Internet Explorer Question

Last week while I was away my son did something on my I Mac that generated another Explorer Icon. This one on the right side of the screen, not on the menu bar/dock at the bottom of the screen. He dumped the explorer icon in the trash and emptied it thinking it was a duplicate program. Now there is a question mark on the dock bar and the Explorer program seems to be missing, wont open. Is there a way to re install this software without doing a complete software install and erasing all the data on my hard drive? We have a ton of music in I tunes for the I-pods and a ton of pictures I'd hate to have to re-load.
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thanks - Pat

It sounds like what may have happened is that the explorer application was removed from the applications folder and placed on teh desktop. Then, thinking it was a a duplicate, trashed it. However, application icons in the dock are not actually the applications themselves but are links to applications on your computer... in the applications folder. So when the dock icon shows a ? it is because it can't find the application.
In your case, your son trashed the app as well as moved it but there is no need to re-install everything, just the appliation that was removed. So, as the previous post suggests, go to the MS website, download it and re-install it.

Safari vs Internet explorer question

We recently got a new system at work that allows us to access our scheduling information over the internet. We use to use citrix to connect to the server to retrieve the info but now we can get it via the internet. My question is, in order to get the scheduloe window to display you must use I.E. 6.0. I have tried Safari, Firefox, Netscape and others but they always get a message that says browser not supported. What could possibly be the difference or reason that one browser would work and all these others cannot display the iformation. The system that we have is made by SABRE. Any help or ideas are appreciated. Our help desk at work are a bunch of idiots.

It's also entirely possible that the people who built the web application did not want to bother testing the entire thing in other web browsers, without any technical reason to do so. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Mozilla, etc. might do slightly different things for any given web page, and having worked as a developer for 5+ years in companies that build web-based applications, I can tell you with absolute certainty that "the easy way out" is to just say "this thing only works in Internet Explorer, period" and add a check that kicks out any web browser that isn't running Internet Explorer. Follow the instructions in one of the other posts to tell Safari how masquerade as Internet Explorer. I think it's possible to make a similar change to Firefox. Either one, you'll be able to trick the web server into thinking you're running IE and you'll quickly discover if the webapp actually works or not for non-IE browsers.

Windows Internet Explorer 9/10 question on Win7 system

Hello everyone,
Hi this is my first post here even though I have been a member for some time. I would like to thank everyone for all the helpful information, as it has helped me greatly.
First off I am a IT computer engineer for a major hospital I do the programming, setup, deployment and maintenance of our hospital computer systems as well as Bio-Med. So you guys and gals can speak the lingo.
Now to my question. I will explain in detail.
We have computers that are know as generic and have generic logins in certain departments, (where anyone from the department can go to the computer and then use it for research on the internet). Well we seam to be running in to a problem with the night staff
where they surf the net for pleasure/playtime and these computers then get infected with virus, malware...etc. No one knows who it is and everyone is pointing fingers.
Is there anyway to have Internet Explorer 9/10 on Win7 have a login, so that a user tries to launch Internet Explorer but Internet Explorer will not launch unless the "user" has a login for the application and that application only. Thus giving
us a log of What time Internet Explorer was used and by what user and this is what they did/or went.
Example...
Generic account (ph12345) is open to everyone in the department, all they have to do is hit enter and they are on the desktop
BUT
User (DC12345) login to Internet Explorer @ 1:35am
AND
did this...
Now these computers have to stay generic accounts for the staff. I am asking is it possible to have just the application "Internet Explorer" have a login to launch the app???.they user will click on the application "Internet Explorer"
a popup window or a login screen comes up asking for login information. Then if the user has rights to Internet Explorer it would launch and they then can do what they need to do. But at the same time create a log of the launching and what was / where they
went.
Thank you for your time and "Have a great holiday season everyone"

Hi,
I understand what's your requirements, but based on my plenty of test, I doubt there is no way to restrict IE start.
In Windows 7, Compatibility of IE properties, it shows greyed out and couldn't be check run as administrator. That's to say, we couldn't restrict a standard user use IE.
Thanks for your understanding.

When I go online to my bank my statments are unable to read as they get overlapped by the questions on the right, If I log in from Internet explorer the full page is shown, This is the same for the Daily Mail Rewards club.

I use Windows XP professional, When I use Firefox to go to my Barclay bank statements, they are unreadable as the page with the amounts on is partly covered by the Questions on the right of the page, I also have this problem with the Daily Mail rewards club, If I login to my account from Internet Explorer it works fine for both, this is without making any changes to my setup.

