Latest update causes some videos to goof

I'm running XP. During system startup yesterday I allowed an update to be installed. Now some of the live video sites I frequent keep folding and unfolding vertically like an accordian. Turning off hardware acceleration has no effect. I would like to revert to the last previous release. How can I do so?

My Antivirus is Norton Security Suite.
As a further test, I went to zaplive.tv using ie 8 and the playback worked ok (unlike firefox). However, I noticed another oddity, if I used the "About" option in the player context menu, it takes me to an Adobe page that says my player version is 10,0,22,87 (not 9.X object version number that shows up in the browser Add-on manager).
I also tried disabling the shockwave flash object 9.x, and then ie wouldn't load the video in question. Disabling it for ie had absolutely no affect on playback in Firefox, so it is difficult to believe that updating ie is going to fix firefox. I worry that then not only will firefox still have issues, but ie might also stop working.
So I hope we can undo this update if things get worse.
Also I do not find my video GEForce MX 4000 GPU listed on NVidia's site of GPUs supporting Flash acceleration. My video driver is the most current one they have. I've always thought hardware acceleration was working and active in both ie and Firefox.

Latest update causes problems on iPhone 3

The most recent update for iPhone causes serious problems on my iPhone 3. The screen size is no longer accurate; top or bottom text dissapears. Some apps are no longer useable. The speed of the iPhone dropped down to ridiculous slowness. Has anyone else experienced similar issues, and more importantly, has anyone found a solution? We just got a new Macbook Pro, the iPhone is not connecting, so we cannot remove the latest update. Kind of catch 22...

The screen size is no longer accurate; top or bottom text dissapears.
Did you happens to have Zoom: ON
in Settings > General > Accessibility >
Zoom: ON?
Large Text: ON?
If so, switch it OFF.
so we cannot remove the latest update
No, downgrading is never supported

Firefox does not recognize the last java update and some videos cannot be played and some sites do not load. What to do?

After the last update of Java, whenever checking addons, the report that is given is that the plugins "Java Deployment Toolkit 7.0550.13" and "Java(TM) Platform SE 7 U55" are outdated. Some videosites don´t load at all and some videos simply are not played. Any ideas of what goes on? (BTW, have already checked if the sites are down and no, they are not down).

Latest update causing iTunes to freeze and crash

Just curious as to why my iTunes keeps freezing ever since the latest update...it's driving me crazy!
Anyone have any ideas? My brain is out of ideas...
Thanks in advance!

Whenabouts does it freeze and crash? (When you try to open it, when you try to view video content, sometime else?)

Podcast latest update causes contstant crash

The latest update to the poor Pocast app has now renedered it unusable, it constantly crashes to the home screen, is there any way to fix this to get it back to its previous terrible self?

We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing when you open it. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.
#Press the following shortcut to get a Run window: [Windows] + [R]. This should bring up a window that contains a text field.
#In that text field, enter %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
#From that explorer window, double-click on the ''Mozilla'' folder, then double-click on ''Firefox'' and then on ''Crash reports''. Double-click on ''submitted''.
#Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to ''View'' > ''Arrange Icons by'' > ''Modified'' to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
#Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
#Paste each ID with '''bp-''' into the reply window on the forums.
Thanks in advance!
You can find more information and troubleshooting steps in the [[Firefox crashes]] article.

Latest update cause a kernel panic

Yes, I've submitted feedback. I just want to warn people. I let the updater do its thing and restart my system, then go watch TV while it updated. When I came back to turn everything off and go to bed, I have a kernel panic splashed across my 30" Apple Cinema Display. Hold off on doing the updates!!!
Doing a hard shutdown got my system back, but I'm in the middle of a big project, and I don't need to see a kernel panic at 10:30 at night. Let's see...this update caused a kernel panic, one of the last updates hosed Rosetta applications - including Quicken 2007 - until Apple came up with a patch, and one of the updates before that hosed my Airport Extreme until Apple came up with a patch for that.
Seriously??? I've been using Apple products for 29 years. I expect so much better from Apple.

I would think you'd wait for spindown then power off the device then unplug.

Latest update causing problems with my itunes update on my computer,

Have had to delete itunes on my computer to try to get this update to upload. I cannot even access an earlier version. I have tried everything from uninstalling to cleaning my hard drive and still it will not install.

