Firefox has been working fine but now when it "opens" it briefly flashes off my normal screen and I can't maximize or minimize it. I've tried to uninstall, etc

I've tried everything and nothing has worked. I love FireFox and hate Internet Explorer--please help!!!

Couple thoughts:
(1) Does Firefox still seem to have an active window "somewhere" based on having a tile on the Windows 7 Task Bar?
If so, how did you try to maximize it?
If you think Firefox is running but is off-screen, check out this post for getting a normally positioned window: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/941896#answer-381295
(2) Does your home page use any Flash media?
If so, try disabling the Flash Player plugin's protected mode. See this support article from Adobe under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
If you want to test a neutral page first, make sure all Firefox windows are closed, then start up Firefox from the Start menu search box using:
firefox.exe "about:blank"
If that works normally, then it's something about your home page.

I just opened my mail on icloud and all messages disappeared from the last year! I have one email left in my inbox which is the most recent. I moved to icloud 2 weeks ago and it has been working fine until now. How can I retrieve old messages? Thank you.

I guess you could try but I don't believe Apple can help with activation lock issues. They may, however, be able to determine if the Apple ID belongs to one of you and reset the password for you if you can prove your identity.
You might want to try calling Apple by going to https://expresslane.apple.com; click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'. Perhaps they can help determine if it's your ID and reset the password for you (and they probably have more expertise in doing this than the Apple store).

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
You can look at these prefs on the about:config page.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.history_expire_days (180) (also affects saved form data)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.history_expire_days_min (90)
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

I received my new Iphone 6 last week, backed my iphone 5 and then restored my new handset. It has been working fine until today when I deletec all my contacts from my old handset. Contacts have gone from my new handset too, how do I get them back?

I received my new iphone 6 last week, backed my iphone 5 and then restored my new handset. It has been working fine until today when I deleted all my contacts from my old handset. Contacts have gone from my new handset too, how do I get them back? I don't think the back up was done using icloud as I keep getting the message "not enough memory"

The point is not whether you used iTunes or iCloud to restore your new iPhone. It's whether you have Contacts turned on in Settings > ICloud. If you do on both your old iPhone and new iPhone then those devices are connected through iCloud. Deletions on one device are also made on the other.
You may be able to restore your Contacts be using your old device backup to restore your new iPhone again. Make sure that you turn Off ICloud functionality on your old iPhone before you delete anything else from it.

HT1218 My AirPort Utility is showing that it's not connected. It has been working fine. What do I do? I've checked my internet connections and they are working.

My AirPort Utility is showing that it's not connected to the internet. It has been working fine until now. I am connected and can't figure out why it's saying this. Please help!

Hello utfan5
Try resetting up the AirPort base station to see if it resolves the connectivity issue. Also make sure you are using the recommended settings to connect to the internet.

I have a iPhone 4s, which has been working fine until now. Charge phone overnight and within 2 hours dead. Put it on charger and shows charging but that's it. Battery not showing any charge.

I have a IPhone 4s, which has been working great until now. Don't know if has any thing to do with the latest updates. Charged it over night and then two hours later it was dead. Didn't even used it. Placed on charger and the charging icon shows but battery not.

Hello, M_Bilal
Welcome to the HP Forums.
That you for provided such a detailed post with what you've already completed, for the issue with your battery. I will try to guide you further.
I would like to provide you further documents for troubleshooting, but you've essentially completed what I have for this issue. The only step left, would be to test the battery.
You can do this with another battery, or in another notebook. I know you mention another machine, but if you know someone who does or someone who has a compatible battery. This would test that. You could even see if a local computer shop could test it.
The reason for this, is if the battery is the problem, it's much easier and more affordable replacement. Also, you mention it being new, might have warranty.
The other possible cause to the issue you've touched on, that would be the system board. Testing the above, would just confirm if this is the problem or not. From there you could decide on what you'd like to do.
I know, there really aren't many suggestions here, but I hope this can provide you with the next step.
Let me know how things go, with the route you choose to troubleshoot.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

The sound has been working fine until now. I turn the volume up but no sound. What could be causing this and how do I fix it? Thanks so much.

