I'm unsure as to whether this is an Ubuntu problem or a Firefox problem, but here's what's going on. Whenever I attempt to upload a photo on a website (such as Facebook or Funnyjunk.com), Firefox crashes. The microsecond I click "upload", it's gone.When I restart Firefox, I have the option of restoring my previous session, as normally happens after a FF crash.Is this a documented bug? I don't recall it ever happening on Windows, and I can't seem to find anything about it.
A friend of mine has a little photo-printing shop.He asked me about the possibility of adding an e-commerce application for his customers to upload photos, previous some kind of loggin.Does anybody knows if it exists some open source e-commerce platform which could be usefull for such application?
If i want to upload an image to a website, the file browser for firefox comes up. When I'm uploading images I like to see big thumbnails as a scroll through but I can only see file names and one thumbnail at a time.
I have been using Ubuntu 10.04 for a couple months now and am currently using it with Firefox 3.6.3 and Thunderbird 3.0.4. I was wondering if it was possible to view thumbnails when trying to upload a picture (e.g. to eBay) or adding a picture as an attachment to an email rather than just having a list view and having to click on each picture to get a preview. I have quite a lot of pictures and it becomes a bit time consuming trying to find the right one to upload.
Firefox grays out and doesn't unfreeze until the entire upload is complete.I can't do anything else on the internet while this is happening.This didn't bother me until now, because I need to upload some pretty high quality pictures to Flickr, and it takes about fifteen or twenty minutes to do so.I'd like if the pictures could simply upload in the background while I do other stuff, instead of completely freezing my internet usage in the process.I don't have a problem downloading files quietly in the background not even large files so why can't I upload files without freezing everything up? Is this normal, or is there a fix for this?
I am using ubuntu karmic koala and i have firefox web browser. Whenever I try to upload files in some file hosting sites, my firefox web browser hangs. I think the file hosting site is using some kind of uploader that requires java/javascript.
This has happened multiple times. I'd be running firefox and it would crash for whatever reason. I'd try to restart it and it would tell me that it's "already running as another process."
ps and top show no firefox. killall can't kill it. I found a few forum postings saying to delete the .parentlock file in the firefox directory. That allows me to start it, but all my personalizations and settings are gone. I have to each time create a new profile and copy everything over.
Working with Ubuntu v10.04, Firefox v3.6.3 and No-Script add-on v1.9.9.81, if you click the button "Options" that is in the right-down corner of the browser the X-Server crash but apparently is restarted by the OS immediately. Any other around with the same issue out there? I temporally disable the NoScript, but if someone know how to fix this, please let us know...
firefox almost always crashes when a flash video plays except when firefox is started in terminal, in this case flash becomes slow and the following message appears in terminal:
I'm only relatively new to ubuntu and am having a problem with firefox. There was an update waiting for me this morning to install some dummy package and since I've done that firefox falls down whenever I try to go to a page that requires flash. The screen turns grey and nothing happens.
With my limited knowledge (and inability to use any page that requires flash) I've tried to remove and re-install flash but nothing I do seems to work
My firefox (Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.6) Gecko/20091216 Fedora/3.5.6-1.fc11 Firefox/3.5.6) on Gnome 2.26.3 will randomly crash, without any errors. /var/log/messages & /var/log/Xorg.0.log doesn't show anything that caused any errors. And it doesn't matter on which website(s) I'm busy with, it will just crash.
My PC has:
Intel Pentium(R) Dual-Core E5200 CPU 4GB DDRII Corsair RAM 3x 160GB SATAII HDD Asus Nvidia 8800GT graphics card.
This is on Fedora Core 12 x86 I have disabled the only 3 Firefox plug-ins that I installed yesterday, but this problem has been looming for a long time. Something interesting that I picked up is that Thunderbird will close randomly (very seldom though) as well, so I don't know if it's Firefox specific though.
I have picked up that it happens more often when my PC's memory usage is above 2GB RAM, and memtest86+ didn't indicate any memory problems. If I have less tabs open, it happens less often, but the more tabs I have open, the more often it happens. At the same time, on the same PC, when I'm in Windows XP SP3 (dual boot), I can have many more tabs open as well as Thunderbird, Quickbooks, Photoshop CS3 and some other applications, and it doesn't cash.
A while ago, when I was using Maverick, Firefox started to crash randomly and led to kernel panics.
So I upgraded to Natty (clean install) and Firefox there too crashed.
Then I was getting graphics and make problems.
Today I tried to install Fedora 15. It first boots to a Live desktop that warned me that my hard drive had 65000+ bad sectors. Sixty-five thousand.
So I got a new one. A WD Scorpio Black, 750GB 7200RPM with Advanced Format.
Again I boot into Fedora 15. OK, no bad sectors. I tried to run Disk Utility Self Tests but it constantly crashed. Fedora warns you about this.
In the Live session, I opened Firefox. It also crashed just like back in Ubuntu. Then the screen flashes black and got warnings after warnings that a kernel module has crashed.
