Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
#Open Firefox ''Options'' window (''Preferences'' on Mac or Linux) as follows:
#* In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and select ''Options'' for Windows or ''Preferences'' on Mac or Linux.
#* In Firefox 28.0 and previous versions, click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
#In the Firefox Options (or Preferences) window, click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select ''General''.
#In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
#Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]

Will lion run on Intel Core Duo?

Will Lion OS run on a 2GHz Intel Core Duo?

No. Lion will not run on an Intel Core Duo.
The hardware requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
I have a MBP with 2 GB of RAM which is running Lion quite happily.

When loading any page with Flash content Firefox will always crash. Any Ideas to fix this?

The issue occured following upgrading to 3.6.13 from the previous version.
Firefox will not crash if the Adobe Flash plugin is disabled. I have uninstalled and re-installed Flash player & Firefox, both of which did not solve the problem.
The issue is not present within the latest versions of IE, Chrome, Opera or Safari.
Any help to possibly solve this problem would be greatly appriciated?

Are you getting the crash reporter when it crashes? If so, please provide a crash id -> https://developer.mozilla.org/en/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_for_a_bug_report

I downloaded Firefox 4 and tried to launch it. The message said that Firefox will not work with this version of Mac OX. Please advise.

I downloaded Firefox 4 and installed it. When I tried to launch it, a message came up saying that Firefox will not work with this version of Mac OSX. Now I have no Firefox. How can I get Firefox 3.6 back on my Mac? How can I make Firefox 4.0 work? Please advise.

Thanks for the reply so quickly! Is the tenfourfox going to be be just as safe and as high of quality as the Firefox 4? Also since Mozilla's website says, "Firefox 3.6.x will be maintained with security and stability updates for a short amount of time. All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to Firefox 4" does that mean if I go back to 3.6 there will be security and stability issues after a "short amount of time"?

I can't download any video or software from firefox, or play any video and has reinstalled firefox.

Did you remove both older Flash plugins and installed the latest version of the Flash plugin.
# Shockwave Flash 11.7 r700
# Shockwave Flash 11.6 r602
You can check the Flash player installation folder for multiple Flash player plugins and remove older version(s) of the plugin (NPSWF32).
*(32 bit Windows) C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash\
*(64 bit Windows) C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\

Make sure you have the latest version of Flash. You can download the latest version of Flash from Adobe at http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html#main_Archived_versions
Scroll down to the "Flash Player for Android 4.0 archives" links and download the latest flash version. Currently (11.1.115.54).

So just to be clear on a few things:
Should partitioning the hard drive not work is it undoable?
Will this have any impact on doing a complete erase and reinstall and will that restore it back from the process?
Is there a limited amount of space that makes this process ineffective?
I have never had to do this sort of thing so I just want to be sure I don;t wind up in the dog house *)
Thanks again

Rebuilding aMacBook 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo, hard drive failure so rebuilding system. Aircard will not stop self-assigning IP address. Any ideas how to resolve successfully?

Had hard drive failure on MacBook 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo, so had to rebuild the OS on new drive. Was on Lion 10.7.5 prior to failure, but had to reinstall Snow Leopard 10.6.3 since that was most recent OS on media I had. After finally getting ethernet connection to router working, was able to get to internet and download / upgrade to 10.6.8. I assume I can probably buy the upgrade to Mountain Lion 10.8 from there.
Problem is this, Airport will not stop self-assigning IP address for my wireless connection, and unless I can get wireless back on this laptop, doesn't make a lot of sense to continue the rebuild and reinstall of all the software that was on it prior to HD failure. Only way to my home network and router is ethernet now. Everything else on my network (Apple MacBook Pro laptops, iPhones, desktops, and non-Apple printers and laptops) is hooking up to router wirelessly fine.
Any ideas how to resolve successfully so that the airport will stop self-assigning and allow the router to assign the IP address?

A custom task sequence to install software is always listed as Operating System on Software Center

Hello,
I have built several custom task sequences to install software in SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 environment, but the type of task sequence is always listed as Operating System on the Software Center. I tried creating a simple task sequence (Task Sequence 1) that contains
a single restart computer step only and tried deploying it to a test machine. This task sequence is also listed as Operating System. This task sequence fails because this is not the one for OS install and I do not specify a boot image for this task sequence.
All task sequences that I have created in SCCM 2012 RTM environment are working as expected. All task sequences that I create in SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 are listed as Operating System regardless of its actual type (I upgraded my environment from CM2012 RTM to CM2012
R2 CU1 last month).
Here is a test task sequence that contains a single step of restart computer. This is not Operating System install but listed as Operating System. Any thoughts?

