Internet Explorer is GONE

Hello,
I don't know how I managed to do it but I uninstalled Internet Explorer from my SBS 2011 Standard. This is a problem because now I don't have Internet Settings or anything related to Internet Explorer including some programs that run with it. Trying any
of the Internet Explorer installs will always fail without any specific error. Add Features in Programs and Features doesn't have Internet Explorer as a Feature. How do I fix this?

You can't uninstall IE. You can remove the icon but not the program

Did you use group policy to block it?
Given that I'm not sure what you did, I'm not sure what to tell you to do, other than to ask what exact errors do you see in the event viewer when you attempt to launch IE using the file exe directly?

> Do you know how I can get IE to open the create version of ADOBE?
De-install Adobe Reader 8 and re-install Adobe Acrobat 5.

Since upgrading to Firefox 5, I can no longer browse for attachments in AOL Webmail, and every time I open Firefox, it asks me if Mozilla can make changes to my hard drive. I've gone back to Internet Explorer.

I upgraded to the latest version of Mozilla Firefox and ever since then, every time I open Firefox it asks me if I want to allow Mozilla to make changes to my hard drive. I have to answer "Yes" or else it won't open Firefox. Then when I open my AOL Webmail and try to browse for an attachment, it freezes up the browser window and I have to open the Task Manager to close Firefox. I have now gone back to Internet Explorer which does not have either one of these problems.

Maybe just corrupted Disk Utility preferences ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.DiskUtility.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.DiskUtility.plist file to the Trash.
Restart your Mac then try creating a .dmg file.

Firefox has suddenly gone wrong. I was successfully running both Firefox and Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7. My laptop is new and has plenty of RAM and HDD. I auto-accept upgrades including the most recent Firefox upgrade and the suggested upgrade to Adobe Flash 10.1. But after this, Firefox stopped working and does not work when I re-load Firefox 3.6. Also IE8 now works very slowly and does not locate major websites like Microsoft without a 'can't find the website message' and having to pressing Return a second time. When I do get to the Mozilla website and click on the button to try to download Firefox 3.6.6, I get this message "Oops! Internet Explorer could not find mozilla3.snt.utwente.nl". Can you help with what has gone wrong? As it stands, I can't use Firefox at all. Note: because Firefox did not work after the upgrade, I've downloaded the IE8 version of the Adobe Flash 10.1. What I really want is to be able to use both Firefox and IE8. But is this possible if they use different versions of Adobe Flash?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== About 2-3 days ago ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0; GTB6.5; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; Tablet PC 2.0; .NET4.0C)

I have been having the same problem as the original poster. After upgrading to Ffx 3.6.6, the program asks you to upgrade to Flash Player Plugin 10.1. I download and installed 10.1 only to find videos weren't loading.
In my case, the problem is the previous installation of Flash Player (9.0.47) was somehow messing things up. To fix this, because I already had Flash plugin 10.1 installed I had to uninstall 10.1 using the uninstaller from adobe and then manually remove any files related the old flash player plugin 9.0.47
Here is a run-down of my process:
0. To check if you have a previous installation of the Flash Plugin lurking around, in Firefox go to Tools -> Add-ons -> Plugins (tab). At this point you may seen both Flash plugins.
1. Proceed to uninstall Flash Plugin 10.1. Adobe provides an uninstaller here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
( you have to make sure you have nothing running when you execute the installer).
2. On my Mac (sorry I don't know what it is in Windows) I searched the hard drive for any files/folders with "Shockwave". I found a folder called "Shockwave 10". It wasn't removed by Adobe's uninstaller. For safety I deleted it and then emptied the trash.
3. I then went to My HD -> Library -> Internet Plugins.
Remove the file and folder named "Flash player.old"
4. Restarted; ran the Adobe Flash Player 10.1 installer. Restarted again.
5. Opened up ffx and double checked the plugins list (see step 1). Version 10.1 is installed and available. Went to problem sites to test it out and Success!
Hope this helps.

I have updated my website. The updated version doesn't appear in Firefox Yahoo searches, but does when I use Internet Explorer. Shouldn't it update immediately? This problem has gone on for over 24 hours!

Using Firefox, I updated my website yesterday. When viewed using Yahoo in Firefox, the older, previous version of my website was displayed.
It is now over 24 hours since my update, but Yahoo in Firefox still displays the out of date website.
This does not happen when the website is viewed using Internet Explorer - Internet Explorer started to show the updated version immediately... Why hasn't Firefox?

