Forefox won't start in windows XP: I get the message that windows "cant' find the exe file" even when I click from the program file, rather than the shortcut.

Delete the current Firefox shortcut on the desktop and create a new desktop shortcut via the right-click context menu on the Firefox.exe program (Send to > Desktop)

Uninstall your existing copy of iTunes. Delete any copies of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer files from your downloads areas for your web browsers and download a fresh copy of the iTunes installer from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
(The current build of the 11.1.4.62 installer was changed a few days ago, which fixed the bulk of the reports of MSVCR80.dll/R6034/APSDaemon.exe/Error-7/AMDS-could-not-start trouble ... but the build number on the installer was not changed. So we're trying to make sure you do the reinstall using a "new good" 11.1.4.62 installer instead of an "old bad".)
Does the install with the new copy of the installer go through properly? If so, does that clear up the error message?
If you still have the same error messages cropping up, then try the procedures from the following user tip:

Everytime I open a window in Firefox 4 beta 2 I get a messeage that says TypeError: Components.classes(cid) is undefined, when I click OK it opens up the new window. How can I fix this?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). 
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] 
 
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears. 
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Hi tonymontenegro!
I have two articles that will help you troubleshoot this issue. First, an article on unexpected application quits with iTunes:

TS1717 Why can I not start Itunes? I keep getting a message that it stopped working/was stopped because of DEP, and I can't get DEP off to launch itunes.

I have Itunes installed on my PC, but now I can no longer open it. If I open it, I get the same message each time: Itunes has stopped working, a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. As soon as I close that message by clicking on "Close Program" which is my only option, I get a second message stating that to help protect my computer, Data Execution Prevention has closed Itunes. So I read up on help section and attempted to turn off DEP for Itunes, but I get the message that I cannot turn it off for this program. I attempted to repair, uninstall, reinstall Itunes and I keep getting the same message. I also logged in as a guest on my computer as a site suggested and see if the problem exists there as well, it does, it gives me the same message. Please help!
Thanks!

You're welcome! Glad you got things sorted out.

Starting up Firefox I invariably get error message that it can't restore prior sessions.

I have prefs set to NOT restore prior sessions. I've tried deleting mozilla plist, but to no avail. Start page is set to Blank. Any suggestions?

Firefox will not start, so i read the FAQS and tried the suggestions and it still won't start and instead gives me an error message that says "unable to connect."

Firefox simply doesn't open. It's our favorite browser, so we want it back!
We get the message: "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.yahoo.com.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web."
we tried un/re-installing. i tried to create a new profile, but the browser wouldn't let me. i went into my firewall settings, but nothing looked unusual. i tried restarting in "safe mode" but the same thing happened.
it looks like i'm not connected to internet, but other browsers (the awful things) work just fine.

Firefox won't close. When I shut it down, the window closes, but I can't reopen it. I get a message that it is still running. When I shut down my PC, I get a message that Windows can't shut down Firefox.

The question pretty much details my problem. I have to force a shutdown of Firefox and reboot to be able to browse again.

I can not load i Tunes on my laptop running windows 7 I get a message that the installer has insufficient priveleges to access this directory C:\Program Files\ i Tunes

I have tried reducing the pop up level on my browsers. No change.

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

When opening any website I get a message that windows can't find the file, after which Firefox opens the site. Why do I get the windows message?

Using XP. I do not use Explorer, only Firefox. The windows message I get does not prevent Firefox from opening. This only happens when I first open Firefox. Once open, it does not happen again unless I close Firefox.

My iphone 3 keeps giving me the message that my password and username is not correct when i go into my mail. It was linked to my gmail account and had been working fine. All the sudden today it won't connect to my gmail account and this message appears

my phone has stopped connecting to my gmail account.When I click on the mail button it opens and the a message appears that says the user name and password for "imap.gmail.com" is incorrect. My information is correct under settings I have even deleted account and tried to re-set up my gmail account. Still nothing. It had been set up for months and working with no issues.

ATtempt to power off your device and power it back on, if that doesn't work reset all settings should resolve it for you

On new Windows 7 laptop, copied my old profile from my old Windows Vista laptop, including saved password, but on new laptop, nothing happens at all when I click Remember for a new password. The password toolbar does not even close

I copied the profile as per Firefox instructions and bookmarks, etc are fine. It only appears to be the Save Password that is not working. Any ideas?

Hi, no passwords showed up in Tools, and I did copy both files.
However, I recopied these and this now seems to have corrected the issue (not sure why but I guess it must have been my mistake).
Cheers
