Why won't my proxy server download Firefox 4?

My P C operates on Windows XP. When attempting to download Firefox 4, a message appears stating that my proxy server will not download

I have a similar problem. After installed FF 4 it would not talk to the internet because 'my proxy server refused'. I can fix this by going to options/advanced/setting ... but the fix only lasts for the current session of FF. If exit and restart FF, I get the proxy problem again ... the fix has to be repeated.
Similarly, the install reset my home page. I can easily fix this, but exiting and restarting FF resets the homepage again.
How do I make these fixes 'sticky'?

    Why won't the bought and downloaded films play?

    It won't let me download iOS 7.  When I check for software updates it says that it is up to date.  I also went to iTunes to delete the songs from the iPod, but now it isn't even recognizing any devices.  I even uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it to my computer.  LOL  I am sure it is something small, but I don't have the patience for it now.  Maybe I should step away from the computer and come back in a little bit...    Thank you for the advice though!  Keep it coming!  I know it is hard to diagnose over the internet, but any ideas help!

    Why won't my ipad 1 download an entire purchased tv episode?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

    Are you using the same apple ID and password?
    it seems all is in order, but perhaps the password isn't valid.
    if the reset didn't work, try signing out of iTunes and App Store, then back in.
    have you tried going to App Store - purchased and tapping on the cloud icon for the apps you want?   You will still be asked for your password.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have JRE 6.0u18 installed, and pointed the install to use that directory for the JRE home.
    Many thanks, Mark
    P.S. the proxy server service starts fine, it's just the admin service that won't start....

  • Why doesn't Web Proxy Server use default route?

    After downloading Sun Java Web Proxy Server, I notice that the path to retrieve URLs from the internet does not go out the default route.
    However my pings, traceroutes, telnets, etc. to the same URLs do go out to the default route correctly.
    I have tried with both SP5 and SP6.
    Thanks

    I went to about:cache. It says 0 Kib offline cache.
    I went to the two links, but I can't understand what to do. I know I have to allow some storage in order for the Flash based cams to run. I have the one I use the most set to allow 100 KB but is says there is 0 being used.
    I'm attaching a few screen captures. There are many sites listed below where the last one is cut off. I don't even know what some of them are. I don't understand what to do. Sorry.
    EDIT. I may have found the area that is causing the problem. See last screenshot of Website Storage Settings panel. For some reason, that is now on 0. I don't remember changing it to that or ever seeing this section before. Should I move it to some other number?
    Another EDIT: I did move that slider over in the last screenshot, and I now have the cache and Clear works again. So you helped me solve this problem that was causing FF to crash all the time, I think. Thank you!
    But now that I've seen that list of places storing things, I'm worrried about the ones I've never heard of and don't remember visiting. Is it a good idea to click Delete all sites or am I over-reacting to all this malware scare? Maybe I picked them up from Pinterest. I do have Sophos Antivirus running, so I don't think I have a problem at this time.

  • How to set proxy server in firefox in windows mobile

    how can i ser proxy for firefox
    i am using windwos mobile and i can only set the proxy for GPRS
    is there any way to set in firefox?
    pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaassse

    I haven't tested this, but if you type about:config in the address bar and search for "proxy" then you might be able to set the "network.proxy.http" and "network.proxy.http_port" preferences to the name and port of your proxy server.

  • Why does it just keep saying "Downloading Firefox" for hours?

    I am downloading from Explorer. It just keeps saying Downloading Firefox after I double click on the installer. It goes on for hours and hours. It is ironic that it tells me that "you're about to enjoy the very latest in speed, flexibility and security so you're always in control." Please help.

    ''jscher2000 [[#answer-660691|said]]''
    <blockquote>
    That's a hard question to answer, since it could be a particular download server at fault, or maybe your security software.
    If you are downloading the "stub" installer from the main page, could you try getting the "full" installer from this page (scroll down to your preferred language):
    https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/

    Thank you VERY much!! I was pulling my hair out trying different things!

  • TS3297 Why won't my iTunes finish downloading the songs I bought around 6 hours ago?

    Does anyone know why my iTunes would just stop downloading music randomly after downloading three songs?

    You probably need to use the Microsoft Installer cleanup Utility.
    Here is a method for removal, clean up and reinstall:
    Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program. The installer doesn't give any message to confirm the installation.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
    (To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install)
    Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
    XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Vista
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    *If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
    When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
    Restart your PC.
    Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
    Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
    If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
    restart your PC
    Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
    If it does, install iTunes.

  • Where can I find a proxy server for firefox?

