Firfox 3.6.13 locks up after openning

When I open 3.6.13 it opens ok. Then when I try to access a website it locks up and is unresponsive. I have reloaded the program and shut of my AVAST anitvirus to see if that makes a difference. It does not. I have also scanned for spyware and viruses. No effect.
Help
This just suddenly started two days ago

So, In my case on this problem, I have systematically narrowed it down to the Shockwave Flash plugin in the Firefox add-ons. When I disable this FF addon Firefox no longer locks up but it does disallow any Flash operations on pages that use them. The pages will still load and operate but the Flash files will not run. It's not a total solve yet, but it's more than Mozilla is offering here in this forum.
Don't un-install and re-install FF... it won't fix a thing. To disable Shockwave Flash (in version 3.6.13) go to a simple page like Google (that doesn't use Flash) and open Tools/Add-ons and select the plugins box at the top. Then scroll down to Shockwave Flash and on the right-hand side "Disable" this action.
I can only assume (that in my case) this addon has become corrupt and needs to be somehow removed and updated.
I hope that this helps some (if not most) who are having this problem and I will perhaps offer an update soon as to how to (simply) get Flash back working again in FF. But since I don't get paid by Mozilla I don't exactly have time to keep chipping away at the answer to their obvious "hanging" problem.

RawTherapee Locks Up After Opening "About"

RawTherapee: If I open "About" from "Preferences", there is no way to close "About". The Preferences panel becomes unresponsive. I cannot "Quit" the program. I need to get its PID and kill it.

Cannot reproduce in wmii.
Before filing your bug report, make sure you can still reproduce the bug after updating with "pacman -Syu". Then in your bug report, make sure you provide information about what desktop environment or window manager you use.

IPhoto ver. 8.1.2 locks up after opening

I am new to Mac and have recently bought a MacBook Pro with SN and iPhoto installed.
I recently completed downloading my jpg file photographs to iPhoto from files from a CD ROM and then I added some photos from a SD card from my camera.
iPhoto worked OK for a short period, but now if I open it from the dock it opens fine, but attempting to open any function causes the program to freeze and the only way I can get out of it is to use hold Cmd-Opt-shift-Esc for much longer than four seconds.
All the while the program has frozen I have the circular busy cursor running and I cannot open any other programs or carry out any other actions in iPhoto.
Can anyone offer any advise, please?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Adobe Bridge CC locks out my access to hard drive after opening-window shows lock but will not unloc

What are you calling the user window? If the Folders view this should be same a OS view of folders.

The buttons in main the vi get locked after opening a vi reference in a subpanel and using buttons within the subpanel.

I am trying to open a reference to a vi in the subpanel of the main vi. However after the vi opens in the subpanel and after pressing a few buttons in the subpanel the buttons in the main vi get locked, i.e. I can't even close the main vi or control anything else. Is there any way how I can avoid this happening?

This is most likely happening because in either the top or sub panel,
there is an event structure that is queuing events, and is set to lock
the panel until the events are handled, and because of the logic in the
diagram, the events aren't being pulled from the queue.
So, you have a deadlock. You are waiting
on the panel. The panel is
waiting on the diagram. And the diagram is waiting on something else.
So, if there are indeed event structures involved, determine where in
the diagram things are delaying. Also, if you do not need the panel to
lock until the event is handled, you can change the setting in the
events dialog on the structure. But the events will still be queued
until the diagram starts executing.

Can you lock a window open?

I've been having a problem that I can't seem to solve. Command-k allows me to connect to the company server quickly, at least it does the first time I use it after startup. If I close the window to the server, subsequent connections take forever.
Our IT guy fixed it once, but the problem is back and he's part-time and not around. It seems that installing a system update undid his fix.
I figured out a work-around, that is IF there's a way to lock the window open so I can't close it, then I don't have to worry about slow connection times after the initial connection.
Does anyone have a way to "lock" the window open? If the red dot could be disabled this would work.

That's what I usually try to do, but sometimes I close it before I realize that I don't want to, and then I have to wait a long time to reconnect to the server.
I'm pretty sure I've seen windows that don't have the standard "red, yellow, green" buttons in the upper left. Usually opened during an install or something. I was hoping for some hack I could apply to the window I want to stay open.

MacBook Pro locking up after fresh install...

