I can't launch Safari. When I right click on the icon, the "Application not responding" is grey and no matter what method I use to Force quit, I get no response.

Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

Why am I not able to export NEF files to Photoshop from Lightroom to edit. This is new. When I right click on an image, the export to PS option is not selectable.

Why am I not able to export NEF files to Photoshop from Lightroom to edit. This is new. When I right click on an image, the export to PS option is not selectable. I've never had this happen before. I haven't used it for a few weeks, so maybe there's an update (Mac or otherwise) that's screwing things up? HELP!

I have an Edit In - Photoshop option, but not an Export - Photoshop option.
Obviously to have right-click Edit In to work, the photo you're right-clicking on needs to be selected. I assume this is not the problem, and that the photo is selected.
Mavericks 10.9.3 has a problem where the Users folder is hidden, and you need to update iTunes to fix it, but it's been a few weeks since this happened so hopefully you're up-to-date and the Users folder isn't hidden anymore.
If you can't get things to work, I'd uninstall LR and uninstall Photoshop, then install Photoshop, and update it, then install LR and update it, as a way to get any wayward security or other OS-level things reset.

I'm using the sync option for when I'm not near my desktop and no matter what it won't work its telling me my account name or password is not correct and it is!

I'm using the sync option for when I'm not near my desktop and no matter what it won't work its telling me my account name or password is not correct and it is!

This is from my personal experience:
It almost happens every time I tried to connect with Sync from my Android phone, the window asking me to enter my account name and password always shows up. And if I enter the information, it'll say I have the wrong password, etc. My workaround is to click the "cancel" button. But it does not cancel immediately. The window will stay on for a while (usually a few minutes), then it'll disappear and start connecting to Sync. And it'll connect and sync successfully.
You can try this workaround but you have to be patient to wait for the window to disappear.
I don't know what is the cause of this, but it has happened ever since FF4 for Mobile came out. I have searched around and couldn't find any solutions.

When I right click on something with my mouse(not wireless)..It opens up the previous thing I had opened rather then what I am currently trying to open. It did it before the update and is still doing it

right clicking on photos, websites etc... with my mouse which is not wireless... It reopens the previous attempts rather then the current one I am trying to see

I found this solution on another newsgroup, so I thought that I'd share it here.
Thanks to all who tried to help.
"I was also experiencing these annoying sync-problems. The cause for
this lies in nvcpl.dll - a nvidia dll, which scans for connected TVs.
The first time the dll is loaded, is at windows-bootup
(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->Microsoft->Windows->CurrentVersion->Run).
This causes the first flicker and unfortunately the auto-startup-entry
can't be deleted.
The flicker when right-clicking on video-files is caused by a shell-
extension, which the nvidia-driver installs for all types of video-
files. This shell-extension calls nvcpl.dll everytime you right click a
video file to scan for connected TVs. If a TV is present, the shell
extension shows up in the context-menu as "Play on My TV". I never
tested this, but I suppose when you click it, the video is directly
shown on your connected TV.
This could have been implemented a lot better, this f...ing sync-flicker
is driving you crazy when browsing a video archive.
After scanning the registry, I found the key responsible for the shell
extension. Just search for "PlayOnMyTV" in the registry and you will
find some entries under "shellex" (shell extension). These entries
contain an identifier, {FFB699E0-306A-11d3-8BD1-00104B6F7516} in my
case, I'm not sure if this identifier is static or created dynamically,
so in your registry, it might be another number. Now copy the identifier
and search for it in the registry; delete every occurence when it's
connected to video-file formats (.avi, .mpg, .mpeg and so on) and
afterwards the "PlayOnMyTV"-shellextensions."

Cannot not click on menu that appears when i right click my taskbar, as the right click menu dissapears when i move mouse over to the right click menu

PROBLEM: RIGHT CLICK CONTEXT MENU DISAPPEARS WHEN TRYING TO LEFT CLICK AN OPTION
Hi,
Im using Windows 7, and i could always
go down to my TaskBar and Right Click
Icons, and active icons, which would bring up
the standard Right Click Menu list.
PROBLEM
As soon as i moved my Mouse away from
the bottom Window 7 Task Bar to go a couple
of millimeters above to left click an option on
the Context Menu i opened with my right click,
The whole Menu disappears, and this happens in
Firefox version 29.01, other programs in Firefox,
and other such as Skype.
When i was running Firefox 28
i didn't have this problem, can you help me out.
Thank You
Kev Borg

When I right-click on an image, the dialog box (copy image, save image, etc) is now tiny

The right-click menu recently changed - it now only shows a max of three menu items in a very small box.
Compounding the problem is the speed at which the menu items scroll. It's so quick that I can't pick the menu item I want. I have to use the up or down arrow keys.
Any ideas?
Thanks

You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

When i right click on a playlist it is not giving me a burn disc option????

Can anybody help with this problem.
I right click on my playlists and am not getting a burn disc or burn playlist to disc option.
Is there another way i can try and burn a disc?
Thanks in advance.

