    First night I was able to watch 2 TV shows (45 min each) with no problems, but thereafter programs will not stream without constant pause to buffer. Weather conditions are ideal and my internet comes from crappy hugesnet, but worked fine the first night.

    The speed may have been ok at that time and is too inconsistent/too slow overall. interference may have proven to be more of an issue since as well. If using public DNS that will provide Intermittant results
    I'm sure using a hotspot would be fine but it depends on your viewing habits. An HD movie is around 4-5GB. It would also be subject to speed. requirements so best to test to see how it compares.
    You would have to check with your Carrier if hotspot it's enabled then just to into your settings and toggle it ON

  • My firefox works but my safari will not load anything

    my firefox works but my safari will not load any websites

    What OS version are you running?
    10.10
    Safari/Preferences/Advanced - enable the Develop menu, then go there and Empty Caches. Quit/reopen Safari and test. Then try Safari/History/Show History and delete all history items.  Quit/reopen Safari and test. You can also try try Safari/Clear History and Web Site Data. The down side is it clears all cookies.Doing this may cause some sites to no longer recognize your computer as one that has visited the web site.

  • TS3048 My keyboard will connect wirelessly but my mouse will not. I've put new batteries in the mouse and the green light is blinking but it just won't connect!!! I don't have a 'wired' mouse so I can't get into preferences etc!!! Pls help

    My keyboard will connect wirelessly but my mouse will not. I have tried many times, put new batteries in etc. The Bluetooth appears to be on (as the wireless keyboard is working). I don't have a 'wired' mouse so I can't get into preferences etc. Is the mouse dead perhaps? The green light is flickering so it should be ok???
    Thank you for your help

    From what you say I would suggest the batteries are not connecting properly.
    First, thoroughly clean all contacts, both inside the mouse and the contact points of the batteries.  Use an alcohol based cleaner (whisky will do, hic!)  dampen (not wet) cotton buds for cleaning.
    Then check to see if they fit firmly.   If you can shake your mouse and hear things are loose, that will be the batteries.   Check the make.   Apple and Duracell, in that order, are the best batteries.   Where slight undersizing has been reported they are with other than the foregoing.
    You can resolve the size problem with appropriate packing but that will always be a makeshift solution.  After, reassemble, turn on the mouse and with luck, away you go. 
    Hopefully this will solve your problem but in any case let us know how you get on.

  • Firefox was working but now it will not start. I get the following error: XLURunner error: Platform version '5.0' not compatible with minVersion =2.0.1 maxVersion = 2.0.1

    I am using Windows XP with Service pack 3

    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser_will_not_start_up#XULRunner_error_after_an_update
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • Flash Player usually works, but some things will not work.

    I've had a strange problem ever since I installed Windows 7 on my computer. Flash player almost always functions properly but does not work on a few specific things such as the music player on Myspace. The player shows up on any artists page but when I click the play button it changes to pause like normal then in about half a second it pauses the song and switches back to the play icon. I can press the play button again and it just does the same thing over and over again. It will pause the song and only play for about half a second between pauses.
    Another example is when I go to nikeid.com I can load the first flash page and select my language, then it goes to a loading screen where squares fade in and out but it will not go beyond that page. I can get passed the page on any other computer I've ever tried.
    Also, sometimes photo viewers that use flash will not display the photos properly. They will be off to one side and you can't see the photo.
    These same problems happen for me on multiple browsers including Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome. I've tried reinstalling Windows 7, and reinstalling Flash multiple times. I did not have any of these problems when I was using Windows Vista on this computer. On a final note I am using Windows 7 64bit but I am absolutely positive I am using 32bit web browsers when I am browsing the web. These things worked fine on Vista 64bit.
    Thank you for any and all help.

    I don't know any of the websites you mention, so I don't know what should or should not be happening on there.  Also are you sure they use Flash Player and not Shockwave Player?
    If Flash Player, try different settings like disabe/enable Hardware Acceleration, or Allow 3rd-party on http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.htm l or change the Storage settings for the websites in question at http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.htm l

  • After updatingting to Firefox 6.0, Firefox works, but Thunderbird email won't load. Restoring computer to Firefox 5, Thunderbird works but Firefox 5 will not!

    If you suggest trying to download Firefox 6.0 again, please advise where I should find it.
    Thank you.

  • HT201413 I do not have an apple product, but I do have Itunes on my computer, and it will not let me play my downloaded music-error message computer needs registered, and it is.  Can you help me?

    I have had iTunes on my computer, which is not an apple poducts for about 6 or 7yrs now, just recently it will not let me play the music I have downloaded.  I get a error message stating this computer is not registered.  So I put in the information to register it, and it tells me that this computer is already registered.  But I still can't play my music, the error message just keeps popping up.  Can anyone help me?

    Check the information on the song, Right-Click -> Get Info.
    In the fist pane, (Summary), you will see the AppleId (Account Name) that was used to buy the song.
    Be sure to login to use this account to register this computer to play the song
    What I often see, Is that people have many different AppleID, sometime not even knowing it, which is a big problem.

  • I updated my ipod touch 4th gen to IOS6 and now my music will not sync correctly. I have reset to factory settings twice, and the system works but my music will not sync

    Like i said above, my music will no longer sync. I can open the ipod, get on safari and what not, but when i attempt to sync, it says it is complete after less than a minute, and the music is not on it. I tried the manual artist upload and it is still unsuccessful

    Yeah, my itunes hasnt changed.

  • HT201210 Tried to reset iPod Touch.  Will not go past Connect to iTunes screen.  Connection is being made because I can see my apps in iTunes.

    In order to get rid of frozen screen, I did a reset from the utilities app.  Now I can not get past the "Connect to iTunes" screen.  I can see connection in iTunes and when I sync or restore, screen changes to "Connected to iTunes."  But when sync is over, I am still stuck on "Connect to iTunes" with no way to proceed.  I have tried different USB ports.  All updates are current. How do I get past this screen?

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

    Then try restoring on another computer.
    Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Hi all not sure where original request went but as a new apple user I have external hard drives that are now "read only" and I can't change or save documents.  Went to Get Info and this did not help.  Can anyone assist with solution, thanks.

    I am a new user to apple and have external hard drives from previous computers.  I have many documents I can no longer access and change as they say the drives are read only.  How do I change the read only to read and write etc for these external drives.  I tried Get Info but this did not assist.  Thanks.

  • TS3992 Since updating to iOS 6, my iPad has not been able to back up to cloud.  I have more than enough storage,have deleted apps, tried manual back-ups, but back-up will not complete.  I keep getting messages to back-up, but NOTHING has worked.  Help!

    My iPad will not back up to cloud inspite of trying everything mentioned.  I have more than enough space on device.  It was last backed-up on 12-12-12.  Have never had this problem before.  Keep getting messages that it needs backing up.  Have tried multiple manual back-ups for at least 24 hrs or more, but back-up will not complete.  Help!

    If you get the error "Backup not successful" and you've tried deleting the last backup and trying to back up manually without luck, try the following test:   Go to...
    Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap your device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options.  Turn off all apps from backup and then do a manual backup.  If that doesn't work, then this post will not help.  If the backup works, then go back to the app list and turn some on and try another backup.  If successful, keep repeating these steps.  If it fails at some point, then try to zero in on the one app that seems to make the backup fail.  (I had this problem and found one app failing, probably due to a corrupt data file.)
    This process will take time, but if a backup works with no app data being used but clearly fails with the original settings, then somewhere in the mix of apps is a "bad" one.
