Please help me in this regards.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Hello dear Mozilla team! I just defaced to the problem , when i'm trying to visit http://cyberprogrammers.net/ website from Firefox browser, its frozen and i need to close firefox.exe from task manager. <a href="http://cyberprogrammers.net/">Cyber Programmers</a> website is working perfect with other browsers, and i try to open it with my friends computer, with Firefox browser and i don't get any error like that, its not frozen. So please help me to understand the problem and solve it. I'm using Latest version of firefox, Windows 8.1. Thanks for your support!
Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem. -
AX light is yellow and does not flash and doesn't change even when I press the "reset". Tried unplugging and reset -- still a solid yellow. I assume this is a goner?
Unfortunately, based on your description, I would have to second that your Express is a "goner." However, before giving up on the unit, be sure that you attempt a "factory default" reset at least 3x just to be sure.

A pop up appeared and it doesn't disappeared even though I press the "ok" of the pop up and it doesn't let me do anything else. I can't even turn it off. What can I do?
This isn't the solution, but I would just let it run out of battery.
It would turn off on its own then just start charging it again
Hope this helped

Opening files with Illustrator and photoshop doesn't work, i have to drag the files from finder in to the program.
This problem appears after opening 4 a 5 files, rebooting helps another 4 a 5 times and appears again.I'd recommend reposting in the Boot Camp forum, that is where the Boot Camp and Windows gurus hang out.
Good luck. -
somehow changed a video in my imovie to zero fps, so it just plays black. The video still exists on my desktop but even when I delete the files from imovie and reimport them the file is still in zero fps and play black.
I'm not sure of your question.
Are you asking how to use Photoshop?
Or are you asking for the dimensions of video iMovie uses?
It edits in 720P HD, which is 1280x720.
You can make it a bit bigger so you can zoom in.
Much bigger then this is a waste of time. -
When I exit firefox it closes the program but it gets stuck in memory so when I open it again i have to kill the process in task manager, and it can be right away or I can come back a few hours later and its still stuck in task manager, I am tired of having to kill the processes every time I use firefox.

<u>'''Safe Mode'''</u>
You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes <u>'''before'''</u> starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
See:
'''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
'''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
'''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling <u>'''one at a time'''</u> until the problem reappears. <u>'''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change'''</u> via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window. -
Hi, I have a problem on the ipod with this file "metadata_never_index". My PC doesn't recognise it. I need the program Apple Spotlight but I can't download it as well. Why? Any solution?
I am not doing it in ITunes, but i did down load the song from ITunes. I loaded the song on to my Nano, but in my menu selections it doesn't show the song or the artist in any search format. However, when i plug in my nano to my PC I see the Nano library on my PC drive listings and that song and artist are there. I can click on the song and it will play in Windows media on my work PC. I did notice that the format for most all the songs in my library on my Nano are MPEG - 4 audio Files.
Thanks for your help, Mel -
Apple automatically charged me for an iCloud upgrade on a device I do not own anymore or know of the current owner. Even though I deleted the device from my account I was still charged for a device I do not have anymore. It's very difficult to get to talk to anyone from support. How can I be refunded?
Yes, assuming they are currently on the computer.
If the iPhone has been used as designed, contacts are either in a supported application on the computer or are synced to a cloud service.
Pictures would be copied to the comptuer regularly and then those desired to be on the device would be synced back. -
I upgraded from version 3.6.15 to 4.0.1. After upgrading the program doesn't open. I keep getting a message that "Firefox must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade. Do you want to reboot now?" I rebooted 3 times with no success. I also tried to uninstall the program and I get the same message! In other words I can't even uninstall. The previous version ran fine. Any suggestions?

Frequently after my computer comes out of sleep mode or hibernation with Firefox still running, I will try to input text (anywhere in the window) or push the volume buttons on my keyboard and it causes the program to not respond. The only option is to close and restart it, but it doesn't remember my tabs anymore, nor does it remember closing my tabs (when I look for them in the 'recently closed tabs' menu). Often this does not solve the problem, and I end up having to restart my computer for it to work again.
This can be a problem with Session Restore.<br />
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore
Delete the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js.

when shuting down Firefox after not being connected to the internet the processes remains and I have to go into task manager and remove the process manually or I get a message that Firefox is already started and it will not come up
Sofar I have found (off internet),
A)that if you go into sleep mode, the wifi shuts down or powers down.
B)sleep mode must be disabled in order for wifi to continue.
C)you can check this by going into wifi and seeing the iphone every 20 seconds or so looking.
D)as far as handoff ,I still not to sure but I think BOOTH units must overlap each other in order to handoff from 1 to the other.
Show much bs on the web that I have to filter the pages and there not enough time in the day to go thru it all. -
Frequently, Firefox for Windows (Vista) freezes up. I click on a link or try to go to another web page and nothing happens. The icon in the tab is just spinning, with Connecting. but it never connects. Then when I close it - if it lets me. I click to open it again and a window pops up saying that Firefox is already running, to please close it before launching it again. I have to go to Task Manager and End task from the Processes tab. It is also a resource hog including the Plug-In Container.
The pluging container opens up unnecessary copies as the cookies/history are cleared, this is a known issue, it might be what you are seeing, and it is hoped to be fixed in some future release of firerox.
There are some hangs affecting some users, with symptoms being high cpu usage, occurring as bookmark changes or syncing is in progress, there is a work around for that.

My flat screen won't connect to the internet, even when I use the cord from my working iMac.
I have an old dome base flat screen running Tiger and a newer intel iMac running Snow Leopard. My newer model connects to the internet just fine and my old one did too, until recently. Both work off the same Comcast modem and one will connect and the old one won't, even when I take the cord from the new one and plug it into the old. I didn't make any changes to it so I don't know what the problem is. Any suggestions?
I think what happened is I had Hide My *** Proxy running and for some reason it won't let me get on line with it running, although it used to so I don't know what the deal with that is. On my other computer I can get on line with it running. Anyway, after I quit HMA I could get on line. Thanks for your reply. By the way, my other computer is not connected to a hub, but to the Comcast modem/wireless device that my other computer is connected to.
