Hot Synch "hangs" after 2 of 12 tasks

I started using Windows 7 RC on my desktop, and Palm Hot Synch stopped working.
Now any time I try to do a hot synch, the bar stops at "2 of 12 completed" and if I hit cancel, noting happens. It just stays there. (This also applies if I'm trying to synch my XP machine.)
I"m using 6.2 version of the software.
Any chance Palm will come out with a version that will work with Windows 7?
Any way to recover?
Thanks,
Larry

You probably have data corruption in the datebook/calendar since it stops in the same place on both PC's. This is a common problem and there is a program that is available that will correct this issue.
Click on the following link for the program called DbFixiT. This program has a trial version that you can download and install on your Palm OS device. The trial version will scan for database corruption and then report the corruption. You can then find the records causing the problem and fix them yourself or you can purchase the program and have it automatically fix the records.
http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/dbfixit.htm
To install the program, set all conduits to "do nothing" except quick install or install if using Palm desktop 6.2.
After you install the program on the handheld, run the scan and also scan for Blobs in the calendar.
After you clean-up the database on the handheld, set the conduits in hotsync to handheld overwrites desktop and perform a hotsync.
For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

There are links on the page to the user guide, troubleshooting, how to's, downloads, etc.

  • Hot Synch won't turn on

    I have a Palm Centro (Verizon).  While performing a hot Synchronization my computer screen went blank.  I had to unplug & remove battery to restart my computer.  When I opened the palm desktop, my data was there except my contacts.  My phone still has contact list up to date as well as everything else.  The problem know is Hot Synch won't open and I get an error message saying " Hot Synch Manager had to close, do I wish to send an error report.  When I go to program files, Palm, Synchronization - The same message appears.  Not sure what happened or how to get hot synch turned back on.  I tried uninstalling all software and reinstalling, but nothing works.  Even did a computer restore, but nothing.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Ok, it looks like your datebook has corruption. When it "hangs" on a PIM conduit, it usually is caused by corruption, blobs in the calendar, records without data that was there at one point in time.
    There may be database corruption causing the issue. Click on the following link for the program called DbFixiT. This program has a trial version that you can download and install on your Palm OS device. The trial version will scan for database corruption and then report the corruption. You can then find the records causing the problem and fix them yourself or you can purchase the program and have it automatically fix the records.
    http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/dbfixit.htm
    When you install the program, set the conduit for datebook to do nothing. Run the trial version and it will show the corrupted records. You can then fix the records manually or purchase the program and have it repair the database for you. The program is only $12.95 but is invaluable when it comes to repairing the database. You should also run the scan for calendar blobs.
    After the repair of the database on the Centro, set the conduits in hotsync manager to handheld overwrites desktop.

    Is you data gone from the Palm Desktop and the device? Did you Hotsync more then once? See this procedure to recover data if you have not synced more the once with your Palm DT.
    You can recover the data from your user folder provided you have only sync'ed once with the PC when you discovered the data missing. When you sync to the PC there are files created for each PIM category in your user folder. For Example; datebook.dat or datebook (Depending on the version of Palm Desktop) and datebook.bak. Using 6.2 the file names are .mdb and mdb.bak. For 6.2, the files are located in the username folder in PalmOSdesktop in my documents.
    The files are named .dat and .bak. When you sync, the current data is stored in .dat. The next time you sync the data in the .dat file is copied to the .bak file. You can rename the .dat to .old. then rename the .bak to .dat. If the data in the .bak file is intact, it will now be in palm desktop when you reopen Palm desktop. I have included a link to show you how to find the userfolder on the PC.

    Here is another link regarding data loss;
    http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=39503
    The best way to backup your data is to use the export feature in Palm Desktop. Make a new folder on the PC desktop named Palm Desktop Backup data. Next, select the category you want to export. You will get a window that asks where you want to save the file, save in the folder created on the desktop. There is a button that allows you to select currently selected record or all, select all. If you don't select all, then only the record highlighted is exported. You will then need to name the file for export, I suggest the name of the category, eg: datebook (With current date). Do this for all critical data in each category. With the data exported to the folder on the PC desktop, you can save this data to a flash drive, external hard drive or a CD-RW. With this method you will have your data in a seperate place than Palm desktop and the device. If you "Lose" data again, you can import the data back into palm desktop.
    Make sure that when you make changes in palm desktop or the device to export the data to the folder created for the backup.

