Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply.

I can't open Firefox. The home page doesn't come up, I just keep getting the Crash Reporter asking me to restart/quit but every time I do this the same message comes back. I've not been able to use Firefox for days now.
Since a few days we have a lot of crashes with [http://www.trusteer.com/product/trusteer-rapport Trusteer Rapport]. If you have this program, try to disable it and see if that stops the crashing.<br>
You can stop Rapport using Start Menu > Programs > Trusteer Rapport > Stop Rapport<br>
You can ask their helpdesk when an updated version of their product will be made available or, if you don't need this software, uninstall it.<br>
http://www.trusteer.com/support/en/report-problem<br>
If you do not have Rapport, then we need to have a crash report ID. When you send Mozilla a crash report it just puts it in a giant database. We have no way of looking it up without the Report ID. I have no idea what is wrong without looking up the crash report. Please get the Report ID of your latest crash report.<br>

Every time I start Firefox, the upgrade/signup page is displayed in one tab while google, my start-up page is displayed in another. How can I stop the firefox page from loading every time?

Words with friends app has a glitch where I loose sound constantly, so every time I re:download it, I'm having the same problem as its the same faulty app from iCloud.
I'm not seeing that problem with Words with Friends on my iPhone 5 with iOS 8.3. Check your sound settings.
Try the standard troubleshooting steps in this order:
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds). No data will be lost.
Restore: Connect your device to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory.
See here for more details on restore: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201252 -
Photoshop Elements 8 crashes every time I open Help menu
I just got a Bamboo Capture tablet accessory for my iMac from the Apple Store. It comes bundled with Adobe Photoshop Elements 8. I installed Elements, yet every time I try to open the HELP menu it crashes and an error message comes up saying
"Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 quit unexpectedly."
*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'launch path not accessible'
I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times.
I have an iMac running OS X Snow Leopard
Adobe won't offer any assistance unless I pay $39, even though I bought this product TODAY!Go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
com.adobe.PhotoshopElements.plist
Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 paths
Adobe Photoshop Elemetns 8 settings
Repair permissions and try again. Also, I hope you didn't install the driver from the disc that came with your tablet. Go to Intuos's website and download the latest version. -

Why do my bookmarks keep changing to the default every time I close Safari?
Why do my bookmarks keep changing to the default every time I close Safari and why does my history keep clearing?
I want to save my bookmarks for my favorite pages but every time I close Safari the default ones (Apple, iCloud, Facebook, Twitter, Wikipedia, Yahoo, News and Popular) re appear.
Basicaly I want Google instead of Twitter and Yahoo and I also don't want it to keep clearing my history.Step one is to log into a newly created admin user account and see if the problem persists.

I am trying to get into my Game Center app but every time I tap on the app it opens too a blank white screen. I have tried several times to reset my phone but I get the same result.
Hello there Sweebs44,
It sounds like you are tapping the Game Center app to open it, but the screen is blank. I recommend signing out of your account:
Go to Settings > Game Center, where you can:
Sign out (tap your Apple ID)
From: iPhone User Guide
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph6c493cac
Then close all the running apps:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone sign back into your account and try again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

How do i make a tab active and make it stay that way always. If i put a website in my home page in order for the tabs to open automatically in that same homepage , this setting is not working, every time I open a tab , the window appears white .
By default Firefox opens a blank page for a new Tab, there is no setting to change that action without installing an add-on.

Every time I open a new Safari page on my MacBook Pro, it load the one(s) that are already open, instead of a new page. it's 8.0.2. I already went to Preferences and it says new page will open to Favorites....but it doesn't.
Hello beany1818,
Also check in Safari Preferences and look in the Safari Opens with and make sure that it is set to “with a new window” and not “all the windows from your last session”. Take a look at the article for more information.

every time I open a new safari page and scroll down it jumps back to the top of the page. Happens super inconsistently and not on every web page. Tried all the dum dum moves like restarting computer and changing scroll direction in track pad. Anyone else have a similar issue? mac book pro, newest version of OSX. Thanks all!
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.
