Persistant problems with FF 27.0.1 on Windows 7/64

I seem to have a persistent problem with Firefox 27.0.1 and my MSN homepage. When I open FF, it takes me to both my Outlook Mail page and My MSN pages in two separate tabs. Outlook Mail had a problem taking my correct password, but that issue seems to have resolved itself (I did clear all cookies and caches related to the website). But My MSN is still giving me this message...
"The page you have requested cannot be found.
The web page you were attempting to view may not exist or may have moved — try checking the web address for typos."
I tried the same thing as I did with Outlook (deleted cookies and caches), but the problem persists. I disabled all plugins, and still no luck. The MSN Homepage comes up, and I'm shown as logged into My MSN, but when I click the My MSN link, I get the "The page you have requested..." message.
Another issue relating to both websites is password remembering. FF will NOT ask to remember the passwords for those sites. I have Remember Passwords box checked in Settings and it does for other sites, but not my Homepage(s). Clearing cookies/caches didn't help, and the password is not listed in the Remembered Passwords page of Settings.
Finally, Firefox on my home laptop (Windows 7/64 as well) freezes and crashes a lot, as well as displayes a warning there is something with Flash, which I have updated many times over.
I used to use Internet Explorer as a browser exclusively until I started having problems with certain websites not allowing me to log in. I realized it was not the website, but some incompatibility with IE. I started using Firefox, and fouind no problems, and heard it was more secure and easier to configure than Internet Explorer anyway. But since these problems started occurring (especially with NO way for me to log onto My MSN), I have to go back to using IE (except for select website logons), which is disappointing :-(.

About your home page; Manually set up Firefox with the window(s) and tab(s)
the way you want them to be. Then;
'''''Firefox Options > General > Homepage'''''.
Press the button labeled ''''Use Current'''.'
=====================================
Open a new window or tab. In the address bar, type '''''about:config'''''.
If a warning screen comes up, press the '''''Be Careful''''' button.
This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run.
At the top of the screen is a search bar. Enter '''''browser.newtab.url'''''
and press enter. '''''browser.newtab.url'''''
tells Firefox what to show when a new tab is opened.
If you want, right click and select '''''Modify'''''. You can change the
setting to;<BR><BR>about:home (Firefox default home page),<BR>
about:newtab (shows the sites most visited),<BR>
about:blank (a blank page),<BR>
or you can enter any web page you want.<BR><BR>
The same instructions are used for the new window setting, listed as
'''''browser.startup.homepage'''''.

  • Solution Center problem with HP Office Jet J4550 and windows 7 (64bit)

    Hello All,
    I have a problem. I have the Solution Center and a HP Office Jet J4550 and windows 7 (64bit). When ever I open the solution center, the solution center says " HP office jet J4550 series disconnected" When I open HP document manager, I can access the printer.  Additionally, when I run the HP Print Diagnostic Utility 4.0, it sees the printer, no issues. I can print test pages. No issues. I downloaded the latest driver from the HP site (OJJ4500_Full_13, 299,359KB) Your insight is appreciated.
    Thank you
    Roy B

    I have a similar problem with the J4580 and my new Windows 7 64-bit laptop.  HP Solution Center says that the printer is disconnected.  Furthermore, it can print some documents (short ones), but it was unable to print a 1-page 5MB pdf file.  The printer truncated the page after printing just the top 10%.   The printer is OK with my wife's Windows 7 32-bit laptop.
    I've seen many other people complain about similar problems in this and other forums.  Apparently the driver for J4500 printers is not compatible with Windows 7 64-bit.  Can HP please provide an updated driver or patch?

  • Problem with two monitors while using Photoshop, windows move from 2nd screen to 1st screen.

    Problem with two monitors while using Photoshop, windows move from 2nd screen to 1st screen.
    I saved a new workspace and it did not help.
    No problem before I went to Maverick.

    I found the fix, go to System Preferences and open Mission Control and uncheck the box to keep monitors as they were (When switching to an application...........)

  • Persistent problem with 6500 Classic

    Hello.
    First I want to apologize if this is the wrong place for my problem.
    I buyed my Nokia in the end of 2007. Since then I have problem with my earpiece and ringer. From time to time when listening music in the begining of the song the sound becomes really bad, nothing can be understand. To fix the problem you have to change the song or stop it and play it again. The same thing happens and when you talk with somebody. When I dial somebody sometimes the sound becomes really bad and I can't understand him and he also can't understand me. I have to dial him again. The same thing happens when somebody dial me, but again not always. The mentioned problems occur on about every 10th song and call, sometime in less time, sometime after couple of days, a week.
     The phone go in repair. First time from the magazine said to me that there wasn't such a problem. The second and the third time they said to me that the problem is solved and earpiece and ringer are changed, but the problem continues. I get my Nokia from repair today. The problem continues. I don't know what to do.
    Please can somebody help me.

    I think this is done intentionally in case you are using one of the application. You don't want it to lock while you are using something.
    There is a shortcut to the standby screen though. While you are in one of the applications, you can press the red End Call button to close everything down and return you to the standby screen.
    Hope this helps.

  • Persistent problems with Linksys WRT54GS Wireless Router

    I'm currently running Vista with a Linksys WRT54GS router. As earlier discussed in this forum I am still having intermittent problems with the ATV taking down my network. Anyone else experienced this and come up with a sure fire fix?
    When it's working I like the set up but I have to say, it is not nearly stable enough to be an everyday solution for getting my music and photos to my living room.
    Thanks.

