After updating to the 4.0 beta 5 a few weeks ago, my PC reboots when down loading large amounts of email and or attempting to play a .wav video file. i did not have that issue prior to the upgrade.

Having used the beta 4 version of Firefox, the screen pop up kept insisting to upgrade to the 4.0 beta 5 version. I finally went ahead and did the update, and have had the above issue since.

Firefox 4.0 has not been in Beta testing for months now as it was released back in April and you appear to be posting with Firefox 5.0
Are you using the Firefox 5.0 which was released June 21 and is at www.mozilla.com ?
As for the sudden reboots well it could likely be a issue with hardware or dirver (for graphics card for example) or even a runlevel software as a application like Firefox itself does not cause Windows to reboot.

  • TS1398 I am unable to connect wifi on my phone 4s since last 2 weeks... I am living in shanghai and did not have this issue since 2 weeks... iPad works fine... Please suggest some measures... Tried the on off reset settings etc.

    I am unable to connect wifi on my phone 4s since last 2 weeks... I am living in shanghai and did not have this issue since 2 weeks... iPad works fine... Please suggest some measures... Tried the on off reset settings etc. but no luck ...
    In fact after updating the software to the latest version I am having more of this... Sometimes the wifi button freezes an I can't even slide it to on / off...
    Thanks

    Noooo! Actually I too had d same prob wit my iPhone 4S. When I connect to my wifi network it won't get connected or it wil be grey scaled! I took it to d istore and since I had warranty they replaced my IPhone. It iPad charger has high volt than ur iPhone charger so when u connect wit it, there is a chance where large amount of current passes thru ur iPhone. So for sure it wil damage ur motherboard and its parts! Many said that iOS 6 or 6.0.1 or 6.1 was d reason for tis wifi prob! But apple never made its mistake wit it's software. If and only if u hav hardware prob u wil hav these sort of wifi prob Bluetooth prob! So best way s to replace ur iPhone!

  • Ever since I upgraded to IOS 7 on my iPad, it does not remember my passwords, even though I check "keep me signed on".  Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing?  I did not have this issue with the previous OS.  Thank you.

    Thank you, James, but I do have a WiFi connection on the iPad mini. The Numbers files update on my iPad third generation and iPhone just fine when connected to the same network.
    Do you have any other suggestions?
    Thank you!

  • Just got my new iPad Air and noticed that the screen calibration is off. For example if I select the circle to place something there I have to select outside of the circle to make it happen. I did not have this issue on my previous iPad.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.
    If no fix, Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • I am having issues with my iphone6 bluetooth connection in my car.  When going to settings under bluetooth, it is unable to find any devices.  I did not have this issue until I downloaded IOS 8.0.2.  Do you know if there has been any resolution yet?

    I am having issues with my iphone6 Bluetooth connection in my 2013 Mercedes C Class.  When going to settings under Bluetooth, it is unable to find any devices.  I did not have this issue until I downloaded IOS 8.0.2.  Do you know if there has been any resolution from Apple yet?

    Hi susan from WSL, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that when your Bluetooth accessories, such as your car connection, do not work as expected it can be very frustrating. In this situation, I would recommend working through the troubleshooting steps provided in the attached article. 
    If you can’t use a Bluetooth accessory or car kit

  • I bought and downloaded iWork when i bought my macbook pro and i used to save my documents on words. then a few weeks ago, i downloaded a free trial of microsoft office but unregistered and deleted it a week after. now i can't save my documents on word.

    i bought and downloaded iWork when i bought my macbook pro and i used to save my documents on words. then a few weeks ago, i downloaded a free trial of microsoft office but unregistered and deleted it a week after. now i can't save my documents on word. It used to ask me if I want to save my documents on word, now it doesn't. And the W icon keeps on appearing on my dock. Can I return my computer to an earlier date? Please help me. Thanks

    No, I don't have a back-up of TIme Machine... to tell you the truth, I have this computer for a few years now and I still don't know how to work all of the apps that are here. Anything else I can do?

  • Lately, I'm unable to paste any image into the body of any email I compose. I did not have this issue before today. Please help.

