close Firefox, restart it says firefox can not start - already running, tried deleting the parent.lock it doesn't exist. I try to turn off my computer it says WidgiBho needs to close, I tell it to close but computer never shuts down

Did you try to wait a bit longer before restarting Firefox to give Firefox more time to close down completely?

  • I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found. Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

    I'm running iTunes 10.5 on my Macbook Pro and software 4.1 on my 2g iPod touch and having problems getting photo's to sync. Same error, "iPod can't be synced req'd file can't be found". Tried deleting the photo cache, restoring the iPod etc but to no avail.

    Try here:
    iTunes: Unable to sync photos
    Usually deleting the iPod Photo Cache Folder works. Note that if you sync via the folder method, make sure you dlete all the ifolders since :
    The iPod Photo Cache stores the photos that are optimized for display on your iPod, iPad, or iPhone. The location of this folder depends on the syncing options you select. In iTunes, if you change the selection in the “Sync Photos From” pop-up menu, a new iPod Photo Cache folder will be created (and the previous folder will remain).

  • Can not start SAP instance after change the profile

    Dear all
    We use system copy to build SAP system.
    Source
    Ecc 6.0(64 bit)
    Windows Server 2008 SP2
    SQL Server 2008 SP2
    Target
    Ecc 6.0(64 bit)
    Windows Server 2008 SP2
    SQL Server 2008 SP2
    In target system, we want to use the instance profile as source system,
    but after copy from source system we find that if parameter em address_space_mb = 512 in the profile,
    we can not start SAP instance.
    Could anyone explain it?
    Best regards
    Shirley

    Hi Shirley,
    I assume the hardware is less on the target than on the source or they are different at least in terms of hardware specs
    If the system is not starting, check the dev_disp.log, the stderr* files, and the dev_w0 log from the work directory to find the exact error. Does the system start if you increase or decrease this value?
    Regards,
    Paul

  • Firefox will not start -already running- but not visible in askbar - W-7

    Asin XP, now on windows 7, firefox occasionally would not restart and I had to open task manager to end it.
    THIS TIME, it does not appear in taskmanager. I uninstalled, restarted the cpu, and installed anew. same issue.
    Firefox will not run -- get the window saying firefox is already running. . .
    How can I end it???????
    I'd rather not use IE.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Using firefox on a computer with both winXP and Ubuntu, having the Firefox profile-map in a separate partition, I would like not to have to delete the "parent lock" each time I want to use Firefox.

    I have Firefox in the Windowspartition of my computer and in the Linuxpartition of my computer, I have a third partition where I store my personal data, such as my Firefox-profile-map and my download-map.
    If I don't manually delete "Parent Lock" Firefox won't start saying that there is already a session open.
    It would be better not to have this parentlock-system.

    It would be better to use two separate profiles for each Operating System and sync the data between the two as there may be other problems as well with the caches that current Firefox versions use and other files that store OS dependent file paths.

  • TS1589 when I open airport utility it performs a scan and then say it can not detect a wireless device.  The rest of the screen is blank; all menus are blanked out.  What do I do?

    I just replaced our wireless modem with a new one; our airport extreme is now flashing amber light.  When I get into airport utility it attempts to scan for the device but can not detect it.  The utility screen is blank - nothing to select or configure.  The menus are also blank.  What do I need to do?

  • Can not start Weblogic server after Reordering the provider

    Dear Geeks
    I have ran into big trouble. I defined a new authentication provider in the weblogic and set the Control Flag to 'Required'.
    I didn't realise that the user weblogic doesn't exist in the AD and because of AD's naming convention, we can not create a user named as weblogic.
    Since, the installation was done using the weblogic user and the authentication provider has been changed, is there a way to start the server back up.
    It is too critical and i am running out of time.
    I would appreciate if anyone out there could help.
    Thanks
    Regards
    ACM

    Hi,
    Goto Domain_home/config directory. Take one backup of config.xml, edit config.xml make Control Flag to SUFFICIENT against authentication provider that you have added. try to restart the server.
    please mark if this helps.

  • HT3529 I cannot send a text message to one specific friend when they have iMessage turned off. It should go through as a text message instead of an iMessage but they never receive it. It only happens with this one person and I can receive, but not send.

    Please help! I can't send a text message to one specific friend of mine when he has iMessage turned off. I can receive his texts, but he never receives mine. Both are iPhones, obviously, different carriers which shouldn't matter. Neither of us got new phones. MMS is on. All if a sudden it just happened. No major changes other than him turning iMessage off, due to a nosy brother who shares his iPad. What am I missing??

    I do have SMS on. What else could it possibly be?

  • IMac will not start following OS X 10.9.4 update - takes 30 minutes to load and then turns off

    iMac will not start following OS X 10.9.4 update - takes 30 minutes to load with spinning wheel and progress bar and then when it appears to be finished it powers off?

    Thanks for the suggestion - this was the 1st thing I tried but it does not appear to work either. I'm still getting the 30 minute spinning wheel and slow moving progress bar on a grey background - even if I try to start the iMac in 'safe' mode!

  • The firefox setup 3.6.3 will not start on windows xp after the extracting process

    What I Did first was I Downloaded mozilla firefox 3.6.3 from mozilla.com for windows and after I run It , the installation process asked me to run it or cancel it to which I ran it and after it extracted , it just wouldn't show up on the desktop but is visible in windows task manager [my computer is windows xp]and I am Logged on as the administrator as well.

    thanks chris for the reply back,i have solved the massive problem i have had with MF 3.6.3 it ws COMODO FREE FIREWALL i had a sneaking suspicion all a long it could have been that but was not sure?,my pc had slowed down since installing comodo i am pretty sure of that,there were lags and pauses ect ect on general usage of the pc even though cpu usage was ok?,so maybe if many pc users that have comodo firewall installed they might like to try a change to another firewall and see if it helps,i went back to OUTPOST FREE FIREWALL which i had for ages without ANY problems whatsoever.

  • HT1918 iTunes store says I can not use my credit card for the store although it's the same card I've used for years

    The itunes store says "this card cannot be used with the iTunes store. Please use another payment method". It's the same card I've always used, it's valid, up to date, and in good standing, and works everywhere else. What' up with this? I don't want to use a different card.

  • I updated the system on my I pad yesterday. Now I can not start my I pad. The screen is black, if I hold the button on the right side, first the Apple logo starts, than immediately the I-tunes Logo with a "Plug" sign comes up. That stays on for ever. What

    I updated my I pad yesterday with the ISO 7.04 . Now it just has a black screen. When I hold the button on the right hand down for 10 seconds, I first very briefly get the Apple Logo, than immediately the I-Tunes sign with a plug sign. I cannot get anything else working. I did not have I-tunes on my i-pad since the file is large, but have it on my MAC . So how can I get my I-pad working again????

    This solved all my problems. It took a while, about 87 minutes for the complete "restore to factory setting" and after that about 30 minutes to put all my contacts etc. back on.
    It did'nt matter how long it took, I have my I-Pad back and that is great.
    I really do appreciate your help. Thank you so much.
