  • MSN does not open.

    I have MSN as my home page and it worked fine until yesterday.  Now it does not open.  I tried to reset, but without success.  What should I do to recover my MSN home page? Help, please!

    Sorry, left click the icon or right click on the desktop Start menu Internet Explorer instead of the standard that you will use to access your default homepage (MSN).

    You will see "in private browsing' and MyMSN linking options assuming you have configuration page MyMSN. If you have a MyMSN page, left-click on the link. Once your MyMSN page opens you can left-click on the icon home page of IE on the top of the page right in the header (it looks like a house) and should open your MSN home page.

    If you do not have a MyMSN page, try left-clicking on in private browsing, once IE opens in Inprivate mode left click on the home page icon in the upper header right and should open your MSN home page.

    I have no idea why the MSN homepage is accessible via myMSN and private browsing, but not directly from the IE icon on your desktop or start menu, I guess a MSN update last night has caused a conflict with IE 9.0 as IE works fine on all other Web sites.

    I hope that someone more tech savey will respond with an explanation/solution.

  • I updated firefox and lost my home page MSN I get google search

    Instead use a link on the MSN page to make your homepage, try to use one of the techniques in this article to support: How to set the home page.

    Some users have accidentally lost their home page and modules using the Refresh function during their update. This can happen when you see a prompt that Firefox is slow at the start and you can speed it up by restoring some default settings. If you click this button, your Firefox settings folder is moved to your desktop in a folder called old data from Firefox. Do you see something like that? If so, I suggest hanging for a few weeks, in the case where you notice something else missing. Feel free to ask questions about the rescue of the data in this folder.

  • Since the update of firefox, facebook, yahoo mail and some msn sites do not work

    At the same time as this update, I had cleaned my cache and cookies. But since then, Yahoo Mail are not available in Firefox, Facebook loads with only text for things such as news, login, etc., and several loading in the same way MSN sites.

    You can try the following steps in case of problems with web pages:

    You can reload webpages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Command + shift + R' (Mac)

    Clear the cache and cookies only from Web sites that are causing problems.

    "Clear the Cache":

    • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > "Use the custom settings for history" > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

    • Put yourself in the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance
    • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe
  • I've recently updated to 13.0 since the previous version, but now I can't watch any youtube or msn hotmail chat people.

    Hello hold3n, the issues raised in hotmail will be fixed by an update in the coming days.

    the problem with youtube videos is probably related to the recent update of the adobe flash plugin, please see the following article for common solutions: 11.3 Flash does not load video in Firefox

  • Equium A210 - after update BIOS problems connect to MSN Live Messenger

    Hello

    I just installed the latest update of the Bios for my Equium A210, as has been the first time results attempted this \i watched carefully and everything seems to go correctly but the laptop is restarted, it beeps and showed a checksum error, I chose the option to reboot with 'Default settings'

    Since that I got problems to connect to MSN Live Messenger and I wondered if this might be something to do with the Bios Update, it is also possible to 'come back' to the old Bios somehow?

    Thank you
    Lee

    Hello

    your question isn't really a related problem of the machine. The "Checksum Error" is normal after each update BIOS since the checksum of the BIOS which consists the BIOS settings and the version of the BIOS is not correct due to a modified version of BIOS.
    So, the next time that you update your BIOS you will get a "BIOS checksum error" again. Worry not Don t, it s nothing serious.

    With regard to your Messenger:
    1. uninstall the Messenger
    2. download the latest version from the MSN site
    3. install a new
    4. have fun

    Welcomes ;)

  • Downloaded the latest Windows 7 update yesterday, November 3, 2009 and lost all my "Favorites" in MSN. Also, when I do a reboot, the Verizon FIOS Media Manager starts. Only the downloaded last update - has nothing else. Please notify

    Downloaded the latest Windows 7 update yesterday, November 3, 2009 and lost all my "Favorites" in MSN. Also, when I do a reboot, the Verizon FIOS Media Manager starts. Only the downloaded last update - has nothing else. Please notify

    Yes I have FIOS Media Manager installed, but I've done since the start of Windows 7.  For the first week or so it does not start on my download restarts.  It started with this Nov 3 update from Microsoft.  I went to downloads and there were two of them; Update for Internet Explorer 8 for x 64 based and updated Windows Defender definition.

    After you install these two updates on restart FIOS M.M. was live at startup and my favorite MSN have disappeared.  I disabled FIOS M.M., but somehow, he has been activated with this download.  I went on my drive external backup and recovered the Favorites but am always intrigued by this phenomenon and how it changed my registry.