All styling gone in Internet Explorer AND Safari

Hi everyone .. well I have had my fair share of internet explorer hell but this one is really weird. When I view site http://kimberleywebdesign.com.au/Links.html in firefox .. the site looks how its supposed to look but when I view it in Internet Explorer or Safari, it looks like its lost its style sheet.
If anyone has had this problem and more importantly knows how to fix it, HELP!!

The answer is here -

          <script type="text/javascript">
<!--               swfobject.registerObject("slideshow", "9.0.0", "expressInstall.swf");
          </script>
First, all of your HTML comments are improperly formed - there needs to be a space between the last dash of <!-- and the next character, e.g.,
<!-- <script
Next, you have a spurious opening comment tag without a closing one. IE thinks that the rest of the head content is a comment, hence the loss of CSS. Remove that opening comment group and you'll be fine. Mostly....

Adobe Flash Player does not work in Internet Explorer 10 on Microsoft Windows 8

I understand that Google Chrome and IE10 have their own automatic update system, however, any site requiring me to use adobe flash player to view videos does not work no matter what I try. I have:
Used the desktop version of IE versus that Start version and both provide me with the same message.
Tried uninstalling and then reinstalling but I receive an error message stating that Flash player is already installed and I know that it is not because I have unistalled it. I received this message: Installer encountered an error: 0x80248000
I even used Ccleaner to hopefully remove any files that were left behind.
I have gone to Tools, then compatibility settings, unchecked automatic update list from Microsoft. there are no websites on that list t remove.
I have double-checked that the flash player add-on is enabled.
I have also checked security settings and enabled Scripting for Java
I have also made sure that I disabled ActiveXFiltering.
Basically, I have tried to use Adobe's websites to figure out the issue at the following link: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-issues-windows-8.html#main-pars_header _1
None of the tips fixed my issue.
I have Windows 8, recently upgraded from Windows 7. I have a 64-bit machine, when I tried, just in case I was wrong, to install 32-bit, I receive an error. I would greatly appreciate any help anyone may provide. Is there a customer service number by any chance for software we have not paid for but instead it comes with our computers? I really need to be able to use discussions and watch Teachertube, youtube, and other videos to complete grad schools assignments.
Please help me!

It sounds like you might have additional software on your system that is interfering with Flash Player. You mentioned that this is happening for both Chrome and Internet Explorer, correct? I've got a similar system (Win 8 upgraded from 7, 64bit) and I've never had any problems.
I'd recommend trying to temporarily disable any security, antivirus, firewall software that you have running. You might also want to try starting in Safe Mode with Networking enabled (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode) to see if Flash works once all utilities and services have been disabled.
Finally, do either of these links play video back?

Internet Explorer always wanting to re-download ta...

If I switch from one tab to another in Internet Explorer on my Lumia 635, it will *always* attempt to re-download the tab that I am switching to, even if I was only away from it for a moment. This is a big problem when I try to e.g. brows the internet on a train, where I often lose service in tunnels. I will open a tab, read it for a while, follow a link in a new tab, and then switch back to the original tab...only to find that the data from the original tab is gone, and now the phone can't re-download it because I'm in a tunnel with no service. It's also problematic when I'm looking at tabs with large websites in places with poor reception, because it can take forever for the page to download. Annoyingly, it always forgets where I was in a page, so if I'm part of the way through a long page that I switch away from for a moment, it will jump me back to the top of the page when I return to the tab. And of course, it's needlessly running through my data allotment downloading the same things over and over again.
This happens even when there are no other apps active and the phone has plenty of free memory, so if it's a memory manager issue, the manager is obviously being *way* too aggressive.
Is there a way to make my phone actually remember the data in each tab, so that I don't have to re-download a tab every time I switch back to it?

Hi, dangersquid. Welcome to Microsoft Mobile Community! This link will give you information about Internet Explorer usage: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/how-to/wp8/apps/use-internet-explorer. Hope this helps.

Win 7 Pro updates to Internet Explorer 11 every web page has blank frames and radio buttons. Updates show only IE11.

