Windows Explorer crawls with DW 8 running

If I leave DW running for any period of time, it eventually
affects my ability to move/manage files in Windows Explorer. For
instance, to simply move or copy a small text file from one network
drive to another could take 20 to 30 seconds. If DW is not running
it is nearly instantaneous.
I'm running Windows XP. Any ideas?

If you had an earlier version of iTunes that worked, you could downgrade iTunes and Quicktime back to the previous version. You have to uninstall iTunes and quicktime first.
You would have to rebuild your library from the xml file though as the older version will not wok with the version 9 library file.
There are an number of extra codec packs and converters that upset Quicktime, usually causing it to crash, but I haven't seen this one with Quicktime before.
You may already know that the Sony Vaio comes with software that upsets iTunes and causes problem with the library. There are numerous threads on my library is empty from people with Vaios. Not your problem though.

  • Since installing 3.6.12, firefox crashes continuously...I have gone back to Windows Explorer because firefox does not run anymore. Upon any actioin in firefox, the screen goes white and freezes and I get an error message saying firefox has stopped working

    just about any action in firefox will cause a "WHITE SCREEN" freeze up and then an error message stating that firefox has stopped working. This happens in EVERY sessioin of firefox.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • How do I save a site like Dictionary to my desktop for easy access. I could do it with Windows explorer but with firefox , I'm lost

    Not accustom to this program and I'm trying to apply and save a site to my desktop. ( dictionary ) for easy access.

    To create a shortcut on the desktop, you can drag-and-drop the "site identity" icon (it's either a globe or a padlock that appears to the left of the URL on the address bar).
    If that's inconvenient (for example, if you always use Firefox maximized), there might be an extension which lets you create the shortcut from inside Firefox. If you want to search for one, you can start here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

  • Windows Explorer folder context menu crash

    Hello, On a PC running Windows 7x64 Ultimate,  Windows Explorer closes with a
    "Windows Explorer has stopped working" message, and needs to be restarted.
    It quits when I right click on a folder, while right clicking on a file doesn't cause it
    to quit. So far I've tried:
    Uninstalling and reinstalling graphics drivers, SVC scan, malware scans, virus scan,
    hijack this, safe mode, clean boot, shexview,  shmnview, reliability monitor, and event
    viewer. I could use some help with what shell extensions to modify, if that is
    even the problem.  Thanks

  • After Firefox update, pages are redirected whenever I type a letter or try to enter url, different redirects based on letter I type. Opens a windows explorer window, goes to original login, opens Start/Run window with cmd in box etc.

    Please send some advice if you have any ideas of how to solve this issue.
    The info that is shown about my computer is not accurate. The machine with the problems below is running 64 bit Vista but I cannot access a site like this one due to the constraints listed below.
    I fell for what I thought was a Firefox update but since installing it, when entering a URL, I am redirected back to original computer log in / password entry box. If I use my browser window drop down list I can get into something like Facebook and move around but as soon as I try to type any letter into a 'comment' box, I am redirected to both a Windows Explorer type page showing my various drives and another Window from my Start/Run with the dialog box open with cmd entered in it already. Certain typed letters don't show up at all when trying to enter a 'comment' on Facebook while various letters get various different responses. It is impossible to enter any URL or use my browser other than the items in my drop down. Once there, say to my bank account, I cannot enter any password as I am immediately redirected to someplace else upon trying to type a letter or character. I don't know how to get my browser working. I have tried IE as well and the same thing happens. All started after the supposed upgrade of Firefox. Your help would be appreciated. Thank you.

