Firefox has been crashing at random times for the last two days
Firefox has been crashing randomly for the last two days. I had to download Malwarebytes yesterday because I picked up Malware Doctor (I think that's the name.) It was soon after I had removed the spyware that Firefox started crashing.

bp-d3725ad8-6b7e-4316-ad1e-d82c02130222There is a problem on Windows 8 with Firefox 19 and AMD Radeon HD 6XXX/7XXX graphic display cards.
This issue is currently being investigated in bug 830531.
*Bug 830531 - [Win8] crash in XPC_WN_Helper_NewResolve mainly with AMD Radeon HD 6290/6310/6320/7290/7310/7340
If you have one of those display cards then best is to stay with or downgrade to Firefox 18.0.2 for now.

for the last several days I have experienced the dreaded wite screen of death upon power up of my 2008 Mac Pro 2.8,
Screen will hang white - no apple logo - when I hit the power button resart - the mac power light does not go out, but "clicks" and the mac will restart.
I get the white apple logo screen and then some terminal script (about 20-25 lines) that lasts for a dew seconds - then an apple message appears telling me that my computer needs to be restarted due to an error - press a key or wat.... this will cycle continuously.
If I power down and boot in safe mode - the computer seems to start up - with a crash log.
Once I restart from safe mode - the mac seems to start fine and I am using it without issue - (of course until I power down and come back in the studio the following day...)
I am not familiar with crash logs - but here are the two most recent...

Remove the third party uaudio and motu drivers then restart your Mac.
Once I restart from safe mode - the mac seems to start fine and I am using it without issue
Safe Mode only loads required kernel extensions which is why Safe Mode works, "without issue" ... -
Updated plug ins but didn't help.

Hi, i have an iPad4 and for the last two days it has been stuck with the iCloud Backup pop up. I cant click on OK or turn it off. It has been connected to a wifi network and left locked and plugged in all day. Any one got any ideas please?
Reset it by holding the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release.

For the last two days my PSE 12 hasn't been working at all. Been working perfectly for a couple of months since I got it. Now i keep getting 'Photoshop elements 12 has stopped working' messages and then it just closes. Ran it in compatibility mode. No better. Any ideas/help please?
I have seen that the uninstall/reinstall route is a posibility, but I can't find the Key Code i got with my copy, so not entirely sure I want to uninstall.

There a few things you could try. One, is to start up iTunes in safe mode by holding Shift-Control and the other option is to try opening in a new user on your computer. Check out the article below for more information and further troubleshooting.

Am getting an opaque strip about 1inch wide across bottom of home screen for the last two days. How can I clear this please?
Have you maybe removed all the apps from the dock? the dock is the strip that remains constant and shows the apps that you place there across all sprinboard pages.

Why is Face Time not connecting for the last two days
Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page. Some users have reported that Apple is aware of the issue. You can leave feedback for Apple at the link below.

