Flash is now freezing my whole computer since last upgrade 14?

Windows 7/ 64 bit
Firefox29
Flash player 14
Active X 13 ? (Not sure why these are different)
Since my last flash upgrade I haven't been able to play any games like farmville 2. When I try my game freezes every few seconds, and then my whole computer freezes and I have to do a manual shutdown. I have tried everything I could find on your help site and nothings working. I do not have a Realplayer, I have a Realtek player so I did not complete any of those help instructions. What do I do now?

I have the latest version of Itunes but it freezes my whole computer when it starts up

I have the latest version of Itunes but it freezes my whole computer when it starts up. I have installed/reintalled Itunes but it still stops my whole computer when I start Itunes.

OK, so we rule out LSP then,
Try following steps one at a time and test your itunes:
1. Restart computer, right mouse click iTunes icon and select "Run As Administrator", now try your itunes.
2. If that does not work, check to see if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
3. If that fails or you don't see ApsDaemon.exe in the Processes, refer to following article to remove SC files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
4. If that fails, repair or reinstall your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

Aperture freezes the whole computer

I have Aperture 3. I can use all the preset adjusments and run through the whole program no problem but i have an issue where every time i go to use a brush tool for a short amount of time it freezes the whole computer to the point where i have to force shut down. I have a Macbook pro 15" Retina with 8gb RAM, 250gb SSD, Intel Hd Graphics 4000 and NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 (so the lower end MBPR). I have created new libraries and i have reinstalled the most recent update but it still does it. I was told by my AV teacher who is a Mac Genius to create a new account on my computer and run it through that account and i did and it seems to be fine. how do i fix it on my regular account? what could be wrong? help and advice would be great! Thanks!

Try to find the differences between your regular account and the new account where Aperture works.
Compare your preference settings in Aperture.
Check your start-up items in in the Users&Groups panel. Do you use different start up items when logging in?
Have you installed any software, that is only used in your account and not installed for all users, like Cameras of Flexibit?
Make sure your Aperture library is in working condition. Crashes can have left it corrupted, so use the Aperture Library first Aid Tools to repair the permissions and the database, see:
Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual
SInce the problem is restricted to your account, remove the User preferences from the User Library, if none of the above fixed the problem, see teh paragraph on preferences in
Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics
and if that does not suffice, remove the presets.

IDVD 4 now freezes the entire computer during burning

Hello,
iDVD 4 now freezes my entire computer during burning somewhere around stage 3. I can't even force quit. This never happened before - it does so while burning a project that had been burned successfully many times in the past and also new projects. I did have a bad RAM problem weeks ago - which is fixed now. Tried fixing permissions and cleared out enough free space. This is wierd - it has been working for years.
Thanks very much,
NIck M.

Hi
*Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows:*
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
• Hard disk is untidy: Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
• Delete iDVD pref file - *or rather start a new user/account* - log into this and re-try
iDVD pref file resides: Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences and is named:
com.apple.iDVD.plist
While iDVD is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
Now restart iDVD.
• Program miss-match: iDVD 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK - DON’T work under Leopard
• Program miss-match: iDVD 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match: iDVD’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• iDVD (08) v7 Locate theme folder. Move out iDVD1, iDVD 2 and eventually iDVD4 folders to desktop - re-try
• Try a Cleaning CD/DVD that cleans the laser lens on the DVD burner/player
iDVD 6.0.4 and iDVD 7.0.1 are compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
Last resort: from Craig: Solved the problem!! Finally!!
I deleted every iDVD application and folder from my boot drive,
emptied the trash and then installed iDVD 08 using the customize option
and I am up and running.

Using Thunderbird/Firefox - since last upgrade, issues with HTML emails and opening PDF

Since last upgrade, it seems that I'm having 2 (maybe 3) problems:
1) emails have white/grey horizontal lines in the bottom half of the email's text or graphics
2) can't open pdf files - when I could without issue before upgrade
3) Adobe Reader - I've downloaded updates, but they won't install. (says not compatible with my computer, but running Mac OSX 10.6.8 (I even downloaded Opera brower to see if that would work, but there still seem to be Adobe issues)
Any thoughts?

Now i'm thinking it has to be those 10K fonts I put on there into the Font app.
I think you are correct, that was not a good idea.
Hopefully they all wound up in Home/Library/Fonts. You can safely delete everything in there, as OS X does not put anything in that folder. Fonts part of the OS are

