Internet Browser Issues

For CTI Navigator Web to be able to provide all of the functions of an MLS system inside your Internet browser, the browser itself must be fully functional, and the Microsoft Silverlight plug-in must be properly installed and enabled in the browser.  Also, other programs and settings must not interfere with Navigator's operations. Things that could interfere include damaged website files saved in your browser's history, corrupted Silverlight files, corrupted or incompatible browser files, pop-up blockers, or incompatible Internet browsing security settings. 

See the table below for some general diagnostic and corrective guidelines. Then scroll to the Topic Index below the table, select your browser, and click on the appropriate topic for your browser to go directly to information relevant to that topic.

Internet Explorer Issues

Delete Browsing History

If returning to a previously visited website (such as CTI Navigator Web) fails or new entries at a website do not function properly, the problem could be a corrupted file in the browser's history. These files are saved as temporary Internet files for convenience (to improve browsing speed and to save having to type the same information over and over), and can all be deleted. (See also note 3 below if CTI Navigator Web fails to display the sign-in screen.)

To automatically delete Internet Explorer's browsing history: (for other browsers, see the index at the top of this web page)

  1. Open Internet Options (in Windows Control Panel; or in IE under Tools; or click the Safety icon)
  2. Under the General tab, click the Delete button in the Browsing History section
  3. Un-check "Preserve Favorites Website Data"
  4. Check all other boxes (or, at a minimum, check Temporary Internet Files, and Cookies)
  5. Click the Delete button. This could take awhile if you have a lot of files and history stored
  6. After deletion completes, click OK to close the Internet Options window. 

Note 1

If using the delete button in the Internet Options Browsing history (as described above) does not resolve the problem, you can manually delete Temporary Internet Files as follows: 

  1. Open Internet Options (or see the note 2 below) 
  2. Under the General tab, click the Settings button in the Browsing History section 
  3. Click the View Files button 
  4. Highlight the Temporary Internet Files folder
  5. Click Edit > Select All > Delete.

Note 2. You also can browse in Windows Explorer to the Temporary Internet Files folder and delete its files. Usually this folder is under C:\Documents and Settings\{Your Name}\ Local Settings\ . 

Reset IE. If your Internet Explorer has become unstable (repeatedly shuts itself down) or fails to function properly even after deleting temporary files (described above), you can reset the browser.  A Reset will delete all settings that have changed since Internet Explorer was first installed, including browsing history. See the Reset Internet Explorer to defaults section below for instructions to reset IE. 

Note 3: If the website fails to display the sign-in screen for CTI Navigator Web, ensure that your browser's history has been cleared (select for your browser in the index at the top of this web page) and that Silverlight is properly installed and enabled to run in your browser (select for your browser in the index at the top of this web page). For detail instructions on installing and fixing Silverlight, click "Fix Silverlight Issues" in the index (or in the Related Articles).

Web-Links or Virtual Tour Links

When web-links or Virtual Tour web pages from CTI Navigator do not display in your Internet browser and do not display an error message, it usually is because a pop-up-blocker is preventing the display. To unblock the display, configure or disable your pop-up-blocker for the web address of the web link or virtual tour. For instructions on managing pop-up blockers, see "Disable or Configure Common Pop-Up Blockers or Remove Add-on Toolbars" in the related articles at the end of this web page. See the section below on this web page for how to allow desired Pop-Ups

If an error message displays when you click on a Web-Link, see the "Display Web Links" section below; or select that error message in the Errors section of this webpage, or select that error message on CTI's Instructions to Fix Errors webpage to see instructions specific to that error.

Display Allowed Pop-ups

Your browser can be set to display pop-ups that appear as a result of you clicking on a link or button, or automatic pop-ups from trusted sites in either a new Window or in a new Tab. The default setting normally is to open in a new Window.  