What you are experiencing is 100% related to Malware.
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

On the page where you enter username and password after entering and pressing "Log in" the page just stays in place. If you look at the error log you see

Firefox will not open, it ask if I want to send a crash report. All the questions I have read on this matter have not worked. I can open your website through internet explorer. What can I do?

When I try to open Firefox from my desktop it will not even open to the internet, it does pop up a box that says "do you want to report this crash" I have sent the report and still can not have any luck fixing this problem. I can go to the internet if I open internet explorer and then go on your web site but it will not allow me to down load Firefox. What can I do to fix this?

Internet Explorer / GP Central Store Question

I plan on administering Internet Explorer 11 from a domain controller that has Internet Explorer 8. I don't want to upgrade IE 8 on this machine but I do want to update the central store with the latest inetres.admx. From what I gather in
this post it sounds like the new admx file needs to use the newer dll's included with IE 11 to work correctly. Can one simply copy over the new file without upgrading Internet Explorer and expect it to work ?

Hi,
IE8 does not have Automatic updates. It sounds like you are using a server version of windows as your desktop (which you did not mention)....

Problem with Youtube on Windows 8.1 enterprise / Internet Explorer 11

When the youtube videos finishes, the account logs off.
I've tested on other video hostings, there is not any problem (vimeo.com, rutube.ru etc.)
The problem seemson both, internet explorer desktop and app versions.
Hardware: HP Laptop 2510p
Software: Windows 8.1 Enterprise Clean Install.(The VGA driver is installed automatically by Windows.)
Have anyone the same problem? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
It's not a bug, the cause of this issue is that your current video card or video driver does not support GPU hardware acceleration well, and you may have to install the latest video driver supporting hardware acceleration.

Windows 7 Pro SP1 x64 wont install Internet Explorer 10

Hey all,
Having an issue on my clients machine and I have yet to figure it out. The machine is a Dell Latitude E6330 running a 64-bit Windows 7 Professional SP1 install. Currently the machine has Internet Explorer 9 on it which is unacceptable due to compatibility
with a client website he uses.
Every single time Windows Updates are ran everything will update and install correctly except for
KB2830477 and Internet Explorer 10 giving me Error Codes
800736B3 and 9C59.
I have attempted installing these two updates manually by downloading them from Microsoft website and installing them in different orders. KB2830477 says that it's not compatible with my system and IE 10 simply fails to install.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, I've hit a wall here.

Method 1:The System File Checker tool
To determine whether the issue that you are experiencing is caused by one or more system files that are used by Windows Vista, run the System File Checker tool. The System File Checker tool scans system files and replaces incorrect versions of the
system files by using the correct versions.
To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
1.    Click
Start, and then type cmd in the Start Search box.
2.    Right-click
cmd in the Programs list, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type your password or click
Continue
3.    At the command prompt, the following line, and then press ENTER:
sfc /scannow
For more information visit the following link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936212
Now you can try to perform the Windows update and check if the issue persists.
Method 2:
System resources, such as file data, registry data, and even in-memory data, can develop inconsistencies during the lifetime of the operating system. These inconsistencies might be caused by various hardware failures or might be caused by software
issues. In some cases, these inconsistencies can affect the Windows servicing store, and they can cause software updates not to work. The System Update Readiness Tool tries to resolve these inconsistencies.
After you download the System Update Readiness Tool, it runs a onetime scan for inconsistencies that might prevent future servicing operations. This scan typically takes less than 15 minutes to run. However, the tool might take significantly longer
on some computers. The Windows Update progress bar is not updated during the scan, and progress seems to stop at 60% complete for some time. This behavior is expected. The scan is still running and you should not cancel the update.
For more information and to download the “System update readiness tool” visit the following link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821
Method 3: You may also try to perform a “Clean boot” and check if the issue persists.
NOTE: THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE DISCLAIMER
Using Third Party Software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of Third Party Software can be solved. Using
Third Party Software is at your own risk.
Clean boot:
Note If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We strongly recommend that you do not use the System Configuration utility to modify the advanced boot
options on the computer unless a Microsoft support engineer directs you to do this. Doing this may make the computer unusable.
a.
Log on to the computer by using an account that has administrator rights.
b.    Click Start, type
msconfig.exe in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER to start the System Configuration Utility.If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click
Continue.
c.     On the General tab, click
Selective Startup, and then click to clear the Load startup items check box. (The
Use Original Boot.ini check box is unavailable.)
d.    On the Services
tab, click to select the Hide all Microsoft services check box, and then click
Disable all.
Note Following this step lets Microsoft services continue to run. These services include Networking, Plug and Play, Event Logging, Error Reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you may permanently delete all restore points.
Do not do this if you want to use the System Restore utility together with existing restore points.
e.    Click OK, and then click
Restart.
Note: Reset the computer to start as usual
After you have finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:
a.     Click Start, type
msconfig.exe in theStart Search box, and then press ENTER. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click
Continue.
b.
On the General tab, click the
Normal Startup option, and then click OK.
c.     When you are prompted to restart the computer, click
Restart.

