Having trouble connecting to your up-date server, I can't.

Have been trying for weeks to install your up-date that was sent to me and suggested to install. Problem is three fold:
1- I can not get past the pop up screen that states Downloading Firefox and connecting to Firefox server, green bar just keeps running back and forth, it will never connect. And reminder pop-up comes on every time I restart my computer and try to install it every time, with the same results, it just keeps running.
2- I also get Alerts from my Norton System that state " High Disc usage by Firefox.
3- I get lots of not responding messages and delays on Firefox
I'm sure all are related, but I'm computer stupid and don't know what to do.

If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • App World issues. "having trouble connecting to BlackBerry App world Server" and "installation issue"

    Hey.... I hope this isn't just repeating the 'same old' issue, but I have read through everything I could find and I am still having no luck.
    Anyways I am having a few issues.....
    ONE/// When I try to go to "My World" on my Playbook it always comes up with the message:
    BlackBerry App World is having trouble connecting to the Blackberry App World Server,  Verify your network connections and try again.
    One solution I read was to connect to an alternative WiFi connection, however I haven't got any other connection I can connect to before switching back to my own.... help?!
    TWO// There are also two games I have been desperately trying to install but have had no luck.  Each time all I get is the following message:
    Install Error. There was a problem during Installation.  Please try again.
    I have read the KB26671 file, and tried to follow the 'resolution' there but whenever I log in I never get any 'account set up process' to continue with..... let alone what the rest of the guide says to do.
    THREE// Not sure why but when I try to use AppWorld on my PC it won't show me my playbook device, simply says "please connect your device".... help?  According to my playbook it is connected to computer, and my PC is picking up the Playbook as the manager always tells me it is there and lets me view the files but still AppWorld can't seem to see it.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Well I was just trying to see if it was your network connection. I have found that lately anyhow, the connection to the App World hasn't been that reliable - not sure why and it's just been recently for me. But I have downloaded some pretty large files in the last few days too without issue.
    Sorry, this isn't much help but if you find your network connection is becoming flaky, remove the profile and setup a new one. Sometimes I find I have to briefly shut off my internet connection on the PlayBook and then re-enable it when it's acting up. Then things are fine afterwards. A device reboot may help but it may not. I wish I could be more help but this gremlin sounds elusive.
    Actually, duh, why didn't I put two and two together eariler? See if this thread is applicable to you or not: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-PlayBook/PlayBook-not-letting-me-update-apps/td-p/...
    In short, reboot your PlayBook and try again...

  • BlackBerry App World is having trouble connecting to the BlackBerry App World Server. Verify your network connections and try again.

    My BlackBerry's screen suddenly only appeared with white background.  I had a new screen put in.  They uninstalled all my applications and now I cant download anything.  My BlackBerry Messanger is gone will all my contacts in it and App World is having trouble connecting.  What should I do? Can you please help me.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    This error has been discussed hundreds (thousands?) of times in this forum...a quick search of the site might actually provide you with an answer much quicker than awaiting a reply.
    Also, there are several public KB articles on that exact error...I recommend you go there and search as well:
    http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/microsites/microsite.do
    Since each has a subtle difference from the other, I cannot tell which might apply to your specifics.
    Good luck!

  • HT201210 is anyone having trouble connecting to the activation server?

    is anyone having trouble connecting to the activation server?

    All of Apple's servers...including the activation servers are pretty much flooded with users like you doing the same thing. Be patient and keep at it...or wait till the traffic to them has decreased and then try again. Coming back to it tomorrow  (if that's a viable option for you) will likely increase your chances of not having issues.

  • We're having trouble connecting to the server

    HI,
    We install SharePoint 2013 on Azure and were using it from clients via vpn connection to our Azure virtual Net.
    When trying to edit or add office document from the client  we get this error: "we're having trouble connecting to the server..."
    sometimes will get the "document is locked ..." which is typical for a document which is still locked by office , I guess its all related to some connection failure from the office client.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to edit or add office document from the client.
    Usually a file is locked when a particular user has ‘checked out’ the file for editing purposes. A write lock is created so that no other user can edit this file simultaneously.
    There can be numerous reasons for this such as:
             1.    System crashes while the file is still open.
             2.    File has been closed unexpectedly.
             3.    Check in was not successful.
             4.    Network connection is lost while file is still open.
    In most of the cases, the write lock still exist for the file so its gives an editing error.
    To resolve the issue, you follow the steps in the article as below:
    SharePoint error: File is locked for editing by ‘domain\username' : SharePoint Tutorial #6

    Remove SharePoint Client Side File Lock

    Having the exact same problem with connecting ML and Snow Leopard machines to a Windows 8.1 machine.