If you use OSD steps in your task sequence you will get this prompt.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/3eb7569c-0b5a-4b40-86c3-d4f092c70aca/task-sequence-warning?forum=configmanagerosd
Per Mikko:
Using any of following steps (and possibly others as well, I did not check all of them) will change the task sequence type from generic to OSD:
General - Join Domain or Workgroup
General - Restart Computer (Only "The boot image assigned to this task sequence" option)
Disks - Format and Partition Disk
User State - Request State Store
User State - Release State Store
Images - Apply Operating System Image
Images - Setup Windows and ConfigMgr

Will Macbook Pro Intel Core Duo run Snow Leopard ok?

I have the following system spec on my Macbook Pro which i bought in Apr 2006:
2.16 Ghz Intel Core Duo
2 G 667 Mhz SDRam
I would like to know if Snow Leopard will run on my system. I have been getting a few glitches for the last while when running internet related searches for certain sites like Youtube, and sometimes with streaming video. I figured that maybe i need a more up to date OS as i've been a bit slack with updating it. Any thoughts fromt he community are welcome

Yes. You can run Snow Leopard OK.
As you're starting from Tiger it's imperative you backup your current system before proceeding. That's best done by cloning it to an external HD using the Restore function in Disk Utility, or you can use third-party software such as CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper.
The reason for this is that although the installation should go smoothly with the installer replacing system files and leaving your user data and applications untouched, I have come across a couple that failed and could only be installed after erasing the Macintosh HD.
Buy the retail Snow Leopard disc; http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA
and update to 10.6.8 with the combo installer; http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Be aware that lots of software will need updating, not all of it for free (stand up, Adobe!), and you may well have difficulty getting drivers for older printers or scanners.
Ensure you select Rosetta from the optional installations to enable your older software to continue working.

Dualdisc cd side won't play on my mac mini intel core duo w Superdrive

Shakira Fijacion Oral DualDisc "CD" side will insert and then automatically reject from my Mac Mini - Intel Core Duo. The DVD side plays fine. Unfortunately iTunes not smart enough to work with DVD side. There is a query in IPOD forum about Springsteen DualDisc also failing on intel mini mac that is listed at "answered" but for the life of me, I can't tell if you are supposed to just not buy DualDisc or else take the Mac Mini back for a new drive.
mac mini (intel core duo) Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2GB RAM

Mac Mini Intel Core Duo's did not ship until 2006 which seems plenty of time for Apple to announce 'we have a problem' and what their recommended solution.
Why would they do that ? I mean, they don't have a problem. The inventors of DualDisc made a type of disc that won't play in all players, and Apple can't really do anything about it. Superdrives are not made by Apple, it's just Apple's name for a DVD burner; the Superdrives that are found in various Macs come from several different manufacturers, and although Apple probably ensures that the Superdrive and the Mac work well together, they won't test whether it works with each type of disc (usually, the manufacturer will).
However, that is probably limited to redbook/standards-compliant discs; since a DualDisc's CD side doesn't comply with any standard other than "DualDisc", and because it is not considered important enough to be officially supported by most (if not all) manufacturers, they probably won't test them since they're bound to get mixed results anyway.
Similarly I don't remember seeing a "strictly redbook only" disclaimer on any of the media available from Apple describing the capabilities of its Superdrive when I was making my mac mini buying decision.
You didn't see one because it is not required. Asking that Apple (or any other company) warns you that their players won't play non-redbook CDs is a bit like asking that they tell you everything your optical drive won't play. Apple claims that their Superdrives will read CD-R/RW, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, DVD-R DL, which aren't only a bunch of weird-looking letters, but also correspond to a standard. When you see a CD logo on a drive, it means that it will play redbook-compliant CDs. Your Dell player simply does more that what it is supposedly capable of, but because one (or many) optical drives will play DualDisc doesn't mean that they all have to.

Any video played in my firefox will always blink. My operating system is Mac OSx 10.6.8 running on intel core duo. 32 bit machine
