I corrupted the firefox profile file using profile manager and firefox thinks it is still running and asks me to close but there is no instance of it running...I have tried several re-installs but cannot resolve the problem....

.........I have deleted the .ini file associated with the profile file and the profile file itself...have tried to locate the "lock" file but cannot find the file in the specified path on the support forum for this problem....I believe there is a file mounted in another directory somewhere that firefox is seeing....I would really like to be able to use firefox as the default browser on this new linux (ubuntu) install...it was working prior to my trying to import my profile from the windows partition.....

See this. <br />

  • When I start my computer, I get popup error msg that "Apple Sync Notifier" has stopped working.  I have tried several remedies suggested by those on the Apple (and Roxio) tech support. Nothing has worked. Trying to burn disc or puchased ITUNES.

    I have been trying to burn newly purchased (as well as last year purchases) ITunes to a disc.   I had burned some of these songs to a disc last year and all went well.   Now I have been getting this popup telling me that the AppleSync Notifier has stoped working & the corefoundation.dll needs to be re-installed.  Also that Windows will try to fix the problem.   Every time I try to burn the disc, the computer sends the disc back out and the screen tells me to put in a blank recordable disc.   I have tried 4 different new discs now and the same thing happens.
    I am running Windows Vista.
    Have been to the Roxio web site for help as well as Apple.
    Have tried many "fixes" such as:  updating latest version of Direct X from the Microsoft website;   Disabling startup items;   going to local disc C and into the Apple/Apple Appplication support and right-clicking on the SQLite3.dll and moving it tomobile support device window.   Nothing has worked.  What can I do to get some music recorder?   Should I buy a new cassette deck and record onto tape like I did 20 years ago?   This is a very important disc I am making as a gift & I need to get it done by this weekend.    Is there anyone that can offer good advice?

    love paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work right, thanks apple

  • I added a theme back ground & it took several icons away. Now my REFRESH icon is gone & I can't get it back. I customized my toolbar but there is no refresh on it. I have tried everything. Please help in simple terms. Thank you.

    I have windows 7. I uninstalled the theme background but it did not bring back my toolbar from before which had REFRESH on it.

    Did you revert to the Default theme (Tools > Add-ons > Themes) ?<br />

    If you have completed all Apple troubleshooting steps with no change, more than likely your iPhone has a hardware problem. call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

  • I downloaded mountain lion and then the new office suite (word, ppt, excel) but now when I try to display one of my ppt's it says 'ppt cannot open the file...the file may be corrupt, in use, not a type recognized by ppt etc.." how can I fix it?? HELP

    Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
    If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office.

  • Problem : Cannot resolve the collation conflict between ...

    Hi
    I want select a column from another database base on my current field on current database.
    here is my query :
    select ms.ServiceID, ms.ServiceName, ms.CoefficientFixedService,
    (select Services_Name from MpAdmisson..IAServices_Table where Services_DepartmentID=24 and Services_Name=ms.ServiceName) as N'MpServiceName'
    from MedicalServices ms
    join MedicalCategories mc on ms.MedicalCategorizationID=mc.MedicalCategorizationID
    join Zones z on mc.ZoneID=z.ZoneID
    where z.ZoneID=24
    but I'm facing this error :
    Cannot resolve the collation conflict between "Persian_100_CI_AI" and "Arabic_CI_AS" in the equal to operation.
    Also i changed collation of "MpAdmisson" db to "Persian_100_CI_AI" and even restart msSqlServer service, but i'm facing the same error!
    where is my problem and how to solve it ?
    thanks in advance
    http://www.codeproject.com/KB/codegen/DatabaseHelper.aspx

    although you changed the collation of the database it does not mean that all the objects changed their collation too automatically.
    So far you are correct.
    The change is only done when you change the data within the objects, thus recreating the table and moving data in / out or touching each and every value with doing something on the values themselves (the following will not work UPDATE (..) SET ServiceName
    = ServiceName, the optimizer is smart enough too see that as a noop).
    However, this is flat wrong. This is the story: each character column in a database has a collation tied to it. When you change the collation of a database, you change 1) the collation of the columns in the system tables. 2) The default collation. To change
    the collation on the individual columns, you need to alter the column:
    ALTER TABLE IAServices_Table
    ALTER COLUMN Services_Name <current data type> COLLATE Persian_100_CI_AI [NOT] NULL
    Unfortunately, this only works if the column is not indexed and has no constraints tied to it. Any indexes have to be dropped and recreated after the ALTER statement. If the column is a key column and there are referencing foreign keys, they also have to
    be dropped and recreated. Thus, this is quite a far-reaching operation. And it may not stop there - with some amount of bad luck, constraints may fail with the new collation.
    For this reason, this workaround suggested by Jens, may be your only option in the short term:
    If you cannot do this currently, you can still do the following and collate on a per query basis:
    select ms.ServiceID, ms.ServiceName, ms.CoefficientFixedService,
    (select Services_Name from MpAdmisson..IAServices_Table where Services_DepartmentID=24 and Services_Name=ms.ServiceName COLLATE Persian_100_AS_CI) as N'MpServiceName'
    from MedicalServices ms
    And this part of Jens's post is correct. To note though is that use of the COLLATE clause voids any index on ServiceName. (Since this index is sorted according the rules of Arabic, and not the rules of Farsi.)

    Try resetting the SMC Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support

    If that doesn't help you can try a cleaning disc, or a shot of compressed air but chances are good that your optical drive has failed. You can either replace it or buy an inexpensive external unit (but not Apple's as it won't work on macs with a built in drive working or not).

    You need to reinstall OS X:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
