With firefox I encountered this: 404 Not - Found or 408 Not - foun, is it something to do with firefox? some website just couldn't go or open.

I didn't have a fire fox before and uses the IE only which work well for over 2 years but towards the end of 2010 encountered a new problem on my email on yahoo which i have never before known the problem happen like this: when i open my email on yahoo, the website just flash and stop and it said the Internet Explorer could not display the web and need to stop and i find ti difficult even to sign out the email but when i could sign out the web came back saying the web site has been recovered, but then it will just keep on repeating the same process. I doubt this could be any virus but all the other web site are functioning perfectly (I am using a Kaspersky complete Protection) I related my problem to a friend and also recommended me to download a firefox to sovle the problem.
after downloaded the fire fox my yahoo email just functioning perfectly to date, no more of that flashing back problem again.
The new problem is i could not log in to some web site that i previously could have log in easily. like I said earlier, "404 Not - Found" or "408 Not - Found'
"404 Not - Found" appeared when I click on the "Desktop Dating" website and the other a China internet movie website.

If AVG is blocking it then you need to contact AVG and ask them why that is happening.
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).<br />

  • Why with Mavericks some folders just disappear and reappear randomly for just a few seconds?

    Why with Mavericks some folders just disappear and reappear randomly for just a few seconds?

    Hi Alinc,
    I find that this happens with folders that either have a lot of stuff in them, when there is a lot of large files on my desktop, or when my computer has it's RAM bogged down. I'm guessing it's just a benign performance issue, and so far it hasn't cause me any serous problems except for one folder that constantly take a while to load but I'm not surprised because that folder has 8000+ files and is over 25GB in size LOL.
    If this is still an issue for you, or you folders disappear for so long that it becomes an inconvenience, I would recommend trying the following things:
    1) Save your work and close any open programs, but don't close your Finder folders though. Click the Apple Logo  in the upper left hand corner of the screen, then choose Force Quit. In the windows that comes up select Finder and choose Relaunch. This should force all of your open Finder folders to get refreshed. Please note this is a very brute force operation so it might be the most elegant solution.
    2) A better but less potent thing to try is cleaning up you finder folders. If like me you have hundreds of files in one folder, or there is more than a gigabyte of data in the first level of the folder, then it might be a good idea to clean it up by moving some of those files into subfolders.
    3) This is my favorite fix to try, and I recommend it to almost everyone because it's super easy and has a reasonable chance of improving your computer's performance at least a little bit.
    3.a) Go to Disk Utility, and click on your hard drive.
    3.b) Go to First Aid, and click each of the following one at a time: Verify Disk, Repair Disk, Verify Disk Permissions, and finally Repair Disk Permissions. Each of those actions should take several minutes (3 to 30) to complete on a fast hard drive, so make sure you don't need your computer for any serious work during this time.
    3.c) Once those operations are complete click on your Macintosh HD partition (right below the hard drive you clicked before) and repeat step 3.b.
    3.d) If you have any other connected hard drives or partitions you can do this for them as well. BUT, I don't recommend doing this on any Windows formatted drives, like FAT or NTFS, or your Bootcamp partition — although the First Aid buttons on the Bootcamp will probably be disabled anyway.
    Best,
    Vlad

  • How can I open a new window with the same website like the one I have open?

    In safari I can open a new window with the same website like the one I have open, that makes it easy continuing to navigate on a website and to go back to the original website

    Hello Andieas
    Why open a new window for fast browsing??
    Open new tabs.
    Just right click on what you want to open and click "Open in new Tab"
    It is easy and doesn't consume memory from your computer as well as easy to navigate.
    Hope you'll like it

  • Firefox 3.6 just installed but won't open

    SUBJECT: FIREFOX WON'T OPEN. I have used Firefox for years, but upon reinstalling my Vista Home Premium OS, I also had to reinstall all my software. The only problem I had was with Firefox, which appeared to download and install successfully, but refuses to open. I uninstalled and reinstalled it twice from the Internet, but it still won't open from either the desktop icon or the program list under 'Start'. Something seems to be blocking it, but what, and how can I fix this?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == June 29, 2010 when my Vista OS was reinstalled ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.0; Trident/4.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; Media Center PC 5.0; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729)

    Does it start in [[Safe Mode]]? If it does, close the Safe Mode Firefox and open it normally. If it doesn't open, try creating a new profile at [[Managing Profiles]]

  • Sitting in the dock - keeps prompting: this accessory not meant for iphone?

    while sitting in the provided dock - keeps prompting: this accessory not meant for iphone?
    What is up with that? Keeps doing it over and over...

    while sitting in the provided dock - keeps prompting:
    this accessory not meant for iphone?
    What is up with that? Keeps doing it over and over...
    1. It's not aligning properly with the dock. Take phone out and really look carefully at the dock and the port on the iPhone and attach them both very carefully making sure the phone is fully and completely seated in the dock.
    2. Even when seated properly, the message may display once. Hit OK and move on.
    Here's what I've learned having encountered this (though not the repetitive display of that message):
    The old docks for our other iPods really are not quite fully compatible with the iPhone. (Shame on you Apple). Somewhere on this board is a note that the new docks will be coming out soon as these 3rd parties re-vamp. I know I know... where does that leave all of us who have all this stuff that we had working just fine with our iPods pre-iPhone. I dunno but they better come up with some fix other than buy a whole new clock radio, et al.
    Business opportunity - make little dock adapters for really cheap that you just drop into all of your older iPod docks that go between the iPhone and the dock on the clock radios, et al that will bridge that gap, so to speak. Maybe somebody is already doing this???

  • TS3579 Finder is displaying wrong information on date of modification and when files are opened up, this did not help me. I am using Mavericks.

    Never tried this before but this, the topic, is a little bit annoying at times.. any idea how to fix this or is this just how it will be? This is not OS X ML tho as stated in topic.

    I've just reported that to Apple at https://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    It's fair to call it a bug I think. Opening a folder changes the modification dates of some, but not all, the folders enclosed.
    Plays havoc with organising time series (backups, things one has just worked on, etc.).

  • I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP.  I cannot open Bridge from photoshop, whichI have done for years. When I am in Photoshop,when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen, and it puts me into bridge. This is not happen

    I have Photoshop CS5, and use windows XP. I cannot open bridge from photoshop, which I have done for years.  When I am in Photoshop, when it opens, I always click on the bridge icon at the bottom of the screen and it puts me into bridge. This is not happening, the small wheel at the bottom of the screen just keeps spinning. Its like its stuck or caught in a loop. I can't get into bridge. I tried shutting down and starting up again but  the problem remains. Looking for help.  Dan

    Thanks for your response, I was able to open bridge from File-Browse in Bridge.  This worked, but was not able to go back to the way I always opened Bridge.  At least I could get to Bridge and go into Camera Raw. I never tried to open Bridge from the Start menu.  The odd thing about this is, it has happened before, and to get it "unstuck" and working again, I would shut down and restart again in a few minutes, and things would go back to normal.  This time it did not go back to normal after several attempts.  I shut down for about 3-4 hours, restarted, and it seems to be back to normal again. I am not sure if it's a problem that is getting worse each time it happens.       And yes I am using Mini Bridge in photoshop CS5.  Thank you for your help.  Dan

  • Not able to access some websites

    I have not been able to access a few websites on my Macbook. I initially thought that it was my wireless router (D-Link DIR 655) and connected my Macbook to the cable modem but still I couldn't access the website. So I figured it must be my ISP. But then my roommate who has a Gateway notebook with
    Win XP was able to get onto that website. So it surely is not my ISP or my router. I am at a loss here and would really appreciate if someone could help me with this niggling problem. Thanks in advance.

    Some websites just don't work properly with Safari. I can always access the website's home page, but some links don't work. Sometimes a different browser fixes the problem (I use Camino), but sometimes the only answer is to re-boot in XP.
    I've always had intermittent problems with eBay - random "page not found" errors. My company car leasing site works until I try and sign in. My credit card supplier's site won't allow me to print a statement.
    Seems to be sloppy programming by the site designers. They don't care that they are alienating a small percentage of potential customers.

  • When I go to yahoo mail. if i click on the email it goes to this a window with this error: 404 Not Found nginx/0.6.32

    When I go to yahoo.com or my yahoo, when I click on the email it goes to a blank page with the error message: 404 Not Found
    nginx/0.6.32. It only does it on my desktop pc. My IE allows me to acce email without this error.
    I can access it on my laptop with no problem. just on my desktop. it started about 3 weeks ago. I even uninstalled and reinstalled mozilla. I had the 5.0 and upgraded to 3.0 and is still doing the same thing.

    Go to Add or Remove Programs and look for Anti Phishing Domain Advisor. If you click on "Click here for support information" you'll see it is a Panda program. Uninstall it. Solves the problem. Don't know why the Firefox folks aren't telling people this!

  • Have published iweb site for five years with no problems and just opened a new site and get - 404: Page not found  This error is generated when there was no web page with the name you specified at the web site.-is the problem with iweb or with hosting?  T

    I am sorry if thie is republished-My first time doing this and I am not sure what goes where and where to hear feedback.
    Have published iweb site for five years with no problems and just opened a new site and get -
    404: Page not found 
    This error is generated when there was no web page with the name you specified at the web site.-
    Troubleshooting suggestions:
    Ensure the page you are linking to exists in the correct folder.
    Check your file name for case sensitivity . Index.htm is not the same as index.htm!
    Temporarily disable any rewrite rules by renaming your .htaccess file if it exists
    is the problem with
    iweb or with hosting?
    One Apple tech started to fix Iweb and had to end session and the next said problem with hosting at Network Solutions as it published
    to local folder. NWS has checked sttting a few times-
    Any help would be extremely appreciated as trying to fix this for about five weeks
    Thanks VG
    <Email Edited by Host>

    It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it. (Even though I've now noticed you mis-spelled it! - anyway, never post your address in a forum.)
    You have a site here: http://virginiagordon.com/www.virginiagordon.com/WELCOME.html
    If that's not the page you are having trouble with, what is that page's URL?

  • Firefox won't open...keep getting "404 not found" WHY? HELP

    firefox won't open...keep getting "404 not found" WHY? HELP

    The 404 message usually indicates a web page can not be found. If you are seeing that message in Firefox then Firefox is up and running but either having problems connecting to the web or not finding a specific target page. Sometimes the address may be wrong, sometimes the site may not be available.
    Have you written this message whilst using Firefox on another computer ?

    Is it one particular website you are having a problem with, if so what is that site, and what is the web address as written in the location bar. If it is many pages give at least two examples please.
    Copy and paste the location bar contents into your post
    * Keyboard key '''Ctrl + L''' (press the Control key hold it down than press the L key) that will highlight the location bar content, do that while trying to use the web page

  • Email link in file tab dropdown not working? "error 404 not found" what is fix? have refreshed firefox multiple time without success

    this started happening last year, multiple refreshes do not correct error, 'sorry the page you requested was not found', please 'Yahoo! - 404 not found' please help, Ed.

    Do you have an extension that might be modifying how the browser reports itself?
    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