This entry frame on your page has radio buttons, giving me some editing functions - Bold, Italic, Underline, Insert unordered List, Insert Ordered List, Insert Hyperlink, Remove Hyperlink, Insert HTML, etc... but
I cannot see them. Ever since updating Internet Explorer to ver 11, there is no going back to IE8. Your Tech forum monitors keep rehashing the same links that do not answer this snafu. Your Monitors suggest that the web sites are not running
because they are not compatible with the newer versions of Internet Explorer - well, even Microsoft's websites? When you create a new web interface, why would your coding team make it incompatible with your own company's sites?
The Monitors suggest our cards can't handle GPU and we should turn to software rendering. My card is a GeForce GTX 50 TI and has, according to the manufacturer web site: "Microsoft® DirectX® 11 Support
DirectX 11 GPU with Shader Model 5.0 support designed for ultra high performance in the new API’s key graphics feature, GPU-accelerated tessellation."
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling IE and Microsoft must realize no customer wants to have the technical side string them along with pointless and futile misdirection to a garble of automatic chat responses that offer incomplete and unrelated fixes
and then expect to gain points in the voting buttons that "this fixed my problem".
Microsoft: you are ignoring compatibility problems with your coding and pretending it is arises from hardware incompatibility or user stupidity. Your code should be running seamlessly, should accommodate existing technologies, and be flexible enough
to accept limitations of older hardware, older websites, and your monitors should march into Microsoft's development offices and demand answers ---- and fixes. Has Microsoft gone into hiding when the latest technology show-piece isn't working for the
rest of the world? We do not exist in a research bubble. We are here in the real world, with aging equipment and tight budgets, and we expect better from Microsoft.

Hi ohernova,
Sorry for the annoying issue you encountered and our develop team are trying our best to improve the performance of MS products, As I know, IE 11 was published after many technical tests, thus I suspect that it might be an individual case. I used to run
IE 11 in my win7, and it works perfectly,
Here’re some test you may take into consideration:
Make sure that you’ve installed all latest updates.
Since your Monitors keeps suggesting that the web sites are not running because it’s a compatibility issue, I suggest you add one site to the compatibility view list for a test, (if you can find the settings in Tools>Compatibility view settings)
Or click Win+F12, launch the F12 developer tool, click the last option, change the user agent string and document string to “10”, check whether the page can revert to normal.

Need urgent help on file download servlet problem in Internet Explore

I have trouble to make my download servlet work in Internet Explore. I have gone through all the previous postings and done some research on the internet, but still can't figure out the solution. <br>
I have a jsp page called "download.jsp" which contains a URL to download a file from the server, and I wrote a servlet (called DownloadServlet) to look up the corresponding file from the database based on the URL and write the file to the HTTP output to send it back to the browser. <br>
the URL in download.jsp is coded like <a href="/download/<%= currentDoc.doc_id %>/<%= currentDoc.name %>">on the browser, it will be sth like , the number 87 is my internal unique number for a file, and "myfile.doc" is the real document name. <br>
in my web.xml, "/download/" is mapped to DownloadServlet <br>
the downloadServlet.java looks like
tem_name = ... //read DB for file name
// set content type
if ( tmp_name.endsWith(".doc")) {
response.setContentType("application/msword");
else if ( tmp_name.endsWith(".pdf")){
response.setContentType("application/pdf");
else if ( tmp_name.endsWith(".ppt")){
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-powerpoint");
else if ( tmp_name.endsWith(".xls")){
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
else {
response.setContentType("application/download");
// set HTTP header
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition",
"attachment; filename=\""+tmp_name+"\"");
OutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
//read local file and write back to browser
int i;
while ((i = is.read()) != -1) {
os.write (i);
os.flush();
Everything works fine in Netscape 7.0, when I click on the link, Netscape prompts me to choose "open using Word" or "save this file to disk". That's exactly the behavior I want. <br>
However in IE 5.50, the behavior is VERY STRANGE.
First, when I click on the URL, the popup window asks me to "open the file from its current location" or "save the file to disk". It also says "You have chosen to download a file from this location, ...(some url).. from localhost"
(1) If I choose "save the file to disk", it will save the rendered "download.jsp" (ie, the currect page with URL I just clicked, which isn't what I want).
(2)But if I choose "open the file from its current location", the 2nd popup window replaces the 1st, which also has the "Open ..." and "Save.." options, but it says "You have chosen to download a file from this location, MYFILE.doc from localhost". (notice it shows the correct file name now)
(3) If I choose "Save..." on the 2nd window, IE will save the correct file which is "myfile.doc"; if I choose "Open ...", a 3rd replaces the 2nd window, and they look the same, and when I choose "Open..." on the 3rd window, IE will use Word to open it.
any ideas?
</a>

Did you find a solution to this problem? I've been wrestling with the same issues for the past six months. Nothing I try seems to work. I've tried setting the contentLength(), inline vs. attachments, different write algorythms, etc. I don't get the suggestion to rename the servlet to a pdf file.

"Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro requires Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater"

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro requires Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater is the error that jumps up when I try installing it. Currently this system is running Internet Explorer 7 which is installed at it's default location. Any clues what can have gone wrong?
Version 7.0.5730.13
Build 75730
Program path C:\Program\Internet Explorer (Swedish computer)
Language Engelska (USA)

I came upon this post after receiving this error message when trying to install Acrobat 9. In my case, we deploy Acrobat from an Administrative Installation Point (AIP) using Group Policy. I believe the user at this computer pulled the plug while the group policy deployment was taking place. I got the error when trying to install the program manually afterwards.
I was able to rectify the issue by running msiexec.exe against the MSI in the AIP with the /x switch, performing an uninstall:
msiexec /x \\server\deploy\AcrobatStandard9\acrostan.msi
(The program was not showing up in Add/Remove programs, otherwise I would have tried uninstalling from there.) After that, the install proceeded successfully.
Hope this helps someone.

I cannot open my Hotmail emails from Firefox. I have been on the hotmail Help Forum and they suggest to use Internet Explorer. Does Forefox not support Hotmail now?

Hi,
I can log into hotmail but cannot open my emails or go to Sent items or anything. I have gone on the Hotmail Help Forum and MANY people are having the same problem. Hotmail say we should use Internet explorer and they do not really answer about using Firefox.
People using Firefox 3 and 4 are having problems.
Also, i downloaded Forefox 4.0.1 and it was not fully compatible with Kaspersky - has this problem also now been resolved?
In summary - is Forfox 4.0.1 NOT comaptible with Hotmail and Kaspersky?

Sorry, I can't help with Hotmail, beyond clearing the cache - I haven't used it for 11 or 12 years now. Surprising that a Firefox 3.6 version would have trouble there, as 3.6 has been around for well over a year and Hotmail problems are usually with a recent release of Firefox.
IMO, if Hotmail support can't help you with Firefox issues on their website and can only recommend using IE, maybe it's time to change web mail service providers. My advice is to signup with a different web mail service, one that takes Firefox seriously. Then set up forwarding in your Hotmail account to have all your Hotmail emails forwarded to that new account. Then slowly transition your email contacts over to the new email address over time. As long as you log in to Hotmail every month or two, your account there should stay active and emails sent there should get forwarded to the new email account. I have done that three times in the last decade, and the first one I transitioned from was still forwarding email thru the two intermediary accounts to my current account until last summer when that service finally changed owners and they wanted all new accounts set up or transitioned to their new software - which I didn't do - and I hadn't even signed into my account there in over 4 years and "forwarding" was still working.

What happened to PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer?

(Think I may have posted in the wrong forum -- Acrobat.com -- so I'm reposting here)
I recently installed the beta of Internet Explorer 9 on my Windows 7 system. I liked it well enough, but the install caused my Acrobat 9 Professional toolbar to disappear. The only PDF item under "Manage Add-ons" is Adobe PDF Link Helper, which doesn't seem to do anything. I ran "Repair" several times from Acrobat to no effect. I then uninstalled the beta IE9 and restored IE8, then ran Repair again. No joy. The two icons in the toolbar (convert and convert rectangular region) are long gone. However my Office 2007 applications all have their Acrobat items present and they all work.
I understand that the PDF toolbar has some problems with the 64-bit version of IE8, so I've tried using the 32-bit version, again to no effect.
I can print to the PDF print driver, but that's a bit of a blunt tool and rather inconvenient. I just want to get the toolbar back. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Keep in mind that IE9 is still in Beta. They may have support for it once the full version is released. I
have IE9 Beta installed on my Win7 notebook and I will take a look to see if I see any options for the toolbar.
I know that with IE9 they were trying to eliminate a lot of the "chrome" of the browser to streamline it like Google's browser.
Firefox 4 Beta has done something similar to maximize website real estate.

Internet Explorer is GONE
