Help! I can only open Bookmarked sites.

When I try to open any site apart from a bookmarked one is says "Connection has timed out". This includes links from bookmarked sites. Help please!

Please make sure that your antivirus and firewall are configured to allow Firefox to make connections to the internet.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Full Screen mode with all toolbars hidden.
    * Press F11 to toggle full screen mode (Firefox/File > Full Screen)
    If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
    * If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    * If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • Help I can only have max. 3 osx apps. open at the same time ?

    Help I can only have max. 3 apps. open at the same time ?
    If I have 3 apps. open, and try to open a 4th. this message comes up :
    The application "Mail" cannot be launched. -10810
    Of cause if I'm trying to open up something else than mail, lets say iPhoto, it will say "iPhoto".
    This is very weird to me, and I'm normally pretty good at solving issues myself, but I'm stuck with this one.
    Please help out

    I've had this quite a lot too. Do you find that under these conditions you can't load a disk image either?
    At first I put this down to Rosetta taking up a lot of resources. I was running OmniWeb with a lot of pages open in the workspaces so I've switched back to Safari until OmniWeb is UB. This morning I read that having Windows file sharing switched on helps to cause this problem. I switched this off, rebooted and ran disk utility to repair disk permissions and I've been running OK since then. I've currently got 13 apps open plus Finder and Widgets. They include 2 bigguns, Eclipse/MyEclipse and Visual Paradigm for UML. It'll probably stop working now I've written that.
    I run a MBP 17 with 2GB memory. My guess is that Windows file sharing does cause problems. I just hope Apple has resolved this in 10.4.7... whenever that is.

  • I have a MacBook pro version 10.6.7 with snow leopard. After an scheduled software upgrade I could not open Quicken (It said it could not open the files). Now I can only open it if I have my external drive on. Can you help?

    I have a MacBook pro version 10.6.7 with snow leopard. After an scheduled software upgrade I could not open Quicken (It said it could not open the files). Now I can only open it if I have my external drive on. Can you help?
    All the information that I had input on Quicken is gone. I have to have the external hard drive that I use to back up to be able to use quicken now. It is as if it was erased from the laptop hardrive

    Try repairing permissions. My favorite way is with a utility called AppleJack. Info and download here. It's free. It only works when you boot in Single User Mode. When restarting or booting, hold down the Command key and S keys.
    You will get a very different startup screen that looks like the Terminal app has hijacked the screen. Just let the lines of text scroll by. When that happens you will get a text entry prompt. Type in "AppleJack" without the quotation marks.
    A DOS looking menu will appear. Choose 1 or d to run Disk Repair. If you get a message that Disk Repair found and corrected errors, run it again. Repeat until you get the "your disk appears to be ok" message. This rarely happens with my experience, though. This does the same thing as as booting from an external drive and running Disk Utility's repair. Only, no external drive is required!
    Next, choose 2 or p to repair disk permissions. This will take a little while. AppleJack warns that it will take up to an half hour to run repair permissions. It'n never taken more than about ten minutes for my MacBook Pro.
    As permissions are repaired, you will see each repair scroll on the screen. When done, the menu returns, choose q to quit. Then at the prompt, enter "exit" without the quotes. Your MacBook Pro should restart into Mac OS normally after this.
    Hope this helps.

  • Help!! Can only open apps when in safe mode.

    Help guys, my iPad can only open apps in safe mode. iOS 5.1.1 jailbroken,

    Your post indicates you have used Cydia, which is a software application for iOS that enables a user to find and install software packages on jailbroken iOS Apple devices. Since your iPad has been jailbroken, we can't help you in this forum. Best bet is to Google for answers.
    Unauthorized modification of iOS can cause security vulnerabilities, instability, shortened battery life, and other issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743
    If you jailbreak your iPad:
    1. Your Apple warranty, if any is remaining, is canceled.
    2. We can't help you in these forums.
    3. Apple Support and the Genius Bar won't help you.
    4. You can get a virus and malware.
    5. You may "brick your iPad and have an $$$ paperweight.
    What is Jailbreaking iOS? Should I do it?

