Internet Explorer 11 & Windows 8.1 x64 strange behaviour

Hi all
I work in IT Department in an organization, we were running Windows XP and recently upgraded to Windows 8.1 x64
Some of our users randomly face an issue with IE11.
Whilst using IE11 the tabs would suddenly start flashing, out of place and ie becomes unresponsive (screenshots below). This issue occurs to different users, completely random. We suspected add-ons, graphics drivers and protected mode...nothing seems to
be stopping the issue. The only way to end IE is through task bar, end task.
any suggestions?

Hi,
Besides that, please also try to reset your Internet Explorer to check if it helps:
1.Close all Internet Explorer windows that are currently open.
2.Open the desktop, and then tap or click the Internet Explorer icon on the taskbar. Changing your settings will affect both Internet Explorer and Internet Explorer for the desktop.
3.Tap or click the Tools button, and then tap or click Internet options.
4.Tap or Click the Advanced tab, and then tap or click Reset.
5.In the Reset Internet Explorer Settings dialog box, tap or click Reset.
6.When Internet Explorer finishes applying default settings, tap or click Close, and then tap or click OK. You'll need to restart your PC for these changes to take effect.

Can't share internet explorer window in lync 2013 client

Hi,
I'm facing a strange issue, i can't share (present program) an internet explorer window. The program is launched on my desktop but it doesn't appear when i try to share it. I use Lync 2013 client on Windows 7, same problem on Windows 8. I think it's linked
to our domain desktops, because i don't have the issue when i try on a workgroup desktop.
Someone has an idea ?
Thanks & Regards

What is the version of your Lync 2013 client?
I don’t have this problem running Lync 2013 15.0.4535.1507 version on Windows 8.
Please check the other Lync users have the same problem.
Try to close your another browser, then test again.

Export to Excel button only launches in Internet Explorer window

Hi Experts - A subset users that are experiencing issues with the option to Export to Excel via Web Analyzer on 7.0. For others, including myself it works just fine.
When they click the Export to Excel option after running a query, it only opens in an Internet Explorer window (no Excel options to manipulate data) and does not give them the typical MS Excel pop-up window (like I get) to OPEN or SAVE in Excel format.
Thinking this would be an MS Excel or Internet Explorer setting somewhere, but don't know where to find it....
Any help is appreciated!

Hello,
I think that you're right, the problem doesn't seem to come from anything in SAP servers (otherwise no user would be able to make it work right).
If I understand well, you want to open an Excel window when selecting "export to Excel" option, not having the table opened in IE with an Excel tab. Am I right ?
If it's the case, I think that this should work :
In windows explorer, open tools -> folder options
Tab "file type"
find xls extension, and click "advanced" button
uncheck "browse in the same window" button
I'm using windows XP, therefore I can't guarantee that you'll find the same menus with another OS. Furthermore, I'm using a french OS, so my translations might differ slightly from what you'll actually have on screen. The result is reflected in the following registry key : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Excel.Sheet.8
(this could be a different key, depending on the MS Office version installed on your computer)
You should now have a DWORD value BrowserFlags = 8
If you have a helpdesk department in your company, that handles software installations, I guess that they should handle this problem (by broadcasting the change in registry ?). But if you're a small company, where everyone has the rights to change such settings, this method will be OK.

Adobe & Internet Explorer crashing when opening pdf within an Internet Explorer window

Hello,
Can anyone help me with this issue or maybe point me in the right direction? Thank you!
Working with in a ASP that uses reader to display forms. The form opens as an embedded adobe form in a new Internet Explorer window. Once the form opens it pulls data from the ASP. At times when the form opens in the new window both the Internet Explorer windows close. Other times a "user request stop" error appears and once OK is pressed both windows close. The ASP does not know what causes this & can not seem to replicate the problem. ASP is on the other side of the country.
Would the acrotray.exe be causing this?

Flash download/close Internet Explorer Windows

Can't download Flash. Error message indicates to close all Internet Explorer windows and I have. Any suggestions?

Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking the following link and selecting "Save target as".
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Save the file to your downloads folder - DO NOT run anything yet.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE opening anything else, run the installer from your downloads folder.

As many HTTP sessions as Internet Explorer windows ?

Hi,
          My web-application is using HttpSession to identify users (with this well known getSession() applied to HttpServletRequest).
          I have noticed that if I open two (or more) Internet Explorer windows and I connect to my web-application, all of them share the same HTTP session.
          That is annoying because some parameters stored in the session are different between the windows.
          When I'm using IE in one window and Firefox in another, there are two separate sessions.
          How can I do to have as many different HTTP sessions as IE Windows ?
          Is it a WLS parameter ?
          I'm using WLS 9.1.
          Thanks a lot.

This is not WLS issue. This is caused by the fact that different browser instances share a same cookie.

