Firefox 7.0.1 Sync problems unexcpected errors and inability to close account

I get repeated unexpected errors from sync on the bottom of the page which suggests that sync will try again later. Since there was no syncing taking place, I removed the devices and tried to close my account to create another as suggested in the forums. I was unable to close. Keep getting the "Oh dear....." message. Is there a fix for this. Have been trying for bout 2 weeks to delete the account.

Yes, that was the second thing I tried Found it in one of the forums. Also tried to wade through some of the sync logs from the instructions in a forum, but was hopelessly lost, except I could understand the "failure" word. Grin. Have resorted to Xmarks until I can get this figured out. It works, but doesn't do all the sync that Sync did when it was working. Thanks for the reply.

    Firefox says it has an error and needs to close. I have sent multiple reports and no change. It says it is an firefox.exe problem. Please help

    I also used version 7 and faced the same problem, it shows,

  • ITunes 9.1.1 - "Encountered an unexpected error and has to close"

    Hi I downloaded the latest iTunes upgrade and ever since I've been having problems.
    iTunes will be fine until I sync my brand new iPod Nano and then I get a Windows message saying "iTunes has encountered an unexpected error and has to close". Then everytime after that, whether the iPod is plugged in or not, I get the same message.
    Has anyone else had this problem and been able to resolve it?

    Sorry about the continued questions (this one is a bit odd).
    Then after that, as soon as I click the iTunes icon, I get that message, regardless of whether the iPod's plugged in or not.
    In some ways, the oddest thing is that you can get iTunes launching again after the issue starts happening.
    Does the error when trying to launch go away after you restart the PC? Or do you have to do something different?
    If it's clearing up after a restart, could you check something for me?
    Provoke the nano-plugging-in error. Don't try to open iTunes again just at the moment.
    Now bring up your Task Manager. Go into the processes tab. Click the "Image name" header to sort the processes alphabetically. Even though you've had that error message, is there still an iTunes.exe process listed in that tab?
    If so, right-click on the process and select "end process". Does Windows let you end the process? If it does, can you launch iTunes again without the error?
    (Trying to work out here if you're getting an an unusual variation of problems associated with security software interference with syncing, or possibly an idiosyncratic sort of iTunes preference files issue. Both can sometimes be associated with "unknown module" crashes, although I tend to expect something more like an iTunes.dll to be cited as the faulting module if that's afoot.)

  • "itunes has experienced an error and needs to close"

    while trying to import my c.d. collection to itunes, i quite often get the message "itunes has experienced an error and needs to close. do you want to send the error to microsoft?" it usually takes me about 20 minutes to import 1 c.d. to itunes becuase i have to keep re-opening itunes after it closes. i never lose anything i have already imported. sometimes i will get through 5 songs before i get the error message, sometimes i cant get through a single song. whats the deal here??

    What if you try importings CDs to your computer (not to iTunes) Is this normally working? If yes the problem is in ITunes and if no the problem is maybe your CD player. If the problem is in iTunes you should try to download the latest version from the Apple pages and then update/reinstall.

  • "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close" -Gapless Playback

    I've had this problem for a while now and I'm just plain sick of it!
    Every time I start up iTunes it does the "Determining Gapless Playback" thing, but when it gets to certain songs it freezes up and I get an error message that says:
    "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close"
    This happenes to a lot of songs (a few dozen)and the only way I can actually access my library is by hitting the 'x'next to "Determining Gapless Playback" before it gets to the songs. However, now I can't even do that because it gets to the song immediately.
    I need to know if I can disable the gapless playback or somehow debug this (I have reinstalled iTunes, Quicktime works, I have reloaded my library, done a system restore,and changed users/startup programs... nothing works)
    PLEASE help!
    I run XP if that helps.

    Kar,
    Check out the steps Roy B posted in this thread. They are long and a bit convoluted, but they seem to have done the trick for many others having this problem.

