After most recent update, google maps will not load, i'm using cricket a600 USB on a dell inspiron windows 7?

I can use IE browser and Google maps loads fine. I can use my droid bionic as a hot spot (using Verizon 4GLTE) and Google maps loads fine. I can go to McDonald's and use their WI-FI and it loads fine. But my CRICKET a600 USB is worthless using Firefox 8. I need Google maps for my lively hood. Very frustrating. I don't care to use IE as my main browser..please advise. Thanks, STEVE in OMAHA, NE

well done ipodincalifornia and IlliniVishal!
(so this can sometimes work with a Vaio too? good lord.)
it might also be worth heading to the support pages for your laptop makes and models to check for any chipset updates or other updates relevant to the USB. i've seen some hints lately that some peculiar issues with USB on HPs could be resolved by a chipset update. (although those problems seem to present in different ways than a "Firmware Update Failure".)
love, b

  • After downloading latest quicktime update, itunes store will not load

    Has anyone had this same problem after downloading latest quicktime update. iTunes store will not load.

    This happened to me today as well post installing the latest version of itunes.   I did a search on google for the error and came across a recommendation to :
    Note: Start Windows in Safe Mode to complete any of the following steps if you're unable to access Windows normally due to the msvcr80.dll error.
    If, and only if, you're receiving the msvcr80.dll is missing error when you open Apple iTunes, do the following: (skip this step if your msvcr80.dll error is occurring with a different program)
    Uninstall from Windows the following five programs in this order: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, and finally Apple Application Support. If you have iCloud, remove it as well.
    Uninstalling these programs in Windows is done from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
    Note: Songs and playlists in iTunes will not be removed when you uninstall the iTunes program or any of the other, already-mentioned Apple programs. If you'd still like to back them up, they're usually located in the My Music folder in Windows.
    Download the latest version of iTunes from Appleand note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
    Run the iTunes installation as an administrator. If you're not sure how to do that, see How Do I Open an Elevated Command Prompt? for help. That procedure shows you how to open the Command Prompt program as an administrator, but the steps are essentially the same for anything, including the iTunes installation package you just downloaded.
    A general overview of removing and reinstalling iTunes can also be found here on Apple's site but the above procedure seems to work better in this particular situation.

  • Just yesterday I downloaded the newest update for iTunes, a few days before doing this I purchased music, but after doing the update my songs will not play. It shows a message that says this file cannot be located, what can I do to find the location?

    Just yesterday I downloaded the newest update for iTunes, a few days before doing this I purchased music, but after doing the update my songs will not play. It shows a message that says this file cannot be located, what can I do to find the location?

    The path C:\users\owner\appdata\local\apple\apple software update\bonjour64.msi cannot be found. verify that you have access to this location and try again or try to find the installation package "bonjour64.msi" in a folder from which you can install the product bonjour.
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on 25 June 2010. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Display changed/overscan not working after most recent update

    I'm running my mini through an LG 42" plasma TV using a store-bought HDMI to DVI cable, and I had the resolution at 1344x756.
    After I did the most recent update for what I assume was Leopard 10.5.7, my resolution and colour quality changed. Now with overscan on the picture is cropped and the dock is almost out of view when I hover over it, and with overscan off there is a black gap of about an inch framed around my screen. The only change ocurred after I reset the computer post-update. I tried re-installing the update and messing around with the cable connection to no avail.
    What are the odds that it was the cable? Is there anything you know of to roll back updates? Has this happened to anyone?

    I have exactly the same problem, on a Sony 36". With overscan on, I can't see the menu bar at the top of the screen, and lose a lot of the dock. By turning overscan off, and fiddling the display settings on the TV (altering area to -2) I can get it so it uses up more (tho still not all) of the screen, with all the bars etc.
    I could live with this, however it also seems to have screwed up the res. No matter what setting I use the fonts look fuzzy and hard to read. The tv screen was never quite as crisp as the monitor on our iMac, but I could read an e-mail without feeling nauseous.
    Hoping Apple will fix this....

  • After most recent update, Firefox keep hanging intermittently with "Not Responding".

    After the most recent update, my Firefox browser begins to hang intermittently with "Not Responding". I have checked the extensions and plug-in like Java, all of them are the latest updated ones. Everytime I open a new site or click on links to load another page, it happens. Every single time.

