After loading Lion on my laptop, iTunes is trying to start automatically all the time. Problem does not occur on desktop with Lion.

I recently loaded Lion on both my laptop and desktop. On the laptop only, iTunes is now trying to load automatically literallly all the time! What can I do to stop the madness???

The only way to reinstall Safari on a Mac running v10.7 Lion is to restore OS X using OS X Recovery
Instead of restoring OS X in order to reinstall Safari, try troubleshooting extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
If it's not an extension or plug-in issue, delete the cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

ITunes starts automatically all the time

I have a new Toshiba laptop with Vista Home Premium running iTunes version 8.0.2.20. My problem is that iTunes starts up by itself constantly. I have turned it off in msconfig, unchecked it on all my iPods, but it still opens anytime I put in a cd or dvd or connect an external hard drive. Can anyone help? It's getting VERY annoying.

i think you will lose your settings but you will lose your music (unless you know all of it is located in *another folder on your computer* (i.e my music)).
I think, if all your music is saved in a folder (that is created when itunes is installed) it might delete the folder ( *and all your music* ) if you uninstall itunes. ( *but double check this* (im sure someone will confirm)). Oh and you will almost certainly lose your settings, but again it depends where itunes saves them, and if they are automatically deleted when you uninstall itunes (From Apple's point of view if you want to uninstall itunes whats the use for kepping the settings ,if you don't have the program)
Are most of the CD's and DVD's Blank when you put them in? Or are they CDs or DVDs you havn't installed yet on itunes?

On my new iMac, mail has no sound after waking from sleep. If I select do not wake for network access in general preferences, the problem does not occur. Anyone have an idea on how to fix this?

Same here on an older iMac since Lion. Thanks for the uncheck wake for network access tip though, it doesn't do it either in that case, I will leave it that way.

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

After connecting my Sony camcorder to imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video the import window does not open. I have imported videos from the sam camcorder successfully before. What could have happened? Puzzled)

After connecting my Sony camcorder to Imac (Snow Leopard) to import a video to imovie 09 the import window does not open. In the past I have successfully imported videos from the same camcorder. What could have happened? Puzzled

Oh my! Obviously, I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know that my goal was to do both---backup AND free some space. My iMAc is old (2006) and I upgraded it a year or so ago to Snow Leopard. I didn't think I had the capability of backing up without an external drive, but maybe I do since I upgraded. Do I?
But I bought this My Book mostly for freeing space because I like to make cards in Photoshop and I'm forever running out of space when I get too many layers (don't really know what I'm doing there, either).
Is there some way that I can rectify my mistakes and start all over?
Thank you so much for beng so prompt with your reply and patient with mine. I tried for so long to see the dialog box with the library listings. When I launched iPhoto, even with holding down the Option key, it kept immediately launching into the full screen. Finally, after an hour of doing it over and over again, it worked when I held the key down for 5 minutes. Then when I was typing my reply, I kept getting a message to "Request Time Out." Didn't know how to do that, so kept hitting the OK button and kept typing for another half minute. Finally, when ready to send, Safari couldn't do it. "Try again" exasperated me until I realized I would have to begin again and use Firefox. When I got there and ready to type, I got the message that my message had been retrienved and did I want to use it?!!
So your kindness is very much appreciated.

I bought the HP Envy 100 printer with my new Macbook Pro 13" and it does not seem to work with Lion. Any suggestions?

I bought my daughter a new MacbookPro 13" for grad school and selected the HP Envy 100 printer from the Apple Store website. When I just tried to install the printer, it said that that the software was not compatable with Lion. Any suggestions as to how to get it to work?

Sorry, but the response just takes you to the HP site which is of all possible assistance short of actual help!!
HP (and Apple?) need to fess up and tell all the people who have HP printers when they will "just work" with their machines and OS X Lion.... because for many of us, they just don't! It isn't rocket science guys.... blithely telling us that downloading S/W updates from Apple doesn't help.... because they don't solve the problems!

After visiting a website that was a pdf file (which didn't load -crashed), Firefox now constantly causes calls to my hard drive all the time when open.

