Flash problems with Win2KPro/IE6, Firefox not as bad
I'm not sure whether it's the installation, the operating system, both, or if the update to the latest Flash isn't designed for either, but I'm having massive slowdowns and even freezes for as long as 30-60 seconds - some times, it doesn't come back at all and I'm forced to shut it down through the Task Manager. Seems advertisements, menus (like on Yahoo), and such are using some form of Flash for everything and it's causing serious issues with my system. Even Firefox, which I rarely use, takes time loading Adobe web pages and hangs near the end.
If Flash 9 is more suited to my set-up or if the kinks haven't been ironed out, I'd like to know, since I can't do squat on any website without some form installed and I'm definitely not going to leave things the way they are now. I need a solution that doesn't involve spending $2K I don't have for another computer just to do mundane tasks. Also, is it possible to at least do a check when installing and give the choice?
I wish that worked :[
I forgot to add that I am also using Norton Antivirus 2005. I already went to the Personal Firewall settings and I configured it to permit all adobe programs.

Updated Kaspersky to 15.0.0.463(a) - ( comes with "safe money" - now turned off).
Updated Firefox from (old) version to 32.0.3.
Barclays bank site loads properly, and allows access to accounts BUT when I try to look at a statement, Firefox "not responding" and a blank/ unresponsive page is displayed.
In order to acheive any movement I have to close firefox... this gives rise to windows wanting to send error data, and Firefox apologising for loosing the tab.
None of which allows me to do essential banking transactions.
It is this machine that has the problem - I can access without problems via work computer (using google Chrome)My guess is that your statement is a PDF document, since banks and other companies often use that format for statements.
Firefox has various options for viewing PDFs, including a built-in PDF viewer (not as full featured as Adobe's), or the option to use a plugin such as Adobe Acrobat, or to launch the PDF in an external application. This article describes how to experiment with that setting: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].
On another subject, your plugin list has various plugins described as "Google Chrome Extension". I haven't seen that before. Could you review the list and see whether they really should be active in Firefox or can be deactivated?
Open the Add-ons page using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Plugins.
For those that are not essential, I suggest changing them to "Never Activate". This might not take effect immediately in that window, but should disable them in new windows. -
Who else has a problem with parental controls enabled not being able to run Firefox on the Mac? (Any solutions?) (BTW. Chrome doesn't work either)
Although FF4 is so nice I'm almost ready to ditch iGoogle!
Please fix what appears to be an RSS/iGoogle issue with FF4...
Gmail is fine, but titles dont show in most RSS feed gadgets and no stories, strangely, apart from this one:
http://www.google.com.au/ig/directory?hl=en&url=www.google.com/ig/modules/builtin_news_technology.xml
Which if you enter the last part of the url reports that
"<Content type="html">
This is a builtin module, so the UserPrefs and Content are ignored."
Any ideas? -
Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)
Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)
On a laptop G4, 10.5.8 and Safari 5.02 I experience the following:
On the account of my oldest daughter everything works fine, i.e. wireless internet works and no problems with mail or safari.
On the same laptop, on the account of my other daughter, the wireless is OK, she can mail etc. But safari nor firefox works. It says: can’t find server (whatever site) and in the activity window it looks if safari tries to open files (in the safari preferences-folder) in stead of http. Same applies to Firefox, so maybe it has more to do with HTTP in general?
What goes wrong? What to do? I tried the following on the host terminal (tips from Apple)
defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
and
defaults delete com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled
but that did not help,
NanneI'm still wondering why it happens now at this moment in time...
PC does seem to be a bit odd & inconsistent, the few times I've tested with it, at least so far as we content filtering goes; and if I remember rightly, you're not the first to report previously ok settings suddenly preventing some or all internet until pc is switched off altogether.
It may work when re-enabled -
my iphone 4 keeps flashing up with 'this device is not accessorised for this iphone' and its not plugged into anything, can anyone help?
The most common reason for this message is, the iPhone dock port needs to be cleaned, use a clean dry tooth brush. See if this helps. If you keep getting the message, then clean the dock port again very carefully with isopropyll alcohol, expecially the pins which are on top of the dock mid rib. If still problems make appointment with Apple Genius.

Huge problems with Amazon and Firefox 5 (& IE, Chrome, Opera)
I have Firefox 5 and Windows 7 Home. I have been having increasing problems with amazon pages hanging- not just with Firefox but with IE, Opera & Chrome. Sometimes everything is fine but increasingly amazon is becoming unusable. It has got worse since updating to Firefox 5 from 4. Can anyone help ( in non-technical language!)
Try clearing the Cache in Firefox.
Tools-> Clear Recent History -> [v] Cache
or
Tools->Options->Advanced->Network -> Offline storage -> [Clear Now]
Youtube may have made some changes recently. Clear the Youtube cookie if above does not do it. -
I recently upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5 and now my iPod Nano is not recognized in iTunes. I also upgraded my iPhone 5s to iOS 7.1. i Tunes on my computer does recognize my iPhone. What is the problem with my iPod Nano not being recognized?
I would think, Twins1995, that if we are having the problem, others are as well. Hopefully, Apple will shortly issue a follow-up software release to fix the problem. Or is that just wishful thinking on my part.
It would be helpful, if there were some kind of work-around in the interim, so we can use our devices. Pretty frustrating when you consider that all of the hardware and software is produced by Apple. -
Since the most recent Firefox update 3.6.8 my banking institution no longer shows as having a secure encrypted connection, however, my bank assures me all is well with their certificates and that is a problem with the new Firefox browser update, can you give me some idea why it is doing this?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Right after the new Firefox updateHello Anne.
Can you please try it in a new (temporary) Firefox profile and see if the issue is still present? See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+profiles this article] to know how to create a new Firefox profile. Please report back the results. -

SOLMAN 7.0 problem with Stack16-question on note#1231975
SOLMAN 7.0 problem with Stack16-question on note#1231975
I'm importing Stacks 16&17 into our Solution Manager 7.0 system
and getting errors when importing the Java part in JSPM after the ABAP
went in with no errors. The error matches OSS note 1231975 but we are
having problems understanding what this note is advising to fix the
issue. "SAPJTECHS SP16 component needs to be applied before proceeding
with the whole SP16 stack. It should fix the usages on the systems
fixing missing rows at BC_SL_PARTS table." Each time we start JSPM it
gives the errors mentioned in this note. How are we to import
SAPJTECHS before the rest of the Java Support Packs if we can't get
JSPM to come up due to this error? About half of the Java Support
Packs were imported before this error occured.You can deploy that component manually using SDM (instead of JSPM).
