Since the upgrade to Internet Explorer 8

Have a 32-bit Pc, native Vista.  Everything worked ok UNTIL the upgrade to IE8. Then:

Flash does not work. (Started using Firefox)
Unable to save out of photo accessories (there was an error in saving a or more attachment. If please check your free disk space and try again.) Disc is not anywhere near complete.
Cannot open another e-mail attachment. PDF, pps, etc.
Cannot download and install programs.  RUN: Past by the dowload process doesn't work, cannot find the .exe. file any where.  SAVE: get to the COPY area & dies.

Is there something wrong with the system of the COPY function?

All Web Pages are BIGGER.  If I go to the same page in Firefox, everything is crushed and small.

8/7
Restored to EI7, can now download and install applications.  Will try to make a new user & try to resolve the problem of mail.  Thanks JohnD

Well, I wiped the hard drive and reinstalled windows.  So far so good, everything works smoothly.  What a lot of work!

  • Recycle bin empties automatically - after the upgrade to Internet Explorer 9

    This started after I upgraded to Internet Explorer 9.  Remove everything that goes in the trash, and then it is empty the next time I start my computer.  How can I change back so that I have to empty the trash?

    You can choose to ignore the Recycle Bin when you delete something. This option is not recommended for most users.

    1. On the desktop, right-click the Recycle Bin, and then click Properties.

    2. Recycle Bin location, click the location of the Recycle Bin to change (probably your C drive).

    3. Click on don't move files to the Recycle Bin. Delete the files when they are immediately deleted, and then click OK.

  • Since I've upgraded to internet explorer 8, he can't see that I'm connected to the internet

    I have upgraded to internet explorer 8, but now unable to connect to the internet using my wireless connection.  Wireless has excellent resistance and worked very well with the previous IE.  I tried to reinstall and the same problem occurs.  It does not seem to accept as a connection.  The computer is windows xp. I put internet explore in the firewall exceptions.  When I open the browser, I get the connection to diagnose button and when I push it says an error has occurred because it is not able to diagnose the problem, but it does not say what is the error or how to fix it.  Is it possible to go beyond that, or I'm stuck using an earlier version of Internet Explorer?

    Thank you

    Hi Grego,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.
     
    You are not able to play songs torn on Windows Media Player 12. I'll be happy to help you with this problem.

    Method 1: I suggest you follow the steps to run the troubleshooter from the link and if it helps.
    Open the troubleshooting Windows Media Player settings Troubleshooter
     
    Open the troubleshooter in the Windows Media Player library
     
    Method 2: If the problem persists, I suggest you delete the database of Windows Media Player. To do this, follow these steps:
    (a) output Windows Media Player.
    (b) click Start, run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player, and then click OK.
    (c), select all the files in the folder and then click on Delete on the file menu.
    Note: You don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.
    (d) restart Windows Media Player.
    Note: Windows Media Player automatically rebuilds the database.
    If this does not resolve the problem, disable the Windows Media Player database cache files. To do this, follow these steps:
    (a) output Windows Media Player.
    (b) click Start, click Run, type % LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft, and then click OK.
    (c) select the folder Media Player and then click on Delete on the file menu.
    (d) restart Windows Media Player.
    I hope this helps. Try the above steps and get back to us for more assistance and with the requested details, if the problem is not resolved.

    Try each of them in order. A test to see if the computer works properly:

    1. Reset the PRAM
    2. Reset the controller (SMC) system management
    3. Start the computer in Safe Mode, and then restart normally. It's slower than a standard home.
    4. Repair the disk by booting to the recovery HD immediately after the chime press keys control and R that the Utility Menu appears. Choose disk utility and click on the button continue. Select the withdrawal (usually Macintosh HD) volume entry of the list to one side.  Click first aid button in the toolbar. Hold the button brings up. Disk utility and return in the Utility Menu. Restart the computer from the Apple Menu.

  • Since the upgrade to 4.0.1 I have lost Norton toolbar.

    Since the upgrade to 4.0.1 I have lost Norton toolbar with secure identity, I spoke with Norton and they say I need to revert to a previous version because they have no solution. However, this problem is on my laptop XP Pro only. My office has the same version and everything works OK. I have since checked troubleshooting info and noticed that norton extensions are listed on both computers with ID but one office is registered as activated. This problem can be solved on my laptop to find norton (who works on another PC) or have I not other choices reloading to an earlier version of firefox and if yes what is the easest wy for this with no loss of bookmarks etc.

    The person you spoke with at Norton is not always conscious, but they are due to release a fix sometime this week - http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Norton-product-compatibility-with-Firefox-Updates/m-p/443808

    Waiting for this update you can get Firefox 4.0 http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/4.0/win32/ - you must select the folder for your language, then you can download and run the installer for Firefox 4.0

  • Since the upgrade to El field, when I launched mail it says library update and then seems to hang

    10.11 running on an iMac (2007)

    Since the upgrade, I can't start mail, it comes up with a dialog box saying "upgrade your library", but it just hangs, the progress bar does not move after hours.

    I force move to get rid of it.

    Any advice?  Thank you

    apologies, just found a great response since last October and it worked fine - in case someone has it, you go to system preferences, disable the iCloud account in Internet accounts, mail to launch that will work, and then recheck iCloud.

  • Since the upgrade to 11.0.11, document relative cross links when viewing the PDF in the browser don't work is no longer

    I maintain a web application that contains hundreds of PDF files that contain relative links, among other documents.  The application relies on getting the Base URL of the Adobe Acrobat web plug-in to navigate between different PDF documents while viewing in the browser (the links do not work in a standalone Acrobat window).  Since the upgrade to Adobe Acrobat Reader 11.0.11 last week, these links no longer function (I checked they still work in 11.0.10).  I also have the same problem in Acrobat 10.1.14 (worked in 10.1.13).  I have tried all the other versions.  It seems that updates broke the functionality of our application invoked for the past ten years.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    It is a change that seems to work for Adobe Reader 11.0.11 but I can't find any documentation / web post of what he does.

    One would have details of these entries to registry FeatureState?

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FeatureState

    3836776 = DWORD: 00000000

    I also have Internet< display="" in="" read="" mode="" by="" default="" disabled="">

    HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\AVGeneral

    bBrowserDisplayInReadMode = DWORD: 00000000

    For 10.1.14 I found that follows would work, but same as above no documentation or approval from Adobe.

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\FeatureState

    3836774 = DWORD: 00000000

  • Since the upgrade to El Capitan, my Mac is VERY slow.

    I just have to upgrade Yosemite El Capitan.  Since the upgrade, my Mac is VERY slow.  Spend a lot of time with the spinning beach ball, and slow to change application.

  • Since the upgrade of my new tab does not work, I press on the + icon and nothing

    Since the upgrade of my new tab does not work, I press on the + icon and nothing

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
    • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
      (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

    I think this story says it all. The most problematic sites are mainly news sites

    It has 1-40 or 45 new photos which can be browsed through by clicking on the arrows. Before the update without problem.

    Problem solved, if only temporarily.

    With the Mountain Lion, I'd end up usually with 15 to 20 cookies.  Since the upgrade to El Capitan, and using the same sites, I find myself with cookies from 80-90.  The cookie setting is "allow Web sites I visit."  I was wondering if I need to change something or if I missed a setting.  (I've been clear all cookies after each session.)

    You always have the same "ad blocker" installed

    extension or add-ons?

    I'm afraid that this is the best you can do. Or turn off all cookies
