I cannot quit the icon for mail. It stays on and because of that, I cannot shut down the computer?
I cannot quit mail, the icon stays on and if I try to shut down the computer, the window appears and tell me to quit mail first and then shut down the computer. How do I get to quit the mail?
Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu and shut Mail down from there.

iBooks updated to 3.2 on iPhone 5. Now I have a red 1 indicator by the word purchased. But it doesn't do anything. I've shut down the phone and restarted to no avail. Any suggestions?
I am having a similar problem. Running Xp.
Latest revision of firefox.
After using firefox for a while if I exit, parent.lock is locked and i have to reboot to reload firefox.
I have killed all firefox applications from task manager (usually there are none). and I have tried 3 different "file unlock" programs including unlocker to no avail.
I also recently installed a program that shows -all- open files, and parent.lock is not listed, and thus not closable/unlockable from there. -
each time i try syncing my ipod with itunes, it freezes itunes and i end up having to shut down my computer. This started happening after the latest download and my latest purchase. The latest purchase doesn't show up on my iPod and itunes freezes at synching step 2 on 2. Any suggestions?
You should Reset your iPod, by
1. Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 Secs till the Apple Logo comes ON.
2. Disconnect the sync cable.
3. Check the iPod Welcome screen, select language, go to menu (if you are lucky, your music are still on the iPod.)
if your iPod doesn't show the Welcome screen, bring it to Apple Store.
If the above is okay, (can see Menu but no Music)
4. Close iTunes and Reboot your PC.
5. Start iTunes
6. Connect the iPod to the Sync cable.
7. if iTunes ask to Restore, please do so.
8. Sync your iPod. ( I would advise you to disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus program when doing this.)
Good Luck. -

It's not good to shut off the power forcibly, right? (I dun know what else I can do...)Hi Min! I'm having exactly the same issue - have been putting up with it now for months but have finally had enough! Every single time i eject either my iphone, ipad or ipod nano, itunes freezes up, the computer becomes unresponsive. Usually i can use the mouse to highlight icons but the system doesn't respond, the keyboard doesn't work and I have to do a hard reset.

Command-Option-Escape does the same as

It opens a floating box that lists current major Applications and their status (e.g., Not responding) and allows you to force quit any single Application or re-launch the Finder. -
The new firefox twitter app (mini tab on left of page) is great - except it disappears every time I shut down the computer and I have to remove and then reinstall it every day!?? It won't appear on the page until I do. I am working on an iMac - if that is causing the problem ...? Thanks.
Eustace, thank you so much for writing back. I will try what you suggested!!
thx for your reply - apparently when I went to the Apple store a long time ago, they restore maybe photos and itunes etc from my external hard drive (passport). I guess at that time they reinstalled an earlier operating system than my macbook came with and that somehow corrupted FileVault. apparently there was no sparse bundle (whatever that is) for my old admin account and they said that ever since the install of the older OS that it was actually NEVER backing up anything in my admin account.
Then, I bought Time Capsule and starting backing up to that instead. I started having problems with it being slow etc and then StartUp Disk full errors and didn't know what to do, so I "Restored" from Time Capsule and that's when I lost everything in my Admin account and was locked out when I tried to log in - it said File Vault error ..."
anyway - that's THAT sad story. I was told to create a new admin account and I've basically been trying to start over - even though I have a partial save of my computer in Crash Plan and I DO see a sparse bundle listed in there, but I just don't know enough about computers to know if it's something I can get back or if I am just totally doomed.
I'm afraid to reinstall anything because if there is even a remote shot that the other files are still floating around in my computer, I feel like that chance will be shot forever. I need to hire McGee from NCIS, I just KNOW he could get those files back for me!!! -
I just updated my iPhone 4s to IOS 7 and now all my icons for apps I had previously downloaded B4 the upgrade dont show on my home screen,does anyone know what happen and how I can get the icons back on my screen??
Apps are in iTunes, are not part of the backup and when you updated the phone, you need to sync that content back.

Video Download Helper is an add-on that I frequently use. It used to have an icon right next to the home icon beside the URL line. It is no longer there. It disappeared after Firefox prompted me to update.
I believe that the add-on is still available to use by Firefox because it has a drop-down embedded in the "tools" drop-down in Firefox.
I have attempted to reload Video Download Helper, but to no avail.
Thanks for your help!Try this:

You may need to manually add the icon to your toolbar. -

I can not get into itunes on my computer. I click on the icon but then nothing happens.
Is this problem with Windows 7 on a non-Apple machine, or with a Mac? Mac OS X 10.6 can't run on a non-Apple machine, but Windows can run on a Mac machine with virtualization.

Can you answer another question. Cant send out mail from Mail only receive and read mail, Could this be something to do with my set-up as think Husband may have fiddles with some options not knowing what he was doing?
Should I de install Mail and re install Mail as think settings may have been changed by accident, would that ensure mail works -
When I have multiple windows I will click on a site and an computerized voice will tell me what the website is. It is as if everything I am doing is getting a voice over from Firefox. I want to disable that aspect without it causing any problems when I actually do need sound like watching shows on TV. Everytime I put the cursor on anything it will tell me what I am doing which I don't need.
Hi elamothe! It sounds like you just have VoiceOver turned on for your Mac. You can find VoiceOver by going to ''System Preferences->Universal Access->Seeing'' on your Mac, not in Firefox. This will allow you to disable VoiceOver.
CMD + F5 will toggle the setting as well.
Hopefully this helps! -
Hello,
I recently tried downloading the IOS8 to my iPod 5th generation and when it was almost done the computer said there was an error. Right after that, the iPod shut down completely and now it's on recovery mode. I plugged it in and it said that I had to restore it and update it so I could use it again but it doesn't let me. What can I do? I even did a backup before the update.
I really need help.What happens when you connect to computer and restore via iTunes?
Without knowing that:
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.
