I get notifications of changes for radiowmpcoregecko7.dll. It is indicated that it is from Firefox. What is this file for and why does it keep changing.

About once a week to two weeks I receive notification through my anti-virus that this file has been changed. It appears to be part of Firefox. What is it and what does it do?
Thank you.

  • Yahoo displays in line form other than the standard Yahoo screen, How do I change this and why does it keep changing on its own?

    I have Yahoo as my default search engine. When I enter through FireFox the display comes up as a line display instead of the standard Yahoo Screan with photos etc. I need to know what is causing this to happen and how to change it back? when Yahoo is accessed through other browsers this is not a problem. Any suggestions?

  • I changed a password to a frequesntly used site. Firefox has not asked me if I want to save this new password and I have to keep changing the saved one to the correct one. How do I get it to save the new password?

    I have websites I use for my employer that require a password. The employer requires these be changed periodically. Always before, if I changed the password, about the second or third time I tried to log in and changed the saved password to the correct one, Firefox would ask if I wanted to save the new password. It is not doing this now. How can I get it to save a new password? It keeps putting in the old one.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

  • Why does Apple keep changing the interface in iTunes?!

    I liked the interface in iTunes 10, but found that I liked the interface in iTunes 11 even better. It seemed that everything was organized a little better. But... now we are back to an interface like we had in iTunes 10. Do the developers think about what they are doing before doing it? or, do they just need something to do so they just change interfaces to keep busy? I just wish they would make up their mind on an interface and let it be. I understand changing an interface if it will make things better. This change doesn't do that. I feel like we have taken a step back. Can someone explain this change to me?

    There are two messages you might see. The one you allude to, "will not work with iPhone" is merely a warning that the accessory is not shielded against the electronic emissions of the iPhone, i.e. you may get a little static on the audio. You can ignore that error and use the accessory. The other error is a "will not charge" and that's because the iPhone 3G no longer draws power from the FireWire pins in the dock connector. Apple has been phasing out FW support - the ability to sync via FW was dropeed a couple of years ago. 3rd party manufacturers have known about this for some time, but seemingly chose to maximize profit by not changing their design (especially for car chargers, since the power input is 12 V, which FW can handle, but for USB the voltage must be stepped down to 5 V). There are dongles available to drop the voltage and move the power to the correct pins.

  • Fixed: Slow Snow Leopard. What was this file for?

    Hi,
    I just bought a new iMac on Monday. It's supposed to be the newest and best technology... blah blah blah blah blah.
    Anyhow, it worked great for a few days, and then last night it began slowing down to the point where nothing was functional. A simple reboot helped very little, and I became very frustrated.
    I ended up finding some guys blog about Macs, and he deleted this file to fix his Snow Leopard problems:
    System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.audio.coreaudiod.plist
    Having no other choice but to wait for an update from Apple, I deleted the same file. I rebooted my computer, and it was like magic. The computer is faster then ever, and very enjoyable to use. So, my question is: what is the world is that for for? It used like 1.40-1.80 GB of RAM...
    Thanks for the help!

    no, it doesn't. none of the items in /system/library/launchdaemons are automatically rebuilt on deletion. if you delete something from there it's gone for good. these are necessary system daemons and deleting them can make system inoperable or cripple it. I'm not quite sure what this one does. googling indicates that it is responsible for a number of audio functions like system sounds and keeping volume settings on restarts. I've seen a number of posts recommending deleting it as a possible workaround for some slowdown issues but I would not do that with this or any other system launch daemon. as is aid, this may cripple some system functions and the file will not be recreated by the system if you want it back. if you want to disable it as a troubleshooting step you can do it without deleting the file. run the following terminal command
    sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.audio.coreaudiod.plist
    this will make the daemon inactive without deleting the file. and it will remain inactive even on restarts. if you want to activate it change unload to load in the above command.

  • Why Does Apple Keep Changing the Charging Protocols?

