    Uninstall the Inbox Toolbar, following steps here:
    http://toolbar.inbox.com/faq.aspx?faqid=2876&faqmod=WST_Install#1
    Then retry opening Firefox.
    You can also try opening Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] (use Continue in Safe Mode first).
    If that works, reopen Firefox Safe Mode, but use the dialog option to '''Restore default search engines''' as shown at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode#Safe_Mode_window and press the '''Make changes and restart''' button.

  • My iphone 4s is connected to wifi but it won't access the internet

    My iphone is running on iOS7. It says it's connected to wifi but I can't access the internet. Some apps work like mail and facebook but that's it. Everything else says theres no connectivity. When I turn it off and use 4g they work. I've tried everything from turning off the wifi to reset settings. I don't know what the problem is. Can anyone help?

  • MacBook 10.5.8 Web Browsers won't access the internet

    Please help.
    Apple genius were no help.
    On my home wi-fi I find that very often I can't access the internet on Firefox, Safari, Chrome etc. It just freezes out and drives me bonkers. It's nit the home wi-fi as iphone still opens pages no problem.
    Really frustrating and if I wait ages or turn off computer it usually fixes. Happens every day.

    Hi.
    In Preferences - > Network, click on the VPN account you've set up and then the Advanced button. This should bring up your Options pane. Uncheck "Send all traffic over VPN connection" and then test your connection and internet access. If it works, then you've successfully enabled split-tunneling. If it doesn't work, go back and check the VPN settings. If the "Send all traffic" is once again checked, it's likely that the security policy of the VPN server is forcing all your traffic through the connection.
    If that's the case, all you can do is contact the administrator of the VPN server and request that your settings be changed.
    Good luck!

  • New Install - Can access the internet but not with Web Browser

    I just installed Solaris 10 11/06 with my new Ultra 20 M2 workstation. I can ping, complete NSLOOKUP commands on public domain names and can telnet; however, when I try to use the browser it says it cannot connect to the internet. I made sure of the following:
    - Web Browser is not using proxy
    - resolv.conf is accurate
    - defaultrouter is accurate
    - hosts, hostname.. are good
    - netmasks is fine.
    Any thoughts? thanks for your help.

    Is there a firewall between the server and the internet, try telneting the fully qualified domain name again but on port 80 (or 8080) (i.e. telnet www.yahoo.com 80), do you have another machine on this network that can access the internet through a browser (if so check it's settings) also if you have an intranet see if the browser can access that, if these don't work then the problem is settings\config in your browser.
    also try a traceroute and see where the packets are routed and how many hops it takes.

  • HT201270 I can access the internet, but i have no signal. Checked with provider, all fine on their end... Help please!

    I hav a new sim, and the provider (vodafone) said there is no problems on their end. I can use the internet, but cant make calls or texts or recieve them either... please help

    Thanks for your help firstly.
    No I don't have any firewall that I know of that could affect the Desktop app.  I have reviewed the link you sent across and the results are as follows:
    1. Make sure you can connect to the internet.
    Yes, internet is all good... no problems here.
    2. Make sure that you can access secure sites:
    Yes, I can access secure sites as tested by the example in the list (https://www.adobe.com).
    3. Check your hosts file.
    Test successful after going to: https://lm.licenses.adobe.com
    Moving on to reset the hosts file...
    I've followed the instructions and I get to "Select the hosts file and open it".
    If I simply double click, then the default is to open in TextEdit.
    Once open, I go to find File > Save As, but it only says, "Save a Duplicate" and then once I save a duplicate, I don't know where to save it because the Save window only shows the basic folders and I don't know how to get back into the /etc folder from the Private files.
    More instructions please, if possible?
    Thanks again

  • My computer cannot access the Internet, but my iPad can...

    My computer cannot access the Internet; it keeps saying "a connection timeout occurred," but my iPad is connecting fine.  I'm running OSX 10.8.2

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.

  • Problems after downloading the lastest version of iTunes for my iPod Touch. Now whenever I switch on my laptop and access the internet I get an error message. 2nd time this has happened and I'm fed up trying to fix it. Anybody having similar problems?

    I've downloaded iTunes 10.5 onto my iPod Touch, no problems but I've now got a constant error message on my laptop everytime I switch it on and access the internet. The message is "The procedure entry point xmlTextReaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll"
    This is the 2nd time this has happened. Last time iTunes Support called and we ran through a load of checks to no avail. The only option was to delete iTunes completely off my laptop and go for a new download of it. Can anybody tell me how to do it - didn't write it down last time, silly me, never thought it would happen again. Also sent an email to iTunes Support - waiting for a response.

  • I use Firefox to access the internet-but when I go off the internet but don't shut down, then go back on Firefox it won't open because "it is already running". Task Manager doesn't show that it is operating so I can't shut it off. What to do?

    It is in the question but to repeat.
    1. When I go online I use Mozilla Firefox
    2. While I am doing other work, I usually close the internet.
    3. If I go back on the internet and click on Mozilla it won't come up, stating that "it is already running".
    4. Despite that, when I open Task Manager, it doesn't show that it is running so I can't shut it down or open it.
    5. If I log off or shut off the computer, then after I log in or reboot the computer, I can open Mozilla.
    Thanks from a Mozilla fan.

  • Safari won't hit the internet but Firefox does.

    I have two Airport Extremes and one Linksys router all on separate channels. I have both Windows and Macs. Windows computers hit all 3 routers. The Mac Air will hit the Linksys using Safari, Mail and iTunes. But is not friendly with the Airport Extremes unless I use Firefox.
    My MacBook and iMac will not hit the Airport Extremes with Safari, Mail or iTunes nor the Linksys with Safari, Mail or iTunes. However FireFox will load the internet just fine on all three routers.
    When I run Airport diagnostics it reports all three routers are running fine.
    What am I missing? My Toshiba, Dell, HP and Fujitu computer hit all three routers using XP and Vista.

    Back up all data.
    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If any proxy options are selected, make a note of them and then deselect them. You don’t need to change the bypass or FTP settings. Click OK and then Apply. Test. The result may be that you can't connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if that happens.
