Web Browser Trouble

I just installed Arch with little problems but I notice webpages in web browsers are loading extremely slowly. Any ideas to the cause of this?

Why thank you very much. I just have one last question. Is this related to the default DNS server my ISP uses or is it a default server that comes set in Arch?
EDIT: I ask this because on other distros web pages load at normal speeds, but after installing Arch they were reduced to a crawl.
Have a look at the Arch Linux beginner's guide: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beg … ure_System
Your /etc/hosts and /etc/resolv.conf should be setup exactly correct, or you will experience slow performance. Arch will not setup anything by itself, that is left up to the user.
The DNS info I gave you is for opendns.com. Keep in mind that if you are using a router with static IP, you may want to specify your DNS in the router itself and merely point to it from resolv.conf

  • I am trying to get my application (e-qip )"We did not detect that your web browser supports 128-bit high encryption.Have trouble "Continue" button below, you will need to upgrade your web browser to a version that supports 128-bit encryption"

    I am trying to complete my TSA job application and it is a requirement to complete e-qip questions?

    That website is using an old method of checking the encryption level a web browser is capable of, it mentions Netscape 6.x/7 which are like from 6 to 7 years ago. It looks like they're checking for a '''U''' in the User Agent string. That particular letter in the UA goes back to the days of export controls for encryption software, but those controls expired over 15 years ago. That letter has been virtually meaningless since then. <br />
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent
    You can fool that website into thinking that you are using an older version of Firefox with this extension. <br />
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/ <br />
    Use this for a custom UA string that should work there:<br /> '''Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.18) Gecko/20110614 Firefox/3.6.18'''
    Or just use IE for that one website.

  • Trouble Loading a flat file into BPS using a Web Browser, Please help ?

    Hi Gurus,
    I'm in BW 3.5.
    I did everything and also followed the How to .. paper to upload a flat file into BPS tran cube via a Web browser.
    I created a Web Browser and generated a BSP application. When I run the BSP application I get the following error:
    "The generated data is not contained in the selection condition" UPC204
    The error message also says:
    "The error message can appear when you use a planning function to generate data that is outside the data range specified by the selection conditions of the planning package"
    When I save the variables that I select in the web interface they are getting saved in a table(UPC_VAR_CHA_ACT), but somehow the BSP application cannot look into those values, which I think is the cause of above issue.
    Please help.
    Venkat

    Hi,
    This type of error is quite common in BPS operations. This generally happens due to some missing values in the restriction of the planning levels and the packages.
    The error message is "The generated data is not contained in the selection condition" UPC204
    Check in the planning level and the package, all the restrictions that have been defined and verify whether the values which are getting uploaded through the flat file are present in the election condition of the level or in the package.
    Please award points if helpful.

  • How do I get the Adobe toolbar to display above a pdf in the web browser?

    Hi guys,
    I'm just having trouble with locating the grey toolbar, it's not displaying when I open a .pdf in a web browser.
    I can open the .pdf fine, (within Safari), and usually (on my old computer) there was a grey toolbar above the .pdf & there's a print icon on it - that's what I'm looking for, so that I can print my lecture notes straight away.
    The toolbar won't display on the web browser above the .pdf, but if I save the .pdf & open it with Adobe Reader, then the toolbar displays there with all of the icons etc.
    So I was wanting to know if instead of saving them every time, if there's an option to get the toolbar displaying above .pdfs in Safari?
    Has anyone else encountered this problem?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Unfortunately, iOS does not provide a way to install "plugins" to Safari so there is no possible way the Reader can do this. You can use the "open in" functionality to launch Reader from Safari.

  • PDF will not save via Save Icon on Web Browser (All), but will save using Print option. How can I resolve this issue?

    Good morning all!
         I am trying to publish a fillable form to a website for users to fill out. The trouble is that I myself can fill out the form when I click the link, and save it using the disc icon. However when I have other users click it, they can fill out the form on the PDF in the internet browser, but cannot save it using the disc icon that pops up on the bottom right hand corner. I discovered that if I Save As Adobe PDF, it will save my information. When I try using the disc icon to save a physical copy, the information is completely missing from the field in the PDF, as if I never filled it out before.
    Since other users of all walks are going to be using it, I can't exactly give explicit instructions on how to use the work around for this, since it's intuitive to click the disc icon. Can anyone offer help regarding this issue?
    Some other pieces of information:
    I am using the Save as Other -> Reader Extended PDF -> Enable More Tools (Includes form fill-in and save), yet users cannot save the information typed in on the web browser PDF form.
    Thank you for your time and help.

    https://gsbs.uth.edu/dotAsset/93e2c3b0-ca8d-4335-b053-c608eb79def0.pdf
    Thanks for your reply.
    We're using Adobe Acrobat XI Pro 11.0.10 (Latest update)
    This looks to be the only PDF with the issue on fillable forms, but we have not yet posted any others with this issue.
    From that link, you can fill out the form, but when you click the pop up Disc icon on the bottom right, it does not save your typed in information. This happens on Firefox, Chrome, and IE. However when you click the print icon and Print as PDF, it saves the information you typed in.
    Thank you for your help.

