I have a new 64bit computer to which I have transferred all my files and re-installed all my programsWhen I try to print a page using Adobe Acrobat 9, Firefox crashes. This has never happened before, and does not happen with other browsers.

I have a new computer. I transferred all my data files and installed my programs. Now, when I try to print a page ti pdf using Adobe Acrobat 9, Firefox crashes, and Adobe hangs up.

Thanks for your reply cor-el. I had never heard of nor seen the pref network.http.max-connections until I read about it in some of the replies in this support forum. People were saying 256 was the old setting and a new setting of 48 would correct my problem. When I followed the instructions to get to - see - and change the setting I discovered that my network.http.max-connections was already set to 48. I never did this. The only way I can think of that this setting was changed is that it happened by an automatic update to my Firefox browser. So, the problem I have was probably happening while this setting was at 48 all along. It is still set at 48 and I am still having the same problem. I will try as you suggest and set it to 30 and see what happens. I'll let you know the results. That's again for your response.

I just recently got a new iPhone 4 and the service is all of a sudden terrible and my calls are dropped constantly. This has never happened before. Any suggestions on what I can do? This is really frustrating!

May be your carrier but try a reset:

When I click on my finder to put a new folder on my desktop, it apears on the desktop nut it conatins all the files on my desktop. What I want is a new untitled folder. By the way, this has never happened before, in my many years of using imacs

Are you sure you are choosing "new folder" rather than "new folder window" - new folder results in an empty "untitled" folder on my desktop whereas new folder window shows all my files.

I cannot open my photoshop, its asking for a serial number. I do have one but it will not accept it. I've had this program for 5 years and this has never happened before.

If your Creative Suite version is #3 through 6, you might try running the CS Cleaner Tools in preparation for a re-install.

I keep getting an error message when I plug my iPhone into my computer. It says, "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device has not been started." This has never happened before when I plugged it in - now the iPhone won't show up at all.

Someone please help! I do not know how to fix this. It keeps saying my Mobile Device has not been started and I can't get my phone to show up in the iTunes window AT ALL. It will charge while plugged in, but it just won't come up in iTunes.

Sorry, the error message should read, "...the Apple Mobile Device service has not been started."

Just after latest upgrade, firefox is performing badly. It will open one or two websites then I get the anti-clockwise rotating arrow, then nothing. This has never happened before. I have re-installed firefox but the same happens. Please help?

Firefox has always worked fast. But after the last upgrade, it has slowed right down. I am running Windows 7 32 bit. Now the first website loads fast; then the next website loads slower; then links gradually slow down until I just see the reverse arrow which never loads up.
I have re-installed Firefox w/out success.
Please help,
Will

Sorry your experience wasn't a plesant one, but most of the issues they work on are hardware in nature, not software.. I'm not taking up for Apple... I'd had my share of run-ins with them as well.
As for your iTunes issue... an EASY solution is to simply tell iTunes that the location you want your tunes stored in is your Public folder. Items in your public folder can be seen and opened by others, so your wife could easily access the files there.
For you, go to your Music folder, find the iTunes folder, and drag it to your public folder.
Next, go to iTuness>Preferences and click on the Advanced tab, then the General Tab, and the first window you see is the iTunes Music Folder Locataion. Click Change, then navigate to the iTunes folder in you Public folder.
Now, next time you purchase a song from the iTunes store, or import songs from a CD, they will be stored in the iTunes folder, in your public folder.
You wife does basically the same thing except she navigates to YOUR public folder, and the iTunes folder inside.
She will have to manually find and import any new songs you add but at least your entire library will be available for her to listen to.
There are other ways of getting the same thing done, but I think this is the easiest.

How do I stop Firefox 31.0 from closing down when I close the only tab that I have previously opened. This has not happened before and is infuriating.

As far as I am aware this problem started with the upgrade to Firefox 31.0. If I open Firefox and look at a website and then close that website, then Firefox closes down. The same thing also happens whenever I close the last of a number of websites that I have previously opened. Previously, I could close the last website looked at and the process did not close down Firefox, merely left me with my Homepage.