[SOLVED] lxdm autologin won't work since last upgrade

Hi,
Since last upgrade, lxdm won't autologin anymore.
I had a lxdm.conf.pacnew file wich added only a commented line that I added into the conf file, wich does look like this :
[base]
## uncomment and set autologin username to enable autologin
#autologin=dgod
autologin=Olaff
## uncomment and set timeout to enable timeout autologin,
## the value should >=5
# timeout=10
## default session or desktop used when no systemwide config
session=/usr/bin/startlxde
#session=/usr/bin/openbox-session
## uncomment and set to set numlock on your keyboard
# numlock=0
## set this if you don't want to put xauth file at ~/.Xauthority
# xauth_path=/tmp
# not ask password for users who have empty password
# skip_password=1
## greeter used to welcome the user
greeter=/usr/lib/lxdm/lxdm-greeter-gtk
[server]
## arg used to start xserver, not fully function
arg=/usr/bin/X -background vt1
# uncomment this if you really want xserver listen to tcp
# tcp_listen=1
# uncoment this if you want reset the xserver after logou
# reset=1
[display]
## gtk theme used by greeter
gtk_theme=Clearlooks
## background of the greeter
# bg=/usr/share/backgrounds/default.png
## if show bottom pane
bottom_pane=1
## if show language select control
lang=1
## if show keyboard layout select control
keyboard=0
## the theme of greeter
theme=Industrial
[input]
[userlist]
## if disable the user list control at greeter
disable=0
## whitelist user
white=
## blacklist user
black=
Since there were no uncommented lines added, I assumed it would make no difference.
Edit :
Now, the system goes to the login screen instead of autologin.
lxdm brings me to my session if I log in however.

Not sure why OlaffTheGreat uses LXDM, but I use it because you get it for free as part of the LXDE group, and I'm too lazy to change it. My security is the 30 to 40 character passphrase I need to unlock my encrypted drives. Then having to type in an 8 character easily guessed user password is beyond annoying.
I just checked my pacman cache files and it looks like the upgrade to 0.4-1-25 is when I first got the error (currently listed as 9 days ago which would be about right). I upgraded, booted and got the login screen that I was not supposed to. I had just merged the pacnew file so it was fresh in my head and made the changes I described. Booted again and got the autologin and I didn't think another thing about it until I saw this post earlier today. Upgraded again this weekend to 0.4-1-27 with no problems.

Memory card no longer recognized since last upgrade of OS

Since last upgrade 2 days ago to OS 10.2.0.429 my memory card is no longer recognized !
It says "multi media card instered" shorlty on screen when I intser it but then when I go in file manager it says "no multi media card inserted", when I go in System settings\storage it says "your mutli media card is not recongized, you can format it"....!!!
Before the last upgrade of OS I had no problem with my card...!!!

I'm really upset of BB service. Does anyone of BB is not supposed to handle cases...?

IPhoto won't import movies (.mov, .mp4) into the library since last upgrade to 9.5.1 (902.17)

iPhoto won't import movies (.mov, .mp4) into the library since last upgrade to 9.5.1 (902.17). Error message is "File format not recognized". Before that, no problem. Had them first on SD-card over USB, tried then to copy to the HD (Desktop) and import from there, but didn't work. Imported successfully into iMovie and exported as .mp4, but even this is not recognized.

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Post back with the result.

HT1386 WiFi and Bluetooth signals have weakened since last upgrade

WiFi and Bluetooth signals have weakened since last upgrade. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

WiFi and Bluetooth signals have weakened since last upgrade. This is no fault of my router and or head set. I have 3 Bluetooth head sets, all disconnect when I put my phone in my pocket. I'm sitting at my desk and there is static from my Bluetooth connection... 12" away. It works fine when I hold my phone up to me ear next to my Bluetooth receiver... That's crazy!!! All WiFi connections have the same affect... Low signal... I'm sitting at my desk right next to my router 24" away and have a low signal. Normally I can sit in my backyard 40' away and still get online. My laptop, no problem... My wife's phone, No problem... My recently upgraded iPhone, BIG PROBLEM!!! Apple is blowing smoke if they think they haven't screwed up.....

Mail is freezing my whole computer

I feel as if I'm back using OS9. I've been fighting with this all day, as I'm getting sick of it - it's been going on for 2-3 weeks now.
As long as I'm actually using Mail it seems to be fine but if I leave the computer, whether Mail is the active appl'n or not, when I come back, the whole computer is hung and I have to force quit. I can move the mouse around, I can click to other appl'ns but I can't DO anything. I can get to the Finder but again, nothing works. I've hit the Force Quit key combination for 2 to 3 minutes at a time - nothing. The only solution is to force quit.
I've read these forums. I've verified my discs (all 4 of them: 1 internal, 3 external) I've repaired permissions using my installer disks at least 3 times (lost count). It still comes up saying there are permissions which need repairing but from another post on these forums they are innocuous and nothing to worry about (ie an iPhoto permission).
I've tried trashing my com.apple.mail.plist prefs and have rebuilt all my accounts TWICE today but then they don't work properly (can't send e-mails). I've tried restoring the prefs from TimeMachine, at which point Mail hangs immediately. What on EARTH is going on? Has anyone else been experiencing this? I'm wondering if there's any connection with the fact that 2 weeks ago I had my laptop hard drive and RAM upgraded. Could this have started the problems? I can't remember when I started having this freezing problem.
Having used a Mac for years (since 1986, I think) I know that they're pretty bullet-proof but at some point I'm sure it's going to say "enough is enough". I'm especially worried about my FilemakerPro files, as each time I open them after a crash they have to be rebuilt.
If anyone has any suggestions I'd really appreciate hearing them. I'm ready to try pretty much anything! I'm also going to post this to the Leopard forum in case it's a system issue not triggered by Mail but from what I can see, it's Mail that's causing it.