  • No Optimized web browser support on basic phones after 8/30/13?

    Over the weekend I received a very disturbing message on my web browser. of my Samsung Gusto 2. It said that there would be no Optimized  web browser support on basic phones after 8/30/13 and that if I wanted a good web browsing experience that I would have to upgrade to a smartphone. I am on the $50 unilmited talk,text,and web prepay plan  but don'\t want to get stuck paying for a web browser I can't use after that date.A smartphone monthly plan would cost $10-20 more monthly,in addition to spending considerably more to buy a smartphone. I already have a tablet and was told a smartphone was unnecessary. Anybody else get this message?One person in customer service said that it was propaganda and not to believe it. Another person that I called later found the memo but had no further information on it at this time. Aparently Verizon likes to keep their customer service associates in the dark until last minute.No idea if they will alter their price plans in light of this development. I currently have AT&T U-Verse and will move my number to them and switch providers if forced to.They are willing to offer the same plan I currently have with Verizon but will have to buy a new  AT&T GoPhone.  Have had pretty good customer service with them up to now,but they are not open 24/7 for wireless customer service. Any comments?

    Hi Melissa
    Right now I am switching  back and forth between the Samsung Gusto 2 and the original Gusto. The reason I am doing this is because the Gusto ,even though it is an older phone, is in much better condition than the newer Gusto2. I want to use the beat-up Gusto2 for work, and  switch to the other phone when I need a more presentable phone.Also have  a Verizon Wireless CDM 7076(somewhere).
    Don't know why I am being forced to replace perfectly good phones. And yes,SydneyK, I could use my tablet for data,but it is a little cumbersome to take it out with me,but don't need it for my work . I just took it out for the first time recently to see how well it works on Wi-Fi hotspots(I don't have or want a data plan).Because I am a U-verse customer,I have access to 30,000 AT&T Wi-Fi hotspots AT NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE. I don't want to pay for something (web access)that I can't use on this phone. If Verizon can't give me cost-effective solutions,then I will be forced to transfer my number to AT&T Wireless as of August 30 for a GoPhone. AT&T wants my business and are wiling to do anything to satisfy me. Haven't had any trouble with Verizon either. Yes,  their customer service is still available 24/7 even thought you will have to wait a while sonetimes. I just hate the thought of having to go through the hassle of transferring my number to another carrier.

  • Issues showing PDF files in web-browser (Windows 7 x64, 32-bit version of AdobeReader X)

    I'm not sure if this is the right way to share my experience, but at least I know Google will discover this thread eventually and maybe someone else will find what I have been looking for the past 3 hours
    I'm deploying the 32-bit based AdobeReader X (http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4950) to Windows7 32-bit and 64-bit based machines. This is a MSI deployement done through our Active Directory. Everything goes well - no errors. Except for the x64-based machines having trouble showing PDF-files in the web-browser.
    I used Adobe Customization Wizard X to customize our MSI installation - this showed out to be the solution once again.
    Common for the installation on Windows7 32-/64-bit were that the value in the registry database for HKCR\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe (Default) was set to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe". This is valid for the 32-bit installation as Program Files is situated in C:\Program Files, but since it's a 32-bit edition of AdobeReader that I'm installing on the 64-bit based system as well, it's installed in C:\Program Files (x86) and the reference in the registry database to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" is therefore not valid - which explains why PDF files could not be displayed in the web browser. Changing the registry to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" solved it. Now this is a manual solution which might be useful on 1-2 machines but on a bigger scale it's not the right way to do it.
    I could change it with a batch/vbs script but still this is only a solution of the symptom and not a solution to the core issue. I therefore focused on Adobe Customization Wizard X again.
    The problem was easily solved. I opened the MSI file, loaded the transform file that I've made previously. Went to Registry > HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe . I then changed the (Default) value from "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" to "[INSTALLDIR]Reader\AcroRd32.exe", generated the MST file and replaced my current one for distribution. Problem solved! :-) The entry in the registry now shows : "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" and PDF files are open without any issues.
    I hope someone can save a bit of time on this one.
    Best regards!

