Computer says server not found when trying to download leapfrog application

firefox has nothing to do with the operating system
if could be a problem of the support browser or the win xp which is no longer supported by Microsoft developing problems
I use firefox exclusively yet when I click on firefox , I see that google comes up then the firefox browser opens so it that was a problem for me ,I would be suspecting a problem in the google application

Are you using your school's computer-network, or your employer's computer-network?

If so, then that network may _deliberately_ be blocking access to "time-wasting" sites, such as YouTube and eBay and Twitter and Amazon.

As we all know, when the Mozilla Firefox is installed, another version called "Mozilla Firefox (Safe Mode)" is installed. But most firefox users don't know it's importance and would consider it to run in Safe Mode. This feature is also used to Change the Firefox settings/preferences.

If you've messed up with the security settings, add-ons, etc..etc.. we have to reset all the settings from the Mozilla Firefox (Safe Mode). To do this, follow the steps below:

For windows xp

Click "Start" then "Run" and type in "firefox -safe-mode" [Note: one space after "firefox"] and press enter. A new window will open up (shown below)

You can select whatever you want to restore, but if you only need to reset the changes you've made to the "Preferences", then simply select (check mark) the "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" and click "Make Changes and Restart". Once you click the "Make Changes and Restart", firefox will restart.

If your operating system isn't Windows XP, then the commands are as follows:

Windows Vista and Windows 7

Click "Start" then "Start Search" and type in "firefox.exe -safe-mode" (one space after firefox.exe).

Mac OS

Open, "Application" and "Utilities" then "Terminal" and type in "/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox -safe-mode" and press enter"

Linux

Open "Terminal" then type in "/path/to/firefox/firefox -safe-mode"

Good luck.

Have you plugged this into your computer with an ethernet cable, you need to use a cable when you set it up, after you have completed the setup, you should be able to connect through the browser wirelessly

yahoo!7 messenger is unable to download files needed for installation. Please

check firewall settings and retry installation.
I found the answer its so simple, The problem has nothing to do with firewalls.

Yahoo instant messenger (yim) needs internet explorer 7 or above version to

enable yim to operate properly with the current yim versions. If you have an

earlier version of IE (I was using IE 6 coz I always use firefox and did not

have windows update enabled coz I did not want my windows operating system to be

revealed as it was copied and theredore not legit) So I disabled windows update

and kept using firefox, but even if you never use internet explorer, yim still

needs internet explorer 7 to operate without these errors shown above. I tried

to fix it for weeks thinking it was fiewall or such, but it just needed IE 7 so

I downloaded it here:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-au/download/internet-explorer-7-details.aspx
and even tho it says its for a windows server it still worked on my windows

XP pro 64bit and now yim is working properly, allowing multiple copies of

contacts etc, no problems at all now. I also downloaded firefox version 35,

which helps yim too coz its yahoo preferred.

You need to go to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile name> (Windows Vista and Windows 7) and delete the addon, it usually has its own folder depending on the addon. For Windows 2000/XP, it would be C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile name>. If all else fails, delete the entire Mozilla folder from the Roaming folder (Windows Vista/Windows 7) or the Application Data folder (Windows 2000/Windows XP).

Go to Start>Control Panel > Add or remove programs remove all the things related yahoo ( Yahoo toolbar, Yahoo mail advisor, Yahoo installer, Yahoo browser plus etc.) Try download and install then....If still same try download offline installer http://download.yimg.com/ycs/msg/dl/msgr10/us/b4/msgr10us.exe
if still you are having difficulty download old version like Yahoo messenger 8 or Yahoo messenger 7
I think it will help you..Further result please let us know... Thanks for being with Fixya...Good Luck

If you are using Firefox, they should be going to my documents/downloads

You can change this by setting a default directory, or telling firefox to ask you where to save everytime you save. The options can be changed by clicking Tools -> Options. The settings are right on the main panel.