Well Helen, feeling some pressure? I like your implication that you want to leave Apple over this, and that after 21 years, Apple now stinks. You may be right. Let's see.
How on EARTH did you get that idea from what I wrote??!!! You MUST be kidding because that's sure not what I said. What I said was that after 21 years of using Macs I know that they can take a lot of force quitting without trashing things.
Start by going to ~/Library/Preferences, trashing com.apple.finder.plist, and restarting.
I didn't think of that one - thanks, I'll try it.
If this fails, drag the entire Preference folder to the Desktop, and restart. Replace your Mail folder, and Mail preferences, and now see if the issue persists (If it does, the Preference folder can be replaced.
Hmmm. I'm not sure I'm following this. Wouldn't this totally mess up ALL my preferences for ALL my applications?
Note: You bet new RAM can be an issue. Know how to reseat it?
On a desktop tower type Mac, yes. On a laptop? No. I'm not sure I'd even want to try, to be honest. If that's necessary I'll just take it back to the service guy and have him do it.
Thanks for your suggestions.

Aperture 3 freezes the whole computer

Upgrading to AP3 has been for me rather an obvious step. Yesterday I downloaded the trial version. It created a new library. I created a new test project, imported some 50 RAWs and started playing with it.
EVERY TIME I use AP3 during making adjustments, geotagging or processing faces AP3 freezes the whole machine. At some point it displays "Processing...", spins for some time, then the spinning freezes, mouse freezes, the whole machine freezes. I cannot quit AP3, cannot do anything, just have to power down using the power button.
Is this normal for my machine? Is my computer too slow? Am I doing anything wrong?
I am now wondering if I should buy the upgrade at all!
Wondering what your experiences are?
PG

I have found this hint 2 days ago:
http://aperture.maccreate.com/2010/02/15/problems-with-aperture-crashes-use-appz apper/
I followed the procedure. Then installed AP3 again, let it create a new library (this is still the Trial) and imported again +/-50 RAWs.
I have not been able to crash AP or the system so far. Faces enabled, tried geotagging, adjustments, brushes etc.
I have to confess I ordered the upgrade yesterday so I can see if the library upgrade works fine as well.
Try it for yourself,
Tonden

Why does my iPhoto freeze the whole computer when editing?

Every time I edit in iPhoto, the whole computer freezes after about a dozen adjustments of any kind. I have to manually shut down and restart as no key commands allow access to any other app or the Finder.

Hi, Terence ~
I'm using iPhoto '11, v. 9.1.5
with ± 5,000 photos in current iPhoto Library
running SnowLeopard, 10.6.8 --
capacity: 750 GB; available 695 GB
on my Mac mini >>>
Model Identifier:          Macmini1,1
Processor Name:          Intel Core Duo
Processor Speed:          1.66 GHz
Number Of Processors:          1
Total Number Of Cores:          2
L2 Cache:          2 MB
Memory:          2 GB
Bus Speed:          667 MHz
Boot ROM Version:          MM11.0055.B08
SMC Version (system):          1.3f4
The freezing has been happening for quite some time, since before I upgraded to Snow Leopard, before I upgraded to iPhoto '11 from iPhoto '09, before I upgraded my mac mini from a solo ore machine to a duo core with much more HD space, etc. I think it started when I first installed iPhoto '09 , but my memory fails me. I have had other events interspersed with this recurring annoyance, hoping that it would go away during one of the upgrades I mentioned. However, it persists. I have wondered about reinstalling iPhoto, but do not know if that means I will lose all my editing changes.
I do not know about any Console messages you refer to, but perhaps I am missing something. How would I find out? I do know that I am exhausted and frustrated by this. When the editing process causes the freezing, I cannot use any of the key escapes, cannot even shut down other than manually. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you for taking an interest in my dilemma.

IPod sync freezes my whole computer

Hi everyone
I'm having this really annoying problem of when I plug my iPod (120gb) into my computer my whole computer crashes, literally, I cant move the mouse, even the caps lock light on my keyboard wont come on or anything. I messed around with iTunes when it 1st happened and it worked again for about a week or so then it started to freeze up again. And I've tried all the usual 'resetting the iPod' and all the other stuff
Also, when I plug the iPod in not even the screen with the 'Do Not Disconnect' message comes up, the backlight comes on and the main menu or whatever screen I had on last appears and I'm still able to work the iPod as I normally would be able too
Any help would be great
P.S. I don't know a lot about computers so I wont be able to tell you any information about it lol, sorry
Thanks again, Jack
