Cannot start Fiefox after last update, on windows XP, tried uninstall and install- still nothing.

OPerating system Windows XP
Anti-virus- McAfee
Updated to Firefox 7.0.1 -- have not been able to start/launch since. Tried uninstall and new install and still nothing. Tried to reboot-- nothing-- I double click and the hour glsss appears for a second or 2 and nothing happens.

Thanks JRSPNW I will have to give that a try. At the moment I just have not tried doing anything else it, but a system restore will probably be the route I will need to take eventually, or I will just carry on with out iTunes on my computer. The program has become such a pain the a$$. This version is the most user unfriendly it has ever been.

My version does not update to 6, I tried uninstall and install it but it does not let me anymore

I uninstall it, but when I'll try to install it again, this is what I get:

Flash CC doesn't start up after last update

Flash CC doesn't start up after last update. It said "Training en zelfstudie" (Training and self-stufy in Dutch) for the update.
Everything was working fine before the update, now if I try to start-up Flash solo,
it says: "Flash werkt niet meer" (Flash has stopped working), and quits.
As you can probably tell from the message, I'm on Windows 7.
Now here is interesting info: if I double click a previous movie, then Flash starts up fine and loads the previous movie.
However when I close it and the screen that should appear is the "new movie" dialog, flash hangs again.
So obviously something went wrong installing the new update, or the update doesn't work properly.
I'm now working with my pre-cc flash5.5 version, which I re-installed to avoid crashing flash every time I close a file.
My questions:
1- Where do I log this problem? (Or am I in the right place?)
2- Can I re-install the previous version, which worked fine? (I can live without tutorials etc.)
3- Can I try to re-install this version if the above is not possible and how do I go about doing that?

What fixed the problem for me was just reinstalling Flash CC. I thought I'd give it a try, because I couldn't find a message of anyone experiencing the same problem.
So I used the control panel to uninstall Flash, then I tried reinstalling.
Creative Cloud kept saying Flash is up to date, so you can't reinstall. If you click on the gear and choose Exit and then restart Creative Cloud it will take a few seconds, but the it will see the situation as it is and you can reinstall Flash.
After the reinstall the issue was gone.
Thanks for the other solutions, I think this is a handy resource for rolling back Flash if I ever do need it
and gives me more confidence in the creative cloud product.
Maybe Adobe will pick it up and make it easier for us 'normal' creative-cloud users to
pick which version we want. Like you can do in CVS systems.

Flash Plug in is crashing after recent upgrade. I tried uninstalling, and reinstalling, still crashing. Firefox and Plug-in are current. What else can I do?

Flash Plug in is crashing after recent upgrade. I tried uninstalling, and reinstalling, still crashing. Firefox and Plug-in are current. What else can I do?

What I suggest you do here is to use Adobe's uninstaller tool to uninstall Flash first of all: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html
Then reboot, go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and reinstall it.
I notice too that you have an outdated version of Shockwave For Director. You can update that via http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/

[solved] cannot start firefox after xulrunner update on oct 4

since upgrading yesterday i cannot start firefox.
the console gives the following error message:
Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.0.1 and 1.9.0.1.
A quick google search shows a gentoo bug with the same symptoms - the solution was recompiling firefox. Is anybody else having this problem?
edit: apparently i had firefox-branded installed and therefore didn't get the upgraded pacman package - could somebody please delete this post? thanks

Eclipse started hanging after last update

Hi, folks, a couple days ago I updated and today I tried to use eclipse but it is hardly usable since it hang every minute or less for about 15 secs. The cpu usage goes about 80%, nothing else hangs, the system is still usable. Do u have any idea what package might have done this? Before this update I last updated about 2 months ago I know this is way too much time without update, but I had to be sure my system is working cause I was working on a project, and couldn't afford downtimes. I am working on php project now, not using it for java if this is in some way relevant info. Eclipse is not installed through pacman, just downloaded. I am also using a -ck kernel if this is relevant also. Thanks.

Have you tried using the version from the repos?
If it needs to be compiled with php support, there's likely a version in the AUR.

Start up error message - Entry point xml TextReaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxm12.dll. Happened after Itunes up date I think. Have tried uninstalling and installing nothing works. Help please

At start up I get the error message - The procedure entry point xml TextReaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxm12.dll. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled but it does not fix the problem. Happened after Itunes update I think.

It's a simple fix and doesn't involve reinstalling anything.
With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the libxml2.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Restart the programme all should be well
In case that your OS is (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "libxml2.dll"
3. Open new windows explorer, to to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Paste file "libxml2.dll" to the location.
5. Restart the programme, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working I can't even open itunes I have tried uninstalling and installing, starting in safe mode but nothing seems to work. Please can anyone help me

I have recently bought a new laptop with windows 7 and when i have tried to install and open itunes i keep getting the message 'itunes has stopped working' itunes then shuts down before i can do anything to fix it. This happens every time I try to open itunes. I have tried uninstalling itunes and reinstalling it, starting itunes in safe mode. Nothing seems to work. Please can anyone help.

