My system is incompatible with the plugIn-Container of the versions 3.6 to 4.0 only compatible with 3.5.19 and below

Hello,
I have a system AMD Athlon 64 2x 6000+ with windows XP Pro sp3 with 32 bit, dual core.
When I changed to Firefox 3.6.11 (I don't know what it was before) the Firefox crashes each time when I click on "tools/options", "File/open File" or if I try to download a file. The same happens with any version starting with 3.6.0
There is no message : the program is not responding, the sand clock is running and nothing happens. I reproduced this about twenty times. I have running the 4.0 beta version and the 3.5.16 version simultaneously.
The only answer I found in the internet is to change the name from firefox.exe to some other name (firefox1.exe). This doesn't work in my case. If there is any method to analyze exactly what happens I would like to try it. I only found out by looking in the administration tool of windows that the plugIn Container crashes all the time - with or without loading any plugIn. Starting in safe modus and several new clean installations didn't change anything.
I have firefox 3.6.13 running on another (Intel)system without problems but any version starting with 3.6 is not compatible on my AMD system.
I would like to upgrade my firefox one day - but if this is not solved I will never be able to.....
There are other people in the internet with the same problem - anyway to change the name from firefox to firefox1.exe is not a solution - in the best case a work-around.
Please help me...
Thommy

I think there is a bug in Plug-in check. It happened to me as well in the last few days. There's no newer version of Adobe Reader that I know of. Anyway, Adobe is going to release a patch next Tuesday, maybe that'll fix this bug.

  • How can I get TV shows viewed through Hulu Plus on the Apple TV 3 to show as widescreen with black bands above and below the screen shot instead of chopping off the sides on my non-widescreen TV?

    I just bought a new Apple TV 3 today so I can watch shows from Hulu Plus without having to physically plug in separate audio and video cables from my Macbook Air to the TV every time. I have a non-widescreen TV and when I normally watch Hulu Plus on the TV (though Safari on my plugged in Macbook Air as mentioned above), the entire wide screen shot is shown with black bands above and below the sceen shot since I am watching a widescreen program on a non-widescreen TV.
    However, I noticed that when I watch the same show through Hulu Plus on my new Apple TV 3, the left and right edges of the shot are chopped off to make the program fill my non-widescreen TV. This bothers me because I would like to see the full shot and not just the chopped off middle portion. This is a real bummber because watching Hulu Plus without having to plug in my laptop is the only reason I bought the Apple TV. Is there anything I can do about this?
    Thanks!
    (FYI: I have the very first Macbook Air that is not capable of mirroring)

    How are you actually connected to the TV?  Does it have HDMI?  Most non-widescreen TVs would not.
    I would suspect a converter is either not outputting properly, your TV not interpreting the signal properly or you have some form of Zoom setting enabled on the TV.
    How does your TV handle widescreen from say cable or terrestrial TV sources ?
    Unfortunately AppleTV is not designed to be used with non-widescreen TVs so there's no setting on AppleTV to tweak.

  • I had my iphone 4 locked to vodafone uk carrier. I connected the phone to itunes on my pc and tried to update the version to ios 6 through itunes. But it has been locked and asks for sim of previous carrier. how can i return to previous state?

    I had my iphone 4 locked to vodafone uk carrier. I connected the phone to itunes on my pc and tried to update the version to ios 6 through itunes. But it has been locked and asks for sim of previous carrier. how can i return to previous state?

    You cannot return to previous state. The update re-locked the iPhone
    to the original carrier. You must contact the original carrier to see if
    they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
    Be advised that if your iPhone had previously been hacked/modified/
    jailbroken to work with other than original carrier, it may be impossible
    for the original carrier to unlock it properly.

  • I recently installed the trial version of Adobe XI and the trial period ended, so I wanted to revert back to the version I already had. I did not see any uninstall feature and my old version was apparently replaced by the trial version. I cannot re-instal

    I recently installed the trial version of Adobe XI and the trial period ended, so I wanted to revert back to the version I already had. I did not see any uninstall feature and my old version was apparently replaced by the trial version. I cannot re-install a previous version b/c I need both a product Id (GOd only knows where that is now) and a way to uninstall the trial. Any ideas?

