My cmd-c and cmd-v does not work anymore. How do I fix this permanently (I have already started the MacBook up again, and that helped a few hours...)

This problem started to occur after having done an update for my iPhone. All help is appreciated! Thank you!

Hi guys,
@cor-el: getting rid of not needed parts is what I always do. Besides prefs and localstore, only the search-metadata and permissions / signons are passed along. Oh, forgot to mention the mimetypes.
No, my point is why is FF looking for those folders when there's no mentioning of these to be found in my options? Not even in de about:config ... When I state C:\ as my downloads location it's absurd to check any other folder first, which FF seems to do before giving me an explorer window showing .. C:\ as a starting point. Like my unrestricted laptop does.
@jscher2000: Even if there are pointers to those default folders, FF should not be checking those. When I state C: I mean C: (see my answer above).
No, I'm convinced this is a bug unless someone knows a way to stop that folder checking. And to be honest, the not working Browse button is the least of my problems (I use: ask everytime where). No it's the saving that is the problem. But I guess the underlying problem is the same. Saving / downloading, what's in a name ..
Guys, thanks for your help ! I can't fix a bug so I'm going to let it be. I'll rebuild my master and will keep checking of saving a website becomes a problem somewhere. Mind you, the solutions offered in kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files didn't work.
Oh well, I'll keep my fingers crossed :)

  • Iphoto 11 is frozen on finishing import.  Stop import does not work.  How do I fix this?

    I tried to import photos by dragging a group of them to an album and the import started, but does not finish.  When I press stop import, it does not respond. How do I fix this?  I think that it happened with iphone pictures, but could have been a SD card from my camera, and I ejected it before it finished since I could not get the import to work or stop.

    Force Quit the app - it's under the Apple menu.

  • My iphone 4 is disabled for 22 million minutes and the recovery mode does not work? How can I fix this?

    I have tried to do the standard recovery mode where you hold down the home button and plug in the USB but Itunes is not recoginizing the phone. How can I fix this issue?

    Hello there, Itraziel.
    Thanks for providing further clarification on your issue. The following Knowledge Base articles offer up some assistance depending on which Operating System your computer is running:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
    or
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1591
    If you are still unable to restore the iPhone, this article may provide some more information:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    Use recovery mode
    Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
    Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
    Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
    Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
    When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
    iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
    Use iTunes to restore your device.
    Thanks again for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • When I am listening to music on my iPod Touch 5th gen and it is locked I try to double click the home button to bring up the music controls, but it does not work. How can I fix this?

    So, I locked my iPod while listening to music, then pressed to home button to turn it back on, then I pressed it again twice to bring up the music controls so I could pause the song. The music controls came up, but they didn't control the song I was listening to, also the album artwork wasn't showing. How can I fix this?

    Hello,
    I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod Touch, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10sec. or until Apple logo appears (Nothing will be lost, this is just a "Hard Reset")
    Hope that helps!
    If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
    Cheers!

    The display on the 6G Nano does not rotate automatically.  It has to be done manually.  Place 2 fingers on the display in a pinch-like manner and rotate them either clockwise or counterclockwise.

  • My Firefox can no longer open new tabs. I click the icon but it does not work. How can I fix this?

    The "+" icon that opens new tabs does not open a tab.

    With Firefox version 4 and 5, the default setting is ''not'' to ask the question for saving the session. You can get back that behavior by modifying the options as below:<BR><BR>
    # In the address bar, type '''about:config''' and press Enter.
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of options.
    # In the '''Filter''' textbox at the top, type '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose'''
    # You will be presented with the entry for '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose'''. If its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''.
    # Repeat these steps for options''' browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning''' and set their values to '''true'''.

  • Recently reformatted PC. Tried to import HTML bookmarks, but nothing happens. Tried other browsers, still does not work. How can I fix this?

    Before reformatting my PC, I exported all my bookmarks via HTML file. I reformatted, installed Firefox, then tried to proceed with importing all my bookmarks. I go to the import function and choose the HTML bookmarks file and nothing happens at all. I tried using other browsers to import, but nothing happens. I am not sure how to fix this.
    I thought maybe I could transfer the HTML file into a JSON file, but I couldn't find a way to do so, even after renaming the file extensions. Could the HTML file be possibly be corrupted? I'm out of ideas on how to import my bookmarks!
    I really need to fix this, please help!

