After an firefox auto-update, there is a circle with slash over the icon (do not) and it will not launch.

Firefox was doing one of its automatic updates and it never finished but a circle with a slash through it appeared on the icon and now Firefox won't launch. It gives the following error message:
"The application "Firefox" cannot be launched. -10661"
I've tried re-downloading Firefox but when I get to the window where you move the Firefox icon to the folder it still shows that it has the circle with slash through it. It will start downloading then stop.

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com

I had updated my ipod 4th gen I got over the summer to IOS6 and i do not like it but before I installed it it said I would gain Siri and thats the only reson I tried it out... Did I get Screwed?

I had downloaded IOS6 due to a friend being curious and The message telling me what would be gained. The part where it said I would gain Siri intrigued me so I installed it and I dont see any compatability or can even find Siri... Any resons to why???
PS... I hate the update...

I am pretty sure you read it wrong. The update notes probably mentioned Siri on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, "The new" iPad, and the 5th Generation iPod Touch.
See http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/
Siri is available in Beta only on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad (3rd generation), and iPod touch (5th generation) and requires Internet access. Siri may not be available in all languages or in all areas, and features may vary by area. Cellular data charges may apply.

I had a year long CC membership that expired at the beginning of the October.
After realizing that, I attempted to start a free trial of photoshop to work on a project. My Adobe account states that i'm on a trial, but my (Mac) dashboard CC app won't allow me to start the program. I have reinstalled both Creative Cloud and Photoshop CC but still get this message.

I use picasa for my photos..currently there is a question mark imposed over the icon on the dock and it won't open...what does this mean?
Thanks for any help.

The icon in the dock is a shortcut to the app itself.....for some reason the icon has lost contact with the app.......go to your Applications folder and drag Picasa back to the dock....a new alias (shortcut) will be created.....

My firefox installation is complete on my PC with Win XP, the icons are up, but the program will not start... no process or anything in task manager... any idea what is going on?

bought a second hand laptop running Windows xp. When I go to download firefox, the installation goes seemingly smooth, but the program will not open. There are no firefox processes showing in task manager when I do this. I just downloaded chrome instead, but it sucks and I want firefox but my computer rejects it. This computer runs every other program I use without a hitch

thanks chris for the reply back,i have solved the massive problem i have had with MF 3.6.3 it ws COMODO FREE FIREWALL i had a sneaking suspicion all a long it could have been that but was not sure?,my pc had slowed down since installing comodo i am pretty sure of that,there were lags and pauses ect ect on general usage of the pc even though cpu usage was ok?,so maybe if many pc users that have comodo firewall installed they might like to try a change to another firewall and see if it helps,i went back to OUTPOST FREE FIREWALL which i had for ages without ANY problems whatsoever.
regards

Since Nov update about a third of my songs have a circle with an exclamation mark inside the circle. These songs will not play on my computer. Message says "The song .... could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" I have reloaded these back onto itunes with my own CD collection. They work for a short while, then the same thing happens. I don't know what is causing this or how to fix it.

I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!

Ever since updating to ios6, my iPhone 4 has weak to no wifi signal and iMessage will not work, MMS stopped working, and I don't get my social network notifications on wifi unless I'm close tithe router or I catch a good signal from it.

The update has completely screwed up my 4.. No more iMessage over WiFi, I have to hold my phone in the air sometimes to catch a signal and I never had to do that before, and after the update I can't send any pictures, over iMessage or 3G .. And with the weak signal I only get my notifications from apps when it wants to.. I'll be connected to wifi and using it, but won't get any notifications, or when I do.. Its whenever the signal has registered or my phone has authenticated it, I've had these problems since last year with no fix, I've reset my router countless times, I'm on Verizon and NEVER had wifi or imessage issues before ios6 .

Make Genius Appointment and take your iPhone to the Apple Store. Only Genius can make these determinations. The broken screen voids your Warranty. The Genius could overlook this, you never know. Take your iPhone to Apple Store, hope for the best, but be prepared to pay $149 for Out of Warranty Replacement iPhone 4. A good price for replacement of an iPhone 4 with broken screen and WiFi problems.

Hi there everyone, I have purchased hundreds of movies and tv series over the last few years and can have not got enough space on my laptop so I have, put them all on to a WD 1 TB hard drive , I have just bought apple tv and am trying to stream my media f

Hi there everyone I have had to store my iTunes library on an external WD 1tb hard drive,
Problem is I've just bought apple tv and can't stream my iTunes library from my external hard drive, i have to keep copying what things I need to watch or listen to to iTunes and then stream it that way and it's very time consuming, please excuse my ignorance, but is there a way around this

As per the question, really...

In Mac os 10.5.8 firefox will not open at all. Updated latest version, used time machine to get back to older version and still will not open. Have to force quit with message Firefox not responding

Crash reporter fails as well. Says report cannot be forwarded to Apple.

Hey kbroch,
Have you tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode? Hold down "shift" while Firefox is starting up. If the crash doesn't happen in Safe Mode, you should read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
There is also a lot of useful stuff in the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-not-start Firefox won't start] Knowledge Base article. If you've recently upgraded, you might want to check out [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues#w_firefox-crashes-when-i-start-it this article] as well.
Hopefully this helps!

After updating to ios7 the apple newsstand is frozen with the esquire magazine offer and it will not close to look at anything else.

After updating to the IOS7 does anyone else have the problem of a magazine selection offer in the iPad newsstand freezing on the screen so you can't move it and look at others for purchase? The magazine cover is just frozen on screen and I can't get it to change so I can scroll through other magazines. I didn't have this problem until I upgraded to IOS7.

I never said to look at the bottom of the screen for the open apps. It is different in iOS 7. When you double tap the home button, you should see the apps lining up across the screen like you see in this screen shot. Swipe UP. On the mini screen of the open app. Don't swipe up on the app icon, swipe up on the mini screen of the open app. When you swipe up on that, it closes the app.

My iphone won't turn on and i have tried everything possible but right now, I cannot retrieve the data from it and it will not connect to my computer whatsoever, so is there a way to retrieve my pictures and data?

i have been frustrated all day and been going around asking Apple experts about this and it has to my decision to get a new phone since it's out of warranty but I want the images I have on the broken iPhone. Is there any possible way to retrieve it.
Btw, it is not photostreamed

Are you sure that the battery is not empty: when the battery is VERY empty (that is when it was on and a long time off the charger) it may take an hour or even more to start charging with the charger connected. When you have an iPad charger you can also use that one, and it charges a bit faster.
