The update on 05/02/2010 has slowed my browser a LOT
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== after the 05/02/2010 update

Hi - there are several issues that can cause Firefox to seem "slow". Go through this short list of possibilities, and get back with me:
* Frequent "Problem loading page" issues are likely caused by a firewall. See [[Cannot connect after upgrading Firefox]] for instructions on how to check firewalls. Antivirus toolbars are another possibility to check; see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* Slow when loading Flash/Java: These issues are usually caused by add-ons or by outdated plugins. First, upgrade all outdated plugins by checking [http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/]. If it's still slow, see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* Slow to start up: This is most often caused by an extension delaying Firefox's startup. See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].

    It's important that you have a steady WiFi connection, ZealousEdge. What phone do you have? Is your phone unable to connect to any WiFi network? If you can, please try deleting the saved WiFi network and re-adding it.

  • I downloaded the Apple update yesterday and my computer has slowed down plus I can't move emails to my different mailboxes.

    Why has my computer slowed down?  I downloaded the update yesterday and since then the color wheel keeps circling and I can't download or move emails to my different mailboxes.  There is no consistent patern in which emails can be transferred.  There is a consistent patern with the color wheel coming on while I am typing and stoping the recording of the keys.

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • After downloading the update ios7 my moms phone has been locked with a four digit security code that she didn't have before the update. So she is locked out of her phone. How do I get rid of the four digit code

    HOw do I unlock the phone if there was never a lock code on there before the update?

    Yep.  Same here.  There's a NEW feature in iOS7 for Find my iPhone.  It requires a passcode.  My wife never had a passcode and doesn't have her computer to restore the backup.
    Spent an hour on the phone with customer service last night trying to restore the phone to factory settings but it didn't allow us access.
    Right now we have a 9-month old brick sitting on the table.
    Who in their right mind decided to release this feature that requires a passcode without checking first to see if the user has a passcode?
    I was not really polite to the support staff last night on the call but the person was very professional.  Kudos to how he handled my call but this is just stupid.  So Microsoft-like, so un-Apple-like.
    This feature with this iOS rollout is a big failure and my wife, who didn't want an iPhone until she got (and loved it) but is now out looking for an Android device.  Apple has lost a customer that they had only recently won over.

  • After downloading the update ios6 my iPad is extremely slow how can this be fixed, After downloading the update iso6 my iPad is extremely slow how can this be fixed

    After downloading the update for my iPad 3rd gen my iPad is extremely slow. How can this be fixed???

    You may have to restore your iPad using Recovery mode, but try a reset first. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let go of the buttons when you see the logo. This takes about 10-15 seconds.
    IF the update will not complete or you see the connect to iTunes message on the screen, you have to restore your iPad.

  • After java update 7.51, seems firefox has slowed. anyone else?

    Today's Date: January 24, 2014. updated Java on prompt at bootup a couple of days ago. Thereafter, seems that Firefox is somewhat slower in page changes, or clicking on links on some few websites that I visit regularly. I have no web design skills, so I don't know the terminology. I do hear the CPU/GPU fans revving up more than I recall.
    I am using Firefox 26, or latest.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

  • I updated to ios6 with my iPhone 4 and after the update I connected to my Sweex wireless(the first connection after the update) and since then it has some kind of a problem.

    The phone cannot connect to App Store , Weather , iTunes(phone) nor some other things for e.g I cannot post photos to Instagram but still can use the app just to look at others pictures except uploading mine..

  • Although I have downloaded firefox 3.6.12 several times none will execute the update. Asus eeepc OS Linux Xandros current browser firefox 2

    I need to upgrade to Flashplayer 10 but cannot until firefox is upgraded

    I have an eeePC/Xandros.
    It's possible - but difficult - to update Firefox on the eeePC. Search on the eeePC forums - it's been covered there.
    You may find it easier to update the OS to Ubuntu's Netbook Remix. That's what I decided to do - though I haven't done it yet!

  • Update to process version 2010 & smart collection "has adjustments"

    Buying the new Lightroom 3 version ofcourse I wanted to profit of the new process version. So I selected all images I had "not adjusted" before and selected Update to Process version 2010. This works great.
    However I now have one problem.
    I had and have a Smart collection which helps me in my workflow to find all images that have not been touched, so have no adjustments.
    This Smart collection has become worthless because of the update to process version 2010 all images have been adjusted.
    Ok, this is correct and yet I miss my ability to select images which I have not adjusted.
    Once I have set the default process version to 2010 all new images are correctly shown.
    Question: how can I select all those images which have only the process version updated, but have no further adjustments?

    Changing the process to version 2010 is considered as an adjustment; it will appear in the photo's history in the same way as any other development adjustment. The smart filter condition "Has Adjustments" only has a true or false setting so you can't distinguish the process version adjustment from any other. Instead of using this method to spot the photos I need to work on, I find that I have more control over my workflow by using keywords such as "review", "develop", "print"; you can make these keywords not exportable so that they are not part of the keyword list in exported photos.
    Interestingly, when one or more photos are selected in the  film strip and the reset button is clicked in develop mode the photo  will revert back to its original state, the "Has Adjustments" condition  will become false, but the process version will remain at 2010.
    If you have a backup of your catalog that precedes the step where you updated the process version of all photos, open this backup, add a keyword of your choice to all the photos that have not been touched, then apply the process version change. You can then change your smart catalog to use this keyword as opposed to the "Has Adjustment" condition and remove the keyword you have set on photos that have not been touched as soon as you are done editing them. IMPORTANT: Any changes you have made following the date and time of the backup will be lost.
    If you don't have a backup to go to, you will have to manually identify which photos, which from your point of view, have not been touched.
    Some ideas:
    If you did not make other edits following the change of the process version, and have not made other edits on that date, you could built a smart collection based on the 'Edit Date" and then reset the develop settings of all the photos in that collection.
    Another possible condition is a "Capture Date" range where you know photos haven't been touched yet.
    There may be other options, there may be a plugin that can help you, or ultimately there would be means to access the database outside of Lightroom - contact me if you get that desperate to fix this!

  • I did the update today and now itunes can't see my ipod, uninstalled iTunes and all the recommended things, nothing has worked

    I did the update today and now itunes can't see my ipod, uninstalled iTunes and all the recommended things, nothing has worked.
    It worked just fine last weekend. I have windows 8.1 and a brand new pc, new iPod also, the new Nano. now after the update today, iTunes says iPod has been detected but could not be indentified properly. I can see it in windows. I tried the reset on the iPod also. what else can I do?? HELP

    uninstalled iTunes and all the recommended things
    Doublechecking. Have you tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

  • TS1702 I am updating my IPAD to version 5.1 and the update has stopped before completion. What is the procedure. If I stop the update or restart the IPAD will the update be corrupted and also the IPAD operating system.

    I am updating a new IPAD to the latest version from ITUNES. The update is not complete and has stopped. What  is the procedure to restart? If I close ITUNES i get a message that the IPAD is updating. Will closing the application cause the update to be corrupted and thus the operating system? Will the same occur if I power the IPAD down or disconnect it vis the USB port?
    Help!!!

    AppleWill - when i closed the app and restarted Itunes, I had to go thru a Restore process. The restore goes to certain point and stops. It seems at the same time as the Update stopped. I can Force a stop and reboot the computer and try again. It possible the screensaver interrupted the restore? It doesn't sound right. Any suggestions?
    You may also want to go to:
    ~/Library/iTunes/
    This is done by  going to the "Go" in the Finder and select Go To Folder. Copy and paste:
    ~/Library/iTunes/
    In to Go To Folder selection. Look for a folder called iPad Software Updates. Delete anything in that folder and re download the upadate.

  • MacBook Air 2010 Very Slow (even after clean reinstall)

    Hi,
    Problem
    The performance of my Macbook Air 2010 has slowed to the point where I can hardly complete basic tasks. For comparison, I use a MacBook Air 2013 at work and do not experience the same performance issues, so I believe my expectations are not unreasonably high.
    My Question
    Can you please advise on what I can do to troubleshoot? I've tried the solutions listed below, all of which have failed.
    I'm grateful for any help you can offer.
    Problem Description
    Switching contexts or tabs, operating within applications (such as Chrome, small Excel spreadsheets, navigating files), and browsing the Internet has become a slow, laggy and crash-filled experience.
    When right-clicking an icon and selecting 'Open With', Finder frequently times out or requires time to populate a list of applications.
    Machine is slow to the point where, unless a solution presents itself, I'll have to get a new MacBook Air.
    What I've Tried
    'Religiously' close all applications after use; extremely conscientious of number of applications running and their resource requirements.
    Clean reinstall of OS X.
    Storing all media on external hard drive to create more storage space.
    Clearing cache for all browsers regularly
    Always running machine on battery power
    Regular reboots
    Machine Specs:
    MacBook Air 13-inch, Late 2010
    OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2
    Processor: 2.13 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory: 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB
    Storage: 87GB free of 250GB

    Thanks, dominic23.
    Unfortunately, it did not work.
    -Tried starting in safe mode, resetting SMC, and repairing disk. Resetting the SMC helped upon reboot, but performance degraded swiftly and back at a low within 30-minutes.