Hey! That's it. It worked!
Thanks a lot

Recently my firefox has been crashing often at random times, this has never happened before.

It started late last month i was just browsing some websites and all of a sudden my browser crashed. The sites I was browsing had nothing like flash or any other kind of video media on them, they were all text and image sites. And since then I've had several crashed at random and some very inconvenient intervals like online banking. These are the 5 most recent crashes I hope they can be helpful. Thank you very much for your help in advance.

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:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''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.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode". 
[[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.

Once firefox is opened my mac pro lap top starts to rev very high. This has not happen before. And I lost all my tabs from the last session. Has this been a problem recently and how can I solve it? I am trying to avoid my system crashing.

firefox is working my system too hard and the system is revving very high.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== today ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_8; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.22.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Safari/531.22.7

Does this start right when you start firefox or after you've loaded some pages? Are there specific pages that cause this problem?

When I open one particular folder to play the games in it the pointer turns into a pinwheel and I cant open the game or close the folder unless I shut down my computer. Never happened before and does not happen with any other folder on the desktop.

why does pointer become a pinwheel when I open one particular folder only and prevent me from opening the apps in it and then keep me from closing the folder unless I shut down the computer completely. I can open all other folders on the desk top without a problem. My game folder never gave me trouble before.

Try this. Open one of your files. The window that contains your picture is named at the top. Command click on the name and you'll see the entire path starting with its name and then moving to the folder, the folder it is contained in, etc all the way to down to the hard drive volume name. This should tell you where to find the folder.

HT1386 I am unable to sync music from itunes to my itouch 5th gen. This has never happened before. I use a i3 processor on my windows 7. The music just won't sync and when I go the "on this ipod" tab, the songs come faded and there is a circle.

I have tried resetting and restoring also but it just wont sync music!

Di you restore to factoru settings/ne iPod?
Do the songs play OK in iTunes?
Does any media sync to the iPod?
Try
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components

When using Yahoo search the link opens a new tab rather than remaining in the current tab. This has never occurred before upgrading to FF 10.0.2. Played with tab setting in options window with no luck. Please help - very annoying.

Windows Vista. FF 10.0.2 (2 days ago).

Many of your points are totally legitimate.
This one, however, is not:
…To put it another way, the design of the site seems to be geared much more towards its regular users than those the site is supposedly trying to "help"…
The design and management of the forums for more than five years have driven literally dozens of the most valuable contributors and "regulars" away from the forums—permanently.
The only conclusion a prudent, reasonable person can draw from this state of affairs is that Adobe consciously and deliberately want to kill these forums by attrition—without a the PR hit they would otherwise take if they suddenly just shut them down.

Ugent help - Every time i go to a secure website firefox latest version says This Connection is Untrusted. This was never there before and now its appearing

Every time i go to a secure website using firefox latest version i get an error saying "This Connection is Untrusted" This was never there before and now its appearing. My computer clock and date is correct and i have tested out all plugins that they are updated. Also did a scan on all viruses and spyware nothing there any help please.

Sorry, I didn't look at all the images.
You can see that the certificate is issued by your security software (Firewall): ESET SSL Filter CA 
So you will have to disable that filter or install the ESET root certificate that chains to that certificate.

When i download a file from the web i get "Anti-Virus Program not found " message. This has been happening since I change anti-virus programs for CA etrust to Sophos. How do I get Firefox to recognise my new Anti-virus program?

That is a very good warning provided by the Download Statusbar extension. Something like that should been built into Firefox. I filed this Bug report a couple of years ago, about the lack of a warning like that. 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480855 
I have looked everywhere that I can think of to find a list of '''IOfficeAntiVirus providers''' ''(as mentioned in the Bug report)'' that will work with Firefox, so I can't answer that for you.
You might want to ask the developer of the Download Statusbar extension about it. He might know which AV programs are compatible with the Windows API that Firefox uses for the download scan.