  • Hot Synch does not work, Treo 755p, USB, 17" Mac Pro Laptop, even with RevD installed and Allow other HotSynch applications preference check box checked

    Hi,
    I am a long time Palm enthusiast who is frustrated.  No more Palm products for me or anyone I speak to until I solve this problem.  Someone at Palm should be paying attention to their long time cusotmers.  I bought Palms in 2002 and 2003.
    The support literature coming with two Treo 755p that I bought was so poor that never saw the fine print that there was three months of support if I registered the devices.  The registration page does not let me register.  All the fields are ghosted after I put in the serial number.  I bought one in June 2008 and the other in early 2008.  So never registered and can get no help from Palm now it seems.
    So beside that gripe below is the problem issue info.
    I can't get a Verizon Treo 755p to USB cable Hot Synch with my daughters 17" Mac Pro Laptop.  It is using OS 10.5x  She lives in another city so I am trouble shooting this remotely.
    Did - Revd Palm upgrage has been installed.

    Did in advanced settings on the Treo select in the Synch preferences allow other Hot Sync applications.
    That process worked however on my own Treo 755p Verizon as below:
    After much work, hours over several months, I got my my Treo 755p Verizon to Hot Synch with a QuickSilver desk top Mac running os 10.5x. 
    Did the RevD upgrade.
    Did in advanced settings on the Treo select in the Synch preferences allow other Hot Sync applications.   Otherwise the Wireless Synch feature prevents a Hot Synch.
    Once those both were done than Hot Synch works fine, and Wireless Synch works fine and does not interfere.
    The Wireless on both PDAs is scheduled to be removed on both Treos due the economy on Feb. 4th, so I would like the HotSynch to be working so her Treo is backed up.
    Thanks so much to anyone who replies to help out.
    Best

    Works now, she had created a user ID as prompted when installing the HotSynch Software, but it was not the same name of the Treo 755p.  The default ID was the one she from installing the software, so it showed nothing in address or contacts, but when she switched to the Treo ID than all her stuff was there.

  • Hot Synch Crashed

    It happened again. While performing a hot synch my screen went blank, I restarted my computer and the message comes up that "hot synch app had to close".  I followed last set of instructions for a clean uninstall, deleted the proper reg keys, rebooted.   When I try to reinstall when it gets to the hot synch, the same message comes on.  This happened a couple of times since the last time i had to do a clean uninstall, but when i turned the computer back on it just said  "hot synch has just recovered from a crash some of your data might not be backed up".  I just performed another hot synch and everything was fine.  This time though hot synch will not turn on.

    Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
    Go through the same clean uninstall instructions again. If needed I can provide them. After you are done try installing Palm Desktop 4.1.4e version and see if you get the same results. We recommend if you are using XP, maintain the 4x software. The Palm Desktop 6.2 was built mostly for Vista. Here is a link for the 4.1.4e software: http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE/,/?St=2380,E=0000000000351594450,K=3959,Sxi=12,case=obj(3...)
    Don't forget the last " ) " or if anything copy and paste the link into your address bar.
    I hope this resolves your issue bud.

  • Workflow Hanging in between the Tasks

    Hi all,
    We are having problem with the workflow which are hanging in between the tasks. Yes, it is in between the tasks.
    the workflow structure have a fork with 4 braches, 3 out of 4 need to complete before the rest of workflow can contiune.
    one branch is already reached the end point, however 2 of the branch are stuck, all the related tasks within these 2 branches are completed, however they could not reach the end point.....bascially in the log, it shows the last step are completed, but for some unknown reasons, it didnt reach the end point of the fork.  I have checked the worfklow defintion, no more task are between this last step to the end of fork for both branch. (the fourth branch is for logical delete purpose). Current workflow status is 'In Progress'.
    Surely we have some more steps after the fork, that why I cannot let this workflow terminate at this point. Also as it had already done a lot of master data change before,  therefore I cannot simply restart the workflow from begin as well.
    I have try to the following method without any sucess, do anyone have other suggestion?
    1. SWPC
    2. Change the workflow to Error status and restart (SWPR)
    3. Execute all workflow runtime backjobs, ie. RSWWERRE, etc.
    4. Update runtime buffer
    5. Checked suspended workflow callbacks and deadline callbacks.
    6. All methods mentions in OSS note 1098805.
    Surely if you know how to terminate the FORK or in the table to force the FORK counter to reach 3, may be I can contiune this workflow. anyway, please help.
    Thanks in advance,
    Derek.

    Rick,
    Not really,
    1. one branch is already reached the end point
    2 and 3. Stuck (the last tasks were completed, no more task between them and the end fork)
    4. termination event.
    due to this client policy I cannot put up the image into some external site to show.
    basically the graphic log is looked like...for both 2 and 3. the green arrows start from the last step on the branch, but stop in the middle. cannot reach the end of fork that point.
    Look into definition, I can confirm that we have no more tasks there......
    Derek.

  • Lenovo T61 (Product 6458-W2R): explorer.exe hangs after logon - WinXP SP2

    +++ english below +++
    [german/deutsch]
    Wir setzen in unserem Unternehmen mehrere ThinkPad T61 ein.  Bei einigen dieser ThinkPad T61 (und nur beim ThinkPad T61!) haben wir inzwischen ein seltsames Phänomen, welches im Laufe der letzten 1-2 Monate auftrat und noch auftritt.  Dieses Phänomen trat nicht gleichzeitig auf, sondern nacheinander.  Und es tritt willkürlich auf.  Der jüngste Fall ist gerade 1 Tag alt.  Inzwischen sind 6 ThinkPad T61 davon betroffen.
    Alle ThinkPad T61 sind Mitglieder einer Domäne (Windows Server 2003) und durchlaufen ein Loginscript.  Das Loginscript beinhaltet Batchbefehle, Kix32 (für das Mappen von Netzwerklaufwerken und Druckern) und Teile der Matrix42 Empirum Management Software (für Softwaredistribution und Inventarisierung).  Es werden Gruppenrichtlinien angewendet.  Es werden via Matrix42 Empirum automatisch die neuen Patches und Updates seitens Microsoft auf alle Computer verteilt.  Alle Computer erhalten eine unbeaufsichtigte/standardisierte Installation via Matrix42 Empirum Management Software (ähnlich einem Image und der unbeaufsichtigten Windows-Installation).  Auf allen Rechnern ist Windows XP mit Service Pack 2 installiert.  Spezielle Software ist in der Regel nicht drauf, nur Microsoft Office 2003, der aktuelle Acrobat Reader sowie die aktuellen Standardplayer: Windows Media Player, Quicktime Player, RealPlayer, VLC media player.  Ggf. noch Nero 7 Standard bzw. Platinum (Spezielle Version).  Alle IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad verwenden zusätzlich die IBM/Lenovo-Utilities „ThinkVantage“.  Das Phänomen tritt unabhängig davon auf, ob das ThinkPad T61 in einer Dockingstation betrieben wird oder nicht.  Es ist auf jedem Computer in der Windows Registrierung eingestellt, dass der Desktop erst geladen wird, wenn das Loginscript durchgelaufen ist.
    Nun zur genauen Fehlerbeschreibung:
    Manchmal kann es bei einem Kaltstart vorkommen, dass nach der Anmeldung und nach dem Loginscript –während der komplette Desktop und die Startleiste bereits sichtbar sind und noch einige Dienste geladen werden– sich die explorer.exe aufhängt.  Die Startleiste lässt sich nicht bedienen.  Ebenfalls lassen sich dann auch auf dem Desktop keine Symbole doppelklicken.
    Wir setzen auch andere Computer ein, wo dieses Phänomen nicht auftritt, u.a.:
    - HP-Computer (Desktops, Evo SFF Series)
    - Fujitsu-Siemens-Computer (Desktops, ESPRIMO E Series)
    - IBM ThinkPad T20/21
    - IBM ThinkPad T40/T41/T42
    - IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T60
    Das Problem tritt nur auf den noch relativ neuen ThinkPad T61 auf.

