I have had FF 6.0.2 crash my PC (blackscreen, pc is frozen and unresponsive, requires hard reset) several times in the last two weeks. Ironically, it did this very thing while I was registering in order to ask about this.
I also have had FF close and reopen with the little pop-up about restoring or starting a new session.
I have been using FF since v1, and never have I experienced this issue.
I do not know what other information to provide, but if anyone is willing to help, I will provide any necessary details.
Having disabled hardware acceleration (Tools>Options>Advanced>Browsing), I have not had a crash although it has only been two days.
Hopefully this fixes it and it will work for the others who are having the problem.

My apple id keeps getting reset. I have had to change my password at least 6 times in the last two weeks and it has now reset again
You probably are mixing up your password with passwords from other accounts. If i were you i would write down your password somewhere easy to acess and make it very hard to guess if you ever reset it.

The events of the last month, with the photographs have suddenly disappeared from the iPhoto Library. I have opened these successfully several times during the last few weeks, but on opening them yesterday they weren't there any longer. No idea how this could have happened! Is it possible to retrieve ???
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
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. .

Within the last hour, I noticed that my older MacBook Pro, while I was using iTunes, lost contrast on the screen. I am sorry, but I did not take exact notes on this event. Around the same time, I did do a back up, uploaded Apple software, etc.
I'm using two MacPros simultaniously, the old one for iTunes, and the new one for the other things. My new one has no problems, so am wondering if there is an easy way to correct the older MacPro's contrast problems. The computer is over three years old, and I'm wondering also if this failure is an aging sign. (I also have other problems, such as a noisy DVD drive, which is part of the reason I bought a new MacBook Pro.)Is the older MBP a pre-Unibody model from early 2008? If so, it could be having this problem:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2377
If so, you would be entitled to a free repair.
The lost contrast could be considered distorted video.
Do you have an external monitor? If the external shows the same lost contrast, the graphics chip is likely the culprit. If the external is OK, then you probably have an issue with the built in display or possibly with its connections.
You may also want to check in Universal Access to see if the contrast bar is set in its normal position (all the way to the left).
Apple has a special test they can run to diagnose the NVIDIA issue, so if you have access to an Apple Store, make an appointment at the genius bar to have it run.
Good luck! -
In the last four months i have attempted to update my billing info, it says my billing information does not match despite verifying it several times with the bank. I walked into an Apple store hoping they would be able to magically fix it, but they were unsuccessful at it as well. I was asked to call into and speak to someone in support but they just ended up sending me to a website so that i would have to explain my situation again. I need help fixing this please!
What did itunes support tell you?
If you did everything it says then you contacted them.
From the article you linked:
If the issue persists, you can visit iCloud Support, iTunes Support, Apple Print Products, or contact AppleCare for further assistance." -
i can not get itunes to install and open on my new laptop i am so frustrated i uninstalled and reinstalled at least a dozen times in the last month
i got a error 7 this time but have had diff ones befpre please helpWill iTunes open in safe mode? Hold down CTRL+SHIFT as, or immediately after, you click the icon that starts iTunes and keep holding until you see this prompt.
Click Continue.
Assuming iTunes has opened, enable the menu bar, if necessary, with CTRL+B. Then go to Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. Press OK, close iTunes, wait until it has had a chance to fully close then reopen.
Will iTunes open normally now?
If not, see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for genral advice.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

I usually have iCloud backup but I got a notification that my phone has not backed up for the last two weeks, and It wont let me do it manually.There is also still enough storage space. Why did it all of a sudden stop backing up?
The HT1766 article you attached lists the prerequisites for an iCloud backup:
iCloud automatically backs up the most important data on your device using iOS 5 or later. After you have enabled Backup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in Settings > iCloud > Backup & Storage, it will run on a daily basis as long as your device is:
Connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi
Connected to a power source
Screen locked
You can also back up manually whenever your device is connected to the Internet over Wi-Fi by choosing Back Up Now from Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup. -
Updated firefox SEVERAL times in the last few months and even though everything goes ok with the installation, it never upgrades! I get notices on my college website as well as other that I have an incompatible version and have to upgrade, BUT OT NEVER WORKS!!!
In the "More system details..." for your post, it shows an ancient version:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.17) Gecko/2009122116 '''Firefox/3.0.17''' (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) FBSMTWB
It could have something to do with that acronym at the end, which I think is associated with one of your add-ons.
To see your true current version, you can check Help > About Firefox.
If your true current version is 6.0.2 (today's version), then you may need to clear a setting using the about:config preference editor. Here's how:
(1) Type or paste '''about:config''' into the location bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful if it appears.
(2) Type '''agent''' into the filter box and wait for the list to be filtered.
(3) Right-click '''general.useragent.override''' and choose Reset to return that preference to its default value.
Any luck? -
After ios7 I have to do "hard resets" several times a day. Phone freezes and shuts off.
Hello Hockey2013,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Usually for an iPhone that is doing this I would recommend resetting the device, but you do that already. Next I would have to recommend backing up to iTunes, then restoring the device.
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
After you restore the device I would set it up as new and use it for a bit to see if the issue persists. If it does not, restore from your backup and then test it for a bit again to verify that it works.
Regards,

Firefox has been crashing at random times for the last two days
Firefox has been crashing randomly for the last two days. I had to download Malwarebytes yesterday because I picked up Malware Doctor (I think that's the name.) It was soon after I had removed the spyware that Firefox started crashing.

Safari crashes several times while on pinterest, screen goes black then goes to home screen when I start safari again it keeps doing the same thing. I checked the diagnostics page and there are several references stating low memory yet when I check the memory on the iPad there is plenty of memory help please
The memory that is low is the processor memory, not the overall storage space. Next time, before you go to that site, double tap the home button to see the task bar. You will see the list of apps siting in the recently used list. Most of them are not doing anything, but some of them are using up memory. Touch and hold any one of them until they jiggle, then close them all off by touching the minus sign.
Do that every so often to help the pad use it's memory wisely.
Some apps, and browser pages use a lot of memory, and do not give it back easily, causing what sis happening to you.
You can also get a similar result by rebooting. Press and hold the home and sleep buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider. -

Now getting FaceTime failed message when trying to connect with a person that were connecting successfully with up unto two weeks ago, has something changed?
Take a look around you here in this forum. Many people are talking about having problems using FaceTime. A few users claim to have contacted Apple and Apple says that they are aware of an issue with FaceTime and that they are working on it.
Some users claim that upgrading to iOS 7 solved there problem with FaceTime. Take a look around the forum and read some of the other discussions.
