Graphic driver doesn't respond when running Firefox 4 RC1 and battery mode.

I unplugged AC adaptor from my laptop and started Firefox 4 RC1. Screen was freezed for some time and Windows restarted graphic driver every 2-4min. It was happened on random page (facebook, twitter, some news pages).
Windows 7 32-bit, ATI Mobility Radeon HD2400 (driver: 11.2 (02/15/2011)), Firefox 4 RC1 (clean installation).
It doesn't happened with Firefox 3.6 or with AC adaptor plugged in.
How to fix it?

Just some general comment
Is your battery getting flat ? or have you changed any of the powersaving etc options. Some laptops will make changes when in battery mode and even slow down the CPU etc.
Are you using different settings on firefox 3.6 and 4 ?
* What about your FlashPlayer settings especially the hardware acceleration.
* And what version of flash payer is in use on each computer <br /> check using http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html that tests using the version installed in the current browser
Presumably you have problems only on sites where you are using FlashPlayer, so it may be worth looking at [[Flash-based videos and sound do not play correctly]]. I have noticed whenever new versions of FlashPlayer are released some users will find problems, sometimes the video card drivers need updating.

Unable to interact with Flash content when running Firefox with restricted user

When running Firefox with limited Windows user on Windows XP the Flash elements are displayed, the content that is set to auto-play does so even, but the flash area doesn't receive any mouse input: e.g. when I right click in the area instead of the flash context menu I get the browser context menu as if the flash plug-in wasn't even there. The exact same page on the exact same computer but with Administrator user works as expected: can press buttons, interact with flash controls and the context menu upon right-click is of course the flash one. This behavior occurs even if I disable all add-ons.

Try uninstalling your sound card driver in Device Manager and reboot your PC.

When running firefox periodically it will use 99% of my cpu for no apparent reason.

As I said when running firefox it periodically uses 99% of my cpu and freezes the computer until it drops down below the 99% usage.

I'm on Windows 7, but a lot of things would apply to any system, it just that the system related stuff you may have to find out for yourself where it is.
Some posted recently and I saw they had Picassa, that's a lovely one it will index every picture on your harddrive even thumbnails and pictures in cache and temporary files. I got rid of that. Now for the things I had to take care of on this system.

The first part are allowed scheduled task, you need to know when then occur, after that is Windows indexing -- turn if off it is one of the worst offenders, it faster to just search your drives and searching has less impact on your system than useless indexing, and then some things in '''Firefox''' (article header says it may be out of date -- unlikely though
'''Firefox things''' to turn off media indexing, page refresh.

'''media.autoplay.enabled''' user set Boolean set to false in about:config
:'''browser.sessionstore.max_concurrent_tabs''' to 0 in about:config ''(sometimes set default of 3, which defeats whole purpose of seeting it to 0 as a replacement for the "bartab" extension)''
:(do not use the "Stop Autoplay" extension, which stops picture from showing)
Looks like I'm not stopping autorefresh though, might be related to my expectations of any change on a local drive to cause an immediate refresh but can't find such an option to refresh only local drive.
'''Problematic extensions'''
:http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions
Look carefully through the problematic extensions, avoid phone applications such as Skype which share your band width with other in order to function, only keep such applications up when needed. Do not install the Skype extension
Avoid third party toolbars and extensions to tie into other running applications. Don't install timers in Firefox, as standalone application would be better.

Dv2915nr cd/dvd drive doesn't recognize when disk in. drive doesnt show up in device manager.

dv2915nr cd/dvd drive doesn't recognize when disk in. drive doesnt show up in device manager.

Hi,
Here's one option you could try as it will give a good indication whether the problem is with Windows or a Hardware issue with the optical drive itself.
Create a bootable Ubuntu CD
The Ubuntu CD you create should run as you boot the notebook ( ie outside of Windows operating system ), so if this will not run, the problem is almost certainly a Hardware issue with the DVD drive
On another PC, follow the procedure on the link below to create a bootable Ubuntu CD and follow the steps in Part 3 to 'Try it' to see if this OS will run from the CD. The 'try it' option does not need to install on the Hard Drive, it just runs from the CD.
http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
Let me know if this will run.
Regards,
DP-K

If you go to Disk Utility, can you see the drive on the left hand side? If not, then the drive is dead. You'll have to buy a new drive.

