My messages sometimes take a number of minutes to ...

Now before I say anything I want to clarify that prior to this I had not updated in over half a year. Infact I updated when I noticed the problem which fixed nothing. The group has six people in it including myself and for some reasojn sometimes when I try to send messages it can take minutes to send when othertimes it works instantly. It tends to mess up more with longer messages. I'm in another group which is pretty much identicle and I don't have this issue and I can talk to others fine when not in a group. I can't exactly make a new group either because it;s an old skype group so you have more contyrol over it (apparently).

Why did you give your granddaughter the password?

I can not get to iPhone screen, so no way to get to Settings. That is the problem. When I connect phone to iTunes I get screen asking to insert SIN card. On the phone I'm getting Cinfigure screen asking Launguage , Country or Region, Wi-Fi, ( I can connect to my home wi-fi), and last screen "Activating your iPhone". After two minutes of waiting IM getting message: Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server in temporary unavailable. try connecting to iTunes or try later or contat apple.com/support.
Like I mention, I went to Bell as well Rogers store and tried to insert active SIM card with no results.
Yes, my friend unlock the phone to use with Rogers but I don't know where

Every page I load takes more than a minute to load - clicking anywhere gives message that firefox is not responding. I don't like this version, it sucks - tabs are not defined well, can barely see them.

for instance, if I load www.msnbc.com it will take more than a minute to fully load in that if I click on a link or try to scroll, the entire browser locks up, if I try to scroll, or click on the page, I get the message that the program is not responding.

If you've updated from a version as ancient as 3.5.4, then you run the risk of encountering problems. You should start with a fresh profile to ensure old preferences, data files and changes made by extensions are not interfering.
First, create a backup copy of your profile folder, just to be safe.
* [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
Then use the Reset Firefox feature.
* [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]]
If the problem persists, see the following article.
* [[Firefox hangs or is not responding - How to fix]]
Do not reinstall old versions of Firefox. They contain security vulnerabilities and shouldn't be used. Very old versions might also be unable to handle data files in your profile folder in their new formats, which can lead to all sorts of problems. And lastly, many websites require a modern browser to work properly.

Firefox has become noticeably slower - particularly in closing - i haven't timed it but sometimes it seems to take at least a minute for it to finally close - any suggestions?

i also get a message sometimes that says something is going wrong with a script - i always choose to stop the script - i don't know if its related
the slow closing isn't an every time occurrence but happenes more than 50% of the time - it seems to get worse the longer Firefox has been open

My first reaction is it sounds like you're pocket dialing your passcode? In iOS 6, it used to be you could go Diagnostics & Usage Data under Settings and see if things were crashing on your phone due to bad memory, but don't know if that works in iOS 7.0.4 on the 4s, but that's the first thing I'd look for. (I think crash notifications return in iOS 7.1?)

When I connect to the hotel wireless, it takes 2 or 3 minutes to be redirected to the login page

Hi all,
I have a problem with my Firefox 4 beta: when I connect to the hotel wireless, and I start the browser, I should be automatically redirected to the hotel's main login page.
In FF4b I get 2 error messages (attached) and I am not redirected immediately... it takes 2 or 3 minutes to be redirected.
If I don't want to wait I have to start IE, make the login, and then get back to FF4b.
I believe this situation is connected with the "Test Pilot" and/or the "sync" function of FF...
Any ideas about what I should do? Any setting I should change?
Thanks,
Tozé

Help! When I try to reinstall CS6 Design and Web Prem i get message that my serial number is invalid

When I try to reinstall CS6 Design and Web Prem i get message that my serial number (Design and Web Prem <serial number removed>) is not valid? Why???? I have it installed now on just one computer only. It was installed also on a computer and a laptop. The laptop crashed and couldn't restart anymore. I had to through it away. After that I installed on another computer at a place where I work sometimes with photoshop. Then suddenly I got message at my computer home that the serialnumber is invalid. I installed for the time an try out version, and now I have deleted the version that I had on the computer but when i want to reinstall my legal bought version with the serial number that i mention there, I get again the message that my serial number is invalid. But now it is only installed on 1 other computer. If I check the sites, I have to contact Adobe but I don't know how. The link does not work and I cannot find any phonenumber.!!

If you had it on a laptop that crashed and you threw away, it is still considered as activated on that machine. YOu should contact Adobe by chat or by phone and have them deactivate for you.
Here is a link to a page with options to help make contact:
http://www.adobe.com/support/download-install/supportinfo/
If you are getting a message that indicates the serial number is not valid, you should look thru the following:
Error "The serial number is not valid for this product" | Creative Suite

FireFox keeps telling me that it can't find a server. It will sit there and think for sometimes as long as a minute when loading a page. Is this a router, modem, airport, hardware, or software problem?

Pages sometimes take as long as a minute to load. Other times they're just "there" like they should be.
I don't know what info would be helpful in figuring this out. It's not a certain website or time of day. I've got cable internet, a netgear router, and an arris modem. I'm running OS 10.5.8 and I believe I have all the current updates for the airport.

Are you talking about Locations? Not that, i meant the list on the left, use the - and + buttons at the bottom to delete/add connections ... deleting the old connection and creating a new one always works for me. Click the AirPort and click - then click + and add a new AirPort and configure it.

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine. This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine. This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message. In fact, in the same screen I can often open an email from the same sender with email intact. This is weird. Sometimes I close the page and open a new page. Sometimes that works and sometimes it does not. It is a very annoying thing.

