I can no longer load Google since I upgraded to the new version of fierfox & its definitely not anything to do with my firewall. How do I figure out what the problem is?

I upgraded to Firefox 4 and every time I try to open the home page with the Google search bar teh connection times out and its unable to connect. If I type any other address in the address bar it will open up the site, it's only Google it won't open. I've worked through every step on the Firefox support page and checked all my settings, run scans for malware, checked the firewall settings etc and even with my firewall, antivirus & spam filters all turned off I still can't open Google. I even uninstalled Firefox 4 and went back to version 3.6.16 but still have the same problem. Will I ever be able to Google again? Is there anything else I can try? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    Try This - Renew IP Address:
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • My iTunes is no longer working.  I uninstalled and reinstalled but the program won't open and run.  I was trying to download an mp3 file last evening and I think something has been deleted that I need to open the iTunes.  How do i figure out what is gone

    I uninstalled and reinstalled but the program still won't open.  I was trying to download an mp3 file last evening.  Instead the site tried to install a new audio player.  I did not want it so uninstalled it immediately.  I think in that process something was deleted that I need for iTunes but I do not know what.  How do i figure out what is gone and recover it?
    I did try a system restore - but that was not a fix either.

    I was trying to download an mp3 file last evening.  Instead the site tried to install a new audio player.
    Ackk ... that behavior is consistent with the play_mp3.exe trojan:

    Try downloading and installing the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware. Update your MBAM definitions and then run a full scan of the PC. (Takes about 2 hour on my Lenovo.)

    Does the scan find any infections? If so, please paste the contents of the log file for the scan in a reply here so we can have a look.

    That was probably caused by your Firewall blocking the newly installed version of Firefox.
    No known security issues with Firefox 3.6.17, which was just released this past week.

    Oh ok, well that was what the test said prior to reformatting the hard drive. Now, it doesn't find any trouble no matter how many times I run it. That's what has me so confused, everything seems to check out and yet...I can't do anything, not even install the software!

  • I have a mac osx 10.4 and all the new versions of fire fox are not compatible with my computer, how can upgarade so I can get to my gmail account, etc?

    I can't access my email on firefox , it states that I am using an old version of firefox that is no longer compatible with gmail, however when I try to upgrade to a newer version I get a window that says that my computer is not compatible with the new version. Is there one that is??

    Current Firefox versions require a Mac with an Intel processor and OS X 10.6 (Firefox 16 runs on Intel Mac OS X 10.5).
    *http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/25.0/system-requirements/
    For an unofficial Firefox 17.0.10 ESR compatible version that runs on a PowerPC Mac with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at TenFourFox.

  • Thunderbird can no longer send messages since latest upgrade

    Sending a new message, or replying to old messages is not possible: Thunderbird hangs forever, and cannot be closed (not even with Windows 8.1 Task manager. There is no Thunderbird Error log written. In Safe Mode the same happens. A forced windows reboot is the only way to stop this. Anti-virus does not check outgoing mail. Using pop and yahoo, and also gmail/IMAP; the yahoo and gmail accounts (web mail) are fine.
    please suggest a solution as without Thunderbird I am helpless (there are 20 years worth of messages in the subfolders!)
    UPDATE: I reinstalled Version 30 and now the problem is gone and I can send normally. Anyone has any ideas what is going on? Why can''t I send mail using the latest version of Thunderbird?
    I am requesting a reply, please. Thunderbird is no longer workable. The problem came back and sending a message takes 5+ minutes. I've disabled add-ins (safe mode), and antivirus doesn't check outgoing messages. There are no error logs written; TB just hangs and does nothing, and then fails to send.

  • I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless i install new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto so negative. Should I install it or steer clear of it??

    I have a Mac OSx 10.6.8 and iPhoto 7.1.5 and can no longer order printed photo albums unless I update to new version of iPhoto. But reviews of new iPhoto are so negative that I am uncomfortable about buying it. Will it be fine or should I steer clear of trouble and accept that i can no longer publish my photos?

    iPhoto '11 is working well.
    The reviews usually only show the comments of people who do not like the changed features.
    To get an idea what to expect, when you upgrade, look at the iPhoto '11 support sites.

  • My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incredible 2 cell phone and I can not transfer my photos from my cell phoen to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can no longer do so. i havenot upgraded to any new software.

