I have a 64 bit windows computer running Windows 7. For the past few months Firefox has been crashing on opening - occasionally opening on my husband's profile but not mine. I am now using IE9 running as administrator but would prefer to use Firefox.
I can not adjust any of the settings, plugins etc as I can not open the program at all. After the first attempt I have go to the task manager and stop firefox.exe. Then on my next opening attempt I get the error messages again. I have sent off numerous crash reports to Mozilla.

AustraliaThat looks like a problem with a component of your Nvidia display driver: [@ @0x0 | nvd3dum.dll@0x3a7434 ]<br />
I'm not sure how to fix this as an internet search on this file doesn't give any real solutions.
First make sure that you have the latest drivers for your graphics display card.<br />
If it started after an update of those drivers the see if you can role back to the previous version of the drivers. -

4 o f 4 3 / 7 / 2 0 1 1 7 : 4 5 P MHi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand that you cannot print wirelessly with your HP Photosmart Premium c310 on Mac OS X 10.9. I am happy to look into this connection issue for you! I am not sure which support pages you have been to, but here are some that I would suggest going through: 'Printer Offline' or 'Printer Not Responding' Message (OS X).Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection. Tips for troubleshooting wireless connection issues
The following tips can help you troubleshoot and avoid wireless connectivity issues. You can try these tips separately or in combination to get a successful wireless signal. Move the printer and the computer closer to the router, but no closer than 6 ft (1.8 m). Wireless signals can be weaker at greater distances between the printer and the router.If you are experiencing an intermittent wireless connection, try restarting your router. Consult your router manufacturer, Internet service provider, or network administrator for instructions on how to restart the router.Remove any metal objects between the printer, the computer, and the router. Objects such as refrigerators, microwaves, or metal bookcases can interfere with wireless transmission.Move any device that emits radio signals, such as microwaves and cordless telephones, farther away from the printer. Such devices can interfere with wireless signals. Are you able to print to the printer with any other wireless devices? Hope this information is helpful, and hope to hear from you soon! “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.” -
Can't seem to finish a movie on AppleTV. It just stops in the middle of movie and returns to menu. Try to check for rentals under settings like it says to when we try and download movie again and all I get is a spinning wheel. At least the second this has happened in the middle of a movie. Beginning to think AppleTV is junk!

I downloaded 4 songs at the same time. The first and the last songs in the list play fine. If I try to play the second or third I get the message that I need to authorise this computer. I enter my id and password and it will say I've already authorised 2 out of my 5 computers (I don't know what other one I've authorised) then it will just start playing the last song out of those four.
Delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country.

Safari and Firefox spinning beachball of death––HELP I can't use the net
Today, 3/30, a new problem surfaced. Nearly every time I click on any link or go to any website, I get the spinning beachball of death. After 1 to 5 minutes, it stops and the page appears. When I go to the next page or link, it starts again. I have a Mac Pro 2008, Leopard which has been running just fine for months. No recent changes.
It does not occur on the other macs on my home network.
It happens with Safari and Firefox.
It happens with ethernet or wifi connection.
I have repaired permissions, run a full tech tools pro diagnostic, and of course I have rebooted several times. Nothing changes.
This makes my computer totally unusable for internet. Any ideas? (Obviously I am writing this post on another computer.)You are not the only one I have the same issue. Sorry this post is'nt to but to let you know others are having the same issue my Imac works great but my LT is worthless

On a Windows 7 computer I installed Firefox 9.0.1 and in my edit menu I have NO Preferences at the bottom, so there is no way to adjust any settings The edit menu opens up and I have undo, redo, cut, copy, paste,delete,select all, find....but NO Preferences at the bottom. This is a new laptop and nothing like skype is installed. The Firefox install is new today 1/6/12
Hi bruce,
What are you actually looking for? On Windows 7 your options will be under ''Tools > Options''. If you have the ''Firefox'' menu, you can hit ''Alt'' to temporarily enable the menu bar.
Your System details say Linux. Your say you are on Windows 7 though, correct? -
How do I not sync notes with my email? I have a business email on my iphone as well as my husbands iphone. Now all of my notes are on his phone, and all of his notes he previously has on his iphone are gone. We have never adjusted any settings or hooked it up to itunes, I only added the shared email account to his phone. Help???
Hi StoneLeadyFarms,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like notes on your devices may have synced when the email account was added, as described here:
iOS: Syncing Notes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4191
Notes are associated with an IMAP email account or iCloud account. To sync Notes, enable Notes for each account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars or Settings > iCloud.
You can stop syncing notes by tapping Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars or Settings > iCloud, tapping the email address that you added, and switching Notes to the off position.
Additionally, if your husband has backed up his iPhone to iTunes or iCloud, the steps in this article can help with recovering the lost notes from his device:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Can't import any images into iPhoto
Hello,
I am on my honeymoon and trying to offload pictures from my camera but have found that I can not import any pictures into iPhoto. I am unable to import any file, not just the ones on my camera. I have tried jpgs, gifs, and pngs from various sources and none of them import.
So far I have tried holding down option and creating a new library, deleting the plists, rebooting, and reapplying the latest iPhoto update. Does anyone else have suggestions for me to try?Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. -
Help! Upload 8.1 on my iPad 2 and now I can't get any wifi nor can I reset any settings. When I try to go on my iCloud it is all greyed out and no longer recognizes my password.
I also can't turn off "Find my iPad" on iTunes in order to do a restore.Try a reset first. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen. It takes about 10 seconds. After the iPad restarts, see if you can get into your settings.

