Eudora keeps crashing - any idea why

I just got new HD for MacBook running 10.6.3. The replacement HD from apple care for some reason was installed with 10.5.x so I did a restore by using carbon copy cloner via a good backup HD. I then ran diskwarrior to rebuild the HD, also disk utility with repair permissions. Ever since my Eudora [yes I am one of the few still using this ] keeps on crashing after a few minutes.
Anyone have an idea as to why? I tried deleting eudora and documents, then use time machine backup from mid june backup [as opposed to july backup just before replacing HD]. But after downloading all the emails/attachments, still keeps on crashing...
Appreciate help with this.

Here's some points about eudora to keep in mind when trouble shooting it. Since you said you restored from a (presumably) working backup you should not be having any problems but I'll mention this stuff anyhow.
One thing I recall about eudora when running on [snow] leopard was that it's "Getting Attention" preferences sounds should not be set to use eudora's own built in sounds. So make sure you use some of your system sounds (or any you might have in your own ~/Library/Sounds folder). Hopefully that will fix it. If not try the following experiment.
As a control experiment temporarily rename your ~/Documents/Eudora Folder. Do this while Eudora is not executing of course.
With the newly created Eudora folder and possibly Getting Attention sounds changes play around a little while to see if eudora is still crashing on you. I would assume (hope) it would not. That means something fouled up in your "real" Eudora Folder. Get rid of the one created by the experiment and rename your original real eudora folder back as "Eudora Folder". Now finding what's wrong in there is not going to be straight-forward.
Possible places that could break in the eudora folder are a mail box (in the Mail Folder), Eudora Settings (where all your preferences are kept), plugins in the Eudora Items, Eudora Filters, and Cache Folder. All you can do is replace each piece one by one until the crash goes away.

Firefox keeps crashing, no idea why.

So I recently switched from Opera to Firefox because they had a horrible updated that stripped all the features I loved. Anyways, the first week or so after using firefox it worked fine and never crashed, now recently it crashes almost every 30 minutes or so. I get a crash report asking me if I want to restart. I have no idea why it keeps crashing and I have tried closing all my tabs (I usually have about 6-7 open at all times), but the problem is still there. If you need any information ask and I'll give it. Thanks!

Photoshop Elements 12 keeps crashing - any ideas?

I have tried restarting my PC but it does not help. I am trying to do a photomerge and it crashes every time. Please help!

Hi mamma8084,
If I understand you correctly, did you mean that PSE 12 crashed and relaunched causing the loss of unsaved work you have done?
Try updating PSE12 to the latest patch and then check the performance.
You might also try check the performance in a new Admin user account.

Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).

Me: AFAIK, PS CC2014 is the only program that causes this error

Itunes crashes when iTunes Match runs its Step 3 (not before) - any ideas why and how to fix it?

Every time iTunes runs the iTunes Match, when iTunes MAtch gets to Step 3 - iTunes stops working - ie crashes. Any idea why and how to fix it? The songs are still uploaded to iCloud etc... but it crashe iTunes every single time

I cannot explain the failure, but I can tell you that I have a string of approx. 24 emails with Apple and a combined 10hrs of talk time with Apple customer reps that tried helping me precisely for the issue that iTunes Match would crash at Step 3 without fail. Apple even logged my Console and I was talking to an engineer that literally wrote part of the code for iTunes Match (that was the fourth and last level of customer care I was escalated to). The poor man almost quite his job, and I just about demanded a refund for my $25, since iTunes Match simply wasn't working.
Then I studied at a friend's place, and I noticed that all of a sudden, while iTunes was running in the background, half my library was already uploaded and things were progressing smoothly. It turns out that it had something to do with my modem specifically, as I had already hooked up my computer straight to the modem, taking the router (TimeCapsule) out of the equation. Nothing worked. Firewalls were turned off, no AntiVirus existed, and Apple engineers tried everything possible, incl. remote access on my computer, to get this to work. Nothing worked as long as I was connected to a Motorola Surboard.
At every other network, wether at Starbucks, my university, or at friends places, however, iTunes Match worked flawlessly.
After some research online, it turnes out that a handful of people with Motorola Surrboard Xtreme cable modems had similar issues. Eversince, I simply use my neighbors wifi should I need to upload songs, and I have no issues. Oddly enough, matching (not uploading) works just fine with my Motorola.
Don't ask me how or why, I am interested in computers and work with them a lot, but I am no engineer. I can tell you that simple scientific method pinpointed to the modem, and I haven't had issues since then.

I am experiencing network failures with my Airport Extremes: the main router is a 2nd Gen, the extension a 5th Gen. The 5th Gen keeps on losing connection with the main router. Any ideas why?

I am experiencing network failures with my Airport Extremes: the main router is a 2nd Gen, the extension a 5th Gen.
The 5th Gen keeps on losing connection with the main router and thus with the internet.
Any ideas why?

Is the second Extreme configured to "extend" the network created by the first? If so its position must be such that it has a strong wireless connection to the first Extreme. If it is at the limits of the first one's wireless range its connection will be tenuous. Place them closer together and determine if that makes a difference.

New songs and new audio book from Audible will not sync from my computer. Any idea why?

I updated my 4S to OS7. I am now unable to sync new songs and new audiobook from Audible from my computer. Any idea why?

Might be incompatible with iOS 7.
Keep in mind, Audible is not Apple software and Apple is not responsible for third party software compatibility.
Check the Audibile website for iOS 7 support.

Sometimes after putting my iMac to sleep, I can't get it to wake up and have to turn it off at the mains. Any ideas why?

Sometimes after putting my iMac to sleep, I cannot get it to wake up again. It's as if it's shut down and I have to turn it off at the mains and restart it. Any ideas why? Does this keep happening to anybody else?

That message means that you have to restore the iPad now. Something went wrong. You need to restore the iOS software and then restore from the backup.
Read this carefully and follow the instructions. Make sure that you restore from your backup at the end of the process. That is covered at the bottom of the support article.
