Very frequently when I click on a link, this message comes up: Connection was re-set. Then I can use Try again button. Annoying and time-waster. How to resolve this once and for all? In simple English only, please - I'm not a techie. Thanks.

See question above. Think that says it.

Maybe these will help:

  • Frequently, when I click on a link, try to return to the previous screen or close a tab, an option box comes up that requires a choice rather than simply doing whatever was originally requested. How can these option boxes be prevented?

    Frequently, when I click on a link, an option box will pop up asking whether to open in a new tab or new window and several other options, rather than simply opening in the same window or tab. When I try to return to the previous screen, it often will not let me, or provides options that I do not want. When I try to close a tab, an option box comes up that has several choices that I do not want and "close tab" at the bottom of the box. How to prevent these option boxes from popping up?

    Turn of JavaScript. These are "per site" and generated by the site. They are not the normal function of the browser. This usually occurs on attack sites. I'd stay away from them.
    The only "trusted" site I ever saw do something like this is Google, which asks me if I'm sure I want to close the tab that has their search results. I really pisses me off, but I have yet to find a way to stop it.
    It is certainly bad coding behavior on the part of whomever designed the site. When a user clicks an action, it should be presumed, unless the action is potentially very destructive, that they intended to perform that action. A UI should never incessantly second guess the intentions of a user.

    ''To fix home page...''
    Type '''about:home''' into the location bar, and if that is what you want for a home page then
    # Tools ("Alt + T") > Options > General
    # When Firefox starts: Show my home Page
    # Click on "Restore to default"
    You can have any page you want for a home page, if you have another page in mind, see

  • When i click on itunes store a message comes up with itunes stopped working

    when i click on itunes store a message comes up with itunes stopped working

    Hey there Kezzleberry82,
    It sounds like you can open the iTunes application but when you click iTunes Store the application becomes unresponsive. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article to help troubleshoot the issue named:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    Start with opening iTunes in Safe Mode, and continuing from there per the instructions here:
    Start iTunes in Safe Mode
    Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any interference from plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
    Hold down Shift–Control while opening iTunes. You should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
    Click Continue.
    See if the issue you're experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
    If you have the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the "Create a new user account" section. If you don't experience the same issue, follow these steps to remove third-party plug-ins.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Often when I click on a link to open an email to go to in an article, it opens a blank FF window and not the email format it should.

    Since upgrading to FF 4.0 when I click on an email link it never opens to that link but to a blank FF window.
    Would FF 5.0 fix that or what do I do?
    I'm afraid to use 5.0 because 4.0 caused a multitude of problems for me, not all fixable.
    Please send reply to [email protected] Somehow I never can get back to it on the Support Forum.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

  • When I click on a link from Google or type in a web address directly, invariably, Firefox tries to load the webpage and seems to hang.

    However, when I click "stop" and then "reload" it almost always opens rights up to the webpage.
    If I open IE and try the same webpage at the same time, it loads right away.
    Any ideas?

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Firefox does not open Gmail to send link when I click the Send Link option on the menu. I have set Gmail as the mailto option, but did not help

    Firefox does not activate Gmail when I click send link in the menu under File or by right click menu on a webpage. I have set Gmail as the Mail to under options, but this did not help.

    I have the same problem but it appears that an add-on I'm using is causing the problem. Try opening Firefox in safe mode (which disables add-ons) Then try it. If that solves the problem, you need to disable all your add ons and enable them one by one to figure out which one(s) is causing the problem.

    Hi r.viel,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your redemption code.

    If you're still unable to redeem your code after verifying the characters in the code, you'll need to contact iTunes Store Support for help. You'll need to provide a digital image of the front and back of the gift card as well as the sales receipt for the purchase of the gift card.
    Contacting iTunes Store Support
    Go to the iTunes support page and select your iTunes country.
    From the iTunes support page, choose Contact Support on the lower-left side of the page.
    Follow the instructions to get iTunes Store support assistance.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!

  • Very recently, when I click on a link sent to me in an email, Firefox opens my homepage plus a separate page for the link. Up to 3 days ago, only one window would open specifically for the link. How can I stop this?

    I'm running a Mac with system OS 10.5.8. and the latest version of Firefox.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == One week ago

    That is a bug on Mac: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=531552 - Firefox 3.6b opens two windows when opening external links

  • Firefox is now hard to load, and no matter what I click on for a web page, or even my mail I get the connection was reset and I have to hit the try again button 5 - 6 times usually to get the page to load.

    I updated internet explorer also changing my server provider so that my web page contact emails would go thru. I have quest broadband and could not use my yahoo accounts as they are not compatible, had me open a q.com email will transfer to outlook for my web pages. That all works, but now firefox is acting up.

    Many business users chose to use the downgrade option to XP until Windows 7 had been out awhile longer ,which may be what happened on your machine. Where I work, most all of the machines still run XP.
    Recovery Disks contain the OS and all drivers/software for a specific model. A plain Windows disk contains just the OS.Not sure which you have, but a true Recovery Disk set will not work on any machine.
    It really sounds like you have a Windows Repair disk which requires a backup image to repair an installation.Could you confirm what exact disk you have?

  • HT201209 When I click the 'Redeem' link in Itunes it leads to a blank page. What can I do?

    Please reply, someone.

    Hi using iphone5,
    I checked your account; I don't see that either an ExportPDF or Adobe PDF Pack subscription. Did you get either service as an in-app purchase on Reader for iOS? If so, that subscription is handled by the Apple App Store, and Adobe wouldn't have record of it. If you did get it as an in-app purchase, you would need to contact the App Store to find out if there is an issue with your subscription.
    Best,
    Sara

  • When I click on the Mozilla Firefox icon, I cannot get to my homepage so I can use the Internet.

    I have Windows XP. When I usually click on the Mozilla Firefox icon on my desktop, my Homepage comes up with weather, news headlines, etc. Now all I get is a screen with a search box for Google! I cannot get to the Internet anymore! Help!

    When I go to Tools, Options, General, Homepage, there is nothing in the box for Homepage. So I clicked on default. Didn't work. Tried Msn.com, didn't work. There's a box that says Show Homepage also, but can't seem to make it all work. What should be in the box that's blank? How did it change on its own? HELP!

    Yes it will connect like the iPad, the point is, most iPhone supported carrier do not have phone plan without cellular data. You can choose a plan with minimal cellular data.

    Not true. If it is official unlock by the carrier the iPhone was locked to, it will not re-lock.
