When attempting to delete the complete "Browsing & Download History" Firefox stops responding.
Since I had not deleted my browsing history in a few months I attempted to do so today. Firefox stopped responding. After waiting around 10-15 minutes I ended the process and attempted to delete everything from "today" and it worked. I then, one by one, deleted everything for "all times" except "Browsing & Download History", and it all worked. Now all that is left is to delete this, but every time I try to delete it, and nothing else, Firefox stops responding.
How much history items do you have if the check that in the History Manager?
If there are too many then try to clear them month by month or in case you do not care to lose all history delete the places.sqlite file in the Firefox profile folder (Firefox will rebuild the bookmarks from the most recent JSON backup).
You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

Every time I try to download anything firefox stops responding and will not do anything until I restart it. Can I revert back to a previous version, or is there a fix for it? When I restart firefox, then the download continues and all is well until I try to download something new (which I do quite often).
You may well find this article of interest and help in sorting out your problems: [[Installing a previous version of Firefox]] The article does contain a link for previous versions, but also points out other troubleshooting advice that may be more appropriate in some instances.
Another useful article is [[Basic Troubleshooting]]
I hope you sort out your problems either by downgrading or finding the cause of the problem. -
I am trying to view my ATT wireless bill, and when I ask to view the full version it opens another window and says receiving data from ATT. This doesn't ever change and when I hit any key on any other window in firefox then I am told that firefox has stopped responding and must close.
No release of Pages v5 can open AppleWorks, Pages '05, Pages '06, Pages '08, or RTF documents. Sometimes, it cannot open its own documents.
You will need to do one of the following:
Borrow your MacBook Pro back until you can export all your incompatible documents to MS Word (Which Pages v5 can open)
Install your iWork '08 DVD on your new Air, and then immediately apply the following Apple Updaters. Again Export to MS document formats.
Pages v3.0.3
Numbers v1.0.3
Keynote v4.0.4
Purchase iWork '09 DVD, and then immediately update with Apple iWork 9.3 updater.
Open the document(s) that Pages v5 won't permit
Save as Pages '09 v4.3 documents, or export as MS Word
Upload to Zamzar, and convert to MS Word (free for limited volume)
No sensitive documents
Email notification within 3 - 4 minutes with MS Word document download link
After you do either item 2 or 3, run Disk Utility and verify/repair application permissions on your boot drive. Open your converted documents in Pages v5. -
I cannot use Process Explorer OR Windows Task Manager to devote more resources to its operation (give Firefox a higher priority than other running processes) because some rocket scientist @ Mozilla has decided that users should not be allowed access to this level of control. How do I find the physical location of this data so I can edit/delete it MYSELF (since Mozilla won't allow me to do it via the interface that's SUPPOSED to do it)? This data is not located in the same profile directory that contains the cache. The data is not ANYWHERE in C:\Users\<PROFILE_NAME>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\.
If you open the task manager before the use of Firefox, you can lower the Firefox priority. I recommend leaving it set to Normal.'
Freezing of Firefox is normal when clearing items. This freezing will be most noticeable if there are many items to clear.
If none of this helps, you can download [https://www.piriform.com/ccleaner CCleaner] for free. You can then clear the Firefox data by running the cleaning tool.
Please report back soon. -
I need to delete the entire browsing history so when i type in a webpage it soes not bring up previuosly visited sites. deleting the history does not do this. any one know how to do this

If Private Browsing doesn't do it, try Settings-Safari-Advanced-Website Data-Remove All Websitre Data.
Or changing Settings-Safari-Autofill to OFF.
You might also try Settings-Safari and Clear History and Clear Cookies and Data.
As you can see, there are several controls for Safari. Which one works depends on what your problem is.

I have bought an iMAC second hand but when updates to purchased (not by me) Apps I cannot download the updates as it is asking for the original owners password. How can I amend this or could I delete the Apps and download new ones in place under my email
If the machine was upgraded to Lion 10.7.x by the original owner then you bought an illegal license of Lion and also of any other applications that the seller said came pre-installed, this assumes the seller did not include original install media. In that case you need to contact the seller for the original install DVDs that came with the machine re-install up to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and then purchase Mountain Lion ($20) and the applications you want or need. If the seller cannot come up with the original install discs then you can buy them from a nominal cost from AppleCare..

I purchased the Bu Ray/Digital Copy of "Voyage of the Dawn Treader" today at Best Buy, but when attempt to install the digital copy, I get a message about 3 minutes into the download that says that the download has been interrupted, and to check available download in the store drop down menu in Itunes. Nothing there! The digital copy disc does not seem to play smoothly on my Imac, which may be the cause of the problem. What do I need to do to download the digital copy to my computer/Itunes?
Thank you,

I accidentally deleted the Safari browser.
I accidentally deleted the Safari browser from my computer. I reinstalled it using the startup disc but when I tried to use it, I was given a message saying Safari was too new to use with the OS (OS X 10.5.8). I need help.
Hello, here's the Safari download for 10.5.8...

