FF 16.0.2 won't work with proxy server

My school district requires using their proxy server. Suddenly FF 16.0.2 no longer will connect to the proxy server, despite all settings configured correctly in System Preferences. Firefox prefs are set to "use system proxy settings". I've also tried Manual proxy settings, and Auto-detect proxy settings for this network. All of those options used to work just fine.
I CAN successfully connect using Safari 6, so it's not the proxy server itself (Safari only uses the System Preferences proxy/network setting).

  • Java won't work on proxy server!!!!

    My company has recently implemented a proxy server. After this, all websites that use java don't work anymore. I have Web Proxy and Web Secure Procy configured correctly but when I enter a Java website I'm asked for user, password and domain, and even with this info the site won't open. Any ideas???

    I have the same issue. We have important print production software that depends on Java running in a browser and it has stopped working with 10.5
    This means that I cannot deploy 10.5 in a print production environment.
    All our web traffic goes through our IIS proxy, and when accessing a Java site I get prompted for an NTLM password. It does not accept any valid passwords, but just re-prompts over and over. The same version of Safari on 10.4.11 works fine with Java as long as all the updates are loaded.
    Proxy access in Mac OS X is continually an issue for us, as the current version of Safari cannot access any https sites through our proxy either. I've been forced to install Firefox for users who need access to https sites (which is almost all of them).
    We've had issues with our IIS proxy on and off since way back at 10.3 where proxy support would go between working and not working with various patches. This, coupled with the fact that NTLM authentication is much more intrusive on Mac OS (with constant prompting and hassles with the keychain) than on Windows, causes major support headaches for us. I've tried various workarounds with using Authoxy and Squidman, and various keychain settings, but I'd prefer it if the system's built-in IIS proxy support would work better.
    It's very frustrating because our IIS proxy has not been significantly changed in over 5 years, but our Macs go from working to not working continually as patches are released. Very poor.
    I would love for this to be looked at at Apple, as Mac OS's own proxy panel does not even have as simple an option as "use this proxy server for all protocols" as found in IE on Windows or Firefox on all platforms. This means separate entries in the keychain for all protocols and a huge mess to support.

  • Apps won't work through proxy server

    At work I have to connect through a proxy server. Safari works well but none of my apps will connect or update. can anyone help please.

    They are probably blocking the port the apps are trying to utilize.

  • Local EPM Excel Connection not responding when working with proxy server.

    Hi All ,
    We were working on a server . Due to some issues we had to use proxy server to connect to the Backend.
    But the Local Connections that were made in Excel to log in via EPM Tab is no more working.
    Is it something related to Proxy Server.
    In that case , how to configure the Local Excel Connections.
    Regards,
    SHUBHAM

    Hi Andy ,
    When we connect to EPM Office Add in link in Web Admin , We get basically 3 options, out of which we choose connect EPM Office Add-in for Excel. But that option is not coming. Rather it asks to install EPM addin, while it has been already installed . This problem has been present for a very long time .
    So in case of Connecting to  Excel Interface , if this option was fine then we could have easily gone to System generated link in Web Admin to connect to EPM Excel interface. But since this option isn't coming so we had to go through making Local Connections.
    But given the Proxy server settings the earlier Local EPM Excel Connections are not working.
    Regards,

  • My Viewsonic monitor won't work with the Imac using the Mini Port to DVI adapter.

    My Viewsonic monitor won't work with the Imac using the Mini Port to DVI adapter. I also tried the HDMI to DVI adapter ane the Mac-Mini with same result. The monitor does work on my older Macbook Pro that has the DVI connector. Is it a Software/Driver issue ?

    Should be extremely simple, please carefully read Connect multiple displays to your Mac. If you still have problems then it's probably a cable issue that would be resolved by replacing the adapter cable. You should be using this adapter. If you are using a third party adapter that might be your problem!

  • New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

    New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

    No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
    A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    You can get 10.6.8 here:

  • I would like to update to Firefox 5.0.1, but I can't due to, too many things won't work with the version & will be disabled.