If I use my browser window drop down list I can get into something like Facebook and move around but as soon as I try to type any letter into a 'comment' box, I am redirected to both a Windows Explorer type page showing my various drives and another Window from my Start/Run with the dialog box open with cmd entered in it already. Certain typed letters don't show up at all when trying to enter a 'comment' on Facebook while various letters get various different responses. It is impossible to enter any URL or use my browser other than the items in my drop down. Once there, say to my bank account, I cannot enter any password as I am immediately redirected to someplace else upon trying to type a letter or character. I don't know how to get my browser working. I have tried IE as well and the same thing happens. All started after the supposed upgrade of Firefox. Your help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • How to restrict users working on Windows 7 clients from accessing Windows Explorer and other systems in the network through Group Policy with a domain controller running on Windows Server 2008 r2

    Dear All,
    We are having an infrastructure setup of around 500 client computers managed through group policy.
    Recently the domain controllers have been migrated from Windows Server 2003 to Server 2008 R2.
    Since this account requires extremely strict environment, we need to figure the solution for restricting the users from access anything locally.
    It would be great if you can assist me with the following query.
    How to restrict users logged on Windows 7 clients from accessing Windows Explorer and browsing other systems in the network through Group Policy with a domain controller running on Windows Server 2008 r2 ?
    Can we disable Network Tab on the left hand pane ?
    explorer.exe is blocked already, but users are able to enter the Windows Explorer by clicking on the name which is visible on the Start Menu.

    You cannot block explorer.exe when you do not replace the shell - the
    desktop you see effectively IS explorer.exe...
    Your requirement sounds like you need a custom shell:

  • Help! Windows Explorer crashes regularly when using "SharePoint" directory synced with OneDrive for Business

    We are using SharePoint 2013 and I want to sync document libraries with
    OneDrive for Business with my PC running Windows 7.
    In general, it works, but my Windows Explorer crashes very often (after a few minutes) when I navigate in the synced directories and open files there (or copy files into them in Windows Explorer).
    How can I find out what happens and how to avoid it?
    remark:
    We are still using Office 2007, so I installed only OneDrive for Business from the Office 2013 DVD and
    deactivated all other components like Office 2013 by hand:
    (so for example, the shared office feature or MS Info Path etc. were not installed)
    Is there a crash log, where I can find more information about the crash?
    Does OneDrive maybe need other components to be installed and can I install them without damaging my existing Office 2007 setup?

    Did  you check your Event Viewer for any errors during the time when Windows Explorer crashed?
    Thanks for this hint!
    The Log file says the following, so it seems to be WIDCOMM\Bluetooth Software\btncopy.dll
    to be responsible for the crashing Windows Explorer

  • While browsing Firefox, display another htm*file by double-clicking it in Windows Explorer and not getting the erro message "Firefox is already running (etc) "

    While browsing the Web with Firefox, I often want to view an htm (or html etc) file that is recorded on my computer, by double-clicking it in my Windows Explorer, hoping it will open automatically a new tab.
    When I try this now, I get the error message "Firefox is already running (etc)" .
    In my current setup, Firefox is associated with the htm and html file name extensions.
    If, instead of double-clicking the filename in the Explorer, I choose the Firefox menu item "Open a file", this works OK.
    In old versions of Firefox, double-clicking a filename in the Windows Explorer or File Manager caused Firefox to open a new window every time which was ok.
    I have the same problem with Thunderbird, which I have associated with the "eml" file name extension. How can I view a series of recorded ".eml" files with Thunderbird when Thunderbird is already running ? Thank you.

    The target field of the desktop shortcut is "D:\C_Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" (no switch)
    The system/environment variable MOZ_nO_REMOTE is now 0, changed from 1, but I can see no difference. Maybe I need to restart the system to get a change ?
    Thank you.

  • OfficeJet 4500 and Problem with Launching Windows Explorer (XP OS)

    I installed HP OfficeJet 4500 wireless printer with XP operating system on my desktop PC in Wireless mode.  Printing works fine from desktop and wireless laptops.  However, when I try to access Windows Explorer on my desktop PC, using the desktop shortcut or executable file name in the "Run" menu, the screen flashes, goes blank (blue screen) then refreshes the desktop but will not launch Windows Explorer.  This also occurs when I go to My Computer or Network Places and select "My Documents" or click on the root of the C: drive.  The only way I can access my files is to use the actual program they were created in (i.e., Word, Excel, Adobe, etc.)  I used System Restore and restored my computer to a date prior to installing the printer and this solved the problem.  When I reinstalled the HP OfficeJet printer, the problem recurred, so it is definitely associated with installing the printer.  Anyone have a fix for this?  Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    I haven't seen that issue specifically.  I would download and run the HP Printer Diagnostic Utility.  There might be some file conflicts during the installation that are not resolved that this utility might fix.  I have a C309a AiO that had some other issue that the Diagnostic utility fixed.

  • Your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer - related to multiple uploads?

    Hi folks -
    I've read through some threads regarding "Your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer" and it seems a lot of folks have a lot of solutions throughout the forum posts.  Is there anything official or semi-official regarding
    this? 
    I've tried a lot of the fixes including:
    checking to see if the WebClient service is on
    modifying so-and-so registry (I've since changed them back since they seem to have no effect)
    and changing various settings in Internet Options including making sure the site is in the Local intranet zone.
    I could live without this functionality but just recently my upload-multiple-files functionality in SharePoint 2010 has also gone away (red x instead of directory UI).  I wonder if it's related somehow and could give us a clue.
    If it helps I'm using various browsers but of the IE flavor 8 and 9 32-bit as the base for testing this.

    For SharePoint 2013 (so could apply to 2010 as well), my problem was that I was trying to "Open with Explorer"
    something that probably can't be opened with Explorer. In my case, I just wanted to open my team's Shared Documents with Explorer. I found that when I first log into SharePoint and view the page, I'm presented with those Shared Documents, but also other things
    as well.
    To get "Open with Explorer" to work, I must click "Shared Documents" under the Libraries heading on
    the left. Then, all the other stuff (Links, Getting Started, etc.) go away and I'm focused on my team's shared documents. From there, I can go up to the Library Tools section in the ribbon, choose the Library tab in the ribbon, and click Open with Explorer.
    Works like a champ on Windows 7 64-bit, running IE 9 32-bit.
    Unfortunately that's not what was going on in my case.  One obvious way to check is to see if other people or other computers can Open with Explorer.  In my case it was just this one machine on my desk that had the issue.

  • In SharePoint 2010 Document Library "Open with Explorer" Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer

    Hi.
    I am getting below error "Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer" while click "Open with Explorer" option in document library.
    My system is client machine which is 32 Bit system and
    Web Client service is also running and Window 7 PC.
    Other SharePoint sites "Open with Explorer" option in document library is working fine but specific site is giving error.
    Even it was working fine but not is giving this error.
    Please help me on it. Its making frustrations.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you got “Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer” error.
    Did you enable the both authentication (Windows and FBA) on default zone.
    As far as I remember when FBA is enabled on the same zone when Windows is used, it breaks whole client integration.
    So it will be better if you will recheck your architecture and will use different zones for Windows and FBA.
    There is also another thing to try: use claims based authentication with authentication provider which will work both with Windows and FBA.
    What’s more, you can also check with below steps.
    Use compatibility mode to check whether it works.
    Open IE->Tools->Compatibility View Settings
    Add the site into Trusted sites to check whether it works..
    Open the IE->Internet Options->Security->Sites->add the site into the Websites, then check whether it works.
    In addition, you can also try to enable Basic authentication on the client computer, by setting the BasicAuthLevel registry entry of the following key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters

  • Trying to open a sharepoint library in Windows Explorer via IE 8 results in the error "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer"

    I am attempting to connect to a Microsoft Sharepoint library, via the "Actions -> Open in Windows Explorer" option from the Sharepoint page.  When I do so, I get the error message "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer".  In short, I am trying to get the "drag and drop" functionality of a Sharepoint library.
    I am running Windows 7 64-bit and IE8.  The target Sharepoint environment is a MOSS 2007 EE.  My Windows "WebClient" service is running, and I have no problem connecting to this exact library via a Windows XP computer running IE8.

