ICal opens itself (even after i close it)

I may need a list of iCal files to help me through this, but whenever I close the app, it opens itself right back up, sometimes right away, sometimes a bit later. It is very persistent and a hassle since I don't even use iCal. What do I need to do to get this app to stay closed until I need it?

Thanks, Austin,
There were three calendars checked, Personal, Business, & Trade (I do not remember creating that one). In any case, I just unchecked them all and closed the app. Maybe that will take care of the problem. If so, I am embarrassed that I did not do that sooner!

ITunes keeps opening up, even after I close it?!?

Anyone else experiencing this? Jeeze, it is getting annoying. I close it and in about 3-4 minutes, it opens again.
I'm on a new PowerBook G4.

I have the EXACT same issue. I'm on a G5 PowerMac. It's not happening on my new Powerbook (G4) but i didn't install the latest OS update on my powerbook because it's giving me issues on my G5 (ichat doesn't work and iTunes keeps opening itself). I think it has something to do with the update that's just my guess.

If it is doing it while your device is plugged in, it is because it is set to automatically sync. Please go to: Preferences>Devices, and select the option to "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically." Also, I hate to be "that guy", but you spelt extremely wrong. Just a pro tip.

I've got the exact same issue! I'm pretty sure it just started today too. It's so bizarre because we've all been using Firefox 26.0 for at least a month, right? How could the ''about:home'' page all of a sudden cause this issue?
I've been able to replicate this issue on a virtual machine running Windows XP SP3, so clearly it has nothing to do with Windows 7.

Every time Firefox opened

See [[Pop-up blocker]] for troubleshooting information on why pop-ups are not being blocked. A pop-up from Firefox will have the Firefox logo and it will say Mozilla Firefox on top (See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Pop-up+blocker?bl=n&s=pop%2520up%2520blocker#Is_the_pop_up_coming_from_Firefox_ Is the pop-up coming from Firefox?] for more information.) Attached is an example. If you determine the pop-ups are not coming from Firefox:

Acrobat X Pro won't open. Even after a reinstall - what can I do?

My Acrobat X Pro won't open - even after a reinstall. What can I do?

Thanks Jeff - what's strange is that I've been prompted a few times since installation to register the software, so I don't know why it would be doing that if it's already registered.
When prompted, I would follow the links to the registration information page, and then work through the registration process, and then when prompted to enter the serial code it does not accept it. I've tried the serial code that came with the license, as well as the serial codes for the individual products (Illustrator, Photoshop, etc.), and none of those were accepted by the registration form. So "registering to an account which includes your companies information would be sufficient." does not seem to be working for me, unless there is more to "including the companies information" then I've seen in the sign up pages.
To be clear, I'm not fumbling around blindly here, I've done a lot to try and register the product myself and have yet to succeed.
My questions are these (and apologies if this is not directly related to the OT), 1) is there a way to confirm the product is registered, 2) if it is not registered, what specifically do I need to tell the purchasing people to do to make sure it is registered properly, and 3) after following the process here: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/acrobat-failed-launch-30-days.html - does this fix the Acrobat issue for good, or will I have to repeat this process in another 30 days? Does lack of registration potentially affect other products in the Web and Design Creative Suite?
Thanks again for the assistance, I'm hoping to get enough information to be able to give our IT folks a clear resolution to the registration issue.

ITunes opens up right after I close it for Windows 8 Enterprise Edition

As stated iTunes opens immediately after I close it. We can step around the "it's a Windows 8 problem" or "why are you using Windows 8", beucase I've had aboslutely no problems with iTunes up untill today and I haven't had any problems with Windows 8 in genernal. It took me a day to get accostumed to it and I absolutely love it. I'm in IT at a college, and I'm just needing help with this issue. So now that that's out of the way, here's whats been going on, I just tried to install iOS 7 and I plugged in my iPad 2 to install the update and it iTunes needs to update to version 11.1.1. It had been a while since I had plugged my iPad 2 in. iTunes is not booting up with Windows and I am not having problems with it loading whenever I plug a device in. It is just running on it's own whenever I close it, that is all. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi G. Thorson!
I have a couple of troubleshooting suggestions for you that may help you with this issue. This first article is written toward troubleshooting various issues in Windows installations of iTunes:
iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
If those troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, you may need to uninstall your version of iTunes on your computer and reinstall from the Apple website:

Can't open itunes,even after un-installing and then re-installing!