ITunes update 11.1.4 would not install and I received the following error message.
"The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem".
A temporary solution was to restore my system to a date before the 11.1.4 update was applied.
This worked and I was again able to use iTunes except that synchronisation between iTunes, my iphone and ipad was frustrated. I received an message to the effect that “you need to turn on synchronisation in isync preferences before you can sync contacts and calendars.”
Further research on these boards revealed that this problem too was apparently caused by the Apple update could only be resolved by installing the latest version of iTunes i.e. 11.1.4
Thus a clean install of iTunes 11.1.4 was obviously necessary for complete functionality.
Thus I followed the procedures detailed by Turingtest2 here
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6562
I carefully deleted all of the Apple related programs and folders I could find as suggested.
I had problems deleting Apple Mobile Device Support. I eventually managed it though by variously
using CONT-ALT-DEL to enter Task Manager and then Processes and then halted(ended) any Apple process I was able to find. It eventually deleted but not without a struggle!
I then performed a clean installation as described ensuring I right clicked on the download and selected Run as Administrator.
Itunes 11.1.4 was then installed with no loss of previously downloaded material – books music etc.
Not impressed with this Apple update at all…… a seemingly very cavalier approach to customer care.

Latest Update Causes Problem with Creative Sound Card?

I installed the latest Quicktime update (7.3.1) and Windows Media Player would no longer work, giving me a message that my sound card (Creative Sound Blaster Audigy) was broken. I ran the sound card diagnostics and indeed it failed several of the the test (particularly wav files). I also tried streaming music via my XM radio subscription and that also did not work.
I reverted my system to its previous state (before the Quicktime update) with Norton GoBack, and now everything works again.
Anyone have a similar problem? Is this a bug or perhaps was there a glitch in the installation that caused this?
Thanks,
wasaguru

I'm not having that problem, but I am having a problem of my computer being locked up once it goes into sleep mode.

Latest update causes seemingly random crashes

I recently updated to the new version of 2.2. The update seemed to go without a hitch. Within an hour I had my first taste of what was to come. Listening to the ipod music (not a third party app), it just crashed in the middle of a song. It shows the apple icon and reboots. about 8-10 minutes later, it just stops playing and locks up. When manually rebooting the phone, and reopening the ipod, it crashed after the third song. It also does this while watching video(s). Seemingly at random times with NO user interaction. Pandora application rarely gets by 1 or 2 songs now. I now have trouble syncing to the appstore, itunes and mail.
The 3G reception bars now suddenly drop from full to nothing, then back again. The wireless connection is less stable. .......I'm sitting here right now watching the bars go from full to nothing at seemingly random intervals never lasting more than 30 seconds. The phone is just sitting here doing nothing. It seems to me that the crashing/reboot behavior is similar to a memory leak or something similar that can allow the phone to handle so much (I don't know what it could be since it is seems so random, yet frequent) before crashing.
I have restored the phone and tried a new install and have the exact same results. The previous update left me happy if not at least functional. I didn't have any issues as frequent as this. My phone is basically useless now since none of the applications proprietary or not seem to work for long now.
Is anyone having similar issues they could share some secret iphone handshake to make it work again, or has anyone had any luck getting through to tech support? I'm not having any luck there currently.

I suspect its most likely a Java bug.
You're best off reporting it to Sun, err I mean oracle.

Latest update creates some issues

I just got the new update and now I notice a couple new features which is causing both the 4G and wireless indicators to be on at once. Why am I using both services at once? Is there a fix?

Hi androidfreakoid,
I understand your concerns regarding the signal indicators after the software update. I have a Galaxy S3 as well and my indicators went to normal when I disabled the Caller Name ID application. Follow these steps: Settings>Application Manager>All>Caller Name ID>Disable. Keep us posted.

Latest update causes Brother 5250DN printer not to print on two sides

The latest OS X v10.7 update included an update for my Brother 5250DN printer. Now, it won't print on both sides. After printing on one side, it actually pulls the paper back in, as if it's going to print on the other side, but it comes out blank. It then prints a separate page with the 'other side's' contents. It works fine with my wife's computer, since she hasn't updated the driver yet. Any help with this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul

Have a read of this posting. These Brother users found the same symptom and were able to resolve it.

TS1398 Does anyone know when apple is going to fix the problems their latest update caused with iphone 4s and wifi????

All the sudden, as i've read many other's have experienced, I can no longer connect to wifi in my own house with my iphone4s. Nothing goes to the cloud. No matter what I've tried to fix it, nothing. Any idea when Apple is going to get their act together and get another update to fix the last update???? Anyone have any luck fixing this - it's not a wifi problem. It's an Apple issue, it was introduced to the device on their last update - what in the world are we supposed to do to fix it?

I've been on the new IOS since it was released, and have no problems with wifi.
