I have windows 7 When I first start firefox works fine but after an hour or so it quits and won't load pages unless you go off line and start over. What can I do?

My question pretty much covers it. The program works fine usually about an hour and then when I go to load a page it comes up blank and you can see it is not searching. The only thing to do is go off internet and reconnect. Sometimes I have to shut the computer down.

The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
Try to decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 256 to 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

I'm using Firefox version 3.6 on my '02 Mac G4. When I installed it, it worked fine, But then all of a sudden the "save" and "save as" windows stopped coming up at all when I selected "save" anywhere in Firefox. What happened and how do I fix it?

I downloaded and installed Firefox on my '02 Mac G4. It worked great. Now I have version 3.6. But my weird problem is one day when I ran it, the "save" and "save as" windows stopped popping up at all. I'd left click a picture and select "save as" and nothing would happen. I'd go to the menu and select "save" and still no window would pop up. It would just act as if nothing had been clicked. No loading icon or anything and no "save as" window. I've never been able to get it to work. The volunteer in the live support chat typed "That IS weird.." I tried his suggestion but it did nothing. I may have deleted the plist preferences file in the preferences library folder to get it started again after a freeze up threw it out of whack but I've never had this happen before.And i've tried doing that again to see if that would restore it. But the plist always regenerates itself and the "save as " window still never appears when I run Firefox. The "save" window works just fine in every other program on my Mac, but not in Firefox. Weird..

We have 2 locations using formscentral one location is working fine but the other location is experiening slow response (up to two hours) or the form not displaying? What should be looked at?
Thanks
Carleen

Can you describe what you mean by "experiencing slow response"? Do you mean that you don't see the new responses as they come in? Does it takes up to two hours before they show up in the View Responses table when they show up immediately at your other location? And what do you mean but "the form not displaying"? Are you talking about the fillable form or the editable form in FormsCentral?
Can you please add me as co-author ([email protected]) of the form so that I can investigate on my side.

I use a two button mouse with my Mac Book Pro. It works fine, but after installing Lion, the mouse wheel goes in reverse of what it did (rolling the wheel towards your palm goes up not down the page). Anyone know how to fix this?

First sentence in OPs question:

I guess the track pad settings would look similar to my screen shot?

Cannot install my product using a long installation path with windows installer when a short installation path works fine

Hello,
I'm using Visual Studio 2010 to build a msi installer (windows installer 3.5). This msi will install all necessary files, dlls, documentation in order to have my application correctly installed and ready to run. One of my custom action allow to browse the
installation directory the default path is c:\program file\company name\product name). In that case the install works fine ie succesful installation.
However when entering a huge filename (>215 characters and less than 255 chars) such as: C:\Program Files\SITA\SITATEX v8\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789\0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789
I get a dialog box:
Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\SITA\SITATEX v8\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789\...\Single User Installation Quick Reference Guide.pdf. Verify that you have access
to that directory
"Try Again" "Cancel"
When I hit "Try again" button, I get another dialog box:
The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2350.
And the installation of my product fails.
I can create the huge path (>215 chars) manually with windows explorer without problem. I'm using the same account(Admin) when running the installer and when I create manually the path
Am I reaching the file path limit or? Any clue?
Thanks for help
Philippe

Hi
I have tried to install the product with the following path (198 chars): C:\Program Files\SITA\SITATEX v8\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789\0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQR the
installation did not succeed but this time no dialog box, no error was displayed. The installation just failed
I then tried with 180 chars: C:\Program Files\SITA\SITATEX v8\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789\0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
with same result. The installation did not succeed and no dialog box, no error was displayed.
I tried with 175chars
C:\Program Files\SITA\SITATEX v8\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789\abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789\0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstu
and this time the installation was successful.
I have captured the events with
processmonitor and I have uploaded 2 additional files (LogfilePath175charsSuccessfullInstall.zip and LogfilePath198charsInstallFailed.zip) to Windows Live SkyDrive (http://www.skydrive.live.com) at the same

Whenever i try to close a pages document the software crashes and I have to force quit and restart. what can i do?

Every time I close a document on Pages the software crashes and I have to force quit. Then I restart the program and all the docs that were up at the time of the crash reappear. I haven't lost any work yet but it's super annoying to have to restart everytime I try to close a doc. Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

Do you have Pages '09?
Have you tried that? If so what happens?

