Problems w/ver 27 and xp sp3; should I give up on xp and go to Win 7 PRO 64bit where I find no problems?

OS = Win XP SP3
Cannot change/edit location of downloads; the only download available is DOWNLOADS
This ver of MF takes about 15 seconds to load NASCAR website
After I select any website to load a small, rotating circle appears in the upper-left of the screen and remains until, finally, the page has completely loaded.
I do not have this problem w/win 7 pro 64 bit
Installing MF 4 solves this problem on the Win XP SP3 OS.
I do not find this problem on older laptops running the same XP OS.

Have you done any routine maintenance on that computer recently?
What happens if you use a different browser on that computer?
Are you running the most up-to-date version of Firefox on that computer?
What do you mean by MF4?

    IF it is a manufacturing defect and you bought the device from Apple or an authorized Apple retailer, then take it into Apple.

    Did you try to charge it using the adapter or your computer?
    If you can, let it charge for about 15min, then connect in recovery mode, described in this article:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    If still not luck, your battery might have to be replaced:

  • HT4367 Rented a movie but it won't download. Rented it again and was told to go to settings and download. Should I be renting from iCloud and not my iMac? Never happened before and been renting all week since Thanksgiving!

    Apple TV 2 with rebooting the iPhone 7.04 and iMac running Mavericks and rebooting TV etc today. Selected to rent a movie but it started to download and we lost it. Tried to rent again and was told it wasn't downloaded. Went to settings and only get spinning circle when I try to download the rental. Apple TV up to date and been renting all week since Thankgiving. Only 4.99 but making me nuts. Help anyone??

    Dear Colbabomb; thankyou for your links.
    So far, I looked at your first solution, Revo Uninstaller and it gives you a 30 free trial. Ergo, it will eventually cost money so I'm leery of using those kinds of programs in general, meaning most "free trials" have unwanted strings attached and often are big probs to get rid of later. Perhaps you can assure me that it is easy and very user friendly, before I proceed. And I already ran malwarebytes and it found nothing tho the program still can't be uninstalled. I downloaded Adw Cleaner and during the install, my Norton's security popped up and warned that there were (low risk) threats with two of their "other offers" and i hadn't even actually clicked to agree either of them. Nonetheless, Norton warned me against the "lyrics finder" and "deal ply." In fact, there was a box already with an x in it, saying that you are accepting deal ply if you x on "next." Well, except I unchecked that box before clicking on next, yet when it went to fully install, it still showed that it was adding itself; so, just before the install was 100% completed, I had to abort the whole thing. I really do hope your other suggestions are programs that you personally know that they don't try and trick you. But right now, I would not suggest Adw Cleaner to anyone. I even read the fine print about what they will try and install and how to decline and it still tried sticking stuff on that i believed I had declined. Anyways, i have to leave now, shall pick up later this evening, if my pc is still functioning.

  • Acrobat and Reader XI freeze 3 secs after opening (force close needed). Win 8.1. Restart usually removes problem, sometimes repair.

    Please help.
    Running Adobe Acrobat and reader XI ( latest versions). PC is Lenovo ThinkPad 440 S. Don't think I've got any plug-ins that are affecting this, but Dragon NaturallySpeaking is installed on PC, and I know this sometimes causes problems with some programs.
    I can uninstall and reinstall either of the programs, and sometimes after a day or a week the problem returns. Restarting the computer will usually cause it to disappear for awhile and then it returns. The freeze is always the same, about three seconds after opening a document, it freezes and I have to close the program and restart the computer if I want the program to work again. I've tried switching off the security settings as suggested a number of websites, and this sometimes seems to help, but the problem nevertheless returns. I've got Acrobat on trial, and would like to buy, but I'm not going to do so and as this problem can be solved.
    I've tried installing the programs multiple times, both clean install and repair and this doesn't stop the problem from happening, and it's happened over the two latest updates to the programme with no success. Out of interest, I've also noticed it doesn't always save my preferences between opening the program (e.g. page view preferences).
    Many thanks for any input,
    Jason Anderson

    Hi Jason,
    I would recommend you to do a selected startup and then enable the programs one by one to isolate which program might be causing this.
    Please refer the KB: Restart Windows in a modified mode | Windows 7, Vista for selective startup of Windows.

