Firefox 3.6 doesn't work with VMWare Virtual Machine Console Plug-in but IE does. Previous versions of FF worked fine. Will this be fixed in a new FF release?

When I try to open the Virtual Machine console I get the error:
Cannot access virtual machine console. The request timed out.
I had no problem with this until Firefox did an upgrade to 3.6 and now it doesn't work and I have to use IE to open the console.
I can see lots of other people have this same problem so am wondering when it will be fixed.

Look at this blog post for some work arounds for the windows version.

Try a different ringtone.
Reset or restart the device.

Need former version of Firefox. The new Version 4 does not work with my Kaspersky Passwd Manager. How do I download previous version?

I really need to use my Kaspersky.

If you are talking about 3.6 versions, Please read this thread and follow TonyE instructions:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/815246

I want to go back to 3.6 because 4 is dangerous and 5 does not work with essential addons and websites. How do I find previous versions to install?

The new major update cycle is way too fast. I want to get off. Please tell me how to uninstall 4.0.1 and reinstall 3.6.4 (MacOS-X). Reading up on the critical vulnerabilities for 4.0 convinced me that I don't need this headache. I've only installed 4.0 on one of my three computers (home). Wait! I see that 3.6.dmg is still in my downloads! Now, I just need to figure out how to uninstall 4.0!

Due to security vulnerabilities, rolling back to Firefox 4.0.1 is not recommended. Firefox 3.6.18 would be the safer choice.
Here's the process to roll back:
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.)
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 5.
You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

Firefox 5 doesn't support the Google toolbar? That's what Google says. I miss my Google toolbar. Will this be fixed going forwards? Thanks -

I'm just hoping the Google toolbar will eventually be capable of being installed on Firefox 5.

That is up to Google to fix.
The Google Toolbar '''7.1.20110512W''' version works in Firefox 5.0 by using the Compatibility Reporter extension, I tried it myself due to the large number of postings about GTB problems. <br />

Problem to connect to VMware virtual machine in VMM

I have a problem to connect to the VMware virtual machine console through the VMM Admin Console. I get the message "For a connection with this virtual VMware machine necessary ActiveX object is not installed. Would like you to install the VMware ActiveX element now?"
If I click "yes", IE opens. To the installation of this ActiveX element I've added the web access side of the VMware-Host to the trustworthy sites in IE. I've also disabled the strengthened security configuration for IE. But it did not help.
What can I still try?
Thx

The most common problem getting the activeX installed is that the VMware infrastructure web portal has not been setup completely. It is from that portal that the activeX is downloaded and installed. Ensure that the VMware infrastructure portal has been setup
and configured for SSL. The Url we attempt to get theactiveX from is https://HostName/ui/plugin/msie/vmware-mks.cab
Uhm, yea, that URL is invalid. Maybe it was for vCenter 3.x? or 4.0 only? Does not resolve on v4.1 :(
If you are having trouble getting the activeX installed there are a couple of workarounds. One workaround is to install the VMWare Infrastructure Client onto your machine where you are running the VMM Admin Console. The Infrastructure Client installation
installs VMWare's activeX along with its own client.
Tried that... it doesn't use ActiveX anymore (still 4.1) so no go :(
Another workaround is to login to the VMware Infrastructure Web Access portal and one time connect to a VM. This will also download and install the activeX and let it work.
Tried that... it doesn't use ActiveX anymore (still 4.1) so no go :(
So basically I need either the SCVMM guys to figure out to do this in the new version from vmware or I need some vmware experts to tell me where I can find this activex component...

Firefox 5.0 won't work with mcafee site advisor-will this be fixed soon?

When I downloaded firefox 5.0 it checks for incompatible add on etc. and it deleted mcafee site advisor which shows which web sites are safe to use. I went back to firefox 4.0 because it works with site advisor. I'd like to use the newest form of firefox, but want mcafee site advisor enabled. Will this be fixed?

It will work again if McAfee does a full update...

My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my emails. I can't seem to purchase this on-line as it keeps telling me to go to the app store. I haven't got the app store on my computer as I am told I need iCloud for which I need the new operating system, which I can't download or purchase as I am sent back to an instruction telling mee to go to the app store icon.
How difficult can it be to simply purchase the software on-line have it shipped to you so you can install it, in the event it cannot be downloaded as it appears it can't be based on my curent operating systems being Mac OSX 10.5.8.

Airplay does not work with slideshows and music - get the slides but no music with iPad Air2 and ios 8.1.22

iPad Air 2 with celluar with ios8.1.2 will not airplay with apple tv slideshows with music. I see the slides on the TV but do not hear the music. This works on the iphone 5s with iOS 8.1.2 and with my other iPad which is on iOS7.
This problem was reported on Nov 21, 2014 and other people had reported it prior to me.
When will this be fixed by Apple - it worked in the past and does not work now.
Should i return my iPad Air 2 and get my money back?

Problem seems to be resolved. Should have thought of it myself ;-) thanks so far!

I have a Virtual Machine with Windows 8.1 OS and 4gb RAM, 200gb Disk.
I want to develop apps for Windows Mobile 8.1 with VS 2013 Update 4, Mobile Emulators can work in my Virtual Machine, bcz i am getting bellow error.
Windows Phone Emulator is unable to verify that the virtual machine is running:
Something happend while starting a virtual machine:'Emulator 8.1 WVGA 4 inch 512MB.APPUSER' failed to start.(Virtual machine ID xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxx)
The Virtual Machine Management Service failed to start the virtual machine 'Emulator 8.1 WVGA 4inch 512MB.appuser' because one of the Hyper-V components is not running (Virtual machine ID xxxx-xxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx).

No you cannot do that. You need a physical machine that supports Hyper-V

I recently uploaded OSX 10.6.7 and ever since then, my Boris titler in FCP does not work with all the fonts, notably Avenir. It actually crashes FCP now. It was fine with the previous version. What's up Apple?

I recently uploaded OSX 10.6.7 and ever since then, my Boris titler in FCP does not work with all the fonts, notably Avenir. It actually crashes FCP now. It was fine with the previous version. What's up Apple?

I know what your'e going through, Gary.   OSX 10.6.7 is an absolute disaster.   Since I upgraded, I've had problems in FCP, Logic, Garageband, even issue dealing with peripheral hardware like external monitors.
Before 10.6.7 my system was running fine.
I've brought this up with Apple repeatedly.   They smile and shrug.   They've been helpful resolving the issues, but none of them has been easy to solve. I have spent days, dealing back and forth with tech support, sending logs, etc., before solutions have been found.
I wish I could give you an answer to your question.   My only guess is that Apple has totally dropped the ball on this one.   In the future they should provide a disclaimer when they offer an upgrade. Something like:   "Caution: all of your software may not function after this upgrade. But go ahead, you'll feel cool that your OS is the latest thing."
As someone who has been with Apple for close to 25 years, I'm disturbed by what appears to be an increasing sloppiness in their work.   This is especially disturbing when you depend upon their system to make your living.
Good luck.
