win 7, plenty of ram, plenty of disk space, high speed internet

Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

  • I've followed all the recommended steps for disk space limitations and still cannot download emails. Recommendations please.

    I'm running the latest OS on my iMac, and I do not use anti-virus software. I have deleted all but a few emails from my Trash and compacted all folders. The Alert message, "There is not enough disk space to download new messages. Try deleting old mail, emptying the Trash folder, and compacting your mail folders, and then try again." continues to appear.

    the issue can be caused by a lack of physical disk space, a lack of quota in the disk (user account full), file locking and contention (such a an anti virus or backup program trying to access the same space at the same time. Time machine features in some peoples problems) or as the message suggest large Thunderbird files. As you have looked at the Thunderbird issues, perhaps it is time to look t the broader picture.

  • Firefox update failed, so I re-installed. Now firefox won't start up at all?

    ''locking as a duplicate of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/969557''
    So I ran firefox, and it was updating. While updating, firefox crashed for no apparent reason so I had to close it. Afterwards, every time I tried to start up firefox, it gave me the update failed error, followed by a crash less than a second later. I followed some instructions, uninstalling and re-installing firefox (without removing personal data), but now firefox won't start up at all!
    Now what?

    We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing when you open it. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.
    #Press the following shortcut to get a Run window: [Windows] + [R]. This should bring up a window that contains a text field.
    #In that text field, enter %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
    #From that explorer window, double-click on the ''Mozilla'' folder, then double-click on ''Firefox'' and then on ''Crash reports''. Double-click on ''submitted''.
    #Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to ''View'' > ''Arrange Icons by'' > ''Modified'' to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
    #Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
    #Paste each ID with '''bp-''' into the reply window on the forums.
    Thanks in advance!
    You can find more information and troubleshooting steps in the [[Firefox crashes]] article.

  • Hello. I have an iphone 5s and i can not activate imessage nor facetime. I followed all the steps provided by the apple page and still i can not make it connect. The phone is connected to wifi at all times and has ios 8.

    Hello. I have an iphone 5s and i can not activate imessage nor facetime. I followed all the steps provided by the apple page and still i can not make it connect. The phone is connected to wifi at all times and has ios 8.

    Can you send SMS by using the mobile data network instead of Wi-Fi? I had the same problem setting up my 5s from a backup of my 4s. Only after I sent an SMS via mobile data network, somehow iMessage and FaceTime got activated a couple of minutes later without me doing anything else.
    I even changed my Apple ID password, because at one point I could not log into my account when iMessage asked for my account details.
    If you have difficulty activating FaceTime or iMessage - Apple Support

    Hi, My name is Bheki Yende
    I'm experiencing a problem with an app I've just purchased from iTunes, I have tried every piece of advice from the "iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store" and still nothing is working. I would like to get my refund on this pls.
    This is an inconvenience, I don't understand why I have to contact the developer for a faulty product in your store.
    I've paid iTunes to get this, so iTunes must fix this problem for me or give my money back.
    Thanks

    This is a user forum, you are not speaking to Apple here.
    You will need to contact iTunes support here, regarding this issue. They will usually respond within 24 hours.

  • Firefox won't start, but possible to troubleshoot as compatibility. how can I fix this without running compatibility?

    2014 April 29, Firefox works fine but April 30 it won't start, the possible to work is running compatibility (troubleshoot). Is there any solution for this without running compatibility or without formatting computer? And works during 2014 April 29.
    I've already uninstall anti virus
    I try also restore and repair windows
    I've also uninstall and reinstall firefox.
    still doesn't work :(

    If you had an update of Firefox, the firewall may be the problem.<BR><BR>
    This problem occurs when your Internet security program was set to trust the
    previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your updated version as
    trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow Firefox to connect to the Internet
    again:<BR><BR>
    * Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version)<BR><BR>
    * Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs, then add it back. For detailed instructions, see Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.

  • Firefox won't start up at all, I can't figure out how to fix it?

    I've already looked at older posts on the forum, but nothing seems to work.
    When I click on the firefox logo nothing happens at all (It will try load for around 2 seconds then it stops). I can't run it in safe mode, I've tried making a new profile, I've tried restarting my computer and none of these things have helped.
    Does anyone know how I could solve this? I really don't want to go back to using IE.

  • I recently updated Adobe Flash and Adobe Shockwave, now Firefox will not load. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and still nothing. Help

    Firefox never opens. It is trying but nothing seems to change, no matter how much time is allowed.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • I have read all of the similar issues on this site and I still cannot connect my airport extreme (although there is no problem with my old airport express - help...

    i have read all of the numerous and similar issues on this subject.  and i still cannot connect my new airport extreme.  my old airport express works fine still.  help.  and why are there so many issues with connecting this stuff?  i thought this stuff was supposed to be getting easier, not harder... thanks.

    Sorry, but I have no idea on what you have read and tried so far so please forgive me for any redundancy.
    Is your AirPort Extreme the only router in your current network configuration? Which exact model is it? If there are other routers being used, please provide their make(s) & model(s). Also the make & model of your Internet modem.
    What is your goal with the Extreme? Is it to replace the "old" AirPort Express? Will you still be using the Express for any reason(s)?

  • After updating to ios 6, my ipod touch won't access some of my music. The music is gray colored and unclickable. Please help!!

    A couple months ago I updated my iPod touch to the most recent ios (6.1.3). Now, my music works normally except for one thing: some of it is gray colored and unplayable.  I have one album of music that I actually bought on my iPod and only one song in it is playable. I also have some music that I bought on my computer and synced into my  iPod and only choice music of that collection is playable. Then I have four of five tangible albums that I bought and downloaded onto my computer and then synced to my iPod. It's just so weird how only some choice songs or albums are unplayable, but a lot of it is of some of my favorites artists, so I really hope this can be fixed! Thanks!