I've been running Time Machine in the background for as long as I've owned my current Mac--- a few months. It is a completely generic set-up: it's a desktop (rarely shut off or asleep) connected to an external hard drive that is much larger (1 TB) than my internal hard drive (0.5 TB), and Time Machine is configured to save backups of my whole internal drive to the external drive. The external is half-full, and the internal is a little more than half-full. I often hear my external crunching away, working on something.
I recently needed to access an old file, so I went into Time Machine mode on the folder where it had been deleted a few weeks ago. While I'm not upset that it isn't available (it's my own fault for deleting it), I didn't expect the Time Machine to have such a bad distribution of saved backups. There are 30 backup snapshots of the past two days, and nothing earlier. I was expecting something more like a few from today, a few from this week, a few from this month, and a few going all the way back in time--- a broader distribution.
I don't see any way to control this in the Time Machine Preferences (in fact, very little control at all). Is there a secret way to control it, or some tip to ensure a more useful distribution of saved snapshots?
Thanks,
-- JimThanks, but it doesn't exactly address my question. TimeMachineEditor allows me to set the intervals or times when backups occur, but it doesn't control the algorithm that decides which snapshots should be deleted. My problem was that Time Machine chose to delete all of the old snapshots and keep only the most recent ones: I'd like it to keep more of the recent ones than the old ones, but still keep some old ones.
In fact, the (unmodifyable) text on the Time Machine control panel says that it keeps:
hourly backups for the past 24 hours
daily backups for the past month
weekly backups for all previous months
That would be perfect if it were true.
Perhaps the algorithm did the wrong thing because the size of my internal hard drive varied quite a lot a few days ago: a process got out of control and used up all of my internal disk space. I killed the process and deleted its output (several times), so my internal disk eventually went back down to normal. Perhaps in the intervening hours, Time Machine made a backup, once an hour, and used up all of the external drive space. When it had to choose between keeping "weekly backups of previous months" and "hourly backups of the past 24 hours", it chose to keep hourly backups of the past 24 hours. This was the wrong choice in my case (it was the unwanted output) and is probably the wrong choice in most cases.
Is there a way to control the algorithm that decides which backups to keep and which to delete? I would have it delete the hourly, daily, and weekly backups in a way that preserves their relative distribution.
By the way, while I have made it sound like my problem was a runaway log file (something that would be easy to put in an excluded directory with Time Machine's "Options" button), it was a VirtualBox snapshot merge. The data in question are precious, but were unnecessarily copied many times while VirtualBox failed to merge them properly. I can't simply exclude a directory: I'm talking about a more general problem.
Thanks!

My Apple ID has been locked for security reasons 7 times in the last two days.
Since this past Sunday, I have had to go to the iforgot.apple.com site and unlock my apple ID at least 8 times. I didn't initiate a password change, nor did I unsuccessfully log in to anything. I found out because my daughter would bring me the iPad and on it a dialog box popped up for me to log into the iTunes store. Putting in my password didn't work. I haven't gotten any emails letting me know it's been locked. I only reveive an email when I unlock it.
I know that my Apple ID is a simple one, and one that other people often mistakenly think is theirs. I've gotten loads of emails over the years meant for other people. I've had my Apple ID (and associated email) since Steve Jobs first announved the @mac.com addresses via iTools. I don't want to change or lose it for sentimental reasons as well as practical.
I've tried to call Apple about this and so far haven't gotten anywhere. I set up two factor authentication about two weeks ago. At that point, the emails for password resets stopped and all seemed great until two days ago.
I've searched the support forums and so far have encountered others having the same issue, but no resolutions. So, I am mostly posting just to make sure Apple knows it's still happening.
Thanks forThank you. I know you're all users and not official Apple tech support, but I also know that the results of these discussions make their way up to search engines, and that Apple has to be aware that the issues discussed here happen.
As for the link to contact the iTunes support, I have already used that. I have a "ticket number" in their system, and have signed up for Apple to call me tonight after work. I was on hold with them yesterday for about 40 minutes, but had to hang up when my children's doctor called (they are both sick).
I was just venting, in the hopes that my venting would find others in the same troubled spot and we could share our frustratons together.
Thanks for trying to help and for listening. -

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the jack yourself -
First I notice your icon was gone so I figured I'd moved it by mistake. I put it back, but most of my bookmarks were gone. I then noticed I had two icons, one on right side one on left of my Mac. Tried to download new version. Didn't work, went to preview? Weird. Tried the version that's for Yahoo. That seemed to work, my bookmarks were back, but today it says that's an old version and I must update if I want to open something from Firefox from my email. So I did and once again I had two icons on page. It has done this a couple times. So I'm going in circles. I've done nothing new to my less than 3-year-old iMac and have never had this problem or anything remotely like it before.
Did you manage to get it working mine disappeared after I while I managed to download it but now my laptop/iTunes won't recognise my iPhone!