  • Help! pagecentent.setAttributes, IE can not open the site

    Hi there,
    I have some scriplets in my jsp file.
    I the scriplets I used pagecontent.setAttribute("varname", varvalue) so that i can use varname in my jstl code.
    My jsp file is about getting some image file and print its string format.
    I run the url and it works at first, but after load the page several times, I got the error messge:
    Internet Explore can not open the site http://....
    I click refresh, sometime it works, some time not. The more times I load the page, the more often the error shows up.
    Does anybody have any ideas about this error?
    Does mix scriplet var with jstl var often cause problem?
    Thanks a lot.

    i think you might have to give a bit more detail...its easy to mark this as a IE configuration problem the way you have it....caching? does it behave differently if you 'click refresh' or hit F5? seems stupid but F5 always does a true page refresh. links and the refresh button seem to grab from cache even when they're not supposed to. i've also dealt with annoying proxy servers that ignore the response.setDateHeader ("Expires", 0); directive.
    i apologize if i'm on the wrong track, but any sort of java errors would usually show up in a log or something...see if you can find that to debug any syntax problems.

  • Can only open firefox once, have to restart to open more than one browser. can't upload any pictures the box doesn't pop up, my browser settings are diff now

    Firefox just changed out of nowhere. I can only open firefox once... I used to have atleast 2 browsers up using them both on different sites, but now I can't have but one firefox browser up (not tabs, but firefox pages) Also when I am trying to upload images on ebay or any other site nothing happens... nothing pops up. I click it over and over and nothing even pops up. This is exactly what happens with the firefox browser in my first question... I can click the firefox icon a million times and nothing comes up. My tabs are all gone and it doesn't show anything like I had before this all changed? Did I reset everything some how? I do not recall clicking anything to go back... I do remember clicking an update because it kept poping up so I did it and that is the last thing I remember before this happened! UGHHH!

    As I asked previously are you able to have tabs open as a window by using the right clicking option ?
    When you close Firefox you should use
    *'''Firefox button -> File -> Exit '''
    Are you doing that ?
    I suspect what may be happening is Firefox is hanging as it closes down.
    * see [[Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix#w_firefox-hangs-when-you-quit-it]]_firefox-hangs-when-you-quit-it
    * this explains how to check & if necessary kill the process [["Firefox is already running but is not responding" error message - How to fix it#w_end-firefox-processes]]_end-firefox-processes
    A related possible problem is that you may have built up many copies of the restore files. These are stored in the Firefox profile. The easiest method of finding the profile location istouse
    *use '''Firefox button -> Help -> Troubleshooting Information <br /> -> [Show Folder]'''
    *see [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]
    You need to look for the files ''sessionstore.js'' and numbered duplicates of that. Delete them.

  • How can I open a site in DW CS4?

    Hola
    I had been using GoLive for a long time, now I'm trying to learn  DW
    In Golive, when you make a site, the program automatically make a .site file
    with folders for everything.
    In DW CS4 I cannot find the .site file anywhere --I don't want to talk about all the folders that I have to make--
    I have made a couple of site in DW and about 10 to practice.
    Every practice website has a name --Web_1, Web2, etc--
    When I need to open the whole site in DW, I'm having a hard time
    For some reason I can not find the .site file anywhere.
    If I go to; site/manage site/import... the program is looking for the .site file and it's just not there
    in NON ONE of the sites that I have made.
    Where is it?
    Do DW made one .site file automatically and I just cannot find it?
    Do I need to make one myself every time that I make a site in DW?
    How can I open the WHOLE site and not just the index page in DW?
    I love the program, and I know that I'm going to need patiece and time to learn, so thank you for your help

    "I have a folder I called Sites, that I put all my sites into, so it would look like
    C:\My Documents\sites\newsite\
    Once you set that up, in your files panel (Window | Files), make sure that you are working within the correct site.
    HTH
    Gary"
    Hola Gary
    I have a folder like that, however, if I move to another folder exe:C:\sites
    is when I have problems.
    when I go to file\open, I have no option(s) to open the whole site
    Only in --Site\Manage site--is when I have the option,
    However, if I go to a different directory, I can only open the index file not the whole site...
    So, how can I do it?
    About the other answer that I got, I KNOW that this is not GoLive, I just mentione it because in --Site\Manage Sites -- the import command is "looking" for a .site file, so I thought  that DW makes one
    Thanks Gary for your help and all of you.

  • I downloaded the new iOS7 but i cant download my apps to my phone i can only open them up on iTunes any advice why?

    Why cant i download my apps no more i can only open them on iTunes does any help please thanks.

