UPDATE AND THE BROWSER SETTINGS

Recently, I contacted a technician Microsoft issues an update on the MSE. In his letter, he said that the issue could be linked to the wrong browser settings I want to know is IE anyway related to updates on the updates of Windows and other programs?

Yes. When the updates are downloaded/installed manually or automatically [1] [2], connection Internet Explorer is used "behind the scenes."

This applies to Microsoft Security Essentials automatically updated, as well. [3]

[3] if Microsoft Security Essentials is installed and working properly, it will automatically be updated at least once every 24 hours.

    Try to upgrade to 9.3.2 but get "cannot install update and the error has occurred" if I am on WIFI or via iTunes. Someone else?

  • a sentence installed updated software, "OSx recovery software update" and the overview application still refuses to work however I try to launch it. He started and left immediately after recovery immediately, she leaves, she shows also a no document error

    I just installed new updates of software, "OSx recovery software update" and the Preview app still refuses to work, however I try to launch it. He launched and immediately closed unexpectedly after unexpectedly WARNING recovery he immediately left again, it also shows a notice of error document

    Please launch the Console application in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Step 1

    For this step, the title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

    in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    List of newspapers seen ▹ display

    in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

    In the upper right corner of the Console window, there is a search box to filter. Enter the name of the application crashed or process. For example, if Safari has crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes).

    Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages since the time of the last fall, as appropriate. Copy to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.

    The journal contains a large amount of information, almost everything that is not relevant to solve a particular problem. When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

    Please don't dump blindly thousands of lines in the journal in this discussion.

    Please do not post screenshots of log messages - text poster.

    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

    Step 2

    In the Console window, select

    DIAGNOSIS AND diagnostic USE information reports ▹ user

    (not diagnose them and use Messages) in the list of logs on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points downwards. You will see a list of reports of incidents. The name of each report begins with the name of the process and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report on the process in question. The content of the report is displayed at right. Allows you to copy and paste to validate all of the content, text, not a screenshot.

    I know that the report is long, perhaps several hundred lines. Please report all this anyway.

    If you don't see any report, but you know, he had an accident, you have chosen diagnostic and using the list of Log Messages. INFORMATION on the USE of DIAGNOSTIC AND choose instead.

    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you change the UUID ' anonymous, ' a long string of letters, numbers and dashes in the header of the report, if it is present (it cannot be). "

    Please do not post other types of diagnostic report - they are very long and rarely useful.

    When you post the journal excerpt or the accident report, you might see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

  • How to lock the browser settings? I need to deploy the latest version of firefox for the company

    I work for a company users 4000 + and I was tasked to deploy the latest version of Firefox. I need to lock the browser, home page of facility settings, disable auto updates, rename (for example Mozilla Firefox browser provided by companyname). I was able to do with firefox 3.x, but I can't seem to make it work with the version 7.0.1

    The greprefs file no longer exists with the change using a ZIP archive omni.jar and you place a local file - settings.js in the defaults\pref instead.

    You can use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock the prefs or specify default values.

    Place a local file - settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you will also find the channel - prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg file.

    pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
    pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift

  • Update and global storage settings

    First of all, my apologies for the ridiculously long user name. I played the keyboard in back of weeks of frustration when recording and were not in position to change it by updating my Adobe a/c, because it won't let me put an address etc. that is not in the USA (I'm in Australia).

    I tried to find an answer to my question in reading the other messages. There seems to be some very similar problems with the last update for Flash Player, but because of my lack of expertise in this area, I will describe my specific problem. So, here it is:

    I was locked out the function edit of my website host (wix.com) account because it forces me to update my Flash Player settings: http://support.wix.com/index.php/Editor_Doesnt_Open

    I downloaded the latest version of Flash a half dozen times now and installed. Installation always seems to be fine and no error message is high. The problem is that the updated version does not appear to have himself installed in one of my web browsers.

    The Flash Player Settings Manager (access c /-link above) is not even display in Firefox. It appears in Google Chrome (which is up to date and my default browser), IE and Safari.

    In order to access the edit to my a/c host function, I need (in the global storage settings) to have 100 KB on disk space slider, and also the check box for «Allow third-party content flash...» »

    The box allow not itself be checked in one of the browsers above, even if I can move the slider to 100 KB. If, however, I leave the page and return later, the cursor is always back to 'None' (I don't know if this is normal or not?).

