QuickTime 7.7.1, Windows Vista, Internet Explorer, and .mpg files

After updating QuickTime to 7.7.1, QuickTime runs whenever I click on a .mpg file in Internet Explorer, under Windows Vista.
The last time this happened I had to go into QuickTime>Edit>Preferences>QuickTime Preferences>Browser>Mime Settings and uncheck the MIME association to .mpg files.
This time with QuickTime 7.7.1, clicking on MIME Settings just opens up Windows Default Programs association window, not the Quicktime MIME associations. .mpg is unchecked, and Windows Media Player is associated with .mpg. All file types that are checked for QuickTime are grayed out, and cannot be unchecked.
Any ideas?

Solution found:
After making sure Windows Media Player is the default player in Windows Default Programs for file types .mp3 and .mpg, open Internet Explorer, click on Tools>Internet Options>Programs>Set Programs>Set program access and computer defaults>Custom>Choose a default media player: Then click on Windows Media Player radio button.
In Customs, you have to either click on the word Customs or click on the down arrows to the far right of Customs to expand the choices, and find "Choose a default media player:"
You will also have to be logged in as Administrator or have the Admin password to reset this choice.

Windows vista, internet explorer 8 and adobe reader 9

I have windows vista, internet explorer 8 and adobe reader 9. When i open pdf files from a website i cannot save the document. I don't get an error message, it just does not open.

Have you tried capturing these application in separate packages? I have been successful in capturing IE8 in one package and Adobe Reader XI in another package and then using the OptionalAppLinks option in the IE8 package to point to the Adobe Reader dat file. Just make sure that both packages work outside of the applinking. Also, you can try to install Adobe to the native machine and see if the embedded pdfs work in the virtual IE package.
These are just the troubleshooting steps that I would take to narrow down what is causing the issue you are seeing.

WINDOWS VISTA/INTERNET EXPLORER-GOING CRAZY!!!

Have latest version installed. Have unchecked Active X Filtering and have enabled Flash in add-ons. Works on adobe test site but not on other sites. HELP PLEASE!!!!

What exactly means "works ... not"; what do you see instead of the expected Flash content?

Since upgrading from Windows Vista to Windows 7 both Internet Explorer and Firefox will not recognize the numbers keys of my keyboard. I get numbers in Word and every other situation, just not in the internet programs.

If there are problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
If you do not have the menu bar in IE then right-click the toolbar at the top to enable the Menu Bar.
*Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html):<br>File > Import and Export
*Import the HTML file in Firefox:<br>Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML

Touch Screen windows 8 internet explorer

The computer has 2 different types of internet explorers. One is in the desktop area, this is the normal internet explorer browser. Then the 2nd one is the the apps start window, this internet explorer is the new version for easy touch screen use. But when I touch that one it automatically takes me to the desktop and opens that old version.

I have windows vista home premium and all other versions of iTunes worked on my laptop iTunes 10 won't work, I get a message saying I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my browser configuration?

I have windows vista home premium and all other iTunes worked on my laptop, I downloaded iTunes 10 and now the iTunes will not connect to the Internet. I use Mozilla firefox on my laptop and for some reason it keeps saying the connection timed out and I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my web configuration?

It probably has to do with your security and/or browser configuration.
When my laptop crashed last year and I had to get a new one, I dealt with the same thing. First, go to your control panel and select the security section. See if your firewalls are up or not. If they are, turn them off. If you have any software to speed up your browser, that can affect the connection as well. Go into that software and disble/turn it off. If this doesn't work, contact customer support. They have a few other tricks they had me try that worked, but I can't remember them now.

How to close Internet Explorer and other programs running on Windows?

In order for Flash Player to be installed or updated, any programs that use Flash Player must be closed. This includes Internet Explorer or other browsers, instant messengers, Skype, etc.
These programs may be running in the background, not as visible windows, but need to be closed anyway.
To close such programs use the Windows Task Manager. To start Task Manager, take any of the following actions:
Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE, and then click Task Manager.
Press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC.
Right-click an empty area of the taskbar, and then click Task Manager.
Once the Task Manager is running, select the Processes tab. On older Windows version you may need to click on the Process Name or Image Name header to sort the process names.
Now right-click on every process that the Flash Player installer needs to close (e.g. iexplore.exe), then select End Process.
It would be desirable if the Flash Player installer could perform that action by itself; I have therefore created an enhancement request. If you were affected by this problem, please head over to the Bugbase and vote for this request: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3548136

First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/867968
Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-11
If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

Maximize the oracle forms window in internet explorer

hi to all,
how can maximize the oracle forms window in internet explorer? my current display setting is 1280x1024. im using forms 10g r1
pls. i need your help.

