After adding plug-ins to block ads, my firefox no longer opens--it hangs/freeze--i have tried to restart, even deleted firefox and downloaded a new version--to no avail! please advise--

Last night I aded a few plug-ins to block ads including Google's--after restarting my computer (Mac OS X 10.6.8), my firefox no longer opened, i.e. it hangs/freeze when I open it--I have tried to restart, open in safe mode, even deleted firefox altogether and downloaded a new version, to no avail! Please advise! I have been trying to revive Firefox for hours today--

Hey rumon,
Have you tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode? Hold down "option" while Firefox is starting up. If the crash doesn't happen in Safe Mode, you should read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
There is also a lot of useful stuff in the [[Firefox crashes]] Knowledge Base article. If you've recently upgraded, you might want to check out [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues#w_firefox-crashes-when-i-start-it this article] as well.
Hopefully this helps!

FYI: New version of Disk Warrior seems to hang when run with Snow Leopard

FYI: It seems that the new version of Disk Warrior hangs when run in Snow Leopard

I have been using DW 4.2 on 10.5.8 and the speed-up was the first thing I noted, too, so it isn't just SL.
Now if it would only 'come up for air' and respond to input to move window (so I can put it where I can see it if needed) I'd like that.
There is a 23 page review of Snow Leopard on Ars. On page 22:
People sometimes ask what, exactly, is wrong with HFS+.
Aside from its obvious lack of the features just listed, HFS+ is limited in many ways by its dated design, which is based on HFS, *a twenty-five year-old file system.*
To give just one example, the centrally located Catalog File, which must be updated for each change to the file system's structure, is a frequent and inevitable source of contention. Modern file systems usually spread their metadata around, both for robustness (multiple copies are often kept in separate locations on the disk) and to allow for better concurrency.
Practically speaking, think about those times when you run Disk Utility on an HFS+ volume and it finds (and hopefully repairs) a bunch of errors. *That's bad, okay?* +*That's something that should not happen*+ with a modern, thoroughly checksummed, always-consistent-on-disk file system unless there are hardware problems (and a ZFS storage pool can actually deal with that as well). And yet it happens all the time with HFS+ disks in Mac OS X when various bits of metadata to get corrupted or become out of date.
Apple gets by year after year, tacking new features onto HFS+ with duct tape and a prayer, but at a certain point there simply has to be a successor—whether it's ZFS, a home-grown Apple file system, or something else entirely. My fingers are crossed for Mac OS X 10.7.
If Disk Utility was reliable in mapping out weak sectors (it is not) and report/log errors. But it doesn't and I trust my data to other file systems when possible. We've come to expect and depend on 3rd party utilities and that Apple First Aid doesn't fix every possible error.
Scanning one drive for errors can take a long time. Maybe it needs to be done, maybe in the background. With 2TB drives it gets worse. Spending hours to scan for errors??? I've set TechTool Pro to concurrently scan anywhere from one to a dozen volumes at once.
An ounce of prevention, as they say, is worth a pound of cure.

New version of Spry available on Labs!

Hey Spry Fans,
We just uploaded the latest version of Spry to
Labs.
We made many improvements to the framework, adding new
attributes and features requested by forum users.
* Switched to using namespaced attributes. Attributes are
now of the form spry:*. The Spry namespace is defined by adding the
the following attribute to the HTML tag of the document:
xmlns:spry="
http://ns.adobe.com/spry".
* Added support for the new spry:content attribute, which
allows the replacement of static content with dynamic content when
JavaScript is enabled. This allows pages to work in a non scripting
environment.
* Added region state notification mechanism.
* Added Prototype's $() convenience function.
* Added support for descending and toggle sort.
* Added support for non-destructive filtering.
* Added data set load interval.
* Added built-in references:
o {ds_CurrentRowNumber}
o {ds_CurrentRowID}
o {ds_SortOrder}
o {ds_SortColumn}
* Filter callback functions now have the following args
passed to them: function myFilterFunc(dataset, rowObj, rowNumber).
Filter callback functions must now return the rowObj passed in, a
new rowObj, or null.
* Added data set support for retrieving XML data via the
POST method and specifying HTTP headers.
* Added a samples directory. It's pretty bare right now, but
over time will contain examples of things asked most frequently in
the forums. One of the more useful samples is the Data Set Explorer
page.
* Misc bug fixes:
o Text data not stored entity encoded.
o Data reference values need to be escaped in JS
expressions.
o RegExp object forces
Spry.Data.Region.processDataRefString() to bail early in IE.
o Spry attributes still exist in generated region output.
o Data set column (node text value) missing when node has an
attribute.
Download it and check it out!
Thanks,

ITunes says new version available / Software Update says no updates???

I started iTunes today on my MacBook Air and it immediately reported that there is a new version of iTunes available. After responding to the prompt regarding a new version by clicking on the "Download iTunes" button, iTunes launched Software Update. However, Software Update does its check and then comes back with a message that there is no software to update.
The version of iTunes on my system is 10.2, not the new 10.2.1. Anyone have any idea why Software Update does not believe there is an update when iTunes does? Any way to fix this?

