My firefox 26.0 crashes after a while without crash report and then I have to try a lot of times since it does not respond

Every time I open Firefox after a while a message says that it is no longer able to continue and it has to stop the program. Then it stops responding, it sops without any crash report

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

IPod stops syncing after a while, won't eject and then crashes iTunes

Whenever I try to update my iPod Classic 80GB, after 1000 songs or so the iPod stops syncing (gets stuck on a song). Then the iPod won't eject, even when dragged into trash.
Then, when trying to eject iPod or quit iTunes, iTunes crashes and has to be force quitted with iPod cable removed.
When I check my iPod it says there is no music/photos etc on it.
I have reinstalled the latest iTunes and restored my iPod with the latest version, my OS software is all up to date too.

Actually at 1200ish songs the iPod hard drive starts making some severe clicking/clanking noises. I'm guessing it means the hard drive is screwed since it's the same symptoms as my last iPod
Why does this happen? Both my iPods were about 2 years old when the hdd's started clicking, surely hdd's last for more than two years?

After attempting an Itunes update to my lap top computer I received an error message and cannot access my Itunes program or library. Is there a way to fix this without starting over? I still have I tunes on my Iphone 6 but ut does not contain all

Error Updating ITunes onto lap top. No access

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If the advice above doesn't resolve things you could try this alternate version:
iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
which is a 64-bit installer for the 32-bit version of the core application, similar to previous 64-bit releases.
Or roll back to the previous build:
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)

Firefox stops loading websites after a while

Unfortunately I can't narrow down the problem very much. Firefox just stops loading websites after a while without any obvious reasons - while Chrome or IE work, so it's not a connection problem AND I have it on at least 2 PCs. This is my environment:
Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and Pro, all important updates installed. Both PCs have 8-16 GB RAM, SSD - can't be a resource issue.
Actual version of Kaspersky Internet Security is used, Firefox is not blocked.
Firefox version 37.0.1
Some FF AddOns in use: AdBlock Edge, BetterPrivacy, ColorZilla, Firebug, Flashblock, Ghostery, Web Developer
I'm certain I don't have a virus and the issue is present on a brand new installed system as well. I don't use a proxy, DNS prefetching is disabled and IPv6, too.
It seems to happen more often when the PC hasn't been touched for 20 minutes or so (PC is not falling asleep) and after sleep modes, however it also happens just in the middle of working. I usually have 10-20 pages open (resource friendly ones usually) at once.
This also happens for websites that are already loaded. A click on reload also leads to a can't load website error.
I can't exactly say when this issue started, probably in the last 6 month with some FF update. Before it worked fine. This is becoming a real issue for me because FF becoming very unreliable.
Does anyone else experience this behaviour or has a fix for it?
NB: you may want to check the compatibility of your "None of these solve my problem" button. It might be a Chrome (41.0.2272.118m) issue but if someone's FF is not working and he's trying to find help using another browser...it might be a dead end (nothing happens on click).
Example: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/deskto/other?search=can%27t+load+websites+after+while#summarize-question

Does Firefox work normally again after exiting it and starting it backup again?
Several users reported with Firefox 36 that Firefox would eventually not be able to load more pages. One believed that Firefox was no longer sending DNS requests, which is a prerequisite to being able to connect to the web server. I don't recall that we identified the source of the problem, but in many cases, it was "something" in the settings folder.
Along those lines, could you conduct this test:
'''Create a new Firefox profile'''
''This is in addition to and does not replace your existing settings.''
A new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should come with completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run) -- type or paste the following and press Enter:
firefox.exe -P
''Don't delete anything here.''
Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
Click the Create Profile button, assign a name like April7, and ignore the option to change the folder location. Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
It might take a while to determine whether the new profile is works better than your old one. If you want to import your bookmarks from your regular profile during that time, here's how:
You can use the Library dialog (Ctrl+Shift+b or "Show All Bookmarks") to access the Restore feature. The trick is knowing where to find your bookmark backups in your regular profile. After clicking Choose File... you can paste this into the file name space and press Enter to drill down to your profile folders:
%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
The semi-randomly-named folder that has your last backup is usually the one ending with "default". Click into that one, then into the '''bookmarkbackups''' folder. Here you can pick the most recently updated file to restore.
Important: restoring a bookmark backup wipes any bookmarks currently in your active Firefox profile and replaces it with the contents of the backup file.
I think it's also reasonable to install AdBlock Plus and Web Developer, as those, by themselves, are unlikely to be the source of this seemingly rare problem. But I wouldn't add all your extensions at once to the new profile.

My iphone 5c crashed after updating to IOS 8.02 and now i don't have anything from the last 3 months. What do I do?

My iphone 5c crashed after updating to IOS 8.02 and now i don't have anything from the last 3 months. What do I do?

