When Firefox shows me an update and asks if I'd like to update, I click continue, but it doesn't update. It just goes to a "software update" window and says "connecting to the update server..." and then doesn't do anything else. It never updates. HELP!
When I sign on to Firefox, a "Software Update" pops up and asks if I'd like to update Firefox. I click Yes/Continue and when I do, the page says "Downloading Firefox" - connecting to the update server... - but it never finishes. It continually shows the blue/white striped line.
Start at '''http://www.mozilla.com''' and download the latest
version. At the completion of the download '''don't let the setup
start Firefox for you''', when the setup ends, start Firefox in your
normal manner this way you will be less likely to create a new profile.
The extra startup pages are temporary -- read them. The next time
Firefox comes up you should be back to starting with your normal home page.
Note: Firefox must be down once the install starts.
:Close Firefox with File>Exit. Then make sure Firefox is not running --
:On Windows: check the "Processes" tab in the Windows Task Manager.
:On Mac: Firefox > Quit then Command+option+Esc, if Firefox running use Force quit
'''Permission errors on Mac:'''
"If you were getting permission errors on a Mac, download the latest
Firefox version, then uninstall and reinstall Firefox. '''Do not let the uninstall remove remove anything but Firefox itself'''; otherwise, you will lose your profile directories and files as they contain your settings,
bookmarks, history, extensions, passwords, and cookies.
If you can't download as mentioned above, find your system and the Firefox version you want in releases, download and start the install as seen above

I downloaded ios7 after being asked to restore. But now my phone wont connect to the activation server and is asking to restore again but I cant because itunes does not show any of my phone information (it just shows a blank white screen with "iphone" in the centre".
I imagine a ton of people are attempting to activate after the update, and the server is getting overloaded. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

Hi there I am having trouble with my outlook express this is the first time it has happened it keeps telling me can't connect to the SMTP server and every password I have tried is incorrect this is for 'iCloud' very frustrating as all our phones are ok
Well I am feeling a bit silly now because that was all I had to do. In the past Workgroup Manager had always opened right up to the list of my users, I never even thought to click on that but apparently that was all that was needed.
I still am not sure how the iChat Server preferences changed themselves on me, but it is not the first time I have had weird "settings" issues with our Snow Leopard Server.
Thanks! -
ever since I updated my iPod software my iPod will not connect to the app store and won't let me download anything. help
Hook it up to your computer and open itunes. try to download hte apps via your computer. Every time you update hte software you have to reagree to the itunes terms of service. Sometimes it's hard to get it to come up on the device, but is easier on a computer.

When I select the Recovery drive it tries and then I can't get further than a white screen. My curser so has 2 columns of marks like a horizontal barcode. I think it's a software problem. When I boot up in safe boot, I have run the disc utility and it says the disc is fine and I have run the repair permissions but it makes no difference.
Thanks AAndy but I had read all of that and tried everything but I have no disks as I upgraded from Snow Leopard over the internet. I have my Snow Leapard box but the disk is missing so I can't use that and anyway, I can only boot up in safe boot so it wouldn't recognise the superdrive. I had a copy of the recovery on a flash but it doesn't recognise that. I have redownloaded it but cannot get it onto an external because of safe boot. I have done the following
Reset the PRam, reset the desktop.
Tried the D key - no responce
Tried opt D and Command D - no responce
Comant R, jusr R and opt R - no responce
By no responce, I mean that the wheel goes round under the apple and then it goes white - and stays like that.
The only thing that I can do, is to boot up on the option key when it give me a choice of drive. If I select Recover, wheel turns under apple - white wcreen
If I boot up on the shift key, it boots into safe mode and there it stays, quite happy surfing the internet and playing stupid Facebook games, so long as I don't want to use any search engines (none of which work (not finder, not mail, not anything) and then after a few hours of forgotton pleasure, it crashes!
The only thing I can think of to do is to redownload Lion - it appears in my purchased account in the App Store but, Sod's law, our satellite internet is not working and I don't think my phone account has enough MBs - anyone know how many Lion is?
I can't backup because I can't use an external drive and old one stopped working a few months ago, so I haven't been backing up and as this is the first problem I have ever had with my iMac in 7 years, I had got a bit comlascent! However, I am pretty certain that I can re-install Lion without wiping my hard drive - I have done it years ago with an older system and an older Mac.
Do you think that downloading Lion again and re-installing it will help? Does anyone else have any suggestions?
Thanks for responding so far. -
As stated, I can get all the way to being able to join a channel, but I don't any 'chatting' going on. I can see the user list, I can see the MOTD, I can do a listing, but no incoming traffic from the channel. I installed mIRC just to see, but same thing. I am thinking that there is some generic setting common to both clients that I am missing somehow, but I really don't know.
Is this a common error that I might be making? Is it a connectivity issue, or similar?
There is not a lot of info regarding this specific problem that I can find.
What do you guys think?I will be around there later today (it is 4:45 am here). Thanks for the answer re: /attach, and your replies. I am already learning shortcuts to stuff I don't know yet!
We will see how it flies...wish me luck. -
I have an iMac OS 10.4. I downloaded Firefox a while ago and I had no real problems with it. Then I got this message that I should update Firefox to 3.6.16. So I hit the "Download" button and I get the "Software Update" which says "Downloading the update" with a progress bar and below it , it says "Connecting to the download server". But it gets stuck there. The progress bar has gone to the end of bar. How can I get hooked up to the Update server?
That is because that Firefox 3.6.x version has been released later than the Firefox 4 version.
If you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 4.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

