for it to come back on. I have been dealing with this for over a year getting kind of frustrated with the whole process.
    I talk to the service department and they also see the issue (sporadic interrupt of service and poor quality). With so many problems and the list ever growing most likely on my report the service guy said he would send a Line Tech out to check my problem on Monday (the ninth).
    I think to myself finally some progress and it only took a year, a real Line Tech my issue is sure to be solved.
    Unfortunately, the apparent Line Tech does and did the same as every other tech sent to the house. Set around for 20 or so minutes futzing around with the computer. Notes the issue of single loss and poor TV quality makes some notes and says sign here. *take note of paragraph below about Line Tech.
    Around Thursday, I call up the service department basically asking if and when my service problems will be fixed. With little shock and surprise I was told that nothing is scheduled the last service call the Line Tech was not really a Line Tech and I should have been called back and or at least informed of that a Line Tech was not scheduled to be sent. This is normal by the way.
    The Phone Tech checked my service and found that an issue did exist and proceeded to tell my that he would advise his supervisor of the issue. He also stated that if someone had not called me by 6:00PM this coming Saturday, that I could call and he would expedite matters.
    Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock
    Saturday at 6:20PM I call up the service department, punch in my phone number and low and behold I’m sent immediately to the Clams Department instead of the Service Department LOL.
    After explaining the issue to the Clams Department (my thinking is at this point is; why pay for it if its not working and they wont fix it) I am transferred to the Service Department after a brief expiation of the issue. I guess I am a little late with my bill, but can you blame me?
    The Run Around-
    Talking to a new service persona again which is the same with ever tech sent to the house (Never the same one twice). Apparently nothing is on my report about this call I made earlier, or he does not note it.
    The new service tech while helpful and curious taking the brunt of my frustrations at this point goes through the same procedures that I have been through so many times now I know them by hart. I acknowledge the fact ahead of time to myself that my tone although frustrated is nothing personal, and the service tech should not take it personally. Its just that at this point I’m beyond frustrated. I try to be as understanding and curious as I can while he tries to help me.
    I explain the repeated problems and what is going on. In this instants the service tech mentions something about some service package (come kind of other signal maybe being sent to the modem).
    At the time my internet is somewhat working with only a few time outs and just above normal pings so I cant really blame him for not seeing an issue. I’m mainly calling just to find out why I didn’t receive a phone call, or get another appointment to have this checked into.
    My service was cutting out right before I called, which is why I called. The service tech just happened to check my service while it was working for 20 or so minutes. : P
    Although, I am sure the Tech knew what he was doing and seemed very knowledgeable and probably thought he had resolved an issue that has been plaguing me for over a year now I knew nothing had changed. (this has happened before by the way same exact procedure in fact, and must be part of the training).
    I’m trying to hold my volume down and not get too upset. Its not the techs fault and probably does not know I have gone through this procedure before. I want to try to explain this but he is busy trying to work his magic. I remain calm, but I even made the statement that I would probably be calling him back in 15-minutes. I try to end the conversation and phone call as politely as I can. Its not his fault, his just trying to do a job.
    Anthony
    Case Number: 053300005
    Well not even five minutes later you will never guess what………… Pings start dropping and the internet is cutting out on me.
    The Problem-
    The problem has been defined as a Line Issue, and an On and Off interrupt of service. At this point even the TV is being affected. From the first time I called (like over a year ago) the issue is defined to me as an On OFF issue.
    The Problem trying to get this fix-
    You apparently have no Line Techs.
    The Pole near my house is apparently a Forbidden Area that no one must go near. LOL
    You cannot get these people to go near it apparently. They only classify the problem and go away never to be seen nor heard from again.
    Now honestly I can understand with employee issues seeing this happening from time to time, but not for over a year and with service calls up in the tens and twenties…..
    Worst of All-
    I think the worst part of all of this is I have become so used to the poor and substandard quality of service. So used to it that I only call or complain when its totally out or is visually not working correctly and can be tested. I don’t call and complain because its not working as Advertised, because in fact it really never did or does.
    I also, don’t call a lot of the times because of dealing with the service department. If its working at that moment they cannot define the problems. Not really anyone’s fault as it looks like its working even if the pings are in the 200 range or currently no time outs are accruing. I mean at least its working, and they say Speed is not Guaranteed anyway.
    The Forgotten and Unanswered Questions-
    I don’t know about the rest of you but sometimes while talking to people I forget to ask questions or the question does not come to mind until the conversation is over with. In any case, the Phone Service Tech said that what he did should have been done along time ago.
    However, if my cable was somehow magically fixed by what he did I still have these questions;
    1.What happened to my Service Call and why did no one call my by 6:00PM today?
