Is there something I am missing?

Question
After using Firefox and either using the X in the upper right corner or file, exit and attempt to reopen it, I get a message it is still running. I have even tried to use CTRL, ALT, DEL and use task managet to close firefox in the process window but that doesn't work either. The only way I found to fix the problem is to restart windowx XP Home. Is there something I am missing?

hmm, that should close it. after you close it is there anything in the taskbar running.
Maybe try starting it in [[Safe Mode]], this would rule out an extension holding on to the process.

    You are more likely to get relavant and useful suggestions posting to the Mac forums instead of the iTunes for Windows forum where you've posted.

    Which theme are you using?
    When I am adding text in a slideshow, I found, that it will depend on the theme, if the text will be centered or flushed left.  The Classic and Ken Burns theme are centering the text, the newer themes will present it flushed left.
    I found no way to select a custom justification for the text.

  • I followed everything I need to do to enable my Apple ID account multiple times. Yet I still am not able to purchase anything. Not even with apple credits I have already stored in my account. Is there something I'm missing or doing wrong.

    What happens when you try to buy something ? If you are still getting the disabled message then since resetting your password have you logged out of your account on your device (by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store) or computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out menu option) and then logged back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it ?
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • CS5 won't open RAF files from FinePix HS10 & Camera Raw 6.3- Is there something I'm missing??

    Ok-
    I've bought CS5 Extended and then updated it (including the Camera Raw 6.3 update).
    I am using a MacBook Pro (and an iMac also).
    When I try to open the RAF file I get the message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognize this type of file." Yet the release notes for Camer Raw say that it will open FinePix HS10 files...
    So I then decided to try a manual install of Camera Raw- I get the same message.
    I have checked with other HS10 users and their PS does open them.
    Is there something obvious that I am missing- or is there a problem with the camera raw or the photoshop cs5??
    Hope someone can help!!
    Photoshop CS5 12.0.2 x64
    Adobe Bridge 4.0.4.2
    Camera Raw 6.3.0.79

    Actually, that's wrong. Camera Raw 6.3 WILL run as a 64-bit plug-in when hosted by Photoshop CS5 if CS5 is running as a 64-bit app. It'll run as a 32-bit plug-in when hosted by Bridge or Photoshop CS5 set to run as 32-bit.
    So, there's something else going on here....
    How are you trying to open the raw files? From within Bridge or the Finder? How did you update Camera Raw to version 6.3? From the updater? Is ACR 6.3 in the correct install location? main Library (not the User but root), Application Support/Adobe/Plug-ins/CS5/File Formats/Camera Raw.plugin
    Can you open raw images from within Bridge? Have you tried to view raw files with Bridge before you updated Camera Raw? Have you trashed the cache foe the folder? In Bridge under Tools/Cache/Purge Cache

  • I had CS6 and now I have installed CC. I cannot open files, place files, etc directly from the File Open... or File Place...   Is there something I'm missing in CC that I don't know about?

    I can open files directly from my Finder window (Mac OS, running latest installment). And I can copy/paste or drag/drop graphics into an open AI file for editing. But I can't use the AI>File>Open... or AI>File>Place... (or any shortcuts). Absolutely nothing happens. It's like I never clicked anything.
    Am I missing something???  I've never had this problem in CS6. Is there something different in CC that I need to add or erase?
    HELP!

  • I have to select bluetooth audio with every incoming call (instead of the call automatically going to bluetooth, which i want) -- is there something I'm missing?

    Just got new Bose bluetooth headphones, which work great -- can pair with iPhone 6+, mac, car -- the pairing is fine, sound is great, function is fine.  The problem is exclusively INCOMING calls. Unless I see the call on the phone, I cannot hear it through the headset (therefore rendering the bluetooth for incoming calls useless).
    Sequence is:
    Incoming call
    I have to manually select the bluetooth pair for the headset when the call is accepted
    Anyone know of something I'm missing here?
    It's not the headset -- it's working and pairing fine, sound is fine, AND i can make a call.
    Thanks.

    Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities
    This sounds like a bug and I would recommend filling out a feedback form letting Apple know what your problem is. https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • Windows Explorer was crashing/restarting every few seconds and after trying several different methods of fixes, the only one that worked was removing Firefox, is there something I've missed that I can get Firefox back?