Since upgrade to Iphone ios6 (4S), I can not import any videos to iPhoto or Image Capture
Hi there. I have had numberous problems with my upgrade to IOS6, particularly with the Camera/Photos. Two big ones: The camera does not orient itself properly when taking horizontal photos. You take a horizontal photo and it never rotates properly. So I have to go into Photo Shop and rotate each one manually. Sometimes it does not recognize horizontal from vertial when taking as well.
Also, I can not download ANY videos to iphoto or via Image Capture. The error I get for every video (both new videos shot after upgrade and those that date back to before the upgrade): Import Error An error occured while importing. The item ZZZZ.MOV was not imported.
I have all my software updates on both my phone and computer.
Any suggestions?I would try restarting you Mac if you haven't already. If you still can't get either iPhoto or Image Capture to work, you could try something else, like PhotoSync or PhoneView.

HotSynch issues: can't change any settings in User Accounts, can't rename or delete, can't sync!
Hello, I am running Windows XP Pro Version 5.1.2600. My wife and I both have Palm Treo 700p smartphones running Palm OS 5.2H.
Her phone has been having continual issues with some third-party software. Each time we would attempt to sync her phone after installation we would get the same error message:
HotSync Exchange synchronization failed
HotSync Error: Unknown error. (FE00)
We have tried to contact the software developer for the third-party application with no luck. They simply insist that there is nothing wrong with their software. Mind you, the phone would always sync with no issues before we installed the third-party software, but that's neither here nor there. Point being her phone would not sync no matter what I tried.
I searched the troubleshooting articles for HotSync issues and found that the only solution that might help would be to update our Palm Desktop from version 4.2 to 6.2. After installing the new Palm Desktop I was able to sync my 700p. However, when I attempted to sync my wife's 700p it still did not work. When I tried to access the HotSync log on the desktop it would only show the log for my phone. Her name would show up in the list of users, but once I tried to select it my name would appear in the window. When I attempt to open the "User Accounts" window in the HotSync Manager the application freezes and I must shut it down. I am unable to delete or rename the User accounts.
Now we are stuck not being able to sync her phone and not being able to fix the issue. She has a lot of files on her phone which she spent a lot of time working on, hundreds of hours, to get them where she needs them. Our concern is that in the process of fixing the HotSync issue she'll lose her work. We need a solution. Any assistance you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam
Post relates to: Treo 700p (Verizon)
Post relates to: Treo 700p (Verizon)Versamail is a email application on the device. As for the backup folder you may have renamed it follow these steps (You may not need to hard reset the device. You can skip that part)
To fix this what we need to do is hard reset your device. The instructions to do that is here http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/887_en.html this tells you how to do all types of resets. Also, what we need to do is rename your backup folder. What this folder is, it hold all your programs from the last time you synced your PC. On your computer go here
Palm Desktop 4.2 and below
My Computer--> C drive --> Program files --> Palm/PalmOne--> your hotsync username
Palm Desktop 6.2.2
My Documents/Documents --> Palm OS Desktop --> your hotsync username
Right click on your backup folder and rename it to "backupOld". Resync your device to the same user name and you will get all your contacts, calendar, tasks, and memos.
You can install the programs again but make sure they are compatible with the device. Also try one program again and wait 24 hours to see if the same thing happens again. This way you know what program is causing the issue. -
I am trying to open iTunes on my Windows 7 PC and am getting the following message...the itunes library can not be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder. Any ideas?
Let's try this first. Hold down the Shift key while you try to launch iTunes. You should eventually see the following dialog:
Click "Choose library". Browse to inside the following location (depending on what operating system you're running):
Operating System
Default location of iTunes library
Microsoft Windows XP
\Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Microsoft Windows Vista
\Users\[your username]\Music\iTunes\
Microsoft Windows 7
\Users\[your username]\My Music\iTunes\
... and open the iTunes library you find in there.
