Ever since installing "silverlight" as requested by computer message I have been unable to send emails on firfox...not a problem with safari.

Got a computer message about upgrading to something called silverlight. A message now covers bar for reply, send, forward, etc. and I can't send emails on firefox. This is not a problem when I use Safari.

Not enough free space on the startup disk can slow the system down.
Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
For startup issues...  open System Preferences > Users & Groups - Login Items. Delete any apps listed there then restart your mac.
And disable the Lion "resume" feature.
Open System Preferences > General
Deselect:   Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps
And Spotlight may be indexing... you can turn that off > Turning Off Spotlight | Mac Tricks And Tips

  • Ever since installing iCloud and Lion my computer is slow or freezes.  The color wheel comes on and My work stops.  I have only a small window of time where my computers will function normally during the day. I know many others that have the same problem.

    Ever since installing iCloud and Lion my computer is slow or freezes.  The color wheel comes on and My work stops.  I have only a small window of time where my computers will function normally during the day. I know many others that have the same problem. I'll get 20-30 minutes of work done and then a sync or something comes on, the color wheel of death shows up, and my productivity is shot.  I have to shut the computer down the hard way!  when it comes back up, it is still either frozen or slow.  I've checked in at the genius bar and all they say is that there have been some problems that Apple is trying to fix.  It effects Mail, Contacts, Safari, Calendar....yeah, pretty much everything.  My iPhone and iPad are not effected as much so I end up doing what I can with them.  I've seen the blogs out there and understand that many have the same problem.  I have been waiting to read about a fix but I have found nothing!  Any ideas?

  • TS3992 I am trying to do an icloud backup from my computer.  I have been unable to do a backup from a wifi as I keep getting message that backup could not be done.  What is  the secret to doing it from my computer?

    I am trying to do an iCloud backup from my computer.  I have been unable to do a backup from a wifi as I keep getting message that it cannot be completed.  What is the secret to doing this from my computer, with my iphone plugged into same?

    How are you trying to do it from your computer?  Try plugging it into your charger while connected to wifi, then either lock the screen and wait (it should backup up ever 24 hours) or go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and tap Back Up Now.

  • Since last weekend (3-15-15) I have been unable to send/receive text messages with a friend who has Sprint service. The messages send with no errors on either side, but neither side is receiving the messages. Is anyone else having any similar issues?

    Since last weekend (3-15-15) I have been unable to send/receive text messages with a friend who has Sprint service. The messages send with no errors on either side, but neither side is receiving the messages. It seems to be only this one person affected by this issue, everyone else that I've tried sending messages to has responded with no trouble. Is anyone else having any similar issues?

    Retrohacker, Your text messages are too important to be missed! Let's figure this out, together. Are you able to successfully make and receive calls from your friend? Which phone do you have with us? Any new messaging applications or changes that you can recall on the phone since this issue began?

  • I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO SEND AN E MAIL FOR 3 WEEKS NOW ON RECENTLY INSTALLED FIREFOX

    I RECENTLY BOUGHT AN APPLE MAC AIR, and was using Safari as a browser. I had problems with Hotmail loading and was unable to play my Zynga game, which I use as I am disabled and partially housebound.
    I called my Internet Service Provider (Plusnet) who advised me to install Firefox as my browser, which I did, with great success. Everything worked perfectly including Hotmail and my game.
    However, for the last 2 - 3 weeks I have been unable to send an e-mail on Hotmail at all, although I can read my Inbox.
    My friend has a similar problem, as he installed Firefox at my recommendation, although he is able to send an e-mail, he cannot make any attachments.
    Please try to fix this problem as soon as possible.
    Thank you.
    Rosemary Fraser
    P.S. I AM ABLE TO SEND E MAILS ON HOTMAIL USING SAFARI, BUT CANNOT PLAY MY GAME, WHICH IS WHY I SWITCHED TO FIREFOX.
    I DO NOT WANT TO KEEP SWITCHING BROWSERS FOR DIFFERENT FACILITIES - WOULD PREFER TO STAY WITH FIREFOX AS I CAN PLAY MY GAME.

  • HT4428 Since updating the software to version 5.3 I have been unable to use my Apple TV due to HDCP issue.

