Firefox is freezing (going to a black screen) whenever I rotate a web page from portrait to landscape view on a stock Motorola Atrix on a stable wifi connection. How do I fix this?

I'm running a stock Atrix with Android 2.3 (gingerbread). Yesterday afternoon I noticed that Firefox was taking a good 30 seconds to open whenever I tapped the Firefox icon on my phone. It's also freezing/going to a black screen anytime I rotated from portrait to landscape by rotating my phone. When this happens, the phone itself doesn't freeze (other programs still work if I hit the home key), but it takes a couple manual on-off cycles of the screen to wake Firefox up. Is there something I can do to fix this annoying problem without installing and reinstalling Firefox?

I have also found that unchecking the "Use hardware acceleration when available" option solves this issue. This option is in the Advanced section, under the General tab.

HT3986 My Windows 7 doesn't detect my wifi connection, how do I fix this?

I just recently installed Windows 7 Home Premium into my Macbook white late 2009 edition and my wifi connection cannot be detected by windows but when I plug in the ethernet cable from our broadband router, the internet works. What do I do? Please help me.

Did you see a thread pretty much same duplicate as your question? also using Airport.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3808608?tstart=0
I don't have wireless but in Vista there was a wireless configuration wizard.
And yes set up wired first. Install Apple driver, and based on dozens of identical threads, probably update the driver - via Device Manager, find what device and manually install what you need.

My FaceTime isn't working properly. Every call I make a black dot appears on the camera in the middle (fixed onto the screen, and is not dirt), and the calls always fail. It would ring 6 times and then say call failed. How can I fix this?

If FaceTime ever worked properly for you, restarting your modem (and separate router/wireless if you have such) may help. If the problem continues, try connecting at a different location to see if the problem is within your wi-fi.
The black dot problem may mean you need to reset your iPod. If that does not help, it may need service by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
If you need help with any of these suggestions, detailed help on each topic is available via Apple's Support pages:

My iPod nano will go into the sleep mode while a song is playing a second after the screen goes blank; the song will stop and I will then have to press the sleep/awake button to pick up where the song left off. How do I fix this?

Your problem is that your iPod is not sensing that your headset is inserted. There is a pin inside the headphone port on the Nano that senses if it is inserted fully. If it does not sense anything, it will pause playback to save battery power when the screen dims. Here are the solutions:
Insert it fully. This will fix it for most of you. Press that thing in there all the way. You should feel and hear a full click when it is fully seated. If you can see ANY silver of the headset jack, it is not fully inserted.
Debris inside the headset port. If you are totally unable to push the headset jack all the way, the most likely problem is that you have crud inside your headphone jack. Try blowing it out or slapping it against your palm with the headset port facing your palm to try and get the stuff out. If you look into he jack with a light, you should be able to see to the bottom. The entire inside of the headset port is white, so if it looks dark at the bottom, that is the crud that is keeping your nano from working.
Headset jack or plug issue. If you cannot solve the problem with 1 or 2, then there is likely something physically wrong with either the headset jack on your headphones or the headset port on the nano.
If none of the above works, you need to take it to the Apple store or wherever you purchased it. I think they are still under warranty.

I own a 13-inch MacBook Pro and for the past day, my wifi on my laptop says I only have two bars of connection and is running very slow,but all of my other devices such as my iPhone and iPad are connecting perfectly to the wifi. How can I fix this? I have tried to shut my laptop off and let it rest and I have also re-started my wifi router three different times. Someone please help me with this problem so I can begin to use my laptop again as I take it to school and use it for class.
Thanks so much!

FCP, and all software on OSX, has a few different "preference" files (the extension is .plist), which store all your user settings. Each time you resize a window, change a setting, anything, this file is re-written. Kinda easy to see how they would become corrupt every now and then.
-Close FCP
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences and delete com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data and delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
-Empty your trash
Relaunch FCP and see if that worked.
Download FCP Rescue to make this process easier in the future. When you have FCP running really smooth, open FCP Rescue and create a backup of your preference files. If it starts acting wanky, just run FCP Rescue and Restore your backup preferences. Works really slick, and it's free.
EDIT: Or use the really simple explaination that X posted as I was typing.

My iMac can discover WiFi but won't connect how do i fix this?

My iMac will discover WiFi connections, i type in the right password but it wont connect how do i fix this?

A lot of older iMacs only support the original Airport, and not Airport Extreme. PowerPC (PPC) iMacs that have extreme are limited to 802.11g, and can't do 802.11n. Those with the original airport only support 802.11b, and the insecure WPA/TKIP or WEP encryption, and are better served via ethernet to a WiFi ethernet bridge.
The airport card typically is not built-in. Verify with http://www.everymac.com/ what the status of your iMac was, and/or see this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2256
Intel iMacs that are Core2Duo can be upgraded to 802.11n with the 802.11n enabler. You'll have to contact the Apple Store online nearest you to determine if you can still download it, as it is not on their website.
To determine if you already have it, see this tip:

Regarding #1, your post says you have a beta version of Firefox 4. That may well be incorrect, but that is why the site says you do not have the latest version.
Losing graphics on the bookmarks toolbar and not having a working back button are not normal, but I'm not sure whether you want to troubleshoot Firefox 4, roll back to Firefox 3.6, or just move on.
How can we help?

Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears? If that doesn't work, try resetting the network settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.
If that fails, you may possibly have damaged the SIM. Verizon will need to give you a new one.
Best of luck.

Hi. I'm not technically skilled, but based on the reply from the other guy re. AdBlock Plus being the common denominator to everyone's problems, I checked my Filter settings (ABP version 2.0.3) and deselected 'Fanboy's List (English)'. With this deselected and ABP still 'enabled' the messages work as usual.
I only had this problem using Virgin Mail, so must be the way they now present their mail that conflicts with 'Fanboy's List (English)' filter. I guess I'll need toi choose another filter.

- Temporarily disable anti virus software if installed.
- Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent apps from downloading including Mountain Lion.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select Mountain Lion. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

What IP does your iPad show as having?
Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo.
Some folks have discovered that changing their DNS service fixes FaceTime connection issues.
The ideal way is to configure your modem/router with DNS service, but often settings in System Preferences/Network on your Mac will override the router settings. Try either of these;
OpenDNS
208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
Google Public DNS
8.8.8.8. 8.8.4.4

Had the same problem and trying to remember how I fixed it. Let's see...
Try this:
1) Settings > Messages > Receive At > Use your Apple ID for iMessage > make sure you are logged out from Apple / iTunes.
2) under "You can be reached for messages at:" > make sure only your phone number shows and no email address.
Hope that works, if not I just can't remember what else I did. However I got it working so that my tel number now shows to iMessage recipients instead of my email address.

Hello Nicolettep,
It sounds like you are getting prompted to back up your device but you are unable to join your updated Wi-Fi setup. I recommend the troubleshooting from this article named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on
Restart your iOS device.
Unable to connect to a Wi-Fi network
Verify that you're attempting to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Make sure you're entering your Wi-Fi password correctly. Passwords may be case sensitive and may contain numbers or special characters.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

Thanks for the quick advice!
Unfortunately, I am still unable to open my core productivity apps, namely Skype and Evernote. Twitter, as well, could not start. But interesting quick fix though, I never knew you could do that.
Here's the error log after the restart:
What else should I try?
