I just downloaded firefox 7.0.1 and when I try to open it I get a firefox.exe - application error stating "instruction at 0x1000863c referenced memory at 0x1000863c. The memory could not be read." The application never opens. what can I do?

As stated above I get an error message when I try to open Firefox. The options given in the message are "click OK to terminate program" or "click CANCEL to deug program".

I have now downloaded an older version of firefox and it seems to be working as long as I don't use the google homepage or search.
I am guessing that my computer is just to old to support the 7.0.1 version.
Thanks for your help.

  • The document could not be read: the document does not have a valid format.

    I created a 10MB document in Pages about a week ago. Around that time, I reopened the document and edited it with no problems. A week later, I've tried to open the document but Pages gives me the following error:
    The document "[Document Name].pages" could not be read. The document does not have a valid format.
    I created, edited, and saved this document in Pages, so I am confused as to why Pages would be unable to re-open the file, especially as I haven't done anything to it since it worked last. I was worried that my hard drive might have corrupted the file so I ran diagnostic tests but everything was fine. I was also worried that because the file is synced with my iDisk that iDisk corrupted the file while syncing it or something but I don't know what I could do to check this. Either way, it's an important file and I need to open it: I thought that by putting it on iDisk I would have a copy in case something happened to my computer but this seems not to have helped (and maybe hurt!).
    Any file recovery tools or other ways that I can open this file?

    No, I don’t have Pages ’08 installed, but did in the past—is this a current issue?
    Pages ’09 is registered.
    I have tried dragging the file onto the app icon directly.
    To recover at least the text, I did the “rename as zip, open index.xml” trick. Of course, in order to interpret that file, you do have to understand XML (thank god I do)… but if I hadn’t, man that would’ve been a major bummer.

  • I have just downloaded two songs from Itunes, and when I try to put them on my iphone they will not go there. There is an icon showing; which is a red ring with a cross through it?

    Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Can you connect to a wifi source on the device? Enable wifi in settings on the device itself. If you don't have wifi at home, there may be a local hotspot you can use for this.
    The reason this happens is carriers don't want people downloading huge files that would slow their network as well as eat up your data plan.

    Hi, oldcrow13.
    Thank you for the response.  Typically this error is caused by installing an older verison of iTunes than you had prior.  When you installed iTunes did you download the program directly from iTunes.com, or did you use an older copy of the program on your computer?  If you used an older version or are unsure, uninstall all the components one more time and download a new copy of iTunes via the link below.

  • The iTunes application could not be opened. The disk could not be read from or written to

    I have my iTunes library stored on an external hard drive. The hard drive seems to work fine with no issues whatsoever. However, whenever i attempt to open iTunes I get the following message "The iTunes application could not be opened. The disk could not be read from or written to."
    Plz help...this is driving me off the wall!

    I fixed it. I just moved my iTunes library from the external harddrive to the Macintosh HD and its working fine again with all the data, tags and what not in tact. Apparently there were a couple corrupt files in the external harddrive iTune library.

    Why did you mark your post as solved?
    You will be better off posting in either the Lion or the iPhoto forum areas as this area is for Macbook Pro issues.  You are having software issues.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • Uncategorized , the document "ViewController.xib" could not be read , the archive could not be opened

    Dear Friends ,
    i am using xcode 4.3.2 on snow leopard 10.6.8  , i have updated patches to the system ,
    now i am trying to build very simple app that contains one label , a button and a date picker .
    when i exclude the date picker everything compiles but when i add a date picker i am getting the following error during the compilation process and my application won't compile properly
    Uncategorized , the document "ViewController.xib" could not be opened , the archive could not be read .
    i am just wondering what is exactly the problem behind that ,
    note , i have removed xcode completely and i reinstalled it but i am still getting the same error.
    any help would be highly appreciated from all of you.
    best regards

    Hey hi,
    Remove the reference of your ViewController.xib from your project and try to add it again from your project folder. It may works for you.

  • I just tried updating to iTunes 10.7 on my pc and when I try to launch it I get this error message-The procedure entry point AVCFPlayerSetDirect3DDevice could not be located in the dynamic library AVFoundationCF.dll.  Any Ideas?