Firefox works fine until after lunch. Then it will not open, unless I reboot. Am at work, & I shouldnt have to do that, NEED a fix.

Everyday its the same thing. By midafternoon, Firefox will not open unless I reboot. I am at work, and have too many things open all day to stop and reboot for a browser, when I also have IE. I prefer Firefox, it is set as my default, and have many passwords saved there that are not saved in IE. Surely there is a fix for this? I have removed it, downloaded it again, followed other suggestions from your site, but still have the same problem. If I leave a window open all day long, it will still work for me, and thats what I try to do. However, invariably, there will come that accidental second that I hit the red X at the top and totally regret it! Please help!

I had tried this before, but went ahead and tried this again.
I clicked on "reset Firefox". Firefox closed, but did not come back up. When I tried to open it again, I did receive a message that said Firefox is running but is not responding, that I couldn't open another window without stopping the processes on the other page.
I never got a window that showed me the information that was imported, or a place to click finish.
Since I don't believe this completed, I don't believe my problem will be solved.

Firefox 4 initially worked fine, but after a back-up and restoration (now on a hybrid disk) it cannot find the bookmarks and crashes when I attempt to open the HTML file

I installed Firefox 4 on my 2010 13" MBP, standard configuration. It worked fine except that it didn't recognize any of the add-ons I was using and, to be frank, I don't like the interface as much as v.3. But ...
Then I backed up the entire HD, wiped the HD, removed it and replaced it with a Seagate hybrid HD. I then booted from the b/u and installed the entire HD contents on the new hybrid HD. Everything runs fine except for one thing -- Firefox 4 now will not recognize my bookmarks.
I tried reinstalling FF4 but this made no difference.
I did the b/u and restoration with Carbon Copy Cloner which I have used successfully for many b/u and restore operations on this and the white MB I previously owned.
Uh oh! I just tried to save a new bookmark (of this page) and it did not save -- or at least, it did not show in the "Show all Bookmarks" pane.
HOWEVER, when I start typing in a URL, it FF4 comes up with the completed URL in a flash. e.g. I typed "wiz" and FF4 showed me the completed URL (which should be in my Toolbar bookmarks and which I visit t least once daily).
Kind regards

Do a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 10.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data because all profile folders will be removed.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

Am using windows 7 and upon installing firefox 4 i installed speeddial extension and it was working fine but after 2 days speed dial no longer appears why is that?

upon downloading firefox I added speed dial . It was working fine for a couple of days but yesterday when I opened up firefox which I made as a default browser because of the speed dial it no longer appears even though it is still appearing as one of the extensions and is enabled

Hello Steve.
You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
If you detect a faulty add-on, you should contact its author for support. You can also search for alternatives. Site filters are relatively common in the add-ons gallery: [http://addons.mozilla.org addons.mozilla.org].

None of my iDevices can read my iTunes library after an hour of availibility. When I first start iTunes I can read the library, but after about 30 minutes my iPad's and iPhones can no longer access the library. I see it in the shared list, but no access.

None of my iDevices can read my iTunes library after about 30 minutes. My iDevices lose connection to my library and I have to do one of the three following things in iTunes to regain connectivity: 1. Restart iTunes 2: Stop / Start Home Services 3: Start playing a song.
I'ts as if iTunes goes into a background or sleep mode. During the loss of connectivity my iDevices show that there's a library shared, but I cannot connect to it.

Smae issue here, but I'm unable to get Home Sharing started again (after MAc and iOS restarts, Home Sharing on/off. etc.) This happend a few weeks ago and turngin Home Sharing Off/On fixed the connection issue b/w iPad2 5.1 and iTunes 10.6.1 running on a OSX10.6.8.
I updated to iOS 5.1.1 on iPad2 today, watched a movie and then about 20 minutes into a 2nd movie I lost connection (Sharing tab in Video app disappeared and has not come back.) The update seems like the culprit, but odd it worked for over 2 hours before stopping, odd I can't get Sharing to work anymore (iTunes see's my iOS devices b/c I can conenct to iTunes to enter my passcod efor connecting the Remote app.) Appears to be an issue with iTunes broadcasting Home Sharing, even thougt it says it is on.

I have windows 7 When I first start firefox works fine but after an hour or so it quits and won't load pages unless you go off line and start over. What can I do?