    My MacBook Pro does not recognize my Android Incrdible 2 cell phone and therefore I can not transfer any photos from my cell phone to my Mac. I was able to do this in the past, but can not do so now. I have not upgraded to any new software. My USB cable is plugged in properly and I just get an error message -- "No Android Device Found". What could be the problem?

    I had the same issue with the Galaxy S4 trying to see what the hype was about and was my first and last android phone. With that being said unfortunately it is a hit or miss with the Mac recognizing an android device or not.  It worked perfectly fine the first time around and then it stopped working for no apparent reason. Through trial and error nothing I did solved the issue.   I did however plug it in my Mac and left it connected for about 30-40 min to charge for a bit and all of the sudden it recognizes the phone. So I just launched Android File Transfer and everything else became fluid after that.    I have no explanation as to why it happened that way, but what I gathered from this is maybe you just have to let it sit for a minute while plugged in before the Mac recognizes it, after all they are opposing software.  On a side note this is why I will always be an apple user, Iphones and the like never have this problem

  • Since loading the new version of Firefox it will not open. When I try to download Firefox 4 or older versions I get a messase that says I must close Firefox first. Everything else is closed!

    A new version of Firefox downlaoded the other day and now Firefox will not open at all. I tried to redownload version 4 and an earlier version (3.6) but I get a message that says that "Firefox must be close first in order to continue". There was no other box open at that time. What can I do to get Firefox to work?

    Hey, thanks for the info. Upon further reading into the help section, I realized that I had to uncheck spybot tea timer to get the downloads to save & open. Wish I had read that a couple of months back... Works fine now anywho, thank you for your response.
    Have a good one!

  • Why is Pages 5.2 telling me it can't save my document until problem is resolved -- how do I find out what the problem is and how do I resolve it?

    I'm working on an iMac OS 10.9.3. I downloaded Pages 5.2 and am using it to edit a long document with multiple images. Formatting disappears (style headings, for example), then when I try to move an image, the program tells me it can't autosave until problem is resolved. I don't know what the problem is or have any inking of how to resolve it. I can't move the document to another destination, or duplicate it. I've had multiple program crashes and am not getting anywhere.  Sure could use some help in salvaging this important document.

    That is not the full message, and what does it say exactly?
    What exactly are you intending to do with this file?
    If you are going to take it to a commercial (digital or offset?) printer, how do you propose doing that? In what format? What output are you aiming at? Have you actually spoken to a printer about what you are putting together?
    If alarm bells are not ringing for you yet, I am not sure what it is going to take to alert you to the mine fields you have just entered.

  • Can't figure out what the problem is, please help!

    Hey, so I have a Mac Mini which I bought nearly 3 years ago. I've been running the latest system 10.6.6, when the issues started. Everything would just unexpectedly quit and occasionally, I'd get the "You need to re-start your computer..." grey screen, also the desktop would refresh itself and not open any folders or anything at all. Finder, Console, Dashboard Client, etc all quit,´and sometimes the nmblookup thing would pop up, but before I could click Allow or Deny, it'd dissappear again.
    I ran the Hardware Test, and four times out of seven it said "No Trouble Found" while three times out of seven it gave me an error code starting with 4MEM. The system profiler, meanwhile, told me that both RAM cards were OK. I did the Hard Drive verification through Utilities and it gave me some problem starting with "Key..." and said it could not be repaired.
    SO, I reformatted the HD as it suggested, deleting everything (I've got it backed up though). Then, I installed Snow Leopard again, and the issues were still present. It would Quit Unexpectedly freeze up, etc. So then I went and erased the hard-drive again, and a new partition was made automatically. After that, I tried installing the original software which came with the computer. Except that after Installation Disk 1 was finished, the computer restarted and then it was just a blue screen. Nothing. It didn't ask for the second disk or aything. I tried again, and in the middle of Disk 2 Installation the grey "You need to re-start..." screen came down. ***. Now, I can't seem to install ANY Mac OS X on my computer, not what it came with, not the Snow Leopard, nothing.
    Again, Hardware Tests tells me everything is ok, and the Hard Drive also says there's nothing to repair. Then what is this? I don't even know what it could be anymore! Please help if you have an idea of what this might be! Unfortunally, at the moment I have no money to send it to the repair so they'd check=/
    Thanks in advance, any help would be greatly apreciated!

    Oh ok, well that was what the test said prior to reformatting the hard drive. Now, it doesn't find any trouble no matter how many times I run it. That's what has me so confused, everything seems to check out and yet...I can't do anything, not even install the software!