  • 3gs no service after updating to ios 5 tried network reset, reset all settings and even restoring from back been with out phone for 3 weeks now need help telus cant find network problem and apple has bad customer support please help!!!

    my 3gs has no service after updating from ios 5 tried resetting network settings, resetting all settings and restoring from back up on itunes.
    telus cant find any network problems and apple is difficult to deal with.please help 3 weeks with no phone and $70 a month not happy.

    I have been having a similar problem for the last few days.Without warning the signal will just completely duck out leaving the device searching for several minutes before settling on a no signal message.
    Sometimes restarting the device, toggling data and 3g settings or toggling Airplane Mode will set things right. However, a lot of the time I've been left without a working phone.
    I don't believe this is a SIM issue, as I had to change my SIM only one month ago for another signal related problem. Again any help would be appreciated here as well.

  • When I tried to download some music to my IPhone off of my PC and it said "Should we trust this computer?" and I accidentally clicked Don't Trust. How do I fix it so it will trust my computer?

    How do I fix this? I need this music downloaded so I can pratice for a play.

    When you connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new computer or another device attempting to access the files of your iOS device, you’ll be asked to verify that you trust the connected device. Tapping Trust will allow this device to access files stored on your iOS device.
    If your iOS device is passcode locked, you need to unlock the device before you're asked to trust the connected computer or device.
    To trust a computer:
    Connect the computer or other device to your iOS device.
    If your iOS device is locked with a passcode, unlock it.
    Tap Trust.
    If you're about to sync the device with iTunes, click Accept.
    The trusted computer or device can access the files and settings of your iOS device. A trusted computer can sync with your iOS device, import photos, access movies and videos, contacts, and other such content, until you disconnect. The data stored on your iOS device is not exposed before you enter your passcode (if enabled) and choose to trust the connected computer or device.
    If you choose not to trust the connected computer, you can charge your device, but the connected computer won't be able to access any content on your device.
    Additional Information
    Note: If you select Trust, the computer will be trusted indefinitely. If you select Don't Trust, you will be asked if you want to trust that computer each time you connect your device to that computer.
    RECONNECT IT AGAIN AND PRESS TRUST

  • Where to find after "Archive and Install"

    Hi everyone. I recently installed Leopard onto my Macbook. During the process, I used the archive and install feature to save all of my old data and files. Right now everything is located in the "Previous System" folder on my hard drive. I am trying to find my iCal information, but don't know where it's located. Does anyone know?
    I didn't backup any of my calendars. I didn't think I would have to since all the information should already be saved.

    aimili,
    If you actually accomplished an Archive and Install, you should be able to open iCal and the previous calendar information will populate your upgraded iCal. What calendar information is displayed in iCal when you open the application?
    If your old calendars are not displayed you should be able to find your previous information in folders named something like 4A1DC586-14EC-4D42-B659-BEBA31968385.calendar in the Users/yourusername/Library/Application Support/iCal/Sources Folder of your previous system folder. There will be as many of these folders as you had calendars on the previous system, but they will have different alpha numeric names on your computer than the example which I just gave you.
    Open these oddly named folders and you will find the corestorage.ics files containing your former calendars.
    Use iCal to import the corestorage files by using the iCal>File>Import... menu command to navigate to and import the appropriate corestorage.ics file for each of your calendars.
    Did you ever use .Mac? If so, you may also have calendar information that can be retrieved from that service.
    ;~)

    I have tried to purchase Adobe Acrobat Professional XI this morning and payment (AED 1983.53) has been taken, I received a message stating there was/is a problem processing my order and that I should contact your customer service team in UAE.  Having tried this, I was met with a recorded message, in Arabic, and no options to speak to anyone.  I have found this process extremely frustrating and poor on your behalf.  Not providing any options to speak to an Adobe representative is equally annoying.  Please get back to me ASAP, as I need to use the product immediately.

    CS2 is very old and reached its "end of life" a while back.  So probably won't run on modern operating systems.  If you can still run it, you'll need to uninstall what you have and re-install with the download link below to activate it.

    There may be a defect in the phone. As you bought it in the US the only place you can get it looked at is in the US.
    When you say you bought it new, unlocked did you buy it directly from an Apple store? If you did not it was hacked to unlock it, which could also be your problem. Apple stores are the only place in the US that sells legitimately unlocked iPhones.

    no you should transcode those files into an format that os suitable for editing. Like proRez. Although you might need some Flip4Mac or perian or something to do the conversion.

  • I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel?

    I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel? Is Parallel in fact the best way to go?

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.
