Firefox install on windows vista home machine seems to hang up about 2/3 of the way thru

installing from setup 13.0.1 / seems to be hung up about 2/3 of the way thru / system is vista home edition / machine is toshiba L355-57915

Hi,
Please try right-clicking on the Firefox installer and '''Run as administrator'''. If the problem persists, you can try to include the installer and its processes as fully trusted/allowed in any security software before starting the installation. You can also try to temporarily disable the security software for a few minutes. In this case you may also have to include the newly installed Firefox + sub processes in the security software configuration before starting Firefox.

Hey,
if you know the name(s) of the root folder(s) you want to access (eg. by making a note on the Windows side) then you can make them appear by just doing Shift-Command-G in Finder ("Go to Folder…"), and entering the full path to the required folders. You can then navigate all the contents as normal.

When downloading Windows Support Software from BCA, download freezes at about a sixth of the way

When I download the Windows Support Software from BCA, the progress bar freezes at about a sixth of the way through. I took my MBP to the genius bar, and they told me I should use a USB drive instead of a DVD, but even when I use a USB the problem persists. I've even tried saving it straight to my Windows Partition, and the same thing happens. I've seen many people with a similar problem, but instead of getting something like "The Windows Support Software is not available", my download just freezes. I tried to uncheck "Auto Proxy Discovery" in system preferences, but it already was. I also heard you could use the drivers on the SL installation disc, but I have a late 2011 MBP, which came with Lion, so I don't have an install disc. Does anybody else have the same problem or a solution? Any help would be appreciated.

Oops, sorry. I meant to say Release Preview, not Consumer Preview
Like I said before, the progress bar just freezes when I do what http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4407 says. Also, that article was for an MBA late 2010, but I have an MBP 8,2 (late 2011). I don't think that makes a difference, though. The only thing I actually need the drivers for is for the wifi card, which W8 RP doesn't seem to detect. I tried looking for BCM4331 drivers on the internet, but apparently, broadcom doesn't let you download their drivers, but anyways, thanks for the reply.
This is exactly where the download always freezes, about a sixth of the way through:

HT4889 I am using migration assistant from my old macbook pro to my new imac, but it seems to have stuck about 1/3 of the way through. Any suggestions??

Both are on the latest version of MacOS (made sure I had them completely up to date before starting).
Laptop and imac are connected via ethernet cable. Has been stuck for at least 2 hours showing "About 3 hours and 12 minutes remaining". Not sure what to do??

Disconnect and connect your Ethernet cable. If the migration doesn't continue, restart both Macs and start the transfer again. Wi-Fi and Ethernet are slow so I don't recommend you to use it unless it's the only option you have

Did a fresh install of Windows Vista and Premiere CS5 and now Premiere is buggy!

Hi everyone. I was using Premiere Pro CS5 on my quad core system editing AVCHD clips just fine and then I had to do a fresh install of Windows Vista Home Premium. I then did a fresh install of Premiere Pro CS5 on a separate hard drive and opened up one of my AVCHD projects. Now, for some reason, the same AVCHD projects that played fine before are now jittery and also show blocky artifacts. The jitter seems to be a constant jitter every second and the blocky artifacts seem to happen mostly when the subject in the clip is moving. I know the problem isn't in the original clip from my GH-1 camera because if I play the original clip that is on my hard drive, it plays just fine so, it has to be Premiere CS5 that is causing the clips to play all jerky on the timeline. Can someone please help me solve this problem? One more thing, when I reinstalled Premiere CS5, I installed the latest update from Adobe. I didn't have that update installed before when the clips played fine. Could that update be the culprit? Thanks.
My clips were recorded using a Panasonic GH1 HDSLR camera and are 1080/24p (progressive).

As far as I know, you thought wrong
My 3 hard drives are configured as...

2 - 320G WD Win7 swap file and PPro projects

Hp pavillion a6500f product#KQ495AA-ABA windows vista - home premium 64 bit Won't boot

Hi - I cannot boot my desktop hp pavillion. error message says put in an installation disk - don't have. and also says file 32/boot missing or corrupt. tried recovery group of three disks but doesn't do a thing???? Don't want to loose data what is best route to take? thanks

Hi xbill,
What is the exact message you have?
So far I understand you have a corrupted windows vista with an error message mentioning a missing or corrupted somthing32 file.
Your data should not be impacted at the moment (based on what you wrote).
What you may want to do at the moment is get a windows vista home premium 64 as it may be used to recover the missing/corrupted file(s).
An external hard drive to backup your files and finally a bootable CD to allow you to start your machine to backup your files.
But the first thing we need before we go any further is the exact error message.

Dreamweaver CS3 hangs on "initializing files" in Windows Vista Home Premium

Hi,
Anybody else encountering this issue? I noticed this7 error
in Windows Vista Home Premium. When you launch Dreamweaver CS3, it
opens the splash screen, displays “initializing files”
and thats it.
Necessary Troubleshooting steps we’re already done to
attempt to launch/fix the program but to no avails.
seems the problem happens on acer computers with 4 gigs of
ram.
You can check it from this
Thread
Thanks! I hope someone from engineering can take a look at
this issue!