    [english]
    Unfortunately, I’m not fluent in the english language.
    We use a few ThinkPad T61’s in our company.  Meanwhile, at some ThinkPad T61’s (only ThinkPad T61!) we have a strange problem. This problem appears since the last 1-2 months and it still does exist.  This problem does not appear at the same time, it does appear successive.  And it appears random.  The last case is 1 day old.  Meanwhile, 6 ThinkPad T61 are concerned.
    All ThinkPad T61 are members of a domain (Windows Server 2003) and do execute a logon script.  The logon script contains Batch commands, Kix32 (for mapping network drives and printers) and parts of the Matrix42 Empirum Management software (for software distribution and inventory scan).  Group policies will apply.  Patches and updates will install on every computer via Matrix42 Empirum automatically.  All computers get a default/unattended installation via Matrix42 Empirum Management software (everywhere between an image and an unattended Windows installation).  All computers have installed Windows XP with Service Pack 2.  As a rule, special software isn’t installed, only Microsoft Office 2003, the actual Acrobat Reader and the actual default players: Windows Media Player, Quicktime Player, RealPlayer, VLC media player.  Sometimes, there is installed the Nero 7 Standard or rather Platinum (Special Edition) yet.  All IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad use IBM/Lenovo-Utilities „ThinkVantage“ additionally.  The problem exists if the ThinkPad T61 is connected to a docking station and also if the ThinkPad T61 is disconnected from a docking station.  On every computer exists a registry key which arranges it that the desktop only will be loaded after the logon script did run.
    Now the detailed error description:
    Sometimes the explorer.exe hangs after the cold start.  i.e.: The desktop (with icons and task bar) appears complete.  But the computer hangs if you try to click on the task bar or double click on any icons.  The computer will only run if we kill the process ‘explorer.exe’ and if we restart the explorer.exe.
    We use also other computers with the same installation and the same group policies where the problem does not exist, for example:
    - HP-Computer (Desktops, Evo SFF Series)
    - Fujitsu-Siemens-Computer (Desktops, ESPRIMO E Series)
    - IBM ThinkPad T20/21
    - IBM ThinkPad T40/T41/T42
    - IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T60
    Only the new ThinkPad T61’s have this problem.
    We have found a similar case at…

    Vielen Dank / Many thanks!

    I would run System Update and make sure I had all the updates available.
    Another thing to try is:
    1. Right-click on My Computer and click Properties
    2. Click on the Advanced tab
    3. Click on Settings under Performance
    4. Click on Data Execution Prevention
    5. Click on Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select, then check Windows Explorer
    We had to do that to some machines here after a push from corporate of the new ScriptLogic.This solved the problem.

  • Oracle AS control hangs after user login - AIX 5.3

    Hi,
    We are engaged with a customer who deploys OracleAS 10.1.2.0.2 on AIX 5.3. After installation, AS control hangs after user logins. This issue is addressed in release note and metalink doc365725.1. We followed the guide in metalink to do the modification and we can access AS control successfully after that. However, due to some other reasons, we restart the AIX, and after that AS control hangs again. This is quite strange. Does anyone meet with this symptom before? How can we resolve this issue?
    Thanks in advance.
    Sindhiya V.

    Thanks everyone for the response and help.
    I completed the task yesterday with the permission method. However, I think I found the solution after completion. The trick lies at the oraInst.loc file. It lies at /etc directory for my case (AIX 5.3).
    If you do a opatch lsinventory, it shows you the Central Inventory location and the location of orainst.loc. For my case, it is pointing to /oracle/DE1/920_64/inventory. Therefore, even though I am logging in as oraqa1 with all env and oracle settings correct, it still points to DE1 inventory.
    I think modifying the Central inventory location in oraInst.loc will solve this problem.

  • Itunes hang after latest updates

    Since the last updates to my iMac iI find that the iTunes is constantly Hanging. It does not matter if I'm not using iTunes, as soon as its working in the background it hangs sooner or later. When I work with my music files in iTunes it usually hangs after less than 30 minutes.
    How can this be?
    I do not want to start with a new music player since I have used iTunes for the last 10 years and I have all my music in it.
    But the way its acting now it seem like I have to use something else since iTunes is simply not working properly.