To specify how to display allowed pop-ups in Internet Explorer, click Internet Options. On the General tab, click the Settings button in the Tab section ("Change how web pages are displayed in tabs"). Then check your preference under "When a pop-up is encountered". The default is "Always open pop-ups in a new window." There is a button you can click to "Restore defaults." 

Display Web Links

Sometimes Internet Explorer fails to open a new Tab or new Window in which to display a linked website. An error may or may not display. This can be caused by missing or corrupted registration of some Internet Explorer system libraries (dll files) - especially in Windows 7.  

To re-register the original Internet Explorer (IE) files from Microsoft, close all browser pages and click on the link below appropriate for your version of Windows and your version of Internet Explorer. 

In Windows Vista or Windows 7, first save the file to your computer. Then right-click on any ".bat" file or any "cmd" file after unzipping, and choose "Run as Administrator." 

In Windows XP, you can open/run or save the file. Then unzip the file and double-click on any cmd file or any .bat file.

Close the black screen after the file runs. 

If this does not resolve the problem, follow the appropriate instructions below to reset your version of Internet Explorer . This should also reset Internet connectivity components in Windows, regardless of which browser is set as the default. (See the warning note before re-setting Internet Explorer.)

Website Compatibility 

When Internet Explorer 8, 9, or 10 does not properly display web pages or HTML links, you can set it to allow content designed for previous versions by using the "Compatibility View" as follows:

  1. Open Internet Explorer
  2. Click on Tools at the top (or in IE-9 or 10 click )
  3. Select "Compatibility View Settings" (displayed below)

Active X Filtering

If your computer is using Internet Explorer 9 or 10 and CTI Navigator Web's sign-in screen fails to open, is blank, or repeatedly prompts to download Silverlight, or Navigator Web opens but the frame menu items are not visible, your browser may be set to "filter" (block) ActiveX controls. Active filtering is indicated by the icon in the address bar. 

To set Internet Explorer 9 or 10 not to filter ActiveX controls such as used by Silverlight on the CTI Navigator website for your MLS: select Tools in Internet Explorer's menu bar and un-check "ActiveX Filtering"; or click Internet Explorer's gear icon , select Safety, and un-check "ActiveX Filtering". Disabling ActiveX Filtering on the CTI Navigator website is site specific, so you still can enable ActiveX Filtering for other websites if you prefer. (For more information, see Microsoft's ActiveX Filtering web page in the related articles at the end of this webpage.) 

IE 9  64-bit Incompatibility 

As of winter 2012, the 64-bit Edition of Internet Explorer 9 is not compatible with the many popular programs and add-ons on the Internet (including Silverlight 4 and earlier). (For Silverlight issues, see "Fix Silverlight Issues" in the related articles at the end of this webpage.) If you see both Internet Explorer and "Internet Explorer (64-bit)" when you click Start and then "All Programs", select the standard 32-bit edition (which has no bit identification) to ensure optimum compatibility with other programs and add-ons.  

To keep from accidentally running the 64-bit edition of IE 9, you can right-click on and delete "Internet Explorer (64-bit)" from the All Programs list and from your Start menu. This removes only the shortcut, not the code itself.  

To determine whether you have opened the 32-bit or 64-bit edition of IE 9, click on the gear icon in the upper-right corner of your browser screen and choose "About Internet Explorer." If you see "64-bit Edition" at the end of the version number, this is a 64-bit IE. There is no bit Edition identification in the 32-bit version number. 

Protected Mode

Starting with Windows Vista (and later), Internet Explorer (IE) can be set to a Protected Mode that utilizes Windows' User Account Control (UAC) to implement the principle of "least privilege". (User Account Control is not available in Windows XP or earlier). Sometimes this extra security can interfere with legitimate actions over the Internet (such as Adobe Acrobat/Reader opening PDF files in the browser).