Same problem here...
I've a 2010Mini and a late2008MBP15, both running OSX 10.6.6.
Updating to 10.2.1 went charming well on the mini, but not the same on the MBP:
iTunes "info on iTunes" shows version 10.1.1 running... even after I removed iTunse (and iTunes Helper) from the HDD and re-installed from a freshly downloaded 10.2.1 DMG file.
As i start iTunes, it shows "upgrade available" message, but software upgrade utility doesn't find any upgrade, of course.
BTW, I even verified iTunes.app version using "file information" and the one in my Applications folder is 10.2.1... but as I run it, it "believes" to be 10.1.1
Any Clue?

Suddenly not able to open a lot of my documents due to "needing a newer version of pages"..?

I just got my Macbook Air in early december (my old macbook was getting too old), and the ONLY version of pages I have is the newest one.
Originally, it worked fine -(it was annoying and not as good as the old pages, in my opinion however) - and I had no issues for about a month. I was able to successfully open and edit all saved files. I submitted most of them to colleagues and teachers through Google Drive, although I'd always save two copies of every document I used - one for my files and one for drive storage. Suddenly, neither will open.
Just recently, my teacher informed me that he was unable to open my documents anymore. I was puzzled by this and attempted to open the document both in drive and on my computer, but was confused when it informed me I "needed a newer version of pages". I have the NEWEST version of pages. This document was saved on the NEWEST VERSION of pages.
About half of my files - both on google drive and in my storage - are now unable to open or even convert due to me getting a notification saying "I need a newer version of pages".
A lot of the files I received were downloaded through google drive as Microsoft Word files, and were automatically converted. They worked fine as a pages document when I received them, and was able to successfully work on them and complete them and then resubmit them through Google Drive. A month later, these same files will not open, due to me needing a newer version, but no newer versions are even available.
My mac also has a remote disc - everything from my old laptop was transferred to my new by apple when I bought it.
However, the old files are not the issue. It's the files that I've downloaded and editing since I bought my new laptop that are the issue.
I'm also not a genius with computers - I've used a mac since 2011, but have never really encountered issues that needed me to really "get to know" the innerly functions of the computer until now.
Help? Some of the said documents are very important to my work and I need to be able to succesfully submit them so others can open them through google drive or dropbox.

I've seen other people solve their issue this very same way, based on other conversations, but my case is different. No older version of pages exists on my laptop.
My laptop is new, so I have no older version of pages anywhere on my laptop - I never installed it.
All files that I transferred from my old laptop to my new laptop that were made using the old pages still work, but a majority of the new documents that I've created since getting my new laptop will not work.
After further investigation, the ONLY files that will not open are files that had been converted from Microsoft Word to pages and then saved.
So, on my new laptop, I would download a file from another user through Google Drive and then convert it from Word to Pages.
The pages documents worked, and I saved them successfully, and I could reopen them when I first created them.
But now, checking them again a month later, all files and only files that had been converted from word to pages say that "I need to update to a newer version of pages" - but all files that were created in pages by me work fine. And so do documents that I downloaded AS pages documents.
This is the notification I see whenever I try to open a file that was originally a word document. All ex-word format pages documents that I converted from word to pages give me this notification and will not allow me to open the document. They worked originally, but now suddenly do not.. why?

New version of iTunes slowness

Apple Software Updater told me that there was a new version of iTunes available so I updated it. The update went just fine. I launched iTunes after the update so I could listen to music and I was presented with the EULA (I don't know why Apple insists that you go through the EULA every time you upgrade. So I clicked on the I agree so that I could go on. iTunes then launched in full screen. It has now been 30 minutes "updating iTunes Library" and still not able to listen to music. Plus iTunes is keeps bring itself to the active application and cannot be minimized. It should not take 30 plus minutes to update the library nor should it be full screen while updating the library nor should it be making itself the active application (it took me 10 minutes to type this article because iTunes keeps coming to the active application.

I just noticed this today. I kept ignoring the apple itunes software update for days, but the darn thing kept bugging me... so I finally gave in. Now iTunes is very sluggish. I wish I could go back to the old version. Maybe I can use my original disks that came with the computer ....

When I open Muse it comes up with a 'new version is available' and when I click on 'install now' it takes me to the adobe muse website where I click on the 'Download' button. It will then come up with 'Muse is downloading now'. It will then take me back to the Muse app again with the same 'install now' message. The new version has not installed, could some one please let me know the reason why it isn't installing.

Hi Jeff I have uninstalled Muse from my applications and have tried to download the new version but it displays a message 'file not found'. I have included a screenshot.

