Firefox 6.0.2 crashes and Windows XP restarts the whole system
When I visit the 'YouTube' website, after a while Firefox crashes (Then I see for a very short moment a blue screen with text, but it dissapeared very quickly, so I couldn't read the text) and my complete windows XP system restarts. Then when I open Firefox again, instead of the usual starterpage, it opens on the YouTube-site where the crash happened. There is no so called 'crash-monitor' or other info that I know of. After apprx. 15 minutes the whole thing happened again. Please help!! Thanks, Wolter.
Yes, this is ridiculous. I'd switch to Chrome for good if Chrome wasn't so lame.
Please Firefox, don't turn into IE.

Hi, I would be very grateful if someone could tell me how to disconnect internet connection in Time Capsule and reconnect without restarting the whole device?
The thing is that as I have a dynamic IP address, everytime I restart the internet connection my IP address changes. I sometimes need it to change, so I need to restart the connection. I don't know another way to restart the connection than restarting the whole Time Capsule.
Thanks!!
PD: the computer I use is Windows based, using the Airport Utility for Windows, but I also have a MacBook Pro I could use and an iPhone too.The utility in windows is very like Mac so the screenshots are from Mac as I don't have windows available now.
How this works depends on the setup of the TC.. which you did not tell us.. you cannot change anything if you do not have the TC as the main router in the network.
So on the internet tab you need to share a public IP address.
On the next tab where you set IP address.
Click the renew IP address.
It might work.. and it might not.. the problem is you are not disconnecting the network.. sometimes the hard disconnection is required before the address will renew..
What about unplugging the WAN port.. then click renew the IP which will fail.. then plug the wan back in again.
In the end it is easier and faster to power cycle the TC. -

Hey mastel2,
Shut off your computer. Then power it on holding Command + R. Select English as your language then click "erase and reinstall".

There is no 'Erase and Install' command on a Mac with a Recovery Partition (Command+R), please check your research again. -

YouTube videos crashed and ! appeared in the in the window were the video should be.
Malwarebytes Pro found something on the 27th with its real time scans so I quarantined it and then after it removed it my PC was buggy and slow here is the exact file path C\windows\Microsoft.NET\framework\v20.50727\daisy...
and just today Firefox had a problem with YouTube the video apparently crashed and instead of getting the normal crash message it showed a ! instead WTH? Here I'll attach an image sorry I forgot to take a screenshot but I tried to duplicate it using Gimp.You can check for problems caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and possibly downgrade to Flash 11.2 or 10.3.

Question
How do you get firefox 4 to save tabs and windows and restore them? Don't say set preferences to open them on startup or use restore previous session under history; those do not work. Or is it no longer possible to save windows and tabs?'''IT'S A EASY AS IT SHOULD BE.'''
This is essentially paulbruster's answer, but I've added the steps some might assume, but which aren't so obvious to those of us who are new at this, like me.
This solution might ''appear'' to be long and complicated, but after you follow the directions once, you'll find it's quick, clean, and simple. Almost like they designed it this way.
# If you haven't already, open a bunch of tabs on a few different subjects.
# Click the List All Tabs button on the right side of the tab strip.
# Select Tab Groups.
# Create a few groups as described [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/what-are-tab-groups#w_how-do-i-create-a-tab-group here] , i.e. just drag them out of the main thumbnail group into the new groups they create.
# Now click on any thumbnail in any new group, but not the original big default group you may have left some tabs in.
#A regular Firefox window will open, but'' only the tabs in that group will be visible.'' You also now have the Tab Groups button in the tab strip.
# Right click on any tab, and there it is: Bookmark All Tabs. Click on it in the list of options. Or you can hit Ctrl+Shift+D instead and go straight to the dialogue box from the tab without any clicks. But don't go looking for this familiar option anywhere else, 'cause it's not there.
# Now pick an existing folder or create a new one just like you would have before and '''shlpam!''' there they are. New folders are supposed to end up in the Unsorted category all the way at the very bottom, but for some reason mine show up at the bottom of my last sorted category.
# DO NOT CLICK THE UPPER-RIGHTMOST X to close this group of tabs. This will close ALL of your tabs in all groups, currently visible or not. At least it asks if you're sure first. Instead, click your new Tab Groups button to return to the Boxes 'O Thumbnails window, and click the X in the group box you just bookmarked.
# Click on another thumbnail to repeat the process with another group, or click on a thumbnail in the big default box to return to the original FF window. You can also click the Tab Groups button at the upper right, or Ctrl+Shift+E, which will also get you ''into'' the Boxes 'O Nails window ''from'' FF.
# So now when you reopen FF after shutdown, simply select your folder from your Bookmarks and Open All in Tabs. '''Just like paulbruster said. ''' -

Cannot open e-mail in Hotmail through Firefox. I have Vista installed on the pc and Windows 7 on the laptop, but neither can access any features in Hotmail. I have tried clearing the cache and restarting Firefox, but I still can't use Hotmail.
No such problem when I go through Internet Explorer.hello, there are reports that the foxit pdf plugin is causing this issue. you might want to disable this plugin in firefox > addons > plugin until foxit offers a fix/update for its plugin.

I was running Lightroom 3.6 with the OS Windows XP (Sp3). The whole system crashed, I am unable to recover the serial number. I then upgraded my OS to Windows 7 (x64) and down loaded Lightroom 4.4, I wanted to buy a licence so I then upgraded to Lightroom 5, now when I try to register I am asked for the original licence/serial number. Where do I go from here??????
If you upgraded from 3.6 to 5 (you didn't indicate buying 4.4) then you will need the serial number from 3.6 in order to be able to use 5. If you did not keep a record of it there is a chance it might be available thru your Adobe account online, but if not, there is likely not much you can do except to return the upgrade and purchase a full version. Try contacting support using chat and explain your situation to see if they can help.
Serial number and activation chat support (non-CC)
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/service1.html ( http://adobe.ly/1aYjbSC )
If you did purchase 4.4 then that should be sufficient to use to activate 5.
I can never be sure what goes on with Lightroom, and the Adobe site (even when it works properly) makes finding information about products difficult these days so I am at a loss to confirm anything I say. -
Every time I place a bid on Ebay my firefox crashes and must be restarted.
Every time I place a bid on Ebay my firefox crashes and must be restarted. This is the only time this happens. It seems to be ok until I actually confirm the bid and within a second or two firefox crashes.
This is most likely caused by '''The Browser Highlighter''' add-on. Uninstall or disable this add-on from Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions. You could also try finding an update for this extension.
See [[Uninstalling Extensions]] and https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/682558
If that does not solve the problem:
Go to the address '''about:crashes''' and tell us your latest crash IDs. We can then look at the data specific to your crash and have a better idea of what is causing the problem. -

When I start firefox, I get a Dialogue bx saying that Firefox had stopped working and Windows is checking the cause, another dialouge box says that A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify if a solution is found,the problem continues, I have Google Chrome working on my Laptop.
It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.

The hard disc of my laptop has crashed and i lost all the data. Now I want to take back up of my I phone and transfer contacts , messages and music etc back into my laptop , how can I do that. Also let me know how I can transfer the contacts into Windows contacts from I phone. Pl help
Your content will only be where you put it. It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone: File>Device>Transfer purchases.
You can import your pics taken with the iphone as you would with any digital camera.
You can e-mail the other pics to yourself, they will never be of the original quality.
You can out a unique contact and calendar entry on the computer. You should get the option to merge the data when you sync.
