What other browser can I get besides Firefox or Internet Explorer?

For the past 10 revisions/updates FireFox has gotten buggier and buggier and crashes more and more. So I am looking for an alternative browser besides the pieces of crap FireFox and Internet Explorer. Any ideas?

Hi tforsberg, obviously Firefox behaves differently on your system(s) than on mine, even though we use the same OS.
Were you able to find any crash IDs?
To track down the extra Flash DLL, could you try the following: type or paste '''about:plugins''' in the address bar and press Enter. You can use Find (Ctrl+f) and search for '''npswf''' to find the Flash plugin(s) on the page. The default location is:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
Can you track down Flash 12 to that or a different location?
Regarding session restore, you get the best results when you exit Firefox using the menu. Either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
* File menu > Exit
If you exit Firefox by closing windows individually, or by right-clicking Firefox on the task bar and choosing Close All Windows, you might not be able to recover more than 3 or 4 windows. You can increase the number of closed windows that can be restored by changing a setting:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box that appears above the list, type or paste '''sess''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) You can raise these values to store more closed window and closed tab history (which then can be restored from the History menu):
* browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo (number of closed windows remembered; default is 3)
* browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo (number of closed tabs remembered, per window; default is 10)

All suggestions for removal of avira/ask browser failed it is inbedded firefox and internet explorer what now

every time I try to open Firefox or Internet Explorer avira powered by ask opens over riding defaults

Hi,
You can try updating Firefox and check: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-version Updating Howto]
If the problem persists you can then reset Firefox and start afresh.
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

I am connected to internet but I can't get on mozilla or internet explorer- mozilla just keeps going connecting

all of a sudden I can not connect to mozilla or internet explorer. Mozilla just keeps saying connecting and goes nowhere. This started today. Yesterday it was working fine. I am connected to the internet. Nothing changed in the plug ins to the computer. The search engines just stopped working.I have no idea what to do. The rest of the stuff on my computer is working. I use Mozilla a lot and really need to get it working again. I have tried rebooting computer. I have hooked up and unhooked my modem. I phoned my internet company and as I say the internet is running.

Have you read for possible solutions over in the "More Like This" thread over here?----------------------->
Please detail ALL you have done so far in the way of troubleshooting? Need this info to avoid the been there done that scenarios.

Best browser to develop for ApEx, Firefox or Internet Explorer

Greetings!
I have a simple question, which is the best web browser for doing Oracle ApEx (Applications Express)? I already know the answer, Firefox, but Firefox is blacklisted by my current employer.
My primary reason for asking such a question is to help me make a case to my company internet security officers to allow Firefox to be installed on the work stations of the ApEx developers. Currently, we are restricted to using Internet Explorer (IE 6.x) only.
The security of Firefox has been sited for not allowing it's installation or use on any computers on our corporate network. There are some who believe that IE 6.x is more secure that Firefox 3.x.
My expertise as a seasoned ApEx developer who has used both and has become a better and more efficient developer since using Firefox along with the Firebug plug-in. Firefox and Firebug allow a JavaScript debugging that is far superior to JavaScript debugging utility that is available for IE 6.x.
Please make any suggestions that may help me to present a compelling argument for allowing Firefox to be allowed on the systems of the ApEx development team members.
Thanks,
Charles

Hello Charles,
Seems you have all the right information and arguments at hand:
My expertise as a seasoned ApEx developer who has used both and has become a better and more efficient developer since using Firefox along with the Firebug plug-in. Firefox and Firebug allow a JavaScript debugging that is far superior to JavaScript debugging utility that is available for IE 6.x.
There are some who believe that IE 6.x is more secure that Firefox 3.x..
Ask these people to support their believe by evidence.

Why can't I download Firefox on Internet Explorer? I tried everything but it won't download. Thanks.

I went the homepage. It says "Thanks for downloading", but nothing is downloaded. Did Internet Explorer prevent this?

It's hard to say. Could you try one of the "full" installers on this page to see whether it works better (scroll down to your preferred language):

MOUSE_DOWN & MOUSE_UP events behaving strangely in firefox and internet explorer w/low framerate

Basically what I'm seeing is that in Firefox and Internet Explorer only, using the latest flash plugins for each, when the framerate in my game drops due to a large number of display objects on screen (not unexpected behavior), MOUSE_DOWN and MOUSE_UP events seem to get queued up (this probably happens whether the framerate is low or not, but it doesn't have any adverse effects when the framerate is high). Flash will try to process every click that occurs, even though it can take up to several seconds. So, for example, if the user clicks the mouse 20 times in a second, but the framerate is running at around 5 fps, the game will be reacting to those clicks for around 3-5 seconds. It doesn't ignore any of them. This causes some strage behavior in our game and is not desirable. In the standalone flash player, and in Chrome browser, a large number of clicks in a short time frame does not have the same behavior. It seems to treat the most recent click with some priority, so it will cancel out a previous click. A single click in our game will cause an object to generate a path and move to the point on screen which was clicked (think point-and-click to move a walking 2D character).
Since this behavior is so different in 2 browsers, could have something to do with how it's embedded, like the wmode parameter? That seems to be the only idea that comes up searching on Google. Is there some way in my code that I can forcibly make a new mouse_down get processed right away instead of waiting for previous events to complete?

Ya, the problem isn't that events are coming in out of order, but rather they are somehow getting triggered at an unacceptably slow rate. It's not that the events are complicated. They merely set a boolean _isMouseDown to true and false (for MOUSE_DOWN, MOUSE_UP, respectively). But if I rapidly click, and then let go of the mouse, I'll see that boolean get set true,false,true,false,etc for a few seconds after I let go of the mouse. Why does this delay exist in Firefox and IE but not Chrome or the standalone player? It's almost as if Chrome and the standalone player let events be in their own thread while IE and Firefox, the events get held up, maybe because there is only one thread to use?

I can no longer send or respond to email from my Firefox browser. I closed and sent from Internet explorer and it works fine. What changed? The only thing different this morning, I downloaded Adobe uprade?

I had this hotmail issue myself a while back. I Googled, scanned MS website, scanned MSN website, visited forums, couldn't figure it out. I tried Firefox and Opera and even changed the Opera mask setting from Opera to Internet Explorer. Nothing worked. My best guess was that I was signing on (with the new MSN Live as opposed to MSN Hotmail - the OLD interface) with the "Remember me on this computer?" box checked. I now make sure it is un-checked (which is not the default) and hotmail lets me in.
Not exactly sure if that is the real remedy, but thot I'd throw the story your way just in case...

I need a older browser 3.5 for a FAFSA.ed.gov form online that is the required browser, can i get that?

I need a older browser 3.5 for a FAFSA.ed.gov form online, that is the required browser, can i get that? I cant get past the sign in page due to not having the older browser, can I get the older browser?

You could consider Firefox portable, to use solely for the FAFSA site. Firefox portable will I understand run Firefox 3.6.22, which is the latest and supported Firefox 3.6 version. See http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable
If you want just the one browser then Firefox 3.6 is available from : http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
(IIRC others have said Firefox 3.6 is compatible with FAFSA, firefox 3.6 is still supported, Firefox 3.5 is not. If you opted for Firefox 3.5 you would run increased security risks, so use of Firefox 3.5 is no longer recommended)

If you have access to an Apple Store, the Genius Bar should be able to manually install a version that works with your Operating System.
Be sure to make an appointment though.
AppleCare should be able to help you as well.

Virtually any DVD burner that can connect to your Mac will work. They start at $40 on Amazon.

Every time I update Firefox I can't get back on the internet. I have to uninstall and go back to an old Firefox.

I have an old Firefox. Every time I update to a new version, I can't get back on the internet. It tells me it can't find the server. So I have to uninstall the updated version and go back to my old version.

HT4061 my ipad automatically shut down and now i lost al savings and in-app purchases the battery was on 50% what happened and can i get my purchases back

my ipad automatically shut down and now i lost al savings and in-app purchases the battery was on 50% what happened and can i get my purchases back

Hi there,
This seems very frustrating. An iPad can shut down randomally for many reasons, just like a computer can crash. If it begins to happen regularly, then do contact Apple, but there are no signs that your iPad is malfunctioning from just one shut down like this.
But, you should be able to get all your in-app purchases back. In some apps, there is a 'restore purchases' button, which will download all the purchases you made for free.
In some cases, you can tap to make the purchase again, and it will be downloaded at no charge, however this does not happen with consumable items such as coins and credits.
I reccomend contacting iTunes Store Support at the link below, they will take a closer look at your purchases and give you further steps on redeeming them. They may also refund you if they have been lost.
iTunes Store Support
You can also contact the developer of the app, and report the crash and missing purchases. If you tell me the app, I'll give you the relevent contact in the developers.
Other than that, sorry for the problems, and have a great day,
Nathan

I made a project with multiple tracks and had it all panned and mixed. Now it's only playing in the right speaker. Not even regestering a left side in the master volume? What happened, how can I get both sides back?

Thank you for that info.
For video, the codec is MPEG-4 Video (XVID) and for audio it says MPEG Audio Layer 1/2/3 (mpga).
There are two issues with that file:
The first is the Xvid CODEC (not meant for editing), and then the MPEG Audio/MPGA. I would convert that file, to something that is more editable.
Good luck,
Hunt
