Having trouble with making new internet tabs and windows

When I open a new tab or new window, some small blank black windows appear and disappear right away. I have tried running virus scans, uninstalling unnecessary programs and deleting memory but they still pop up. Also after the blank windows disappear, there is a "not responding" after the blank windows disappear, for about 10 seconds and then resumes normal

Well first, the version of Firefox you are running is EXTREMELY old and insecure. Please update to Firefox 11 right away. [[Updating Firefox]] can help you with that.
After doing that, if you are still having issues, Try to start Firefox in [[Safe mode|Safe mode]]. This mode disables all extensions, user customizations, hardware acceleration, etc. temporarily for diagnostic and troubleshooting. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then this is likely an add-on issue. Restart Firefox in normal mode, then type "About:addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions one by one, restarting Firefox between each one, until you find the trouble maker. Once you do, you can disable that add-on and report the issue to that add-on's developer.
A few other basic trouble shooting things you can try is this:
Run all Windows Updates, install all needed service packs, etc.
Update your graphics driver (Firefox uses your graphics card for some rendering, and an out of date graphics card driver can cause problems. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-upgrade-my-graphics-drivers].
Update all your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): [http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/ http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/].
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]. This helps check that there are no viruses on your computer causing issues. You can uninstall this program after you clean off any infections.

  • Having trouble with the "New Project" tab on the main menu.

    Whenever I open garageband, the new project window doesn't display all of the icons. It only shows the Voice, Podcast, and Movie icons and none of these show the picture anymore. It used to start up fine and this just started happening a couple days ago. Has anyone else had this problem?

    You can't do it in one step. Add to iTunes first, Once the tracks are in iTunes you may convert to a different format.

  • Anyone having trouble with the new update for 2010 mac book air 10.8.2?

    Anyone having trouble with the new update for 2010 mac book air 10.8.2 ? My 2010 Macbook Air has crashed 15times since the 10.8.2 update. Have only once since owning it.

    Turned out the hardware was bad.  Apple exchanged it for a new Mac Air and the new trackpad works great.  Thank goodness it was a defect.  If the trackpads all worked like that I would have been bummed.

  • Having trouble with iCloud Photo Stream on a Windows Vista 64 machine.

    Having trouble with iCloud Photo Stream on a Windows Vista 64 machine.  Can you tell me why Photo Stream will not stay enabled.  When I reboot, it will disable not to mention that it will not get any pushed photos.  Is there a 64 bit version?

    Hello tw_mama,
    I was looking into the issue you are experiencing and found an article that may shed some light on the subject. It's called iCloud: Account troubleshooting found here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3988
    This section in particluar:
    I get an "Unsupported Apple ID" error when I try to sign in to iCloud from my iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
    Depending on how you created your Apple ID, you may not be able to create an iCloud account with your current Apple ID. If your Apple ID works in the iTunes Store, App Store, Game Center, FaceTime, or with other Apple Services, your Apple ID should work for iCloud. Also, if you created your Apple ID while you applied for a job at jobs.apple.com, your Apple ID should work for iCloud. If you cannot use your Apple ID with any Apple Services, it might not be compatible with iCloud. Contact iCloud Support for assistance.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • I'm having trouble with a multi channel acquisition and download with PXI-5922

    I am having trouble with getting data out from both channels of a PXI-5922.  My software seems to be working, but when I do the fetch there is no data for the second channel.  I am using the same format for all of the channelList inputs (0,1).  I've checked the instrument handles and anything else I can think of, but this is my first time trying to collect data on 2 channels of a digitizer.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi schliepe,
    Try checking your code against an existing example. The
    Developer Zone Example: Independent
    Channel Configuration with NI-SCOPE is a good VI to reference. Also note
    that there are several examples that come with the NI-SCOPE driver. They can be
    found in Windows by going to Start »
    Programs » National Instruments » NI SCOPE » Examples. Additionally, if you find that the examples are not working either, verify that both channels are functioning by running the
    NI-SCOPE Soft Front Panel.
    Please post back if you have any questions. Have a great
    day!

