When I try to log in from desktop I get "Connection Refused" message. How do I fix this?

I tried to activate Mozilla Firefox today using the normal & routine method, clicking on the Firefox Icon.
Each time I tried I got the same message "Connection Refused".
I went to the Firefox site and read the message regarding disabling Java, so I opened ADD ONS and Plug Ins and disabled Java.
Still no change, so I shut down and restarted my computer.
I keep getting the same Connection Refused message.
What needs to be done to restore Firefox?

Another user also reported a problem with the AT&T Yahoo home page in the past few minutes. When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

    iMovie crashes when i try to view the project full screen and export it. How do i fix this?

    Close out of the camera app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
    Then do a reset, no data loss.  Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Then check your camera roll again.

  • When I try to open anything in Firefox I get innumerable ads. How can I prevent this.

    Even trying to get this far I have had to close down at least 20 promotional sites - I have tried deleting and reinstalling Firefox but the ads still continue. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
    * [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
    * [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
    * [http://support.kaspersky.com/viruses/disinfection/5350 Anti-Rootkit Utility - TDSSKiller]

    Hello Deb,
      Something fishy going on with those particular files. But without looking at them directly I couldn't say what. Usually in a case like this the problem is some of the metadata that is attached to the file. Where did these files come from? A camera, a scanner, the internet?
      An explanation about the Watched Folder function: It looks for changes to a folder, not just automatically grabbing whatever files are in it. Generally, you want to select an empty folder as a Watch Folder. Once this has been set up, as you add files to this folder they will be imported into the Organizer. If you start with a folder full of images, those will be ignored, any new items will be added.

  • I have an Apple ID created in India. I will be living in US now on. So when I try to buy apps from here, I get a reply saying, I need to change my store to US. So do I have to create a new ID or can I in anyway continue with this same ID ?

    I have an Apple ID created in India. I will be living in US now on. So when I try to buy apps from here, I get a reply saying, I need to change my store to US. So do I have to create a new ID or can I in anyway continue with this same ID ?

    You can use the same ID but you will need a U.S. based credit or debit card account.
    This applies to the Mac App Store as well as iTunes...
    The Complete Guide to Using the iTunes Store | iLounge Article
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

    I was going to check that site; however, since I got a red "not trustworthy" from WOT, I decided not to put my Mac at risk going to a questionable site. I'd recommend not going there; instead, do the right thing: buy the music from a reputable site.

    I'm trying to install Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 (English North Americas) and have the same problem.
    #1 the default location is in some Local / User folder and I too made it the Application folder. Now Adobe Download Manage will only download to Applications folder. The first time the installer failed I logged out, but the installer .dmb was erased. Second download I copied to the Desktop, and deledted the orgional in the Applications folder. BOTH .dmg had checksum errors. BOTH failed on install. Restart of systm changes nothing

    As someone who has used Adobe products since before Photoshop v.1 was released, this would be far from the first bad Adobe installer!

  • When I try to open a recent document I get the following message "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document."  I have downloaded version Pages version 5.2.2 and the app store confirms this, but my Pages About reports that I am using 4.3

    When I try to open a recent document I get the following message "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document."  I have downloaded version Pages version 5.2.2 and the app store confirms this (and won't let me download it again), but my Pages About reports that I am using 4.3

    Here is the solution that I received from the chat line.
    When you update applications like Pages it usually keeps both versions on the computer. So what most likely happened is it didn’t put the new version on your dock. So to fix this, open a finder window. And go into applications which should be listed on the left. Scroll down and you will see Pages listed in here. And the icon should look different. You can drag that icon down onto your dock.Open that and you then can access your documents
