Firefox very slow loading most pages, sometimes error message :"can't find server for......." ....."

Firefox is very slow loading pages, some pages never load, sometimes error message stating "cannot connect to server" Router is not an issue I don't think as other computer connected to it has no problems. Used Malwarebytes to clean up problems, only 5 found. Internet Explorer does not have the same problems.

The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
Try to decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 256 to 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

  • Firefox does not load web pages; it always says 'can't find server' on every page I try to load

    Firefox 'can not find server' reply comes up on every page I try to load, including my home page. I have to retry or refresh 3-4 times before it takes.

    Sounds like a proxy server issue.  Go to System Preferences... > Network
    Select the AirPort from the left hand side
    Click on the Locations combo box and select "Automatic"
    Click on Advanced
    Select the AirPort tab and enter your network name
    Select TCP/IP tab. 
    Configure IPv4 Using DHCP
    Now click on Renew DHCP Lease.  After a few seconds you should get an IP address (probably 192.168.x.x)
    Click on Proxies tab.
    Select Auto Proxy Discovery and Use Passive FTP - de-select all other options.
    Click on OK and Apply, etc.

  • Had to uninstall Firefox, now I can't reinstall. Get error message "Can not find archive file." Please help!

    I believe I had some kind of virus attack. I got everything cleaned up. (I HOPE) In the process of cleaning the virus, I unintalled Firefox because it wouldn't open. Kept getting the error message that Firefox was already open and I had to close out of the sessions or restart the computer. After restarting the computer several times and not being able to find any open sessions in task manager, I uninstalled. When trying to reinstall, I get the error message "can not find archive file." I've tried downloading Firefox from cnet as well as the Mozilla site to no avail. Please help. I'm getting tired of using Chrome already!

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • My computer crashed necessitating re-install of op sys and all programs including iTunes. At the iTunes store when I click a song in my library get error message "can't find, do you want to search?" What's happening? How can I listen to my library on this

    My computer crashed necessitating re-install of operating sys and all programs including iTunes. When I click on a song in my library I get an error message "can't find this song, want to search?" What gives? How can I listen to songs in my library on this computer now?

    It is working now. I no longer get the message about the item not being available in the US and I can access the store.

  • New Firefox Very Slow Bookmarks all gone restore not working Can I get them back?

    Woke up today to new firefox update installed. Now Firefox VERY slow & all of my Bookmarks are gone as well as Bookmarks Toolbar empty. IE runs fast like usual, but Firefox barely loading.
    Tried Restore from available dates, but all come back unable to process.

    Some of you will want to shoot me; Mozilla may yank this reply. BUT I had the same problem for about a week, struggled in vain, poured over the help section and got 3 replies to my posted question. Nothing, absolutely nothing worked.
    Want to know what solution I finally came up with? '''''CHROME.'''''
    It imported my precious bookmarks from IE and FF. I'm going to uninstall IE now and leave FF as an emergency backup browser which I don't expect to need anymore.

  • After loading Acrobat XI, Facebook pages have errors.  Can't find what changed in IE8.  XP OS.

    After loading Acrobat XI, Facebook pages are blank with errors.  Can't find what happened to IE8.  XP OS.  Any suggestions?

    I agree. The Facebook failure must have been coincidental in that machine.  I have a notebook that I loaded the same Acrobat into and it's Facebook is OK - It's on Win 7 OS.  This laptop's (XP)  Facebook works, but it doesn't have the Acrobat loaded into it.  Also have a networked desktop for business on Win 2000 and it's Facebook works too.  Haven't tried another browser in the suspect machine yet.  There's definitely something wrong with it's IE8.  What it boils down to in it, is that it won't logout of Facebook properly. I have to logout on some other machine.  Then when I login on the bad one, Facebook only partially loads it's pages and I can't logout from it.

  • Open itunes get error message, can't find iTunes folder! & doesn't open!

    Hi, I have Downloaded iTunes but it some how has installed itself onto a USB pen drive that I had connected at the time. I have unplugged this and downloaded iTunes again...which seemed to go ok but when I click the iTunes icon an error message appears ' Cannot find iTunes folder, this is normally located in the My Music Folder' and will not open iTunes. I plug the USB pen in and it works fine! I have tried to copy & paste the files on the USB pen but it doesn't copy them properly...can anyone help?

    Hello mvguillet,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing the latest iTunes update.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    I understand that you have already uninstalled iTunes, but when you get to this step, it is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the link for that step.

  • I can't update itunes. I get error message can't find "itunes.msi". What can I do?

    What can I do to download updated itunes. I get error message can't locate "itunes.msi." folder.

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
    After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp. Restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • When loading firefox i get an error message, "can't find ////jpsnotify.exe. now firefox loads but every time i go into anything else it appears. this started to happen when i downloaded a new verison of java.

    i downloaded a new version of Java and i then started getting "windows can't find c:\java\jre6\lib\deploy\jqs\ff\..\..\..\bin\jqsnotify.exe. now this only happens when loading firefox. it happens through out the use of firefox when loading other programs. any suggestions?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Try re-installing Java. See [[Using the Java plugin with Firefox]]
    A quick search for jqsnotify.exe on Google indicates that it is related to the Java quick start option.

  • Error Message Can't Find Error Message

    I am not the most Tech savy person, I reviewed the posts and don't believe any could help. I have an Ipod Classic (160 gb). My libary is on an external drive since the laptop does not hold sufficient memory for the music and the movies. When I attempt to sync my IPod Classic the process begins and about the one thousandth song, the sync stops. I am informed that certain files cannot be located. (I am provided a list) and then that a folder called "LUIS IPOD" could not be found. I have located all of the music on the hard drive and I have manually directed itunes to where the music is in the library folder, but the problem persists. I have tried to locate the file "LUIS IPOD" and I have found nothing. I have gone to ADD/REMOVE Progran and had Itunes repair itself. I have restored the Ipod and that has not helped. I have restored the back up and that has not helped. I am at a lost of what to do.

    Hi, Dave & Dave -
    Wow, that took longer than I thought. I have been back for a couple of hours, and spent that time running the uninstall program, and then going to users/library/VirtualBox and deleting that folder, and its contents. Next I downloaded a fresh copy of VirtualBox from the Sun website, installed it on my computer, then ran the VirtualBox set up (setup the settings) and then clicked on the start icon. After the splash screen, I once again got the same error message. I repeated that routine at least three time, all three times I received the same message.
    I then got the bright idea to go into my time machine and went back to several days after I had installed the program previously (March 25, 2009) and retrieved both the program from the application folder, and the vb folder from the user library, restoring them to my present computer state. After all, I thought, if it worked on March 25th, those files should work now. DRAT, I was wrong, Got the same message at the same place in the startup routine.
    So, Dave and Dave, after a little more futzing around, I'm now back to the same place I was when I first posted about my problem: My win xp disk will still not mount. ****!!!

  • Can't play any songs from iTunes, error message "can't find"

    I just got an iPod as a present (I'm behind the times) and I put songs on my iPod from some one elses computer. The problem is, now none of the songs on that persons computer will play, I get an error message saying, "the song [insert song name here] could not be used because the original file could not be found." My iTunes is fine, but my friends computer is not!!! Is there any way to fix this, I really hope i didn't just delete all their songs (I didn't even put most of them on my iPod).
    Thanks for any help!

    Your songs might be taking up too much room in your iPod.
    Open iTunes, right-click on a song. Make sure the song is no bigger than 4 MB and it's a MPEG file.
    Also, in iTunes, click "Edit" and then go down to "Preferences". Click the 'Advanced" tab and then the "Importing" tab. Make sure your songs are encoded using AAC Encoder and a high quality setting of 128 kpbs.
    If your song information is different from what I just told you then this is the reason why your songs won't fit in your iPod and there's not enough room.

  • Loaded latest version of itunes now can't find device for ipod to enable dragging tunes?

    Hello remslicer, I just did this and it seems to work, I had the exact same problem and I just read what to do on another users reponce,
    I re-set my phone
    hooked up the phone to my computer,
    let it do its syncing, 
    then I went to podcast page and un-sync and I did this with music as well, and hit apply.
    go back and re-sync and hit apply again.
    I went to the app and it started playing the podcast I have saved on my desk top.
    I  hope this works for you too. Good luck

  • Error Message: Can not generate mask for the LMB peripherals

    Version 11.3 I actually figured it out, its rather odd that the generate addresses button doesn't do this automatically. It appears that the mask was set to trigger use of the cache on a single bit.  0x00800000.  I had enough devices added where automatic address generation was using the most significant bit meaning that bit was falling within other address spaces. I changed it to 0xFFFFC000.  (Basically telling it to match addresses if all address signals above 16KB are zero).  I don't know if that is the proper way to do it, but it accepted it.  Now I'm fighting with some stuff regarding an FSL bus I added that apparently isn't quite properly setup, so I haven't found out yet if the processor likes that address mask.   But the tools appear to like it.