    When you installed the trial, there should have been an option to have ignored your current installation and leave it. Apparently you skipped that case. To uninstall the trial (in Windows) go to Control Panel>Programs & Features and select the Acrobat XI and choose uninstall. After the uninstall run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html to clean up your system. HOWEVER, if you see your old Acrobat in that window, do not run the cleaner, but do a repair on the old version.
    You did not mention the old version you had. You might try from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html. As for the S/N, you should have register and if so you can get it from Adobe. The instructions are at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html#adobeproductdownload.
    Be sure to backup any download of the old installer and the S/N to CD or backup HD for future use. They will not likely continue to be available.

    hi barbara
    thank you for your response, i appreciate it.  there's definitely nothing wrong with the mouse or trackpad, both work fine in every other application....i can also easily change size dimensions in other programs on my computer so it doesn't seem to be that either.  it seems like there is something weird going on in the way that pse and my mac are interacting with each other, just wish i knew what it was.    thank you again, wish me luck!

  • I created an iTunes account and finished by having a verification email sent out. I never got the email and when I get the note to resend it it won't let me tap on it and below it says, email address is already verified for another Apple ID

    I created an iTunes account and finished by having a verification email sent out. I never got the email and when I get the note to resend it it won't let me tap on it and below it says, email address is already verified for another Apple ID

    Apple requires each Apple ID be associated with a different email address. Perhaps that is why you haven't received the email. Or you received the email and it is in your Junk Mail folder.

  • ?? System Update Incompatible with Win 7 Service Pack 1 ??

    Hello everyone,
    I have two ThinkPads.One's a T61p and the other is a W500. Both have Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (beta) installed and both have ThinkVantage System Update 4 (v4.00.0024) installed.
    It seems the System Update is incompatible with Service Pack 1. When I try to run the System Update, it seems to start fine but when I try to get new updates, I receive the message, "An error occurred while gathering user information."
    Has anyone else had this error? Will a new (compatible) version of System Update be released?
    Thanks

  • I Need to build a database/booking and dispatch system that intergrates with iCal, Address Book and all Apple device's What would be the best Way.

    Hi
    Can anyone give me some useful information on the best ways to design and build a database/booking & dispatch system that can be intergrated through ical, address book and available on my macbook, ipad & iphone and all accessed through icloud.
    I started my own chauffuer Service a year ago as an independent. it's becoming a massive bore that most of my time is spent taking down information, checking if i am available for clients and with alot of diary checking and repeatative entries and email ping pong and invoicing, what i want to do is concerntrate on advertising and marketing and using my time off for R & R
    What i would like to do is access my information in an app and automate most of the processes like
    assigning the job to the client with intergration through iCal and Address Book
    be able to email confirmation through mail with an invoice produced through numbers or excel
    payment is already done through payleven mobile and must be done in person so i'd rather keep that seperate to all processes apart from a tick box to say it has been paid for.
    I have been looking at all options  FileMaker, Bento, Automator, Apple Script. to be frank im no expert and am a little confused as to what to do any advice would be greatly recieved.

    Hi,
    I would suggest that is going to be an involved and complex process.
    I would personally look into some of the invoicing and time scheduling software available and see if any fit your needs.
    Take a look here: http://www.tuaw.com/2008/07/30/app-roundup-timekeeping-and-billing/
    and here: http://www.tuaw.com/2008/07/31/app-roundup-timekeeping-and-billing-part-ii-the-q uickening/

  • When I click the View option to view a document on my insurance website, I only get a blank screen with words Mozilla Firefox, and below it, "Search Bookmarks and History" in the upper left corner of the screen.

    This also happened at a bookseller's website, when I clicked on the photo of a book to enlarge it. Instead of showing me an enlargement, it took me to the same blank screen with the title bar, "Mozilla Firefox", and below it another bar with the words "Search Bookmarks and History," both at the top left of the screen. This has happened repeatedly at the two websites I have mentioned. When I went to the same sites using Internet Explorer, the error didn't occur. I did a Microsoft system restore for a previous restore point, but it still did not eliminate this glitch.

    Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

  • I just upgraded to os 10.9.5. When I try to open iPhoto, I am told that the version I have(9.3), is not compatible with the os. But it came with it when I upgraded. What do I have to do to get an iPhoto that works with 10.9.5? TIA

    I just upgraded to os 10.9.5 on my 15 " macbook pro from os 10.7.5. When I try to open iPhoto, I get the message that it is not compatible with the os. How can that be??? It came with the upgrade. It says the version of iPhoto is 9.3. How do I get an iPhoto that works with os 10.9.5? TIA

    This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks.  It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgradeto iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
    Note 1:  every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
    Note 2:  If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1

    Try booting to the recovery partition and running Disk Utility.
    1, Boot while holding down the command and R keys (two keys).
    see this page: http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
    2. Run Disk Utility, select the hard drive in the left column, First Aid then click Repair Disk.
    3. Quit DU and restart.
    If that does not do it, you can reinstall the OS from the same screen as took you to DU.
    (My cat has never been able to do what yours did. I think he is just trying to email his friends.)
