Every time I open Firefox a window comes up that says "checking compatability of addons". That takes a few seconds and then "Welcome to Firefox" window opens which I have to close to get to my homepage. Help!

See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
It is also possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache, extensions.rdf) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry.<br />
New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is an update.

I was on a website all of a sudden my screen freezes I was able to get out of that screen after a few second and then noticed all my app icon disappeared I have an IPhone 5. Has this happened to anyone before?

That is very strange! Have you been able to get your apps icons back now? Have you attempted a soft reset by holding the power button and home button at the same time until the phone restarts? Keep me posted with the results!

Every time I open iTunes I have to agree to the licence . . . . and MORE!

Windows 7 64 bit / iTunes 11.0.4.4
Every time I open iTunes, I have to perform the following repetitive steps;
-Accept the license agreement
-Click Agree on the Welcome Screen
-Decline the default player offer even though I have checked the "do not show" box
-Select "Show Menu Bar"
-Select "Show Side Bar"
This is getting real tiresome. Help in resolving this issue appreciated - IM

I found the solution and copy/pasted the stept to take. I got it from another subject related to the problem on this thread and it works for me.

Re: 'iTunes Software Licence Agreement' every time I open iTunes

yep, let's investigate the preference files possibility. First, quit iTunes and log back into your usual user account. Next, we'll have to set your PC up to view hidden files and folders. From the Start menu, click Open.
In the Organize menu, click Folder and Search Options.
Click the View tab.
In the "Advanced settings" pane under "Hidden files and folders" make sure that the "Show hidden files and folders" option is selected.
Click OK. Now, in Computer, open "Local Disk C:".
Open the "Users" folder.
Open the folder with the name of your usual user account.
Open the "AppData" folder.
Open the "Local" folder.
Open the "Apple Computer" folder. Drag the "iTunes" folder you see in there out onto the Desktop. Now launch iTunes. (This will cause iTunes to rebuild that set of preference files.) *The license agreement will appear for you again.* (That is expected behavior when that particular set of preference files is being rebuilt.)
Cheers all

Every time i open excel i have to add Excel addin manually

Hi All,
Every time i open excel i have to add Excel addin manually is this a know issue.
Excel Addin 11.1.1.2
OS : Windows Vista 64 bit
Office 2007 32 bit
Regards,
Mink

I'm guessing you did an uninstall, right?
If not, please try it. If so, take a look at the penultimate post in this thread: http://www.network54.com/Forum/58296/thread/1214384130/Disabling+Excel+Add-in+from+Excel+Startup. It will show you the registry settings for 11x add-in. I would make sure those were gone as well.
Then the old reinstall game under an admin id.
And this is so stupid, it probably doesn't bear mentioning, but be sure that no instances of EXCEL.EXE are running when you do all of the above.

Cameron Lackpour

For some strange reason the songs in my library are multiplying. For example, I really only have 4,000 songs but every time I open itunes I have 6,8,10,000 songs! Any one else have this problem. How do I stop that from happening?

This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

I click on a yahoo new article, it displays for a few seconds and then I get a blank screen.

It happens only in Firefox,not explorer. When I click on a yahoo news article, it displays for a few seconds and then goes to a blank screen. I've run virus scans, eliminated all cookies, all to no avail.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

When I try starting my iPod touch, it won't start; the Apple logo comes up for a few seconds, and then, it just shuts off. I tried to charge it through an outlet; the iPod didn't even charge, so I tried to restore my settings on my computer. iTunes won't

when i try starting my IPod it won't start, the Apple logo comes up for a few seconds,and then. it just shut off . I tried to charged it through an outlet, the IPod didn't eve charger so I tried to restore my setting in my computer, i tunes won't

But that requires the computer to see the ipod. I am having the same problem and I keep being told to restore it, but you have to either get the ipod to turn on or have the computer see it in order to so that. Right now I have a pretty useless 32GB ipod touch cos I cant get the thing to turn on! I can only get the apple logo for like maybe 20 seconds and it goes away. Ive charged it for days on a wall charger, on the computer usb charger, and on a speaker charger. Nothing works.

Is this normal? Should I be worried? Is my GPU defective?

Ipod touch 3rd generation will connect to my wifi for a few seconds and then nothing will load. help please?

I have an ipod touch 3rd generation 64gb and it has iOS 5.1.1 and it will connect to my WiFi for a few seconds and then nothing will load. It says I have full connection bbut nothing works. I have 2nd generation ipod and it connects fine. Along with my laptop and xbox 360. I have tried downgrading it and restoring it from itunes. I also tried forgetting the network and inputting it myself but it sti does the same thing. I even tried resetting my wireless modem but it still didnt make a change. I really could use some help. I can't call apple cause im no longer under warranty.

Reset the iPod and connect to its syncing computer. It it shows in iTunes restore the iPod.
Next see if placing the iPod in recovery mod will allow iTunes t see the iPod so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

How come when every time i open ff i have the same 2 tabs instead of the one I choosed in my options

'''''texte en gras'''''
in "option internet" & "general" & i chose "new tab" for my home page, but every time i open firefox i have two tabs that loads, one is the tab i asked for, but another one creep in there, it is an old web page where i downloaded something from there after installing firefox, i don't know if it is because i went to that site right after dowloading firefox 6.0 it is like the web page stuck there with my home page and i tried everything but nothing works...
please forgive my english, i am not bilingual yet...thank you

Another user had a second tab opening and it was caused by one of his extensions.
You can check for nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the Add-ons page and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that get rid of the extra tab?

How do I count and display events every few seconds and then convert the counted values into events per minute? (for a heart rate monitor)

Hi everyone,
I'm building a heart rate monitor as a final year project with my lab partner using the NI USB-6009 and Labview 2009. We have managed to obtain a signal using a photo transciever, smooth it out and count the events, however the count is incremental.
We wish to count the number of pulses we obtain for a few seconds (5-10 for example) and then use this value to obtain a pulse rate in beats per minute (e.g. 10 pulses in the first 10 seconds would give an estimated BPM of 60 etc etc).
Does anybody have ides on how we could implement this? We have tried timed loops, elapsed time VI's and other things but nothing gives us what we need.
Thanks in advance for any help that is offered.
Jeshua Graham.

We are very new to Labview. We are taking a raw signal from our DAQ and then using VIs to filter and then trigger counts on rising edges. I have attached our vi file to this post for you to look at (I hope that is what you mean by code).

If firefox starts, the startingpage (whitch is google) shows up for a few seconds, and then go away, and i get a white background with nothing on

Firefox is gisteren beginnen raar doen, je opent de browser, de startpagina komt er 2 seconden op, en dan verdwijnt die, ik krijg dan een wit scherm, en het is zo bij elke pagina die ik open, (facebook, youtube....) Wat kan dit probleem zijn?

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

For a few months now my ical keeps jumping back and forth. It's very hard to use my calendar as it doesn't open on today, it may stay a few seconds and then it goes backwards to random dates and forwards. It doesn't sit still so I can see what I have on

My iCal is driving me nuts.
It won't sit still when I am looking at my calender. I try holding it still with one finger, two fingers and it just moves. It jumps to random dates and I have no confidence in it any longer. I use my calendar all the time and this just isn't good enough.
I have gone into the apple store and they said they hadn't seen that before. It did it while I was there. They restored the phone and it didn't make any difference.
I have turned the calendar off in settings - mail - icloud - deleted and then turned back on again. It didn't help.
I put the Google Calendar app on in the hopes I would have a calendar that wouldn't frustrate me and it is so slow in responding, I have deleted it.
I see online that many others are having the same problem with their iCal.
It would be great to know the solution.
Please help

Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!