    I'm running a Toshiba Satellite laptop that was originally running Windows Vista 32-bit, but was upgraded by me to Windows 7 32-bit. On Windows Vista, all I would run was Firefox. I loved it!!! On Windows 7, I've noticed that Firefox kept hanging whenever I would try to download a file...from anywhere. I got so frustrated I went to try several different browsers. They all worked extremely quickly, whereas Firefox was working so slow, I could click on a link to a page, go get some lunch, come back and it still be trying to load the page. This was drastically unusual for Firefox. I used the other browsers and everything was fine for a week and then Windows Explorer started going down every few seconds. I went to the windows 7 forums and started looking. There were several suggestions on how to fix the problem, none of which worked for my compy. I tried restarting the compy in safe mode. That didn't help. I turned off every startup program except for the essentials and that DID work in keeping Windows Explorer from restarting. I then dove into the tedious task of trying to discern which 3rd party program was the offender. I removed everything from my compy that had been downloaded in the last ten days (well before the windows explorer issue, but not before the firefox issue). That didn't work either. I tried replacing an explorer file, which didn't work either. There were several other things I tried, as well, but nothing worked. Then, I saw a post that Firefox had caused the problem for one person. I went in and did as was suggested and completely removed Firefox and all associated files. Unfortunately, this worked. I haven't had any more trouble with windows explorer restarting. My big problem is, however, I can't run Firefox!!! And I LOVE Firefox!!! It's spoiled me! I hate Internet explorer, which is what I'm forced to run now. I've tried Safari and Google Chrome and don't like either one of those, either. I want my Firefox back! But if it's not working 100% it's less frustrating to be forced to live with the Internet Explorer. I'm going insane, here! Does anyone have any suggestions? I tried clearing out browser history, changing download files and a couple of other things and nothing worked with the Firefox to get it going better before I started having the Windows Explorer difficulty and had to completely erase the Firefox program. If I've missed any info, please don't hesitate to ask!! I'm happy to supply whatever I know about the issue!!

    uninstalled firefox ....deleted all files still remaining under mozilla firefox directory in program files ... to avoid having to reprogram all my settings, reisntall all addons as well .. I did not remove anything from mozilla firefox that is stored in either appdata or under the windows users directory (if any)
    ... the as suggested reinstalled the latest version of the firefox browser using the link you provided in the email ..; tested and several issues still remain present and unresolved ....
    so please this is urgent or I will have to jump browsers and start using chrome .. because we work 14 hours a day 6 (sometimes 7) days a week, to get ready for the launch of our newest venture and we cannot lose that much days on browser related issues ... so please instead of putting me through week long step process .. of do this .. do that .. can you please actually look into the issue from your end .. I use firefox for so many, many years thta I deserve this kind of support .. thnx Robert

  • Sample libraries - string sections... is there something I'm missing?

    Pretty much unconditionally.... well I've only used the EXS24 package that comes with logic and recently got KH emerald, but any time I write something with multiple string sections I pretty much always start out with the individual sections. Violins, viola, cello, etc.
    I fine tune automation and velocity, and still find myself unsatisfied, so just to compare, I switch all of the tracks to the full string section, and I've never really had it not sound, well, better.
    The frustrating part is that I cant just switch around as I please because it completely throws off the fine tuning of velocity so that it sounds awkward and choppy again.
    So maybe I can see how the raw sound of just violins playing would be desireable if it were out of the context of something orchestral, but what am I missing? It just doesnt seem to blend when I use the separate section samples.

    But going off of what you said regarding strings... I guess I'm just surprised at how... unimpressed I am with a lot of the KH instruments I have played around with, given what I had heard about the library. Things like obvious timbre changes on only one note of a scale not based on velocity... the oboe seems to be recorded so that it sounds extremely breathy and more like a bassoon saxophone hybrid than an oboe, and all but like 2 of the varying options tend to have very intense vibrato that sounds very uncharacteristic of any oboe I have heard within an orchestral setting. Also it's almost like sometimes the mic switches places from note to note, because the breath of a wind instrument player suddenly becomes very audible.
    Yea, this is why, if you are really serious about this, and can justify the expense, you really need to own several libraries, and learn each ones strengths and weaknesses. Sometimes, amongst all the high dollar samples, that one oboe sample from your old mirage sampler still speaks in the track better than any other. And while that's a slight exaggeration, I think most here would agree with that statement.
    It takes a lot of experimenting before what comes out of your speakers matches what's in your head, and truthfully, I don't think that ever totally happens. You find a compromise you can live with.
    I know Kirk's stuff is among the best value for the money, but I know several folks who feel the same way you do. It's a highly subjective thing, so just because one guy gets a lot of milage out of it, doesn't mean you necessarily will.
    I'd throw out VSL as an strong contender. Do check them out. No libraries offer "Demos", as far as I am aware, because of the size of the samples. But each website has many, many demo recordings, some submitted by users like you and me. So go listen to those, and see which ones "speak" to you.

    I know they say that digitally modifying the pitch (like using one sample for a range of notes or whatever) is a bad thing, but it would seem to me that those sorts of inconsistencies are worse.
    To the best of my knowledge, the "big" boys aren't doing that anymore, because hard drive size and sample length are really not much of an issue these days.
    To sum this up, I remember reading a quote back in the mid 80's, when sampling was taking hold. Someone said
    "A sample is the right note, played at the wrong time".
    Indicating that while the pitch of the given instrument sample is the playing the right note, it wasn't performed at the point and time you are using it, or in the context that you're using it.
    When you think about how true that is, it's amazing we can get useable results at all out of samples.
    Just realize as good as it's gotten, it's a far cry from the real thing...

  • The latest version of iTunes, doesn't have the "display duplicates" option. Is there something I am missing?

    The latest version of iTunes does not have the option to locate duplicates. Older versions had an option in the drop down menus of iTunes to "display duplicates." Am I missing something?

    I cant find it either. i miss it just knowing its not there
