I downloaded an update and now Firefox does not connect to the Internet. Having downloaded it again and again without avail, what do I do?

Firefox has gone haywire and won't connect to the Internet. I was prompted to install one of your updates and I did. Afterwards, it would no longer connect. I uninstalled and reinstalled it several times, but still I cannot connect to the Internet. My OS is Windows 7

After a Firefox upgrade/update, your firewall may not recognize that new version and will not allow access to the internet; that is your firewall doing its job. You may need to
#close Firefox (Firefox button > Exit or File > Exit)
#remove permissions for Firefox from your firewall's programs list
#restart Firefox
#allow your firewall to detect the new version and give the permissions needed by your firewall for Firefox to access the internet.

  • HT202157 I updated my apple tv and now it will not connect to the internet

    please HELP me make my appple tv work again. I have done the most recient update on it and now it will not connect to the internet :/

        1.    First you should try logging out of your iTunes Store account (settings > iTunes Store > accounts) and then back in again.
        2.    If that doesn't help, try resetting the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings).You should also try restarting your router.
        3.    If both of the above don't help, you should try a restore (Settings > General > Reset > Restore).

  • I loaded 4.0 and rebooted. Now Firefox wiill NOT connect to the internet how do I fix this?

    Email still works, crappy IE still works. I downloaded the new 4.0 ran the standard install, clicked finish, and Firefox has not connected to the internet since. I've rebooted a couple of times.

    Open System Preferences/Network
    Select the Location you use at home
    You may need to click the Padlock bottom left at this point if it's locked, enter the admin password to unlock
    In the left hand column drag the Ethernet connection to the top of the list and remove any you don't use
    Click the Advanced button bottom right
    Click the TCP/IP Tab
    Set Configure IPv4 to Using DHCP
    Click OK bottom right and you should see the Router IP number appear and a unique but similar one for your Mac
    Click Ok then click Apply and close the Panel

  • Firefox does not connect to the internet on this computer, though it does on another computer and though Internet Explorer also connects without any obvious problem.

    About 1 year ago I helped to set up Firefox on my mother's computer. It worked fine until a couple of days ago. Now it no longer connects to the internet. The system is Windows XP, service pack 3. Internet Exporer does connect to the Internet on this computer. Also, I have another computer with Firefox and it works with no problem wirelessly. We tried removing Firefox and then reloading it and that did not help. We get no error messages. The internet and Firefox simply don't seem to see each other.

    Sounds like a Firewall problem, seems to affect
    Firefox more than other browsers.

  • HT201210 I tried to update my iphone4, in the middle it gave an error and now when try to connect it the computer doesnt even detects it and neither does itunes

    I tried to update my iphone4, in the middle it gave an error and now when try to connect it the computer doesnt even detects it and neither does itunes

    Power the phone off completely. Plug the USB end of the cord into the computer, leaving the other end unplugged from the phone. While the phone is powered off, open up iTunes, hold down the home button on the phone, and plug in the USB cord to the phone, making sure you keep holding down the home button. In about 15 seconds you should get a pop-up in itunes saying that it's detected an iPhone in recovery mode. Click 'Ok' and 'Restore'.
    Your iOS update crashed and your phone is in recovery mode. The good news is that this will fix it, bad news is that unless you had everything backed up in either iTunes or iCloud, you've lost everything as your phone was wiped when the iOS update crashed.

  • After updating to Firefox 3.6.15, Firefox will not connect to the Internet, even after uninstalling and re-installing Firefox in my Windows XP environment.

    After downloading the Firefox 3.6.15 update, my problems began. Firefox would not connect to the Internet. When I rebooted my PC, Firefox said that it couldn't access any Web sites. I uninstalled Firefox, then downloaded and installed Firefox 3.6.15. I still have the same problem: Firefox will not connect to the Internet. I am running Windows XP, service pack 3. I never had problems with Firefox until I installed version 3.6.15.

    I have XP Pro. I tried installing 3.6.15 and could not open it. I did a system restore and 3.6.14 would no longer open. I tried again installing 3.6.15 and got a message that the previous version had not uninstalled properly. Tried uninstalling.
    As a precaution I used MozBackup to save my bookmarks etc. and also saved a system restore point.
    I then clicked Start, My Computer, drive C, Program Files and deleted the Firefox folder.
    I installed 3.6.15 and it is now working fine with all my bookmarks and addons loaded automatically.

  • HT201210 My partner updated iphone 5, and it now shows 'Connect to iTunes'. Then we get 'iTunes could not contact iPhone software update server because you are not connected to the internet'. Please help.

    iPhone 5 was updated (version unknown), and now screen shows 'Connect to iTunes.  When we try to do this, we get message 'iTunes could not contact the iPhone software update server because you are not connected to the internet'. 
    Please tell me how I fix this problem.
    Thanks

    Yes, the reason you are getting the error is the phone cannot provide internet for the laptop and then update itself. It would lose connection as you erase the firmware and try to update. You need to connect the computer to the Internet in some other fashion before you connect the phone to try and fix the update problem. As Ocean20 says, and I completely agree, how would you think you could use the Internet connection of a device that is not only going to turn off and on, but is going to get completely wiped of firmware and restored? It would completely remove the device from the equation here. Does that make sense to you?

    If you are the only user on your computer you probably don't have multiple user accounts set up and can disregard that.  If you are using iTunes 11 go to View>Show Sidebar.  Now see if your iPad appears under Devices on the left side when you connect it.  If it does, click on the name of your iPad on the left side and your iTunes sync settings options will appear in folders with tabbed headings to the right.
    If it doesn't appear on the left side, follow the troubleshooting steps shown in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538.

  • I put the BT WiFi app on my iPad Mini and now I can't connect to the internet.  Please help

    I put the Bt WiFi app on my iPad Mini  and now I can't connect to the internet.  Please Help

    Some things to try first:
    1. 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.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. 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
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    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

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
