  • Safari doesn't let me access to a particular Web site, but Firefox works.

    I am an Australian user and until what about 2 months ago, I was able to access http://freezone.iinet.net.au/ using Safari, and then all of a sudden could not. When I contacted my ISP (iiNet) they could not give me any explanation but suggested that I try a different browser. I downloaded Firefox and was immediately able to access the website of freezone.

    He could be a solution, but it's a nuisance to have to use another browser to access a website.

    Does anyone have a solution to this?

    I suggest you only begin by taking the measures recommended in this support article.

  • If Firefox is set as the default browser and any application tries to open a new window, it doesn't work and I get the error "Firefox is already in running... »

    Here's what I'm running:
    Microsoft Windows 7 Service Pack 1, fully updated to 04/10/2012
    New installation of Firefox 11. No add-on enabled following troubleshooting.
    I am a user has administrator rights
    SAMU is disabled.

    For starters, this has happened since Firefox 10 or more. A couple of months now.

    I am able to open Firefox. My modules worked (ABP, Flashblock, ABP Element Hiding Helper, IETAB2, Downthemall, Greasemonkey, extension of 4chan) had no problem. Firefox is defined and has been fixed for the past two years as my default browser.

    But since about 10 or so, maybe Firefox before, if I opened a session of Firefox and any other application attempts to open a session in a new window, I get the Firefox is already running but not responding do not error. »

    I tried to follow the advice of already posted troubleshooting (glance to parent.lock files left [no date], several sessionstore.js [no date] files, create a new user profile, has tried to erase the 'read only' permission in windows 7, but as soon as it is cleared, only read permission back.)

    As a last resort, I deleted the Firefox folder, the directory %APPDATA%/Mozilla in its entirety and then used CCleaner to remove all references to Firefox in the windows registry, and then made a complete re - install, without extensions installed right now.

    I checked the preferences and have the option "open new windows in a new tab" checked. The problem persists without worrying if this option is checked or not. This problem persists in or out of safe mode, even with the new facility.

    Test case:

    All cases:
    Firefox is selected as the default browser for windows 7

    Case 1: Log in to firefox. Use any other program that is trying to open a link to their Web site in a new window browser or the new browser session. "Firefox is already running" error

    Case 2: Open a firefox session. Right click on Firefox in the taskbar. Select 'open in new window '. "Firefox is already running" error

    Case 3: Open a session of firefox. Select the Firefox Menu > new tab > new window. In fact, a new window opens.

    This is the only method of opening a new window in the same browser session or profile that actually works on my system. Attempting to open a browser session from the task bar "open new window dialog" or opening a new window while a current window/session is running will not open firefox in a new window or a new tab in the current session. The "Firefox is already running, but is not responding" error will occur every time.
    

    Make sure that you do not start Firefox with the - No.-remote switch or have defined the MOZ_NO_REMOTE = 1 environment variable (Control Panel > system > advanced > environment variables).

    Almost all the time which is caused by a problem of email provider.  Please contact your provider to set up your account.  It is complex and requires exact accuracy.

  • Photoshop doesn't let me shift-click with the Eraser tool. Help?

    Hi people! My copy of Photoshop CC 2014 doesn't let me shift-click with the tool eraser to erase a straight line with one single click to another (brush and other tools not working). Is this a known bug? Or make me something tilt that I don't know?

    Thank you!

    One way to know is to reset the Eraser tool. If something was off this command he would set it back to default values.

    Here's the text, the example tool, but simply select the Eraser tool and right-click to sound ' icon above the Toolbox.

  • Adobe Muse doesn't let me change the States of thumbnails in a lightbox.

    Muse doesn't let me change the States of thumbnails for my lightbox. The only thing that it is allowing me to do the right now is to change the opacity of each State. I would like to than the 'normal' State of my nail of the thumb to be a solid color, the "Rollover" State to reveal the image that is displayed in the Viewer, the State of "mouse down" to be another solid color and the 'active' State of being of the same color together as a 'normal' State I changed the color, and I even tried to fill it with a real image with a solid color file. Nothing will work - the State remains just to display the main images in the thumbnails. I would appreciate help! I don't understand why it won't work. States work for everything else.

    Hello

    With startup, if you add a picture as a thumbnail then it could appear as hero image.

    We cannot install according to States with the thumbnails of the images, any image or fill added to the would be added as a background image. You can change the image of the active panel, but still we can not install different images with the States.

    Better idea would be to use the composition where you can set up reports for the triggers and the images separate targets.

    Thank you