Premiere doesn't respond when rendering.

My adobe premiere pro 5.5 doesn't respond when I'm rendering a video. It works fine, until it reaches around 86% when the tab comes up that it has stopped working, and windows is looking for a solution.
THis is very frustrating, especially after the video has been rendering after 2 hours.

Welcome to the forum, LotusS.
Please elaborate on what you mean by "render." Some people use "render" as synonymous with "export" or "encode," but in Premiere we distinguish between rendering and exporting/encode. Rendering is reserved for creating preview files for smoother playback within PPRO, whereas exporting/encoding covers writing a sequence out to an output clip.
If you're talking about rendering preview files, then the first question is whether that's even necessary. In Premiere Pro, you need to render only if playback is not smooth and fluid; if you're satisified with playback without rendering, then don't bother.
If rendering preview files is desirable, then to isolate the cause of the hang, I'd render the sequence in segments by setting in & out points. Since the process is hanging at 86%, you could start by rendering the first three-quarters. Assuming that succeeds, then do smaller segments of the last 25% until you find the spot where it hangs. Then examine that section for an asset or effect or transition that's causing problems.

My ipod touch 4th gen froze! blank white screen and doesn't respond when turned off, or connected to my laptop

my ipod touch 4th gen froze! only blank white screen and doesn't respond when turned off or connected to my laptop!

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Dreamweaver CS5 doesn't respond when connecting to server

I don't know what happened but last night I was working in DW and everything was running fine. I got up this morning to continue where I left off and when I try to connect to my site (local testing server), DW hangs and doesn't respond. I let it be for a bit but when I came back, it was still not responding. I shut it down and restarted it and found that its functionality was fine until I tried to connect locally to my site.
I created a page in PHP and everything worked ok. Then I created a testing site on my WAMP server for this new page. As soon as I tried to connect to this new testing server, DW hung and wouldn't respond.
As you may have guessed, this is a server issue.
I looked at my Wamp server and I couldn't find anything wrong with it. DW just seems to have developed issues with it on its own between last night and today. I don't know why Dreamweaver would all of a sudden take issue with my WAMP server on its own but it has and I don't know how to fix it aside from a complete re-install.
Can anybody lend guidance before I dive into this last step?
edit: I forgot to mention...when I restart DW I notice in my files list for my site, that DW created a new copy of my addme.php file as addme_alxr88pca.php. I don't know if that helps but I figured I should add that.

Hi,
these and similar events are the blame for it, that I prefer a program which works "outside" of the DW. My reason is: for each task in whatever area we work, we search for the experts, we don't charge a "jack of all trades".
So I use to upload my files and sometimes for the opposite way, for a necessary download from my server, by using filezilla. It simply looks easier for me to keep track of all operations precisely and generate or reflect easily the desired tree structure.
Above all, FileZilla has a feature (translation from my German FileZilla) called "compare file list". Here it's possible to use file size or modification time as a criterion. There is also the possibility to "hide identical files", so that only these files which you want to redact remain visible.
And even if it means you have to install a new program, I am convinced that there is an advantage. Here is the link to get it and where you can read informations about how it works:
http://filezilla-project.org/ and
http://wiki.filezilla-project.org/Tutorial#Using_the_site_manager
Of course, you also need all the access data to reach your server.

Firefox is already running but is not responding - Cannot run Firefox on multiple machines with in a network (parent.lock)

Environment - Single File Server & 6 workstations.
I have a single generic user account/profile and log on to all 6 workstations at the same time (1 user, 1 password, 6 workstations).
I need to run firefox on all the workstations with the same user and user profile.
However, as soon as one user opens firefox all the others get the message "Firefox is already running but is not responding" and can not open the browser. No other workstations can open Firefox. I can only run 1 instance of Firefox in this scenario. How can I run it on all 6 with a single user account?
I have been back to the server and deleted the parent.lock file but it is recreated again as soon as someone open a firefox browser and the problem starts al over again.
Please - How can I get a single user with a single profile to run firefox on 6 workstations simultaneously?
Thank You

hello timfarr, you cannot do that - many essential databases (like bookamrks, passwords etc.) in your profile are not designed to be accessed by different processes at the same time...
