During the past month, I have experienced problems with printing coupons in Firefox. Each time, I receive an error message that says that Java is disabled (it is not). Sometimes, if I press the back button and then retry 2-3 times, the coupon will print. Can anyone shed some light on why this might be happening?

Thanks, “Goob”…….but what is OS? Operating system? I am self taught as of only three years ago on a computer…….

I see you don’t recommend Windows 2000 for the same reasons, what system do you recommend? I have an older Presario Compaq and am happy with it until all these changes started in May, 2009. We are running on half an income since a pulmonary embolism took me away from my SpEd Teaching career, so that is the concern on spending allowances and that is why coupons would help out so much…….

Any input is appreciated……

Judy, I completely understand what you are saying. However, you’ll probably start to notice that more and more pieces of software will no longer support 98SE as it gets harder to make the software compatible with the OS. When Microsoft stops supporting and updating a version of Windows, as they did with 98SE back in 2006, it usually signals the start of the end for an OS. I’d suspect 98SE has less than a percent or two market share, which ends up making it cost prohibitive. If you do decide to one day upgrade, I’d suggest not going to Windows 2000 as that will eventually be the next OS no longer supported.

Robin, I work almost exclusively on a Mac and have gotten the two big coupon sites (coupons.com and SmartSource) to work on my computer. I’ve found they suddenly are printing well with Firefox 3.0.2.

Thanks, Goob! That was the missing link!

I’ve downloaded and redownloaded the coupon program so many times it ain’t funny…and it still doesn’t work. A couple of those coupon sites came right out and said their printer isn’t Mac-compatible. Well, I’m not PC compatible so I guess I’m not doing business with those folks. Here’s to the handful of stores, products, etc. who simply offer their coupons in .pdf or some other no-drama format so we can all use them!

I have tried to download all the programs needed for printing the coupons. I did not have a problem until this year, I do believe that all the companies have upgraded their systems. This said, my Windows 98SE will not support their programs, and only until I install Windows 2000 or higher will I be able to download their programs. I think that stinks….I do not have the money to buy Windows 2000. I am happy with 98SE. If they are trying to help people they should keep it so that the people that need it the most, still hanging in there with an older computer, can support their systems. Why should I upgrade my operating system to accomodate the coupon companies. Seems a bit bass ackwards to me!

Well the bricks coupons are from Coupons.com, so that’s the FAQ we need for them. When you download the software, did you actually install it? If you’re on a Windows computer, I think the software downloads and then you have to double-click the file on your computer and run through the installation wizard.

What about when you are trying to print a “bricks” coupon and it tells you to download the software, so you do that and then click on the print coupon button but then it takes you right back to the download the software screen?