    Could this issue with not being able to copy and paste any image within the email body, be virus or malware related?
    Though I don't think I have any virus problems. Also I have all the latest updates for Thunderbird.
    I read some suggestions posted elsewhere and tried those but none of these worked :
    DID NOT WORK #1 :
    (If your Thunderbird email message is displaying strange-looking code (tags) after each link, images are missing (it looks like images have been stripped out), and the font appears different, or bold, then you’ve most likely changed the message body view inadvertently. To switch it back, simply:
    Browse to View -> Message Body As -> and select Original HTML.)
    DID NOT WORK #2 :
    Email message looks fine, but doesn’t contain images
    If the rest of your Thunderbird email message looks okay, but is missing images, or they appear to have been stripped out, it’s very possible that you’ve changed a setting that won’t let attachments (ie. pictures) appear inline (within the message body). To change this back, simply:
    Browse to View -> and select Display Attachments Inline. )
    DID NOT WORK #3 :
    If you made the above changes to your Thunderbird settings and images still aren’t appearing in some of your messages, it may be that Thunderbird is blocking them because it thinks they are spam. To adjust your privacy settings and prevent the images from being stripped out, or not displaying at all (ie. being blocked), simply:
    Click on the button to the above right of the email message asking you whether you would like to load images.
    If the email message is from a trusted sender, you can click the link above the message specifying you would always like to load images in messages from this particular sender.
    DID NOT WORK #4 :
    If you’re still having troubles, or your changes aren’t being saved (ie. next time you open Thunderbird the images won’t display again) you can directly specify the default format Thunderbird should display email messages as in the config editor. To access it, simply:
    Browse to Tools -> Options -> Advanced tab -> Config Editor
    Search for mail.default_html_action and make sure it is set to 3 (allow original HTML). If you would like messages to open as text only (more secure, but you won’t see images, change the setting to 1).
    Could you please suggest what possibly has caused this issue? Thank you for your time.

    Thank you for your response.
    After searching around for any pointers to my problem, the above fixes I listed were the things that came closest to maybe addressing the issue, that I was able to locate. But since none worked, and as you pointed out, it is now clear they will only help towards viewing sent images rather than helping with inserting any images in the body of the email, which is the problem I suddenly started facing today.
    Coming to your suggestion, on opening the Write window, the Insert choice on the menu bar is indeed available. And I had already tried using that, by clicking on the '''Insert ----> Image''' option listed. That opens
    up the "Image Properties" box but using that has not resolved the matter either. It results in an image box getting inserted within the email but without the actual image itself.
    Plus, normally I am able to use the '''Paste''' function in the Edit menu or through right-click, but today the (Cut/Copy/Paste) functions have gone inactive, thereby disallowing me to use that to place an image within the email.

  • TS1538 My iTunes does not recognise any of the six i-devices in my household... the Apple Mobile device is still listed in my windows 8 control panel and I did not have this problem prior to the last month.  Is there something to help?  Anything?!

    SIX devices... not one recognized by ITunes.  Three IPods, two iphones and an ipad.. This is ridiculous.  It's been a month.   When am I going to be able to fix this?!

    Who are you?  Me?  I have an iPad, 3 iPods, and an iPhone (ok, only 5 devices, maybe you aren't me).  None of them will synch with iTunes ever since I upgraded iTunes to 11.1.4.62.  I am trying to figure out how to revert to 11.0 or 10.x.
    If you want, you can try the official technote, but none of them worked for me, and they take quite a bit of time to slog through : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1363?viewlocale=en_US

  • Firefox 22 keeps crashing after I updated it. Scripts keep freezing. I also updated shockwave, etc. (addons). Did not have this issue before updating.

    After the latest FF update every page seems to freeze up and I get script error pop ups that cause the FF browser to hang forever. Only happened after updating FF and shockwave, I have had to disable shockwave flash which seems to fix the problem, but I can't watch videos. I had to add the NoScript addon just to see browser pages... not very good as it kills pretty much everything. Also I noticed that the newest version of java deployment kit has been rendered UNSAFE by FF. Why, and what to do about that issue also? Thanks.

    The combination of a recent Windows update and the Flash player plugin's protected mode caused pages to hang for me with the eventual script error.
    * You can disable protected mode following the steps in this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]

  • Just recently I get a messages that Mozilla is using too much memory. Why? I did not have that message before, if you use too much memory I won't be able to open web pages. I recently updated to version 3.6.16

    what details? my question has the details!