  • "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close" - can't open iTunes

    Hi guys,
    I'm a huge Apple fan so I obviously decided to upgrade to Apple 7.0.1 the day it came out... installed it. Opened it up, but within just a few seconds i got a Windows message saying
    "iTunes has encountered an error and needs to close"
    I reinstalled it and still have the same problem.
    First few days I could atleast keep iTunes open for a few minutes before the message, but now its down to just a few seconds.
    I run Windows XP if that helps any.
    Please help me fix this problem or tell me how I can put iTunes 6 back on my computer --- I need my music!
    Thanks

    After downloading and installing 7.0.1 my iTunes would not open either. Even worse is you can't go back to v6 if you had v7 running--the database is updated.
    Luckily I was able to get my iTunes to open again by doing the following:
    Click Start/Run
    Type in "%userprofile%\application data\apple computer"
    Right click on the iTunes folder and rename it to iTunes.bak.
    Close the window.
    Click Start/Run again.
    Type in "%userprofile%\local settings\application data\apple computer"
    Right click on the iTunes folder and rename it to iTunes.bak.
    Close the window.
    Try opening your iTunes again. It may re-ask some general setup questions, but mine opened without the error, and it still had all my music. However, I did have to re-authorize my computer.
    I used to never be leary about updating iTunes... guess Apple's software ain't no peach, either.
    Hope this helps someone.

  • CTIOS encountered an error and needs to close

    We frequently get the "CTIOS encountered an error and needs to close" while trying to launch CTIOS desktop( CTI out of box). This usually gets fixed when we reinstall the application. But this issue is so frequent that i am wondering what the root cause may be and fix for that,  instead of reinstalling the app every time this issue occurs.Any help on this is appreciated.

    Thanks for your quick response Geoff , Unfortunately the desktop does not write anything in the client log files when it shows this error. I assumed that this has something to do with the corruption of  DLL files. I am not sure how to trace back to the roots.I have seen many posts in this forum who faced  the same problem, so thought some one would have found some alternative solution than reinstalling the application.
    Thanks for your help.

  • ITUNES SHOWS ERROR AND NEED TO CLOSE

    Hi,
    itunes page shows error and need to close everytime I plug in the iphone to my desktop. why?

    +"iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close."+
    let's first check to see if this is associated with a problem with your QuickTime. (iTunes needs a properly functioning QuickTime in order to work correctly.)
    try launching your QuickTime. does it:
    (a) launch perfectly fine?
    (b) fail to launch with an error message? (if so, what does it say?)
    (c) exhibit other peculiar behavior? (if so, could you describe it for us?)

  • Generic Host process for WIN32 encountered an error and needed to close

    Hi,
      I hv installed SAP ECC6.0 SR3 on WIndows 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition. Many times i get an popup message on Windows Server "Generic Host process for WIN32 encountered an error and needed to close"
    I hv checked the Event Viewer, in Event Viewer it shows the application error.
    Consequences of this error is that my Transport path //hostname/sapmnt/trans becomes inaccesible, and I have to take the restart of Windows server to solve the problem. ONce Windows server is restarted for some time transports work, Again when receiving the same error popup on Windows, Transport path goes down.
    Can anyone give input on this???

    Hello,
    You have posted a question that is related to system transports. Unfortunately this category is not related to these kind of questions. SAP TM deals with logistics in the real world - moving pallets, containers, loading trucks, etc.
    To learn more about SAP TM please visit http://service.sap.com/scm-tm
    Therefore I will now move this thread to the category Software Logistics. Thank you for your understanding.

  • Problems with libraries and plugins - non admin account

    I''ve got a couple of problems with a fresh install of photoshop on my windows Windows 7 64 bits system.
    1. Libraries panel does not work. It displays the following error and interaction is not possible:
    2. 3rd party plugins would load their content.
    3. In the Creative Cloud Application the apps tab would load and displays the "download error" message:
    The funny thing is that all the above errors don't occur on the loacl admin account. So I think this might be a permission problem. I think the most easy sollution would be to work under the admin account, but sadly that's no option (company policy). I am able to extent the rights of the useraccount I work on, but I don't know in wich folders the software needs write permissions. The both Adobe folders in program files and program files (x86) I already changed to full acces for all users. Can someone please help me?