A little more on this topic with solution ...

10.1.4 in Windows Vista Home Premium

Why do my downloads from websites open as blank windows? Please answer in simple terms as I am not very computer literate.

I find your tone quite unhelpful and high-handed, particularly as I said I wasn't computer literate. I don't really know how to even begin to answer your questions as I don't really understand them.
I am trying to download some personal financial data from a pension company's website and all it says is that I need Adobe Reader in order to view it. I have downloaded Adobe Reader 10.1.4 (as far as I know, successfully, as it appears in the list of Programs in my PC's Control Panel) but when I click on "View" on the pensions website, all I get in return is the opening of a new window which is completely blank.
Is this understandable enough for you?

I have been downloading Mountain Lion for MAC for over 4 hrs. and it seems to be stuck about 2/3 of the way through. I have a I mac that is only 2 yrs old has 8 GB memory and I updated all software, checked utilitie for any disc repairs andbacked up everything before I started this process. Can someone tell me what to do Right now the version is OSX 10.6.8.

Let it go... these DL's take forever, depending on the spped of your connection and the traffic on the servers.
If by morning it is still sitting there restart and the DL should pick up from where it left off.

I get no browser home page; no favorites/bookmarks; no back buttons; no tools, etc. just a generic Firefox bar with preset sites which go nowhere when clicked. I have windows vista home premium. Firefox works fine on my desktop

Upgraded to latest Firefox version on my laptop w/ Vista Home Premium and get no browser page; no back buttons; no bookmarks/favorites; no address bar...nothing like a typical browser page...all I have is a cumbersome Firefox bar that has preset sites that do nothing when clicked.
FF worked fine before I "upgraded". Want 3.5 back
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about 5 days ago

I followed your instructions and installed Developer Suite 10G on Windows Vista Home Premium edition. I have Oracle 11G DB running on the same machine.
Two points, Steve:
1. When I tried to set the maximum virtual memory to 6110 an error message displayed from Windows and told me that I can't set the maximum virtual memory to more than 4096. I set it to 4090 and it worked and I got nothing wrong during the installation process.
2. After installing JInitiator and disabling Java on Firefox I called the http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet page and everything seemed to be OK because the Oracle Forms Services logo appeared and then a successful installation message appeared , but as I clicked (ok) to continue a gray screen appeared inside the browser (like the one displayed when you try to run a Java applet inside a browser) and then I wait to death till something appears but sadly nothing. I just get a blank gray screen inside my Firefox browser.
Do you have any idea what to do to solve the problem?
Regards

Windows Vista Home Prem SP1, iTunes 76, after install, refuses to launch

I have just resinstalled Windows Vista Home Premium to a 1 yr old Acer 5610 laptop.
Installed Vista SP1.
Downloaded and installed latest (v7.6.something) iTunes and let it do the full, all apple media installation. It seemed OK, showed his music, let us reactivate the computer and loginto iTunes store.
But now, one day later, when he starts computer, it refuses to lauch when iTUnes is clicked. just acts as if nothing was happening.
So tried to uninstall iTUness and planned to do a reinstall, but now the uninstall has been running 30 minutes and seems to be doing nothing.
Any thoughts on what is going on here?
Should I force the uninstall by using a 3rd party Uninstaller tool?
Should I download iTunes + Quicktime separately as EXE and run the installer again (I have downloaded it (57MB) to my Mac and plan to take it over to the Vista laptop on Monday when i am there again).
Any other thoughts on why it worked once after the install and now has gone silent?
thanks!

Well that's weird that it quit working. Was that the first time the PC had been restarted since a lot of stuff got installed?
The uninstall shouldn't take more than a min or so.
Use the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Tool:

Norton or other security software can cause that, there are several other reasons too...

Can I instal SAP Netweaver 2004s trial on windows vista home premium

Hi ,
Can I install SAP Netweaver 2004s trial on WIndows vista home premium. Please advise.
One more thing is I am not able to download the Trial version from the SAP's FTP site. Because ftp is blocked in our company. Is there any other site from which I can download the trial version. Please advise.
Thanks,
Sam.

In this Forum it appears that Windows 2000 with SP4 will work as well (haven't tried it).
If you've got VISTA you could consider running the trial on a Virtual Machine. Parallels, and vmware offer commercial vm products for generating Virtual machines whilst Microsoft (Virtual Pc2007) and VBOX offer Free virtualisation products. Vmware also provides a FREE vmware server virtualisation product --this works fine as well although no multi-media support. However if you only need the Virtual Machine to run the Netweaver trial then that's no big deal.
As I've posted elsewhere a Win XP pro Virtual Machine using only 512MB of RAM will give quite adequate performance of the ABAP trial. Don't even THINK of the Java edition unless you've got at LEAST 2GB - even on a Virtual Machine.
Cheers
Jimbo