Don't worry about that. iPhone stuck in recovery mode always happens when you update the iOS on your iPhone. There are two ways to solve it.
First is is to put your iPhone in DFU mode.
Step 1. Turn off iPhone
Step 2. Hold down the Power and Home button.
Step 3. When you see the Apple logo, release the power button but continue holding the Home button down.
Step 4. Open iTunes and wait for it to tell you that it’s in restore mode.
If DFU mode can't solve the problem, I'm afraid the only solution is to try some 3rd party software, like iPhone data recovery or something like that. You may simply try the tutorial here: How to Fix iPhone that is Stuck in Recovery Mode.

Aspire 6920 crashes after booting correctly - screeen zig zags and freezes - any ideas to help plse?

My aspire 6920 crashes after booting correctly - screen zig zags and freezes - any ideas to help plse? This does not happen in safemode which I am working in now - I have seen a list of dowloadable drivers on the acer site but not at all sure if I should download any. If laptop is really on its way out I will have to let it go - but I would appreciate any advice to extent its life, Thanks

Many thanks - relieved that it can be done but I am very unconfident that I can do this - is the display driver the display adapter in Vista? Not at all sure how to install new driver from Acer site - Could I use 'Drivers for free' download - I tried to set up an account with them after seeing their free download on CINET but not able to from 'safe mode' and laptop crashes when I try to do anything ( after about a minute ) in ordinary mode. Any further advice welcome, thanks

Firefox 4.0 freezes, crashes, closes, changes screens, does not respond, and runs 8X SLOWER than 3.6.

Firefox 4.0 is the WORST browser I have ever seen. It freezes, crashes, closes, changes screens, does not respond, and runs 8X SLOWER than 3.6. Tasks I used to do in 30 minutes, now takes me 40 minutes or more. I went back to 3.6 and immediately had a tremendous improvement.
Mozilla needs to get rid of this load of lies about a new crap program, and go back to the 3.6 version. Version 4.0 is WORST than any other program I have ever seen.

The slow / hesitant scrolling problem seems to be an artifact of the database Firefox uses to keep track of where you go, what you do, etc. It uses sqlite databases which get fragmented over time.
There are several fixes:
Some are add-ons and work internally, such as Vacuum Places (search the addons for it).
Some are external. Speedyfox is one I just tried, and found to work quite well. I think it did a better job than Vacuum Places, but requires Firefox to be shut down before it can work properly.
Find Speedyfox using a web search.

Ipad 2 upgraded to iOS 8.0.2 and the cellular signal doesn't work. Have to restart the unit to work with cellular signal. After a while it goes off and no service indication appears.

Ipad 2 upgraded to iOS 8.0.2 and the cellular signal doesn't work. Have to restart the unit to work with cellular signal. After a while it goes off and no service indication appears.

iPad 2, Since upgrading to iOS 8.0.2 the cellular signal indicates I do not have a SIM card. Monday spent hours on the phone with Apple support, backed up my iPad, reset all settings, reloaded my iPad and it still tells me I don't have a SIM card. Tuesday went to AT&T and got a new SIM card on the advice of apple support. It worked perfect until this morning and the NO SIM CARD notice reappeared. Never ever had any problem until the upgrade. I find it inexcusable that Apple refuses to address the issues they caused, iOS 8.0.2 is the Ebola of iPad 2 world. I dont have any cellular service after wasting two days trying to address and fix a problem Apple is responsible for. It's obvious Steve Jobs is no longer running the company. Furious & fustrated. How does Apple expect anyone who uses an iPad 2 for work, to remain a customer who will return to their products?

When i select the "Full Screen" option in video streams (like youtube, veoh, anything like that) i can do that one(1) time second(2nd) time the screen goes blank and can only exit it with the escape(Esc) button and then i have to restart firefox and again i have my one "Full-screen Ticket"

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Finder DOES NOT Respond after Restart, Or Shut Down

I am running an iMac G5 on OS X 10.5.4, After a shut down or restart, Finder does not respond, The only thing on my desktop is My HD and Chosen wallpaper. I can launch Apps from the Dock, but not folders from the dock, Not Downloads folder, Documents Folder, Just Applications, which is weird because they are in finder too! Mail starts up when I log in so I can access Mail, I use Firefox, When I click on it in the dock it starts up no problem, after a while Finder does respond, I get all my icons back on my desktop and can access folders. I have Cleared System Cache, Browsers Cache, I ran Disk Utility and REPAIRED Disk permissions. No help. Short of RE-Installing Mac OS X, What Should I do? Is this happening to anyone else??

