Why Firefox 30 taking so LONG to install?

I tried to reinstall Firefox from scratch on this machine. However, it takes so long to install I've abandoned now.

What I was doing wrong and what can I do to put it right? It should not take FOUR HOURS to do this even to halfway through the installation, of course? At one point, I wondered if it was just a loop around between download and install. I like to run two browsers so I can test if the websites showing down in a work in the other. My choices are Firefox and Chrome. Well, they have so far been because Firefox does settle it timely.

I'm typing this in Chrome and using Windows 7 on a NetBook compatible Windows 8 years. I'm not ready to install Windows 8, so I hope that there is another option. I can not even the thing of widget troubleshooting information in work then I or the machine is really having a bad day.

    Hi, I am Ganesh, I tried to installed the application using creative cloud. But seems it's taking too long to install the application and it is hit. After the installation of 42%. Still, I tried to restart my computer and re-install the application. But it is keep taking so long time and struck at the end of the installation of 42%.

    If the installation process is stalled at 42 percent with no possibility of error, there is a problem with the zipped file to Extraction of downloaded in the Temp folder.

    As a fundamental step. Leave the creative Cloud desktop application.

    Delete the contents of the Temp folder:

    Optional: it will be ideal to install software like Winrar, WinZip or 7-zip,., etc.

    Please press Windows + R and you will get a command window run, get hit and type %temp%.

    Delete all the content inside the temp folder.



    Then try again to install application InDesign CC again.

    Just in case, if you are still having the same issue.

    Creative application cloud thus released, do not close it.

    Open the Temp folder, then search for the CC InDesign installation file and copy it to the desktop computer.

    Then leave Creative Cloud application and try to install.

  • Why read XML taking so long?

    The 'answer' is perhaps that "XML is not intended for this purpose... "but here is the situation:

    I'm parsing of a directory tree and creating a table of clusters, one for each folder in the tree.  To save it to the 'user-friendly' on the disc format, I chose XML, in part because "it's here", because it is a 'standard', and part because he "embarked" in the file enough data LabVIEW structure it is easy, in principle, to recover the data in the same shape as I initially wrote (i.e. in the form of clusters with a specified TypeDef table).

    I did my routine to a directory with about 2700 folders tree.  It took 14 seconds to analyze the tree, about 0.1 second to write to the file (1.7 MB) XML, but over a minute and a half to read it back in and recover the original data.  Incidentally, I made a comparison between the "written data" and "read data", and all the 25 000 elements (the cluster had 9 elements) are the same, so at least to read and write XML "works."

    I'm always surprised at the 800-fold difference between reading and writing.  I suspect that this shift is not linear with the "size of the problem", since in the beginning, I tried to do this with a larger painting of 4900 what took 0.25 seconds to write, but I "gave up" after what seemed to be too long to wait (sorry, it's so no scientist, but I think it was 3-4 minutes at least).  However, now that I see that there is a difference of 800-fold for my previous example, I'll wait at least five minutes (800 * 0.25 sec = 200 s, 5 min = 300 sec)... (time goes away...)

    Patience rewarded - it took 322 seconds, which is about 1200 times slower (not to criticize my calculations - I'm rounding when I report time, but use the millisecond values when I calculate ratios...).  So the more you do it, it gets the slower.

    Hmm - we are going to prove by doing a small folder.  How about one with only 85 files?  Which takes 21 msec to write and 102 msec to read, a factor of 5 only!  Wow, this is certainly not a linear growth.

    What happens here?  Is there a problem with the analysis of large XML files?  [I must point out that I use a simple XML File reading (array) for the table (of which will prove be cluster), and then in a for loop do a "Unflatten from XML' to recover the cluster.]  I'm guessing that the loop is to behave linearly, as all clusters are (with the exception of their content) identical, then the part "polynomial time" should be "reading of XML File (array).

    Not sure why this should be the case.  It would seem, to me, that since LabVIEW tables are always "identical elements", read a file with 1000 'elements' and turn it into an array of 1000 elements should take approximately 10 times longer than that for an array of 100 elements, unless there is something that is extremely inefficient.  Is this something that can withstand being examined and possibly optimized?

    PS - was curious enough to do more tests.  I started with a 'Master Data Set' of 4906 records, then dealt with 'nested subsets' (which is a subset of the master, a subset of the subset, etc.) to try to compare of"apples with apples" (on a PC, of course).  My samples were 20, 210, 2736 and 4906 records.  The write speed of files has been between 10 K and 24K Records/sec on this beach, which is about nearly linearly with size.  However, a similar measure for the reading of records varies between 3K (for all 20 items) and 15 (for all), reducing the size has increased.  I traced a field of logarithmic data and got a slope of 0.1 for writing (a slope of 0 means speed is linear with the number of cases), but a slope of-0,95 for playback)


  • Why delete files taking so long in Windows 7?

    I am running windows 7 64 bit on a high-end computer mind nine 8 GB RAm still deleting files takes forever. for example I'm deleting 258 files in a directory as we speak - total size of all files in 458kb (Yes half a megabyte) and windows tells me that it'll take 8 minutes to do! Surely, it should be almost instant? How can I speed up the deletions of files?

    copy of the files also takes an age and makes the system almost unusable.

    Philippe

    It seems slow.  If you are used to use disks formatted FAT32, the stronger NTFS takes significantly longer because it does synchronously things that FAT32 things are started and left under the assumption that they will still complete successfully; and unfortunately that can sometimes cause problems.

