It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

    I am trying to sync my Ipad 2 to my Itunes account on my laptop.  It will only sync my purchased music.  All of my personal CD music that is on the account is grayed out with a red circle at the end.  Please help.

    Did you select all of the music to sync by clicking on the playlists or albums or whatever you use in iTunes - in order for them to sync? Or did you click on Entire Music Library if you want all of your music on the iPad?

  • When trying to download Firefox 3.6, just before finishing I get a message that says the file is corrupted and won't let me knownload

    I'm trying to download firefox 3.6 and get a message saying the file is corrupted, or doesn't have authentication. What's up?

    Hi,
    I think there are some internet problems. If you use a (wireless)-router, maybe a reset will work. You can reset the router by pressing a button on the router itself. Try again downloading firefox.
    If this doesn't work, download firefox from another computer and safe it on a USB flash drive.
    Kind regards,

  • Error: the cabinet file required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used.

    Hi, ive recently just built a brand new computer and purchased windows 7 64 bit. the system runs fine except for the fact that i cannot install any games (these include command and conquer 4, red alert 3 and sims 3. i go to install and partway through it stops with a message saying:
     "the cabinet file 'name.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. this could indicate a network error, an error reading from the CD ROM, or a problem with this package."
    At first i suspectd a faulty cd rom drive, but the same thing happend wen i tried it with another drive. i know the disks are fine because theyr new. iv searced online and tried things such as disabling the antivirus, going into command prompt and deleting the .....\SQMClient\DisabledSessions as administrator and anything else that was recommended, but it still cant seem to like cabinet files (btw when the installation stops it doesnt always stop on the same .cab as a previous attempt, sometimes it gets further through the installation than others). they install fine on other computes with windows 7 64bit.
    Any help is appreciated! Thanx

    Hi Dazattack, I suggest you check the following KB article first:
    Error message during Office 2000 or Office XP installation: "Error 1335 - Cannot Copy Cab File Office1.cab"
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314810
    Note: Though it's for Office, some steps in the article can still be used in such scenario.
    Meanwhile, can you install other applications that downloaded from the Internet ?

  • ERROR: The cabinet file 'Sql.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used

    As the title indicates, I'm having this error during installation. It occurs when I try to install
    the "Management Studio" part of the program. I've tried a bunch of things like
    copying to hard drive and installing, but to no avail. To isolate the problem, i've even tried removing Reporting services, since at the time of failure it seems to be trying to install/configure the Microsoft.Reporting Services dll.
    Additionally, I have SQL Express installed (installed it separately, not as part of the SQL 2005 DVD), VS 2005, .NET Framework 2.0, SQL Management Studio Express CTP. Could the Management Studio Express be causing a problem?
    Please note:
    Although the error is about missing / corrupt Sql.cab, I have searched the entire dvd for the said file, but there is no file called Sql.cab on the dvd. Am I missing something?
    Any solution would be greatly appreciated.
    TIA

    Reading though the many Google hits going way back AD-2000/AD-2006/AD-2011/AD-2014 for various installs including SQLserver_2008/2012 etc
    I noted that in the main there were x2 common themes.
    1. Problem with corruption the original download.
    --- Although I had not run the download checksum
    --- I had previously just installed SQLServer2014_Developer successfully, so at the minute, I was confident downloads were ok.
    --- Many hits mentioned this 'Sql.cab' file and 90% of the install had been successfull -
    --- I figured the chances of us all having corruption of this one files were agaianst the odds and
    ---   probably re-downloading it would not fix this - but I kicked a re-download off anyhow .
    While it was running ...
    2. Network issue when installing - some of the hits asked if could be related to Virtual drives.
    --- This struck a chord
    --- I had downloaded the SQLServer2014 .iso to my host PC and then copied it onto one OneDrive so I could access it within the VirtualBox_Windows_10.
    --- From within the VirtualBox_Windows_10 I had then used SetupVirtualCloneDrive5450.exe to mount the OneDrive SQLServer2014 .iso and then autorun the install.
    What worked for me ...
    --- I decided to
    --- 1. Copy the same SQLServer2014 .iso that had failed to install x2 from OneDrive to the c:\ root of the VirtualBox_Windows_10.
    --- 2. Remount the same SQLServer2014 .iso from c:\ again using SetupVirtualCloneDrive5450.exe.
    --- 3. Re-run the SQLServer2014 install using the repair mode.
    This time the [Maintenance] [Repair] install completed with all elements showing installed successfully.
    Hope this helps

    HI,
    If your old version of iTunes is still working - then I sugest you stick with that.
    iTunes 11 is a lousy update - It will not retain your playlists, you can't find and delete duplicates... and a whole arry of oyher issues. (have a look around this forum to see how many issues IT11 gives people)
    Just a friendly advise and warning :-)

  • I'm trying to download Mozilla Firefox, but everytime I try, the download is interrupted by a prompt stating the file is corrupted and it stops the download. Help!

    I'm currently using Internet Explorer and it is SO slow. I went to this site and tried to download Mozilla Firefox. It begins to download and then is interrupted by a window that pops up and says the file is corrupted and it shuts down the entire download. This has happened about five times. Please help!

    The Mozilla site. It's the correct site, I'm sure of it. I'm becoming EXTREMELY irritated with Internet Explorer and haven't even been able to really use the internet on my own laptop because of how many problems I have with IE. I've tried NUMEROUS times a day to download Mozilla Firefox and the SAME thing keeps happening. It'll get to about 3% loaded and say it's an Unknown Publisher and I tell it to run anyway and then immediately after that, it says "Extraction Failed: File Corrupt" and the download stops. PLEASE HELP. PLEASE.

  • "This ipod cannot be updated. The files are corrupted and unreadable"

    This message now appears when I connect my ipod to itunes....
    "This ipod cannot be updated. The files are corrupted and unreadable"
    The ipod still works and charges, but it will no longer let me add new files to it. The contents of my ipod are still displayed as usual on itunes, so it obviously is reading it to some degree. It advises me to run a chkdsk utility, but I have no idea how to do this.
    Has anyone encountered a similar problem? Does anyone know how I can fix this problem?
    Many thanks

    If your iPod is corrupt then you have no choice but to restore it.
    Before you do that, you may have some success getting the music off it and onto your hard drive again.

  • Hi,am not able to open PDF Files in Mozilla Firefox without using plugins...I need Solution

    Hi,am not able to open PDF Files in Mozilla Firefox without using plugins...I need Solution

    Hello,
    Please see the support article below for full information on viewing PDF in Firefox:
    [[View PDF files in Firefox without downloading them]]
    If you want to use Firefox's built in PDF viewer (i.e. not a plugin) then you will need to ensure that any PDF plugins are uninstalled from Firefox and that 'Preview in Firefox' is selected as the Action for PDF files (see screenshot below).
    I hope that helps. Let me know if not.

  • I downloaded 4.0 when prompted, but it did not open upon completion and now shortcut does not work and cannot find file to run 4.0 in the firefox folder. Tried restarts and reinstalling 3.6 which now also won't work for me. Ideas?

    I downloaded 4.0 when prompted yesterday. Seemed to download normally but did not automatically start following download even though that option was checked. The shortcut now is broken and efforts to fix it fail because the file cannot be found. Checked the firefox folder and do not see a file to run firefox. Tried restarting twice with no luck. Then tried multiple times to reinstall 4.0 with no success. Then tried uninstalling and reinstalling 3.6 with same result.

    OK. Got it figured out. Disabled my virus scanning software and the download worked perfectly. Should have thought of that before now.
