Cannot close first tab (LH end one) with other open ones are closeable.

Cannot close first tab (LH end one) but others are closeable. Downloading indicator on tab continues to rotate indefinitely - windows under all tabs operate normally.
Opening an additional Firefox copy allows all tabs to work normally within that copy

I had this same problem for some time now. In another Mozilla Firefox forum page related to this search one user said to disable the add on "Invisible Hand". I did that and rebooted and have multiple pages open now with multiple tabs and I could shut down the first tab on all the open windows. I think the "Invisible Hand" add-on s the culprit, at least in my case.

Cannot close multible tabs, system freezes and have to close firefox, but when i have multible tabs open ,cannot close individual tabs.

after Firefox is loaded and open ,I open another tab. I can view the site but when finished I cannot close the tab and if I open other tabs I cannot close them either when finished, I have to close Firefox and reopen Firefox. I checked all settings but still the problem exist. When I use internet explorer this problem does not appear, I can open multiple tabs and close each one separately, they do not freeze up like they do with Firefox. Help Please
I have Firefox version *.0.

hi thanks for that info,but I tried the first help email I received and that one did the trick.Tahanks again for your in put.

I cannot close a tab by clicking on the "x" - nor can I open a tab from the tab bar

On the tab bar, FF opens multiple "new tab" tabs. No matter what I do I cannot close these tabs, or any other tab, by clicking on the "x". Also, I cannot access these tabs by clicking on them.

Note that the X is a close button and that the new tab button is styled as a plus (+) sign.
You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar. 
You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button that shows as a plus sign (+) from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar New Tab button. 
If you can't find the New Tab button then click the "Restore Default Set" button in the Customize window. 
If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible space to the left of it. 
You can check for problems with the localstore.rdf file.

Cannot close safari tabs

when i open tabs in safari i cannot close the tabs i can only close the entire window. what can i do to fix it? thanks

Hello rico:
Are you trying to close the tabs by clicking on the little "X?"
Run repair permissions as a precaution.
Close Safari, trash the Safari preference file (com.apple.safari.plist), open Safari, and reenter your personal preferences.

I have an airport express and want to know how to set up two different wireless networks. One with 5GHZ and one with 2.4GHZ so different devices can connect to either.

I have an airport express and want to know how to set up two different wireless networks. One with 5GHZ and one with 2.4GHZ so different devices can connect to either. I have an iphone 4 that will not connect to 5ghz.
thank you!

Your AirPort Express is already providing two separate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, but each band is using the same wireless network name.
This is the default setup for the AirPort Express, which is recommended for most users. The theory here is that devices will automatically connect to the best quality signal based on their capabilities and distance in relation to the AirPort Express.
It is possible to assign a different name to the 5 GHz band, and then "point" devices at that network to connect. Some users swear by this option.....(I am not one of them).... but you might want to give it a try to see how it works for you.
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the AirPort Express
Click Edit in the smaller window that appears
Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next window
Click Wireless Options near the bottom of the next window
Enter a check mark next to 5 GHz Name.....which will automatically add "5 GHz" to the network name....so you can identify it
Click Save, then click Update and wait a full minute for the Express to restart
Now you will need to "point" your 5 GHz capable devices at the 5 GHz network name. 2.4 GHz devices will connect to your "other" network name.

I have a iMac and want to know if I can add an additional hynix memory to it? It currently has one with an open slot next two it.

I have a iMac and want to know if I can add an additional hynix memory to it? It currently has one with an open slot next two it.

You can install up to 6 GBs of RAM. You have two RAM slots so you could max out the machine by installing one 2 GB module and one 4 GB module. The largest supported module is 4 GBs, but you could use only one. Best memory performance would be attained by installing two 2 GB modules to provide 4 GBs of RAM. Installing two matching modules implements dual-channel memory that will provide a small increase in memory speed.
Sorry for my memory: Good places for RAM are OWC and DataMem. You do not have to use Hynix RAM. Any RAM will be fine as long as it meets the computer's requirements which are outlined in the section of your use manual for adding memory.

HT2515 Does iChat work with other users that are on other types of smartphones? or only Mac phones and Mac mail, contacts, etc?

Does iChat work with other users that are on other types of smartphones? or only Mac iPhones and iMac Mail, Contacts, etc?

Hi,
The Messages Beta will Send iMessage to iPhones (Messages replaces iChat)
iChat can SMS to phones
It needs the computer to be listed as if it in the United States and contacting a Phone that is on a Carrier in the United States that is accepting SMS forwarding from AIM
You list the Buddy as AIM and then +plus their number as in +123456789
The computer can be made to "think" it is in the United States in System Preferences > International (or Text a Language in Lion) then Formats tab.
The Phone has to be a US phone with all the trimmings about AIM's SMS forwarding.

When using firefox and each time I open a new tab I end up with a split screen and it is annoying. How so I fix it.

I open firefox. Go to website then where there is a + sign I open a new tab. A new tab comes up but then splits the screen into two with a new tab in the middle and I end up with 3 small split screens in the one instead of 3 separate tabs.because it is doing that i cannot then get a full screen and go about my usual business. Lately there seems to be numerous problems with fire fox loading also. it continues to come up with page not found and try again. I hit try again and then it may find the page. these are on sites that I access daily and have done so for several years now. Never before have I had so much trouble with fire fox. Not only I but we have four computers accessing the internet ...have done for some time and never had this problem but everyone is suddenly experiencing the same problem. The only thing new that has been put on the main computer is a K9 protection thing recently and I am wondering could that have anything to do with these issues and if not is fire fox having tech issues . How can these problems??

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions 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.

Cannot close a tab

I have Firefox 3.6.12. In the last couple of days I have been having problems cosing tabs. I click on the cross on the tab but nothing happens. It only happens occasionaly on 1 tab. I can close other tabs in the session without a problem.
It is not specific to any particular website.
Clsoing Firefox and relaunching it seems to clear the problem.

I reinstalled 3.6.12 again today - and now I can close the first tab. Not sure if it is going to be messed up again. The other thing I noticed when the first tab is stuck is that it starts with session history also not working for that tab and back button quits working.

Is there a download and convert in a single step option in the flashdownloader 2.6.8. add-on? I end up with two files, one downloaded original and one converted to my chosen format.

Files are downloaded and only then encoded, so I end up with two files in the drive.

That has been like that since Firefox 3.0 was released in June 2008 - 7 major version releases thus far with it like that and the developers haven't changed it - so I wouldn't count on it.
When I want to save a duplicate bookmark, I just "grab" the website image in the Location Bar and drag it into the Bookmarks Sidebar, into the folder where I want it placed. On Windows and Linux, { Ctrl + B } opens the sidebar and then just drag.

HT4847 I have two iCloud accounts, one with 10GB and one with 20GB...how can I merge them into the 20GB plan?

I have two iCloud plans. One with 10GB that backs up my 1Phone and iPad. I also have a 20GB plan for my iMAC and MAC BookPro. How can I merge them so that I only have one plan and one iCloud to manage? My first instinct is to delete the one on my iPhone/iPad and add the iMac plan, but I don't want to do it without an expert opinion.

No, accounts cannot be merged. Am I an expert? I only know what I've read here numerous times regarding merging of plans - the answer is always emphatically NO. Since this is a user-to-user forum (Apple doesn't participate here), you'll have to do some searching about on this topic and either accept or reject the "common" advice.

Everytime I open a new tab, Firefox automatically refreshes the currently open ones.

When I attempt to open a new tab, Firefox automatically refreshes the already opened and loaded websites in other tabs.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Cannot close first tab (LH end one) with other open ones are closeable.