    '''is there a solution ''(temporary OR permanent)'' for this problem yet?'''
    i tried '''EVERY possible alternative'''; even when opened in ''''''safe mode'''''' or when installed for the first time w| '''NO addons or ANYthing else''' but the '''original default settings''', still does the same thing.
    mozilla people?? really?? no answer|feedback|suggestions, anything at all from u guys??
    if it isnt a version (browser, OS, addons, etc) issue, what is it that separates us from the users not having the problem?
    this is is very frustrating; h|e it's even more frustrating when there is no response from tech support. is it because there havent been enough people who have reported this same issue so there can be some interest & find a fix; OR is it that u dont know; OR that there is not & will not be any fix?
    we cant continue being users if we cannot use it. it's really my favorite browser, but if it doesn't work & u guys dont have a fix for it, then users w| this same problem wont have any other option but to switch to a different browser permanently.
    really mozilla??? nothing? a reply would be very nice...

  • Problems running java after most recent update

    After updating to the latest version of Java via Software Update a few weeks ago, I am unable to run the Java applet I need to run to log onto my scheduling system for my work. We use ClinixMIS software which is web based and appears to load a Java applet when I log in. Before the most recent update I had no problem logging in and I still have no problems logging in on older machines running snow leopord and earlier versions of MacOSX with previous versions of Java. When I called Apple and told them my problem the tech said it was because the version of Java is more advaced than the one Clinix is using. I asked how to go back to an earlier version and I was told I can't do it. When I tried to download and install an earlier version of Java the computer wouldn't let me do it. I am running the latest version of Lion on a 2010 MacBook Pro with a i5 processor. I tried Safari, Chrome and Firefox and nothing worked. Does anyone have any ideas or has anyone run into a similar problem? Clinix has not supported Macs in the past but when I talked to the guy they sent out to help with some other issues we are having he told me they had a "team working on it". That has been their response now for about four weeks.

    Get your IT people to talk to the ClinixMIS software developer and bring it to 2012 standards.

  • Most current update of Photoshop - will not open any of my previously saved files?

    I have the most current update of Photoshop CC, but it will not open any files that I have previously saved. They will not open if i use the Open command or if I try and open them from the folder. I cannot create new files either. Is there something I need to fix to get this to work again? I need this for work.

  • Adobe Premiere freezing after most recent update

    Hey all,
    I posted in here a while back because I was working with MTS files and seemed to be having an issue out of the blue with my projects freezing, where the video would play, but the cursor and anything I would click or move would not respond.
    I ended up transcoding to Prores and finished the edit. 
    BUT!!!  Even in the prores version this happened again, and I finally tied it to the universal counting leader.  Now I've used this thing many times before with no problems.  But since the most recent update (I'm now running CC v8.1.0) this keeps happening!  If I have the leader in the projects window and the timeline (or just the projects window) it's starts to freeze and behave like this.
    I'm not sure if it's only isolated to the universal counting leader, but if I delete it from my project, save and reopen, everything runs smoothly!
    Anybody have this issue or know why this is happening since the update?
    Thanks.

  • After update finished-browser will not load on user site

    i upgraded to firefox 4 from 3.6. when the upgrade finished- the browser will not load on one of my user sites. the upgrade froze half way through and the computer restarted on that site. no matter how many times i try to finish the upgrade, it gives me the same results- the browser will not load even though the upgrade window tells me it is finished-every time i try to open the browser window it never comes up

    I googled my problem and found myself at some place with a link
    This was not an Adobe Forum.
    I clicked the link (legitimate) and the update was perfect.
    When I first went to adobe to update , it failed. Gave me some error thing.[ I never update from a popup.]
    Only from the real website. I tried to get help from chat and they referred me to the forum where I guess you found my question.
    I hope this helps someone. All is good now.

  • Firefox crash on startup after most recent update?

    Once Firefox installed the most recent update, it will no longer open. It attempts to open, but immediately crashes and the crash report opens. I have tried to uninstall (deleting profile as well) and reinstall, but it continues to crash. This is the most recent version of Firefox, 8.0 I think. Pleeeease help, I hate IE.

    No. None of those are the issues. I had already gone through a lot of the help stuff before I posted this.
    And as I explained earlier, there is no crash ID listed that I can see.

  • Basic sites (google, youtube) will not load, and intermittently, images on forums will not appear without clicking refresh multiple times, what is wrong?

    Some sites and images will intermittently not load or make me click "try again" several times.
    For example, a forum with a picture thread will not load the pictures, even if they are from multiple reliable hosts.
    Also, I can attempt to visit youtube and must click try again several times to reach the site.