    Since updating the software to version 5.3 I have been unable to use my Apple TV due to an HDCP issue. I have eliminated the HDMI cable as the problem problem. My Television is HDCP compliant. And prior to updating my Apple TV to the current version all content was availble and streaming beautifully.
    Is it possible to revert to the previous software update version?

    If you can't use another card, how about redeeming iTunes gift certificates on it instead?

    But you can send an e-mail without an attachment OK?
    If you can, have the admins take a look at the ActiveSync logs. Something's definitely not right. I can't imagine what it would be on the phone, though assuming the Exchange account is set up the same on all of the devices.

  • TS4062 windows xp platform.  since updating to itunes 10.7.0.21 I have been unable to sync my iphone 3g via the usb cable.  it shows up in my computer, but not in itunes

    I have run itunes diagnostics and when it gets to connectivity test - ports, it says no iphone found.  I followed the troubleshooting steps there, but have been unable to resolve this problem. I have also tried:
    1.  Stopping and restarting the apple mobile device program.
    2.  Deleting temporary files.
    3.  Checking the registery files.
    4.  Uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 2 times.
    5.  Used msconfig to disable start up items that could be interfering.
    I'm tired of waiting for itunes 11, hoping that it might resolve my problem.
    Is there a place where i can download the previous version of itunes 10.6 to see if this may help?
    Thanks for any other ideas.

    I tried:
    01. Rebooting PC
    02. Rebooting iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad 2, iPad 3
    03. Stoppng and restarting Apple Mobile Support service
    04. Deleting backup in iTunes
    05. Buying music and transferring purchases
    06. Transferring photos
    07. Buying app and transferring purchases
    08. Deleteing and reinstalling iTunes
    09. Backup to the iCloud (failed as well)
    10. WIFI sync
    11. Return the iPod Touch to factory settings and reinstall from backup
    12. Return the iPod Touch to factory settings and install as new device
    ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WORKED !!!  I still cannot backup because iTunes cannot start a session.
    My devices are completely vulnerable to loss.
    I have spent hours searching the Internet trying to find a solution.
    I have concluded that the iTunes software or its driver are at fault.

  • Since upgrading to iOS 7.0 on my 3G iPad I have been unable to send SMS's, is anyone else experiencing this problem?

    I have recently upgraded my 3G iPad2 to IOS 7.0 and I have since then been unable to send SMS's (not using iMessage). Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

    Thanks everyone, I thought that I had lost some functionality since upgrading as I can only send messages via iMessage and in our household there are 4 iOS devices and whenever anyone sends a message they do not receive the reply but it does come up on my iPad ( I don't always carry my iPad) so it can be hours before realising that the message has been received. The only solution I have is to turn off iMessage on the iPad and then everyone receives their messages normally.

  • Since updating to the latest version of iTunes, I have been unable to sync ANY of my devices (iPod

    I recently updated to the latest version of iTunes.  Since updating, iTunes does not recognize any of my devices (iPod or iPhone). 
    When I plug in my iPhone it doesn't even recognize that it is plugged into the computer (although the cord works and the USB port is good).
    When I plug in my iPod (on the same cord) an error message pops up in iTunes and immediately kicks/ejects. "An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly..."
    Please help!

  • Since the latest update to OX I have been unable to download the contents of some emails because pages does not support the font they are created in. Is there a fix for this?

    Hi, since I installed the latest update on my Mac I have been unable to open the contents of some emails because it is saying that pages does not recognise the font. For example it is saying 'some features aren't supported, the font Calibri isn't available on OS X. It was replaced with TrebuchetMS' This means that I cannot open letters from my daughters school. Is there any way round this other than getting rid of this nightmare MAC and going back to Windows!?

  • I installed OSXYosemite 10.10.3 and have been unable to access my photos in iPhoto

    I installed OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 and have been unable to access my photos on iPhoto - in fact, I have  been unable to even get iPhoto to open.  I read that I should download iPhoto 9.6.1 but have been unable to even find it.  There was a suggestion about going to users and groups and creating a new user, then trying to go to applications, purchases, and clicking on "update" - that did not work.  Help.

    On OS X Yosemite 10.10.3, Photos for OS X has replaced iPhoto in terms of your main Photo application.
    While iPhoto is still technically on your computer, it is not available as a separate download from the Mac App Store anymore, unless it is under your Purchased Tab in the Mac App Store
    You can import your iPhoto Library to Photos and all events (iPhoto Events), albums, etc. etc. will be the same.