2. How the connection between mobile server and proxy server

Kindly, help me out.
Thanks and Regards,
Yuvaraj.Hello,
I have a similar scenario to that you have described, in order to test;

I have installed the client s/w to the simulator device, but am unable to connect to BOE from the device.
Below is the info from each of the config files and device.
Can you tell me if there is a needed change?

Connection from the web server to the database which is situated in another machine.
Thanks for the reply.
I need to know, whether there shold be a physical connection between the web server and database machine? or can we connect to the database machine through the web, if the database machine has a domain name? if there is a physical connection, we can use the jdbc/odbc connection. but if we are connecting through the web, how can I estblish the connection using a JDBC/ ODBC connection?
Regards,
GeorgeAs long as there's a network connection between the two machines, you should be able to make the connection. I'm not sure what the difference between a 'direct connection' and a 'connection through the web' is-- are you actually running a network cable from one machine to another?
When you cannot make the connection, are you able to do a 'tnsping' on the target database?
When you say 'connecting through the web', is it possible that you're going through a firewall? If so, the firewall may be blocking the ports you need to communicate on.

Unable to connect to the report server 9iAS
I have a similar problem to the FRM-41213 when trying to initiate a Report_Job_Id := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(Report_Id, pl_id) through a form.
I have tested everything on my LOCAL 9iDS environment which goes through a LOCAL report server (rwserver -install myserver) and it works.
Now, I am trying to deploy it to the 9iAS server on a Windows 2000 server. When I call my form everything appears to be working fine, however, I never get a connection to the report server and the applet hangs.
Any one have any idea what I should check to insure that I have my 9iAS server setup to run Reports though 9iAS or what this problem might be?
Thanks
HymanCheck if the reports server on 9ias is up and running. You might check out metalink note 212551.1 if it is not. The "Second Solution for Issue 1" solved the problem for me.
Begin quotation:
"This can be accomplished by removing the <security> tagging from the <repserver>.conf file, where <repserver> represents the reports server name. This file is found in the Developer ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf directory."
End quotation.
Hope this helps

Connection to the outgoing server failed
My iPhone keeps saying connection to the outgoing server "smtp.mac.com" failed. I also have 2 unsent messages that have been trying to send for 2 weeks. I have 2 questions:
1) How do I get rid of the connection failure?
2) Where are the unsent messages and how do I delete them?
Thanks for any advicewhoa and behold guys, I have the same problem BUT I fixed it. I was up all night looking for answers. I wanted to reply back this morning from a guys email sent to my aol email stating to pray for a job promo. this morning newspaper he made headlines for the school district board of something I dunno..
So I wanted to reply congrats, but thats were I encountered the problem.
I figured I put in the USERNAME and PASSWORD, AGAIN in the outgoing mail server portion (smtp), which is the last portion. leave your advance settings the same as usual I think. for mines, use SSL on both incoming and outgoing, password authentication, and of course 993 port for incoming, 587 for the other..
I tested mailing from my gmail to my aol mail address, and I had my aol software open. I checked aol mail on my iphone, and while watching the aol screen the mailbox icon went away.. MAGIC!!
but thats not what you want to hear..... i replied BACK on my iphone.. and it SENT!!! i checked my gmail.. WHOA AND BEHOLD there it IS!!!! you guys will want to thank me badly LOZL -

Since upgrading iMac to osx lion I have been experiencing problems in mail, it spontaneously stops receiving and tells me it can't find the pop server and also the biggest problem is that when I send with an attachment the recipient doesn't receive it.
I have to restart mail most times before it starts recieving or recognizes the pop server.
As I said a lot of recipients do not recieve my mails when there is an attachment or when I reply to their email.Contact iTunes Customer Service and request assistance