So I took out my old Maverick installation CD and first tried a Live session. However, Disk Utility told me that SMART is not supported while on Fedora, it was.
So I tried to install. But soon after that, I got a warning that the installer has crashed because a file copied to the disk did not match the file on CD. Right now I am in the Maverick Live session.
So this just started a few days ago... maybe 7 at the most.
I am working along, and screen goes black, or just freezes... the lights on my laptop start blinking and becomes everything becomes unresponsive.
I have noticed it is usually when I am Using Firefox and Flash content. I have also noticed it happens when using Deluge, but it usually takes 5 minutes to kick in.
I am using firefox at the moment, but I am sure if I load up a ..... video, it will lock up on me again.
Well, that's about it - the firefox and thunderbird packages included on the first batch of official 13.1 updates keep crashing when I try to print a web page or an e-mail. Seamonkey, updated as well, can print as usual.
I keep getting u1conflicts in my Moneydance backup. For example, I am usually doing something in Moneydance daily. However, when I went to open it up yesterday, it didn't save anything from the previous 3 days. The last 3 days worth were u1.conflict. Moreover, this is the only computer that we do the Moneydance transactions on. My other question is about the speed it is taking to upload all my pictures. Granted, I do have A lot of pictures (3000+), but it is taking forever to upload them. When U1 is running, it takes all of the bandwidth. My husband already posted something about limiting the bandwidth problems. What I am wondering though is if there is a way to get all my pictures backed up faster? I have been trying to back them up for about a week now. In 6 hours, it only backed up 115 files of over 3000, and that is using up all of our bandwidth.
I use: Ubuntu 11.04 (with Unity) Chrome (and also tried using Firefox and Opera) My Problem? Today I tried to upload some pictures on Facebook (like I use to) and after choosing them it gets stuck, the browser works, but the pictures don't get uploaded. I tried different browsers and the results were the same. My java package seems to be up-to-date as well as my browser (Chrome). I don't really know what is going wrong.
How does one transfer music from a MTP device to the Music folder? Or upload music from the MTP device to programs such as RhythmBox, Banshee, etc.? I have tried using Gnomad2 to no avail and I have exhausted my self searching the online Ubuntu community forums and doing searches on search engines regarding this subject reading through countless article of users trying to get Linux system to recognize or mount their MTP devices.
My system does recognize and mount my MTP device (Creative Zen Micro) and the Music Players (RhythmBox, Banshee, Amarok, VLC, XBMC) all access and play the music without any problems. I just want to transfer or copy the music from my MTP device to my system.
I pushed the browse button and selected the first picture, but I was unable to select all of the pictures. This happened again on an email attempt to do the same thing.
In the gnome environment, I am able to select the first then hold down shift, and select the last pic and all the ones in between will be selected. I expected this behavior when selecting for upload, but it didn't happen. I had to select each one, one at a time and upload each one.
I tried making a folder to upload the whole folder and that would not select at all.
Why is ubuntuone constantly uploading something at a rate of 10Kbps? I am not even logged into it.I have deleted it completely just to stop the constant 10Kbps uploading, but still, I am interested to know what was being transmitted.
I successfully connected to my office's (Windows) servers, so usually I can browse for files via Places. But when I want to upload a file for example as an attachment in gmail, after clicking the browse button, only the local drives and folders are visible in the file upload window. Is there some way to tell my browsers (Chromium and FF) there are more drives in life? (I'm using Maverick Meerkat). (And I'm not sure the problem is my browser or my settings or anything else..)
I have set up a very basic apache server to host my own website (have not set up sql or database or php yet) and I am trying to find out how to fpt or copy my website. I am creating the site in windows and need to know how to transfer it to the server, preferably into the /var/www folder directly.
We are having this problem when a user tries to upload a file to the Red Hat 4.0 server via SSH (sftp). When the user tries to write the file it returns this error:
The error doesn't give you any description for some reason. When I try to upload the same file with root user there is no error and it works perfectly, but with other users it returns this error. I first suspected that it is a permissions problem, but then the same error is there even if I open up all permissions wide for the directory that the file is copied into (set permissions to 'drwxrwxrwx').
I'm having serious problems uploading pictures and videos to Flickr and Facebook (only two sites I'm using, and I'm on Firefox) I've never had any problems uploading anything prior to installing Ubuntu. I already tried the FireUploader as well, but no matter what I try the uploads just run and run until they eventually time out. Is there any trick I can maybe use here to be able to upload some pictures again, finally?!
Whenever I used to start up a window would open asking me for my password. No problem. One day I clicked cancel and it has never come up again, when i start up the ubuntu one logo switches to updating folders for a bit and then it switches to the default but with a little red x on it. I haven't been able to get it to connect. I can place files into the folder on my computer but they don't show in my ubuntu one account folder also. Also I heard, that soon we'd be able to upload folders instead of file by file is this true?
