What do I need to do to get pronunciation via Firefox? I could not download Apple's Quick Time; I don't want any Apple products..

I have FF, Win 7 Ultra, 32-bit, HP a465c. I bookmarked a pronouncing dictionary that won't pronounce! Yikes! When I try to get an unusual word pronounced, I am prompted to download Apple's plug-in. I have no Apple products and don't want any. When I try to download Quick Time, it always fails. Then I'm prompted to manually install it. I don't know how to do this. What does FF have that will pronounce desired words readily? Methinks that that would be a commonplace, built-in FF feature.
Danke.

I was using Merriam-Webster's Pronouncing Unabridged Dictionary, which has a built-in pronouncing function. I just tried it now, only to find that I NOW would have to PAY to gain full access to the site! I can't afford that, so I shall remove the dictionary forthwith.
That said, does FF have a built-in pronouncing function, with or without definition? If not, how do I get this on my computer?
Danke.

    thanks for your suggestion.  that is the same advice that i got from the geek squad at the local apple store.
    i did what he instructed but it did not work.  i have since called apple support twice regarding the problem.  they had me start the computer in safe mode, going into the library and deleting a phlist file (i think) do a repair disk permissions, do a repair disk, empty the cache, and finally the last guy told me to unplug the computer from the wall socket and restart.
    when i mentioned the advice you and the apple store guy gave me they sort of poo pooed it saying that was done when they did all this other stuff.
    i am now waiting for the download to be completed to see if unplugging the computer had any effect.
    thanks again for your kindness in answering my concern.

  • Firefox 8.0.1-4.dmg - downloads - could not be opened. Quick Time Layer cannot open files in the "Disk Image" Format - What do I need to do?

    I get the above message when I try to download Firefox updates.

    That is a disk image file and you can't open that in an application.
    <br />
    Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.<br />
    Open the Firefox disk image (DMG) file with a double-click if necessary and drag the Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.<br />
    You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.

  • I download itunes64 but when it is validating the installation, I get the message that "itunes64msi could not be found" and nothing I have done, nor looked in has resolved this problem. Could you help me please????

    http://C:\Users\Ashley\AppData\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update\
    'C:\Users\Ashley\AppData\Local\Apple\Apple Software Update\i Tunes64.msi' cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package "iTunes64.msi" in a folder from which you can install the product iTunes.   I cannot find my old copy of iTunes on my computer now. The only thing in the iTunes folder is the written rules.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • HT1212 when i do updating ipod software....after 30 mins or few mins it get disconnected again... could not update after so many time tried...

    my ipod is being disabled because of wrong passcode input..and i have been trying to restore my device but taking me forever...on the half way of updating it suddently get disconnected... killing me with this software updating..

    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
    - Next try the manual install method of:
    iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
    Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
    - Then try on another computer

  • Getting error The user could not be registered at this time due to an internal error in R11

    We created new Organization (that had alpha numeric value e.g.  7777A) using Customer Online to be used in iStore i11 version. 
    The user account and password was also created for the organization.  When we tried to login to istore the first time the registration screen (jtftmplh.jsp) was displayed.  After filling the needed information and submitting we get the error:
    "The user could not be registered at this time due to an internal error Please contact the system administrator if this problem persists.
    Note to System Administrators: View source for more information about this error."
    But if we created new Organization with numbers only  e.g. 7777  we don't have the issue. Yet we already have large number of organization with alpha numeric and they work fine. (believe they were pragmatically loaded).
    The profiles "HZ: Generate Party Number" and "HZ: Generate Party Site Number" are set to Yes.

  • I have chg my apple I'd, but it hasn't chg when I try to update my apps, what do I need to do to get it chg on the pop up screen that ask for your password?

    I have changed my ID, but when I go to update my apps my old ID is still there, I have verified my new ID and signed in using it but still showing on app update sign in which is stopping me from getting update, what do I need to do to get it to change?

    Did you create a new account or did you update your existing account ? If you updated your existing account then logging out and back in on the iPad usually 'refreshes' the account on it. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

  • HT5271 I just updated OSX 10.7.4 and now Safari won't load - what do I need to do to get Safari working again?

    I just updated my operating system to OSX 10.7.4.  Now Safari won't load.
    I ran disc utilities and it still wont load.  It tells me that Safari quit unexpectedly and gives me the option to submit a report of to re-open.
    I have tried to find an updated Safari online but only find 5.1.7 updates for Windows.
    What do I need to do to get Safari back?

    Updating to Safari 6 for Lion may help.
    Click here >  Safari Quits Every Time Opened: Apple Support Communities
    Then click the link posted by:  gregoryfromcork
    That will automatically download this file >  Safari6Lion.pkg.download
    Now quit Safari.
    Go to your Downloads folder and double click that file and follow the instructions for installing.
    Then restart your Mac, try Safari.
    There are no Safari 5.1.7 for Mac standalone downloads available 

  • Hi... I've had my IPhone 4S since January 13, and it doesn't have the option to use it as a wifi hotspot? When all my friends iphones do. Is there a way to install in onto my phone? Or what do I need to do to get it??

    Whether you can use your phone in this way is entirely the responsibility of your phone company/carrier.  You need to contact them to see if you can add tethering to your phone plan.  Be warned though that it could get rather expensive, so if you don't really need it, then do without, but in any instance, you need to contact your phone carrier.

    Hi RadarCat16,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I know it can be frustrating when you are waiting for content to download to your iPhone from the iTunes Store. There are a few steps I would recommend in this situation. Please read over and follow the steps in the attached article.
    iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1725
    If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
    For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password if prompted.
    Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
    If you can't complete the download on your iOS device, you can download it in iTunes on your Mac or PC and then sync it to your iOS device. You can also transfer purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • What do you need to do to get your pictures back after you just restored your phone? it says "downloading" but wont give me any of my pictures back that i took awhile ago

    what do you need to do to get your pictures that you took awhile ago back on your iphone 4s after you just restored your phone it? it says "downloading" but wont give me any of my pictures back that i took awhile ago. I backed everythign up at the apple store while the person who helped me watched me do it. i have 1,796 pictures i took before i restored my phone, but it wont let me see them. it just says "downoading" and i will be devestated if all of my pictures are gone. please help me!

    You would have received a prompt telling you that you didn't have sufficient space to beck up your phone if that was the case.  Also, not everything on your phone is stored in the backup so you wouldn't need 11.7GB to back it up.  You can see the size of your backup by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your phone under Backups and look under Options.
    If it says "downloading" it's probably still downloading your pictures from iCoud.  Check Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup at the bottom to see the status of the restore process.
