Starting in Firefox 14, Firefox will guess an address and place it in the address bar (AutoFill feature). If you have ever connected to the site using a secure (HTTPS) connection, then Firefox will try to connect security to the address suggested by the AutoFill feature. To work around this you can:
* Edit the address to force Firefox to interpret your entry literally. For example, if there is a trailing / you can remove it.
* Turn off the URL bar AutoFill feature and just use the AutoSuggest drop-down.
* Clear Firefox's memory of the site so it doesn't default to a secure connection (however, this also removes any bookmarks you have to pages on the site).
To disable the in-address-bar autofill without losing the suggestions that appear below the bar:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''autofill''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''browser.urlbar.autoFill''' to toggle it from true to false. You're done with about:config and you can close this tab.
"Forget about this site" will clear cache, history, bookmarks, and permissions for the site, and probably any saved certificate. There are two ways to get to this:
* History > Show All History, right-click an entry for the site > "Forget about this site"
* Type or paste about:permissions in the address bar and press Enter, then select the site from the list on the left side, and click the "Forget about this site" button on the right side
Depending on the size of your history and cache, this may lock Firefox up for a minute or two while everything is cleansed.

  • Remote device will not accept the connection

    Oh Windows 8...
    I've been having computer issues for a while now, but I always figured it was the application I was using to access the internet. I first noticed an issue when trying to log into World of Warcraft. There was an obvious connection issue, but I could still
    connect to my account. I contacted Blizzard about it, and nothing they told me to do helped me. This has been going on for nearly a month. Today, after not playing for a couple days, I realized I couldn't access the game at all. I blamed Blizzard again, and
    became frustrated with them because none of their solutions ever helped me.
    Today, instead of playing WoW, I tried to play Sims 4, which requires you to launch Origin, an application that uses the internet. Origin wouldn't let me connect either. A similar error to the one I experienced with World of Warcraft and its starter program
    (BattleNet) appeared. Again, I blamed the provider of the application.
    Still bored, I tried launching Steam, yet another gaming application that requires internet use. No, yet again I received a similar error to the other two. By now I figured it was an issue with the computer itself. I launched a connection test and it told
    me that the "Remote device or resource will not accept the connection".
    I tried launching Internet Explorer. I got the message that the "proxy server is not responding". I'm beyond frustrated. Thank god I also have Firefox installed, so here I am.
    I looked up possible solutions to my issue. All the possible solutions I've found are only about Internet Explorer, and none of those solutions have helped anyone else with my issue.
    So I guess it's on your end here. I have no use for this computer at all at this point. Help me out, please. I just recently bought this computer and I don't want to have to purchase another one to get away from Windows/Microsoft.

    Hi,
    This issue can be caused by proxy settings or malware.
    I suggest you to disable proxy settings. Follow these steps:
    Under "Tools" in the browser tool bar select "Internet Options".
    In the "Internet Options" window that pops up, click the "Connections" tab at the top.
    Click "LAN Settings" near the bottom of the "Connections" section.
    If the "Proxy server" checkbox is marked with a check, click it to deselect/uncheck it.
    Click "Ok" to close the "Local Area Network (LAN) Settings" window.
    Click "Ok" to close the "Internet Options" window.
    Now check if you are able to connect to Internet Explorer.
    You can download and run the Windows Malicious Removal Tool from the below mentioned link and run it on your computer:

    Hope these could be helpful.

  • Getting an error "Remote Access Service Error" while establishing the connection usng SonicWall Netextender.

    * Original Title: SonicWall Netextender issue with Windows 8.1
    I am able to install SonicWall Netextender version 6.0.181 without any issues in my Windows 8.1 machine. When i try to establish the connection getting this error "Remote Access Service Error - Rebooting might Solve the problem".
    Hope someone can help me in resolving this issue.

    Hi,
    Please go to Windows Service manager, run "services.msc", then Look for the Remote Access Auto Connection Manager and Remote Access Connection Manager to see if those two services have been started. If not, set them to automatic start, reboot the machine,
    and install\configure NetExtender again.
    Since this is a third party application, it's recommended to contact the application vender to check the compatibility with Windows 8.1\IE 11, because they're more familiar with the application.

  • BT Broadband wont accept the password

    Hi all, I've just taken delivery of my new BBHH3 router.
    I put in the BT disc supplied but, for some reason, t will not accept the password printed on the back of the hub.
    I have restarted and retried on countless occasions but still no luck.
    It connects to the hub fine via ethernet and the BT Vision box is working fine
    I can connect to BT Wifi fine.
    This is a Lenovo C325 all in one desktop PC with built in wifi...
    Thanks in advance.

    Stick the disk back in the box. You don't need it.
    Be very careful when typing the password. It will be case-sensitive, and watch out for digits that look like letters (and vice-versa).
    Edit: are you entering the correct password?  There's one to get into the Home Hub's settings (which you can do via wired ethernet), and one to connect via WiFi.  If you can find the former, you can log on to the box to check the latter.

  • HT3702 for some reason suddenly itunes will not accept my visa debit cards security code and i have no idea why... all the information is correct but it wont accept the security code.. Please help i cant purchase or update any app or anything

    I don't know why but itunes just suddenly wouldn't accept the security code???

    Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorisations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I would try contacting your Host to see if perhaps their server might have firewalled your connection for some odd reason. It's possible. It's also possible your IP address changed while making a new post, and resulted in your connection getting stuck with BOGON filter issues.

  • I can't bluetooth my photos from my old phone to my iphone 4. i have paired the devices but my iphone wont accept the data. Please can you help??

    I am trying to send all of m photos to my iphone from my old phone (Nokia N97 mini). I have paired the devices, the iphone says it is connedted but when i try to transfer the data from the Nokia, i get a message saying could not connect.
    Please can you help??
    Thanks

    File transfer by bluetooth is not supported on the iPhone. There are a few apps in the app store that permit the transferring of photos by bluetooth, but this is only iPhone to iPhone. Fact is, you can't do what you're trying to do, so you can quit trying.

  • Trying to show macbook air to use EHD as iPhoto library but it wont accept the change?

    I am trying to get more space on my macbook air by moving the default location from internal HD to EHD.  I hold alt down and click on iPhoto.  Select the EHD, then select the folder with all my photos and it wont allow me to click open.  What am I doing wrong?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can only open iPhoto with an iPhoto library, not with any folder with photos inside.
    By default, the iPhoto library is stored in the Pictures folder, so go there and move your iPhoto library to your external drive. Then you can open iPhoto with the Alt key and choose your iPhoto library in your external drive as the default iPhoto library. After checking this, remove the iPhoto library in the Pictures folder

  • HT1918 i am trying to change credit card to settle a balance and it wont accept the new card

    i am having trouble changing credit card

    What happens when you try to add it ? If it's a credit card (I don't think that debit cards are still accepted) then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is and it's being declined then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they can help : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management
