Won't connect after updating to version 36, unless open up another browser first

This has happened to me both times today when i powered up my laptop. I noticed that I
was upgraded to the latest version of Firefox (36) today, but when i open the browser, I
get the 'unable to connect' message. I try a few sites and they all give me the same message.
Weirdly one of system tray icons i hvae (weather channel) connected fine and was displaying
temperature already. Weirder yet, when i bring up IE, i can connect, and after IE is up, I can
then bring up Firefox and have no more problems until i shut down...
Something weird is going on...any thoughts on what the update changed?

hi flyerphann, normally such issues are caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions. please remove all program rules for firefox from your firewall and let it detect the new version of the browser again.

  • Both iPod and iPad won't connect after update.

    Both iPod and iPad won't connect after update.  iTunes says "can't allocate a resource"

    I had the same problem after updating to iOS 7 today. I did follow the advice on another site, but additionally rebooted my iMac. Worked after that.
    Follow these steps to reset the Lockdown folder:
    Disconnect all iOS devices from your computer and quit iTunes.
    From the Finder, choose Go > Go to folder.
    Type the following and then press Return:
    /var/db/lockdown.
    The Finder window should display one or more files with long alphanumeric file names.
    In the Finder, choose Edit > Select all. Then, choose File > Move to Trash. Enter an administrator password if prompted.
    Note: Do not delete the Lockdown folder itself. Delete only the files contained inside the Lockdown folder.
    Reconnect your iOS device and open iTunes
    My Additional step: reboot the Mac. Your iPad should give the first indication that it has worked by asking you to "trust this computer" or some such. Agree. Then iTunes should have reopened with your iPad showing and syncing.

  • Wi-fi won't connect after updating to iOS5

    wi-fi wont connect after updating to iOS5

    This is what worked for me:
    1. In wireless settings, select your router and then selet "forget this network."
    2. Turn wireless off.
    3. Hard restart the phone (press power switch and main button simultaneously, hold them until the phone turns off.
    4. Reboot your router, preferably unplug the power cord completely.
    5. After your router is up and running, turn wireless back on, select your network, then enter your password.
    For me, the fix was immediate.  I hope it works for you! 

  • N97 won't connect after updating OVI Suite to 2.2....

    I just update Ovi Suite to 2.2.1.23. After a reboot of windows (vista) Ovi Suite starts, but when I connect my N97 with USB cable, Ovi suite seems not to recognize my phone. The connection with my computer is OK., I can browse my N97.
    Even when I try to find a new phone, Ovi suite doesn't see my N97.
    Everything worked a hour ago, before upgrading....

    I found this:
    /t5/Connectivity/N97-Software-update-connection-problem/td-p/669092
    After removing all nokia software, I installed the mentioned beta software updater and nokia ovi suite again. ...
    and now my N97 is connected again and I can synchronise with ovi suite....

    Hi,
    I just had huge problems in having my N97 updated. Nor Ovi Suite, nor PC Suite (after complete de-install and re-install as described in a message above), nor having installed Nokia Software Updater seperate was able to do it. Each time it halted stating that it was not able to find my device on the usb-cable while the suite itself was perfectly able to see it.
    Still, I managed to have it updated through a beta software updater. I can only hope it will work for you guys too, here's the link:
    http://betalabs.nokia.com/blog/2010/06/30/nokia-software-updater-beta-adds-device-application-update...
    Good luck to all of you !
    P.S.: make sure you attach your device to an USB-port directly on your MB !

  • After updating firefox I can not open the shortcut browser icon, but can open IE, and my whole system seems to be slow. solution please? Now when I open firefox the task manager says the process firefox is running 100% CPU in the background

    Updated firefox to latest version with custom install, no task bar or startup (in past I think I usually included startup) late Friday nite. Then when trying to open Firefox shortcut on desktop Sat. could not, would freeze up. Then if I tried to open IE same would happen. After rebooting a # of times, opened IE 1st and worked but still could not open Mozilla within IE or the desktop. Also all our 3 wireless laptops including apple have no problem with this.

    You said you tried the recommended solution, but didn't mention what that solution was. Try, from the Firefox menu bar:
    <br /><br />
    Tools -> Options -> Content
    where you will find an option to block pop-up windows. If that box is checked but there are sites from which you would like to allow pop-up, click the button "Exceptions..." to add sites to your exception list.
    See also the help article [[Pop-up blocker]].

  • Rocketfish HD-3035 Won't Connect After 10.7.5 Update

    I saw the post about the Rocketfish HD-3035 enclosure not working with Mountain Lion. I just installed the OS 10.7.5 update and now my iMAC won't mount the hard disc in my Rocketfish HD-3035 enclosure.  The HDD is a Seagate.  Anyone else seeing this problem?  For ML I understand Apple pulled the driver from the OS, perhaps they removed the driver in the update to 10.7.5?

    Don't know, but my WD external HD won't mount after updating to ML.  It also won't mount on my wifes macbook pro with 10.7.5.  It was working on snow leopard (don't know vesion number)...

  • Ipod classic won't mount after updating to itunes 11.0.2

    ipod classic won't mount after updating to itunes 11.0.2.
    I updated to itunes 11.0.2 today, after delaying it for a looong time (I have it @ work and don't like the new layout).
    Since then, none of my ipods will mount/show up/update. I've tried all USB ports, 3 ipods, 3 cords. Wondering if you know of any issues. I've restarted the mac about 15-20 times today since as soon as I hook up an ipod, itunes immediately spins the beach ball and won't let me click out of it.
    I've restarted the ipods 10+ times each.
    All of the ipods DO show up on my desktop though. Just not in itunes anywhere with 11.0.2.
    One more thing: It's not the cables or the ipods: they both mount fine when connected to my laptop (running old *** 10.4.11 and itunes 9.)
    Machine is a Mac Pro running 10.6.8.

    Finding this Post took some time but I thought it was me talking when I read it. I was having the exact same issue. I have a G3 I've been upgrading like mad, including a Sonnet G4-500 CPU a Maxtor 60gb & 80gb HDs 1gb of RAM a new LaCie Firewire800 PCI card Graphics card etc. the latest was installing Panther 10.3.9 on the new 80gb HD and also swapping out the old CD-ROM and replacing with the (Apple standard) Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-110D combo drive in it's place. got everything up and booted and poof! no burning. Toast worked read/write no problem. iTunes could read and import no problem, but wouldn't burn a CD.
    Downloaded "PatchBurn 3.1.3" installed, re-booted and all is OK in burner land again :>)
    I wanted to just post my additional thanks to the lead to Patchburner, and I'm going to donate to the cause. It's worth a $20 donation just for my joy of not throwing this computer out the window!!

    this still didn't fix iPad connectivity after updating to iOS 6.0.1 !!! intermittent wi-fi connection, even with a direct line-of-sight to the router.

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Nothing works after updating to version 15

    After updating to version 15 nothing will load. I can't open any webpage or even connect to my router via Firefox.

    '''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in Safe Mode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
    Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

    So you have business contacts that were lost... do you not have these on a Database in some shape or form? Sounds like you need to invest in a RAID1 backup setup for your computer so you dont have this issue in the future.
    As for repairing your problem, sounds like you are going to need to start from scratch at this point or if the data is still on your phone look into a program that can take the information from the phone onto iTunes.
