When I open Firefox I get an error saying "Connection was reset". I went through the articles and did what they said for a situation like this but it didn't fix it. However you can help would be most appreciated. Thank you for your time. Tyron

It also says underneath "Connection was reset" "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading." Despite doing what the articles said to do in this situation it hasn't solved it yet.

HI, and thank you for your reply. I am a bit confused however as I would have thought that once I turned off the engine of my car the transmitter and ipod would be also off???? Is there still power coming into the cigarette lighter when the car is off>????? i have a mercedes c class. The cigarette lighter is still working and the transmitter is still working. Are you saying that by leaving them still plugged in even though the car was idle and not running it still destroyed the hard drive???? Also could this happen if a person leaves it docked in a radio cd player but is not listening to it, is it still charging and could this have burned out the hard drive. (i always left it docked) until i bought the transmitter for the car.
Your thoughts would be much appreciated as obviously I do not want to make the same mistake again.
kind regards

It appears as if my startup disk has been reversed and not using the fusion ssd portion as it should. At least its now reversed as to what it used to be originally before. the 128gb ssd used to be on top. Is my mac booting fusion correctly? Thank you for responding as I was about to reformat.

I have lost the ability to upload files to a website. I have to transfer files from my computer to a web site and I get an error message "connection was reset" and the file will not upload. I try to transfer pictures and I get the same message.

I have to upload a scanned receipt to a website and I get the error message "connection was reset". I have uploaded these receipt for two years and last week I have had to use another browser to complete this operation. I connect to the website and do the report I must do, but I can no longer upload to this site.

Are you using any additional software for the uploading?
Try using Firefox in [[safe mode]] when you upload. There is no need to make changes when you see the option. Disable all plugins whilst in safe mode. Then try the uploads.
You mention [/questions/921993 elsethread] that it is a work site. Have you contacted your IT department. One possibility is that the site is not recognising Firefox 10.
(One temporary workaround and troubleshhooting test would be to install Firefox3.6.27 [http://portableapps.com/news/2012-02-01_-_firefox_portable_3.6.26_released portable] as an additional browser and try that.)

When I open firefox I get an error message "update could not be installed check for duplcates"

Error message: The update could not be installed. Please make sure there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer, and then restart Firefox and try again.
I have uninstalled all versions of Firefox. Then went to the Internet through Explorer and downloaded from scratch. A few days later I started getting the message again.

If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version and delete the Firefox program folder to remove any leftover files.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

When bookmark with Firefox I get an error message that Google has a problem saving the bookmark. Whay are FF bookmarks being saved to Google?

I used to be able to save bookmarks in Firefox. Now when I save a bookmark there is an error message that Google is having a problem saving the bookmark. Does this mean saving to Google or Firefox? When I look roe the saved bookmark it is Google.
Also when I save the bookmark i do not get the option to save it to a folder-- I can only tag it

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

When I open Firefox, I get a message saying my INSTALLED version is more than a few months old, and I need to upgrade. But when I check for updates, there are none. I run v. 3.6.13 Mac, the latest version. Does it want me to install the beta v4 or what?

This message appeared in the last 2 weeks. I was traveling and using a variety of internet portals. But it's still appearing now that I'm home, so that probably is not a factor. I have Firefox set for auto download/install of updates.

Firefox 3.6.16 has a newer build and release date than Firefox 4.0 does.

When I invoke Itunes I get an "error 7 (Windows 193)" message. I have reinstalled twice and get the same message. I have Windows 7 64 bit machine. Can someone help?

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:

When I open Firefox I get this error-firefox.exe application error the instruction at 0x02c38690 referenced memory at 0x02c38690 the memory could not be written

When I open Firefox I get the following error: firefox.exe application error - The instruction at 0x02c38690 referenced memory at 0x02c38690 - The memory could not be written - Click on OK to terminate the program.
If you click on OK it closes Firefox - You can not reopen Firefox until you reboot the computer. Then it starts all over again.
The same happens if I click the "X" instead on the error window.

When I open iphoto I get an error message that says Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable,

when I open iphoto I get an error message that says Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable, I have tried restarting computer and opening iphoto whilst holding down option and command key, but then I get the following message-Your photo library is damaged or unreadable and cannot be opened. Please restore from a backup. Please can anyone help?

Make a back up now. If you have any vaule in Your photos always have a back up.
Most Simple Back Up
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex:
Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
In Library Manager the Rebuild command is under the File menu. There's also an excellent Help available.

When i open firefox, a window pops up saying i have either opened or closed another window in firefox even tho nothing else is opened... how can I get it to sto

When I open Firefox, a window pops up saying I have either opened or closed another window in Firefox even tho I haven't and nothing else is opened. I have to close that window to continue. How canI get it to stop?

Are you using the Default Theme? ''If not, switch to the Default Theme.''
If it isn't a problem with a 3rd party Theme, try the Firefox SafeMode. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most other Add-ons.''
# You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