    I bought an iPhone 3G yesterday, and after having a 1st-Gen iPhone for about 5 months, I'd have to say I'm not altogether impressed with the new one. Non-recessed headphone jack, check; faster downloads over 3G, check. The rest of it.. I dunno.
    The most irksome detail I've encountered so far is that something has changed in the -- what is it called, the docking mechanism at the bottom of the phone that connects to the dock -- that makes all my previous docks (and I have quite a few around the house) obsolete. Worse, this iPhone will not charge from the adapter I have in my car, the Dension ICE>Link which originally integrated all my iPod controls directly into my car stereo.
    When I got my first iPhone back in February, the first thing I noticed was that when I plugged it into an older "universal dock," I'd get an error message, "this accessory is not made to work with iPhone." I managed to work around it. I bought a new dock that is compatible, and I discovered that so long as I was using the iPhone as an iPod in my car, it would charge that way. So I wasn't losing battery charge if I listened to my iPhone/Pod in the car. That was good enough.
    Now, with 3G, first, I discover that the Universal dock that I purchased with the old iPhone generates the same stupid 'will not work with iPhone' message that the OLD iPhone generated with an older dock. So this iPhone 3G does not work with a dock that I purchased for the original iPhone, which did not work with the dock I had purchased for my iPods. Sheesh.
    But, again, it gets worse: now, when I slip the 3G unit into the cradle/adapter in my car, it will not charge ever, not even when I'm using the iPhone 3G as an iPod. The audio connects, I can still use the iPhone as an iPod and listen to it and control it through the car stereo, but I'm draining the battery when I do.
    So, from iPod, to iPhone, to iPhone 3G, it appears to me that Apple has changed something in the protocols for each new generation so that all the docks and accessories from the previous generation are no longer viable. Why are they doing that? What is the UPSIDE of this very obvious and irritating downside, other than the upside for Apple that gets to sell me ever more accessories.
    Are other iPhone 3G users encountering irritations like this? What sort of work around are there? Anything?
    The GPS and the faster data speeds of 3G are nice features, it's also nice to have a flush headphone mount (I can use this one with a bluetooth stereo headset transmitter). But there are other ways that this unit is just not integrating into the way want to use it, and I may be very tempted to go back to the original iPhone.
    Anybody want to chime in with their experience?
    Thanks,
    --PS

  • What is untitled.pages.-tef and why do I keep getting them?

    I've been collecting files with *.pages.-tef in iCloud. Mostly they are untiteld.pages-tef but I just got one with the name of a document I created. They will not open. If it is in an icloud folder (auto created) the space bar clicking on the folder reveals a file that is named list. I also have a accumulateion of files named untitled. These cannot be opned from my MAC or in the iWorks pages.

    Growl is a notification utility that, when configured, lets you know when people come online (MSN, Adium) or send email (although that is not working right now). Several applications can take advantage of it.
    If you have it installed, there should be a preference pane: look in system preferences. The main panel should display it at the bottom in a section marked Other (or alphabetically if you have view set that way).
    The website is here and I see that there is a note at the top, ''If Growl was installed without you knowing about it, please see this page for an explanation". That may answer some of your questions.

  • Why does iCal keep changing to colour of one of my calendars?

    For some reason, every time I open my iCal the colour of my "work" calendar is changed from Green to pink(one of the create your own colours). I keep changing it back to green and it keeps going back to pink. I am incredibly frustrated.
    Any suggestions?

    Okay,
    Kind of got a fix for this or at least it seems to have worked for me. *Knock on Wood*. It will take some time and patience.
    I right clicked on my "Work" calendar and exported it to the desktop. Then imported it as a new calendar under a different name "0 - Work". (It may import it as "Work 2")
    Now you have your original "Work" calendar, in the annoying pink colour, and a new "0 - Work" calendar.
    Change the colour of this new calendar to whatever you like. Delete the original "Work" calendar and then wait about 10 minutes. This seems to allow the iCloud and whatever else to finish its "Updating".
    Then rename "0 - Work" to just "Work". Again wait about 10 minutes. It's best not to sit there and watch as the updating processes will sometimes change it back to pink or bring back the original "Work" calendar before finally settling on your new changes.
    In the end, or at least for me, things are back to normal. I have left it open for about a half hour, turned it on and off and no pink has reemerged.
    Good luck!

