Every time my PC shuts down I need to reinstall Thunderbird on Vista. Why?

Thunderbird works fine, but when I shut down my PC (running Vista) none of the links to open the programme work and I need to reinstall. The folders I set up are still there after the reinstall, as are the messages!
Not sure what to do!
TIA :-)

That sounds like Vista rolling back to a known good state on restart. I think you need to check the health of your operating system and it's computer (Memory and Hard Disk particularly)

I use speeddial addon and it now keeps going off every time I close firefox and I need to reinstall it every time. What can I do to stop this happening? Thanks!

My homepage now says
XML Parsing Error: no element found
Location: chrome://speeddial/content/speeddial.xul
Line Number 1, Column 1
every time I open firefox.
I then have to reinstall speeddial every time I start up. This never used to happen before and I don't think I've changed any settings.

Been in touch with the author of the product and got the following reply:
The problem is the SiteAdvisor extension that McAfee installs; go to Tools > Add-ons, in the resulting panel select "Extensions", locate SiteAdvisor, click on it to select, and then click the "Disable" button; Speed Dial will work perfectly after that.
I already contacted them to attempt to fix the problem, but no reply so far. The problem happens before any Speed Dial code is executed, so I don't think I can fix it on my side.
Don't have the problem any more, note I had a McAfee update just before the problem started happening.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Have to reset firefox every time computer is shut down for fast speed

Firefox is slow in responding, I have attempted to reset, which works when computer is reset initial time. However when computer is restarted, returns to slow scrolling issue.

Have you disabled hardware acceleration? (not solved by reset is usual)
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]

I have a Macbook Air (11-inch Mid 2012) that is running OS X Yosemite. Every time that I shut down the computer, then turn it back on I receive a notification as it logs in that says "You shut down your computer because of a problem".

I can't find out what that problem is. Any advice? Any ideas even as to what it might be? I haven't heard about this happening elsewhere.

Installed latest iMovie Update 9.0.6 and crashes every time on opening. Do I need to reinstall?

I installed this update for iMovie 9.0.6 released on 6-12-12 using Software Update and the window opens but before the projects are loaded it crashes. MacBookPro Intel Core i5, OSX v. 10.7.4. I tried restarting computer and ran Disk Utility but problem persists. How do I troubleshoot the problem? Should I reinstall the app? It was one of the largest updates I have ever installed (1 GB) so don't know if that caused a problem.

This is just a guess, but mine loaded OK. I have both iPhoto and Aperture. I updated both the iPhoto and Aperture Libraries before opening iMovie for the first time. When I opened iMovie it optimized all iMovie Events as well as all the iPhoto and Aperture videos.
So my recommendation would be to update iPhoto or Aperture if you use them and then try opening it again.
If that does not work, I would suggest contacting Apple at the "Contact Us" link at the bottom right of this page.

After start-up from sleep mode, Mail 6.2 shuts down and needs to be rebooted

After starting my iMac (Mountian Lion OS) from sleep mode and then staring Mail, Mail will crash (shut down) and needs to be restarted. This does not happen every time but enough to be annoying. Does anyone else also experience this and is there a fix? I have sent problem reports to Apple but they just seem to go into a black hole with no response. I would appreciate any help or advice. Thanks in advance.

I am also seeing the symptoms of this on my large (3500+) network of macs. We have seen it happen on MacBooks and MacBook Pros. I am curious to know do you have multiple airports in your environment or a single airport?
Also have you found any way to mitigate these effects (i.e does it still happen if you go to the apple menu and choose the sleep command)
Just curious, I want to find a solution to this because it seems to be very similar to what our users are seeing.

I final piece for me in the jigsaw following on from this
http://www.care4pcs.co.uk/2012/10/how-to-be-happy-gmail-user-on-iphone-or.html
is to turn off wifi when you do not need it. When I leave the house I turn off wifi, because the majority of the times when my iPhone has got very hot and crashed is when I am away from home. I suspect that if the iPhone is in the vicinity of public wifi (wheather secure or not secure) it will try and connect, even if you have 'automatically join known networks' set to off. This is easy of course if you have an unlimited data contract for your iPhone. I may be wrong, but it is working for me. It makes sense for me because it is another way of reducing the work the processor (and battery) has to do and therefore reduces the chance of overheating.
Having said that, I never had this problem with my iPhone 4. I now have a 4S.
Try it. Hope it works for you.
