Firefox3.8.6 VERY slow starting up. Is it antagonistic to InternetExplorer which is dormant on my PC.Outlook Expressis also very slow

Both FF and IE are present on my laptop. I never use IE for browsing, but some websites open it for special purposes (BT for example in their Broadband help mode). I have wireless BB. At startup both FF and OE take forever to load. I seems independent of time of day or BB up/download speed, which BB is sometimes as slow as 0.5 meg and never exceeds 4.5. Uniblue Registry cleaner also sometimes freezes everything.

Do you have Java Quick start enabled?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?

    The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer (pc)  which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?  I am in Australia.
    I have just noticed the other discussion points - mine is set to Australia. 
    Dear Apple - as the day that the week starts on can depend on country and religion - how about making it an option that the user can change????

    I believe the week view on the iPhone is handled by the Region settings in the phone. I am not aware of any other manner to change it, as you can with Outlook.

  • Error 0x80007114 "Outlook Express could not be started" when trying to run Migration Assitant.

    Trying to run Migration Assistant on a PC (Windows XP).  Error message "Outlook Express could not be started.  The application was unable to initialize the store directory.  Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full. Contact Microsoft support for further assistance. (0x80007114)"  Then the Migration Assistant shows a box stating that Outlook Express must be stopped before running the assistant. 
    I have enough memory.  The disk is not full.  Outlook Express runs just fine on my PC.  And it was not runing at the time.
    Apple Support (two tries) and my Apple store have essentially said this is a Microsoft problem.  Of course, Microsoft says it is an Apple program failing so it is an Apple problem.
    MS info about the error indicates that it prevents OE from starting.  Than is not my situation at all.  The fix is draconian (as many are) and could risk my OE so I have not gone there - yet.  Hopefully there is another way.
    Does anyone have any experience on how to (easily) solve this dilemma.  I am also trying on the MS side. 
    This is my first MAC.  I was convinced to go Apple by several folks who touted the excellent support.  It was purchased in July 2012 and has been a boat anchor since.  Support??
    Thanks for any info you can provide.

    So I had this as well.
    I went to the file tab and went to export. From there I picked 720p and it worked. It may be different for you depending on the resolution of the video. hopefully it works for you too!

    Hi there I am having trouble with my outlook express this is the first time it has happened it keeps telling me can't connect to the SMTP server and every password I have tried is incorrect this is for 'iCloud' very frustrating as all our phones are ok

    Well I am feeling a bit silly now because that was all I had to do. In the past Workgroup Manager had always opened right up to the list of my users, I never even thought to click on that but apparently that was all that was needed.
    I still am not sure how the iChat Server preferences changed themselves on me, but it is not the first time I have had weird "settings" issues with our Snow Leopard Server.
    Thanks!

    On my windows PC outlook express is NOT running and as far as i know, NOT installed.
    How do I install Outlook Express??

  • HT4796 Error 0x80007114 Outlook Express cannot be started.

    Window Migration Assistant fails immediately with the above error.  OE runs fine on the PC.

    Here is what I am trying to do:
    Windows Migration brings the following information from your Windows  PC (Windows XP SP3 or greater) to your Mac:
    Email: IMAP and POP accounts from Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail and Windows Live email accounts are transferred to Mail. Email metadata such as read, replied, and flagged are transferred from Outlook, Outlook Express and Windows Mail to Mail in OS X.
    Contacts: Outlook and Outlook Express contacts, and Windows Contacts from the Contact home directory are transferred to Address Book.
    Calendars: Outlook calendars are transferred to iCal
    iTunes library, including music, photos, videos and apps and  games for iOS devices, except rentals
    Home directory folders and content, including Music, Pictures,  Desktop, Documents, and Downloads
    Browser bookmarks and homepage from Internet Explorer, Firefox,  and Safari are transferred to Safari
    User settings including localization, locale, and any customized  desktop picture
    The problem is obviously somewhere on the PC side since the Windows Migration Program fails on the PC but I am starting with questions here because surely someone in the Apple community has seen this problem and has a solution. 
    This is the first thing I have tried on my new Mac (first time Mac user) and it failed.  Not a good start Apple!!
    The full error on the PC side is "Outlook Express could not be started.  Unable to initalize store directory.  Out of memory or disk full.  (0x80007114)"  SInce OE runs fine on the PC, I have no idea what this means or how to get around it.
    Any ideas/help would be appreciated.  I really would hate to have to go to MS with this question...

  • On occasion I will have 13 plugin-containers.exe launch right after I start Firefox typicaly there will be none which is what I expect since my startpages do not have any apps. Why is this?

    Compaq laptop with 500MM memory
    Startpage(s) is Google and LinkedIn logon screens
    Disabled all but Flash and Java
    9 out of 10 times (ish) FF launch's with 0 plugin-containers.exe
    When 13 launch startpage will not load
    When startpage does not load I reboot, start FF, and usually don't have a problem.
    After hours on the computer it becomes unusably slow and there will be 13 plugin-containers.exe
    I know this computer is under powered but I only use it for mail and LinkedIn. Replacing or upgrading memory is not an option for me.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • IMac taking ten minutes to start up and sits at a blue screen for the most of the time. Also, when it goes into sleep mode I am unable to wake it up from it.