    Hi, I am having the same problem -- my 2WIRE modem from AT&T recently blew up. So, I purchased the WRT54GS. As soon as I reconnected the AppleTV to the new router via a wireless connection, all of my machines (Mac and PC) lost their internet connections. I'm seriously considering going out and getting another 2WIRE.

  • Persistent problems with updating, uninstalling and the functioning of the setup discs.

    I am having problems with the Reader (9) and Acrobat Pro 9 aspects of my registered copy of CS4 Design Premium. When acting on the prompts from the updater, neither of these products will update, giving me a 1301? error (essentially telling me that i have modified the content of the folders?????) This is rubbish. I then decided to uninstall Acrobat 9 Pro and reinstall from the startup disc, well I was wrong, That refuses to work either, 1) The Acrobat uninstaller is stating that Acrobat is not the correct program for this uninstaller to uninstall, ??????? So I just deleted it and went to the startup disc. It gets to the 'preparing to install' stage and that is all, (waited for 3 hours for something to happen, I think that is quite enough).
    Please explain to me what is going on and more importantly get me my Acrobat Pro back so I can update it. NOT HAPPY.
    I have successfully downloaded and installed Reader X from the site, so we will see if that behaves itself when updating.

    Uninstall everything Adobe (yes, including CS4), run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, then reinstal lfrom scratch. Only run upates after both CS4 and Acrobat have been successfully reinstalled, then carefulyl re-apply all patches/ updates based on priority. Something busted/ locked your installer database which could include an update gone wrong. Can happen again, but updating from a fresh install is usualyl less prone to such issues and it might actualyl go through....

    If I start the same package in Windows 8.1, no problems occur. 
    Chrome is not the only package that I have problems with.
    I am still new in working with app-v.
    Has anyone experienced the same problem and found a solution for it?

    Hello,
    Since Windows 10 is in technical preview I would guess that this is not supported by anyone.

  • Problems with text using Photoshop CC on Windows 8.1

    I am using Photoshop CC on Windows 8.1.  I get  flickering on the screen as described by others.  My main problem, however,  is that when I try to use the text tool the layer goes completely black and I cannot see what I am typing or edit the text.  I have tried updating my video card driver and my monitor driver.  I have deleted the font cache file, I have tried using Photoshop without plug ins (I use Nic plug ins).  The only thing that has worked is resetting the preferences by holding down alt+control+shift keys when starting photoshop.  This allows me to enter text normally on one photograph and one only.  Once I have completed that first photograph and load another I get the black layer.  I desperately need help.  If this continues I will have to cancel my membership as I was much better off using my Photoshop Elements 11 disc.
    Any help will be very gratefully appreciated...............help seems to be very difficult to come by Adobe you make it very difficult for your customers!

    Ok,I can appreciate that I may not have given enough information.  You state that without proper system information nobody can help, but I need to know what information is needed.  You also state that I should simply turn off hardware acceleration in the perfs.  What does that mean?  How do I do that? I have tried changing the GPU Drawing Mode to basic and it didn't work.  Is this what you mean?  You may be assuming a level of knowledge I do not have. From research I have done this seems to be a problem with windows 8.1 that Adobe have been aware of for about a year.  I have followed all the online advice I have been able to find but nothing seems to be working.

  • Problem with sap script table in main window

    hi all,
    i have created a sap script  for which output is in 7 pages.
    except first page all the remaining pages are giving the correct output.
    the problem with the first page is iam not not getting vertical lines in the table which is in the main window of page 1.
    iam getting the vertical lines correctly in the mainwindow table of all the remaining pages.

    Hi,
    It's simple,
    Pre- U should had declared a second page for the same window with header, main & footer.
    now
    First when u r looping the internal table provide no of rows eg Row 1 TO 10. in the Loop ( Data Tab)
    or
    when defing TEXT Go to PC Editor and mention all the fields Under  PROTECT -  ENDPROTECT.
    This would solve the issue.
    Thanks

  • Compatibility problem with USMT 6.3.9600 and Windows Vista

  • Petition: problems with characters in mail sent to Windows computers

    Sign this petition by replying to this thread if you have problems with garbled characters when sending e-mails to Windows computers. Let Apple know It's a huge problem for non-English e-mailing customers and there is no way to definitively fix it.
    I'll start it off:
    Christoffer Du Rietz
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   17" last generation G4

    I'm not interested in knowing the gory technical
    details, I want Apple to fix the problem. The problem
    have existed for years. Non-english speaking Mac
    users run a high risk of sending e-mails that look
    like pure garbage on computers that use Windows. This
    does not help when trying to convince people that
    Macs are superior.
    I want Apple to fix Mail. Because it is
    2006!
    Your views are reasonable, but you need to send them to Apple, not just to the other users trying to provide help with problems in these forums. The channel for this is
    http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/
    You could also consider providing some feedback to MS. The longstanding bugs in Outlook that cause these problems represent really second-rate programming (even if it makes sense for Apple to somehow cater to them in Mail's behavior).

  • Problems with Flash Player being recognized in Windows 8.1

    I downloaded the most current Window OS 8 (8.1) and afterwards I  started having issues with my Flash Player working. It says that I need to install the latest version of Flash which I have done and it recognizes that it is already installed on my system if I try again.I have also gone through the steps to enable Flash object in settings and ActiveX filter, as directed. Neither of these solutions made a difference. I am running a 64-bit system. Can you help?

    This is a known problem with Internet Exploder 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
    Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.
