I received a message to upgrade my Firefox version . It went to successful completion but I get a message unable to find proxy server?

After updating to latest version of Firefox i am unable to access internet. Get message Unable to find proxy server. This update also disable internet explorer so I cannot use it to access either. The desktop that I am having trouble with is running Windows XP Professional.

hi, please check in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > network > connection - settings...'' if firefox is set up to directly connect to the internet ('no proxy').
and maybe also run a full scan of your system with the security software already in place and different tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes], [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] & [http://www.kaspersky.com/security-scan kaspersky security scan].

Error message - Unable to find proxy server - how can I solve this problem

When I try to enter some sites I get the error message: Unable to find the proxy server, Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that can't be found. This happened suddenly and I'm not sure why or how I can fix it, it doesn't help that most help site are blocked. Im using a Mac 10.5.8 and Firefox 15.

You can check the connection settings.
*Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > Network : Connection > Settings
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Options+window+-+Advanced+panel
If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.
See "Firefox connection settings":

HT4972 I keep getting a message unable to find update server. Can someone help me. I am tryig to update my Iphone

I have been trying to update my phone for weeks. I keep getting the message "Unable to find update server. I have the latest I phone. Please help.

This is asked and answered many times every day. The forum search bar is on the right side of this page.
Disable your firewall/security software and try again.

Since this upgrade to Firefox 31 on the mac I can no longer get to any HP iLo.

Since this upgrade to Firefox 31 on the mac I can no longer get to any HP iLo, does anybody know what happened with security certificates with this update? Firefox does not ask to accept the certificate anymore it just says there i an invalid certificate.
Issuer certificate is invalid. (Error code: sec_error_ca_cert_invalid)

Note that if you remove the cert8.db file that this removes all intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored and possible exceptions that you created in the paste as well (see also cert_override.txt).
You will have to leave libPKIX disabled for now if that makes it possible to access these websites.
A possibility is to create a button with the PrefBar extension to toggle the security.use_mozillapkix_verification pref when needed, so you can see which sites have issues with PKIX.
What kind of error message do you get when you visit these websites if there is still one?
Can you attach a screenshot of the technical details or possibly post a link if the site is publicly accessible (i.e. no authentication or signing on required)?

How do you upgrade OS X 10.4.11 tiger to a higher version of operating system such as OS x 10.5.6 as have tried running the upgrade disc on imac 5,1 with intel processor but only get message saying this cannot be installed with no further explanation ?

Retail Leopard disc looks like this;
(The disc itself has the same logo). If the one you've got is grey it simply won't work.
Given the retail and second hand prices of Leopard (usually some on Amazon MP), you'll probably find it cheaper to go directly to Snow Leopard, although there could be software updates and printer driver problems that could nullify the difference.

Error Message: "Unable to find qm_dw.htm

(I'm a low-to-moderate ability user - just upgraded from MX2004 to CS4 and just moved from PC to MacBook) I'm working through various DW CS4 tutorials and added one 'Adobe' plug-in (Lorem and More). On recent DW start-ups I have started getting the message "Unable to find qm_dw.htm in the Configuration/Floaters directory. The floater will not be shown." Does anyone know how I can resolve this? Many thanks in anticipation. John.

In case it helps, try deleting the DW cache file

In the icloud settings, I am told I need to accept the terms and conditions to use icloud. However, when I click on "Terms and conditions", I get a message "unable to connect to server". This has been happening for a week now since I upgraded to iOS 7.06. There is no problem with my wifi or cellular connectivity, all other applications work perfectly. P.S.I have never used icloud before, but wish to do so now. How do I overcome this problem?

Have you turned the iPad off then back on? That often helps with problems.

I have been regularly receiving video tutorials from Addicted 2 Salsa and synching these to my iPod but recently I have been unable to do so. I overcame this problem in the past by making an ipod version or loading them on to iMovie and then sharing them but this method no longer works. THere is no problem viewing them on my computer and everything else synchs okay to the iPod so what is going on and how can I overcome this problem?

Double check to make sure podcasts are configured to sync to your device from under the iPod's Podcast configuration tab.
To access the Podcasts tab for your iPod, plug your iPod in and click on it from under theDevices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the Summary tab. Along the top you should see a Podcasts tab, so go ahead and click on it. Here you can configure how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.
If you do make any changes to do this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to apply the update changes to your device.
Otherwise, are you getting any error messages when you sync your iPod Classic with iTunes?

TV System Update hangs at 21% with message "Cannot connect to proxy server"

Hi,
just installed TVSU (latest version) on my Thinkpad T40 (with WinXP Pro SP3, German). Installs fine, runs perfect after reboot, recognises the correct model, initiates search for updates and then stops at 21% whilst displaying
"Downloading Packet Information: Lenovo Help Center (1 of 1)".
A few seconds later the error message
"Cannot connect to Proxy Server"
comes up with an OK-Box. Clicking OK terminates the entire update process, however TVSU continues to run properly and the process can be restarted with the identical result. This happens with Kaspersky Firewall on and off, no difference. Even rebooting the system w/o firewall and virus protection and starting afresh does not help either. Tried perhaps 15 times over the last 4 hours with same results. I assume that the error message refers to a proxy at Lenovo since in my local environment there is no proxy involved. The system is known to be free of viruses (clean installation yesterday and virus checked this morning).
Note:
The display/error message above were translated from German into English so the corresponding original English displays/messages may look slightly different.
Any ideas?
Regards from Germany...

I have discovered one other potential cause of this behaviour.
If your computer is attached to a Domain, ensure you are connected to the Domain using a profile that has administrator rights when attempting these upgrades.
I was using a local profile with administrative rights, on a network connection that was outside of the corporate LAN, and I was getting the "Cannot connect to proxy server" error.
When I connected to our Corporate LAN and logged on to the machine with an administrative profile, the Proxy Server error went away, and I was then able to connect and download my required updates.
Just an FYI if you are doing this inside a large, firewalled LAN running from Active Directory.

Huh, that's a new one...
Can you try Firefox in [[Safe Mode | Safe Mode]] to see if the problem goes away. I'm thinking it's an extension.
*Run ''firefox.exe -safe-mode'' in the search bar on the Start Menu. (Make sure Firefox is closed)
Have you added any new extensions recently around the time this started happening? Your system details shows the following:
*Adobe Acrobat - Create PDF 1.2 ([email protected])
*Anti-Banner 14.0.0.4917 ([email protected])
*Dangerous Websites Blocker 14.0.0.4917 ([email protected])
*Kaspersky URL Advisor 14.0.0.4917 ([email protected])

The backup that itunes performs does no include any itunes content ( apps/music/vids/etc).
You should have transferred any purchases to your computer.
If you failed to do this, then you will have to redownload:

Error message "unable to connect with server. Check wifi connection"

I started having the error message "unable to connect with server. Check wifi connection" when I attempt to use search function within a certain apps and when I try to download certain magazine (eg. National geographic). I didn't have this problem with I first started using iPad, and no problems with connectivity when using other apps. Can anyone help?

You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.