This may be caused by the changes that Ubuntu makes.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
Back up all data before making any changes.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

"Avast" is the worst of the whole wretched lot of commercial "security" products for the Mac. Not only does it fail to protect you from any real danger, it may send personal data (such as web browsing history and the contents of email messages) back to the developer without your knowledge, give false warnings, destabilize and slow down the computer, expose you to network attack, and corrupt the network settings and the permissions of files in your home folder. Removing it may not repair all the damage.
Some versions of the product also inject advertising into web pages. In short, apart from the fine print in the license agreement, Avast is indistinguishable from malware, and is arguably worse than any known malware now in circulation.
Back up all data, then remove Avast according to the developer's instructions. Restart.
If you tried to remove Avast by dragging an application to the Trash, you'll have to reinstall it and then follow the instructions linked above.

When I right click on any page the menu won't appear properly and some times the whole menu won't even appear. And on the bottom of firefox there is an extra bar which just appeared and won't go away.

The menu has trouble appearing properly, and sometimes doesn't appear at all.

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Less than two week old iPad Air crashes with youtube/netflix and Safari when loading pages with video (i.e. Buzzfeed with links to youtube and vine). What's up with iPad Air's bugs with videos??

Week and a half old iPad Air crashes with light usage of youtube, netflix and safari pages with video links to youtube and vine. The consistency of problems with videos has led me to determine that it must be bugs with iPad Air. Anyone else having this problem?
Details: iPad Air 16gb wifi, have only used about 25% of space and always close all apps before opening another. I also have only had a max of two tabs open on safari of basic internet surfing (i.e. A google search page, or imdb for example). These crashes are annoying as sh......

I can well imagine that they are.
I would backup, restore to factory settings, restore from the backup and then try again. If that fails, restore again but do not use the backup - restore as new. If the iPad functions OK as new, then slowly rebuild the iPad adding your apps, music etc, methodically to see if you can pin down what might be causing the problem.
if all of that fails, it's time to schedule an appointment at an Apple a Store (must be done online) and have them take a look, or of it is lees than two weeks old, just return it for a refund and buy another one.

My laptop deleted itunes off of my computer and it will not let me redownload it no matter what method I try. I concluded that this computer wont let me download itunes again. is there any way I can transfer all my music off my ipod to a new computer?

Please I need help I do not want to lose all the music off this iPod. I have a new laptop and the laptop I originally had all my music on has viruses and I think that may be the problem and it wont let me download iTunes again. Please help me

Did you authorize your new computer in iTunes under the Store menu?

Is there a way to change the order of the list that appears when i right click on a link?

In previous versions of firefox, when i right clicked on a link the list that appeareded was in order:
first Open Link in New Window
second Open Link in New Tab
In firefox 4 this is reversed. Is there a way to change it back?

You can do that with the Menu Editor extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-editor/
This extension has not been updated by its author in a couple of years, but another developer has updated it for Firefox 4, you can get the updated version from http://netticat.ath.cx/MyAddons/MyAddons.htm#3rdpartyaddons

When I right click on an Item to copy and pasdte it the Copyt button on my mouse does not work with firefox, it works everywhere else...I highlight an item andt

I have tried all the solutions so far. they did not change the outcome. My right mouse will not show the copy command. I am getting the drop down menu when I right click and I can highlight words but when I right click to copy and paste the copy does not work... it was working fine until I did the last update for foxfire.. I have 22.0 version

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
<b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
*You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
*''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

Why there is only "New folder" option when I right click on "Windows\System32" folder ?

Hi,
someone can explain me why when I right click on some specific folders, I only have the right to create new folder but not to create new document or new text file ?
Is there a way to add more options when I right click on those folders ?
Thank you

Because there's a DACL that allows to create folders (you are in an
appropriate group allowed to do so), and there's a second DACL that
allows for creating or modifying files (you are NOT in an appropriate
group to do so).

Why do my margins get cut off when I right click print, but not when I open my document and print?

When I right click print (without opening the document) my margins get cut off, but if I actally open my pdf document and click print, it will print just fine. This only happens when the document has print that is close to the edge.
I am using Adobe 10.1.2 with Windows 7.
Thank you in advance for your thoughts and help

As for your comment on this being my first Mac, and the program issue, you misunderstood. Yes the eMac is in fact my first, personally owned, Mac computer other than the original Apple II series floppy fed PC, in which me and my father owned. The only other Apple/Macintosh computer I had experience on was my father's 13" MacBook Pro, and 20" iMac (both ran OSX Tiger 10.4.11, just as the one I have know runs). The iMac was upgraded to Snow Leopard due to our need for better picture/video/audio editing software such as that of Adobe, and the Macbook Pro was sold because of a business that was started being siphoned out of money. I purchased the eMac from a small business based off of eBay. It had the majority of OSX Tiger software, only missing minor programs like Photobooth. Other than that, it had no wireless software like BlueTooth, Wi-Fi capabilities, wireless sync, ect... But alas, when you buy a Apple/Mac computer, you must take a few cutbacks when purchasing it (even refurb.) for around $120.00 including taxing, shipping, handling, ect... I purchased nearly all of my software from co-workers and friends who had an extra key, or I would receive the software disc from them, and buy a key. The only "illegal" thing I had on the computer was music I had downloaded from LimeWire. I have never, and will never, trust any software coming from a torrent download site.

I can't launch Safari. When I right click on the icon, the "Application not responding" is grey and no matter what method I use to Force quit, I get no response.