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

  • "The file could not be read due to an error" Opens on one computer, displays this on another.

    Hello,
    I'm trying to troubleshoot several Illustrator files that won't open on desktops at my company's 2nd office. The files open fine on any desktop at my primary office. When opening the files from the 2nd office, it begins "Reading Illustrator file..." then the message "The file could not be read due to an error" is displayed and the file closes out.
    Both offices have the same model desktop and are running:
    Adobe Illustrator CS6 (up to date)
    Windows 7 x64
    Both desktops have the same system fonts and I've tried saving the files locally.
    Thanks, Shaun

    Hey Jacob and Monika,
    Sorry if I wasn't clear, but I did already try saving the files to the hard disk.
    "Both desktops have the same system fonts and I've tried saving the files locally."
    My fix was copying the content of the files into new, blank .ai files. Those new files open from both offices now.
    Still, I wish I could have identified the issue in case it happens again. The error message is vague and there isn't much info on the web about it.
    Best, Shaun

  • I firewired I-tunes music from crashed I-mac to a new I-mac. Then tried to sync my I-pod w/ the new computer and got messages "I-pod cannot be synced". Also, "the disc could not be read from or written to- you don't have the privilege to make changes"

    I firewired my i-tunes library from my old computer to a used I-mac which I bought. All purchased songs & playlists
    were succesfully transferred. When I tried to sync my empty I-pod to the used I-mac I received these messages.
              - I-pod cannot be synced
              - The disc could not be read from or written to
              - You dont have the priveledge to make changes.
    This is all my music legally downloaded and purchased from I-tunes. How to I circumvent this barrier?

  • Moving library to external hard drive and get the error "Copying files failed. The disk could not be read from or written to"

    Hello,
    I'm moving my library to an external hard drive.
    I've made sure to use the 'Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized' option when pointing to the new library location.
    I select 'File'->'Library'->'Organize Library', I select to 'Consolidate Files', click 'OK' and get ther error message "Copying files failed. The disk could not be read from or written to".
    I've read elsewhere that there may be a corrupted file that I need to sequester somehow and perhaps add it back however I'm not certain how I can locate that file because the status window doesn't indicate which file it's attempting to transfer when the error appears.
    Any tips?
    Thank you,
    Greg H
    iTunes 10.6.3

    OK I figured it out!
    It was a dodgy file....I sorted the file folders by date, and as it turned out within the "compilations" folder there was a CD where only about half the tracks seemed to have been copied over. Could not have identified this simply from the time indicated on the finder folder sort, because there were several CDs copied over in the that same minute.
    I went back to the original itunes folder, deleted all the files from that CD in itunes, then also deleted all those files from the original disk and the target disk.
    Tried the "consolidate library" again, and it completed nicely. 200megs of music and videos.
    Very happy to solve this problem after 3 weeks.

  • "The iPhone cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to."  Any clue what that is due to.  Everything but photos seem to sync fine.

    when syncing, I get an error message stating: "The iPhone cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to."  Any clue what that is due to.  Everything but photos seem to sync fine.

    I had the same problem when trying to sync my new ilPhone 4s and a fairly new iPad 2. I couldn't find anything in the forum about it. So, since my 4s was new, I called support and luckily I got a CSR with some knowledge. He at first thought it would be tough to fix but after thinking a minute he found the fix. The fix is:
    Click on finder, Go, Home, Pictures, then click on iPod photo cache and drag it to trash. Now try syncing again. It worked on both of mine. No problems since.

    In general, chkdsk errors should be fixed by either running chkdsk, or by Restoring the iPod using the latest iPod Updater. We have been discussing chkdsk issues (as related to buggy firmware) for a while now.
    Unfortunately, it seems to be manifesting on the Nano these days as well: Mick Pierce, "Ipod Nano connecting problems", 06:21pm Oct 25, 2005 CDT
    Try doing a Restore on your iPod - if you can, it's what is recommended to wipe the slate clean and fix any other corruption issues on the Pod.
    Kind regards,
    Gopha.
