I am getting this proxy server error message when i first login to firefox. how do i fix it?

The proxy server is refusing connections
Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.
Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
options/advanced/network/settings it says manual proxy checked at 127.0.0.1 port 55495.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

You can find the connection settings in Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection
If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select "No Proxy" if the default "Use the system proxy settings" setting doesn't work.

  • I get a pop-up error message when I try to open Firefox

    Whenever I try to open Firefox (latest version installed today), I get a pop-up error message that reads: TypeError: Componentsclasses['@mozilla.org/gmailnotifier;'] is undefined.
    When I click the OK button, Firefox opens and operates fine. How do I get rid of that?

  • Get 500 Internal Server Error message when attempting to open Firefox.

    Firefox working fine until last week. Cannot connect. Only receive error message. Uninstalled & re-installed. Same error message. Windows 7, Zone Alarm. Explorer 8.

    Hi,
    According to your description, there is a 500 internal server error when you select any Option in your OWA.
    Based on my research, we can try the following steps:
    1.  Check whether Virtual Directories Authentication configured properly. Enable the ECP Virtual Directory with Anonymous and Basic Authentication.
    2.  Check on the Application Pools to view whether ECP Application Pool is running on .NET Framework v4.0. It maybe the incompletely installation of Framework that causes this error.
    If so, We can try to run the following command as Administrator:
    %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe -i
    Or change the MSExchangeECPAppPool from .NET Framework from v4.0 to v2.0. Then restart IIS.
    If you have any question, please do not hesitate to tell me.
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks,

  • I get an update server error message when i try to update my phone. I've uninstalled iTunes and all related software in the proper order and then reinstalled with security software disabled. no what?

    I could use some help. Apple support walked me through the uninstall and reinstall of all iTunes and Apple files in the proper order with my security software disabled. I still get the following message:
    "The iPhone software update server could not be contacted. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later."
    Any ideas? I'm on a Dell i5 Core with Windows 7.

    Thanks.  I have followed all the instructions as recommended and nothing has worked so it looks like the restore/update may have been interrupted - would loss of internet connection do this?
    Yes it would, possibly even brick it.
    Have successfully connected my ipod nano with iTunes so looks like the device driver is working.
    Can I use my ipod nano USB connector to check?
    It is not much help to you, since the device that you need still not recognized.
    Anyway looks like I may have to swallow the loss of data.  Have set-up a call for tomorrow with Apple support so will wait until after this before doing the factory restore!
    Good luck, but if you expect miracle from that call good luck again.

    Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
    If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

    I was recently trying to upgrade to mountain lion through the app store.  I have unreliable Internet from a cable company whom I will not name, but we all know who they are.  My Internet dropped while downloading the upgrade.  Once I went through the notorious unplug the modem/router and plugged it back in to gain Internet connectivity again, I could not resume. No matter what I did, the app store kept displaying "an error occurred." I am hoping that those with the same issue read this first to save them hours of skimming through the Internet to find a solution.  Here are the steps to take:
    1. Make sure you have reestablished Internet connection
    2. Chances are you got frustrated when you tried to resume/unpause the download and clicked the "X" to the left.  If so, select the "Store" drop-down menu from the App Store and select "View My Account." There should be an option to unhide your purchase.  You know what to do.
    3. There is also an option to  reset all warnings for buying and downloading under "View My Account." Do this, click "Done," sign out of the App Store and quit the App Store.
    4. Open the Preferences in safari and select Privacy.  Select "Remove All Website Data."  Just do it.
    5. Launch the app store and sign in.
    6. Now, if you "Check for Unfinished Downloads" everything works peachy.
    I hope this helps.  Not much I can do for your Internet connection though.

  • I am getting an un expected error message when updating the setting to "extend network".  Is there an obvious setting I may be missing?  Cisco router being used.

    I am getting an un expected error message when updating the setting to "extend network".  Is there an obvious setting I may be missing?  Cisco router being used.

    If you are trying to "extend" using wireless only, you may not be aware that Apple designed the "extend" feature as a proprietary setting to only work with other Apple routers.
    It is extremely unlikely that this will work with a Cisco router.
    If your plans call for connecting the AirPort Express to the Cisco router using a wired Ethernet connection, it should be possible to configure the Express that way.

  • Hard drive says I have more than 300 GB available with a 500 gb capacity. Yet I get "Low Disk Space" error messages when I do anything.

    Hard drive says I have more than 300 GB available with a 500 gb capacity. Yet I get "Low Disk Space" error messages when I do anything.
    Attempted solutions:
    -I created a new User Account and I can download large files with no issues.
    -I ran "Repair Disk Permissions" but still get warnings.
    Google Drive Warning:
    Spotify Warning:        
    But on my other user account I can use spotify and download large files, etc.

    Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • When i go to burn a dvd, it gives an error message "menu duration exceeds 15 minutes." how can i fix this??

    When I go to burn a dvd, imovie displays an error message, "menu duration exceeds 15 minutes.  How do I fix?

    You may have too many chapters (scene selections), or perhaps one or more of the menus are looping for too long. Each menu in its standard form generally runs for no more than 30 seconds before repeating. In any of the menus have you inserted your own music that runs for a much longer duration? If so, using the Inspector, reduce the music time to 30 seconds (there is a slider you can adjust).
    Regarding chapters - how many do you have in the project? You may need to delete some markers in your iMovie project. In most of the iDVD themes each scene selection page allows up to 6 scenes. So, for example, if you have 50 scenes marked, the theme would require 9 scene selection pages. I really don't know what the maximum is, but clearly you've run over the 15 minute limit for the iDVD menus. It may be a combination of too many chapters and music looping for too long on one or more of the menus.

    Not related to your question, but...
    It is important that you keep IE updated. The information included with your question, indicates that you are using IE7; you should update to IE8 for your own protection. IE9 will not be made available for Windows XP.

  • Anyone getting this pop up error message after installing Lion?

    After installing Lion I now get random pop up error messages that say...There was a problem connecting to the server. URL's with the type "file" are not supported. I have to keep closing them. Any ideas what to do?

    Actually, In my case, turning off Time Machine didn't help. I had the same problem. We definitely traced it to Time Machine. The "Fix" was this: plugged in and designated different external HD as Backup volume. Then unplugged it and plugged in the original disc (after testing in in a different machine) and now the computer recognized it and error message stopped popping up. The Apple tech was as puzzled as I as to why this worked, but perhaps, forcing the machine to re-recognize it (or maybe even gettting it recognized by a different machine first) somehow worked some magic.