    I have AVG anti-virus, which I tried to temporarily disable all by installing the update. I also rebooted my computer after installation, etc. but still no luck. Hopefully someone who has an idea can get back to me. Thank you.

    Hi thanks. Yes, the settings should stay that way until you change them.

    Take a look at this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/732444?tstart=0    

    See if that helps.

  • Google Maps does not open since we have updated Firefox, the browser crashes. (Windows 7) Load in Solution Explorer.

    When we try to open Google Maps with Firefox, it blocks our browser. Please close and try again. Problem started after we updated our Firefox. Working with Windows 7.

    Please upgrade to the latest version of Firefox:

    And please:

  • No Gecko browsers load Internet sites not based on Windows 7, but they do it on Windows XP. Also Firefox process does not close and the browser can not shut down or restart.

    I tried to install firefox 32 and no site would charge and also the process did not close. I tried to disable ipv6 turning my router settings, so there is that the ipv4 connection and also disabled dns prefetching and define the network to no proxy settings. I uninstalled firefox and tried to reintsall after completely removing everything leaving no trace in appdate local and roaming records and using ccleaner and IObit Uninstaller. Then Firefox would work for a little bit and load Google Facebook and Youtube, when I tried it, but it was very slow, reclassification to the installation of Firefox on my Windows XP that has been improved from 30 to 32. Yet once uninstalled and I tried older versions of Firefox, K Meleon Lunascape and same herd. Flock has worked, but he will soon be unsupported. Finally, when Firefox loaded the CPU usage went from 8% to more than 30% of the Web pages and then loading sites after loading icon appeared. I have other browsers work fine. Right now I use Opera.

    I managed to fix it myself. I did a scan to scan with malwarebytes antimalware pro I had and adwcleaner threat and quarantined everything that the first softare found and cleaned with the second, everything appeared to be remnants of old unisntalled programs. I then had to remove the remains of appdata kmeleon and firefox profiles. I only left the firefox of the records that are the browser files I wanted to keep it light. I then checked for settings. I had windows desfault settings check if I have doen not matter what settings with avg pc tuneup 2011, Tweak Me! UWT 2.2 and used TCP Optimizer to bring the network settings by default by windows to 9000 kbps of download speed (after that I did a network speed test). Now firefox is super fast and xcloses normally.

  • Why is my Firefox background rose after update and the pallets in the options contain ONLY shades of pink?

    After the update by 12.0, my browser changed to rose. Try to change the colors of return (after reading the forum posts), I discovered that the pallets were entirely pink.

    I start Firefox in safe mode and the rose disappeared, suggesting that one of my modules was to blame, but after disabling all the one at a time (except for the theme by default.. .the one I have) the rose remained.

  • iPad Pro stuck on the updating of the iCloud settings

    I just had an iPad Pro, all set up and restored from a backup in iTunes. Now, he says "updating settings iCloud" and has been slain on this screen for more than 30 minutes.

    I tried the home and power buttons and restore the factory settings, but whenever I get to this screen it is still blocked.

    Any suggestions? Should I wait it out and see what happens?

    If your previous DVICE had a lot of documents, videos and iCloud Libray Photo activated, it will take some time for the new device yo restore all files. Leave it alone for a while (during the night) or even longer if you have a fairly large library of Photos.

    The applications are not part of the backup. They must be re-uploaded, so if you have a lot, which will also take some time.

  • update of the browser?

    I'm confused - I tried to open youtube and he said that my browser was not more and I should update. I went to apple - about this mac , and it says that I have Mac OS X version 10.7.5. I selected the software updates, and he said that it was up to date. I'm not strictly speaking of mind so now I'm not sure what to do next. I know there is a new OS - El Capitan - I tried to read up on this, but the the system requirements state that you must have Snow Leopard or later to upgrade - how do I know if I have Snow Leopard. Please can someone explain this simply. Thank you

    He said are you aware that you have the latest version of this OS. There were four since. El Capitan is the last. 10.7 comes later than Snow Leopard, then Yes you can upgrade.

    As always, back first.
