I am having serious issuse trying to open websites or links which i have never had before

I am having serious issues trying to open websites/pages or links which i have never had before. For instance when i open Firefox and my tabs start to load, sites such as Yahoo, Gamespot or Fox News struggle to open (these are just an example of a wider picture) Other times Firefox just freezes either for Minutes on end or completely until it either crashes or i have to task manage out of it. Firefox has total privelages through both my antivirus software and the in built Microsoft firewall. I never used to have this problem and speaking to some friends some of them are experienceing the same thing and due to the lack of help from Firefox have reverted to using Explorer. I do not recieve any error messages or messages stating there are problems with any of the sites that struggle or fail to open. I have tried disabling all add-ons and starting Firefox in save mode but no luck. I have also tried to change the settings in Options / Privacy - History from Remeber History to Use custom settings for history but this just keeps reverting back to original setting. Any help would be greatly appreciated as i don't want to return to using Windows Explorer.

FF4 has problems with script-heavy sites. There are two solutions:
1) Downgrade to 3.6
OR
2) Use a different broser

    No I didn't even read through your post, to long.
    You said that "No matter what program I try to install, as soon as the installer opens it crashes". Were you talking about the install for this/these 3D programs or ANY program? As it is worded it sounded like ANY program. That tells me there is a problem with your Mac, software or hardware.
    Now you say others install programs, which is it. Programs other then the 3D ones install or no programs install?
    Could simply be your Mac is to old to run these programs and the installer knows that. You never said what model or year Mac it is.

  • Some website's which i have never visited before randomly open in a new tab. this causes the mouse image to flicker. How do I block these sites from opening?

    This is an example of one of the sites that pops up in a new tab without me having visited it before wanting it to open causing the mouse image to flicker.

  • TS4062 I am trying to sync my iTunes music playlists to my husband's Ipod, which I have never done before...I only have been placing music on my Ipod.  The music is not going onto his Ipod....why?

    I usually sync songs to my own Ipod....Ipod Nano.  My husband gave me his Ipod Classic and I want to put some of my songs onto it.  I plugged it into my computer and thought it would automatically sync.  The message did show up on the Ipod....Do Not Disconnect....but there are no songs on the Ipod.  I cannot click the sync option either....it is not highlighted.

    Hi Carollmt,
    I love sharing playlists with people too.  The instructions for syncing an iPod can be found at the following link:
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1351
    If is the first time you are syncing your husband's iPod with your computer, it will remove his music currently on his iPod and replace it with the music you are trying to sync.  If you don't want to remove the music currently on your husband's iPod, you can transfer your music to his iTunes library using Home Sharing.  Expand the Home Sharing section in the following article for steps to setup Home Sharing and use it to transfer music:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer

    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. 
    Best,

  • Why am I having to restore my phone for the new update? I have never had to do this.

    New Update Problem

    I did the normal by pressing the Install button and it went black and said plug into iTunes. I did that and the only option I had was to restore my phone. I tried reseting it and shutting it down and it just went black and then back to the screen that says plug into iTunes.

  • I am having serious issues trying to alter my old iCloud account with an old non-functioning email to my new apple id with a new email address. The message keeps coming up on all my apple products with my old email (which is not available anymore).

    I am having serious issues trying to alter my old iCloud account with an old non-functioning email to my new apple id with a new email address. The message keeps coming up on all my apple products with my old email (which is not available anymore).

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

    I shoot with a Canon 7D, have Windows 7 installed on my computer, Adobe CS4 (Bridge & Photoshop). I'm trying to open the CR2 files in Bridge to adjust them before I open them up in Photoshop, but it's giving me an error code saying it's the wrong file type. I downloaded the latest updates for Adobe Raw as well as the DNG converter, however I don't want to have to convert to DNG before opening in Bridge. Please let me know what I can do to open the CR2 files directly in Bridge CS4, thank you!

    Make sure you have the right version...

    Installed product - with license. Tried to open. It crashes. I have a MAC with Yosemite. Thoughts? Adobe "help" website is useless.

    Sorry I'm not being clear enough.  I appreciate your patience...  I did that already ... downloaded the software successfully from my account in CC.  Put in the serial number when asked. All went well with the installation process. Went to launch the software and get the message I sent to you as an attachment.

    After moving all photographs from my first catalogue, which was a mess, to a new catalogue, it all worked fine. Until that is I tried to open the new catalogue, which had worked OK all day. I now get a window that says "Unexpected error, select another catalogue."

    OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
    Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences  - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

    Make sure all of the videos used in the project that is having that problem are from the same event. If they are from multiple events, move them all into one event.

  • I am trying to pay my bill online.  However, when I click the "submit" key, it tells me my "nickname" is incorrect.  What the heck is a nickname?  I have never had this trouble before.

    I am trying to pay my bill online.  However, when I click the "submit" key, it tells me my "nickname" is incorrect.  What the heck is a nickname?  I have never had this trouble before.

    Had the same problem. Here's how I sorted it out, not including yelling at my PC or ranting in my own thread (that's optional): First you want to delete your saved payment option. If you try this and it does not delete, log out and back in. It should be gone. Now re-enter your payment option (credit card number or whatever you are using) and if it asks if you want to save the data for future use, make sure you give it a nickname that doesn't include any special characters. Hope this works for you!