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a general summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a particular line of text to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    These are not specific instructions; just an overview. The details are in parts 7 and 8 of this comment. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time.
    5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
    You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. Load this linked web page (on the website "Pastebin.") The title of the page is "Diagnostic Test." Below the title is a text box headed by three small icons. The one on the right represents a clipboard. Click that icon to select the text, then copy it to the Clipboard on your computer by pressing the key combination command-C.
    If the text doesn't highlight when you click the icon, select it by triple-clicking anywhere inside the box. Don't select the whole page, just the text in the box.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window to activate it. Paste from the Clipboard into the window by pressing command-V, then press return. The text you pasted should vanish immediately.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
    [Process started]
            Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
            Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
            The test results are on the Clipboard.
            Please close this window.
    [Process completed]
    The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
    Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
    12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "The message contains invalid characters." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but whatever else you're told to do may not be. For others who choose to run it, I don't recommend that you post the test results on this website unless I asked you to.

  • Mail hangs after a few seconds

    Just this evening, about an hour after I downloaded the MobileMe update, my Mail app started hanging after about 4 seconds. Totally unresponsive, beachball of doom etc requiring a force quit. I've tried most of the suggestions I can find here (deleting To-do lists, turning off synching, moving plists, repairing drives etc) but nothing seems to work.
    Logic points to the MobileMe update (I have a new 3G iPhone that seems to be working and synching ok), but I'm kind of stuck with no mail on my main machine and was wondering if there was anything else I could do rather than sit in and wait for an Apple update (providing there will be one).
    Many thanks in advance (and apologies if I've pasted the wrong part of the report here -I had no idea what to post)

    First of all, don't be trying random solutions unless you know what you're doing and why; you'll create a lot of trouble for yourself, and often it can't be fixed without a radical, time-consuming solution.
    You seem to have httpmail running as a Bundle for Mail; disable it and then try starting Mail again to see if that resolves the problem. If so, that means you'll have to delete it, since it is conflicting with Mail and will cause it to hang or crash.

  • Firefox hangs after answering yes to Firefox 4 upgrade

    Today when My wife started Firefox from her account she was presented with a window asking if she wanted to update to Firefox 4. She answered yes. At that point Firefox (v3.6.16) became unresponsive with no indication that anything was happening. After some time she tried to shut down Firefox by clicking the X in the upper right corner of the window. She then got the Windows End Program box stating that the program was not responding and allowing her to shut the program down.
    She then restarted Firefox and after what seemed to be a normal start up with the home page being displayed, Firefox would again hang after selecting a bookmarked site.
    When my wife called my attention to this problem, I decided to try it from my Windows XP account to see if the problem only happened in her account. When I first opened Firefox, I briefly saw a progress bar indicating Firefox was being updated. Firefax then opened and loaded two tabs, my home page which is set to the google.com/firefox start page and the same Firefox 4 anouncement page that my wife got when she first started Firefox. When I then selected most bookmarked web sites or even the Firefox Support link on the home page, Firefox would hang and require ending the task to exit. Terminating Firefox in this manner, and restarting Firefox produced the same result. Rebooting the PC after terminating Firefox also produced the same result. Using IE8 to visit the same web sites was successful and resulted in no hangups. In fact, I am currently using IE8 to post this question.
    After restarting and trying many web sites, I did find some sites that opened normally. One was the About Mozilla link on the home page and another was a local weather site: wunderground.com.
    I also ran Firefox in safe mode from the command line and got the same hanging which I understand indicates that the problem is not being caused by any plugins or extensions.
    Any suggestions as to how I can fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the suggestions. As it turned out Firefox seemed to fix itself!!! First I must add that I don't believe that my wife clicking on the Firefox 4 update button had anything to do with the hangups. There was no indication that anything had been downloaded. Firefox would start normally but hang when trying to load most web sites. Usually a progress bar would be displayed at the bottom of the page that would never completely load. Clicking on the "Stop loading this page" button would only result in the Firefox symbol at the top left corner turning to a white square and Firefox would become non-responsive requiring an end task to shut down. It acted like an Internet problem but as I reported before, when I tried the same sites in IE they loaded properly. Also rebooting had no immediate effect.
    As I kept trying in my account, more and more web sites started to load properly. After a couple of days, there were no more hang ups occurring at all in my account. The only changes I had made was to disable a couple of extensions: DownloadHelper and Freecorder Community Toolbar in my account. These were never installed in my wife's account and had no immediate effect after disabling them. Unfortunately, Firefox would still hang in my wife's account. She had changed the default browser to IE and when I opened Firefox in her account I got the message box asking if I wanted to change the default to Firefox. At that point clicking on anything resulted in a hang as before. I even tried setting the default browser back to Firefox in Windows "Set Program Access and Defaults" and rebooting but got the same result when I tried running Firefox again.
    Now, after doing nothing to Firefox for a couple of days, Firefox is working correctly in both accounts??? I did notice a lot of hard drive activity during the time I was working this problem. Hmmm.
    I use Norton 360 v4 as my security protection on this machine. They have now released v5 which I am about to upgrade to. I wonder if their LiveUpdate was doing something that affected Firefox?
    I think I will wait awhile before trying to update to Firefox 4.

