I just updated 3 addons and now Firefox goes into background mode and I am not able to reach the Tools/Addons to disable any addons.

Firefox stays in foreground for maybe 10 secs before going into background. I can't reach FF to do anything with FF.
I have to use Task Manager to close FF.
I don't remember which 3 addons were updated, but I was notified of updates when I tried to open FF at about midnight this morning.

hi there i tried the removal of the sessionstore.js file and and fired up the mozilla firefox up again and still no joy from the windows xp machine all other browsers work fine, its just hanging still, reading the article from the link you sent i can't any issues that i am getting but i did manage to un-install the FF8 again deleted any folders and dowloaded V3.6.24 from here http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
then updated from there and all seemed to go well then yet again i got the same issue ,when i open the browser i am unable to type in the search and use the mouse on the File edit etc menus rendering the browser useless so i think its a the update to V8.0 that is causing the issue, when i reinstalled i had no themes no plugins the extensions on the 1st boot ticked the MS .net there was that and java Un-ticked when the browser booted up it was the same hanging for ever . i think i may stick with the older version for now until a fix is available as there is some thing that does not like this new version on that pc... but i hope you can help me to upgrade as its annoying now
:-)

I have a 4S and just tried updating to the latest iOS version and my phone went into recovery mode and iTunes says I need to restore to factory settings. Anyone know how I can fix my phone without losing all my content?

You would only be able to restore to a backup to iCloud or iTunes:

Google Toolbar Options, in the Search tab, make sure that '''Enable the Google new tab page''' is check-marked. If that doesn't fix it for you, see this for support information about the Google Toolbar. <br />

As far as your UserAgent showing Firefox 3.0.11, see this: <br />

I am about to go get my 4th iphone 4s since November! Up in the left coener where it shows your signal strength, it goes into searching mode and stays there. Kills my battery. This one has lasted the longest-I got it December 23. Any ideas out there?

I am about to go get my 4th iphone 4s since November! Up in the left corner where it shows your signal strength, it goes into searching mode and stays there. Kills my battery. While in searching, no calls can be made/recieved, no internet, etc. This one has lasted the longest-I got it December 23. Any ideas out there?

Both. The first two, I did use my itunes. The guy at the apple store said that could be the problem. The last time they gave me a new phone and SIM card, and the tech said it wouldnt be the itunes. Just to be safe, I never connected this phone to the itunes until last night-after it started searching- to save everything since I'm sure they will be replacing the phone today. But hey, thanks for the suggestions. I'm about at my wits end with Apple!! Especially since i added a third line to my account just so I could get an iphone back.

While editing a document,Pages goes into beachball mode,and quit

While editing a document,Pages goes into beachball mode,and quit. Cannot retrieve edits

Is it just one particular document or any document?
If just one document I'd guess there is some corruption in the document, usually a font or an image.
If it is all documents, the corruption likely lies in the Pages preferences. Go to HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences, delete the com.apple.iwork.pages.plist file & then restart Pages. In Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu & your user Library will appear about halfway down the list.

Macbook spontaneously goes into sleep mode and screen off mode

Hi. My Macbook spontaneously goes into sleep mode and screen off mode with varying time between each instance. It usually goes for a few minutes or even hours without doing it and then will go through periods of fluctuation between the modes. I believe this to have started with a minor orange juice accident rather than it being anything software related.
Any ideas as to how I might rectify the problem? Thanks very much in advance,
Danny

When you say it goes into sleep mode ...do you mean you actually see the white pulsing light?
It may be that there is an application running (perhaps in the background) that is keeping your book awake. Printer software sometimes does this for example ...try logging out and seeing if it sleeps like that. If it does, then it very well may be a background process running.
You may find some items in System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items that may be the culprit.

I am using my iPhone 5 to take pictures and have started a blog with pictures. I am not able to do the update on my phone due to lack of memory.

I am using my iPhone 5 to take pictures and have started a blog with pictures. I am not able to do the update on my phone due to lack of memory. I wanted to know how much difference this will make to my pictures.
If anyone had suggestions on how to maximize picture quality n use without the update, I'd appreciate it
<Link Edited By Host>

If the lack of space on your phone is due to pictures, you may want to consider transferring some (or all) to a computer and deleting them from the phone. That is a good practice even if you have space on the phone. Instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083

My iPhone turns off whenever it goes into standby mode and has to be turned back on to work

My iPhone turns off whenever it goes into standby mode and has to be turned back on to work

That's normal behavior. It turns off automatically in order to preserve the battery. Pushing the On/Off button turns it on immediately. This also requires entering the passcode and prevents the phone from being accessed by anyone but you.

Can you boot into your Recovery partition (hold down the command and R keys whilst booting)?

When the system goes into sleep mode it keeps making a beeping noise. The system is shut down by holding the button in

When the system goes into sleep mode it keeps making a beeping noise. The system is shut down by holding the button in
and will then boot up again without any errors.
I Have replace RAMS, Motherboard and Power Supply. I have check the Bio's and Power setting on the unit. there is no place to cause this issue.
Please help
PC Power Tech

Syamak,
You didn’t specify where the beeping noise is coming from.
If it’s coming through your speakers, you could try to update your audio drivers since it’s possible they’re incorrectly sending a signal to the speakers as the audio chipset enters standby.
If the noise is coming from the motherboard, you’ll need to take a closer look at your system’s configuration or contact the manufacturer.
I hope this helps.

TS5329 i did an update on my sons phone and now it is in recovery mode and than refuses to reboot. says it can not restore? it was working fine until it called for this update and while doing it it went into recovery mode?! please help!!!

Do exactly as it says, connect to a computer running iTunes and restore.

Wifi goes on and off, backlit keyboard doesn't work and no sound since Lion upgrade. I can get the wifi back by going into safe mode and re booting(someone suggested on here), but can't let computer die or turn off or have to do it again.

My Wifi connection goes off if computer dies or shuts off, I can only make it work if I go into safe mode and reboot, it was just that, but now my keyboard doesn't light up like it's supposed to in low or no light and in system preferences it's like it doesn't exist. Also, the sound doesn't work, I can't turn it up or down, it shows the sound icon grayed out and the anti symbol when I push F11 and F12, also it's like it doesn't exist in system preferences either. I have never had any problems with my MB Pro, I purchased in Feb. 2010. , but I upgraded to Lion last month, I haven't been using my laptop as much since I had an Ipad I given to me, so I think that's why I didn't notice these issues right away. What do I do? HELP!! Do I take it to Apple? I don't have the Apple care warranty, so will it be expensive for them to fix? Can I get my money back for Lion if I restore to Snow Leopard?

Take it to an Apple store or AASP. How much it will cost will depend on their determination of the problems. To bad you didn't purchase extended AppleCare. No you don't get your money back for purchasing Lion.

I just updated 3 addons and now Firefox goes into background mode and I am not able to reach the Tools/Addons to disable any addons.