I was givin a MacBook Pro (A1276) at my old job because we had a customer that didn't want to pay for repairs and just was sick of looking at it. So I took it on as a project. Now I'm quite seasoned with PC's and Windows based software, but Mac and OSX I've never had to work on at this level. So I'm lost. This system has a Core2 Duo @ 2.40GHz, 4GB DDR3, 500GB Toshiba HDD, GeForce 320M... anything short of slow. Esspesialy for an operation system that makes better use of it's resources than say, Windows.
Now, originally, it was running so slow, a reinstall of OSX (Mavericks) over the internet via recovery, wasnt even possible. ANY thing you tried to do, would start the system beachballing non-stop. It would just sit like that for hours. After opening the laptop up, reseating ALL visable connections on the mainboard, everything started to work. I was finally able to complete a restore using Mavericks and got it up and running like a hot knife through butter. Now, after about a day or so of use, it starts acting up again. You open ANYTING, and it locks up and starts beachballing again. I've reinstalled OSX 5 times now, same thing each time. Works for a while, then is unuseable. But before I couldnt even do that much. Now I started to think it is the HDD, but it always passes every test I run. I dont know what to try next. The system isnt running hot, and nothing is eating at the CPU. It just, locks up... Someone help me!

This is my current output stat...

Data lock even after commit work and wait

Hi Experts,
Data is still locked even after commit work and wait step has run, which made me very confusing.
The following are the details:
These steps are in a FOP.
Step1: Change Move-in Date of a move-in document in background after get the new move-date from user.
Step2: Run BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT and pass the wait parameter.
Step3: Bring move-in document transaction to the user for other information changes.
After the user confirms the changes and presses SAVE button, error message shows that the move-in document is still locked. But no other transaction is opened for the specified move-doc changing.
Does any1 have any idea on this? How can I solve this issue?
Thanks in advance and points will be rewarded.
Vincent

Hi,
Normally every BAPI will work on Update task so that the data will be updated once the commit work is done. For the commit work, we will normally call the bapi function module - BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT. It should work.
In your case, just try the below option:
Please call the bapi - BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST & BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT in a seperate function module and call this function module in your program (just pass the import / export / table parameters accordingly).
For the information, I had once a similar type of issue and it got solved once I did like the above.

HT201263 iPhone 4s locked up after failed attempts. Power button is jammed

My friends iPhone locked up after he forgot his password. He gave it to me because I usually fix iDevices around my school. Well, I thought it would be a simple fix but his power button is jammed. I can't enter recovery mode to restore. I tried using tinyumbrella to enter recovery mode but it isn't detecting his iPhone. I need help. Please

When the iPhone turns OFF due to battery running down, open iTunes on computer, hold down Home button and keep holding while connecting iPhone to computer, keep holding until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode (this should take less than 20 seconds of holding down home button), then click Restore button of iTunes.

IPhone 4s with ios6 all apps crashing after opening

iPhone 4s with ios6 all apps crashing after opening. Yesterday my phone started to crash. Everytime i started whatsapp or others, it stars working at first than goes back main screen. Resetted the device by pushing home and lock buttons. Nothing happened. Tried to format and it's worked again. But i don't want to set my phone from beginning. When i restored from backups nothing happened. Only hard format fixed. what else can i do with this situation ?

@alperkilislioglu,
Try restoring it but set it up as a new iPhone this time. If that does not work then bring it to Apple.

Lock fields after send a PDF file

Hello all,
I have done an application that consists in fill in many fields using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 program.
After many fields are filled, I click on a Regular button that sends an e-mail.
When I receive the e-mail, I download the attached pdf file to a determined folder.
The problem is that when I open this generated PDF I am able to edit the fields.
Is there any way to lock fields after clicking the Send button?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Roberto

After your code for emailing the form, place additional line of script for making the form as editable..
Language: Java Script/ FormCalc
<parentSubform>.access = "readOnly";
parentSubform is the root subform node of your form..

I just went to the new Lion OS from Leopard OS, and when I'm on the internet, it locks up after about 5 or 10 minutes. WhY?

I just went to the new Lion OS from Leopard OS, and when I'm on the internet, it locks up after about 5 or 10 minutes. WhY?

From Leopard or Snow Leopard? If the former then I suggest you erase the drive and reinstall Lion:
Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal 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.
Erase the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
Be sure to run Software Update for any additional updates.