    For the past few days now whenever I go to turn on my iMac it takes roughly ten or more minutes to boot up. For the portion of this time it sits on a blank blue screen. At first it comes up to a plain white screen which after about 30 seconds has the apple logo on it and the spinning circle for about a minute then to the blue screen, every time. Then, to top it off right when this started happening another problem began occurring. The computer is set to go into sleep mode after 15 minutes of no use. But, if it is in sleep mode for too long I am unable to get it out and I have to restart the entire computer, but if it is just for a few seconds into sleep or a minute I am able to get the screen to come back. I can still here the fan running and such so I don't know what is going on. I have searched through discussion after discussion. I have tried: repairing disks, repairing permissions, starting up in safe mode, and such. There has been no luck so far. I was wondering if anyone could offer insight into fixing at least one of these problems since my schooling relies on the computer.
    By the way I this is an iMac 10.6.4 refurbished which we just bought about two weeks ago.
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    My iMac i7 quad was having the same symptoms with the blue screen and long startup times a couple of months ago.  Apple Care told me to bring it in to the local Apple Store, and after some diagnostics, the hard drive required replacing.  It took one day to replace the hard drive and my iMac is running great. I only had the iMac for about 12 months when the drive needed to be replaced.  Not sure if that is your Mac's problem, but it was for mine.

  • When I start my computer I get a "AppleSyncNotifier.exe Entry Point Not Found message.  I also get an error message when trying to sync with iTunes that a backup session cannot be started.  How do I fix this?

    In the last few days when I start my computer, I get a box that opens with "AppleSyncNotifier.exe" Entry Point Not Found in the title.
    It says:  "The procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQlite3.dll.
    I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes and still get an error message when trying to sync my phone with iTunes
    "iTunes could not back up iPhone ####, because a session could not be started with the iPhone."
    The last time I tried to sync my phone (iPhone 3G S) with iTunes, everything seemed to freeze up at Stage 4 of the sync process. 
    Any advice????

    With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
    Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
    Reboot and see if all is well
    In case that your OS is Windows 7 (64 bit)
    1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
    3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
    4. Paste file "SQLite3.dll" to the location.
    5. Reboot your computer, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
    Good Luck

  • Why does FF4 start to download an image once more which is already on screen when trying to save this image?

    I look at a picture from a photo-site - size 11 MB. I decide to save this picture > right click > save image as.. The download window opens and FF downloads the picture once more which is already somewhere in FF's cache or memory.. I can see that data comes from the internet and not from a local place on my computer and the process can be rather slow, when the remote server is slow.. I find this as a waste of bandwidth.. Is it possible to avoid this behaviour?

  • Having trouble removing a student email account from the Windows Mail App because the school has started using office 365 for thier email which i dont have access to

    I was wondering if anybody has any ideas on how to remove a gmail account that was set up by a community college for use on their mail servers and then find out that after awhile they have locked you out because they have started using office 365 for their
    emails and you are left with a student email account that you have no idea how to delete because you have missied out on deleting it before they changed to a different email provider?
    Anybody with ideas please help because I don't know what to do

    Hi,
    Regarding to Windows Mail App, do you mean the Modern UI App in Windows 8.1? Do you mean that you want to remove the email account from Mial App? Generally, we can simply remove the account by the "Account" option in Mail App (Open Mail App, move
    the mouse the right chram bar, click Account, then click the mail account\Remove account), but if the email acocunt is tied with the Microsoft Account which is used on the pc, in that case, it is unavailable to remove the email account, you need to contact
    your college to disconnect the Microsoft Account.
    If I'm misunderstanding something, please free correct me.

  • [SOLVED] How to start JACK with KDE 4? (and which JACK should I use?)

    Hi again
    I'm using KDE 4, and I've just installed JACK again, and since I can't find any decent documentation on this, I'm having a bit of a problem.
    Currently I have jack from [extra] installed, rather than jack2. When I try starting jack as the ArchWiki suggests, i.e. by typing "jackd -d alsa", I get the following error:
    $ jackd -d alsa
    jackd 0.120.1
    Copyright 2001-2009 Paul Davis, Stephane Letz, Jack O'Quinn, Torben Hohn and others.
    jackd comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY
    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
    under certain conditions; see the file COPYING for details
    could not open driver .so '/usr/lib/jack/jack_firewire.so': libffado.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

    control device hw:0
    the playback device "hw:0" is already in use. Please stop the application using it and run JACK again
    cannot load driver module alsa
    I've also tried jack2 from [community], and after starting it with "jack_control start", I get this...
    $ jack_control start
    --- start
    DBus exception: org.jackaudio.Error.Generic: Failed to start server
    So how do I start it? I'm guessing jack doesn't want to start because some other KDE application grabbed alsa before jackd (but I've been wrong before), and I don't have the slightest idea what jack2 is about with that "generic" error. If anyone would help me shed some light on this, I'd appreciate it a lot.
    Thanks in advance!

    @schivmeister thanks that one worked
    Yes, it was knotify4. So now this part works. I've switched to jack2 and it works flawlessly when starting it with jackd
    So this part is solved... now, would you be so kind (if you know) as to point me to some tutorials or howtos (or proper documentation, cos I can't find much of that either) on how to connect various ALSA channels with JACK?
    Basically, I want to route my PCM channel and the Mic channel into Capture 1 (or one to Capture 1 and other to Capture 2), since my Intel HDA audio card doesn't have the "Mix" or "What-U-Hear" or whatever as an available capture source. Any leads on that? (or do I have to open another thread for it?)
    TIA
