  • I try shutting down my MacBook Air but it wont let because the application "Mail" is still open but it will not let me close Mail so i can shutdown my computer

    I try shutting down my mac but it says that it cant because "Mail" is open. so i try quitting mail but it will not let me!

    Force quit Mail app. Apple logon in the menu bar select Force Quit. A dialog window will open select Mail.app and click the force quit button.
    If that doesn't work hold down the power button until the system turns off. Then press it again to restart your Mac.

  • The program will not close properly unless I turn off the computer.

    The program will not close properly. If I close it and then try to restart it I get a message saying that Firefox is already running.

    Even under normal circumstances it takes a few seconds after exiting Firefox before you can launch Firefox again successfully.
    But you're right, sometimes a zombie Firefox process lives on, consuming CPU cycles and memory long after all the user interface for it has disappeared. The zombie Firefox process blocks the launch of new ones. It's annoying, but there is a lighter-weight work-around than rebooting. If you key Del while holding down Ctrl and Alt (the old three-finger DOS reboot), either the Windows Task manager will pop up immediately or you can select it from a list of options. In the Windows Task Manager's Processes tab, you should be able to find "firefox.exe" in the Image Name column. (Left-clicking the Image Name column will sort the names alphabetically, and then you can scroll up or down looking for "f".) Left-click on that "firefox.exe" and then left-click the "End Process" box. A warning box should then pop up, asking if you're really sure you want to terminate the process. Answer Yes. Then wait a few seconds for disk activity to die down. Then re-launch Firefox as you would normally.

  • IOS 7.0.4 will not let me update. It kicks me off the internet

    When I click on the update it tells me I am not on the internet and I am?

    Hey Laxmom83,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues updating your iPad. If you have not already attempted to do so, can you perform the update with iTunes on a computer? Don’t forget to backup your iPad first!

  • Installer stopped at 95% and won't let me force quit, restart or turn off the computer

    The flash player install manager stopped at 95% on my Mac and has been like that for a couple of days now. I can't end the installer, I can't even force quit. The installer doesn't allow me to restart or turn off the computer, because it's "still installing".
    How can I solve this problem? Please help me!

    Hello,
    Did you tried Flash Player 11.2, Flash Player Archived : http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
    Use Flash Player uinstaller (http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-mac-os.html) to clean any instance for Flash Player.

  • Mail can not quit every time when i try to turn off the computer

    It appears a week ago i guess after i upgrade the system.
    when i try to turn off the computer, it always says, Mail can not quit.
    so i have to force it exit everytime before i shut down the computer!
    and it is pretty slow for Mail to quit, i only have 3 accounts there with one i never use.
    i never met this problem before.
    looking forward to get an idea here.

    This issue seemed to resolve itself.  Case closed.

  • July 18,2011 AOL toolbar update install. I cannot open Firefox to uninstall the update or the toolbar because everytime I open Firefox it freezes and jams up. I have to shut down my computer as it will not even respond to force quit command

    July 18,2011 AOL toolbar update install. I cannot open Firefox to uninstall the update or the toolbar because everytime I open Firefox it freezes and jams up. I have to shut down my computer as it will not even respond to force quit command. I cannot read my mail (aol) or access my bookmarks all for work.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    # You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    You should be able to uninstall that AOL toolbar extension while running in the Firefox SafeMode.
