I keep getting an error message that says that Google's catego can't be found & to retry, but retrying doesn't work and I have to restart Firefox several times.

When I try to access Google, I always get a message that says this category can't be found and to report this broken site to Google or retry. Retrying never works and I usually have to exit Firefox and make several attempts before I get Google. Firefox can find my server but Google never on the first, second, or third try. Google says it is a problem with Firefox. This never happened until I upgraded to Windows 7!

  • I just reinstalled my PS7 onto a new computer, Vista, and now I keep getting an error message which says "photoshopelementssyncagent.exe-no disk.  I turned off Firewall, allowed Firewall to let in program and nothing works.  I can't even get into

    photoshop at all with this.  I am about ready to get rid of this stupid program!  Does anyone know how to fix this?  Does this not work with Vista?

    Attached is Dennis Linam’s Audition – “Log File” and “Log – Last File”
    Contact information Dennis [email protected]
    Previous contact information with your organization (DURIM):
    Dennis - i just finished my audition trial and bought the subscription the 2014 version.
    created by durin in Audition CS5.5, CS6 & CC - View the full discussion 
    DURIM - Okay.  I would expect the "Cache Warning" message because your default directories would not be the same as the ones in the settings file I generated.
    If you go back to the "7.0" directory and open the "Logs" folder, can you copy the "Audition Log.txt" file and send it as an attachment to [email protected]?  We'll take a look in that logfile and see if it gives us more information about why this is failing now.
    Also, do you have any other Adobe applications installed on this machine, such as Premiere Pro?  If so, do they launch as expected or fail as well?
    I do have the trial Pro version of Adobe reader, but I have not activated it, because I fear the same thing will happen did it. I cannot afford to activate the subscription for that product and take the chance of it not working either. I depend on those two programs religiously. Here is the files that you requested. I appreciate any help you can give me to get this audition program started

  • For some reason over the past two weeks any time I tried to download an app from iTunes I keep getting an error message which says "unable to be downloaded try again later.

    Hello, Over the last few weeks I have been unable to download any new applications to my iPhone five. Every time it pops up with an error message that says "cannot download at this time try again later." I don't know if I have accidentally reset something differently or just what the problem is. We had to get bank cards as a result of the "target" security breach, however our bank shows that iTunes has "pinged" our account so I know that that part of it is working. I do not understand how the cloud where perhaps it has something to do with a conflict there.
    I am bordering on the edge of real frustration can anyone please help? Kenny V.

    Hi, Kenny. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    There are a couple things that I would recommend trying.  Try closing all open applications and power cycle the device.  Next, go through the section labeled Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in the second article below.  If the issue persists, try completely signing out of the iTunes Store on the iOS device and sign back in.  Be sure to test downloading an application after each step.

    Hello ArtyJP,
    You can give this a shot to correct the permissions on your computer. I know you have Windows 8, the Windows 7 will still get you in the right place.

  • My ipod touch is telling me that the skype and twitter apps need updating. When I try to run them they fail. I have tried deleting the apps via itunes but it doesn't work and I have tried updating the apps via itunes and it says they are updated.

I have tried numerous times.  I have tried connecting the ipod to itunes and removing the apps, to reload them but that does not work either.  If I try and update the apps through itunes the system tells me they are updated.  Can anyone assist please?

  • When using Java Wizard with Firefox 3.6.23 on a Mac OS X 10.6.8 it keep getting an error message: "The Java Wizard cannot run. Please configure your browser to allow Java applets to access the filesystem." Have NO idea how to fix this problem.

    When trying to upload files I received the following error: "The Java Wizard cannot run. Please configure your browser to allow Java applets to access the filesystem."

    If the problem is with a site that is hosted using MOVEit DMZ by Ipswitch, please notify the site owner of the issue and ask them to apply the patch that is available on the support site to resolve the issue.
    This is a better resolution than downgrading your version of Java that was updated due to security issues.

  • How can I burn a dvd with a short movie file on my Imac so it will play on a dvd player? I keep getting an error message on my player "wrong disc type".

    How can I burn a small movie file to a dvd that will play on a dvd player? I keep getting an error message "wrong type of disc" on my player. My burner is built in to my monitor. Will I have to buy software such as Toast to burn with?

    I'm using the burner utility that came with the computer. The video is on I took with my small camera. I'm using a DVD-r disc and I drag the file to the disc icon then hit burn and everything seems ok. I can remove the disc and put it back in and see the file but if I put it in a DVD player it won't play, just get error message.

  • I keep getting a error message "address is not recognized be server"?

    I keep getting a error message "address is not recognized be server"?

    To download/install an app directly to the iPod you need available storage equal to about three times the file download size. Syncing the app to the iPod requires a lot less. Thus you either have to free up more storage or sync the app from your computer.