    -I waited around for the call actually, and I really would like to get this issue resolved.
    2. Why is my TV picture still bad?
    3. Although my internet seemed to be working today and only cut out once for a brief period of time why did the supposed fix of the Phone Tech double and even triple my pings, and still occasionally cuts out?
    This is usually when I can tell its going to start acting up as the interrupts become more frequent and growing in intensity and length. I always have them anyway I am used to it.
    However, on the other hand, I am already seeing time outs and interrupts and should I be paying full price for a lower quality of service compared just to my next door neighbor ?
    This is a very hard question for me to ask myself. I like using Cable rather than a Dialup Service, but there is also the whole principle to the matter as well.
    *Should I pay full price for a service that is substandard to everyone else’s?
    *Should I pay full price for the same connecting I used to get a discount for, because of the poor quality?
    *Should I call and complain everyday and turn this into a daily ritual? I cant keep taking time off from work to wait for someone who does nothing except stand around and futz with the computer for 20mintes and recognize the issue.
    *Should I have to complain so much and go through the process which is like pulling teeth to get you guys to do something about it?
    Maybe this is all my fault, and I am doing something wrong. What do I have to do to get this fixed? I don’t want to have to get DSL, so someone please help me. What am I doing wrong. I cannot keep taking time off from work to have someone come out only to recognize I have an issue and never fix it.
    To Whomever at Comcast:
    Is it so wrong of me to want, after a year of having repeated service calls with no resolution to the issue to ask, and request, that the cable service provided to me is the same as everyone else’s?
    If you handed noticed-
    Well if you haven’t noticed by now I am really tying to get this situation fixed and resolved. Mostly because, it is to the point where I am going to have to stop using Comcast and get DSL, or AOL or something because its more reliable. Which I really don’t want to do in the first place cable is supposed to be reliable and always on and faster.
    A little over a year not and I am running out of options though.
    Seriously Cant anyone help?

    Swami
    Wed/Jan/18
    An eventful day-
    Just a few minutes ago, got a phone call from the Comcast Cable GUY (2:20pm). He then Says he’s been working on trying to find the problem from 1 O’clock. Apparently, and maybe the case, (it was a brief conversation and he will get back to me later) but maybe some part has gone bad somewhere and he said he was waiting on a phone call from someone else.
    In any case, he said that they are trying to clear up the problem and that its been running better sense the Jan/14.….? Not here it hasn’t. LOL We also had a brief discussion about how due to my repeated use of the internet that maybe I notices this more than other people do. My next door neighbor does not seem to have any issues last time I talk to them. But the guy said someone who lives on Broadway (few streets over) has been having issues too so maybe its this part.
    I said; So I should see some improvement today… silence…and a brief pause….. After I find out what the problem is Ill come over and discuss it with you so you know exactly what is going on.
    I do have a feeling I am going to be told this is going to take weeks to fix or at least awhile. Apparently a Part is needed maybe. Ill have to wait until the guy shows and gives me a full explanation though.
    I called my wife and told her of the event and she is pretty emphatic about returning the TV cable box as the TV picture is better without it and she only really looks at the local or 3-like 70 anyway. She was like “Bad Part?” well its been bad for over a year then! We should get a refund for the whole year then… Sorry Comcast she is on a Refund Kick… I just want it to work.
    Part/4-
    The Tech Supervisor Mark, showed up at my door and tried to explain the issues. I felt kind of bad cause I probably know he got Chewed on along with some other people probably. At least they sent someone older and who looked like he had more experience and knew what he was talking about and could actually find the issue.
    I tried to be as apologetic as I could, and tried to explain that its just because this has been such a persistent issue over the past year and a half, and I have had way too many service calls for this not to be fix by now. I even went so far as to explain; it’s a new year and we are trying to get this problem finally fixed. I was also quick to mention how nice it was outside and that at least it was a good day to run around outside. I would have felt really bad if it was raining or snowing out, but it was a nice day probably upper 60s and sunny.
    We briefly discussed the issues and he said he and some others (I guess) had been working t the Head End fixing some issues… Which actually might have fixed my TV picture, seems better right now currently though. Currently NO digital Blocking on any channels currently, but as I said, it’s a sporadic issue popping up one day and going away the next or the problem lasting weeks and months then nothing for a few days and weeks.
    Mark, tried to explain that maybe the problem that I might been having (apparently along with a few others) was that a Temporary Line was connected on the MAIN. Basically 1” Main Line Cable run it to cable like that’s in your house (cant remember but off hand I think its 5, 10 or 15 gauge cable) and back to 1” Main Line Cable. It was all a little technical, I just nodded and said yes, and at least you might have found the issue right?
