I have just downloaded firefox onto my laptop but it wont open. I keep getting a message that says: 'The connection has timed out' Can you help

This is the message i get after a few seconds of trying to connect:
The connection has timed out.
The server at search.bearshare.com is taking too long to respond.
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.

Is this when you install the EXE, or when you are running Firefox, or some other time?

Disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall during the download and update usually resolves the timeout error.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You should only get that message when you are trying to create a new account.
Unfortunately once all the 3 iCloud accounts have been created on your mobile device, you cannot create any more regardless of what you do. You will need to re-use one of the accounts that you have already created or create your new account on another device or computer.

I cannot open websites that I normally open everyday. I have Firefox 5.0 When I try to open something, it says The connection has timed out

Can someone please help? It was working fine. Now I can open some things, but not my regular sites that I have on my desktop. It just tries to connect, then says, The connection has timed out

I have windows 7 home

i tunes wont download itouch restoring sotware it gets finished and gives me an error message saying the network conection timed out but its working fine what do i do?

I have this same problem, i though it was my internet (super slow) it would take 3 HOURS!! to download the update and then after all the waiting, it would say "network connection timed out" Ive restarted it and checked my settings over and over but it still says "timed out" wat should I do?!?

I am unable to download the programs onto my laptop. I keep getting a message that says the operating system no longer supports the programs.

I need help, i am not sure what operating system needs to be installed. I have a mac and the operating system is up to date.

Creative Cloud programs are not spec'd to work with Mac OS X 10.6.8. You would have to upgrade to at least version 10.7. You should check the system requirements for all of the programs you wish to install to see what the minimum is that would cover all of them. Just Google "InDesign system requirements" to find them for InDesign, and repeat for the other programs using their names instead of InDesign.

Whenever i try to go to the iTunes store it says the connections has timed out and will not let me proceed and i have try almost all the help in the support guides... any help?

I didn't know this is where you put the problem but the question is the title

Have you tried to run firefox '''as an administrator''' ?

I can not download the new version of Firefox. I keep getting a message that says "Firefox 5.0.1dmg could not be opened, because an unknown error occurred" HOW do I fix this?

Every time I try to download the new version it just says I can not download the new version of Firefox. I keep getting a message that says "Firefox 5.0.1dmg could not be opened, because an unknown error occurred - Try saving to disk first and then opening the file"

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

I have not been able to download previous purchases since the new update. I keep getting a message that says this computer is associated with an APPLEID and that I can download previous purchases again in 82 days with a different ID?? I only have ONE ID

I keep getting a message that says my computer is associated with an APPLE ID?? That I can download previous purchases again in 82 days with a different ID? I don't understand why it wont allow me to download previous purchases?? I never had this problem before the 10.5 update. I have emailed their help panel numerious times and they never do anything that remedies the problem?? I only have one computer and one ID I just dont understand what the problem is. I use a 3G connection to download music and sometimes the songs are not completely downloaded too and when I cant redownload them its like a waste of money.. I am so discouraged!!! Has any of you had this problem or know what I can do to fix this problem?? Thanks!!!

Hi Bander Bunny!
I have a couple of articles that should be able to help you troubleshoot this issue a little further. You may want to try uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes first. This has to be done in a specific manner, and this article can help you do that:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

Another option is that you may want to try syncing your iPod nano manually. Here's is an article that pertains to manually managing the content of your iPod nano:
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1535
It's also possible that this issue resides with your iPod nano. Here is a website that will help you troubleshoot the iPod nano:

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

Hi There,
It seems that you have only downloaded .exe file. You need to download two file .exe and .7z and put it in a same folder and then try to run .exe