It's probably important to know that although you can command the forms_mdi window to maximize, it won't actually "maximize". It will remain in the "normal"state. This is a current limiation that can likely only be overcome with a custom java bean.

URL issue with Windows 7 Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW PI 7.

Hello SAP community,
I am facing a strange issue with Windows 7 - Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW java services (I hope I am in the correct discussion) ...
When I try to open URL http://sapserver.hosters-name:port it is working so far with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 11.
But when I click than on NWA (example), I am getting "http 500 server error".
I don't have the issue, when I start-up a VMware Workstation with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8.
But now the strange part: In our network DNS (Domain Name Service), we can also open the URL by http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
Than it is working without problems with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer.
I would agree to state the comment - it is just a Windows 7/Internet Explorer 11 issue, if it wouldn't work for both URLs (http://sapserver.hosters-name:port = problem URL; http://sapserver.our-dsn:port = working).
We are using a SAP NW PI 7.x system. Some URLs for PI are using http://sapserver.hosters-name:port/java service.
Do you have any hints what is cause the issue - I suspect some with Internet Explorer and Firefox (because with Google Chrome at least the URL for NWA is opened, beside the issue, Google Chrome can't display NWA content)?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards
Carlos

Hi all,
I think I found the solution.
The reason seems to be, the domain name for http://sapserver.our-dns:port, "our-dns" was already added to the compatibility view settings of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
That seemed to be the reason, why it was working with http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
When I now added for http://sapserver.hosters-name:port the domain "hosters-name" to the compatibility view settings it is now working.
Internet Explorer Options => Settings for compatibility view => Add domain
Best regards
Carlos

Title Format Issues Since Upgrade to Windows XP Internet Explorer 8

Users' old PCs: Windows 2000 Internet Explorer 6
Users' new PCs: Windows XP Internet Explorer 8
My users are having a problem with the title layout of their Discoverer Plus reports ever since they had thies PC upgraded from Windows 2000 Internet Explorer 6 to Windows XP Internet Explorer 8. One aspect of their titles is that they have an &parameters in the title. The values for this one paramater has dozens and dozens of paramater values. For example: Project # 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.......87. That's what they want to appear in their title screen, all those project #s. The core of the problem is this list of values going across their title screen is no longer wrapping to the next line since they moved to XP IE 8. It's forcing this long list of project #s to be all on one line (cutting off the list of projects when it reaches the end of the page).
When my users were on Windows 2000 Internet Explorer 6, the project values would wrap to the next line without any problem (creates 4 or 5 lines of project #s). They have been having the title issue since their PCs have been upgraded to Windows XP Internet Explorer 8. When I edit the header from a 2000 IE6 machine (where it works from), the font is Arial. But, if I edit the header on an XP IE8 machine the font says dialog and the wrapping doesn't work. If I try to change the font to Arial, hit ok, nothing changes and it seems to reset back to dialog when I go back in to edit.
Anyone else have this problem or know of a solution?
Thanks!

Hi
Not all versions of Discoverer are certified for use with IE8. You will find this note on Oracle Support (https://support.oracle.com/CSP/ui/flash.html) very useful: 233047.1
In there it states that only Discoverer 11g and Discoverer 10g (patched up to 10.1.2.3) are certified with IE8. Discoverer 10g (10.1.2.2 and earlier) is certified for IE6 and IE7 but not IE8 and Oracle has no plans to certify 10.1.2.2 with IE8.
Older releases of Discoverer, prior to 10.1.2, are generally only certified for IE6.
Best wishes

Is there vi that can close Windows 7 Internet Explorer?

Greetings,
I develop LabVIEW executables for internal use. We have a very loose IT policy. When our techs are running my LabVIEW programs, I want Windows 7 Internet Explorer disabled, or closed when the LabVIEW executable is running. I am thinking that there must be a way to have LabVIEW look for any open Internet Explorer Windows, and close them every 10 seconds or so. Any ideas of how to accomplish this?
Thanks, Alan

You can use Web Browser ActiveX object to stop IE browser during your application running.

