Why on windows 2000 xp sp2 am I getting a message that firefox is notresponding

I have another computer a Vista and when they are both running { or not} I get the firefox is not responding. It will suddenly stop for no reason some times 1 min. some times up to 5 min.

You seem to have an outdated version of Windows. Usually if computers are old, they are slow. Your computer could also not have much space left, so you could delete some useless things. Another reason could be that your computer has a virus

I keep getting a message that Firefox is open and not responding. That I have to close the Firefox application or restart my computer. A real pain. Why is the firefox application not closing.

Sounds like Firefox is "hanging at exit". That problem is frequently caused by an Extension or a Plugin. Read all of the following articles.<br /><br />
NOTE: Establish a habit of exiting/closing Firefox with Firefox button > Exit or File > Exit to allow an orderly shutdown of Firefox and closing of all of the files that Firefox has open.

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I uninstalled Norton 360 ==
== User Agent ==

I found a fix for this, not only firefox but several other networking programs were broken as well (Outlook and IE were ok for some reason) so I reasoned that the Norton uninstall was incomplete somehow - I had done it from the add/remove programs in the control panel. Sure enough that's not enough to release Norton's tentacles in your system, there's an uninstall tool on their website (a whole set of them actually) that managed to carve it out completely and after a restart everything was back to normal. My machines will definitely be Norton-free from now on ... N

Why, as of last night, do I keep getting the message that the security certificate is not valid on sites I use all the time, like my hotmail account, paypal, facebook, etc?

I even got that message when I tried to post my question! It says that Firefox cannot verify a secure connection with mozilla, or whatever website I'm trying to visit, because the security certificate is not valid. It even gives the dates that the certificate will be valid, and the date shows that it is valid. So frustrating!! I have to "override" Firefox every time.

I have the same problem but I've corrected the time on my windows clock and I still got the same problem. Do you know if there's anything else I can do?

Why doesn't Firefox stop running when I shut it off? Every time I shut it off and return later, I get a message that Firefox is running, but not responding and that I have to restart my computer to access Firefox.

When I shut down Firefox I get all the shutdown messages, so I assume it has shut down as it should. But if I go back to my PC later (within an hour or so) and click on Firefox to bring it up, I get the "runningbutnotresponding" message and the promt to restart my PC.

I am on a corp network using winproxy. The proxy is not set up to block 443, and no one else is having this issue.
Tried the terminal command
$ telnet sss-web.usps.com 443
$ telnet: trying 56.0.134.63
$ connect to address 56.0.134.63: no rout to host
$ telnet: unable to connect to remote host
So 443 is being blocked, but whats blocking it.
Went to network utiliy and it showed 3 network interfaces (en1), (fw0), and (en0) only (en0) is set up correctly. The powerbook is using internal ethernet only.

Why do I always get a message saying unresponsive script and I often get a message that Firefox is unresponsive

I get a message quite frequently, like every time I'm on the computer, that says Warning-unresponsive script and I can click continue if I want. Also Firefox is unresponsive quite often. A quick visit on the computer turns into an hour long event.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

Install Oracle 8i Personald Edition on Windows 2000 Server SP2

Hi
I have problem to install the Oracle 8i Personal Edition on
Windows 2000 Server SP2.
I run the Setup.exe, I become the message (not exactly) “JRE
(Java Runtime Environment) was not found…… please visit
www.javasoft.com….. and install JRE version 1.1.7 or higher…”
Now, I have download and install this JRE (JavaTM 2 Runtime
Environment v 1.2.2_008 / Internationalized version of Java 2
Runtime Environment).
The error-messages comes again.
Have everyone a idea?

hi phill...
why dont you try it out with the same CD and increase your RAM
by another 64MB? This will be enough. The reason is , most
Oracle 8i releases are combined with a java based Oracle
Universal Installer. This requires some good amount of RAM. Just
try it out with some extra memory. If this also didnt work, then
send in the problem,error with your system config. This will
help me in solving your problem.

Every time I go somewhere online I get a message that a huge number of errors occurred in opening the window. Why?

Every time I go to a site online I get a message that a huge number of errors occurred going to it. Why?

I can load that site no problem.
If you see Develop in the Safari menu bar (top of your screen) click Develop.
If you see any check ✔ marks, select that item one more time to deselect.
Then try that site.
If the Develop menu was not available, go to Safari > Preferences > Extensions
If there are any installed, turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
And in Safari > Preferences > Security
Make sure Enable plug-ins, and Java are enabled and deselect Bllock pop-up windows
Quit and relaunch Safari.
If installled, try temporarily disabling anti virus software.

After installing itunes 11.1.5, i get a message that says no apple support why?

AFTER INSTALLING ITUNES 11.1.5, I THEN GET A MESSAGE THAT SAYS
NO APPLE APPILACATION SUPPORT WHY ??????????????

With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR suitable for your PC (there's a 32-bit Windows version and a 64-bit Windows version):
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, see if iTunes will launch without the error now.
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Why do I get the message that my operating system is not supported?

My computer is running Windows 7 - 64-bit. I have the latest softwear on both my iPhone and my iPad. I have installed Edge Inspect on these devices and have the Google Chrome edge inspect extension installed. I have been able to enter my passcodes for both devices in the Chrome extension. Why do I get the message that my operating system is not supported just yet?

This is VERY interesting ... even though I got that strange message, once I linked my iPhone and my iPad to the Google extension, it worked! Whatever I display in Google Chrome automatically displays in the Edge Inspect app on the small devices. This is neat! The only problem that I can see is that Adobe needs to replace the error message with information about how to use the application.

When I try to export from iMovie '11 I get repeated messages that the project is too big. Why? Is there a workaround? (I have already cut a 40-minute movie into three chunks...)

When I try to export from iMovie '11 I get repeated messages that the project is too big. Why? Is there a workaround? (I have already cut a 40-minute movie into three chunks... the first exported to iDVD ok, but the next one of 15 minutes balked for the same reason -- too long...)

I wish I had a mac :-P
Sadly, this is Windows machine so I dont have a non-iOS version of iMovie. I have 2 ideas left. The first is xfering the project to my iPhone 4 and trying to export it there (if that works, awesome but geez apple the iPad 2 is way more powerful than the iphone 4.. youd think I wouldnt even have to attempt this). The 2nd idea is to start at the end of my movie and delete clips and sounds backwards, trying to export each time to find whatever clip is causing the issue (when the movie was 5 minutes it mixed no probem, so I only need to go that far).
Wish me luck?
Also, is anyone else besides me and the 5 dudes in the other threads having this issue?? Speak up, guys - Apple cant a fix a problem they dont know about.