  • I`m having trouble with my new advanced system the mac os X 10.0.3

    Hello everybody...
    I need Help, I would appreciated anything anybody could do to help me...
    I`m trying to install the new software the mac os X 10.0.3 and having trouble transfering all my files form the mac os 9.2.2 classic to my new system...Do i have to erase my hard drive to do a clean install???? Could I transfer my files to my home`s computer, instead of buying a portable smartdisk hard drive of 100 Gb, and then so i could transfer my fiels back to my mac without no trouble ????
    I Hope anyone could answer to my post as soon as possible, Thanks

    Hi, John. If you weren't having trouble with Mac OS 10.0.3, it would be a major surprise. OS X 10.0.x and 10.1.x were unusable beta versions and never should have been released, in the view of most people who ever tried to run them. It would be a severe trial of your patience and a waste of your time to install 10.0.3 on your Mac.
    If you want to run OS X, buy OS X 10.2.x (Jaguar), 10.3.x (Panther) or the current version, 10.4 (Tiger). All are available at reasonable prices from AppleRescue. Tiger is also available from any Apple retailer. Carefully read the system requirements for whichever version you prefer, and be sure your computer meets them before buying. If your Powerbook only has a 10GB hard drive, install a larger one (at least 40GB is sensible, since the cost per gigabyte of smaller drives is now exorbitant compared with larger units) before bothering to install OS X.
    It would be most advisable to copy everything on your current hard drive to an external FireWire hard drive, then reformat and erase the internal drive before installing OS X on it. Doing so insures that your data is all safe and that your internal drive is in tip-top condition when the new OS is installed. After performing the installation, you can copy the contents of the external drive back onto the internal drive. The external drive will then be available as backup space for the entire contents of the internal drive, including OS X, all your applications, and all your data.
    While OS 9 is still installed on your hard drive, check to make sure your Powerbook's firmware is up to date. It will need to be brought up to date while running OS 9, before you install OS X 10.2 or higher. Here is the updater for your 500MHz Tibook:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75132
    If the firmware has already been updated, running the updater again will tell you so and will do no harm.

  • Is anyone having difficulties with the new yahoo mail and mac 10.8.5?

    I am using an older intel based imac desktop...it is updated to 10.8.5    I use Safari to browse.   I use Yahoo for my email.  I know...don't say it.  Please.  LOL
    Anyway, it seems that Yahoo has changed their email system (again) and I am having all types of difficulties.  For starters it keeps asking to I want to expand or collapse all.  The icon or whatever it is called these days stays right there on my inbox and blocks me from getting to the email that is beneath it.   When I try to forward and delete the sender's name, it deletes the entire email.  Is anyone else having these difficulties? 
    Thank you
    Paul

    As a general rule of thumb, I never install updates until I read its info and I am having problems with my current software.  I hide the updates until I need them.  Usually this happens when I update or upgrade my os.  I don't fix what ain't broken is my golden rule.
    It is possible that you need to update or upgrade Quark in order for your newer printer driver to work.  First I would try the following....
    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer.
    Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select Disk Utility.
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
    Click Repair Disk.
    Restart your computer when done.
    Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 and restart your computer.
    If your printer does not work afterwards, update or upgrade Quark.  If that does not work, contact the printer manufacturer.

  • I'm having trouble with the sync all feature and i'm not sure what to do about it

    i'm using Lr 5.3 on a windows 8.1 and a really fast laptop "can render movies in after effect in minutes"
    the problem i'm having is when i click the sync all button and the top loading bar moves like everybody, only the pictures viewed in my bottom slider will change even if i leave it for hours and this happen with big and small number of pictures so i tried reinstalling it and that didn't work
    i do a lot of timelapses and i thought maybe if i export the video they will show with the edited settings and that didn't happen and it showed the pictures that i havent moved to view blured, like the same blue when you move fast between raw pictures
    so i t tried exporting them and that worked fine but takes ages, the pictures still didn't change in the viewer but all the exported pictures did and thats not helping me in my job !
    FIND ME A SOLUTION please cause i'm dealing with 500-1000 picture here and i need to move the slider every 20 sec or so every picture is changed and this takes time and effort  guys !

    It could be overheating..........thing is ....i never realy though ibooks got that hot....the ibook does not even have a cooling fan...at least my blueberry 300mhz doesn't.
    I would have to say sounds more like your hard drive may be starting to fail you.
