You can call Apple. The number is 1-888-FACETIME. Yes, it is 11 digits.
Your post has nothing to do with my post...
As for YOUR post...
Most people don't know the true definition of multitasking, and the difference between multitasking and backgrounding.
On a phone, you can't multitask with anything except music. On a computer, you can watch a movie, monitor an IM conversation you are having with a friend and type up a document for work/school.
On a phone? NO.
Apple is ONLY calling this multitasking because people are sheep and too stupid to realize that you CAN'T multitask on a mobile device, ESPECIALLY ON A CELL PHONE.
What we are actually doing is backgrounding, and when you get down to the heart of how the backgrounding works, it makes people's heads try to explode. They try to understand it, but those who aren't technically inclined blow up the whole definition out of proportion. Also, developers are the reasons why apps don't multitask, NOT Apple (although Apple shoulda' gotten on the ball with backgrounding sooner).
Pretty much, there are 7 APIs that are available to devs, if they want to keep running a service in the background. This is much more efficient, because if you can't see the application, what is the point of still having it run??? It should ONLY keep the SERVICE open that it needs.
As for the "multitasking", as long as the dev recompiles their app against the new 4.0 SDK (they don't have to change any code, merely open it in the new SDK and recompile it), the app will then "freeze" itself in the state it is in when the end user hits the Home button. Then, when the user goes back the app, it will "unfreeze" itself and to the end user, it will seem as if it was never closed.
As for the system handing this, if an app is opened that needs more memory than is available, it will look at the frozen apps, and will find the one that you used LAST (the "least recently used" algorithm) and will close that one, and thus, the CPU and memory that it needs to run the new app will be obtained.
However, the end user who wants to understand but doesn't, won't understand this. I don't like when I hear people complaining about this issue.
Here is a link to the 7 backgrounding APIs.

i can't open my iPhoto, it was working very slow and now its not working at all, when i try to open it it shows this message: The application “iPhoto” unexpectedly quit while trying to restore its windows. Do you want to try to restore its windows again?
how can i fix this problem?There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have. -

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.

I can't get new mail. This is what i'm getting: This account (iCloud) appears to be offline due to a network problem. Do you want to try to go online now?
10.8.4, created a new account to basicall get the MS Exchange email working because the old email under the other account is again SNAFU.
Same Stuff, Different Day. A perinal Apple defect as it never has worked right. The irony is that an open source clunky Java solution called DAVMail is more stable and reliable than the professional Mail app for providing MS Exchange compatibility. The lesson learned is that Apple's MS Exchange Mail.app compatiblity stinks on ice.
Google DAVMail. You have to load Java :-( but it works better than Apple's native implementation. -

Compressor 4 crashes on opening keep getting this warning: The application “Compressor” unexpectedly quit while trying to restore its windows. Do you want to try to restore its windows again? Tried Restoring windows. It crashes again. Tried not = Same result. This is the first time I've actually used the app although I purchased it back in April (I think). I had my first longform project completed in FCPX and tried sending it to Compressor 4 and got this result over and over again.
Steve,
Sorry to say I've not had any success in getting Compressor 4 to work. I've tried every suggestion mentioned earlier on this topic to no avail. Compressor 4 is dead in the water. On the last two projects I had to go back to Compressor 3.x.xx to complete the projects. The only hint that I have of wha may have happened concerns something I did early on. When I bought this computer I decided to replace the hard drive with a larger one. Since I already had my software up and working on the drive that came with the computer I decided to clone everything to the new larger drive. As I recall, Compressor 4 worked on the original drive but it doesn't work on this cloned version. So maybe there is a relationship there. I haven't had a chance yet to reinstall my old drive and see if C 4 works on it. If it does work then I know the source of the problem but not how to fix it on the new drive. Did you do anything like cloning your drive recently too? It's just a thought and may not lead anywhere but later this week when I catch a break I'll give the old drive a try and will post my results.
Thanks,
Peter -
While making a backup copy in Itunes of my Iphone I receive the following error message: While making a backup copy of this iPhone (-35) an error has occurred. Do you want to continue with altering this Iphone? When you continue al the material on this Iphone will be lost.
I reinstalled iTunes but that dit not help. After synching iTunes with my iPhone it also asks to authorize my pc and when i Click on ok, it says it is already authorized.
Please can somebody help me, so I can make backup.
Greetz,
DerkIt's likely that your backup is corrupt. Try deleting the backup, then right click on the name of the phone in iTunes and choose "back up". To delete go to iTunes Preferences, Devices tab. Highlight and delete the most recent backup. Note that sometimes deleting this way leaves some garbage around that can still interfere with a new backup, so you should verify that the backup folder is empty.
from: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press the Return key. -
How could I re-open my mail box, as an error message blocked "The last time you opened Mail, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again?" Even I entered re-open, the airbook does not response but prompt the same error message again.

The following phrase/option box keeps popping up on my finder: The last time you opened Finder, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again? regardless of whether I click to reopen or not the box disappears and then comes back again regardless of which answer I pick. How do I get rid of this annoyance?
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful. -
updated today and cannot open my mails it says: The last time you opened Mail, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again?
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this. -

Which user account do you want to use to run this program?
As of fairly recently, when I click to start Firefox, and just before it actually opens up, I get a the following screen:
"Which user account do you want to use to run this program?"
I have researched the internet and it seems as if many people have encountered this same problem.
What's causing it, is it dangerous to my computer and how can I get rid of this message?This is a Windows feature that should only open if you right click on the Firefox icon and select ''Run As...".
Try creating a new shortcut to Firefox.<br>
You must make a shortcut to the <code>firefox.exe</code> in the Firefox installation directory. -

This issue can be caused gadgets on the Facebook page.
You will have to check that out by removing each of them until you find the culprit.
If you added or updated gadgets recently than start with those.