I went to a site that was a pdf of a map. When I clicked on it, the hard drive called constantly and the map never did download. Now when I open Firefox, my computer constantly makes calls to the hard drive all the time Firefox is operating. This does not happen when I use MS Explorer. Also, when I close Firefox from the desktop, it appears to close but is still operating in the background. I have to go into Task Manager to close Firefox. Then the calls to the hard drive stop.
Something similar happened once before with a pdf file, but it stopped when I shut down Firefox, rebooted, and reopened in Safe Mode. Now the condition is permanent. Is there a fix?

After a reboot, FireFox wants me to install all add ons again. If I only restart FireFox, this problem does not occur. Please help me solve this.

Every tab starts with a sentence (in Dutch, so I don't know the exact phrase in English):
Another program on your computer wants to adjust FireFox with the following add-on:
I even unchecked "Compatibility check" and tried the add-on "Compatibility reporter" to overrule the checks.

Also, please also try deleting the files named '''extensions.*''' in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder Firefox Profile Folder] after exiting Firefox. You can also open the profile folder through Firefox '''Help''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Troubleshooting Information''' > '''Open Containing Folder''' and exit Firefox.

2) Sometimes it reboot without any warning, I dont know why, and don't know how to fix it.
3) Can't find my floppystation, I can see it in driver managment, but not on the "my computer" window. When I write down "A:\" It says it can't find the file.
All this wierd stuff happend when I installed new drivers to my MOBO (The drivers are from MSI). I whanted to install the deafult drivers from the cd-rom, but I can't find it, I think I've lost it! :(
Can somebody please help me!
Thanks.
I've found my floppystation now after clearing the cmos.

You could install these from nvidia

During installation, de-select the IDE driver as this maybe causing your problems. Also de-select the sound drivers.

Everytime I load upgraded Firfox 3.6.6 I get an error message saying the new version does not accept the proxy setting.

Every time I load the newest version of Firefox 3.6.6 it says it is not accepting the proxy setting. Since I've never had a problem like this, I don't know how to correct it.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

In Firefox 3.6.4 the default connection settings have been changed to "Use the system proxy settings".
See "Connection settings": [[Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]]
You can find the connection setting here: Tools > Options > Advanced : Network : Connection
If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then select ''No Proxy''

Photoshop CS3 crashes at start up all the time after few months of working well

My problem with Photoshop started last week. It hangs (freezes) all the time and I am not able to work on it at all. I did reinstall the photoshop, created a new user on my imac, cleaned preferences and I don't have a CD in my my DVD drive, but it still crashes every time I open it. Doesn't allow me to do anything. Any suggestions? I can see the top menu items, but the moment I click on HELP it hangs. If I open a file I can't do anything with it as it freezes.
Details as per above: Mac OS X 10.5.4, iMac, 2.4GHZ INTEL CORE 2 DUO, 2GB 667 DDR2 SD RAM - 2x1GB, 320GB Serial ATA Drive (129 GB free space), SuperDrive 8x DL, two external 500 GB hard drives (one storage and the other one for time machine backup), Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium-Photoshop CS3. All other applications from the suite work with no problems, just photoshop hangs every time i try to click anything. I have to force quit every time.
The only new thing I did is install a new Lexmark Wi-Fi X9350 printer. Would this be a problem?
Thanks for any help I can get...

Thank you, thank you and again thank you!!! It works!! I have no idea which did it but I did put ~ in front of the TWAIN.plugin and got rid of the printer. I was so upset about it and now I can smile again.... Hope it will work with no problems now...
Did I say thank you enough...

After latest FF upgrade, on Mac OS 10.6.7 FF crashes all the time now

About a week ago I installed a Firefox upgrade and since then I have been getting lots of crashes. It opens a window to send a message to someone, Apple I think. I am using a Mac with OS 10.6.7. How do I get some help? Where will I find a reply to this message? Will it come to me in an email?
I got an email to confirm I posted this message a few minutes ago and I clicked the link to confirm it and it took me to a page that says there is an error in confirming me. What is going on? How can I get some simple help? How do I remove the latest upgrade?
