When trying to login to hotmail, I get message asking me to select program to read default.apsx file, i.e. firefox will no longer open hotmail; ; this just started yesterday

I can't login to hotmail and read my email because after filling in the login and password it now states it needs to open the default.aspx file from http://sn120w.snt120.mail.live.com and asks me what program to use to open the default.aspx file.

Hotmail is rolling out a server change at their end which might be causing this problem. Mozilla has spoken to them about it and they are trying to fix it. I won't be able to provide you a time estimate by when it will be solved but hotmail/mozilla is certainly looking at this issue.
I will let you know if get any updates!

  • Suddenly Can't Open PDFs. Starting about three days ago firefox will no longer open any PDFs. I get a blank page in a new tab.

    Suddenly Can't Open PDFs in Firefox. Starting about three days ago firefox will no longer open any PDFs. I get a blank page in a new tab. Nice timing, with finals and everything where I need to view PDFs of practice tests.

    Mozilla Firefox did not do their job, here. I am an editor and am constantly online. Now, I have to go to Safari to download PDFs. I reinstalled an earlier version of Firefox to get rid of the problem, but somehow Firefox has deactivated my PDF download feature. This is a total wreck and I am so angry I could spit. Stop launching new products until you have fully tested them. Customers are not your guinea pigs. Please fix this now- and fire a few idiots on the way- the ones who let this happen.

  • HT1349 What to when trying to download an app and get message "could not sign in, An unknown error has occurred"

    What do you do when trying to download an app from App Store and get message: "could not sign in, an unknown error has occurred."

    Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.

    > Look in your User/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If you find it there move it to the HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder and reboot. Then try iPhoto again. That may save you having to go thru the reinstallation.

  • My Firefox will no longer open a new tab when i click on it or when i use the shortcut.

    I have tried looking through all the setting that it gave me and i can not find when it wont let me open a new tab. All the settings i have are the default settings and before it happened i hadn't even been into the setting so its not like i was messing with them and then it messed up it just happened one time. I do not have any viruses or anything because i use 3 different virus scans and they say my computer its clean. Also my virus scanning programs are up to date i updated them today.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • IPad 1 will not download apps. This just started. Looking to get the weather channel.

    Having trouble downloading a app. This problem just started. It will let me go into the app store but comes up blank. Trying to get the weather channel.

    Have you tried logging out of your account via Settings > Store and logging back in and seeing if that makes any difference ? You could also try a reset and see if they download after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    If an app is over 20 meg in size then you won't be able to download it over 3G, you will need to either use wifi on your iPad or download it to your computer's iTunes and then sync it across.

  • Firefox will no longer open on my Mac. I have tried downloading the new 7.0 but it does not prompt movement to the application folder. How to I make it work?

    I have tried multiple times to update the firefox7.0. It appears to download fine but I never get a prompt to move it to the applications folder. Now Firefox will not open at all (it was functioning sporatically over the past several months). How to fix?

    AFAIK cameras offer their own built-in format utility for inserted SD cards.  You should use that.  Otherwise, refer to the manual that came with your camera to determine precisely how your SD cards need to be formatted to work properly.  Personally, I'd suggest Partition Scheme: MBR, and Filesystem: FAT32.
    Try to limit the number of formats you perform on the SD cards, though, as you're reducing their lifespan.  I believe formatting causes re-writes to a portion of the SD card that has fewer read/write cycles than the rest of the card as a whole.

  • When I open my browser, within a few seconds I get an "iGoogle" screen that comes up and I don't know why or how to exit it. This just started yesterday.

    I click on Mozilla Firefox, which I've used for a several months. It opens as expected and then. within a few seconds, an "iGoogle" page opens. It has no apparent exit. I've tried to right click and Esc. I've tried a power cycle a few times and thhe same thing occurs. I don't recall doing anything to initiate the display of the page.

    Check the Home page setting.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • Just installed Windows 7 + Firefox 7 when trying to play 'Discover Windows 7' first Silverlight plugin msg then Plugin Container has stopped working came up..although Firefox will play videos on You Tube..any ideas?

    I've tried checking Silverlight plugin in 'Add-ons' seems to be fine but will not work in Firefox

    In order to find out about the problem I have restarted another fresh install but inside a VM this time so I can take notes and snapshots.
    I found that the following official package will break my Gnome 3.6 pretty easily:
    - pygtksourceview2 : this one instantly crashes Gnome and you are no longer able to log in.
    - pycups  and pysmbc : doesn't crash immediately but after 10s you get the oops.
    Let's remove them from the real install to see if it fixes the problem.
    [EDIT] Tried again to install the above three package inside a fresh Gnome install living into a VM and it didn't crash. See post above regarding my broken Gnome which was related to fingerprint-gui package from AUR.

  • I updated to V4 but firefox will no longer open when I click on the icon. I can see that the process has started, but there is no browser display. Stopping the process and trying again does not work. Please advise

    Prior to updating to V4, firefox worked perfectly with all my existing applications. After I updated it will not launch a browser page, even though the process is shown to be operable in the Task Manager. The same problem occurs on start-up of my computer, so there are no previous processes running.
    I cannot launch the broswer at all so cannot try clearing the cache etc or other suggested troubleshooting solutions.

    In the Task Manager, make sure to check both the Applications tab and the Processes tab. On the Processes tab, Firefox may have two different components running: firefox.exe and plugin-container.exe. Well, in 3.5.11, it would be only the first one.

  • Firefox will no longer open and I can not get the profile manager to open either. What do I do?

    I tried to open firefox this morning, and it would not open. I tried to uninstall and reinstall several times and even deleted all of my information. I looked it up on your site, and it said to open the profile manager. I followed the directions on how to open it, and it too will not open. I tried several times to open it as well. I need help. I only use firefox and have for years, and I have never had this problem. What do I do?

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that 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 internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

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

  • I can not open my email in hotmail. I can open hotmail, see the fact that I have emails but it won't allow me to open them. this just started 2 days ago and has always worked before . I can open using IE and Google Chrome

    I found I could not open my email within hotmail. Hotmail itself works in IE and Google Chrome so I know it is FF. I can open the account but not individual emails nor can I delete junk mail. Nothing within the hotmail window seems to work.

    This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • When I start Firefox a plugin update page keeps opening. This just started. How do I turn it off.

    When I start Firefox my homepage and now the plugin update page open.

    This issue was caused by a bug to blocklist plugins and that has been fixed.<br />
    You can correct this issue by forcing the file blocklist.xml to update or wait until Firefox updates the blocklist.xml file during the next hours.<br />
    That update will remove the severity="0" flags in the file that had caused the problem.
