Flash stops working and freezes firefox. I have Fast dial and dont want to lose it so what can I do to fix this?
It doesnt matter what site or what I am doing it will come up randomly and freeze firefox then finally a box pops up and says Flash is busy or not responding continue or stop plugin. Naturally I stop plugin. I always install the latest flash versions I have even uninstall and reinstalled flash and downgraded and still no change or it bugs me to update. I am using firefox 26.0 I usually stay away from the betas if all possible. My biggest worry with using the reset firefox or making a new profile is my fast dial I have tons of sites right there waiting for me to click on and im afraid if I do all this I will lose it. But I have used same profile for years and years so maybe its time. I will just have to redo my fast dial I guess Unless someone can come up with another way to do it. I have disabled hardware acceleration on firefox I have to it makes my browser do some weird things. I also have disabled Hardware acceleration in flash as well. I have cleant temp files and registry. I am good with computers but have never seen issues like this with flash. If anyone could help that would be great. Thanks.
Sounds like you have done a lot. Have you tried to make a new profile for TESTING purposes only? You could have a bad profile. it is possible.
Also, have you tried protect mode for flash? I wrote up a bat file to set it up so you don't have to go digging through system files.
Also i have some unorthodox methods you will not see in these forums to try out if you are interested as they have resolved several peoples that i can confirm issue. I have been going crash free for over 6 months now since i implemented. Believe me some issues nothing in these forums will resolve. Click on my name on the left there is a blog i created just for this issue with all the info and some of the fixes. Everything is fully automated. Very little user interaction.
This will NOT work for everyone, but you cant hurt by trying
Best regards

I have a virgin moble iphone that i found, the power button doesn't work and the phone is saying disabled,what can i do to fix it?
Probably nothing, the phone has a high likelihood of being stolen and if you try to Restore it you will run into Activation Lock. Turn it in to the local authorities.

A while back a friend added an event that repeats every day, but it also lasts a year. This has completely thrown off my calendar. I cannot add events or delete them. Unfortunately I have my calendar backed up to iCloud. So, I decided to try and turn the calendar backup off. Does not work, I get a loading symbol for like 10 minutes and then it is still turned on. I have no idea how to fix this and I would rather not have to completely resore my phone. Help!!!
ok, for example for my photos it say 1.9gb on the phone (before it was like 4 or more) but in backup still 4. should i just turn off camera roll in backup options?

says entry point not found
Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
Some security software has virtualization or sandbox features that may cause problems by protecting and restoring files in the Firefox profile folder.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
*Firefox 28: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
*Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
*(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

I was on facebook accepting gifts from farmville ,when I got a resnd window from firefox ,which I clicked on ..then everything,all posts disappeared....and I can't get it back,signed off back on...refreshed...did a cleanup on my computer ...still nothing.
Try to go through the set up once again.
If that doesnt work, check your virus protection and under internet apps or some such thing, make sure itunes is not blocked from the internet.
Most cases it's not the internet that's the issue it's the program itself, but if this is bugging you, I suggest you at least make sure.

went to purchase a song this morning and when i got confirm buy or cancel it froze thankfully phone work fine anywhere else just this app is froze how do i correct this?
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

It sounds like your MBP is having kernel panics. Log one and post it for inspection.

I have a C610 issue on my Canon PIXMA ip3600. What can I do to fix this?
Can someone help me with a C610 error on my Canon PIXMA ip3600 printer?
Hello luckydogs.
This error may occur if one of the ink tanks was not seated properly or when there is a loose object stuck inside the printer. Please try the following:
1. With the cover of the printer open, unplug the power from the back of the printer or the wall.
2. Look for any loose objects or packing material in the printer, clear if necessary.
3. Try gently moving the ink tank holder as close to you as possible. Try pushing the closest ink tank down. Once clicked into place, try moving the ink tank holder closer, repeat as needed. If you meet resistance, do not attempt to move the ink tank holder any further.
If the issue persists, please contact our support group using the "Contact Us" link below for additional assistance.

why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.
IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use. You need to install the Plugin version of Flash for Firefox.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
Save it to your Desktop.<br />
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