Protected Mode can be disabled in IE-7 and later (IE-8, IE-9 and IE-10) for troubleshooting or for performing specific actions in unprotected mode as follows:

  1. Trusted Site: Open Internet Options > Security tab > select Trusted Sites > click Sites button > un-check "Require server verification (https:)... " > click in the "Add this website to the zone" box and type ctimls.com > click the Add button > click the close button. Protected Mode will remain off for trusted sites. It is recommended that ctimls.com be entered as a trusted site. 
  2. Zone Security: Open the site in Internet Explorer > in the top menu of IE, select Tools (or at the bottom of the screen, double-click on the security zone) > select Internet Options > Security tab > at the top, under "Select a zone to view or change security settings" click on Internet (globe icon) to highlight it > 

    Internet Options Enable Protected Mode screen 

    Below the "Security level for this zone", and directly above the Custom level... and Default level buttons, un-check "Enable Protected Mode" > click OK button > if prompted with "Warning! The current security settings will put your computer at risk", click OK > close all IE screens, then re-open IE for the change to take effect. 

    • To re-enable Protected Mode: open Internet Options > Security tab > select the Internet zone > check "Enable Protected Mode" > click OK button.
  3. IE as Administrator: right-click on the IE icon or shortcut > select "Run as Administrator" > click Allow at the User Account Control screen > "Protected Mode: Off" will display on the status bar at the bottom of IE screens until all IE screens are closed. This is a temporary setting. IE will automatically re-enable Protected Mode when IE is re-opened.
  4. Turn Off UAC: When Windows' User Account Control is off, this will automatically disable IE Protected Mode. For instructions on configuring User Account Control, see the related article below "Using Windows Vista and Windows 7."

Reset Internet Explorer (10, 9, 8 or 7)

Internet Explorer may become unstable (repeatedly shuts itself down or fails to function properly) after being upgraded, after add-ons (such as extra toolbars, animations, pop-up blocker, weather/stock tracker, etc) have been installed to your browser,  after installing (or uninstalling) a different browser (such as Google Chrome), or after running a "registry cleaner" or similar program. You can reset Internet Explorer back to its original default settings as follows (see warning note below):

  1. Start Internet Explorer (if possible) and select the Tools menu. If Internet Explorer fails, open the Windows Control Panel.
  2. Click on Internet Options
  3. Select the Advanced tab
  4. Click the Reset button
  5. In the "Reset Internet Explorer Settings" dialog box, click Reset to confirm.
  6. You may need to re-start Windows for all changes to take effect.

Firefox  Browser Issues

Clear Firefox Browsing History Cache in Windows or Mac

To remove temporary Internet files and cookies in Firefox:

  1. Click Tools in the top toolbar and select "Clear Recent History"
  2. Click on the "Time Range" button and select "Everything"
  3. Click the Details button to choose what history elements to clear

Silverlight or ActiveX Controls in Firefox 

To verify or manage installation of the Silverlight browser plug-in (used to run CTI Navigator Web) in Firefox , click Tools, select Add-ons, and select Plugins in the top menu of the browser. 

A free browser extension called "IE Tab" can be added to Firefox or Chrome in Windows to allow Internet Explorer components to display web pages in a browser tab. This enables you to display web pages that use Microsoft Silverlight (such as CTI Navigator Web) or ActiveX controls within your Firefox or Chrome browser, even if the browser itself does not correctly load Silverlight or ActiveX Controls. The original IE Tab also includes an "Auto URL" filter and a Bookmarks feature that allow you to specify which URLs should always be loaded with IE Tab.

Although it does not open the IE browser per se, IE Tab uses the IE Browser Control core engine. Therefore, to ensure full security when using IE Tab, the latest version of Internet Explorer should be installed in Windows on your computer and it should be kept up-to-date with the latest security patches from Microsoft.  

IE Tab currently runs only in Windows. There is an updated version 2 for both "IE Tab for Firefox" and "IE Tab for Chrome". You can read about and download the original IE Tabs at www.ietab.net.