Hi,
When you start Messages fro the first time you are asked for an Apple ID
When this is verified and entered it appears in Messages Menu > Preference > Accounts and is Enabled.
The App should have also picked on on those iChat Accounst you had before.
These should be Enabled if they were when you last used iChat.
Exactly which "Accounts" are logged in can be seen in Message Menu > Accounts and will include the iMessage "Account" and Bonjour.
In the Window menu you will see CMD +0 for the Messages window and CMD+1 for the "Buddies" window which is a combined list at this stage.
Go to the Preferences > General Section and Untick the "Collect all accounts into one list".
This will give you separate iChat type Buddy lists.
You can check if that account/Buddy list is set to Invisible or if in the Preferences > Accounts > Security you have settings that will block some people from seeing you as On line.
You are saying Buddies can see you as On Line which implies they are still sending to your AIM based Names (@Mac.com is a valid AIM Screen Name)
I am not sure from your post if you are trying to iMessage their email IDs thinking they are Apple IDs and that they are using Messages as well.
There is no Buddy list for iMessages side
No-one can tell you are "On Line" until they have your details in the "To" spot in Messages with the correct iMessaged contact info (iPhone Number or Apple ID)
Obviously an Apple ID can be an email or look like one.
In some cases they are also valid AIM Screen Names as well.
In the case or the @mac.com name you may have linked this Apple ID to iMessages as well.

Launch the Console utility and look for messages that might explain the problem. Look for messages with a significant time gap between them. If you see such a thing but don't know how to interpret it, post the messages here and someone may be able to explain them.

QUERY TAKES MORE THAN 30 MINUTES AND IT'S CANCELED

Hi
I have one workbook and sometimes it takes more than 30 minutes to be executed, but Discoverer cancels it, Does anybody know how to alter this? I mean if the query takes more than 30 minutes i need it to be finished.
Any help will be appreciated.
Best Regards
Yuri López

Hi
You need to alter the timeout settings and these are located in multiple places.
Discoverer Plus / Viewer using this workflow:
1. Edit the pref.txt file on the server located here: $ORACLE_HOME\discoverer\util
2. Locate the preference called Timeout and change it to your desired value in seconds. The default is 1800 which means 30 minutes
3. Save pref.txt
4. Execute applypreferences.bat if running on Windows or applypreferences.sh if running on Linux or Unix
5. Stop and restart the Discoverer server
Discoverer Administrator using this workflow:
1. Launch Discoverer Administrator
2. From the menu bar, select Tools | Privileges
3. Select the user
4. Open the Query Governor tab
5. If "Prevent queries from running longer than" is checked, increase the limit
6. Click OK
Note: if "Prevent queries from running longer than" is not checked then the Timout in the pref.txt controls how long before the queries stop. If it is checked and it is lower than Timeout you need to increase it.
Let me know if this helps
Best wishes

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
Try This - Renew IP Address:

After my macbook was serviced, when I tried to open CS6, it prompted me to key in the serial number. After keying in, I got error message saying the serial number is invalid. However I have checked that it is correct.

After my macbook was serviced, when I tried to open CS6, it prompted me to key in the serial number. After keying in, I got error message saying the serial number is invalid. However I have checked that it is correct.

First be sure login and password are OK. Sometimes the address starts wit "http://..." and sometime starts with "ftp://...". Try both normal FTP access and Scure FTP access (SFTP). At the end, contact the site's provider.

All of a sudden, for no apparent reason, it takes up to 5 minutes for the prompt for my password to come come on screen?

When I open Thunderbird it takes up to 5 minutes for the prompt to come up to enter my password. This has just started happening-for no apparent reason. I opened the program in 'safe mode' and it made no difference. Please advise.

Hello Matt,
I hope you had a nice holiday...
OK, so, opening in safe mode does not change behavior.
I'm on Mac (ver 10.9.5), Thunderbird 31.3.0 - up to date.
I'm using a POP server. If changing to IMAP will be beneficial please give instructions. I didn't find anything helpful on the Mozilla site for doing this.
recap:
It takes 2+ minutes for my password verification to come up.
It no longer automatically downloads new emails once I am able to enter password (I checked the account settings and it IS selected to do this).
It takes 1-2 minutes to send messages (no attachments).
I can't think of anything I may have done to cause this change in the way it works. Is there any other specific information you'd like?
Thanks,
Laura

Module ContrentSwitch 3 command takes more than a minute to respond

I have two CAT 6509 switches with a CSM module in slot 3 in SW1 and a CSM module in slot 8 in SW2.
From the router config when I type - module ContentSwitch 3 on MSFC in SW1 - it takes more than a minute to get the CSM config prompt.
Then every command I type - eg, vlan 46 client - takes about a minute to respond.
This happens only on CAT 6509 SW1. On the other CAT 6500 - SW2 - which has the CSM in slot 8 - when I say - at router config prompt - module ContentSwitch 8 - I get an immediate response with the csm config prompt and every command I type I get immediate response.
One CAT 6500 number Sw1, I did a reset 3 at the CatOS prompt and tried again. Same problem, Could it be a H/W problem on this CSM in this CAT6509. The CSM versions of the two CSMs in the two CAT6509 are 4.1(3) and the MSFCs in the two CAT6509 are 12.1(2)E.
It can't be version problem because the two CSMs and the two MSFCs in the two CAT 6509 have the same versions. Tomorrow I will replace the CSM in the problem CAT6509 and try again.
I have configured one CSM and I need to configure this other CSM whick takes more than a minute to respond to commands and so I gave up after I typed 3 or 4 commands.
Any suggestions please?

I meant to type 12.1(22)E2. Please see below for the version and it is the same on the MSFC of both CAt6509 switches.
