Download doesn't in full speed if not using Firefox window.

In FireFox Version 4.0, the download is not in full speed if I am not activating a FireFox window.
Did I miss-setting some option on FireFox or Window 7?
I need to keep working, or at least moving my cursor, on a FireFox window in order to have full speed download and download window statue update. Otherwise, the download is almost in idle.
Now I can not download a larger file and, leave my computer alone or even work on other windows.

Thanks dmcritchie,
Nice effort but that answers a different question about fixing the add-on Yahoo toolbar.
Pernich and I want to know; If you type search criteria directly into the address bar and hit enter, how to change that search engine from Yahoo to Google.
Otherwise I too will go back to using Google Chrome, even though I really like FF8.0
please help

    Let me rephrase in question.
    locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/88761 - please edit your original question instead of starting a new thread <br/>|<br/>
    I installed Firefox 6.0.2 on a Windows Server 2003 box. This box is a terminal server with 9 users that are going to use Firefox. The other users are going to use IE. When asked to reboot now or later, I chose Later. After sometime I rebooted, the message "you need to reboot in order to complete the install" reappears. Over and over again. Can not uninstall (same message) Can not open Firefox (same message) Many reboots using various users, the same results.
    Help!

    The question appears to relate more to the OS than be a firefox problem, but as I have never used Windows Server 2003, I am unable to help.

  • Why can I get a full Yahoo window using Safari but not using Firefox?

    I've suddenly lost the Yahoo website when I try to access it using Firefox, but access works perfectly when I use Safari,

    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies do the following:
    #Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], choose History, and then "Clear Recent History...".
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the "Clear Now" button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • File, Send link doesn't open a new email. Using Firefox 11.0. Outlook 2010 is the Mailto default and W7 default email program. On the About:config page network.protocol-handler.external.mailto is set to regular font (not bold) "default Boolean true".

    File, Send link doesn’t open a new email. Running Firefox 11.0. Outlook 2010 is the Mailto default and the W7 default email program. On the About:config page, network.protocol-handler.external.mailto is set to regular font (not bold) “default Boolean true”.

    I assume you have tried toggling the setting in Firefox between Outlook and, say, Gmail:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Applications
    In the search box, type or paste '''mailto''' and pause for the list to filter.
    Change the setting and OK to save it, then return to the dialog, change back, and OK again.
    You also might want to toggle the setting at the OS level between Microsoft Outlook and the native Windows Mail client in a similar fashion. In Windows XP you could use IE's Options dialog, Programs tab, for this, but I'm not sure in Windows 7.
    Since one possibility is a problem in your Firefox settings (including the possibility of interfering add-ons), and another is a problem at the Windows level (e.g., Registry settings), it would be useful to try to identify which one it is. One quick way to distinguish is to create a new Firefox profile. It will start up with all factory settings. You can switch back to your existing profile after testing.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    After closing Firefox, start up again in the Profile Manager as described in this article: [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles Managing profiles].
    With the new profile, can Firefox successfully create a message in Outlook?

  • HT1926 cant download itunes.  message says digital signiture not valid.  windows 7 system

    i can not download itunes to this system.  keep getting a message that the digital signiture is invalid for apple.  any  ideas?

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Can not add pdf files to my e-mail-it just grinds on a 851kb file (11kb worked)not using gmail. windows xp. recently wnld java update.

    downloaded some java update for downloading support from Ontrack. SInce then firefox will not attach pdf files to my e-mail. not using g-mail, using yahoo. Windows XP. It will add small files (11kb) but just grinds on a 851kb file and never attaches it.If I choose to unclick "enable java" - the "attach files" box disappears from the attach files menu.

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

  • Firefox crashes every time I open it and try to go between pages, I can not use firefox, help

    I converted my new computer from an old one about a week ago.
    Every time I open Firefox, it either crashes immediately or once I try to go between pages it crashes. I get a window that says Firefox quite Unexpectedly. Apple Care worked on this with me.
    We opened Firefox in Test Mode, the crashes did not happen.
    I would like to use Firefox, it is much better than Safari, but not being able to get help for Firefox; I have no choice.
    I don't know how to submit information to Mozilla, therefore I have no crash ID.

    With Test mode, do you mean starting Firefox in [[Safe mode]] ?
    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")

  • Because of your intolerance of "dissenting" views, I have uninstalled and will not use Firefox.

    "Mozilla believes both in equality and freedom of speech. Equality is necessary for meaningful speech. And you need free speech to fight for equality. Figuring out how to stand for both at the same time can be hard."
    But only your form of "equality," I guess.
    Why this would be an issue to a company that intended to employ it's original creative force is beyond me.
    I will not be using firefox or any Mozilla products.

    Restricting the beliefs of your employees does not protect the web. It has the opposite effect.
    Looks at your facebook page. I did not see a single post support Mitchell Baker's position. She needs to go.

  • You keep sending an update but it cannot download. our e-mail account was compromised while using firefox.

    an update announcement is sent, we accept and it never loads from your end.
    we also had an e-mail account compromised while using firefox.
    I just updated adobe flash and it worked for safari but not firefox. why so many issues??

    Hi David,
    Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
    Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

  • Download Full CS5.5 not using Cloud

    Where can I download CS5.5 without going through Cloud. I don't want to ugrade to cloud. I have a CS5.5 registration key which was purchased in 2012 and have just upgraded my computer but no longer have the downloaded CS5.5 files.

    if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-5-direct-download-links.html
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

  • Audio doesn't play full speed

Please help. This happens to all of my projects even previous ones that haven't been opened in forever. I have a huge project due and I need this fixed. Please help!

    Welcome to the forum.
    While it may seem like we are clairvoyant (if you read through all the truly amazing problem solving threads), we really can not see your computer or read your mind.
    As much as I love 20 questions, you can short cut things by telling us all about your computer system, the media you are working with, your version of FCP, QT, OSX and what you have done to solve this little problem.

  • LR Mobile: Downloading images for Offline Editing stops when not using device (iPad).

    Hi everyone,
    I'm using Lightroom Mobile on my iPad and I'm having issues downloading my galleries for offline editing. I'd like to hit the download button and leave my iPad for a couple of hours while a couple thousand photos are downloaded, however, as soon as I turn off the iPad and walk away for a bit of time, the sync seems to stop. Case in point: I started it last night before going to bed, left my iPad plugged in, and when I checked it this morning, it had stopped after 50 or 60 photos. It resumed as soon as I turned the iPad back on, which was still in the app.
    Anyone else experiencing this? Is this a problem/limitation of iOS or a problem with the app? Any thoughts?
    Thanks.

    Yeah, Lr mobile behaviour isn't particularly friendly (I'm being very diplomatic) when it comes to off-line editing. The issue is of Adobe's making. So, don't go upsetting the folk at Apple ;-) Best you set your iPad so that it doesn't switch off. Once everything is downloaded you can set it back to auto switch off (assumes you remember).

  • Downloading music from existing ipod to computer not using iTunes

    I was told from Apple tech support I would be able to find help here. I need to find a third party download source to download my iPod to it and then upload all of my music to iTunes. Long story short - original computer died, new computer won't recognize my iPod and it's musice - hence tech support and third party download software. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how did you resolve?

    There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews and comparisons of some of them here:
    Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
    Comparison of iPod managers
    TuneJack Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    SharePod Windows Only (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod2PC Windows Only
    iDump Windows Only
    iPodRip Mac & Windows
    YamiPod Mac and Windows
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows

    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content only from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    There's also a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to a Mac or PC. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available on page 2 at this link: Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide
