  • User system gets freeze / Hang when he opens a file from SharePoint. But in chrome it works fine.

    Hi,
    This is the only USER who is facing above issue. But when he hold CTRL key and click on the file. It works fine. We are using IE 8 32 bit. Please note it works fine in IE 8 64 bit. 
    Could you please advise why it happens? Is this something share point admin should resolve or TECH SUPPORT should take care this issue?
    Thanks
    srabon

    There will be something odd setup in his IE settings. Get him to try to connect from another machine which also uses IE 8 32bit, the problem shouldn't be present there.
    That means that the issue is down to his local machines configuration which generally puts it under the tech support / desktop support teams purview.
    To help them along, blow away his cache and reset any of his settings you can find to the default.

    What kind of advertisement?  In Adobe Reader?  Can you post a screenshot of that: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933
    Regarding the crash, can you try disabling Protected Mode through the registry: download, unzip, then run the registry script https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/49eeb48b-07c5-4502-984c-8a25259914fa

  • My iMac suddenly no longer connects to wifi network when in KIOSK (username) mode, and only connects when as ADMINISTRATOR mode. Its strange because the iMac has been working fine in KIOSK mode for over a year until 2 days ago.

    My iMac suddenly no longer connects to wifi network when in KIOSK (username) mode, and only connects when as ADMINISTRATOR mode. Its strange because the iMac has been working fine in KIOSK mode for over a year until 2 days ago.

    One of the memory cards was indeed faulty, and the other completely fine
    Thanks very much for all your help!
    Although there is one little thing that I've noticed. The iMac works properly, but I tried to software update to see if that may help my Minecraft sound issue (as I still don't think only having 2GB instead of 4GB would cause such a problem) but the software update application won't work. Running the "Software Update" from the apple menu on the toolbar gains no response, nothing happens. If I run the software update from  system preferences, the application icon appears for a second, then disappears (as in the blank app. icon, the blank canvas with the pencil, pen and ruler in the bottom right corner). It does this every time I try to run it. It did work when the computer was crashing, but this started when on one of the occasions I ran the app. while it was crashing. Since this occured during the crashes, and still occurs now, I'm wondering did something simlar happen minecraft, as it's sound disappeared during the crashes and is still gone now.
    However, the computer is now working again without crashes, which is the main thing, thanks for helping me fix the issue
    Edit: I would mark the topic as solved, but I'm unsure if this would lock the topic or something simlar, so I'd rather leave it open for any ideas regarding the software update and Minecraft issues I'm having

  • In Preview, when I add text annotations to my PDF (lecture note slides), they look fine until I close it and reopen it, and then they are rotated 90 degrees. How do I fix this and keep it from happening again?

    I have the same problem with lectures slides.
    Furthermore, sometimes the text box, when doube-clicking, turns  the text into a one-liner. Causing the text box to sometimes get 3. times wider than the pdf itself.

    By pressing [cmd + I] the Inspector opens up and clicking on the rightmost tab 'Annotations' you should be able find those Annotations again. I do this regularly to find the empty annotations I accidentally create while clicking through slides.

    Are you using a Microsoft or Apache web server? If so, you can submit to a server-side script, which will bypass web mail and client-side email software such as OUTLOOK.

    You are in the iPad forum.
    Open your Applications folder - find Safari in the applications, and double click on the icon in there. You may have a corrupt alias in the dock at the bottom.

    Hi,
    CTRL+P requires manual tab focus when printing a PDF within FF4. This worked fine in FF3 - i.e, you could just select the tab. Why does it not work any more? Thanks!

    There are other things to try.
    Turn WiFi off on the iPad, restart it and then turn WiFi on again.
    Reset the network settings on the iPad. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings, that makes you have to start all over again.

  • OK 4 a week. Now Firefox hangs when setting a bookmark from dropdown only. Bookmarks OK if I right click empty part of page. New WIN 7 64-bit PC. 16GBram Fix?

    I have not tried resetting Firefox 31.0 as I do not want to lose any of the thousands of bookmarks. It also hangs forever whenever I try to go to the bookmarks drop down just to go to a bookmark or even "Show all bookmarks" to create an exported .html file to back them up in case I lose them. When I do a complete and proper uninstall of Firefox 31.0, I am never asked to keep the personal files and settings as I had been in the past with previous versions of Firefox. I downloaded the latest freshest copy of the install file from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/products/download.html?product=firefox-stub&os=win&lang=en-US and installed it again and all the defaults and bookmarks came up just as before my uninstall. The problem still persists IE 11 and the latest Google Chrome installed on this same PC do not have this issue. What could have caused this and how do I fix it on a brand new PVC that all these browsers were working fine on for over a week until two days ago I started experiencing this with Firefox 31.0?