Internet Explorer 11 and Flash on Windows Server 2012 R2

I used Windows Server 2012 R2 which has built within it Internet Explorer version 11. When loading a web site which has Flash content it prompts me to install Flash, but when I navigate to the Flash download site it says I must enable it because it is already installed.
After reviewing the directions for How to Enable Flash, the directions become worthless because they don't match the screen that I see.
QUESTIONS:
Does IE Version 11 have Flash built in or not?
If if does, how do I enable Flash?
If it doesn't, how do I install Flash?
Please don't tell me to load a media-rich web site, and go to "Manage Add-Ons" and enable Flash because the enable Flash command doesn't show up.

Repair IE? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378
The thing is... Adobe collaborates with MS on the updates for IE10 &11 in Win8 &8.1 (server 2012 also AFAIK) and then hands the code off to them. It's "Redmond's baby" after that. There's a KB in Windows updates (KB2898108) that prevents downloading the ActiveX plugin throug Adobe updater from here. Even if you manually download it, it'll prevent you from installing it. I have a Win 8 and Win 8.1 test machine set up and I've tried to uninstall the KB with no success.
Unfortunately I don't have a Server 2012 machine so it limits my troubleshooting. Chris Campbell has more insight into the ins and outs of Server 2012. Hopefully he'll add to this thread.

Itunes won't open and neither will microsoft internet explorer :I

Hi
My Itunes hasn't been able to open for months, the first time it happened was about the time my Internet explorer stopped working for no reason and my msn messenger won't connect either. Could these be linked I have a had a few I.T. keen people look at it with no solution... I have tried removing and reinstalling Itunes and msn Messenger but nothing has worked. When I click on it, it just won't open... any ideas?

okay.
some preliminary questions aimed at narrowing in on
possible culprits.
(1) do you have Norton Internet Security 2005
installed on the PC?
(2) try launching your QuickTime. does it:
(a) launch perfectly fine?
(b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so,
what does it say?)
(c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could
you describe it for us?)
(3) reboot the PC. bring up your Task Manager, and
click on the "Processes" tab. now try to launch
itunes again.
does an "itunes.exe" process appear in the Processes
tab? if so, does it persist in there or does it
disappear after a few seconds?
hey, i recently been having troubles with opening iTunes
i thought you could help because you suggested something that is causing me trouble (number 1: Norton 2005)
i click to open iTunes.exe but nothing happens. the process appears in the Task manager, but i cannot terminate it. And upon opening, my Norton session manager ends with an error
can you help me?

Amimation doesn't play in Internet Explorer

The Flash files do open up in FireFox from either a PC or Mac computer. Is there something within the code that I can take out by chance? I'm using an apple computer.
I get this message when I open up a flash file on my computer, but I do not get it when I open the webpage and click on one of the animated Flash video files.
"This page contains some SWF objects that may not work properly in the most recent version of Internet Explorer. Dreamweaver cannot convert them to the new SWF markups. Please delete each of them and insert again."
This is the code I'm using:

Hi,
Some questions for you--
1) Just want to clarify, the SWF is produced using Captivate, right ?
2) What is the content of the WF, in case it contains Widgets try to generate one without these and verify the result.
3) What is the version of IE that you have been using?
Can you checked your Flash Player version and share that as well.
Thanks,
Anjaneai

SSRS Report Data Caching Problem in Internet Explorer

HI All,
We have setup reporting server in native mode and have deployed SSRS reports on reporting server and mapped it to sharepoint page with report viewer web part.
The changes on the data is not getting reflected on the report unless I close the browser completely and reopen the URL but at the same time for other rdl reportr, data is getting changed on same brower. so it doesn't seems to be the browser issue (not sure).
Also the both reports are almost same.
Any Idea Guys...whats happening with the report or how I can make it work to refresh data properly. I already have tried "Auto Refresh" option in rdl and it refreshes the browser but data doesn't gets refreshed. Also I had deleted cookies, clear the cache
but it also did not work for me.
Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Nipendra Garg

Hi Nipendra Garg,
This might be caused by the refresh behavior of Internet Explorer. When visit a webpage with the same URL, IE may use an old version of this page which stored in browsing history.
If you're calling the report from a URL, add &rs:ClearSession=True. This will cause the browser to refresh the report every time it's called.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,
Eileen