    Problems with libraries and plugins - non admin account https://forums.adobe.com/people/pippyn%20stortelder
    This is a permissions Error.  The other accounts on the computer do have permissions to use / change the administrator settings of these particular items.
    There are two ways you can fix this. 1.) contact the admin of the system and let him know your accounts need read access to these items
    My Preferred method is:
    If you are on a Windows Account, then you can choose those items to run in Administrator mode for all people.  ( win7,64bit )
    Right click the infinity system for creative cloud (creative cloud icon - you would normally click to start the program. (not the one in your service tray, but the one in your menu area with the square red on it.
    choose/click on properties
    choose/click compatibility (tab at the top of the window)
    Last boxed option on this screen is: Run Program As Administrator,  Click that check box.
    Click on  Change Settings for All Users
    in the window that comes up again choose, put an X in the box-  the last option, Run Program As Administrator - Click Apply
    Click OK
    Click OK and the opened preferences window should now be closed.
    You should be able to simply invoke the Cloud app now. But you might want to reboot to safe.
    Depending on the installation methods used for your add-ons, you may have to perform this same process for all add-ins.  I believe that would depend on which account, first installed the add-on and what level of permissions they have.
    Good Luck

  • How do I stop my iTunes from getting an "error and has to close" message?

    When I open iTunes, it wants to update my Music Match and I get an error message that "iTunes has experienced an error and has to close".  How do I prevent this?

    No, an external drive will not always be mounted. If the drive goes to sleep, it can unmount, or it may unmount for other reasons. As Chris said, confim that the drive is mounted and active before launching iTunes.
    Regards.

  • Excel encountered an error and need to close

    Hello
    We suddenly have Excel crashing with one single report among others saying 'Excel encountered an error and needs to close'.
    The report run last week and we didn't change it meanwhile, nor did we change the Excel version.
    Version: SAP BPC 5.1 on SQL 2005 running with Excel 2003
    What we already tried:
    - full process of all dimensions
    - reinstall of office client
    - open/save the report with another excel version (2002) outside BPC
    Does anybody know this behaviour and does anybody have an idea to workaround it?
    For me honestly a reinstall of Excel or to rebuild the whole report would put in question the quality of BPC in general.
    Thanks and kind regards.
    Miramar

    You could probably try re-house the report into a new excel workbook.
    Literally copy across the sheet contents and see if that fixes it.
    This technique works sometimes where excel reports/templates can get corrupted...

  • Download from appstore get errors, and stops. but my account already charged $19.99 , how to get my money back?

    i tried to buy keynote from the appstore, and the download get errors, and stops. but my account already charged $19.99 , how to get my money back?

    Apple's policy states that, "all sales are final" > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    Keynote's minimum requirements are v10.7.4 Lion in case you are running a prior Mac OS X. That information is available under Information right side of the Keynote window at the App Store.
    and the download get errors, and stops
    Try turning off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security (or Security & Privacy) > Firewall
    Disable anti virus software.
    Then open the App Store. From the App Store menu bar top of your screen click Store > Check for Unfinished Downloads

  • Sync Problem with Outlook and Blackberry Calendars

    I am hoping someone has an "easy" solution to this problem.
    I am using Desktop Sync (BIS) and synching it to my work Outlook 2007 mailbox.
    Normally my calendar entries should sync to the Blackberry calendar associated with my work email address. Somehow, over the course of the past several days, some of my syncing was occuring with the the VZW Blackberry calendar. I didn't catch the problem in time and now I have work calendar entries correctly listed on my Blackberry, but in two different calendars.
    I have since lost some of those entries originally created in Outlook. They are on the Blackberry, but on the wrong Calendar. When I sync with Desktop, the work entries on the VZW Calendar are not getting over to Outlook.
    So the question is - is there a way to "move" the entries in one BB calendar, over to the other calendar? Thanks.

    I would love to know the answer to this problem as well.  I had the same problem even when I downgraded back to 5.0.  It always worked fine before.  Very Frustrating.  To get around it clearing out all the settings on my handheld.  I just have to click no every time it asks if I want to clear all databases on the phone before sync.  It still syncs but doesn't change my settings.  Annoying but works until they get this aggravation fixed.