    ''''' "When I do a complete and proper uninstall of Firefox 31.0, I am never asked to keep the personal files and settings as I had been in the past with previous versions of Firefox." '''''
    That option upon uninstalling Firefox was to '''"Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations"''' - not to "keep" it. Regardless, that feature was removed from Firefox recently.

  • Firefox Crashes and Hangs when opened and wont work in safe mode

    I use a mac OS X 10.6.7
    I have tried to follow your guides but I have been unable to stop firefox from crashing. I disabled all the apps via safe mode and the programme still crashes.
    I type in about:crashes but only had time to get the last crash details

    Thanks for the note about profile locations.
    I deleted mimeType.rdf in my existing profile, still have the same issue - can't view Tools -> Options for the Applications tab, or download a file. Same goes for a new profile - the same issues arise.
    Firefox never does crash, I can leave it in this hung state for hours (I left it in a 'not responding' state last night and it was still hung this morning).
    I was going to add a screen shot to this post but Firefox hung when I clicked on the 'Browse' button. Perhaps this is an issue when FF tries to interact with my directory structure? Does that get us any leads on what's wrong?
    FYI, I currently have my antivirus disabled & not running in the task bar just in case that was interfering somehow.

  • How do I stop Firefox looping from crash to start when it won't stay up long enough to enter into?

    Ever since the latest update Firefox hasn't worked properly. It has the MyPoints latest toolbar attached to it and allowed me to view it then suddenly vanished. After that it started this open/crash loop that is so fast I can't click into the browser to try safe mode or to even access the toolbar. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled. Everything got worse and the MyPoints toolbar suddenly reappeared. A lot of extraneous programs were downloaded without my permission and it's taken days to uninstall all of those. I'm on a refurbished Windows 7 HP and just finished ALL the newest Windows updates. Tried Firefox again, same problem. Unless I can actually access Firefox (the mouse is supper sluggish when trying to click in the Firefox browser as if the browser is preventing access) I can't do any of the "fixes" suggested in your support forum. I have uninstalled and re-install Firefox about 4 times now but nothing changes. Yes, I deleted the Mozilla file in "programs". I can't do a screen shot because of the inability to access the window in the time allowed before it crashes and there is nothing to see but the opening window - no error messages. No crash report comes up. Just an endless loop of open/close/open/close etc.

    Are you sure you didn't get an unofficial installer? You may need to visit the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program. After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help surface innocent sounding bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
    Then, to ensure that your program folder is not contaminated, I suggest:
    '''Clean Reinstall'''
    We use this name, but it's not about removing your settings, it's about making sure the program files are clean -- and do not contain alien code files. As described below, this process does not disturb your existing settings. Do NOT uninstall Firefox, that's not needed.
    (1) Download a fresh installer for Firefox 37.0.1 from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ to a convenient location. (Scroll down to your preferred language.)
    (2) Exit out of Firefox (if applicable).
    (3) Rename the program folder
    ''(32-bit Windows folder names)''
    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    to
    C:\Program Files\OldFirefox
    ''(64-bit Windows folder names)''
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    to
    C:\Program Files (x86)\OldFirefox
    (4) Run the installer you downloaded in #1. It should automatically connect to your existing settings.
    Any improvement?
    Note: Some plugins may exist only in that OldFirefox folder. If something essential is missing, look in these folders:
    * \OldFirefox\Plugins
    * \OldFirefox\browser\plugins

  • Firefox 37 keeps crashing, Plugin-hang...aplication error message, & won't let me update Adobe Flash player

    Ever since I updated to Firefox 37 my Firefox has been crashing. It started only doing it periodically, then it got so that if I scrolled down a page it would close. Then it got to the point where as soon as I opened Firefox it would immediately crash every time. I ran antivirus and Super AntiSpyware and rebooted, but it only let me into Firefox, nothing would load up. They only way I am able to be on right now is through my computer's "safe mode".
    I have tried repeatedly to update Adobe Shockwave Flash Player, but when I click "run" the box disappears and nothing happens from there. It just won't update.
    I am on a Windows XP computer which, as we know, is no longer supported by Microsoft, but am I really this SOL?
    All scans say I am clean, BTW.
    I am afraid to reset Firefox because if I can't update the flash player now, who can promise me I will be able to get anything back if I reset Firefox?
    I am moments away from getting my hammer and having a meeting with my computer in the backyard, if you know what I mean. Please help.

    Thank you so much for responding. I appreciate your help very much. There are TONS of these reports without "BP" in front of them. Most all reports are without a "BP" in front of them. They take forever to load from Archives and once I do get one loaded I can't locate a "submit" tab anywhere.