    Make sure that the backup file with the bookmarks has the correct file extension:
    * .html for a HTML backup
    * .json for a JSON backup
    You can check the type via the right-click context menu of that file and open the Properties.<br />
    If you are not sure about the file type then you can open the file in Firefox via "File > Open File"<br />
    A JSON backup will show as one long text line without line breaks and a HTML backup as a web page with clickable links.
    A JSON backup starts with: <b><nowiki>{"title":"","id":1,"dateAdded":</nowiki></b><br />
    An HTML backup starts with: <b><nowiki><!DOCTYPE NETSCAPE-Bookmark-file-1></nowiki></b>
    Add quotes ("") around the name to rename the file to the correct file extension if the current file extension is hidden or if it is otherwise not working.<br />
    Verify the file type in the Properties via the right-click context menu to make sure that the change has been successful.

  • HT1338 Upgraded to Lion. IWork does not work. How do I fix this?

    I increased the size of my hard drive to 1TB and upgraded from Snow Lepord to Lion.  iWorks 09' (keynote, pages, numbers) and iPhoto do not work.  I have used software updated and everything is current.
    Is there a patch of something else I need to do to make them compatible?

    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.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, 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.
    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. For privacy’s sake, 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 or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

    When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive.  It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas?  I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

  • When I upload photos to iPhoto from my iPhone and then press delete from iPhone it does not delete them, how do I fix this?

    When I upload photos to iPhoto from my iPhone and then press delete from iPhone it does not delete them, how do I fix this?

    I am having the same problems as this person. I see that someone said there is no way to retrieve the pictures once it gets stuck in recovery mode.
    Then further along someone said that there are data retrieval methods except they have something to do with jail breaking a phone.
    My phone is already jail broken. It was kind of a gift from the company I work for- it was a fellow employees before. He jail broke it and then it was given to me. After I got it I activated the 4 and tried to back up everything. It didn't work and "Springboard" forced the phone into safety mode. So I could use it with the old dude's apps and my contacts. I made the mistake of using the phone for wedding dress shopping with a friend. I took tons of pictures.
    After this I found out the messages I was seeing meant it was jail broken. At&t said to force restore the phone - iTunes wouldn't recognize it in safety mode. I'm an idiot and didn't realize what this meant for my pictures. It didn't work (error 1611) - thankfully. Now it is stuck in recovery mode (iTunes icon and USB cable picture).
    Can I access that media in any way? It never suceeded restoring itself so is it still there? The phone is jail broken already so is there a method I can use?

  • TS3999 I have a macbook Pro which had Mobileme. I have joined ICloud, but my Calendar does not sync. How do I fix this? I do not see an ICloud Icon on my laptop and the software is updated.

    I have a macbook Pro which had Mobileme. I have joined ICloud, but my Calendar does not sync. How do I fix this? I do not see an ICloud Icon on my laptop and the software is updated.

    This is the situation with Snow Leopard and existing iCloud accounts:
    You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
    You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
    You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
    You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
    Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point.
    Address Book won't sync: this page has a convoluted hack to make it sync which has been reported as working (and as not working by others). I've not tried it.
    There are a couple of alternative syncing services you might like to consider, though they're not particularly cheap:
    Soho Organizer can sync Calendars and Contacts with iCloud on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion. A single user licence (multiple machines allowed) is $99.99.
    Fruux syncs Calendars, Tasks and Contacts beetween a wide variety of devices (not using the iCloud server) including Snow Leopard and above, Windows Outlook and Thunderbird, Linux Thunderbird, and iOS and Android devices - see their compatibility chart (click the blue 'i' for a caveat about Snow Leopard). It's free for one user, two shares, two devices; above that pricing starts at €4 per month.
    (I have no connection with these firms and have not tried Soho Organizer, though both have had good reports and I've found Fruux to work well.)