    Verify that the Webclient is started automatically from the Services.msc
    Verify that your Portal is in the Intranet local security zone (You can reach it from Your Internet Explorer Browser Security Tag) if not add it to the list
    restart the WebClient service if it's work good
    If not you have to create a network share to your portal URL directly not your documents library.
    Open Windows Explorer or My Computer from the Windows Start Menu.
    From the Tools menu, click Map Network Drive…. A new Map Network Drive window opens.
    In the Map Network Drive window, choose an available drive letter from the dropdown list located next to the "Drive:" option. Any drives already mapped will have a shared folder name displayed inside the dropdown list, next to the drive letter.
    Type the name of the folder to map wich is in this case your SharePoint Portal URL (Don't include the documents libraries)
    Click the "Reconnect at login" checkbox if this network drive should be mapped permanently. Otherwise, this drive will un-map when the user logs out of this computer.
    If the remote computer that contains the shared folder requires a different username and password to log in, click the "different user name" hyperlink to enter this information.
    Click Finish.
    I am looking for a suite method :)

  • Photoshop CS5.5 - Unable to select Open With...Photoshop or Illustrator in Windows Explorer

    Hi,
    When I am in Windows Explorer or just in a Folder and I  Right-Click  on say a .jpg file and select Open With...  I am not able  to select  Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator for that matter.  I have  Dreamweaver CS4  and that shows up as an option.  I have gone through  the process of trying to add the  Adobe Photoshop .exe file, but it  still doesn't work.  However, if I open Adobe Bridge, I am able to  select Photoshop or Illustrator to open a file.  Is this  connected to  my install or is there something else going on?  I did  uninstall an  ancient version of Adobe Photoshop 7.0 that I've had for  years, but  that was prior to installing Production Premium CS5.  Could  that have  caused an issue?  I read that uninstalling an old Photoshop  can cause  problems like this.
    If that is the case, how do I fix it.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I am running Production premium CS5 with windows7 64 bit system. On right clicking the file in explorer,I am able to choose my default programme in which the file is to be opened and it is opening accordingly.
    I have Cs4 photoshop in another system with XP professional and here also the above option is available.I wonder how u will not have that feature or how it will not work inspite of having it.___Bosu Babu

  • Impossible to uninstall v16. Automatically re-installs with wrong language (afrikaans) despite manual uninstall of rem Moreover keeps freezing windows explorer.

    I Downloaded and installed v17 beta on my desktop (W7/64). OK
    I noticed later that the version had changed without doing anything (moved back to v16.0.2, and displayed in Afrikaans).
    Note that a second drawer is installed under Program files X86 (Mozilla maintenance service)
    I uninstalled both drawers (Firefox & mozilla maintenance service) several times through windows control panel.
    Every times remain some leftovers (e.g desktop icon, and the drawers listed above , but they are generally empty)
    I tried cleaning registry afterwards (Tuneup utilities, Ccleaner) and even reboot the machine)
    And it's always the same story: Firefox icon re-appears on my desktop, and can be normally opened . The software is always displayed in afrikaan language .
    Moreover, I noticed (when I try to open the drawer (program files X86) that windows explorer freezes.
    I had same problems on 2 windows 7 partitions, same computer. But never under windows 8
    I really could do with a bit of help. It looks as though this piece of software is corrupt, and I really don't understand how it can manage to reappear a couple of minutes after being uninstalled .
    Otherwise it's not a genuine Firefox version ?
    Best regards
    Philippe cante
    I made screenshots of unistall/cleaning/opening process if that's of any interest to you But I can't attach a file!

    The maintenance service runs as a background Window service if necessary and is responsible for downloading and applying an update for all installed Firefox versions without the need to respond to an UAC confirmation that comes with a dimmed window. You only need to give permission once when you install Firefox and the maintenance service isn't installed yet.
    If the Firefox user interface (menu bar) is in the wrong language or if you want to change the current language then you can get Firefox in the language of your choice here:
    *Firefox 17.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