    I would like to try using a proxy. I've looked into it a bit before, but the sites where I found proxy addresses appeared pretty sketch. At one time I found a page on the firefox support site that named some suggested proxy websites, so I assume they are fairly safe. Trouble is, despite an hour of searching, I can't find that page again. Can anyone give me a link to that page? Or provide some suggestions regarding proxies? Thanks

    I just want to use portal server and deploy some
    applications written in JAVA. Have I made myself
    understood?
    Still not clear.
    Do you want a server application that deploys software. For example you create a game. Someone logs into your "portal server" and downloads the game from that?
    Or do you just want to know how to package a java app that you have already written, and then put it on a CD so someone can install that on their computer?

  • Why won't Habbo load completely on Firefox?

    Okay well, for the past 2 days, Habbo will not load completely while I'm on Firefox. The loading bar comes up and it begins to load, but it never finishes. Why is this happening? I've tried using other browsers and it the loading bar does finish loading all the way, but there are a few difficulties, like some peoples characters won't show up. Is there something wrong with my computer? Please help me. I have a Mac, just to let you know, in case that helps you with anything.

  • Why won't Adobe Flash Player download completely onto my new OS X 10.8.3?

    I downloaded the installation app from the Adobe website, and went through the process of choosing how to receive updates and the like. But when the installation itself begins, it gets up to 7% then stops. It stays there for a while, then quits randomly, and there's no error message. I've tried it a couple times, and have downloaded the app from the website a couple times too. I don't understand why it won't work on my new computer.
    I have an OS X 10.8.3
    Processor: 2.9 GHz 1600 MHz DDR3, Intel Core i7

  • Why won't Elements 9 trial download

    I am trying to download a trial version of photoshop elements 9 to see how I like it before buying it and no luck for 2 days getting it to download.  Called support and they were NO HELP AT ALL!!!  The man who could barely speak english said not much help for trial versions.  In other words, til Adobe has my money, they won't help me.  Not a good way to win me over as a potential customer.  The small black box that says Akamai Download Manager Installer comes up but nothing else will happen after that. 

    I have a fast connection but it still took me over 30 minutes to complete the downloads from Adobes busy servers. The Akamai Download Manager allows you to pause and re-start download whenever you need.
    N.B. It won’t work with some browsers such as Google Chrome. It’s recommended you use Internet Explorer 7 or 8; or Firefox 2 or 3 on Windows.
    On Mac OS X 10.5 - 10.6 use Firefox 2 or 3; or Safari 5.
     

  • Why we need a proxy server while we are using Web services?

    Hi guys,
    i am new to web service.
    i tried to implement the web services thru Sun One Application server.
    thru one of my web service operation only i am establishing connection with the database.
    by that time it has thrown the exception "*connection with the host could not be established*".
    but i created a proxy setting thru netbeans and the the database connection established.
    What is the difference?
    When i tried to conect with database thru a normal java program i never created a proxy.
    Why i need in case of web service.
    For kind information: We have firewall in the network...
    can any one tell me briefly What is the need of proxy setting over there???
    thanx,
    subbu

    hi guys,
    after a long struggle, i found the answer for this question.
    that is In Sun One Application Server, we have the WS-Plugin (Web Server Plugin)
    that plugin is used to redirect the HTTP request to a Web Server from the Application server.
    In default this plugin will be in enable mode.
    As long as WS-plugin is enabled, we need to proxy setting to handle any HTTP service.
    is i am right?
    if anyone have better solution that this, pls post that here.

  • HT203200 Question: why won't one specific show download?

    Hi,
    When I was downloading 8 different purchased TV shows, all episodes of seasons I've purchased, one,5th on the list wouldn't download sighting err=8003. I retried many times with the same result. All the others downloaded before and after. Help?
    Hope someone has the answer!
    Thanks,

    So I received the 30G Video IPod for Xmas. Like it a
    lot. I have the most current version of ITunes. I
    purchased two tv shows and one music video on ITunes.
    I synced the iPod. Had sync all movies selected.
    It synced the TV shows, synced a few other movies
    that came with albums (Blue Orchid by White Stripes
    Video for example). BUT the music video I had just
    purchased won't sync. I tried a few tricks, created
    a playlist, etc.. but the movie section wouldn't
    even see the playlist. I tried putting the video in
    a music playlist but it wouldn't sync there either.
    How do I set up Movie Playlists so that they are
    recognized by ITunes? Any idea why that vid won't
    sync?
    Thanks!
    I have been having a similar issue with my TV shows. For example, I have the entire 2nd season of Lost and iTunes is syncing the episodes in whatever order it "feels like" {for lack of a better term} usually skipping large portions of the episodes which I had not watched, I even confirmed that the play counts were 0 and that I was syncing the most recent 5 unwatched episodes and it didn't work. It also did this with Beavis and Butt-head as well. What I ended up having to do is setting up the iPod to sync only checked items and then manually checking and unchecking the items I wanted and did not want to sync, and this fixed the issue.
    Hope this helps.
