• Flash Player 11.3.300.262 works only with Firefox. I think I found the problem.

  * Flash Player 11.3.300.262 does not work with Firefox. I think I found the problem.*

  Millions of people got off work & turned on there computers recently to discover that Firefox isn't playing videos or flash content. Like me, millions of people are randomly searching the Internet in an attempt futile and frustrating response. Unfortunately, many of these people will simply stop using firefox & consider a browser glitch, unreliable.

  This happened to me a few days ago. I started my computer and got a pop-up from Adobe saying that I need to update my flash 11.3.300.262 drive. I always thought that Adobe as being a reliable software company, so I clicked on it with confidence that things will take care even more fluid. To my horror, I have relalized that just after the update, my main browser, firefox has been destroyed. Then I went on the frustrating process of uninstalling, reinstalling, running virus scan, search the Internet like a lost child. I thought, "this is why I hate the update of things, because the updates always seem to change things you don't want to change, and there always seems to be a problem with updates." I generally update software month after release, because microsoft & all other software vendors always seem to not test it stuff properly before releasing. We must look a glitchy computer until the next update fixes it. Well, that is my rant. Now, let me discuss the problem I found.

  Problem:

  What I did, go to my menu firefox extensions, I disabled the 11.3.300.262 & I have reactivated the previous flash player. After that, everything worked perfectly again. Then one today (a week later), I turned on my computer and my firefox wasn't playing videos or flash content again. I went into my menu parts of firefox again, and I discovered that my old flash drive has been removed & this 11.3.300.262 new glitch had been activated. Why adobe feel the need of in my computer & automatically delete and update my flash drive. Now, it does not work. It IS REALLY FRUSTRATING!

  The question that I discovered:

  "RealPlayer" is the most popular video show & it's installed on millions of computers. For some strange reason Firefox doesn't want its users to use Real Player. Specifically the RealPlayer Record Plugin 15.0.2. I also discovered that my Plugin 15.0.2 Record of the browser has been disabled automatically when the Adobe 11.3.300.262 is automatically updated too.

  -Maybe this could be because of some conspiracy of copyright law to stop people from downloading videos from the web.

  -Maybe firefox wants people to use it download add-on instead of RealPlayer downloader.

  I don't know what ther reason. But what I know is no one will remove it RealPlayer to computer there is just to use FireFox. We can just use Chrome or Internet explorer. I took advice of people with disabilities the Extention of RealPlayer, FireFox and Adobe. I also went in my RealPlayer preferences options, but there is no option to disable the download of FireFox for registration. BECAUSE I have ALREADY DISABLED THE add-on menu FireFoxes.

  Solution:

  Step 1: Adobe needs to update all computers with the previous flash player. In this way we can choose to activate the previous flash player in our FireFox. or wait for a new update fixes the problem with firefox.

  Step 2: Adobe & FireFox need to get together and go back to the drawing board. They need create an update that actually works on computers with of Real Player installed on them. I don't like that the company made the update. All I care about is if it works. Thank you.

  Oh yes, Im market FireFox 13.0.1, Windows 7, computer HP, Real Player is up-to-date.

• Problem with the speed of the HARD drive on downgrated just on WinXP n/b Satellite A300

  After new lineup A300, it was decided to downgrade the system to Windows XP sp3.
  First of all, the AHCI mode was changed to COMPATIBILITY mode in the BIOS.
  After re-creating partitions on the HARD drive (Vista feature), XP sp3 has been installed.
  With all the drivers installation is normally, but first, I've noticed, it's very long loading of the system.
  In addition, regular copy of files of any source also went very for a long time.
  After reviewing the disk with "HDD-tune", I was shocked - maxspeed A300 HDD did not exceed 2.6 MB/sec (while on a desktop computer, this setting was more than 80 MB/s).

  My question. Is it normal? If it isn't (I think it isn't), what should I do? I ask your help or advice.

  > First of all, the AHCI mode was changed to COMPATIBILITY mode in the BIOS.
  I think it's the answer to your question.
  If you want to use the full speed of HARD drive and better performance, you must use AHCI mode.
  In this case, you can install Windows XP Home edition with the SATA driver.

  Check it please this page. You will find beautiful description how to find SATA drivers. At the end you can also find the link to the guide for "Slipstreamer SATA driver in the Windows XP boot cd using nLite".

  I hope this helps.
  Good luck!

• Dell XPS 420 with Vista Home Premium, replaced the hard drive, download now blue screen errors

  My girlfriend has a desktop Dell XPS 420 quit working a year or 2 ago. A computer technician told me that it sounded as if the hard drive was bad, recently I purchased from Dell, a Seagate 1 TB hard drive (the original is a Western Digital 320 GB).

  I bought also, once again from Dell, a copy of its installation discs for Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit.

  I installed the new hard drive, correctly, as far as I can tell, but I tried several times over the past days to install Vista and a few times I got errors (BSoD) STOP and a few other times, Windows Installer errors.

  What's wrong?

  I run Dell diagnostics that took almost a whole day, but I don't think anything. I have not partitioned the hard drive, it's like 931 GB.

  I think that may be something related to the RAM, but I'm not sure.

  Thanks for any help.

• I have a problem with my laptop does not connect to the internet. It connects to our wireless very well, but it doesn't have an internet connection.

  I have a problem with my laptop does not connect to the internet. It connects to our wireless very well, but it doesn't have an internet connection. It connects to other networks wifi very well with Internet access, is that the wireless in my house what it connects to. When I diagnose the problem, it says "Cannot communicate with DNS server (208.67.222.222)", and then under that it says: "languished network diagnostics remote hosts, but had not received a response." It connects to the Internet through an ethernet cable, but it is rather annoying pulling the cable autour. I currently have Windows Vista Home Premium. Thank you!

• AI CS5 keyboard shortcuts do not work. I restarted and have no other problem with my MacBook Pro. What is the problem?

  AI CS5 keyboard shortcuts do not work. I restarted and have no other problem with my MacBook Pro. What is the problem?

  Bill,

  The following is a general list of things, try when the question is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by problems with opening a file from external media. You tried/made some of them already; 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically preferences might be corrupt); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

  If possible / there is, you must record a current work first, of course.

  (1) close Illy and open again.

  (2) restart the computer (you can make up at least 5 times);

  (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

  4) move the folder (follow the link with this name) with closed Illy (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you can find the file here:

  https://helpx.Adobe.com/Illustrator/KB/preference-file-location-Illustrator.html

  5 look through and try the relevant among the other options (click on the link with that name, item 7) is a list of the usual suspects among other applications which can disturb and confuse Illy, point 15) applies to the maybe CS5, CS6 and CC);

  Even worse, you can:

  (6) (check the box to delete the preferences), run the cleanup tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC) to uninstall and reinstall.

• Re: Problems with the hard drive on a Satellite A200

  Hello

  I got my Satellite A200 (PSAE6E) for many years, and although I was interested for her order to to finally make the hard drive gives its first signs of failure. The symptoms started coming a few months ago. The disc will stop working, the system hangs, and I begin to hear a clicking sound from the disc. I'm afraid that one day it will stop working completely, and I can't afford without a laptop.

  I would replace it for a new hard drive, or one that is in good condition, but I'm having a hard time finding information on hard drives compatible with this model. Could someone help me with this?

  Thank you
  Gloom

  What you can do is to remove the original HARD drive and order the same.
  What you really need, it's SATA HDD and you can get it in every electronic or PC Magazine. I assume the original HARD drive was about 200 GB. What you can do now is to buy a new one with more capacity.

  Either way, what operating system are you using? I mean Win7 works perfectly on this old piece of hardware.