I receive a massage that a new version of ITunes was available (11.1.4). I proceeded to update, the download went ok but when installing the Message “Service ’Apple Mobile Device’ failed to start, verify that you have sufficient Privileges to start system Services”
On pressing retry I got the same message.
On pressing Ignore, I got the message “ITunes was not installed correctly, please reinstall ITunes – Error 7 – (windows error 126)
I reinstalled with the same error messages and the same results.
I uninstalled existing and reinstalled from scratch and the same error messages again.
I try to repair and at the end it said it had installed correctly – but when it tried to start I got the message “This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem” I now get the same message when I first start the computer but when I press ok I receive ““ITunes was not installed correctly; please reinstall ITunes – Error 7 – (windows error 126)” again.
It appears the update has not only corrupted the operating system (Xp Pro SP3) of my computer but I have no backups to my IPhone, my wife’s IPhone or the three others phones that use my computer.
I hope you can advise me how to recover my backups

HT202879 I am stumped - trying to open a recent Pages file but error message says that I need a "newer version" of Pages. My software updates show that there are no updates available. I recently updated Pages but it is not consistent.

I am stumped - I am trying to open a recent Pages file (created with a newer software that I thought was correctly installed recently) but error message says that I need a "newer version" of Pages. My software updates show that there are no updates available. Pages 09 version 4.3 shows as my current version.

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5/5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.1 sometimes can not open its own files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has not only managed to confuse all its users, but also itself.
Note: Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

ITunes says a newer version of software (4.3.3) is available. However, when I download it it gives me an error message after the download is complete. Any solutions?

When I sync my iPhone 4 with iTunes it says that a newer version of software (4.3.3) is available. However, after it appears to download the software I get an error message that the server timed out. What's happening?

This is asked and answered here many times each day. You can do a forum search ( right side of this page).
Disable your firewall/security software and try again.

"A newer version is available" error

A little background: I have a SharePoint farm with 2 web front ends load balanced, a application server and a database server, serving content to over 600 users.
I've started experiencing some issues with users on shared accounts. For ease of use (though I don't like it) a number of staff at certain locations all login with the same user account. We use roaming profiles to maintain consistency between the computers and these shared profiles are mandatory. The internet explorer temp files are not redirected and are stored locally.
These staff members regularly have to update a specific excel spreadsheet in a document library in SharePoint. The shared accounts are not allowed access to SharePoint for tracking and security reasons. So users log into SharePoint using their own credentials.
Lately I've been having an issue of when they open a document and check it out to make edits they get a bar at the top that says "A newer version is available. To modify this workbook, open the latest version or save a copy."
I've verified that it's not been checked out and had the user attempt to check this document out and they still get this error. It seems to be random and possibly per different computers.
I first suspected it was an internet explorer caching issue and adjusted setting to clear the cache on close and to check for a new content on every visit to the page. That didn't seem to make a difference.
We're in the process of rolling out IE 7 and I suspected maybe that would solve this issue, but we're still having the problem. I've also tried repairing and reinstalling office 2007 to no avail. I have the latest service packs and hot fixes on Office 2007 and Windows XP. I haven't upgraded SharePoint to service pack 2 yet but I do have the latest infrastructure updates on it.
I’ve seen a little information from searching around on Google but nothing specifically similar to this that has more of an answer then “reinstall office”. Does anyone have any insight into these errors and how I can go about solving them? Thanks!

I’m not clear from the 2 posts what should be deleted.
One says:
Deleted the registry hive \Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion underneath
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Microsoft\MasterAggregatorForIPP\OleDbHandlers\{E1D2BF40-A96B-11d1-9C6B-0000F875AC61}.
The other says:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Microsoft\MasterAggregatorForIPP\OleDbHandlers
{E1D2BF40-A96B-11d1-9C6B-0000F875AC61} System
Does that mean delete the key \{E1D2BF40-A96B-11d1-9C6B-0000F875AC61} or the values underneath it? And where does System come into play? I don’t see that in the registry on the PC’s I’ve checked.
I’m not sure how \Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion relates to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Microsoft\MasterAggregatorForIPP\OleDbHandlers
{E1D2BF40-A96B-11d1-9C6B-0000F875AC61} System
Thanks.

HT5022 I'm trying to add a "new client" to my wireless network using Airport Utility, but I can't find that option in the new version. I've downloaded all available updates of the OS and the utility.. Help!

I'm trying to add my HP wireless printer as a "new client" to my wireless network using Airport Utility, but I can't find that option in the new version. I've downloaded all available updates of the OS and the utility.. Help!

Why would you need to ADD a new Client. Unless the APE sytem is completely different then any other Wireless router the printer should get an IP address from the router. That is IF the printer is setup to get an IP from the LAN DHCP server.
Now you may want to make that IP it does get a Staticly assign IP address so it never changes, which will screw up printing if it does change. But i don't know if you can do that with APE routers.

How can i upgrade my iPhoto 7.1.5 to a newer version? the download 8.02 will not work as i need 8 and that isn't available on download on the site?

How can i upgrade my iPhoto 7.1.5 to a newer version? the download 8.02 will not work as i need 8 and that isn't available on download on the site?
Thanks x

You can upgrade to iPhoto '11 with OS X 10.8.5 by purchasing an iPhoto '11 DVD from Amazon, eBay or other source - or you can upgrade your OS to Mavericks for free if your system meets the requirements and then purchase the upgrade to iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x from the App store - in either case backup first in case of problems