    OK, I decided to upgrade to Mavericks. 1st I checked to see if Parallels 8 woudl work w it. It said yes, but upgrade parallels 8 1st so I did that (& then realized I should update virus def & run Windows updates also. Don't use it very much  180 days ago it said).
    Then saw some reports of mail not working so well so decided to clean out a lot of un-needed emails on my Mac. Also ran updates to Mountain Lion.
    Then closed everything & shut down. Left it off for a few min to clear out any left over electronic garbage & rebooted. Opened App store & clicked the Mavericks free download. Almost immediated it gave me error message & suggested doing it from the Purchased section.
    Ok, I tried downloading it there. 2-3 times got same almost immediate error message.
    Then, I think it was after disconnecting external HD & printer I tried again & it was looking good w download. It was fluctuating between 40-45 min time remaining & showing almost 500 mb downloaded when I got the error message again.
    btw, I also got an error message when running Windows update. There was an unknown error code when I tried updating Service Pack 1 (which it showed I needed, although I'm thinking that is kind of strange since I've had Windows 7 on a MacBookPro since shortly after I bought the original MacBookPro in April 2010. (Spilled water on it last May & Apple store said it would need expensive repair so bought this replacement that they used my Time Machine backups to install everything on. This was right as I was getting ready to move & I haven't yet found the old one to see if maybe it would work. It should be in one of my boxes).
    So, if it is having this much trouble just getting it installed I'm kind of afraid to go ahead. Wondering why some report it works fine & a lot of others saying no.
    I very frustrated since I just want to be able to have the functionality I had to be able to sync Numbers between my iPad & my Mac.

  • I just updated to iOS 6 and my WiFi keeps disconnecting from my iPhone. I did not have this problem with iOS 5... What do I do?

    Hello,
    I have no idea what to do. Every time I try to connect, within seconds it disconnects... Because of this, I cant update my apps because they are over 50MB. So most of my apps are frozen...

    I also have this problem. One additional symptom is that though I can log on momentarily, almost immediately it disconnects me from WiFi, then brings up a "Log In" page with Apple's version of a 404 error. The URL that it appears to be trying to connect to is www.apple.com. Have tried powering down my phone, cycling my modem and router, re-entering my AppleID, forgetting the network and rejoining. Nada. Home network using Airport. This didn't happen while at work where we don't use Airport.
    This only happens with my iPhone 4S. My iPad 2 works just fine.

  • HT4628 I did the security update on 4-2-13 and now my airport card will not turn on. OS 10.6.8 Intel imac 4,1 core duo. My macbook pro did not have this issue and wifi here is working on that. Is there a setting that was changed? Thank you!

    Airport card will not turn on after security update yesterday. worked normally (for the download of the update) until then. Wifi here works fine with my Macbook Pro right now so the issue is with the card / computer / software not the provider. Did the update change something?
    OS 10.6.8 imac core duo.  The indicator is on the tool bar but is empty.

  • Why will Macfee Virus not work with the new version? How do I swich back to the previous version that did not have this issue?

    I selected to let Firefox install the update. After the update was done. A message came up and stated the new version of Firefox does not support the add-ons for Macfee virus software. How do I switch back to the previous version, that does support Macfee virus software add-ons? In the mean time I will have to switch back to IE until this is resolved.

    Your Anti-virus application is not disabled, just one silly little McAfee extension for Firefox.
    See McAfee for an updated version of their Firefox extension.

  • Using gmail - multiple copies of mail being written are forwarded to the trash -did not have this issue with 10.6.8 -

    I have two Imacs - the master one is plugged in directly into the modem, it runs with 10.6.8 and works fine (this computer is not connected to Icloud)- the other  is connected to a router which is connected to the master unit and the modem. that unit was upgraded to 10.9.4 and it is connected to Icloud - both Imacs use gmail accounts for e-mail.
    The "slave" unit running on 10.9.4 creates multiple copies of mail being written and sends those copies to the trash file. We have had up to fifty copies of one e-mail in the trash. That computer worked fine under OSX10.6.8 - We have visited the apple store genius bar with this Imac, and consulted the apple phone support service to no avail.
    while it does take a long time to transmit the e-mails, addressees get only one copy. Your help will be appreciated.
    Gerald

    9/16/14 update - another call to apple phone support revealed that this is a known issue that has no solution at this time.
