Firefox does not appear on screen when started from the start menu, but task manager says the process is running
Firefox does not appear on screen when started from the start menu or the shortcuts, but task manager says the process is running.
No - I get the message basically saying "Can't run program while Firefox is running. Please close down Firefox & try again".
I rebooted my computer and it all works now - but that's weird it was happening before. Kinda weirded out that it happened at all.
To avoid that happening again, I still wanna know what to do to avoid it or fix it for next time. Thanks

Do Not Disconnect does NOT appear on screen when plugged in w/ USB
Please help! I have updated over 300 songs on my 30G ipod. After about a week of not putting any songs on, I went to connect the ipod, and it was frozen on the Do Not Disconnect logo. I reset it immediately and it was okay. Now, when I connect it to the computer, Itunes does not recognize my ipod. Cannot update anything to myipod. And the Do Not Disconnect logo does not appear when connected...........Does anyone know what I have to do? I tried already resetting it and still nothing happens. I don't want to reinstall itunes, b/c I don't want anything lost......Thank you!!

Firefox does not save my tabs and windows from last time, although i have already set it so (on a Macbook) (newest version)
If you use [[Clear Recent History]] in Firefox 3.5 and later to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

Ever since my last update I have been unable to add songs from my i tunes library onto my i phone. The "add to" button does not appear for me when I connect my i phone. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
Thanks again, Sandra2474. -
I have tried the suggestions posted in mozilla support for removing Yahoo from the new tab and the default search, but I have not been successful. So, I thought I would uninstall Firefox from my computer and make a clean install. However Mozilla Firefox does not appear as one of my Currently installed programs in Control Panel\ Add or Remove Programs, and C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe does not open or run. I fear I may have been the victim of some ?Yahoo malware. Any suggestions gratefully received.
I have Firefox 22.0 and my computer runs XP sp3.Do you have the Default Tab extension?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

Conversation does not appear on screen
One particular instant messaging conversation does not appear on screen. I am notified when a new message is sent to me, and when I hover over the Skype icon on the Windows toolbar I can see the icon for the conversation window, but the conversation itself does not appear. All other conversations appear just fine. It happens to be a running conversation with my boss, so I really would like to fix it. Currently when I get a message in this conversation I have to use Skype on my phone to participate in the conversation, but it is much faster to type on my computer keyboard than on my phone. Thanks for your help.
Computer clock time is correct. No, it hasn't been wrong, or at least I have never had to reset the time, it's always been correct. This is the only conversation this is happening with. It's still happening. I have to go to my phone to message in this particular conversation. My boss was on leave for awhile and so this conversation was inactive for a couple of months. It was working fine before she left. One more piece of info ... I used to have two monitors, now I'm using only one. But switching to one monitor didn't affect any of the other conversations I participate in.

My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset using the two button method, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer - and nothing else happens either. This happened after I agreed to a software update which failed. How can I get it going again?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I create pdf but it does not appear on screen
I create the pdf correctly, but it does not appear on the screen. Time ago always appeared and the I decided if I wantet do print, save or send by email, but now the only thing I can do is to save.
How do I solve this problem?On the main page of the export screen there is a button that says 'View PDF sfter exporting' or something like that. Tick that and you'll be aways, remember it's a 'sticky' setting so should stay like that until you change it yourself.

GDM does not appear back after logging out from Gnome.
Hello,
I am tryingout Archlinux for the first time. I am able to goto run level 5 and after booting I get the GDM login screen. I can log in to Gnome. But when I log out from Gnome, GDM does not appear, but I get a black screen. Then, the only way to come out is to press the reset button.
What may be the problem?
Thanks for your help.
Anandit may depend on how ur running gdm, (possibly with -*no-daemon option) .. in which case it'd prolly werk if u removed it...
although i'd recommend using rc.conf instead as it's a lot cleaner...
to use /etc/rc.conf
add gdm to the DAEMONS;
mine = "DAEMONS=(gdm @syslog-ng @network @alsa @httpd)"
that starts gdm(in daemon mode), then starts syslog-ng,net*,alsa and apache in the background .. save me about 6 seconds when i background em.
then you need to change the default runlevel in /etc/inittab to 3 (not 5)