This will not stop an Internet Explorer that's been launched by the user. It only applies to an embedded IE ActiveX control.
Stop IE Browser Windows Service.
What IE Browser Windows service? There is no such thing.
To OP: You can:
Use System Exec to kill any currently running iexplore.exe processes using the kill command. Or you could just blindly send this periodically.
You could use the Windows API Function Utilities (32-bit) for LabVIEW to check if an Internet Explorer window is open (though this may not be robust since it depends on the window name) and then close that window.
You could uninstall IE.
Of course, this won't stop somebody from using Firefox, or using an app-on-a-stick approach by putting a browser like Firefox or Chrome on a USB stick.
Usually in these cases education goes farther than you trying to prevent somebody from running something like a web browser.

Mostly websites are not open on internet explorer and other browsers in my laptop

mostly web sites are not open in internet explorer and other web browsers in my laptop.

Rob,
Many thanks for your reply. It is appreciated greatly. I have added text against each of the points that you raise.
troubleshooting Addons is somewhat complex.....as from this side we do not know which addon may be causing the problem, so the
only recourse is to disable the types of addons that commonly cause problems in IE (for security and usablility reasons some older addons that you may have used previously with IE8/XP are no longer compatible with newer versions of IE that you are now using)....
The following instructions will stop your Toolbar and Browser Helper addons from loading in IE.
Start>Control Panel>Internet Options>Advanced tab,
uncheck "enable third-party browser extensions".
close any open IE windows and restart IE for the changes to take effect.
[GotaQ: Yes, did this but the problem then is that IE won’t open for me. There is no icon in the start menu or task bar
and routes such as using a command prompt or ‘run’ instruction don’t work. When I try this I get a window on screen that flickers for a bit and then disappears.]
Alternatively, your problem with keyboard input is most likely being caused by a form filling addon or a finger print reader
addon? Note: some addons like the Google toolbar have multiple features like form filling, you can disable the GTB's form filling features from its settings dialog (click the 'spanner' icon on the toolbar)
Use Tools>Manage Addons>Show all addons to locate any such addons and use the Addons Manager to disable them. (close and
reopen any open IE windows for the full changes to take effect).
[GotaQ: I tried disabling all of the add-ons in Google Chrome and the key-stroke mapping problem persisted, unfortunately!]

Flash Player Freezing and Crashing Internet explorer and Google Chrome

Hello,
I have a dell xps 16 running on i7, windows 7 home premium 64 bit, 4gb ram, 500gb hdd. For at least a year i have been having problems viewing sites that use flash player such as youtube, and facebook. I orginally thought my anti virus was the problem because when ever I uninstalled it the flash began to work. I switched anti-virus programs about 3 times go from mcafee to kaspersky to avg 9.0 full...and it still would freeze up on me. Now it has been 2 weeks since I uninstalled avg 9.0 and now it has started freezing up my internet explorer and chrome when ever i go to youtube or facebook. Also for some strange reasion it also is making some of my programs like pinnacle studios 14, itunes, and window media player unresponsive. Currently I have taken flash out of my computer. And i have to use my ipad to view youtube videos..but i still can not view flash. I have heard this has happended to many people on mulitple o.s. , Please help. I have tried reinstalling it and it says that instalation failed evertime. Ive also tried reinstalling my os with no success. I ve tried reseting my browsers and reinstalling them....no success.

Hi a, I wonder what happened since it was working on 7/21/10. Then after you Installed AVG9 you started having problems, even after disabling the AVG add ons, etc.
You have had this freezing issue for awhile and I don't know what is causing it, although cleaning up McAfee certainly helped and the Re-Install of Flash Player.
I think the first thing you should do is go to the Kaspersky website and find out if there is an Uninstaller to use and use it if there is. Then I would go to AVG 9 and do the same. Then Reboot after using each one. That way you will have had a Clean Uninstall of both of them.
Then go to Microsoft and Install Windows Defender. That way you would have some protection and that along with the Windows Firewall will help until we see what is causing this freezing and then you can Install AVG again.
Also these: Dellweb cam central, informational alerts, dell data safe online, oovoo, fastaccess.. I wonder if any or a combination are conflicting. Have you had these for sometime or were any added about the time you started having issues? I am not familiar with them, but if they are in your system tray, I would guess they use Flash? I would try to disable them all at once, try your websites, especially youtube. If you have no problem, enable only one of those and test youtube again. Then enable another one and so on and if any are conflicting, you will be able to find the one.
Thanks