If and when I finally manage to open it, as soon as I click on a movie to watch, the message "itunes has stopped working" comes up.
Try the following user tip with that one:

Fire fox will not open and give the message that program is already running when it is not and i have to restart my computer. i am running windows xp and this problem started after the last up date. i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program

is this a known issue?

If you close Firefox properly the problem will practically disappear.
To close Firefox properly:
:<b>Closing Firefox</b> ''(#close_firefox)'', avoid getting <b>Firefox already running</b> messages:  To properly shutdown Firefox when multiple windows or closing the
last window use File → Exit/Quit (or Firefox button → Exit).  Closing Firefox with the [X] in the upper right corner closes the window ("Ctrl+W") but that does not necessarily close Firefox if it has subtasks running.  If you want to close and reopen Firefox use the "Restart" within Add-ons if you made a change requiring a restart, or install "[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/restartless-restart/ Restartless Restart]" ("Ctrl+Alt+R") which will allow you to take Firefox down and restart without having to check the Windows Task Manager to see if Firefox first actually ended. ([http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_hangs Firefox hangs])
In checking the Windows Task Manager be sure to check the "Process" tab not the "Application"tab/

Adobe PDF printer and "Start printing after last page is spooled"

Hi,
After calling the Belgian Support for Adobe Product, I'm trying to have some information here.
Hope to get some help.
We use acrobat pro XI on windows 7 client and when we print a test page with the "adobe pdf" print queue on network share, we get a printing error when the "start printing after last page is spooled" is selected in the advanced tab of the printer queue. (document is not generated, and stay in the spooler with an error).
This problem is not present if printed localy or when we use the "start printing immediately" or "print directly to the printer".
The support agent from adobe Belgium told me that the reason is generating adobe pdf on network share is not a supported operation. We have to save the document localy all the time.
Is it really an answer from Adobe ?
Do you have an other explanation ?
Thanks for your help,

Thanks for your very good explanation Dov.
We use Adobe livecycle for this kind of purpose.
The situation described is diffrent, but you completely repond and I will be able to have some element to find a solution.
In fact, I'm implementing a softwate called DeviceLock, used to control connected devices (usb, network, drive). But this software, once installed, change the local printer parameters from "print directly to the printer" to ""start printing after last page is spooled".
As we use redirected folder in our environment and users cannot use local drive (for user's data backup) you will understand the problem.
Of course, we should be able to force the correct settings back, But Devicelock seem to change this settings after policy refresh.
I have contact with Devicelock about this problem of course as their software modify the settings, but was looking for a reason why we were not able to use the "start printing after last page is spooled" parameters with adobe Printer.
Thanks for your explanation,
PS:The driver's dialog won't prevent you from setting “Start printing after last page is spooled” or “Print directly to the printer” but setting either of those options will cause the operations to fail as you note.
note that only "Start printing after last page is spooled" cause an error and this, only for network share location. The "print directly to the printer" or the "start printing immediately" work fine either on a local drive and a network share

I appear to have lost all my audiobooks from itunes and cannot download a new purchase to my ipod. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes but this has not helped - I am desperate as I depend on my ipod for listening to books

My ipod touch has lost touch with my itunes account. I appear to have lost all my audiobooks from itunes and a nook I downloaded from audible.com last week is on my itunes but I cannot syn it to my ipod. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes but this did not work and I now have a different screen with itunes which I am not familiar with. I need my ipod for audiobooks and podcasts because I have a visual impairment.

iTunes 11 does some thinks differently. See:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
or
iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
Also
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.

Itunes starts extremely slow after an update of windows 8.1.
It takes up to 10 minutus.
If I see the appliction log in event viewer then I see the following errors on the Bonjour service.
For instance:
Client application bug: DNSServiceResolve(a8:fa:d8:3a:1e:8f@fe80::aafa:d8ff:fe3a:1e8f._apple-mobdev2._t cp.local.) active for over two minutes. This places considerable burden on the network.
followed by
SendWakeupPacket error: sent -1 bytes: 10065
What can this be?
Already thanks,
John

I did all the step with save mode and that didn't gave the same result.
Then I created a new account and there itunes started up normally.
So I contued with the user section.
I removed the itunes directory from
c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Apple Computer\iTunes
This gave the same result in not starting up.
Then I removed the itunes directory from
c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes
The a popup appears that the Bonjour Service has been disabled.
I looked in services and saw that is was still running.
But I tried to restart this service and it took a long time to stop this service.
Even if I selected restart the Bonjour Service didn't start.
Manually starting was not a problem.
Clicking OK on the popup let itunes start quickly. And closing and starting it again was also quickly.
So Matt thanks for your answer.
If it happens again I have to see if it was the removing of the itunes directory from roaming or restarting the Bonjour Service.
