With Windows Vista Once the file is Downloded I Can't Open File, Whats wrong, What Can I Do to Solve this problem?

Tried to download an AntiVirus program Windows Vista and Firefox, once I click download the file is taken to the Download management window, then I try to open the File by Double-Click' or Right Clicking The Mouse, but nothing happens. the word Open it's not Highlighted or the right click won't do anything. Has anybody experienced this problem before? Help

If "Open" and "Open Containing Folder" in the right-click context menu in the Download Manager window are grayed then that means that the file is no longer in the original download location and they may have been removed by Anti-virus or cleanup software.
It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.

  • I want to sync between a netbook with Windows 7 and a laptop with Windows Vista, and the bookmarks don't transfer?

    Everything else looks like it transfers (though appearance is different, I'm guessing from different Windows), but bookmarks are blank when transfer from Windows 7 to Windows Vista.

    Firefox's built-in ability to play MPEG-encoded media through its built-in HTML5 player requires the Media Foundation components of Windows.
    Some users may have blocked this from within Firefox in order to make it easier to download MP3s. To double-check on that:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''media''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) If '''media.windows-media-foundation.enabled''' is in bold type and "user set" to false, double-click to switch its value back to true.
    (4) If '''media.windows-media-foundation.play-stand-alone''' is in bold type and "user set" to false, double-click to switch its value back to true.
    Then try reloading the tab with the MP3.
    If Firefox is set to use Media Foundation and it still doesn't work, maybe something is missing from Windows. Another Windows 7 user reported that they were able to fix a problem with Media Foundation using a download from Microsoft:
    <blockquote>Solved the problem, installed the Windows Media Feature Pack ([http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968211]) which gives you the Media Player, DVD Maker and Media Center.
    I've deactivated those three via the Control Panel and still got MP3 support.&nbsp;:D</blockquote>

  • I can not watch the videos because ipad 2 does not support adobe flash player .Is there a way to solve this problem  ...

    The problem with flash player is definitely negative for a device such as Ipad 2 ...

    Flash is not, and quite possibly never will be, suppported (and which is well known about iOS devices) : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/
    Apps such as Skyfire claim to support flash, but their reviews are mixed. Some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store, so you could try checking there.

  • HT4623 When I go to use my Ipod on my music app it just keeps flipping through the songs and won't allow me to play my music is there a solution to solve this problem?

    Did I need another iphone or can I fix the problem myself?

    Hello G iphone
    No, you would not need to get another phone unless you want one. But the main thing that needs to be done is to sync the media back onto your iPhone. I have provided articles for troubleshooting the skipping, managing of the sync, and finally an article to download the purchases again through the iTunes app.

  • WRT54GL with Windows Vista

    Greetings,
    We just bought two Dell E520 computers that will come pre loaded with Windows Vista OS. I also have a WRT54GL router still fresh in the box and un opened.
    When we receive our new computers we want to use our new WRT54GL.
    Dose Linksys have new drivers that will be compatable and run with Windows Vista and the WRT54GL?
    Thanks in advance for your help and support
    Leigh
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks,
    Can I use the Linksys CD that came with the router. On the CD it says Run CD First. Can this disk run on Windows Vista?
    If not do I need to somewhere on Linksys site to download a new disk?
    Thanks for your support and help.

  • I have been trying to update to iOS 5 and every time I hit update it says, " There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone. The network connection could not be established."  What do I need to do to update to solve this problem?

    I have been trying to update my iPhone 4 with iOS 5 for about 30 minutes and I keep getting the same thing. It says,"There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone. The network connection could not be established." What do I need to do to solve this problem?

    For error -50: See error 13 and 14: 
    Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry.

  • I am using a PC with Windows Vista. I've been using iTunes on this computer for over 6 years. Suddenly I can not play any music on iTunes. I tried deleting and reinstalling iTunes however it did not fix the issue. Can anyone please help?

    Suddenly, as of two weeks ago, iTunes will no longer play any music. I tried reinstalling but this did not work either. I have a PC with Windows Vista. Has anyone else experienced this problem and fixed it?

    Yes, I just tried playing a 10-second mp3 file I acquired from The Oatmeal and didn't once pass my external hard disk.  It's a simple, monotone, high-frequency sound, but I get the same results: VLC's UI is still responsive, but its functionality freezes up, i.e. the buttons are still animated, and the menu still works, but there's no sound, the progress bar doesn't move, and the file doesn't play.

  • Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?

    Why is it that when I connect my iPhone 5S to my Windows Vista computer, the photos made with my iPhone are all of very low quality and most of them are turned upside down?
    On another note, the iPhone tells me that it's ''busy'' when opening a photo on the computer.
    (I tried restarting my PC, connecting via another USB port, importing using PhotoStream, etc...)

    Are you using the front or rear camera? When you say they are low quality, are you referring to file/pixel size, or how the picture looks? As far as upside down, how are you holding the phone? Older versions of Windows have issues reading the Metadata from the pictures and will not display the same.