I am having the same problem!
I have tried the following: deleting the com.apple.finder.plist, deleting the com.apple.sidebar.plist, I have reinstalled the 10.5.5combo update, I have deleted all of my photoshop preferences (possible solution from another thread), and it is still doing it!

Firefox takes 6 minutes to load and then does not respond so what should I do?

After starting Firefox on my Mac (10.8) it takes 5 to 6 minutes to appear. A minute or so later the "Bookmarks and History system will not be functional because one of the files is being used by another application" message appears and Firefox either does not respond or responds very slowly to various mouse clicks and such. For example, I wanted to disable all plug ins and when I clicked on Tools and Addins it took three minutes for the tab to open and after 20 minutes still nothing had appeared on the tab. I've tried restarting Firefox, restarting the Mac, resetting Firefox to the default settings, starting Firefox in safe mode, renaming the places.sqlite file, uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling from a fresh download, performing a complete uninstall and reinstall in which I remove the Firefox folder from the Application Support folder after uninstalling, and relocating the plugins folder. I've tried just about everything in every Firefox support article that there is and nothing works. Any suggestions would be very helpful.Thanks.

Bloody Hell, I install Firefox 4 beta 11 and nothing happens home page loads, and thats it, firefox does not respond

I run 3.6.13 I tried to install beta 4. 11, it downloads and installs, it opens the home page, but that's it, the throb er works but Firefox does not respond, i mean like in nothing, it is dead, you click anywhere on the toolbar, and it is like a dead dog.

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

Lumia 920 seldom does not respond while in sleep m...

Hi,
I encountered the same issue along with another abnormal condition too. Phone turns into locked state and the screen stops glowing (blank black screen), indicating idle state. It doesn't respond when I press unlock button. Also it does not respond for Camera, and Volume buttons too. But, when I connect it to a PC in that state I am able to browse the phone normally via PC only. Phone still remains buggy. As a work around pressing volume-keys + power key + camera key simultaneously restarts the device and resumes to normal state. However, previous state of phone isn't restored i.e., device starts as it were normally restarted.

Sorry, couldn't find any place to post this. It seems that there is, at least on my phone, a semi-reproducible bug that stops the volume control from working.
Steps to reproduce (from clean phone, ie. just freshly booted, no remnant IE tabs):
1. Turn on phone.
2. Open music+videos (Xbox music) app. Play a song that is locally stored on the phone.
3. While the music is still playing, open up an Internet Explorer tab and navigate to youtube (m.youtube.com).
4. Play an HD movie file. I played Peter Jackson's "The Hobbit" preview #9. Your previously playing music will stop playing.
5. After a few seconds, stop the youtube video playback by hitting the Windows button.
6. Go back to the music+videos app. Play a song that is locally stored on the phone.
On times that the bug shows up, the music plays at a fixed volume. Using the volume rocker will cause the volume display to increase and decrease, but the actual volume will not change unless you change the volume to 00/30, at which point the sound will mute. If the bug doesn't show up, repeat steps 3 through 6 until the issue shows up. You don't need to reboot in between attempts.
Interestingly, volume control still works if you go back to the youtube video. The issue shows up when using the loudspeaker as well as when using headphones. If nobody else can reproduce it, we can start trying to figure out if it's certain music file types or something that cause it. Diagnostic information below:
Model: NOKIA Lumia 920 Carrier: AT&T
OS Version: 8.0.9903.10 Firmware revision number: 1232.2109.1242.1001 Hardware revision number: 1.0.0.0 Radio software version: 1.0.202041.3 Chip SOC version: 8960

I've had the same problem. The screen won't blank during a call (like the proximity sensor isn't detecting my face/finger/hand). I keep hanging up on people with my ear. I've taken to locking my screen before putting it to my ear but anytime I get another call / text / voicemail / calendar notification / alarm while i'm on the phone (which happens a lot still) it lights the screen up again and makes it where i'm able to hang up with my ear.
I've factory reset, and had the phone replaced TWICE already. I'm on my 3rd Lumia 920 (and they all have the same issue!) This didn't happen until the most recent firmware update...so I think it was a problem created when they were trying to fix the other proximity sensor issue where the screen stayed on black all the time during a call.
Rebooting does fix the problem temporarily, but it always comes back. I'm tired of hanging up on people and hoping for a new model device from AT&T but they're giving me **bleep** at the moment.
TLDR: Factory reset, replacement devices don't fix the problem. It's a firmware bug. I'm on my 3rd 920 with the same issue. Extraordinarily frustrating.

Photoshop does not respond, once after startup!

Hi there,
Recently, i have bought a design standard CS 5.5, after installing and using for quite some time. The Photoshop CS 5.5 does not respond whenever i want to open any Photoshop file, once after startup?
This issues has only occur in Photoshop but not my other adobe products.
Hope to get some help!

Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance etc.)?