  • LabVIEW 8.20 hangs after selecting a custom icon in the app builder

    I have been trying to build an executable that uses a custom icon file.  The multi-resolution icon has worked previously in LV7.1.  Whenever I select the custom icon in the build specifications, I can build the executable, but LabVIEW then hangs after that and I can only close it using the Task Manager.  All works fine until I change from the default LabVIEW icon.  And because LabVIEW hangs after selecting the icon, I cannot save the project with the new build specification.

    Hello,
    the thing is that even if I create the 256color icon after I save it and close icon editor it takes the 16color icon anyway. If I create an ico file that contains only one icon 32x32 256c Labview displayes warning (see warning.png) and uses default icon for 16c and nothing for black and white (see selected.png)
    So how to force Labview to use 256c icon
    LV 2011, Win7

  • System hangs after launching P2P

    Hi,
    I have just installed a K7N2 Delta MB with a 2500+ Athlon and a 3200 DDR (PQI) of 512 Mo. My OS is WinXP SP1.
    Everything works very fine until I load a P2P (emule).
    I had not this problem with my defunct Elite MB (with a 1800 Athlon and a 2100 DDR).
    I have an ADSL connection via an ECI USB modem.
    WinXP and the MB Bios and drivers are updated (using Win update and MSI Live monitor). I have also updated the VIA chipsets with VIAHyperion4in1446vp6 and updated the NVidia drivers/programs SINCE the USB host controller is an NVIDIA one (therefore the VIA USB 1.1 cannot be installed)
    I have uninstalled/re-installed all my USB ports and also closed the LPT port.
    The ADSL modem is connected to an hub while I have connected my optical mouse to a separate USB port (since MSI writes that the mouse consumes a lot of energy).
    I have aloso enabled the USB in the Bios and even the KB USB whereas I do not have an USB KB (I had the same problem when the KB USB was not enabled).
    The BIOS indicates an 100 FSB.
    What should I do?
    Thank you in advance.
    (pardon my approximate English and technical languages).

    Sharp,
    I have re-installed WinXP, installed the Nvidia updates (and the MSI and Win XP ones) and installed a more recent and more efficient ADSL connection driver.
    However, eMule hangs after less than 1 minute with a 166 mHz as well as with a 133 mHz FSB (this means: I cannot close it with the Task Manager and I am obliged to re-boot WinXP.
    Moreover, the CPU temperature climbs quickly to 60°C at 166 mHz.
    I know that I could solve the temperature problem by installing a new fan. However, I am not certain that this would solve the hanging one (although one may think that it's the temperature that leads to the hanging.
    I have discovered in the eMule forum that other people with other configurations encounter the same difficulties as me. Therefore, their solutions will probably not be found on this site.
    Thank you for your availability.

  • Hot Synch with Windows XP and MS Office 2007

    I can not synchronize my Palm Treo 680 Unlocked with Windows XP Home and MS Office 2007.
    I see several comments regarding Outlook 2007. Is resolving the synchronization of Outlook 2007 the same solution as Office 2007?
    If so what is the solution?
    Post relates to: Treo 680 (Unlocked GSM)

    I also cannot synch my Palm Treo 680 unlocked with Outlook 07 using Vista.  It says "Hot Synch Operation Completed Successfully", but nothing did synch.  I downloaded palmoutlook07conduits.zip and there was no change.  I was synching wirelessly using Microsoft Exchange Active Synch without problems, but when I cancelled my 'data' package on my cell phone, it no longer was synching.  I tried reloading my original Palm CD, but it doesn't allow me to select 'Outlook' as my connectivity.  Please help.  And please don't provide me with a bunch of acronyms as I won't understand them!!!!
    Thanks,
