I am constantly getting hte "connection has been reset" message. I followed instructions in the help section for this & now it's worse. I am using 6.0. Please help!
I cannot do anything online because I constantly get the "connection has been reset" message. This has never happened before. I followed instructions on Firefox help page for this message and it only made it worse!
Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last ever version of Firefox for Win98 / SE / ME.
You can get it from here, but you are better off using K-Meleon (derived from Firefox) or Opera instead an old version of Firefox:
[ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/win32/en-US/]
You can try KernelEx to get Firefox 3+ to work, but it would be very slow with an old PC of less than 750Mhz. 3.5 and later supposedly doesn't work.

The only way I'm able to use Google and YouTube is by using HTTPS, but the thing is that by using HTTPS, I can only use SSL Google, which lacks Images and several other useful features.
As for YouTube, it's perfectly normal.
Wikis load like snails, and some don't even load at all. Not even with the HTTPS. Also, when I try to update Java, it tells me that my Internet Connection Settings are wrong. Not sure if that's the problem, though.
If it's any plugin I'm missing, I'll gladly install it (just don't trick me into viruses, please).
I've already cleaned my cookies (15 times, no kidding), checked the firewall, etc.
I haven't checked my Internet Settings because I don't want to screw things more than they already are. But I doubt that's the problem.
I checked for viruses, spyware, and the like, but my anti-virus software (ESET) detected nothing.
I've also went to the Network "Repair" in "My Computer" and restarted my PC twice.
I really need things back to normal, so any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks.'''FIRST''' Install a new version of Acrobat.
Then....
1. Go To '''Firefox''', '''Preferences'''

I'M SORRY FOR THE CAPS BUT I HAVE OLE EYES, ARTHRITIS AND CARPEL TUNNEL!!!!
I STARTED HAVING THIS PROBLEM A FEW WEEKS AGO AND IT HAS PROGRESSED TO TOTALLY BLOCKING ME FROM GETTING INTO MY YAHOO GROUPS AT ALL!!! EVERY TIME I TRY IT GIVES ME THIS SAME MESSAGE AFTER IT TELLS ME AT THE BOTTOM THAT IT IS CONNECTED TO THE GROUP -
The connection was interrupted
The connection to groups.yahoo.com was interrupted while the page was loading.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
THE CONNECTION IS OK - BUT I DON'T KNOW ABOUT FIREWALLS AND PROXY THINGS BUT I GET ALL THE OTHER SITES I LOG TO!
THIS ALSO KEEPS HAPPENING WHEN I TRY TO ACCESS FACEBOOK BUT IT DOES LET ME IN SOMETIMES?!?!
I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO OR WHERE TO LOOK ON MY SYSTEM TO FIX THIS (NEED COMPUTERS FOR DUMMIES 100!!!! 101 IS TOO ADVANCED!!!!) I'M ON AN HP 2000 NOTEBOOK PC WITH WINDOWS 8.
THANKS FOR ANY HELP!!!!

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
See:

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)

After updating my Iphone 4s to os 7.1.1 from 7.1 over the air, my phone went into recovery mode. Yet when I try to restore it with Itunes on my windows 7 laptop it says the network connection has been reset. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network is active, or try again later. My phone has the itunes logo and charger symbol on it, as well as an arrow pointing at the Itunes logo. After holding the sleep button down or even doing the hard reset the same screen comes up on my phone regardless of whether it is plugged in or not to my computer. I have turned my computer off and on again. It is plugged in and charging as it's battery life is very short. I also reset my modem and the same error message pops up. The only option on my computer when my phone is plugged in is to restore it. My firewall also allows Itunes through it. I have literally tried everything I know being someone who knows very little about technology. I also do not want to hear about how the update worked for other people. My phone has been in recovery mode for 5 hours at least now so it will just make me more frustrated if a bunch of people post about how the update worked for them.
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...