    I was able install and view the files in adobe reader 10.1.1 and in web browser window 7 64 bit machine.  But when I go to Edit-preferences-internet and  unchecking "display PDF in Browser" , I am not able to view the pdf files in ie 9 browser.  I have used this javscript to check for pdf version.
    Immediately after installing adobe--
    when I do adobe test in ie 9---https://courses.worldcampus.psu.edu/public/diagnostics/Acrobat.html--  launches a test pdf file--Acro_Test.pdf
    After unchecking-- it stays in the  https://courses.worldcampus.psu.edu/public/diagnostics/Acrobat.html instead of showing test pdf file--Acro_Test.pdf
    Tried to go back to "display PDF in Browser"--it is showing it is checked(eventhough I did not check it)
    and in ie
    it stays in the https://courses.worldcampus.psu.edu/public/diagnostics/Acrobat.html instead of showing test pdf file--Acro_Test.pdf

  • Cannot View PDF in Web Browser error

    Using windows XP sp3 has adobe reader 9 on it...
    Installing Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro extended was trouble prone enough, but now there is more...
    When trying to open a PDF in a browser window, you get the following dialog error message (sample site:http://support.apple.com/manuals/#iphone)
    "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser.
    Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again."
    For the cost of this program, I expected better. The above was not a problem before installing Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro extended.
    Please advise.
    Thanks
    bob

    I did a google search and found a fix that was a bunch of registry entries that worked for me:

  • I am unable to upload files via web browser

    Good morning
    I have just upgraded to Mavericks (10.9.5), and I am running into a weird issue. I am unable to upload any files via the web browser. If I go to a website, and select an Upload File option, I am taken to Finder, where I am able to select the file, and press attach. The issue comes when I press upload on the website. It always either times out, or gives me an error that I was disconnected from the server. This happens on Safari, Firefox, and Chrome. I'm not sure what to do... I've repaired disk permissions and tried a lot of different security settings, but I am stumped.
    Thank you

  • Please install a web browser error when generating htm documents

    Hello,
    I have looked through the forums and did find some ideas to try to fix this issue but none have worked so far. One idea was to go into the Windows folder options and make sure that htm and html files are assoiciated with Internet Explorer. I looked into this and IE was already set as the default application to open htm/html files. Just for grins I looked in the control panel's program access and defaults and confirmed the primary web browser was also set to IE.
    A bit of background...
    Windows XP pro machine, with RH 8. Also, using IE 8 with the lastest updates applied. Also, I can generate other smaller RH projects from this PC and other PCs can generate the project I'm having trouble with. So I am fairly certain the problem is not the PC or the project in question. A Windows problem maybe??
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks,

    Hello again
    Odd that it failed to work for you. Seems it's worked for all others in the past but there's always a time when a magick cure won't, eh?
    What you posted gives me pause to wonder if you understood what I suggested. You seem to have simply performed a test using a notepad document. What I suggested was to re-associate .HTM files so that when you double-clicked them to open, Notepad opened instead of the browser.
    One thing I neglected to mention was that you should probably close RoboHelp before doing the unassociate/reassociate hokey pokey. RoboHelp has places in the registry too.
    Cheers... Rick

  • I have Firefox as my default browser. My anti virus says the web browser is out of date and I can't update Firefox as there are no update available. What is the solution?

    I recently had a Dell Tech Specialist work on my computer. I apparently was having trouble with my current browser at the time, which was IE-7. The tech uninstalled it and downloaded Firefox. Computer works great but I cannot update the web browser as there are no updates available on Firefox. I have Norton as the antivirus program. Any suggestions on how to remedy this? I have windows XP

    You are using Firefox 3.6.3 which is an old version, the current version is 3.6.13.
    To update it either use the "Check for updates" option in the Help menu, or download and install the latest version from http://www.mozilla.com/

  • Phones constantly turn off in the middle of phone calls, texting or web browsing; help!

    My daughter and I both have BlackBerry Curves that are approxiamately 2 years old.  They are constantly shutting down during phone calls and web browsing even though the battery shows a full charge. When they finally finish rebooting the battery indicators show that they are completely drained and need to be recharged.  The screens freeze regularly and the little clock icon keeps spinning whenever we try to do the most basic functions.  I can't wait to upgrade to different phone but can't afford to buy four of them at once.  What can we do to get by until we upgrade?

        Wow Scotty1964. It's certainly strange that both phones are doing the same thing! Do you both share the same chargers? It may be as simple as the charger needing to be replaced if the phone is not getting the best charge to begin with. It's also possible that both devices downloaded something in common to cause the quirky behavior. Did this start after an update was installed on the phone? Or maybe an application was updated or installed? If just removing an application doesn't help, you may find a Master Reset http://bit.ly/zK7LOX may be the best way to purge the phone of the pesky trouble and have working devices in your hand until you're ready for those upgrades.
    And I know money is tight, especially when you're looking to upgrade so many devices at once. When you have a chance, visit http://bit.ly/zpAY1E to check out all the online specials for phones. An upgrade may be more affordable than you think.
