At Start up on OS Lion 10.7 it opens a lot of program windows How can I stop this happening?

Not sure what your question has to do with the AirPort Express, AirPort Extreme, or Time Capsule.
But, to try to help....
Choose Shut Down on your Mac from the Apple icon
Remove the check mark from the box
Click Shut Down
e
For any additional questions.....please post in the correct Mac OS X v10.7 Lion support area.

My ipod Touch keeps on crashing. Started when using Echofon/FB, but now does it on email, apps, games, Google etc. How do I stop this happening? Thanks

Try here:
iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
Also try:
- Resetting the iPod. nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restoring the iPod from backup
- Restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

Whenever I click the "home" button, my homepage appears but a Firefox start page also opens in a new tab. How can I stop this?

This problem began only after I upgraded to the latest version of Firefox.

Hi Doug,
Sorry about that. It might be that '''both''' your homepage and the Firefox Start page are set as your homepage.
Here's how to reset your homepage:
# Open your homepage and close any other tabs
# Click the [[Image:New Fx Menu]] menu button and click ''Preferences''
# In the Preferences Window click ''General''
# Click the ''Use Current Pages'' button
Hopefully this will fix things. Let us know if it works!
Best,

Every single website, or link within a website page is being added to my location bar/address bar drop down menu. How can I stop this? This just started happening.

Every single website url address, or url address within a website page is being added to my location bar/address bar drop down menu.
I don't want everything added or saved in the location bar. Only urls that I used a lot used to be saved there but now every single url (and url within a url)I visit is being added to it.

I'm sure it's a simple browser setting but I've checked and nothing gives an option to control this.
Firefox 3.0.17
Windows XP
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.17) Gecko/2009122116 Firefox/3.0.17

A possibility is to open the links via the right-click context menu or a middle-click in a new tab to make sure that Firefox sees them as regular links.

HT1725 Everytime I plug my phone into to sync, Itunes starts downloading the same rented movie over and over. I go in and delte it from my library but it does it again. How can I stop this from happening?

The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

I installed 4Sync on my computer, and it resets my browser constantly. Even when I set my browser back to FireFox Start Page it just switches it back the next time I open a browser. How can I stop this please??

I installed 4Sync when I was trying to find a download for a song and it has hijacked my browser completely. It always tries to set my default home page back to the 4Sync Homepage, but I do not want this. I even change it back and save the settings, but it just comes back and does it again in a few clicks. I feel like it has completely taken over Firefox and that it will always be my start page now, instead of the Firefox Google search page I normally use. I need to stop this because it is frustrating me. There is no new plugins or extensions installed on my browser, I just don't get it. Any answers would be greatly appreciated!!

Same issue for me, no settings or options config changes this
I also tried a roll back to 3.16 and the problem is there too now, so its something in the general mozilla files
dont fancy a full uninstall and delete of anything mozilla, but i wont be using this if it continues

Firefox Start now has autofill on the search. How can I stop this?

Firefox Start, Google search used to have no autofill for searches When I type in a search I do not want to see suggestions for my search. This is extremely distracting. This is the only reason I use Firefox Start. Google will not let you opt out of the autofill for searches. How can I make this stop in Firefox?!?

this is a google problem(for others is awesome fuction)
to deactivated do the follow:
type in the address bar ''' http://www.google.com/preferences
then find ''' Google Instant ''' session
then click ''' Do not use google instant'''
do not forget to save preferences, click the button down-right in the same page.

I just downloaded the latest software OS X on my mac book pro, now whenever I start my computer I have to wait for windows mac to open up. The open at login is not even checked. How can I stop this from happening?

I have a Mac Book Pro and downloaded the latest software OS X. Now whenever I start my computer, I have to wait for Windows Mac to do its thing. I checked and the "open at login" option is not checked. How can I turn this feature off? It's driving me nuts!!

All fixed Barry. When I went to restart my computer, the question was right there. Do you want to open Windows when opening. NOPE!!
I tried it a few times and thank goodness it worked. Thank you for your help today.
Best,

When I click on the firefox icon it doesn't start unless I then try and open something else - at which point it starts after the other program -how can I stop this?

When I try and open firefox -either from the start menu or desktop shortcut -it doesn't open unless I open another program first. Eg I click firefox and then say 'word' and then 'word' will open followed by firefox- not only is it a bit irritating but also means I get distracted(!) as I usually chose solitaire because it opens quickly.
Doesn't happen with other programs ...
Wouldn't open at all today until a restart - before it would restart I got an error that said firefox wasn't responding - but possibly that isn't connected as computer wasn't shut down properly the day before.

This is because the regular central Nightly channel builds is only the desktop version. The version on Nightly development channel is at 21.0a1 now actually.
You need a build that has Metro support.
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-elm/
Many users state they cannot get Metro version to work on 32-bit Windows anyways.
There is this running thread at mozillaZine about the Metro builds. http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2304983

HT1338 After installing mountain lion, my macbook pro (2010ish) crashes every ten minutes. How can I fix this?

Title pretty much says it all. I installed Moutain Lion today and every ten minutes or so no matter what I'm doing my computer freezes up (iTunes always first) and then the entire computer freezes. What can I do to stop this?
I always have to hold down the power button to reboot, nothing else works to make it unfreeze.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

I upgrade firefox from 7 to 8 and now when i start firefox everytime it opens "getting start with firefox" page, in options i select the option 'show a blank page" how can i resolve this issue?

i upgrade firefox from version 7 to version 8, now when i start firefox everytime it open self the "getting start with firefox" website, in the options on firefox i select the 'show a blank page' but its not working. i am using firefox on windows XP- SP2.

Try restarting Firefox, the one time page(s) after starting a new release should disappear. Actually this last time with 8.0 they did not come up for me.
If that doesn't work then bring up '''about:config''' and place the url of the page into the filter. Right-click on anything that comes up and use "Reset".

FIREFOIX CHECKS EXTENSIONS EVERY TIME I START FIREFOX. HOW CAN I STOP THIS.

I DON'T WANT TO RESET FIREFOX. I DID THIS ONCE ALREADY AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET FIREFOX RUNNING AS IT WAS BEFORE I DID IT. IT NOW STARTS VERY SLOWLY AND CHECKS EXTENSIONS. CAN I REVERT TO VERSION 25. OPERATING SYSTEM WIN 7 HOME PREMIUM 64 BIT

It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the extensions.* files (e.g. extensions.json, extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Profiles
New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
If you see disabled or not compatible extensions in "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left end of the Search Bar to check if there is a compatibility update available.
If this hasn't helped then also delete the addons.json and addons.sqlite file.
You can check for problems with preferences and delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value.

Every time i start photoshop elements 12 it asks for my country. How can I stop this?

Every time PE12 starts up it asks for my country. I have uninstalled and re-installed several times PE12 on my Windows 7 desktop. This is a PITA.

On this page at http://www.nectar.com/collect/toolbar/faq.points there are uninstall instructions (12th from the top).
You should also be able to find it by clicking the orange Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Extensions. You should be able to remove it from there if uninstalling it doesn't work.
