At various websites, I am constantly getting a "Stop Script..." error message. From that point I have to use the task manager to close firefox. Why????!!!!
I realize that websites now have a whole lot of extraneous stuff running, but this is getting ridiculous. This is a powerful pc with a fresh install of windows 7. These damn "stop script" messages are ruining my browsing experience. It gives me two choices, continue or stop, but neither works. I can't get rid of the error message and I can't close firefox. I can't do anything except call up the task manager and end the program. The last time, even after that, the damn website was still playing in the background after firefox had closed, and I had to force a restart on the computer.
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

anyone else getting a timed out error message when trying to check for updates via the app store software on a desktop?
Hi, couple of things to try...

Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

I was recently trying to upgrade to mountain lion through the app store. I have unreliable Internet from a cable company whom I will not name, but we all know who they are. My Internet dropped while downloading the upgrade. Once I went through the notorious unplug the modem/router and plugged it back in to gain Internet connectivity again, I could not resume. No matter what I did, the app store kept displaying "an error occurred." I am hoping that those with the same issue read this first to save them hours of skimming through the Internet to find a solution. Here are the steps to take:
1. Make sure you have reestablished Internet connection
2. Chances are you got frustrated when you tried to resume/unpause the download and clicked the "X" to the left. If so, select the "Store" drop-down menu from the App Store and select "View My Account." There should be an option to unhide your purchase. You know what to do.
3. There is also an option to reset all warnings for buying and downloading under "View My Account." Do this, click "Done," sign out of the App Store and quit the App Store.
4. Open the Preferences in safari and select Privacy. Select "Remove All Website Data." Just do it.
5. Launch the app store and sign in.
6. Now, if you "Check for Unfinished Downloads" everything works peachy.
I hope this helps. Not much I can do for your Internet connection though.

Hello, iam using the latest version of firefox, whenever i login into my yahoo mail account i get a stop script error, the details of the error script is mentioned below , please suggest how to stop this
the website is www.mail.yahoo.com. i was getting the same STOP script error every now and then in firefox 6 as wellI have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6. -
Why am I suddenly getting this message from a page I have been using for 6 months(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer) how do I get my page back?
Did you reset Firefox recently?
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems
If that is the case then you may have lost intermediate certificates that were stored in the cert8.db file in the Firefox profile folder.
Check out why the site is untrusted (see the Technical details) and if this is caused by a missing intermediate certificate then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
Some firewalls monitor secure (https) connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
*Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
*Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer.
You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane. -
Can't get iphone to recognize itunes on my computer. do i have to use the original cord to connect? i can't find the cord. please advise.
Do you mean that iTunes doesn't recognize your phone when you plug it into your computer using the usb to dock cable? If so, see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538. (And yes, you need to use the usb to dock cable that came with your phone. If you dont' have it you'll have to buy another one.)

Question
My screen opened, and with every click the page (letters/images) got bigger. I can not get it to return to normal image size. I have to use the slide bar to read across the page. What do i do to correct it back to normal size???Hi jholzworth,
It sounds like you might have accidentally hit the zoom button. Try hitting ''CTRL + 0'' to return it to normal size. Just so you are aware, ''CTRL'' and ''+'' will zoom in and ''CTRL'' and ''-'' will zoom out.
Hopefully this helps! -

I'm getting an error message saying that "iChat can't communicate with the AIM account __"
I'm getting an error message saying that "iChat can't communicate with the AIM account __" I don't know what to do because google.com isn't coming up either...Please help!
Hi,
For any AIM valid Name (AIM, @mac.com or MobileMe) go to the IChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts
Select the account in the list then in the Server Settings tab change the port from 5190 to 443
Also try it without the SSL option.
(Go to the Account info tab to select the Use this Account option to Log in).
Do you mean you have a GoogleTalk account of some kind ?
One based on Google Mail accounts (@gmail.com or @googlemail.com) should have talk.google.com listed as the server in iChat (Server Settings for your Google Account)
There are Other Google accounts (Non Email) that can have Talk Enabled and these do connect to a server called google.com
Both these forms login to the Jabber servers involved on port 5223 and use SSL
It is possible with Google though to also change this to port 443.
(Other Jabber servers will not allow it)

Today, after having published my website without difficulty for years, I got an error message saying that the file format was unrocognized. Anyone have any suggestions.
You need to give some more info.
How are you publishing your site - iWeb FTP or another application? If the latter, is the encoding set to Unicode (UTF-8)?
Who is giving you this message - the server? -
When opening Firefox I get a Java Scripts error message and Firefox will not always open
When opening Firefox browser I get an error message from JavaScript Application: "TypeError:components{cid} is undefined. Sometimes the Firefox browser will not open; sometimes it does. Very annoying!!
RichardThis can be caused by an add-on that says it is compatible with Firefox 4 but isn't quite compatible. This thread has more information: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/729606 Javascript pop errors stating: TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help].
Does that help? -
Mail mail was working fine for months but now I keep getting an error message every time my computer shuts down or even goes to sleep. I get the exclamation point error and when I try to reconnect it always falis. My internet connection is fine and nothing else is losing connections. The only way to fix it is to shut down mail completely and restart which fixes the connection every time, but it's getting really frustrating have to constantly shut down mail and restart it just to use my email.
Bump ???

Why do I get a "script error" from flash player when it is not installed separately? It is part of my browser--IE 11
Same error message, I disabled tab mix and made sure I only have the newest version of Java, restarted firefox, now it seems to be fine no error yet on Pogo games or pictures upload to ebay which were the biggest problems besides hanging. I had also had disabled AVG secure search yesterday but that did not solve the issue. Now I will try to add back in AVG search...I have very few adds ons, also the note embedded about re- installing a toolbar went away, my old one did not work with FF4, so I installed Yahoo toolbar but the message still did not go away until I applied this fix. Hopes this helps someone..

I get an IE Script error message when trying to down load Flashplayer 11
Error message:

http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html
If the problem persists, please let us know what OS and browser you're using. Also, are you using any third-party AntiVirus or Internet Security products? The 127.0.0.1 address points to your local machine. This indicates that something is getting redirected back to your local computer (typically because the web content itself is being re-written as it comes in). Security products and malware both tend to do this.
