Firefox will not start unless reboot has been done. If start is attempted, Firefox gets hung up, cannot close or log off from Windows.

I can start Firefox when I have just rebooted. If I close Firefox and come back later and try to restart Firefox, it tries to start but never does. A Control/Alt/Delete shows that it is running, but it does not load the screen. I cannot turn Firefox off or log off from Windows.

Serial will not connect unless MAX has been started

Hello All,
I am using Labview 7.0 , MAX 4.6.0f1, NI-VISA 3.0, Windows XP. A Microchip PIC USB device is attached to the Labview PC, the PIC embedded code registers as a Virtual Serial port and behaves as expected, I use Labview to read and writes simple fames of text.
I found I can communicate ok with the device and need to create a distributable Application, this is where I have found problems. I installed the application on a different machine but I don't see any serial COM x text in the serial drop down list. I was expecting similar function to the device manager which enumerates serial ports on the fly (including the PIC i am using)
Having read a few posts it looks like I need VISA runtime. I thought I was including this in my application as I selected, Tools > Build Application>Installer Settings> Create Installer X > Advanced > Serial Port Support. The only thing that seems to make the application pick up the serial ports is to run MAX first. I would prefer not to force users (15 to 20) to install MAX and then have the Labview automate a MAX startup when the program is started. This seems a bit clunky.
Advice appreciated
Thanks Chris

Hello Jamie,
Thankyou for the responce, I have tried ( and tried ) to get this to work without success so far. I downloaded NI visa301full.exe and followed the instructions regarding the batch.bat file however when I finally got the visa install popup to appear it progresses to the progress bar window, the progress bar fills to about 30% for 1 of 16 then removes the progress, waits a few seconds then part fill the progress bar again, and repeats over and over till I cancel. After some reading I noticed the batch file is only needed for multiple exe install so I removed the batch file and have been trying to call the visa301full.exe directly to make things simpler.
I tried manually installing the visa301full.exe and this worked fine, so at least I can see my application and visa301full.exe working together when they are installed. Ive attached my build file as hopefully Ive done something daft there. I think its probably nearly there, I appreciate your help and advice.
Regards Chris

I get as far as what appears to be restoring my phone then when the software has downloaded, iTunes insists on my phone accepting it's access. I had carried out this action two weeks ago when I had the same issue on my phone and managed to restore it successfully, but it isn't happening now. I have updated iTunes to the latest version since the last time, and also my iPhone to the latest version. I have had endless trouble with this phone so having gone through all the steps suggested in various forums it is clear that it is an issue with the phone, not helped by the recent iOS and iTunes updates with stricter security.

PSE 9 was running fine but will not start now and I get the following message: This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way.

Give this a try:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

My macbook will not start up. It gets stuck on the page with the apple and the pinwheel. Can anyone assist?

My macbook will not start up. It gets stuck on teh opening page with the apple. It was working fine and all of a sudden i cant get it to work. Does anyone know what could be wrong with it? Or, is there a bypass to the start up page?

You won't lose your files unless something goes very wrong -- which may already have happened. You absolutely must have a backup before you do anything else. If you don't already have one, boot from your installation disc and follow the instructions in this article under "Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility":

My macbook pro will not start up. I get the apple logo and the little start up waiting avitar. I tried everything including starting with my back up drive and nothing happens.

My macbook pro mid 2012 will not start up. I was running bitdefender and when I went to see if it was done, I had the apple logo and the loading (winding circle) on the screen. I can not get out of this. I used my back up external drive and it did nothing. It did light up.

samnleosgpa,
you may have faulty RAM. Are you able to boot into your MacBook Pro’s Apple Hardware Test (“AHT”)? If so, try running it to see if it can detect a problem. If you’re not able to run its AHT, and you’ve upgraded your MacBook Pro’s RAM before, try reïnstalling its original RAM and see if you can get past the “-6002F” error code. If you aren’t able to run its AHT, and you haven’t upgraded its RAM or you no longer have its original RAM, then I’d recommend that you make an appointment at your nearest Apple store to have them diagnose the problem.

I searched other posts and someone suggested that I go to setup on the front of the printer and then tools. I did a cleaning twice and now it makes copies again. The first time I did the cleaning it still did not work, the second cleaning did it. I would strongly suggest to HP that they address this issue in their troubleshooting docs. They don't even mention not making a copy, they only talk about printing, two diiferent issues.

Since getting version 22 (release update channel) I had a few days with very large text; today, Firefox will not start. How to get it running again???

I've searched for an .exe file in Firefox program files, but there doesn't seem to be one anywhere. I'd like to uninstall, download a new program and reinstall, but I'd rather not lose bookmarks and other settings.
Running Windows 7 on a Sony Vaio laptop. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox, you WILL NOT lose any bookmarks, history, and settings. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

Songs purchased through iTunes on iPhone 4 get download error and will not load. Account has been charged for the purchase.

I purchased an album through iTunes on my iPhone 4, and my PayPal account has been charged for the entire album. However, all but 2 songs would download to my phone. The other 2 have a download error. Any suggestions on how to fix the error, or to get a refund for the songs that I can't get?

The error, "Restart Required. Lightroom has encountered a problem with its menus. Some menu commands will not work until Lightroom has been restarted" appears in Lightroom.

I updated to 5.7 a few days ago and I just now encountered this problem while importing some photos. Is this a common problem?

Hey Guy's, Thank you for the recommendations to fix his problem and I did restart my browser, etc.. and all was corrected. But, I have been with Lightroom for a while, starting with LR3. I can not remember having one problem, except for my errors, until I started with LR5 and I have some kind of problem hourly! I do not have many presets or plug-ins so I don't think that was really a problem. It crashes constantly, I can edit 4-6 photos and then it starts slowing down and I have to do a restart. It does, on occasion, jump around from the develop controls and even changes modes, crashes and sometimes I just wait it out and it will open in the print mode or slideshow! I find photos all over my computer that it sent on its own. I did download and check for malware and other viruses and none were found so I am still troubleshooting everything from my fairly new computer and everything else but I always think when they come out with a newer version to download, it will correct my problems but they only get worse.

Itunes will not open though everything has been tried

i don't think my problem is atypical, but i've tried everthing possible with no luck. when i try to open i tunes a message stating " i tunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" pops up. i've uninstalled and installed dozens of times yet nothing changes. I've also removed norton antivirus and scanned my computer with ewido anti-malware. it fixed any errors. for some reason my quicktime doesn't appea to be installed, i've tried to intstall it and yet it only prompts me to uninstall
it. I've had my ipod for a week and i haven't been able to use it, i'd really appreciate someone's help.

katrina posted this. i did everything, but what worked was the misconfig. thanks again katrina.
top fixes for a new iTunes install/upgrade are
- turning off security software such as Norton before the install as Apple suggests
- installing QuickTime standalone, not regular
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
- setting up Norton to allow iTunes
- scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
- last but not least, using MSCONFIG to find Windows conflicts