If the original IE Tab V2 does not work as you would like in Firefox on your computer, you can download a different open source (free) IE Tab extension from http://ietab.mozdev.org/

An alternative to the original "IE Tab for Chrome" is "IE Tab Multi (Enhance)". You can read about IE Tab Multi at http://iblogbox.com/chrome/ietab/alert.php, and download it from the Chrome Webstore.  

Note: Beware that other IE Tab emulators may include adware/spyware/malware. 

To run Silverlight in 64-bit Firefox (ver.4) on Apple OSX, ensure that your version of Silverlight is at least 4.0.60129.0 or later. For help on Silverlight issues, see "Fix SILVERLIGHT Issues" in the related articles below.

If "Load images automatically" is not checked, place markers may display instead of actual images in MLS reports and web pages. 

Pop-Up Blocker in Firefox

To set the pop-up blocker in Firefox, click Tools > Options > Content tab > Block Pop-Up Windows. If "Block pop-ups windows" is checked, you can either uncheck it to allow pop-up windows; or you can click the Exceptions button beside "Block pop-ups windows" and specify that the website ctimls.com be allowed to open pop-up windows. If all pop-up windows are blocked, several CTI Navigator Web functions (such as Print and preview of MLS Report links in e-mail messages) may not display. For instructions to manage other pop-up blockers, see "Disable or Configure Common Pop-Up Blockers or Remove Add-on Toolbars" in the related articles at the end of this web page.

Manage the Flash Plug-in in Firefox 

The Adobe Flash Player browser plug-in lets you view video and animated content in Firefox. There are two different types of Flash Players: An ActiveX version for Internet Explorer, and a plug-in version for Firefox and other browsers. For Flash to work in Firefox you must install the plug-in version. For instructions on installing Flash in Firefox, see "Installing Flash Plug-in in Firefox" in the related articles below. For other issues using Flash in Firefox, see "Manage the Flash Plug-in in Firefox" in the related articles below.

General Diagnostics for Firefox

For detailed steps to identify and correct most known causes of Firefox no longer working properly, see "Standard Diagnostic Steps to Fix Firefox" and "Firefox crashes - Troubleshoot, prevent and get help fixing crashes" in the Related Articles below. Abridged and reprinted below are the steps for how to completely uninstall and then reinstall a clean copy of Firefox. 

Uninstall Firefox

To completely remove Firefox:

  1. Download the Firefox installer from Mozilla.com
  2. As a precaution, you may want to make a backup copy of your Firefox profile folder (click these links for specific instructions)
  3. Completely remove your current version of Firefox, as described in "Uninstall Firefox" in the Related Articles below
  4. To start up completely fresh, as though it was never installed before, also remove your user profile data 
  5. Reinstall Firefox by running the installer you downloaded previously (in step 1).

If you removed your user profile data before reinstalling Firefox, it will start up with the Import Wizard, just as if you installed it for the very first time. This will create a new "default" profile. You can then close Firefox and can selectively copy back your important profile data into the new profile, and reinstall your extensions or themes.

Clean Reinstall of Firefox

To reinstall a clean copy of Firefox after first removing the installation directory* (which is the application or program folder): 

  1. Download the Firefox installer from Mozilla.com and save it to your computer. ( Avoid unofficial downloads that bundle Firefox with the Google Toolbar or other software.)
  2. Close Firefox completely
  3. Delete the Firefox installation directory (On Windows, this is typically the C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox folder that contains "firefox.exe" and other Firefox program files and folders).
  4. Reinstall Firefox by running the installer you downloaded previously.

*Note: Removing the installation directory does not affect your Firefox profile data such as bookmarks, passwords, cookies, and preference settings, which are stored in a separate location

Another "clean reinstall" method is to first uninstall Firefox (in Windows, do not select the uninstall option to "Remove my Firefox personal data and customizations" unless you want to remove your user profile data). Then reinstall Firefox into a different program folder. (In Windows, use the "Custom" Setup Type and choose a different Destination Folder, e.g., C:\Program Files\Firefox3).
