a popup named The Browser Highlighter appears when Mozilla is turned on. it is frozen and does not respond and will not disappear
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== when i updated the the latest version of firefox

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
If you have many extensions then you can first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.

Recently my IMac with osx 10.4.11 has been running extremely slow. It takes forever for Safari to switch screens. You can hear the computer constantly working. To the point where I have tried restarting.I have run Sophos antivirus software and have found nothing. Any suggestions?

First remove the antivirus software, it's possible that could be part of your problem! Slow Mac's can be caused by many different issues, including failing HD's, a HD that is too full (OS X really likes to have about 10-15% of the HD available), insufficient RAM, etc.. To troubleshoot your problem I'd recommend looking over 25 Ways to Speed Up Your Mac.

Severia,
I tried your solution, but it did not work with my laptop. After I restart the laptop, the language does not change and I cannot type the password in English language. Do you have any other suggestion?
Thank you.

Why does my iPhoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of times to the point where I have to force quit it and how do I fix it?

Why does my iphoto seem to get "stuck" a lot of the times when I try to exit it to the point where I have to "force quit" it and how do I fix the problem that causes it?

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
does this only happen when you try to quit iPhoto?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

Why would firefox be using so much memory that the application itself freezes to the point where I have to force the program to end?

For the past few days, I've been doing research for a presentation that I am doing for college. As I've been using Firefox, the program freezes to the point where I have to force the program to terminate. I have a computer with 8 gigs of ram and an i5 quad core processor running at 2.8 ghz. There are no viruses or spyware on the system, and there isn't anything else running. There are no addons applied to my browser, and no personas. There should be no memory issues to the point where an internet browser would freeze this badly.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

I want to remove Adobe Updater from the Mac OS X menu bar. It is defunct now that the Cloud updater is installed. I deleted the updater and other superfluous software when I updated to the Creative Cloud. Now I can't remove the Adobe Updater "A" from the

I want to remove Adobe Updater from the menu bar!

Heyyo6789 depending upon the Adobe Creative software title installed the update mechanism in the menu bar may still be needed.
Thank you for the feedback. This behavior will likely be changed in a future version of the Creative Cloud Desktop applications. I would recommend referencing Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud app for desktop | Release Notes which is updated with features which have been added to the Creative Cloud Desktop application.

When I display the view-formula command , the information in the cell displays vertically and it is very hard to read. I want it to go back to the horizontal display I have had all along. Thanks

Why can't I block certain people face timing and imessageing me? I keep receiving random facetime calls every 5 minutes got to the point where I have has to turn facetime off.

Why can't I block certain people face timing and imessageing me? I keep receiving random facetime calls every 5 minutes got to the point where I have has to turn facetime off.

I'm having the same problem, but it's also coming through on my computer, through my Apple email address. I have a very short Apple email, and little kids are trying to facetime their little friends, and then when I tell them I'm not their friend, they FaceTime or iMessage me even more, thinking that I'm still their friend, and I'm just kidding around.
I can't block the kids before they call...I don't know who they are. I want to restrict my FaceTime to only my phone number, and block all FaceTime and iMessage requests that are coming in through my email address. Can I do that?
I have another thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5840011

I have 2 different iCloud accounts and would like to delete the account where I have purchased paid for extra iCloud data storage. Can I transfer this additional storage over to my other account?

I have 2 different iCloud accounts and would like to delete the account where I have paid for extra iCloud data storage. Can I transfer the data storage over to my other account? I am trying to get my iCloud and Apple account with same user name.

You'll have to contact Apple about that.
Their iCloud support page indicates you cannot merge or transfer iCloud accounts.
What do you mean by, I am trying to get my iCloud and Apple account with same user name.

The comp where I have my iTunes installed went dead, how do I access my iTunes again using other computer? I bought an iPad and I can't sync it to my itunes. unable to buy apps as well

the computer where I have my iTunes installed went dead. How do I access my iTunes again? Have no back up or whatsoever.

No backup is not good at all. This has always been very important.
You can transfer itunes purchases from your ipad/iphone/ipod: File>Transfer Purchases
You can e-mail pics to yourself. They will not be of the original quality.
You can enter one unique contact and calendar entry on the computer, you should get the option to merge the data when you first sync.
In some countries you can redownload some purchases:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I am running Leopard 10.5.8 and want to partition Windows 7. The windows 7 I have is not a cd, I downloaded it. How do I install if I don't have the Windows 7 cd AND I don't have a PC to create a USB or CD?

Thanks Fred. So I bought Snow Leopard, also installed ALL updates to now 10.6.8
Problem: when I start my Boot Camp (3.0.4) it does not let me use a USB. I have been reading your article that I can be on a later Boot Camp but somehow Apple is not leading me where to actually download this Boot Camp Assistant upgrade.
Keep in mind: every update on Apple about Boot Camp has been .exe which is useless to me since I do not have Windows installed.

I mostly work on Mac desktop, but use a Macbook Pro on trips. Due to limited HD space on the latter, I want to create a library of part of the images on the Mac, to be used on the Macbook. I do not however want to remove these images from the Mac library.

Choose one or more Projects, and then use Export as New Library (from File). The resulting export will be a fully functioning Aperture Library to either transfer and open on the Macbook Pro, or to Import into a library you already have on the MBP.

I want to delete my pictures off iPhone because I want to free up space on the Phone. I have the pics on iCloud on my computer in my pics fdlder. I do not want to delete off computer, will it?

Open the iCloud control panel on your computer and click "Options" next to "Photo Stream". The pictures must not be copied into either of the folders listed, any other folder is fine.
Before you delete all the photos from your phone I would recommend that you only delete one, at first, to check that it is not deleted from your computer.
