It crashes unexpectedly and when I try to reopen, it says it's already running yet my task manager doesn't show it and I can't reopen without restarting

Also, since I just downloaded the new version 2 days ago, I no longer have option for additional tabs to open. Not a happy camper right now.

I bought an app and when I try to download it says I have already purchased and It will be downloaded with no charge

I bought a app on the App Store and when I try to download it says "you have already purchased this all, it will download now with no additional charge"

I had same problem. All that was next to app was the cloud icon (ie.not 'open') and kept getting same message when trying to download. I found this fix on another discussion that worked wonderfully for me. The guy who found this deserves credit:
1) Open iTunes and go to the iTunes Store
2) Click on your account ID in the upper left-hand side of the window and select account from the drop-down
3) You may have to enter your password, but will then be shown the Account Information screen
4) Look at the top of this screen for a section indicating you have a pending download and click download
5) Either install via sync or on your device itself
I just re-clicked on the cloud in the app-store on the device and it finally worked! It must have been in some sort of app-limbo.

Firefox won't start. The program is running in the task manager processes, but the application won't open. I have restarted the computer, uninstalled and reinstalled, now I am lost!!!

I have a Dell Inspiron 530 desktop running Windows Vista Home edition. Firefox was working properly just as it has for years. All of a sudden when you click on the icon, nothing appears. I open task manager, no applications show. I go to processes, there is firefox32. I kill the process and start over...endless loop. I shut the computer down and restarted. Same issue. I uninstalled firefox and reinstalled, same issue. I idon't know what else to try.

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

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 page that opens.
Step 1
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. 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 shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

I want my default to be Bing but when I try to addon it says it's already my default which is not true.

I used to have Bing as my default browser. Then, one day it was no more. When I try to make it my default browser, I get a message that says that it could not be installed because it is already my default. However, when I do a search, by default I get google not Bing.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

If there is a problem with searching via the default about:home page then try to reset the search engine used on the about:home page.
Reset the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref via the right-click context menu to the default on the about:config page and close and restart Firefox to restore the about:home page to its default.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
#Open the about:config page via the location bar
#Type in the Filter bar: mstone
#Right-click the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone line and select: Reset
#Close and restart Firefox
If this didn't help then delete the delete the chromeappsstore.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder and repeat the above.

I use Firefox to access the internet-but when I go off the internet but don't shut down, then go back on Firefox it won't open because "it is already running". Task Manager doesn't show that it is operating so I can't shut it off. What to do?

It is in the question but to repeat.
1. When I go online I use Mozilla Firefox
2. While I am doing other work, I usually close the internet.
3. If I go back on the internet and click on Mozilla it won't come up, stating that "it is already running".
4. Despite that, when I open Task Manager, it doesn't show that it is running so I can't shut it down or open it.
5. If I log off or shut off the computer, then after I log in or reboot the computer, I can open Mozilla.
Thanks from a Mozilla fan.

Where can I download an earlier version of firefox. Version 4 does not shut down properly so when I start it again it says firefox is already running. I'm very close to going back to Internet Explorere

Firefox 4 doesn't shut down properly. If I close it and reopen it later it tells me firefox is already running and I end up restarting my computer.
This is the shits

You may still have a Croatian language pack installed if you didn't uninstall a previously installed Croatian version and checked the Firefox program folder for remnant leftover files.
* "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\chrome"
If you download the full en-US version and install that version then the language shouldn't change.

Since upgrade to firefox 4.o.1 when I close it and then reopen am told fireox already running close or restart but task manager doesn't show it as running and have to restart computer to open firefox again, what's up?

Happens when I close it to get rid of info that might still be stored from current site (financial info etc) but want to reopen to continue use. Didn't happen with earlier versions.

I'm trying to upgrade ios 5.1.1 to ios 7 or higher. When I try to update it says i have the latest update.

I'm trying to upgrade ios5.1.1 to ios7 or higher as it is required to use facebook. When I try to upgrade it says I have the latest version?

If it's the first gen iPad (i.e. the one without cameras) then it only supports up to iOS 5.1.1, you can't update it to a higher version.

Firefox crashes then when I try to reopen it I get a message saying it is already open and must be closed. It is not open and I cannot close it and have to reboot. It is very annoying as it happens often.

Firefox will close unexpectedly then when I try to open it I get a message saying it is already open and I must close it first. I cannot find it open anywhere and then I must reboot to open Firefox again.

Mail unexpectedly quits when I try to open the Mail Application 4.5 and system is 10.6.8

Mail unexpectedly quits when I try to open the Mail Application 4.5.
Any ideas how to resolve this?
I have tried the suggestions already given on Lists, and nothing has yet worked...

10.6.8 is not Mountain Lion.
How big is your hard drive, and how full is it?
Did you happen to download any system cache cleaners? Those can damage its ability to function.
Have you tried repairing permissions?
Is your data backed up?
Is Spotlight indexed?
Is the Mail trying to load an IMAP, POP or Exchange account?
I've requested this thread be moved, no need to repost.

I uninstalled logic because it kept crashing. But when i try to reinstall it get to the 3rd disk and says it couldn't be installed. Does anyone know of any reasons this might be?

Also tried restoring system from backup but just does the same thing
This is where a HD clone is so important, ...
Time Machine can do nothing with/to a crashed / failing HD.
Like refilling a gumball machine with a hole in the bottom, ....futile.
At least your vital data is backed up. Look into getting a new internal HD. Very cheap fix $65 for a new HD.
If you have Apple care on your 2011 macbook, contact them for repair/ HD replacement.

I'm having problems with 8.1 and Continuity / Handoff. It will work fine for web pages, etc. but in email when I try to do it between by iPhone 5s running 8.1 and my Macbook Pro running Yosemite I consistently get an error. "Failed to Continue Activity" Cocoa Error 4609. Handoff is working for phone calls and text messages. By email just crashes each time. It was also doing it under 8.0.2. My iPhone and iPad handle this fine. It's only the MacBook to the iPhone that fails, and only on email.
