First time sync setup - Firefox 5.0 - nothing happening

First time sync setup - Firefox 5.0 - When I click on "Create a new account," nothing happens. How can I fix this? Thanks.

Try downloading Firefox again, then uninstall Firefox, remove the program directory, and install it all over again.

  • Large first-time sync fills up C: drive

    I just got a new 80GB video iPod for Christmas. I store a large number of ripped music files, one season of a TV series, and some photos on an external hard drive, and manage them through iTunes. The grand total for all this content was around 60GB. Long ago, I configured iTunes to use the G: drive (the external hard drive) as the location for all my content.
    The first-time sync to the new iPod went fine--automatic, not manual--except that something kept filling up the C: drive. (Again, the music is actually stored on an external G: drive.) I de-installed things during the sync to free up extra GB of space. As soon as they disappeared, iTunes kept filling them up. I'm now out of hard disk space on C:, with no idea what iTunes or the iPod did to fill up this space.
    If there's some cache that needs to be cleared, nothing has cleared it yet, and I have no idea where to find it (or what the consequences of clearing it will be). The process seemed smart enough to use what space was available, but no more. In other words, the sync continued, even after there was no room left on the C: drive.
    I had recently updated iTunes, which for reasons unknown, blew away my music library. I had just rebuilt it before doing the sync.
    The lack of space on the home PC puts me in a dangerous situation, given how fussy WIndows gets when it doesn't have spare room on the hard disk to use for updates and other operations. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
    Here are other specifics, for what they're worth:
    Operating system = Windows XP
    iPod firmware version = 1.2 (couldn't update to 1.2.1 because of the lack of disk space)
    iTunes version = 7.0.2
    External hard disk = Western Digital, mounted via USB
    iTunes option, Keep iTunes Music folder organized = true
    Podcast subscriptions = none
    HP desktop   Windows XP   See posting

    There isn't any cache for iTunes, other than the buffer for streaming radio. What you might want to do is search your My Documents\My Music\iTunes\ folder and see if there is anything in there other than the .xml library file. I know you did a search for *.mp3 but check it anyway...there is a chance that iTunes converted the files from *.mp3 to *.m4a (AAC audio)

  • For the first time I hate Firefox! Important time-saving feature removed (4.0)

    For the first time I hate Firefox (4.0).
    They removed the feature for the user to jump back multiple pages at once. I use this MANY MANY times a day and now I have to go back one page at a time until I get back to where I want to go. IF I have to go back (say) 10 pages or so it takes forever and I have to wait for the page to show to see if that is the one I wanted or have to go back further. This is a HUGE waste of time.
    IF Firefox does not restore this feature soon I will have no choice but to find another browser that has this feature. I cannot and will not waste my time with a browser that doesn't have this important feature.
    Also, 4.0 is regularly crashing (much more than before).

    It is still there. You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
    If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

  • How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes?  I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini.  Thanks.

    How do I sync my new ipad mini with my old ipad 2, without losing any apps or data in notes?  I need step by step instructions for first-time sync with ipad mini.  Thanks.

    If you synced it many times, you have to have a backup. It's just a question of how old that backup is now. When did you last sync?
    First of all launch iTunes on your computer and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. Do you see any backups for you iPad in that window? If so, how new is the newest backup? That will be the backup that you will want to use. But remember that if you use that backup and it is one month old, you can only restore from that date back in time. Anything that you did on the iPad in the past month will not be in that backup.
    Turn on the new iPad Minin and start activating OTA via WiFi. You will get to a certain point in the process where you will be given the choice to Set up as new, Restore from iCloud - or Restore from iTunes. You will want to select Restore from iTunes.
    That is the short and sweet version. There are step by step instructions in this article. This applies to the mini as well as the iPad 4 or the iPad 3 for that matter.

  • Why aren't Flash cookies cleared the first time I exit Firefox?