how can i get it out of recovery mode?
Make sure you have the Current Version of iTunes Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
Then See Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
Some users have reported as many as 8 or 9 attempts were necessary before success.
After you have Recovered your Device...
Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...
Restore from Backup > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
If the issue persists...
Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
Be sure to make an appointment first... -
ITunes network connection has been reset: Anyone know the meaning?
Within the past 2 days I have started receiving a "Network connection has been reset" error message when trying to purchase new apps or updating already purchased apps. Does anyone have better insight than I into its meaning and purpose? Thanks!
+I have dial up so i don’t know if this might be causing the problem, is there anyway to fix this?+
Sounds like the dial=up connection is dropping. My advice is to get it from a friend's house that has high speed internet. Put the iTunes Setup.exe file on a USB memory stick, take it to your PC and drag it to the desktop. Then run the install. -
Itunes can not complete request, the network connection has been reset
iTunes can not complete my download request for video slammer, the network connection has been reset, why I'm I getting this problem?
Apple's servers are probably very busy. You may want to wait for a little while before trying again.

TS1424 network connection has been reset
having trouble downloading songs from itunes on my computer. I keep getting an error that reads "network connection has been reset".
I'm sorry i can't be of help but i can relate because I'm having the same problem.
The error message occurs when I login to buy music and says:
"We could not complet your iTunes Store request. The network connection was reset. Make sure you network connection is active and try again."
I'm having no internet problems at all... maybe this error is due to the recent patch/update? i bought music a couple days ago and was fine, and now I can't log in. HELP! -
Why do I keep getting an account has been disabled message when trying to redeem a gift card?
Why do I keep getting an account has been disabled message when trying to redeem a gift card? Have gone back through account settings and don't see any problems with the account. I have both mine and my daughter's account under mine.
See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2446. If resetting the password doesn't fix things, you'll probably have to contact iTunes store support for assistance: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

I try download movie from purchased items on itunes but continues to stop. A box pops up saying connection has been reset. How do I fix problem?
kapots3v4,
if your MacBook Pro doesn’t stay active long enough to perform an OS X Internet Recovery, then you should make an appointment at your nearest Apple store or Apple-authorized service provider to have them diagnose what’s ailing it. -
Firefox suffering from "connection has been reset" and other problems
Running 14.0.1 under Linux. It has started to suffer from the "connection has been reset" problem...sometimes 2 or 3 times in sucession. In addition on many sites clicking the "back" arrow does noting...until I click it several times. Seems like FF is ignoring it.
Happens in safe mode and is driving me crazy because I can't reproduce it.Does anything unusual show in the Net log of the Web Console (Web Developer > Web Console; Ctrl+Shift+K) ?
You can ignore the usual CSS errors (i.e hide them) to make it easier to check the Net log -
I've just tried to connect a new ipod to the app store and I'm told that the connection has been reset by peers, anyone know what this means.

I am unable to access my email from Charter.net. I can sign in with my password, then a message comes up which says "The plug-in for this page has been disabled. Click here to manage your plug-ins." All of my plug-ins are enabled. What am I missing?
After a great deal of searching I ran across the suggestion to disable all plug-ins and then, one by one, enable them until finally the problem was solved. I am not sure which plug-in was causing the problem, as I am satisfied to have the problem solved. I am going to leave the rest of the plug-in disabled.

apple wont give me a new phone cause I broke the screen and I replaced it my self.
Correct. When you did that, you voided all warranty/support, & forfeited the right to an out of warranty replacement.
There was nothing wrong with the screen I bought,
And, exactly, how do you know that? Since Apple DOES NOT sell iPhone parts, there is no official source for genuine parts. Thus, many on the market are counterfeit & produce nothing but problems.
Good luck. -
I have a message on my IPad saying " IPad not backed up - This IPad hadn't been backed up. Backups happen when this IPad is plugged in, locked and connected to Wi-Fi. I am unable to activiate the OK button for this message or slide to unlock my IPad
Try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I tried to purchase a song through iTunes just now, and received the above error message about the network connection being reset. I also can't download to iTunes several Apps that have been purchased on my iPad and iPhone. I am using a PC with Windows 7. Thoughts? Thank you.
Disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall during the download and update usually resolves the timeout error.
