Hi..
Try Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

I have totally "uninstalled" what I had and then reinstalled the newest version of itunes. Still...... First, when I click on the itunes icon to load it takes the program anywhere from two to three minutes to load. None of my other programs take this

I have totally "uninstalled" what I had and then reinstalled the newest
version of itunes. Still......
First, when I click on the itunes icon to load it takes the program anywhere
from two to three minutes to load. None of my other programs take this
long.
When in the itunes program I can be moving around in my library and itunes
when choosing a song or songs, choosing file, edit, etc,. whatever command I
choose it just suddenly stops. I can issue five commands and watch each one
respond in 30 second to two minute intervals. I can issue several commands,
even shutting down, and it will do all but takes several minutes to do so.
My itunes program was working fine when this problem suddenly arose.
Terry

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

My MacBook pro 2012 Mountain Loin 8.2 don't clear the inactive memory automatically when memory needed for other program so I get page outs.

My MacBook Pro 2012 Mountain Loin 8.2 doesn't clear the inactive memory automatically when memory needed for other program so I get page outs. There are much inactive memory when page outs. Why my mac does this?

That's completely normal. If other programs require memory then the system will reallocate Inactive RAM as needed. Page Outs don't mean anything.
About OS X Memory Management and Usage
Reading system memory usage in Activity Monitor
Memory Management in Mac OS X
Performance Guidelines- Memory Management in Mac OS X
A detailed look at memory usage in OS X
Understanding top output in the Terminal
The amount of available RAM for applications is the sum of Free RAM and Inactive RAM. This will change as applications are opened and closed or change from active to inactive status. The Swap figure represents an estimate of the total amount of swap space required for VM if used, but does not necessarily indicate the actual size of the existing swap file. If you are really in need of more RAM that would be indicated by how frequently the system uses VM. If you open the Terminal and run the top command at the prompt you will find information reported on Pageins () and Pageouts (). Pageouts () is the important figure. If the value in the parentheses is 0 (zero) then OS X is not making instantaneous use of VM which means you have adequate physical RAM for the system with the applications you have loaded. If the figure in parentheses is running positive and your hard drive is constantly being used (thrashing) then you need more physical RAM.
Adding RAM only makes it possible to run more programs concurrently. It doesn't speed up the computer nor make games run faster. What it can do is prevent the system from having to use disk-based VM when it runs out of RAM because you are trying to run too many applications concurrently or using applications that are extremely RAM dependent. It will improve the performance of applications that run mostly in RAM or when loading programs.

I have been using firfefox 3.6.8 since release and have had no problems running Windows 7. Today, I am unable to print anything from the internet using firefox. IE 8 as well as all other programs print fine. Any suiggestions appreciated. Thjansk.

I am unable to print using Firefox 3.6.8 starting today. All other programs print fine including IE8. I am using Win7 64bit. I did not change any configurations and voila - today the problem started.
Thanks for any help.

Why does Firefox Mobile stop loading when using VPN?

When I'm connected to Private Internet Access VPN on my phone (using their app in the play store) occasionally Firefox gets into a state in which no webpages can be loaded. I can fix the problem in one of two ways: (1) use Google Chrome for Android or any other app that uses the internet or (2) disconnect from VPN and use Firefox without that protection. Sometimes when I reconnect to VPN, Firefox pages will load again but sometimes not.
The loading bar in Firefox Mobile always gets stuck in the same spot, which I am thinking could be diagnosed to determine which part of the http protocol it might be stuck at. I am hoping I can attach a screenshot.
I really believe in what you guys are doing. Keep fighting the good fight.

It could possibly be that the dns is failing, but to be sure there would need to be a log and need to be tested on lte and wireless to see if its consistent.

Firefox won't load when using desktop/start menu icons but loads when starting off links in emails

When I try to start Firefox by the start menu, desktop or any other icon Firefox opens but then freezes and won't respond at all.
If I go to an email and then click on a link than Firefox will open and then load as normal and I can then go about using Firefox.
This has only be happening for the last few days and I have tried all the trouble shots and nothing has changed.

I Have this problem too. won't even start when dbl click the .exe file directly either. but a link in another app or email works fine. I have tried all the stuff here and uninstalled and reinstalled countless times. Using new profile, disabling Norton firewall and antivirus for the installs, only thing that worked was going back to v3.6. and a real early thunderbird too (it was also crashing on starting) Was fine for about three weeks then updated them, The went in stages not all at once and was fine till the newest group of versions. then went back to crashing. this time backgrading did not work. I installed the newest versions Firefox & Thunderbird many more times and by accident found that fresh after a install could open TB first and click a link in a email and FF started ok.
but still will not start from desktop or windows explorer
It is ridiculous to have to open another app to click on a link you don't want to get to where you do want. What is the difference in the links.
ks
also would not start in safe mode or a completely new install.
V.17.0 is the FF thats installed now and at least works as long as I don't try to open it
from desktop or windows explorer, more than a little nervous about going to v.20.

Firefox 6 wont load when I click on it.

I tried un-installing and re-installing, but it still won't load. It doesn't matter if I double click on the firefox.exe in the mozilla\firefox dir or double click on the desktop icon, etc. Taskbar doesn't ever show the firefox process.

We had a power outage yesterday and my computer lost power, the system restored, but firefox won't load, I didn't want to upgrade to ff6 yet on my desktop, is there anyway I can reload ff5?

Firefox can not load Gmail after longon. Other browsers, no problems

Hi:
When I click on Firefox icon, it takes a while to come up. Even after that, when I click on Gmail and log on, it keeps loading and loading and loading. It does not open the mail promptly. With Windows Internet Explorer, everything goes very fast. Why I should use Firefox at all? what and where is the problem?
Thanks.
Kris

Firefox keeps freezing in office, but not in other public/home network

Firefox keeps freezing starting from yesterday in my office wireless network. When it is opened, the browser screen does not show up, I have to right click on the icon in order to have the screen brought up. Search bar and tab functions respond real slow. However, everything works perfectly fine in public and my home network.
I'd really appreciate your input and help.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Firefox doesn't load my banking website but other browsers do even after virus and malware scan and cookies & cache cleared

I have cleared cookies and cache, scanned with Panda and still can't load my banking website. I can load the website with any other browser I've tried with no problems.
This is with Firefox in safe mode and in regular mode.

It sounds as though you have worked through this article: [[Firefox can't load websites but other browsers can]].
Do you notice any difference between secure sites and non-secure sites in what error message you get?
Do you use any kind of content filtering or parental control software?

Couldn't install Firefox 6 because the setup saidall firefox must be closed before proceeding and no other programs were open. couldn't go back and reinstall 3.6.

I was using firefox 3.6. Received a message to upgrade. I downloaded firefox 6. In the set-up procedure the error message "saying firefox must be closed to proceed." No firefox or other program was working.
Gave up and found 3.6 wasn't working any longer. Tried to reinstall 3.6 and the same error message stopped me.
I am sending this via Internet explorer.

I have the exact same problem, same version of CS, and exact same error details.
In my case, I had CS4 installed and running fine for a couple of months, under Vista Ultimate 64 on a Gateway P-173XL FX laptop. Then my hard drive crashed and I rebuilt it from scratch, reformatting and reinstalling the OS.
CS4 was one of the first apps I tried to reinstall. I had some trouble with it, as the installation kept running into errors:
     Adobe Color JA Extra Settings CS4
     Error 1603. Internal error 2203.
     C:\Windows\Installer\33f6ffc.msi   -2147287035
Per advice from this forum, I downloaded and ran the CS4InstallerDatabaseUtility to make sure all vestiges of the failed installation were removed. Tried the installation again, and got:
     Adobe WinSoft Logistics Plugin
     Error 1603. Internal error 2203.
     C:\Windows\Installer\3833d9c.msi    -2147287035
Same error, different place. Tried again:
     Adobe Color NA Recommended Settings CS4
     Error 1603. Internal error 2203.
     C:\Windows\Installer\3cb0bc.msi    -2147287035
Lather, rinse, repeat. A little different this time:
     Adobe Bridge CS4
     Fatal error during installation.
This time, when I tried to run the CS4InstallerDatabaseUtility prior to another attempt, it failed with the same error that rdhinman reported:
     File "CS4InstallerDatabaseUtility.py", line 1263, in RemoveSessionFromCaps
     UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe0' in position 163: ordinal not in range(128)
     C:\Users>
Needless to say this is highly frustrating, especially since the installation and operation of CS4 pre-crash was flawless. Any suggestions would be most welcome.