    I am running XP, Firefox 16.0.1 and Flash Player 11.4.402.287 and have Firefox configured to "Clear history when Firefox closes", with "Cookies" (amongst other options) checked in the "Settings for Clearing History". I also have Flash Player configured to "Block all sites from storing information on this computer."
    As I understand things, starting with Firefox 4 and Flash Player 10.3, having Firefox configured this way should cause Flash cookies to be deleted upon exiting Firefox. I also understand that even though I have Flash configured as I do, a list of sites that attempt to plant a Flash cookie will still be recorded in the main settings.sol cookie.
    I have noticed, though, that this list of empty Flash cookies is not deleted the first time I exit Firefox; rather, the list is deleted after launching and then exiting Firefox again.
    Here's a step-by-step example:
    1) Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> confirm that the list is empty
    2) Exit the Flash Player Settings Manage
    3) Launch Firefox -> go to www.hulu.com and click on a video to start it playing
    4) Relaunch Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> confirm that the list shows www.hulu.com, 0 bytes, Block
    5) Exit the Flash Player Settings Manager
    6) Exit Firefox
    7) Relaunch Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> NOTE THAT THE LIST STILL SHOWS www.hulu.com, 0 bytes, Block
    8) Exit the Flash Player Settings Manager
    9) Relaunch Firefox
    10) Relaunch Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> NOTE THAT THE LIST STILL SHOWS www.hulu.com, 0 bytes, Block
    11) Exit the Flash Player Settings Manager
    12) Exit Firefox
    13) Relaunch Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> NOTE THAT THE LIST IS NOW EMPTY
    So again my question is - why isn't this list emptied the first time around?

    Ok, so I created a new profile and followed the steps I spelled out in my first post several times - each time the Hulu flash cookie was cleared the first time I closed Firefox.
    So what would you recommend I do next to get to the bottom of the behavior in my current profile? Should I go about disabling my extensions and plugins one by one and repeating the test each time?
    Thanks again so much for your time and help.
    PS: I never have a problem with Hulu playing with my flash local storage set to zero - interesting that you do...

  • When I plug my device into the computer for the first time the setup process doesn't begin. What do I do?

    Try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:

  • The first time I start Firefox it is very slow coming up but after it is up and I want another window it fast again. What do I need to do to clean out whatever is clogging it up.

    Question
    The first time I start Firefox it is very slow coming up but after it is up and I want another window it fast again. What do I need to do to clean out whatever is clogging it up. edit

    * The first time you start up any application after turning on your computer is called a cold start, which is why Firefox takes a while to load right away. (I've noticed that future versions of Firefox start up faster on a cold start then Firefox 5.0.1.) Also, a lower amount of RAM could be slowing its start-up down since Firefox is kind of memory hungry.
    * As for the second part of your question, press ctrl,Alt, and the delete keys on your keyboard. The Windows Task Manager should start. Go to the processes tab and look for 'firefox.exe'. Right click on the firefox.exe and click 'End Process'. Hit Yes and wait for a minute.
    * Then opening Firefox again.
    Hopefully this helped somewhat!

  • HT1296 i have an ipad with many application, will the first time sync erase all the data?

    i have an ipad with many application installed on it, will the first time sync with itunes erase all the installed applications on the device?

    The iCloud settings for the computer and other devices are in the iCloud preferences in System Preferences. If you open iTunes with your iPhone connected to the computer, select the iPhone under Devices in iTunes' sidebar, then click on the Info tab in iTunes' main window. Look at the various items you see listed. Be sure to check the Mail component for your GMail account because it is not an iCloud mail account. Your Calendar and Contacts components should state that they are being synced by iCloud.

  • HT201412 My screen is not display and when i try to sync with my iTunes with will not allow me to sync becuase this would be my first time syncing to itunes.

    please help....This is my first time syncing to itunes and it it asking me to allow access, please respond on your ipad.  this is my problem becuase my display not showing up so i cannot respond. 
    the only thing i can think of that happened was when there was a software update a few days and thats it.
    Anyone know how i can get this resolved please and thank you.

    Try this before trying to sync. Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own.

  • Syncing to a new computer - nothing happens

    I recently upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7.  I have transfered all my music to my new computer but when I begin to sync my iPod Classic 6 nothing happens.  I am able to see my device in iTunes and have checked all the appropriate boxes.  With my old computer the iPod automatically syncs, but it doesn't seem to happen with the new one.  It doesn't even search for files to sync.  Do I have to restore my iPod?  I'm afraid to restore my iPod before I am certain that I have the right information.

  • HT201412 First time sync with PC fail

    I have tried to sync my new Ipad with my PC and it wont do it. It says it needs a system restore and when I click that to do it, it says restore fail. Its showing a picture of a USB cable with an arrow pointing upwards to an itunes symbol as if to say I need to connect. But when I do it wont connect with itunes. I have disabled my security and reinstalled itunes and still nothing. I have only had it about 7 weeks and this is the first time I have plugged it into my PC. Any thoughts please'

    Thanks, I have tried that a number of times and it brings up errors -1, 14 and one other, cant remember what that was, it just wont do it. I have been using it overseas with a NZ sim card in it and have taken that out to see if that made a difference, just wont recover. Bit of a worry. Any other thoughts

  • Ovi First time sync

    The first time I synced my mobile with Ovi it did included some telephone numbers and e-mail address for some of my contacts. The contacts were there with some basic info just missing the telephone (for example).
    Any ideas as to what I did wrong?

    PEople have experienced problems with ovi not showing all the necessary info in contact cards. Someone claimed that Ovi still stores all the info but is just unable to display it.

  • First time sync/backing up taking LONG time..

    I have a 3.1 iPhone, which I have never synced with my computer. It sounds silly, i know, but it's because i only use it for work email and games for my kids. We don't use it for music, etc. so i really have never had a reason to sync it.
    Well, this past xmas, we got an ipad so i'm trying to sync my iphone so i can get to itunes the paid games so that I can also get them on my ipad. I'm understanding now that i don't really need to do that to get paid apps to my ipad device, because it should recognize my itunes id and know that already.
    So...i'm still trying to sync my iphone for the very first time anyway so i can get the latest version of 4.2 and the backup is taking a VERY long time. Last night it was 15 hours and it was only 3/4 a way through. So, now I am following this helpful discussion link:
    http://blog.jhong.org/2008/08/does-your-iphone-take-forever-to.html
    but the backup seems to still be taking a long time. Are pictures potentially a problem? When the picture scanner came on asking me where to save pictures, I canceled out, so i'm assuming that pictures aren't even being backed up. Should i expect that first time i'm backing up/syncing is going to take a really really long time like i'm experiencing.
    And for anyone who has tried the advice in the above link, have they experienced continued delay in backing up, which the link was supposed to help alleviate?
    Sorry, if this is confusing but any help would be appreciated.

    The camera roll does back up to the backup file though it is HIGHLY recommended that you take them off on regular basic. the camera roll is meant as a temp location like any digital camera. If you want photos on your phone you sync them back to their own albums thus iTunes doesn't have to back them up because it knows they are on your computer already that you should be backing up yourself.
    The more pics, the longer the backup as the iOS and the camera roll are sort of separate.
    You can click the X next to where it says backing up and it will stop and move on to next step of taking stuff off and syncing.

  • Trying to update Firefox and I downloaded setup.exe, but then nothing happened

    I currently have 3.0.19 version of Firefox and finally decided to update since this version crashes whenever you go to google maps. My automatic updater did not work (error message was just that it failed for an unspecified reason). I went to the mozilla website and clicked on the free download button. It then asked if I wanted to save the Firefox 7.0.1 setup.exe which I saved to my Mozilla folder. Then nothing happened. When I clicked on the link if nothing automatically happens it just asks if I want to save the same file. I've restarted, but still have the same old firefox version. Is there more I need to download, or do I have to run something?

    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    *Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.