I keep getting the following error message when trying to open itunes on my pc.
'The folder "itunes" cannot be found or created, and is required.The default location for this folder is inside the "my music" folder.'
This error message appeared even after un-installing and re-installing itunes.
I conducted a search for the 'my music' folder,and it came up with nothing.
Please help!

If you truly don't have a folder named C/......./My Music, there are bigger problems with that PC.
That folder is a default windows XP folder and should be there.
The file extensions setting is easy to change. Win Explorer > Tools > Folder options
http://www.fileinfo.com/help/windows-show-extensions.html
If your music folder really doesn't exist, see if you can do the shift-start and CREATE a new library. It will be blank, but at least that will tell us if itunes can even start. It will NOT run without an ITL library file.

Thunderbird seems to stay open even after I close it. Then I have to restart to get it to work.

I close Thunderbird using the X in the upper right hand corner. Later, I wish to open it, but I get a message telling me that TB is still open and that I must restart to get it open again. Can someone help with this issue? Maybe I am closing it incorrectly?

Many thanks, Finitarry. You have solved my problem. Right clicking the icon in the taskbar did not give me the Exit option, but the Menu did! :-)

ICloud continues to show open tabs even after Safari quit

Since OS 10.10, when I close and quit Safari on my iMac or MBP iCloud occasionally continues to show an open tab on the other devices like the iPhone, even for several hours after Safari has been quit on the iMac. This is annoying in that one time I left it, and the iMac restarted because of a kernel panic.
This appears to be an iCloud and Yosemite problem. Furthermore, I have called Apple care twice about this, and they have been unable to find any problem with my computers.
Has anyone else had this problem, and what to do about it.

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)

A hardy ghost of Firefox is apparently running in my computer and I am unable to open Firefox, even after Window restarts and an uninstall/re-install. How do I find and fix this problem?

What happened first is Firefox was revving and using most of my CPU, ultimately "not responding" too easily and for too long, so I closed it in order to reopen it, but Firefox remained running in background (Task Mgr, Processes) after closing, continuing to use almost all my CPU, so I ended the process in Task Mgr.
When I went to re-open it, window opened and told me Firefox could not be opened because another "instance"(?) was still running, to close it or restart Windows. I couldn't close it because I already closed it AND ended the process, so I restarted Windows.
When I tried to open Firefox, I got the same pop-up. I think I restarted Windows one more time, and then uninstalled Firefox, except for my personal settings (in order to save the bookmarks, which I couldn't find in the Firefox folder in Program Files (only Favorites, which were not my bookmarks; I later wondered if they were part of the Firefox add-on "Add This" --??).
I then uninstalled Firefox and re-installed it. When I tried to start the newly re-installed program, I had the same pop-up telling me Firefox was already running and to close it or restart Windows.
I searched my computer folders for anything that might help, did a Search of the computer for "Firefox", and was given some Firefox folders and if they weren't from the new re-install, I deleted them. One thing I noticed was that the program folder did NOT have the program (Firefox.exe) icon to start Firefox.
I uninstalled Firefox and had to resort to using Internet Explorer, which I do NOT like. My rich library of bookmarks are who knows where.
I don't know if this is related, but in searching my computer's Administrative Services and Component Tools (and the like) hoping to find something that would help me fix Firefox, I inadvertently learned that "MMC could not create the snap-in. The snap-in might not have been installed correctly. Name: .NET Framework 1.1 Config."
Please help me get Firefox back and figure out what is going on in my computer that led to this. I am a basic user and not techno-computer saavy, so if anyone can help me with this, please give me step-by-step bonehead instructions.
Thank you so much for any help you can offer!

Make sure that Firefox is set as the default browser.