    Try rebooting your iPad and see if they reappear.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If they still do not show up, make sure hat you don't have content restrictions set that could prevent certain apps from showing up on your iPad. Settings>General>RestrictionsAllowed Content.
    if you still don't see them, connect your iPad to iTunes on your computer and you should see them in the iPad mini screens on the right side of iTunes after the iPad has been selected under "devices" and when you are in the apps pane of iTunes.

  • When opening a pdf file on my HP laptop, MS 8.1, i can only open or print one file.  I can't close the file once opened or open anuything else unless i restart the laptop.

    Help. Am not a techie, don't have a clue on fixing the issue.  I open a pdf. and when i try to open another, the original one comes up. Same for printing.  I can only open another pdf. after i reboot. 

    If you are not able to get Adobe Acrobat Reader to open .pdf files in the browser. Even after you check in prefs to show pdf files in the browser.
    Make this modification for all versions of Adobe Acrobat Reader that show under this key.
    -Note: Deleting the key and all subkeys for any older versions also seems to fix this problem. So if you see this key present,
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\7.0\Originals
    delete the 7.0 and all subkeys.
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals
    -Right click on Originals and choose NEW DWORD Value and name it bBrowserIntegration, hit enter,
    double click on the new value and make sure the value is 1

  • I can only open 1 .Ai file at a time from explorer

    Okay.  Googling is getting me nowhere and posting this is a last resort.
    computer is running:
    Windows 7 x64 SP1
    Creative Suite 5.5
    Illustrator 5.1
    The problem is:
    From within Windows Explorer, I can only open 1 Illustrator file at a time.  To get a different file to open, I either have to drag and drop the second file into the tabs under the menubar, or I need to quit Illustrator and re-open it.  Also,  I can not open additional files from Explorer one-at-a-time if one is already open.
    Quirks:
    If I go to File -> Open I can select multiple files from within the Open File dialogue window and they open just fine.  but i can't do it from within windows explorer.  This used to work and now it doesn't and I have no idea why.  Can anyone help me out?
    Seriously? 137 views and no replies?  No one has run into this before?

    This is a long shot but try going to Preferences/Type and uncheck "Show Font Names in English".
    Quit illustrator and restart, does it work now?
    The reason I´m suggesting this is that unless I have this box unchecked, some internal function in illustrator crashes after I´ve opened one document and I have to quit & restart if I wan´t to open another one. A rather silly bug and I stumpled upon the solution by accident after cursing illustrator for a couple of months...

  • Mail: I can only open one email at a time

    Using Mail, I have a very strange phanomenon: I can only open one email at a time. E.g. when writing a new email, I cannot open another email for reference. I need to close and save the new email as a draft before being able to open another one.
    It would be great if somebody could help me with this, thanks!

    Hi Cocolores,
    If you choose File > New Viewer Window from the menu bar in Mail, you can have as many email messages open as you like.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • ITunes tells me "Could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"  I can locate it and all my other music, but can only open one song at a time.  How do I set it to open all my music whenever I want it?

    iTunes tells me my song selection: "Could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?"  I can locate it and all my other music, but can only open one song at a time.  How do I set it to open all my music whenever I want?
    Message was edited by: Woildbill

    I just spent several hours dealing with this when switching to a new PC. It was extremely frustrating as I knew my files were on my external HD but no matter how many times I copied my old iTunes folder over the files were still missing...because dummy me had forgotten to "unhide folders" on my new PC and my old files were actually stored in a hidden folder created long long ago.
    This is how I did it on Windows 7 with iTunes 10
    1. Look in iTunes Advanced Preferences to see where iTunes is saving files. (Edit, Preferences, Advanced)
         Example: C:/Users/Woildbill/My Music/iTunes/Music
    2. Ensure you are able to see hidden files - Control Panel, Folder Option, View, Show Hidden Files
    3. Use Your Computer's Search Function to Locate the Missing File (Start, Search, type name of song - I started my search in "My Music" folder but be sure to expand to entire Computer if not found right away)
    4. In Search Results, right-click found folder and select properties. This will tell you where the file is actually stored.
    5. Use Windows Explorer (right-click start) to navigate to the location of the file. It is likley your other missing files are in the same location.
    6. In Windows Explorer, copy the newly located files to the iTumes location from Step 1 and everything should work again.
    Hope this helps!
