FF 21.0 Does not recognize Quicktime Plugin for new users

Running OSX 10.8.3 on a late 2012 27" iMac. For some reason FF will not load the Quicktime plugin for a newly created user. It fails on two different iMacs and both OSX 10.8.3 and OSX 10.7.5. It does load the plugin for users that were created before FF 21.0 was installed. A very strange problem.

There has been a change in where Firefox searches for plugins and the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder is no longer scanned for plugins, so Firefox won't find them anymore if they are installed in the plugins folder instead of the "browser\plugins" folder that Firefox now scans.
You can set the plugins.load_appdir_plugins pref to true on the about:config page to make Firefox scan the "<install>/plugins/" directory for plugins like the WMP plugin (np-mswmp.dll).
You can alternatively move plugins from "<install directory>\plugins\" to "<install directory>\browser\plugins\" to make Firefox find them again.

  • The voice mail does not come as attachment for new users

    Hi,
    We have installed the unity 7.0 as the unified messaging, the existing exchange was 2007, everything was working fine, now we have got exchange 2010, and the new users to be added are in the new exchange 2010, but in the same container. so we tried running the permission wizard, it went through, we noticed one thing during the permission wizard at the step where we select the mail store (screen says select Mailstores exchange mailstore) I do not see the 2010 server.
    Please let me know what are the things need to be done on unity and exchange if we are moving from the exchange 2007 to 2010.
    Regards,
    Lal Mohammad.

    Hi Lal,
    There are very specific instructions on how to migrate to Exchange 2010.  If the steps are not followed precisely in order, Unity will not function properly:

  • TS1286 iTunes still does not recognize or see my new iPod when I plug it in.

    I have done everything Apple suggests several times and iTunes still does not recognize or see my new ipod touch 5th generation. Can someone please help me with this.

    Did yo try everthing here:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    including
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Do you have iTunes version 11?
    Does it charge?
    Does it appear in My Computer?
    To help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem try another computer;

  • One of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message.

    I connected my sons Ipod Touch to my pc and it worked fine. Now, when I try to connect my iPad the following message comes up: One of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message.
    I checked the cable. It surely is not the cable. If I connect the iPod again it works fine. If I use the same cable with my pc and ipad at work or my other son’s laptop, it is working perfectly. It is only on my laptop where the iPod was connected. Something tells me it got something to do with the drivers that went corrupt or something when I connected the iPod.
    I searched the internet and I see a lot of people gets this message. Still no solved answers yet. Is there a place where I can download the drivers again or any other suggestions?
    Windows 7 and iPad 2
    Kind regards,

    I was hoping it would be something like a USB device conflict, but now the shuffle is the only thing connected...

    Under Part 9. Verify that USB drivers are installed, did you try the steps in If only "Unknown Device" appears?  That appears to be your situation.
    Also, you said that the shuffle initially worked well enough to do a sync, then it had the same problem again.  If you can get it to work again initially, before doing anything else, try the following.  Select the shuffle in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES.  Over to the right, go to the Summary tab.  By default, the checkbox for Enable disk use should be unchecked.  If so, check it and Apply the change.  See if that makes any difference. 
    (If Enable disk use was already checked, try unchecking it and Apply the change.  Basically, set it the "other way" and see if there is any improvement.)
    NOTE:  When disk use is enabled, you have to eject the iPod in iTunes before disconnecting it physically.
    If the disk use change makes a difference, that may provide a clue about the actual cause.

  • I upgraded Elements but now it does not recognize Option key for Clone Stamp, Healing Brush etc.

    I upgraded Elements but now it does not recognize Option key for Clone Stamp, Healing Brush etc.

    Quit the editor, then relaunch it while holding down command+shift+option. Keep holding down the keys till you see a window asking if you want to delete the settings file. You do.
    It wouldn't hurt to repair permissions, either.

  • Photoshop CC does not recognize my plugins

    I'm on a Mac. Photoshop CC does not recoginize my plugins that I had in CS5 like Silver Efex Pro, Topaz plugins, etc.  How can I fix this? I tried copying the plugins from the Plugins folder in Photoshop CS5 to the Plugins folder in Photoshop CC but that did not work.
    Thanks, Tom

    You will have to get the proper CC compatible updates from the plug-in vendors. This behavior is intentional, since incompatible legacy plug-ins will crash the program otherwise.

  • My computer says it does not recognize the cable for my 7th generation ipod nano

    Whenever I connect my ipod nano to my computer a message appears that says, "USB device not recognized; the last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it". I have already installed the latest edition of Itunes and any recent Windows updates, and none of the support steps from the Apple site seem to be helping. The Itunes program and the rest of the computer appear to be working just fine. My computer is a HP laptop that is about 1 year old, and I use Windows 8. The ipod nano also doesn't even turn on, although it is likely that it is simply not charging when it is plugged in. Is there any way to solve this?

  • Firefox browser does not recognize Java plugin in 64 bit Linux

    I am running Firefox12 on RHEL5 with Java6u31 installed. Unfortunately firefox will not recognize the java plugin. I have tried linking it in the appropriate directory (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/760718?e=es&as=aaq) and I get nothing. The only feedback I seem to get is that when I go to this website: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ it tells me that Firefox has "disabled my version of Java because it is outdated" which is total BS because I have the latest version! Typing in "about:plugins" only shows the flash plugin (which is in the same directory !!!!)
    Java used to work in my browser and flash works fine and I've been trying for ages to get it to work again and I'm at a loss.
    Doesn't anyone else have this problem ??????????

    6.32 is the latest, check it in : [http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp Verify Java Version]
    if update to 6.32 probably you have no problem.
    thank you

  • Mail does not recognize email address for Address Book marked as "Company"

    I have a bunch of Address Book entries with "Company" checked and no first or last name. After the SL upgrade, entering the name of the company into an email in Mail.app does not result in it recognizing the company as a contact, or using the saved email address. Oddly, if I edit the contact so that it has a first and last name, even if Company remains checked, Mail will come up with the correct address. Any explanation or work around for this?
    I also noticed that all of such contacts, after the SL upgrade, no longer had the Company box checked, resulting in them all being listed as "No Name" -- but I fixed that by rechecking all of the boxes.

    Hi murrxx,
    Based on my experience, it just cannot send to the un-recognized email address. The remaining recipients will recieve the email.
    Please changing to OWA to verify whether all the mails cannot be sent.
    If in OWA, just the un-recognized email address cannot be sent, it should be an issue on the Outlook Client side.
    Please run Outlook under safe mode for testing.
    Also try to re-create new profile to refresh the caches.
    Is there NDR returned back to us when we cannot send emails to all?
    If has, please post the details.
    Please also collect some related event logs for the further troubleshooting.
    Thanks

  • Mail does not recognize outgoing server for Forwards or content other than text

    Since installing Mountain Lion Mail has been erratic.  It generally will not send mail that I Forward nor will it send mail that includes links, graphics photos, etc.  It sends original mail consisting of text only without a problem.  When I try to Forward mail, or send new mail that includes content over and above text, I get the following result:
    None of the options will send the mail.   If I “Try With Selected Server”, I go into an endless loop – click on it, get the same Cannot Send… window back.  “Try Later” merely puts the message into my Outbox where it sits – and sits.  It will sit there for days if I let it.  If I sooner or later try to send it, I get the above Cannot Send… window again.  If I “Edit the Message”it still will not send. The Connection Doctor tells me that the mail account is logged in and connected without a problem.  If I “Edit SMTP Server List” I get Mail Preferences – the edit SMTP list window – and no SMTP servers listed – blank list.  Yet the Mail account has the proper iCloud SMTP server in its set-up.  Moreover, text only emails send without a hitch.  I can readily send them before, during and after the “Cannot Send…” window pops up for an email that has other than text included in its content.
    Interestingly, if I put the problem email into my Draft mailbox and then go online and log-in to my iCloud account, I can then open the email in iCloud online and send it – and it sends without a pause or quibble. Why won’t it send through Mail on my computer???
    NONE of this happened in Lion.

  • Workitem exists in SAP Inbox But does not appear in UWL for some users

    Hi,
    We have a peculiar problem with a standard workflow. This workflow is working fine in SAP Inbox and UWL in portal for most of the users. But sometimes, it does not send workitem to UWL for some users.
    Any input of as why this happens?

    Hi All,
    I had experienced this type of problem as well, just to share it could be that the Identity of the Portal user misses a role which can be solved by any user assigning the identity in their identity management or it could also be the connection status of the UWL to the backend, there should be at least two connection statuses for workflow items to get into the UWL I could not recall it but I would post it here once I have the access to our system again.

  • Blackberry Desktop Manager for Mac does not recognize any Calendars for syncing

    ive installed the blackberry desktop manager for my Macbook and hooked my phone up through the USB port when I started the program and when I go to the calendar section it says "There are no calendars available on this computer for syncing.  Please launch a new iCal and create a new calendar".  How do I fix this?  I have a lot of information on my iCal that I want transferred over to my phone, but it won't recognize the calendar in the program.  Help

    I'll try to help...first you did not provide any pertinent information for troubleshooting:  Mac OS, device, device OS...
    Now before you do anything go to iCal>File>Export and create an iCal archive (JIC).  The rest is dependent on the OS (as each store iCal data differently)...It is possible that your calendar file is not where it should be.  Try cleaning system and user cache. Restarting your mac and repair permissions.
    On the device side, what do you have as the default CICAL?  You could try forget device in the DM or trash the user>username>application support>BlackBerryDesktop folder and start over.
    Now do you have more than one calendar?  In the DM how are you setting the sync?  Two Way, All Calendars...to what calendar are you adding on the device?  Under Advanced Settings are you selecting All events and are you Replacing all calendar events on the Blackberry device?  Remember that even if you have multiple calendars in iCal they will sync as one in the BlackBerry.

  • Adobe Indesign does not recognize FONTEXPLORER X for indesign cc.pln as a valid plug-in.

    I got this error after installing Indesign CC 64bit  and font exploer x on Windows 8. After unistalling both apps a couple times then re-installing i loaded some additional
    fonts via font explorer then activated them and started a document and the fonts where available despite the message below.
    Just wondering if anyone has seen this type of an error before? So i selected no to show the message again.
    And everything seems to be working font finder in IDCC shows the fonts are there as well with no errors.
    Just wanted to know if this is normal in this version of Indesign where plugins are concerned.
    I have run every version of Indesign and CS and never seen this issue before.

    I did install the previous font x version 2.3 and then updated it to 2.6 i think it is. Because the previous version did not have indesign 3.5.1 (CC).
    After the install the plugin option was there for CC 3.5.1
    I will contact font explorer in the morning to find out more.  This is a new laptop with fresh install of indesign CC and font manager.
    Thanks for the tip.
    Cheers