    He didn’t know how long that had been like that, and I said; probably for over three years as the previous owner had issues too, or at least sense I had bought this house about a year and a half.
    I went so far as to showed him some print screens of some of the issues I have been having, and I know he noticed all the yellow recites in my computer room. : P Unfortunately, I deleted all my old Print Screen saves when the guy last Monday (ninth) showed up and said he would fix the line, or at least track it down. I only had one from the previous night to show him or something.
    In any case, while discussing this Mark, said the guy that came out the other Monday never filled out a work order or something like that. I basically tried to explain that is the kind of thing I have been dealing with for little over a year. Tech after Tech after Tech; as I looked at all the yellow recites on top of my computer desk.
    Mark also, basically said, I should have pretty fast cable considering I only have two nodes and then basically it runs back to Comcast, or something like that. However, that Temporary Line is probably causing the issues. No definite date on a fix, but maybe 24-hours or a few days, but the matter had been expedited or something like that. *Cross fingers*
    That’s the real issue with this cable, its sporadic, and comes and goes. I’m pretty sure they are going to try to replace that line, but you know what….. I have heard that before actually. I have actually heard that for over a year now. Even the expedited part. : P
    Mark tried to thank me for pointing out this issue, and made some comment about how its actually helping them….but………. I can kind of tell he had been getting yelled at or something by someone. It was not obvious, but I could tell.
    I felt kind of bad about that, but… That happens when you work for someone, and the people who work for you (below you) don’t do what they are supposed too.
    I kind of tried to briefly explain to Mark about the issue again and that usually by the time a Supervisor gets out the issue has cleared up for a time….. Odd how that works by the way. But basically I got the old…well it looks like its working ok now and you should have seen some improvements over the last few days… thingy..
    We started talking about that Temporary Line being connected again and I walked Mark to the door and we said our goodbyes and I apologized again for being such a pain in the about this whole matter.
    Part/5-
    I called the wife and told here about everything. The first thing she asked is; is it fixed? She is still not happy especially when I tired to explain what the issue was and probably was and that at least maybe they found it.
    I have no idea of what kind of onward action maybe on my part in the end if things don’t get better. Its like trying to argue with the old Bell Telephone Company when that was the only phone company in the US and no other phone companies existed.
    I hope to one day, be a satisfied Comcast Customer, but to date I have yet to feel that way, at least with the Internet in any case and that’s only because I really don’t watch TV.
    I am also, hoping when, and if, some LINE is replaced somewhere that I see some drastic improvement along with apparently a lot of other people in my community and a lot less issues also. I still don’t believe that I should be just setting for; Ok well at least its ON now, or the light has finally stopped flashing.
    All a SNAFU?
    That’s highly questionable at this point, and I have to be honest with you. This is going on a year and a half of dealing with this. This SNAFU, could be the case, but it seems more like policy, or a standing Comcast Company Directive actually if you want my honest opinion. I don’t know what the Maintenance Budget is for my area, but you might want to consider doubling it, or tripling it.
    I really don’t care actually when this is fixed, as long as the issue is fixed. I cannot make a final judgment until it is finally fixed and go on and try to take further action onward from that point.
    Thus far I have only been given an explanation. I don’t know if anyone at Comcast realize exactly how many times I have had an explanation given too me though (either on the phone with a service tech or from an actual person “tech” at my house). The list is extensive of the actual explanations I have had over the past year and a half, but my favorite one is; squirrels.
    Part/6-
    We are still waiting on phone calls from people who said they would call us back today and check what’s going on. Both of us, (me and the wife) are slowly losing momentum again as this whole issue gets dragged out for weeks and weeks at a time.
    She is tired and I’m tired too, and Comcast is warring us down again it looks like. My wife was like; “do I have to call them, I really didn’t have a good day anyway and I’m tired. They were supposed to call us anyway, lets wait.”
    I tried to make a phone call (half heartedly, I myself as I’m tired too) as Carla (at my local Comcast office) wanted to know how the service call went, but after repeated attempts and being shuffled off to Billing, and then being put on hold : P ……and its actually getting close to dinner time. Maybe after dinner if I don’t just fall asleep first.
    So, in the end its still hang on for a few more days, and or, wait to have the problem fixed. Your guess is as good as mine, people. More Smoke and Mirrors or an actual Fix. Your guess is as good as mine.
    As for me, I’m going to bed, I’m worn out. Maybe a new line to replace that temporary one, maybe just saying I might get a new line to replace that temporary one.
    The Saga continues. Maybe it will end someday.
