Firefox setup file keeps coming up on screen

whenever i open firefox the popup you have chosen to open FIREFOX SETUP 3.6.11.EXE which is a binary file from hhtp://ftp.halifax.rathaachen.de would you like to save this file? save or cancel. no matter what i do it just keeps coming back up on opening firefox?

Try to clear the Download list or remove that file from the list if you want to preserve a list of downloaded files.
See Tools > Downloads
You may need to delete downloads.sqlite in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] if the problem persists.

Hello Sean,
It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:

If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

Difficulty converting file keeps coming up with "file failed to be converted using Adobe ExportPDF online

Can't convert file keeps coming up with message "file failed to be converted using Adobe ExportPDF online.

Hi Dude291,
I'm sorry that you're having trouble with ExportPDF. Can you please tell me a bit more about what's going on, so we can get to the bottom of the issue?
What browser are you using? Have you tried clearing the browser cache?
Are you converting from within Reader, or directly via the ExportPDF website?
Are you able to convert other files? Or is the error specific to this one file?
How large or complex is the file that you're trying to convert?
Are you accessing ExportPDF from a networked computer that may have firewall/proxy settings that are limiting access to the Internet?
I think that's good for starters. Please get back to us with some detail about the problem and we will see what we can do.
Best,
Sara

Files Keep Coming Up Missing

Everytime I log into Lightroom, random files keep coming up missing and I don't know. I am definately not moving anything around and it's very randon on the files it loses. This has been happenign a long time, at first I thoght it something I was doing but Im confident now that it's not me since Ive moitoring it very carefully.
Has anyone else delt with this?

Right, the files aren't missing from the computer, but Lightroom shows them as missing or cannot find the file. Im using Windows XP and the latest version of Lightroom. It's not a memory or hard disk problem, that has been checked.
Im not sure what Catalog Intergrity Checks are?
Don, I couldnt see your thread. :(

Error code 404 keeps coming up on screen when I try to access Vodafone website (using Mac Pro)

Error code 404 keeps coming up on screen when I try to access Vodafone website (using Mac Pro)
Any ideas why only started happening in last week ?

404 means the page you are looking for doesn't exist, if you are using a bookmark
type the website directly into your browser.
otherwise:
open terminal> type:
traceroute www.vodafone.com.au
you should get something like this:

HT201485 I cannot remember my iCloud password. Caption keeps coming on the screen asking for password

while operating my iPad 2 it keeps asking for icloud.com password which I do not remember. Caption keeps coming on the screen. Very frustating.

Hello monanikhil,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’ve forgotten your Apple ID password, which your iPad is prompting you to enter. The article linked below outlines both the process and options for resetting your Apple ID password.

PDF files keep coming with old file name not as current file name

Hi,
I have a problem when exporting InDesign docs to PDF with some documnets. If I change the name in the export dialog box, then every time I export this doc to PDF in the future this name keep coming, even when I change the name of the document or save it in a new name. This causes confusion, since sometimes the name is completely different from the InDesign file name. What can be done to tell InDesign to save the exported PDF file according to the current file name and don’t remember the old PDF file name?
I was thinking of a script, is there a ready one to use?
Thanks

Thanks for the tips, very useful indeed.
Though it is bit hard to have everyone in the studio follow them as a routine. I way I used to do this is to go to Save as command, with right mouse I choose copy the highlighted document name, then I choose cancel, then when I choose to export I'll paste the the name which is the current file name, this is good for me, but I wouldn't dream of having this as a routine for everyone in the studio.
I was thinking it would be easy if I can find a script, since I don't know scripting, to do just that, i.e. have Indesign to copy the current filename of the document (whether by doing the same trick as I am doing or if there is a direct command to do that in the script), then the script will go to the export dialog box, paste that name, then I will go on with the normal export dialog box options.
This script will be easier to have everybody in the studio to follow.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks

ICloud has the wrong I'd and keeps coming on my screen and won't let me change it this is an iPhone 5c and I can't use the phone

MMy iPhone has the wrong I'd in the iCloud settting and it keeps coming on and asking for a pass word that doesn't exist and neither does the id So what to do to get rid of it because I can't use my phone! It won't let me do anything

If so, go to id.apple.com, manage apple id, sign in with current id, edit email back to the one showing in icloud settings. You can now sign out of icloud with your current password. Then back to id.apple.com, change your email back to the current one, verify it and sign back in to icloud.

WHEN OPENING A FILE WITH FIREFOX MULTIPLE FILES KEEP OPENING IN RAPID SUCCESSION WITHOUT SHOWING ANY CONTENT AND THIS DOES NOT STOP AND I CANNOT SAY HOW MANY FILES I HAVE

THERE IS A PROBLEM IN OPENING ANY FILE. WHEN OPENING - A RAPID SUCCESSION OF FILES OPEN, ONE ATOP THE NEXT, WITHOUT SHOWING FILE'S CONTENT. THIS CONTINUES FOR QUITE A WHILE. I MUST TURN OFF COMPUTER. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO CHOOSE ANY OTHER FUNCTION WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING, IE : WHEN OPENING A FILE. AS IN , I CANNOT OPEN GOOGLE OR MAIL, ETC. AND THE FILES KEEP OPENING AS UNTITLED. SO I AM NOT ABLE TO OPEN ANY ONE FILE, AND SEE ITS CONTENT, THEY JUST KEEP STACKING LIKE EMTY PAGES ONE ON TOP OF THE NEXT.