I need to know how to delete the most recent version of Firefox. I JUST downloaded it tonight and my computer doesn't have that little edit bar to work with so I can download the proper Adobe player and my internet has been screwed up ever since I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I just want the old version of it back since I apparently can't download the Adobe stuff that is necessary to keep my computer safe from Hackers. It sure would have been nice to know there was an issue with the new Firefox Update BEFORE I uploaded it. I have Vista which is usually an issue with both Adobe and Firefox. I don't seem to be able to run much of Adobe at all on my computer because of the Vista.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox openedI have also noticed all my settings won't stay set, example....I removed the check mark from "third party cookies", the when I close Firefox and reopen the check mark is back, also my tool bar has screwed up....can't reset, been having trouble the up grade.

Problems converting PDF to MS Word document. I successfully converted 4 files and now subsequent files generate a "conversion failure" error when attempting to convert the file. I have a large manuscript and I separated each chapter to assist with the conversion; like I said, first 4 parts no problem, then conversion failure. I attempted to convert the entire document and same result. I specifically purchased the export to Word feature. Please assist. I initially had to export the Word Perfect document into PDF and attempting to go from PDF to MS Word.
Hi sdr2014,
I'm sorry to hear your conversion process has stalled. It sounds as though the problem isn't specific to one file, as you've been unable to convert anything since the first four chapters converted successfully.
So, let's try this:
If you're converting via the ExportPDF website, please log out, clear the browser cache, and then log back in. If you're using Reader, please choose Help > Check for Updates to make sure that you have the most current version installed.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,

HT201317 How can i delete the complete Photo Library?
How can i delete the complete Photo Library, as i can delete from the camera roll, but there dosent seem to be an obvious way to completely delete the Photo Library or items in the library either? There is no delete option like for the user generated albums...
I have tried deleting from the Camera Storage in the Settings menu, the delete appears but when pressed nothing happens.I'm sorry but the way you worded the question I thought you were referring to iPhoto's library on the computer. I don't use an iPhone or the iPhoto app, so I can't answer your question in that regard.
Since you already marked the topic as solved when it was not, I recommend you re-post your topic. Just use a different topic title such as, "Help with iPhoto app on iPhone 5." -
Getting an internal error when attempting to delete a certificate
When attempting to delete a certificate on one of our servers using the Windows Azure Managment Portal we receive an error "The server encountered an internal error. Please retry the request. The long running operation tracking ID was: 33c70589cc21ba74903d8e7bffe7868b."
We have been able to delete this certificate on other servers and have been able to delete other certificates on this server. Is there anything we can do to get rid of this certificate?hi,
>>We have been able to delete this certificate on other servers and have been able to delete other certificates on this server
What service certificate you attempted to delete? Cloud service or VM ? Did your delete the certificate by connecting RDP to VM before delete certificate on Azure portal? I need confirm those information.
Regards,
Will

Hi Will,
Thanks for looking at this, to answer your question it's a Cloud Service certificate, and we only attempted to delete the certificate in the portal. Is there any other info we
can give you?
Thanks,

These resets appear to coincide with a clearing of the cached queries for the DSN from memory, breaking all my sub queries that try to use the initial cached one. I am grasping at straws to discover the reset culprit, the DSN tests always show OK, there is not packet loss at the switch level. If anyone has some suggestions, I am all ears!
The resets are completely random and under no load. My sql 2008 r2 box is set to unlimited connections.
An example of a DSN setup is :
Maintain Connections [x]
String Format [ ]
Max Pooled Statements 100
Timeout 20 Interval 7
Query Timeout 0
Login Timeout 30
CLOB [ ]
BLOB [ ]
Long Text Buffer 64000
Blob Buffer 64000
Validate Connection [ ]
I am running the following :
CF Enterprise 10,0,13,287689
Tomcat 7.0.23.0
Ubuntu 1204 x64
Java VM 20.4-b02
Java 1.6 (Sun Microsystems Inc)
I have seen it suggested to uncheck the maintain connections advanced options but this doesn't seem like a good approach to the problem and will cause more stress on the sql box IMHO.
I have also seen it suggested to enable Validate Connection but documentation on this is a bit sparse...
Here are more examples of the initial reset error and then the subsequent cache related errors :
Database Error Information:
Native Error Code: 0
SQL State: 08S01
Query Error: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]A problem occurred when attempting to contact the server (Server returned: Connection reset). Please ensure that the server parameters passed to the driver are correct and that the server is running. Also ensure that the maximum number of connections have not been exceeded for this server.
Custom Error Code: 08S01
Database Error Information:

SQL State: n/a
Query Error:
