Download latest towers "connecting to the update server", will not download

I tried to download the latest version of Firefox for the last 5 days on different internet connections. He turns and hangs on "connecting to the update server". The download will not be completed. Can you please help? Thank you.

To install Firefox on a Mac, follow these steps:

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
  3. Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
    2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

If the download is interrupted, check the reasons for it: if it's a low slow connection, it would be wise to seek a faster point to connect.

Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • Software update gets stuck to connect to the update server

    For a very long time (since Firefox 4 or more), I'm notified of updates, but when I say update I just get a window that says it has download firefox and it connects to the update server and it stays there forever. I left open for days and it never goes away. I've always had to go download a new copy of updated, but I really like to get the auto update work.

    I tried to delete history/cache/etc for ever. I deleted everything related to Mozilla AppData, I lose everything, but always the software update gets stuck. Of course, he's stuck something other than trying to connect to the update server. Any ideas?

  • Application error handler: "the update server is not responding."

    With each attempt to check updates for Creative Suite 5, the Application Manager responds immediately with an error: "the update server is not responding. The server may be offline temporarily, or internet or Firewall setting may be incorrect. Please try again later. "My last check for updates was 27/03/2012.

    I haven't added any restriction since 3/27. I do not block outbound communications in my firewall. All communications through all firewalls are functioning normally.

    Is there a way to check if the update server is really low?

    Perhaps the address of the server has changed. It would not be the first time that a person no - think had this notion: '' this is what we will do, change the IP address of the update server and then unroll the new address in the next update."

    Thanks, Tooky. You nailed it.

    For anyone who reads this, simple workaround for this problem on Windows is as follows:

    • Open the Device Manager. To do this, type "device manager" in the search bar of the Start Menu.
    • Open "network adapters."
    • Disable any device driver listed with the name "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter.... ». To do this, right-click the name, and then select "disable."
    • Try updating Adobe Application Manager. This should work for now.

    I don't know if the original plan of Microsoft to push the use of this driver in the throat of the Windows 7 certification companies never materialized. So although my internet and network connections remained after I disabled the driver, I recommend the pilot in reactivating once your update is complete.

    TookyDC has been damaged, but easy enough to find a way to fix. If you want to read the outdated Adobe solution still works for this problem, the fixed link is http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-update-server-repsonding-cs4.html.

    WARNING: After completing the last updated Adobe, Microsoft Security Essentials is now failing to validate Windows 7 on my computer. By reactivating the above driver did not help. This could be an isolated incident. But you should be aware of the problem I now have much more serious. What a joy!

  • "The update server is not responding"

    I am a member of creative cloud and I'm trying to update Photoshop to 13.1 but whenever I go to help > updates, Adobe Application Manager keeps giving me "the update server is not responding...". »

    I solved the problem. After countless times of updating of Windows 8, uninstalling and reinstalling, I found that my laptop Samsung came with software that would allow me to put a "Mobile Access Point" or in other words a hotspot.

    I followed the instructions on how to disable the "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter", but my computer does not display a Miniport Microsoft Virtual Mifi card.

    I knew that this adapter set a hotspot so what I did activate the 'Mobile Access Point"via the samsung software that came with my computer, and then as I expected, he showed the"Microsoft Virtual Wifi Miniport Adapter"and was able to turn it OFF.

    After you turn off, I could see updates without the server update Responing no error.

    Also, after having diabling the "Microsoft Virtual Wifi Miniport Adapter", I went to the Device Manager and the title of the network card, I found that "Microsoft Hosted network virtual card" has been disabled. So for those who don't see not the "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport card" you must activate a hotspot first if it will appear or try to disable through Device Manager by disabling "Microsoft Hosted network virtual card"

    If this proves to be a problem with Adobe Application Manager and Microsoft Virtual Wifi adapter. I hope that Adobe will have a fix for this soon because the users of Windows 8 is not the "Microsoft Virtual Wifi Miniport Adapter" visible by default.

    I hope this helps someone!

    I have laptop HP Pavilion dv7-1260.  When I put in a blu - ray disc I'm propmted to get an update.  Even with the update, it will not play a blu ray.

     

    Hello

    ·         What is the update message that you receive?

    ·         Do you have an error message when you try to read the Blu - ray Disc?

    ·         This problem occurs only with Blu ray discs or any of the others?

    To play a Blu - ray disc, you must use a non-Microsoft program that supports Blu - ray playback and a device that can play Blu - ray discs.

  • How can I keep a connectivity when the DNS server is not available?

    We have remote locations with several computers that are joined to our domain via a gateway to gateway VPN. When VPN breaks down, they lose the connection to our CD/DNS server. Their ip addresses remain the same, since they are managed by their local router but they failed to connect to other devices to their location even though the devices have static IP addresses. If I understand the use of the LMhosts file must allow me to allow them to keep local communications between computers. I think the entry in LMHOSTS should be like this for each local machine they need to access.

To determine if a network connectivity problem is caused by a bad configuration or a problem affecting the router, try bypassing the router by connecting your computer directly to the modem.