THANK YOU
THAT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE THE ANSWER
I HAVE A MAC
BOUGHT IN 2008

PE4 "Where is the file" keeps coming up

On a slideshow that I created in Photoshop Elements 6 and saved as a wmv file then finished with music and credits and bonus clips in Premier Elements 4, keeps saying "Where is the file IMG 123 jpg" I have gone back to Photoshop to see what is missing in my slideshow because I did recently change the name of some photos...BUT, I changed them in photoshop so that I could avoid this problem.
When I open the slideshow in photoshop, it doesn't tell me something is missing. I saved it again as wmv to be sure I have a clean copy, but it still pops up missing in premier.
If there is a way to see which picture it is saying is missing while in Premier, that will be helpful. I have done a search in my computer for this file, but can't find it. It seems to have been either moved or deleted because I see the photo number before the one that is missing.
How do I either see the picture they are talking about or how can I find the missing file.
Thank you

Hi, Kathy--
Since version 5, Photoshop Elements has incorporated into its workflow a slideshow interchange format, which sends the slideshow to Premiere Elements at full quality. You can even break the file apart in Premiere Elements and continue to work with the native photos!
It only works with matched versions, however. Which means Photoshop Elements 5/Premiere Elements 3; Photo Elements 6/Premiere Elements 4; Premiere and Photo Elements 7.
To use it, just select the option to Send to Premiere Elements from the Photo Elements Slideshow Creator. (I do recommend, for best results, that all of your photos are no larger than 1000x750 pixels though.)
There's much more information and step-by-step instructions in my Steve's Tips article in the members area at Muvipix.com.

I have downloaded firefox 4 twice and installed it, and my firefox browser still keeps coming up everytime i open it.

I went through the whole process of downloading the new version, installing it, and then at the end when you press launch firefox, the old browser version still comes up. I have done this twice already and do no understand what the problem is.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.<br />
See:
* [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

You may also need to check your security software (firewall) and make sure that it doesn't block Firefox.

Mac os x setup assitant keeps coming up

So I upgraded my macbook the other day and I just shut it down for the first time since then and now when ever I type in my passwork it kicks me to the setup assitant. I did the setup about 10-15 times and it still kicks me back to enter my password then it goes back to setup. Please help

I'd try a "repair permissions" from the Leopard install DVD before reinstalling, especially if you have documents your want to retrieve on your HD. Boot up your computer from the Leopard DVD - insert it in the drive and hold down "C" as it starts up - and then choose a language, then go to the 'Utilities' drop-down menu and choose "Disk Utility." Then follow the instructions from this Apple article to repair your permissions.
After that, restart your computer using your HD. . . I think there is a "restart system" or somesuch option from one of those drop-down menus (maybe "choose HD to restart from?") on the Leopard DVD.
If that works, good. If not, you might want to try "archive and install."
I'd suggest you do a "erase and install" if there is no data on your HD that you want to save (and there probably IS, so choose this with caution) or if you're backed-up your data.
Try this and let us know what happens!

OLD TRASHED FILES KEEP COMING BACK

Some of you Gurus will probably find this most amusing, and it was amusing to me at first, but now it's getting on my nerves.
PROBLEM:
A few weeks ago, I downloaded a bunch of old western movie MP4 files into my Finder Movie List. I then converted them to VOB files so I can put them on my External Hard Drive and view them on my TV.
I somehow accidently deleted them and also emptied my trash with them in it. These files were all around 1.5 to 2.0 GB in size.
ATTEMTED SOLUTION:
OK, so I thought no problem, I still have the original MP4 files, but when I tried to convert them to VOB, they almost instantly popped back into my finder list, retrieved from the bits and pieces left from the original VOB files I had trashed, and in very low quality 1 MB or less files. ..... useless.
So now I have to figure out how to prevent these old low quality VOB files from re-populating my play list of VOB files.
I know one of you smart guys out there can help, it's just a little over my head.
Thanks so much everyone.
Now you can laugh.

Seeing as none of the smart guys answered this, I thought I'd have a go instead. Please lower your expectations.
It sounds like you need to empty a cache or delete the application's .plist perhaps.
What is the application you are using to convert these video files?

Mysterious locked textedit file "~" keeps coming back

Since a few days suddenly a TextEdit document appears at the top of my folder list on my HD. The file is called "~" and it's 2.5MB in size. I had to change the permissions to open it. The file contains a lot of text, mostly gibberish, but I also recognize a lot of stuff that's on my computer. I ran a virus check, but everything is fine. I threw the file away, but a few hours later it was back again. I'm not comfortable with the whole thing, as it feels like malware to me, even though I have no idea what malware would look like.
Does this sound familiar to anyone?
I'm working on a MacBook Pro (late 2013), MacOs 10.10.2
Thank you for your help!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a general summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a particular line of text to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
These are not specific instructions; just an overview. The details are in parts 7 and 8 of this comment. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time.
5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. Load this linked web page (on the website "Pastebin.") The title of the page is "Diagnostic Test." Below the title is a text box headed by three small icons. The one on the right represents a clipboard. Click that icon to select the text, then copy it to the Clipboard on your computer by pressing the key combination command-C.
If the text doesn't highlight when you click the icon, select it by triple-clicking anywhere inside the box. Don't select the whole page, just the text in the box.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window to activate it. Paste from the Clipboard into the window by pressing command-V, then press return. The text you pasted should vanish immediately.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
[Process started]
        Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
        Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
        The test results are on the Clipboard.
        Please close this window.
[Process completed]
The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak for themselves, not for me. The test itself is harmless, but whatever else you're told to do may not be. For others who choose to run it, I don't recommend that you post the test results on this website unless I asked you to.