    In addition to the suggestion of Ken Blake to find malware, I suggest that you check the installed utilities.  If you have one installed real-time backup programs, some of them can do a real job on the performance.  Try to start safe mode and try some of your slow deletions or copies.  Concerning copies, your antivirus program may cause a big performance hit because they verify each file as it is copied.  Temporarily disable your antivirus can greatly improve speed in many cases.  One thing you might want to try is DEFRAG if you haven't done so recently.  Modern versions of Windows generally do this automatically, but sometimes doing a DEFRAG manual can help.

    Good luck.  I hope this helps.

  • Why FireFox 11 can't see newly installed Java 1.6.0_31 on Mac?

    I used the software update on my OSX Lion Mac upgrade to Java 1.6.0_31 - b04-413. The update showed as much success and this is the version specified in the Java preferences utility.

  • Why vdr stop taking so long?

    When to stop the VM console says linux VDR "Waiting for VMware Data Recovery stop" about 15 times.  It takes about 20 minutes for that one VM stop.  VDR works as I did a backup and restore.  I have something misconfigured to cause the VM to take so long to stop?  Where would I look?

    Stop stop process vmware-tools (and network interfaces) before stopping datarecovery.

    DataRecovery process cannot properly stop without network interface.

    Transition from /etc/rc0.d/K08vmware-tools to /etc/rc0.d/K91vmware-tools and /etc/rc6.d/K08vmware-tools to /etc/rc6.d/K91vmware-tools should solve this problem.

    Please let me know why partiton Exchange taking so long? here a few times it takes 30 minutes and some time 10-15 minutes.



    I was under the impression that the exchange of partion is nothing but the update of the data dictionary. Please clarify my doubt?




    Thank you
    Mike

    If you don't have a comprehensive index on the partition table, but only local indexes, then more of the optimal approach is:

    (1) create the staging table (similar to the partition table)

    (2) double local indexes on the table to partition in the staging table

    (3) an exchange of partition table using alter table... swap partition.. with table... including the index without validation

    Such an exchange of partition must be second - as sole owner of the materials are exchanged and no treatment/audit/additional validation isn't required.

    Of course, the assumption is that the intermediate table has valid data for the content of the partition it will replace.

    Why does take so long to load from the time wherever I power up until it takes to get to the login screen? help taking too long

    You should take a look at your startup programs and decide what is really necessary and what is nothing more than useless clutter. There is nothing wrong with the startup programs, some may be really useful or even necessary for your personal needs. But keep in mind that many programs build to start when you start the computer and that most of them must not start when the computer starts, all they do is slow down your boot time and clutter of things when you're trying to solve problems, and some are downright harmful!

    I mean, have you really need things like real Planner and Gadwin Print Screen running all the time? These programs will run very well, even if they are not started automatically every time that you start the computer. Go to these programs and change/disable their boot option. Some may be difficult to kill for public assistance services can be useful when you try to control startup programs. Try CodeStuff Starter, it's safe and easy to use, I think you'll like it, download it here:

    http://CodeStuff.tripod.com/products_starter.html>

    Use AutoRuns to check axis start, Richard:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx>

    Use Cclenar-> tools-> start

    http://www.CCleaner.com/download/builds.aspx>

    I can't tell you what to keep, startup items it is a personal preference, but pretty well all the startup items indicated by CodeStuff Starter are safe to disable, and changes are easy to reverse if you change your mind. Searches for items it shows you and decide whether or not these things are really useful or necessary. Some programs will be started at startup without your knowledge and over time, that list can expand to include useless parasites, part of good computer maintenance includes regular control of these startup items and the removal of the unnecessary.

    Suggest that you first spread malware as the cause of the problem by following these steps:

    I. - delete your temporary files

    Clean the system (compensation to all temp/tmp folders and included all the content offline, the tif browser, delete the cookies of compensation.)

    Do a disk cleanup. Click the Start button. in the search box, type disk cleanupand then in the list of results, click Disk Cleanup. Better and easier to use - ccleaner.

    Download the basic version (slim) via

    http://www.Piriform.com/CCleaner/builds>

    The basic version (slim) does not contain the toolbar disgusted

    DO NOT USE ANY cleaning of the advanced options. DO NOT TOUCH THE REGISTRY OR TOOLS. At least not for now.

    Reset

    II. - have your system scanned as a result of security/antivirus installed.

    III. - download, install, update and run both of these tools to a-squared free scans:

  • I downloaded the new version, but firefox says always that I must update - why, and if there's a step 'install' miss me why are there no instructions on how to do?

    Why Firefox didn't insist that I still use version 3. It doesn't matter when I downloaded faithfully new versions when he tells me to do so-recently version 8. whatever (today). If "downloading" is not enough and there is also a stage of 'install', I still find anywhere in Firefox that tells me how to do. I restarted my computer, but this does not seem to make a difference. He always tells me that I use an outdated version that soon is not supported.

    There are 2 ways to update 1) using the built-in update function and 2) download an install version complete.

    Let's do #2 for now. Go to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ and download the exe on your desktop. Closing Firefox. Run the installation program that you downloaded to your desktop. Open Firefox. If you always said you run the 3.6.24 version, your user agent can be spoiled. If this is the case do the following:

    Enter about: config in the URL bar and press ENTER.

    If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access this page.

    Filter = general.useragent.

    The preferences that are bold, one line at a time, right-click and select Reset.

    Then restart Firefox