  • What's a polymorphic terminal and why can't I change the colour of an LED?

    Hi,
    I've written a small vi to experiment with changing the
    colour of an LED from the front panel by the user. (See attached.)
    I've created a property node for the LED indicator and selected the 'Colors[4]' property.
    I've then selected the 0th element of the array using 'Index Array' and used this as the cluster type on 'Bundle By Name' but no names appear in the elements.
    When I then try to wire a colour box to the input of Bundle By Name I get a broken wire and the message: "This wire connects to a polymorphic terminal that cannot accept this data type".
    And yet when I hold the mouse over the wire from the output of index array so it's just looking at one element of the colors[4] array in the help window I'm told it's a cluster made up of two U32's. Individually these are the same data type as the output from the colour box.
    What's a polymorphic data type and what's the correct way to wire from the colour selection box to the Colors[4] property of the LED so the colour can be changed?
    Any help much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Dave.

    Dave,
    A couple of comments.
    As CC said, you need to use the plain bundle node.
    If you want to change the "ON" color, you need element 1, not zero.
    Property operations should only be done exacly once whenever something changes, not 10000 times/second. Use an event structure.
    See attached (LabVIEW 7.0). Modify as needed.

  • Why does Siri keep changing identities

    I have two iPhones 4S both using the same iCloud account, my daughters and mine.  Now here is the strange thing.  Everyone once in a while with no definite regularity, Siri decides I am my daughter and my Daughter is myself.  now the phones have not changed, just the Siri info.
    Why is this happening, and how do i fix it?
    Thanks

    Verizon customers need to do the following.  It solved my wife and my issue of having our siri id being pushed to multiple devices.
    Step 1: Dial *228 from your iPhone.
    Step 2: When prompted, select 2 to update your roaming capabilities.
    (This process may take up to 2 minutes.)
    Step 3: When complete, you will hear a confirmation message.
    Step 4: In about a minute, you will also see an alert that your service update is complete.
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/calls/#section_4'
    Hope this helps.  We have one Apple ID for all of us.  Siri has stopped getting confused, and we can share our photostream, call each other, contacts in the cloud, Ical in the cloud. etc.

  • What is "exited?" and why does it keep asking for access to Facebook?

    Has anyone else had this appear?
    I'm running the iOS 7 beta and every time I use the Facebook app or Safari I get about 4 alerts on screen with the phrase:
    "exited?" is requesting access to your contacts and basic information on Facebook
    I have no idea what it is so I keep disallowing it... anyone got any clues? Searching the web yields no results

    This isn't the place for iOS 7 talk yet.

  • Why does calendar keep changing dates and times on icloud

    My calendar keeps randomly changing dates and times when using icloud and it is doing my head in.
    Is there a simple way of rectifying this or do I have to get rid of icloud altogether (to save my sanity?)

    If this is an iCloud calendar, you might want to check your time zone and time zone support settings.  Go to icloud.com, sign into your iCloud account, click your name at the top and choose Account Settings, click Time Zone and be sure it shows the correct time zone and that you have selected a city near you.  Then open your calendar on icloud.com, click the gear-shaped icon on the bottom left and choose Preferences, click the Advanced tab and make sure you have not checked time zone support at the top.
    On your iOS devices, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Time Zone Support (in the Calendars section) and make sure this is set to Off.

  • What is this file for

    in my home directory thera are a lot of file which are called .serverauth.xxx  like .serverauth.5549,.serverauth.5317  etc.
    what are their aims? if i delete them, it occurs any problem?

    Hmmm...I've been annoyed by them for a while now (months perhaps?), but always just assumed it was normal behavior.  I knew they were X-related and I always just deleted them before running <code>startx</code>, but perhaps it would be a good thing for a bug report.