ITunes disrupting Internet Explorer, Windows Live Messenger

Hi
I recently downloadeded iTunes 7.4.2.4. Now when I have Internet Explorer open at the same time as iTunes, iTunes will constantly switch to itself, or in any other program will sit on the taskbar flashing orange, without me doing anything. It also refuses to show what I am listening to on Windows Live Messenger. Any help?

Okay... I've solved my issue using a work-around. the iTunes code for broadcasting these things definintely needs to be looked into. Its pretty trivial that syncing an iPod that doesn't have the "manual ejection" option ticked could cause a detrimental issue such as this.
As Hinted, to fix the issue. Make sure the iPod is set to be 'manually ejected' once its finished syncing. This means you will effectively have to eject it yourself using iTunes once you've synced it.
The steps I did was...
*1. Set iPod to be 'manually ejected' once synced and hit apply.*
*2. Sync iPod... again, for good measure.*
*3. Restart the computer.*
*4. Start iTunes with the iPod still connected, Sync it again.*
*5. Open Windows Live Messenger and make sure 'show what im listening to' is ticked.*
*6. Play a song in iTunes and see if it worked.*
*Please post if this helped you.* Im sure a few of those steps like re-syncing aren't neccesary, then again it's "Apple" iTunes so it's best to be safe then sorry.
Currently, the wonderful world of iTunes (7.7) is saying I don't have permission to set it as my default audio player, and im the friggin Admin...
*Bravo! Apple Team, Bravo!*

Image video verte saccadée avec internet explorer windows 8.1

Bonjour,
Ma question est résumée sous objet ci-haut. Certaines vidéos, surtout des chaines de TV ont une image verte et saccadée avec Internet Explorer. J'ai le même problème avec Mozilla Firefox. Avec Google Chrome ça marche.
Les mises à jour W8.1 sont faites. Comme Flash Player est intégré dans Internet Explorer, il doit-être à jour. L'option activer/désactiver l'accélération matérielle n'existe pas pour Flash Player.
Avez-vous une solution pour ce problème?
Merci d'avance pour votre aide.

Hello,
Are you writing an app using the WebView or just creating a web page to be displayed in IE on the phone?
The WebView hosts IE so this answer should work for you either way but... The WebView supports the HTML 5 "video" tag. The platform supports a limited number of streaming formats natively including Microsoft's propriety implementation of RTSP and
RTSP over HTTP. If the video source is being streamed in either of these formats you can simply point the "video" tag at the server and you should be good to go.
If you want to support a different streaming protocol such as HLS or DASH you will need to create or find a 3rd party
Media Source Extensions plug in for the "video" tag that supports the protocol that you are using on the server. If you are severing Microsoft's Smooth Streaming content you may be able to use the
Smooth Streaming Client SDK for Windows Phone 8.1 although I'm not sure if the HTML5 support is available outside of a native HTML5 app.
I hope this helps,

NTLM problem with Internet explorer/windows

Hello,
I am sorry if this post is not in the correct forum but i really don't know where to put it.
I need some help with this issue from my work as I am out of ideas and I don¹t find any similar issues on your lists/emails/faqs.
I am using a server with CentOS6 and Squid 3.1.10 as a proxy. One of my teams needs to access to ISS 7 trough Squid for test and development purposes using only NTLM (required only NTLM). Squid server is accessing the AD and credentials are working. All
tests performed with Wbinfo are successful. The access to the IIS ntlm site is successful from Firefox and Safari (not windows OS), all returning the message ³you are authenticated using NTLM². I try to perform the same test on several machines with Windows
7 and Internet Explorer, most of them 11, and always get the message “Proxy isn’t responding”. GPO was altered on the windows for NTLM, ISS site is requesting NTLM with extended protection and kernel=mode authentication off. All suggestions from Microsoft
were followed regarding NTLM configurations.
Somebody as any ideas please??
Thank you

Hi,
By default, if a client try connecting to a server supporting LM and NTLM, it'll adopt LM Authentication. So, please check in registry if LM and NTLM v2 are disabled.
Open registry
Locate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa.
Add a new DWORD value named LMCompatibilityLevel
Set its vaule to 2. For more details, please click
here
Close registry
Reboot your system.

Cannot acees HTTPS sites in Internet Explorer - Windows 10

In Build 9860 : We cannot access HTTPS sites in Internet Explorer ; unless we put it as a TRUSTED SITE.
A similar issue has existed in Windows 8 and a patch was issued.
I think the same issue has now come back in Windows 10.
Please fix this. Thank you.

Well, please try this link in your internet explorer of Windows 10.
https://itldrive.infosys.com/infosys/webview/xythoslogin.action
It doesn't open unless you put it as a trusted site.
However, in Firefox (or IE in Windows 8 or 7) it may open without any issue.

Internet Explorer window really small

Hi
I have a Windows 8 laptop and all of a sudden Internet Explorer has started opening the window really tiny. Not aware of any changes I've made and all other applications are fine. This is very annoying. Wish I'd stayed with Windows 7.