I have a brand new MacBook Pro, and at no time am I actually having trouble connecting to the server, but this message continues to pop-up several times a day at random intervals. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Or is my computer just having a glitch? Other than that, and a mildly sticking caps lock button, it's working perfectly.
    Thank you!

    Alright it didn't solve it. Any other suggestions?
    I haven't suggested a solution yet. I want to know whether you still get the messages while Time Machine is disabled. Do you? If so, try any or all of the solutions proposed in this thread:

  • We are having trouble connecting to the server-sign in lync 2013

    hello all,
    I'm trying to sign in to my lync from my host , all my work is virtual . 
    under certificate trusted root i put my CA but when i try to connct i have the error: "we are having trouble connecting to the server" knowing that
    under \etc , i inser @IP_lyncmachine  name_lync_machine  and in the option of  lync i choose manually
    any advice?

    You can run the command netstat –ano with command prompt to check whether port 5061 is listening. You also need to create a firewall policy to allow the traffice through 5061 from the subnet the phisical computer locates to Lync Front End Server

  • A connection to the QuickTime server could not be established. This computer may be having trouble accessing the Internet or the server may be offline

    When I select “Update existing software in QuickTime Pro I get an error message saying “A connection to the QuickTime server could not be established. This computer may be having trouble accessing the Internet or the server may be offline”
    This has persisted for several weeks. Any help will be welcomed as I do not know how to contact QuickTime support via Apple.
    I am using Windows 7 64 bit.  
    Many thanks

    I was able to download and install the latest version of iTunes  (10.6.3.25) without a hitch. After the reboot I tried again to update my exisitng Quicktime Pro software as described in my original posting and got exactly the same error message.
    If it happens that there is no software to download because I am already running the latest version, surely a message to that effect would appear and not the one saying “A connection to the QuickTime server could not be established. This computer may be having trouble accessing the Internet or the server may be offline”
    Still seeking advice if possible
    Cheers

    Welcome to AD!
    I have a regular post for the top 3 or 4 fixes for that 9808 error. Obviously you are going to skip #1, since you've already tried it. Let me know how you get on with the next 2.
    The top 3 fixes to itunes error 9808 seem to be
    1) Go to Start > Control Panel > Internet Options > Advanced, make sure that SSL 3.0 is checked and TLS 1.0 is checked. Also under Security make sure that the “Check for server certificate revocation (requires restart)” is unchecked. Then click ok and fire up iTunes.
    2) The culprit was Norton. The users are set up as Admin and Standard. I have Parental Controls turned on in both Vista as well as Norton. Admin users had no problems connecting to iTunes. Standard users would get the error. I had to go to Norton’s Personal Firewall and add the program “iTunes Helper.exe” and set the option to “Allowed” (”iTunes.exe should already be in the Allowed category.) in order for the standard users to be able to connect.
    3) close iTunes if you have it open right now. Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Local Settings/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes. Delete or cut the preferences.xml file which contains your iTunes preferences. Then go to C:/Documents and Settings/username/Application Data/Apple Computer/iTunes and delete or move the preferences.xml file. For Mac users, there is only one file you must delete or move a to a new location and is located at User > Library > Preferences > com.apple.itunes.plist. Restart iTunes and it will recreate those two (or one) files with the default settings. Feel free to set your preferences back to what they were and then connect to the iTunes store and enjoy!
    And #4, see if you can get into the iTS from a different windows admin account on the same PC.

  • Trouble connecting to Iphone software update server

    I am trying to update and Iphone4. When I try to download the new OS 5.1. Itunes tells me its having trouble connecting to the Iphone software update server and to check network connections or try again later.
    I have turned off virus software
    I am running directly from the modem
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes.
    I am getting nowhere with Apple tech support.
    I am running windows XP Media center edition version 2002 service pack 3
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:
