My firefox keeps timing out when i am using it and my internet provider, Comcast , keeps dropping my connection. what is causing the problem, comcast or firefox taking to long to open?

when trying to run my firefox, the pages take too long to open, loading, and then my internet connection is lost. sometimes i can get on and for example, i was deleteing emails and after less than 10 mins my connection is lost. so i run comcast desk diagnosis and it refinds my connection but when i try to open any page with my firefox it takes too long and times out.

Insanity that it takes this kind of work to get a browser to function correctly. Is Mozzilla TRYING to ruin Firefox. Every update it's slower and more buggy. Since the last update, it freezes so much, it's basically a worthless browser.
Google the problem, people are jumping to chrome for the exact issue.

  • Why do I get "The update could not be installed. Please make sure there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer, and then restart Firefox to try again." when loading Firefox with no explanation as to what is causing the problem?

    When I load Firefox (since an upgrade to 3.6) I get error messages before it starts stating the quote above. The message does not specify which update and so when stability problems arose I stopped using Firefox in preference for another browser. I also get a message prompting me about Java which doesn't happen with any other browser. If I cannot get rid of these messages then I will continue to prefer other browsers.

    No, if I used the version of Firefox that I had then not only did I have the problem that I described but also it crashed regularly.
    As I said, the latest version does not appear to have these problems so with any luck I will be able to say that the upgrade has resolved the issues but it is too soon to be sure.

  • When I start using my yahoo mail account , I can't send / forward mail but with IE the problem just vanished

    I have been using Firefox since last couple of months and initially I was happy but recently with the issue I have highlighted , taken help of Yahoo but could not be resolved. When I have gone back to IE , the problem has been resolved .

    Sorry, I have no idea what you mean by '''"The Java plugin has created a time unfriendly issue with my e-mail account, I can not open or send any e-mail without using this plugin,"'''.
    If you think your problem is caused by the Java plugin, you should visit the Java support forum for assistance.
    http://forum.java.sun.com/index.jspa
    If you could explain what you mean by '''"time unfriendly''' issue with my e-mail account", maybe we'll be able to help you solve that issue.
    It might be helpful for us if we knew exactly which web-mail provider you are using. It seems strange to me that viewing or sending web-mail would actually "need" Java for operation, its more likely that some other item on the web page needs Java to run some advertising or other garbage that isn't a necessary part of the web-mail functionality you want to use.

  • Hello. When I connect my imac Start, as usual, comes the start signal and then the white screen with the load signal then nothing happens. What could be the problem?

    Hello. When I connect my imac Start, as usual, comes the start signal and then the white screen with the load signal then nothing happens. What could be the problem?

    Presuming you get the chime, most of your Mac hardware is working and has passed the first part of the power-on self-test.
    If the screen comes on, basic graphics is working.
    The dark gray Apple is not present inside the Mac -- it must be loaded from a boot device. If the dark gray Apple appears, at least one of your boot devices has some capabilities. The flower petal/gear moves while Darwin is initializing and loading. If it stops immediately, something is terribly wrong.
    When the screen turns blue, Mac OS X has loaded and your graphics card transitions to Interrupt-driven operation. LoginWindow task draws the login screen, and Mac OS X is ready for login.
    What could be the problem depends on where in the process it stops, and whether the power light is blinking.

  • HT4623 I am having trouble with my iPod 5th gen after iOS update. It's in recovery mode and iTunes keeps timing out when I try to restore it. What should I do???

    I am having trouble with my iPod 5th gen after iOS update. It's in recovery mode and iTunes keeps timing out when I try to restore it. What should I do??? If possible, I would also like to keep all of my data.

    Maybe this will help:
    Troubleshooting
    As with all clickwheel iPods, you can reset this iPod by first toggling the hold switch on and off and then simultaneously pressing the select (center) and menu buttons for approximately 5-10 seconds. This is a common fix should your iPod behave unexpectedly or lock up. Once reset, the iPod should display an Apple logo for a few seconds before showing the main menu. This procedure is similar to rebooting a computer and damages none of your music or data.

  • Tabular data model: Query keeps timing out when attempting to Edit Table Properties

    Tabular data model (SSDT)
    Problem: I have a table in tabular data model using a SQL Query for a data source. The query in question requires about 3 minutes to regenerate. When I open Edit Table Properties for this data source the query times out and I get an error (see below): "
    Failed to retrieve data from udvTrainJobReportsData. Reason: Query timeout expired"
    This seems to happen anytime I use a query that takes longer than a couple of minutes to regenerate. Anyone have an idea on how to get around this. Is there a timeout setting somewhere in tabular data model that can be increased?
    Thanks...

    Hi ManikantM,
    According to your description, you query keeps time out when edit table properties. Right?
    In this scenario, this error is thrown when connection or query execution exceeds the time out value. Please try to import this table and then increase the connection time out seconds.
    We can increase to ExternalCommandTimeout in Analysis Server Properties. Please refer to link below:

  • ITunes store keeps saying that my session has timed out when trying to buy a product from the store

    I Tunes is telling me that my session has timed out when trying to buy a gift voucher, which i have done many times before.
    The most recent change i'v made to my computer before this happened was to download an update (MacOSX updatecombo 10.7.3dmg)
    a couple of weeks ago. I'v turned off the firewall as suggested whilst trying to transact and turned it back on again, but don't know
    what else to try. The problem is three days old as i left and came back to it to see if there might be a glitch in the system.
    I'v been able to access the credit i have in the store, but not buy the itunes voucher to email to my own a/c. Please help someone if you can
    Sandystone.

    Thanks for your suggestion Ned01, I tried this as a last ditch attempt, unfortunatly it made no difference in my case, but i'm pleased it did for you. However, because you reminded me to have another go at this problem, i tried something else (which i'd unsucsessfuly tried before), that is, i deleted the 'CLICK & SAVE " a/c i'd set up recently,  and reverted to my previous payment me and would you know it , this time it worked !! I set up a trail purchase and it worked.
    It seems to me that other poeple with this problem have to solve it by trail and error, but thank you for your help.Sandystone..

  • How do I stop my itunes from saying my session has timed out when i'm trying to download a song

    How do I stop my itunes from saying my session has timed out when i'm trying to download a song

    What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Request timed out when purchasing music. Fresh install of Win7.

    For the past couple months I have have not been able to purchase music off iTunes without first going into Add/Remove programs and doing a "Repair" to iTunes. Windows Firewall wasn't blocking anything from Apple and even with the firewall totally disabled I would still get the "Request timed out" error. And at the same time I'm getting these errors, a Podcast can be in the background downloading or I can be previewing a song! I eventually gave up and just figured its some random windows bug that isn't very common or its just another example of iTunes sucking for Windows and Apple not caring. I just purchased most of my music off AmazonMP3 which I've been doing more and more of anyway.
    Yesterday I installed a new HDD and installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 Home Premium from my retail disc. I Installed all the updates then proceeded to install my software and put all my media back in-place. I'm a backup neat-freak so all this happen pretty easily and fast. I purchased a song off iTunes and was pleased to see it working again. Well here I am again suddenly having the issue with the connection timing out when purchasing a song. Firewall is configured fine and again I even disabled it. I know its not Windows now as there haven't been any new Drivers or Updates installed since I last purchased a song. I even tried different network adapters! What the heck is going on?

    This error is specific to RAS. The default CORBA request timeout is 10 minute = 600000 ms. When the RAS SDK does not get the reponse back from RAS server in 600000 ms it throws this message. Why it works in InfoView\CMC what I believe you refer to as "Front End' application is because InfoView\ CMC don't use RAS.
    1. First make sure that a smaller report wich runs pretty fast ( 1-2 min) works. This will confirm that there is no connectivitiy issues between RAS and RAS SDK.
    2. If you get the efrror for every single report, even the smaller ones, make sure the box running RAS and RAS SDK code( in case they are 2 different) can ping each other with IP, shortname and FQDN. If there is a firewall between them, the RAS port needs to be opened for bidirectional communication. By default RAS chooses a random port for communication with SDK but within CMC you can configure it to use a specific port and open it.
    3. If the issue is specific only to reports that are long running, typically more than 10 minutes, then you need to inclease the CORBA timeout to a value more than what the reports typically would take to process. This is done on client code side or IIS in this case.
    Here are the steps:
    Make the following changes on the application server/system.
    Open RegEdit by going to Start > Run and typing in regedit.exe. Then click Ok.
    Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Report Application Server\Client SDK\CorbaAdapter
    Change the value of SendRequestTimeout(ms) to 100000.
    Change the value of WaitReplyTimeout(ms) to 6,000,000 ms. The default value is 600,000 ms and may not be long enough.
    Restart IIS by going to Start > Run and typing in iisreset. Then click Ok.
    Retry the failing application.
    See note:  1296656
    This error should be easy to fix

  • Connection timed out when accessing BPEL middle tier

    I'm having fits over communicating with a Solaris middle tier PM from the PC JDev during construction, build, and deploy time and just can't make this out. I get a 'connect timed out' message immediately when a reference to the Solaris middle tier PM is made from JDev. Here are some particulars:
    1. Connection from JDev and Middle Tier PM test successfully.
    2. If I make no reference to the JDev middle tier process and I build and deploy a simple process successfully. It will also test okay.
    3. If I try to use the simple process deployed on the Middle Tier PM as a partner link, when I attempt to browse the process when adding the partner link I get the 'Connect timed out' message immediately.
    4. If I try to use a schema deployed to the xmllib I get the 'Connect Timed out' message when I attempt to build the process using the schema. (I can pull the same schema up in a browser on the Middle Tier PM).
    Why does JDev complain that the connection timed out?
    I am using 10.1.2 GA on both JDev and Middle Tier PM (deployed on top of Oracle AS).

    I discovered a pilot error. Nevermind. I transposed some IP characters in my jdev.conf file for the non-proxy hosts.