    I have wanted to update from 3.6.22, to 5.0.1, but can't do to the following reasons: I can't due to, too many things won't work with the version & will be disabled. They are: Microsoft. NET Framework Assistant 1.2.1, Iconix 3.90.1, HP Detect 1.0.5.1, Yahoo! Toolbar 2.3.5.201101200332202 (I don't care about Yahoo! Toolbar, because I don't use it!). As soon as these issues are fixed, I will be able to update, to the latest versions. These issues should be fixed & ready to work, before a new version is available. Thank you!

    Try using this extension to force compatibility.

  • FM transmitter won't work with my iPhone

    I bought a Premier FM transmitter from Auto Zone the other day. It has a 30-pin connector with an led panel that lights up when you connect it to an apple device. It's suppose to work with all 30-pin devices but doesn't work with my iPhone 4 (iOS 7.1.2). I have tried it with my iPod Touch 2g and two other iPhone 4's that belonged to my friends, and it worked with all three devices. Any explanation why it won't work with mine?

    "the Middle East" is a really big place. I suspect you bought a gray market hacked phone. Call Apple Care and give them the serial number. Maybe they can tell you if it's locked and to what carrier.

    The Utility transferred all of the AE's settings, so I still have to change the password, which leaves me with only 2 other questions, I think:
    1)  I assume it's just a matter of using the Utility, entering a stronger password and checking for it to be remembered in Keychain Access.  But do I have to  change the password for each individual unit-- the TC, the Extreme and both Expresses-- or will changing it just for the TC alone work for the entire network?
    Resetting the password you will need to do for each device... the utility cannot even see those old units.
    So you will have to do it for each one.. think it through.. because as you change passwords the others will lose connection.. so start from the express which are wireless extending .. change those first.. and go back up the chain.. as each one changes it will drop off the network.. until you reach extreme and change that. Then you might need to reboot the whole network to get everything talking again. If something goes wrong.. just pluck that one out of the mix and plug in ethernet.. reset and redo the setup. That is my preferred method anyway.. do everything in isolation one by one. By ethernet and then nothing goes wrong.
    2)  Who's the treasonous SOB who spilled the beans to you about the ICBM in my back yard?!?
    N.Korean hackers.
    [Edit] Whoops-- one more question:  I want to partition the TC's disk, but Disk Utility doesn't see it.  What do I need to do?
    You cannot partition a network disk. And apple provided no tools for it in the TC itself. You can pull the disk out and partition it but that voids your warranty. (although done with care who is to know).
    Look at Q3 here.

    Mixing TM and data on the TC is worth planning carefully. They don't necessarily sit happily together.

  • RoboHelp for Word installed from RoboHelp 10 won't work with Word 2010

    I have a Help project created in RoboHelp for Word 8.  I recently upgraded from Word 2007 to Word 2010 and discovered that RH8 for Word won't work with Word 2010.  So I purchased RoboHelp 10 and have installed RoboHelp for Word from it.  Alas, RH for Word STILL won't work with Word 2010.  When I try to open my project, I get this message:
    Before I bought RH10, I live-chatted with an Adobe sales person who assured me it was compatible with Word 2010.
    BTW, I tried to roll back to Word 2007, but I was getting weird behavior running Word, so I have reinstalled Word 2010 and want to stay there.
    Any ideas?

    I have just installed Rh10 for Word on a new machine and initially I got this message.
    I wonder if you have followed those instuctions? I changed the setting to Enable All.
    The other possibility is what do you have set for the default version? If it is 2007 and that no longer exists on your machine, then Rh will not be able to proceed. The dropdown should show 2010

  • Outlook Email script won't work with Reader 9.1

    The attached form was designed in ES 8.2 and has worked fine with Reader 8.0. The "properties defaults" tab is set for Reader 9.0 or better. However, upon recent upgrade to Reader 9.1, the Outlook Email script stopped working. I'm new to Livecycle and scripts and was hoping that someone had an easy fix?

    okay thanks. One more question. What script is used to activate the "read receipt requested" function in Outlook?

    Interesting .....it sounds like an issue in Reader. From a code perspective everything is good .....the code tells Reader's email service to communicate with the mail client. This could be where the issue is.
    You may want to post your question on the Acrobat forum and see if they know of anything .....or you can report the issue to Support and have them look into it. Maybe something was introduced into the 9.1 version.
    From a Designer perspective all is good.