The sound has been working fine until yesterday. I turn the volume up but no sound. Not while playing games or with key taps. What is causing this and how can I fix it? Thanks so much.

I did a search for "no sound" and found the solution. Thanks for the info.!

In Photoshop CC timeline, when I add an audio track photoshop CC either quits working or it skips to the end of the video clip. If I just put in audio it works fine. If I just put in clips or pics it works fine, but now when audio is added

When I try to use the timeline portion of photoshop, I can't get the audio to work with my clips. I can get audio to work fine when using just audio, but the minute I try to add audio to a set of clips either photoshop quits working or it skips to the last clip in my show. I don't understand why this happens. I am using the same track each time. Very frustrating.

Topic or subject titles should be clear, pertinent and concise so that individual users can tell at a glance if they can help or not.
That field is not for attempting to fit your entire question in there.
Please keep this in mind next time you post. Thank you.

Am having problems with my Zeppelin music player and iPod classic. The Zeppelin, bought Dec '12, and the iPod, bought same time, used to work fine but now when I attach iPod to Zeppelin I get a message that says the iPod doesn't support the accesory!

I bought a Zeppelin music player and iPod classic in December 2012, and all went well until I last synched the iPod with iTunes, and now I get a message saying that the iPod doesn't recognise the attached accessory when I try to connect it to the Zeppelin. I did recently update to the latest iTunes version-could this be the problem, and if so how do I cure it? All help appreciated.

It's still charging when you plug it in. That just means it won't play music out the speaker. If that's what you were looking to do, they have speakers for iPods.

Can not connect the ipad 2 to wireless router. been working fine but some reason not working now being trying to solve this since 4pm today

Can anyone help can not get my ipad to connect to wireless today. has been working fine but all of a sudden will not connect to Router. I have a kindle and a mobile and both of these will connect to the router wireless but the ipad will not.
Been to my parents with the i pad and this will connect to their wireless router.
Can not think of anything else to try

Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

New AEBS installed, Vonage initially worked fine, but now is not.

I recently upgraded my home network, ditching the Linksys WRT54G router I had in favor of a new Airport Extreme Base Station. everything has been working fine, but all of a sudden I noticed that my Vonage adapter wasn't connected and was spitting out error 001.
The Vonage adapter is plugged into a 10/100 hub that's uplinked to one of the LAN ports on the AEBS (I know it's a waste, but nothing on that segment is gigabit capable…)
I launched into full troubleshooting mode, and determined that the cabling, hub and AEBS are all functioning perfectly. I also don't think that it could be a port forwarding issue, since several days passed between the time I swapped in the AEBS and the time when the Vonage adapter stopped working. In that time, several incoming and outgoing calls took place over the Vonage line and all was fine.
On a whim, I connected the Vonage adapter to a laptop and set it up with a static IP and attempted to configure port forwarding to it in the AEBS, but there was no change. Incidentally, with the static IP on the Vonage adapter, I was able to ping it from other computers on the network, but it still isn't able to download it's config from the outside world.
Vonage tech support has been willing to help, but unable to tell me anything useful thus far.
My question is, is anyone here using such a setup, and if so have you seen any issues like this? I'm really thinking that the adapter has given up the ghost, but I don't know.

To help you with your troubleshooting you should visit https://forums.vonage.com/
I had Vonage. Initially it worked then I had tremendous voice dropouts. After weeks of troubleshooting with Vonage (they rolled back firmware in their adapter) it worked... for about 6 months. Then the same problem reappeared. Troubleshooting with Vonage could not solve the issue this time. Since I had to have phone service, I cancelled Vonage and went to ITP. Unfortunately Vonage stuck me with cancellation fees even though their service would not work for me.

I am using Numbers app for the ipad and it has been working absolutely fine but now, when I want to email a spreadsheet as a PDF via the 'share and print' option, the file now doesn't appear as an attachment to the recipient. Any ideas please?

Hi mafiose15,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
How to restore iPod
Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
Click Restore.
If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
You can find the instructions in this article:
