  • Itunes stopping working even after reinstall - help please

    I have not been able to access / watch anything stored on my iTunes on my laptop. every time I click on it I get the following message: ITUNES HAS STOPPED WORKING a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify if a solution is available.
    Can anyone help?  I've tried the QTMovieWin.dll advice but its still not working?
    Cheers

    Hi Ellenred,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like you have already done some great troubleshooting. Did you remove not only iTunes but all of its components in Windows as well when you reinstalled? When you remove and reinstall iTunes, all components must be removed in order to ensure it works properly when reinstalled. If you have already done this, please let me know. If you need to go through this process please use the information provided in the articles below.
    I am not sure what version of Windows you have so I will include articles for all versions starting with XP and up.

  • Adobe reader has completely stopped working

    Win7 Professional 64bit, Core i7, 4GB, Reader 10.1.4.
    I have been using reader for more years than I can remember. I use it
    all day, every day - there is almost never a time when Reader is
    absent from my desktop.
    BUT... Today Adobe Reader completely stopped working.  I was using it
    quite happily this morning, on a PDF which I have opened dozens or
    even hundreds of times.  I needed to switch to another document - when
    I tried to open it, (or one of about 100 others I have also opened
    many times), I saw nothing appear on the screen, the cursor switched
    to pointer/busy, and then cleared after about 5 seconds.  The only
    indication that anything happened was a blind ACRORD32.exe process in
    the task list.    I rebooted - same result. I uninstalled Reader and
    reinstalled it from the Adobe download site.  Same result.  Reader is
    simply no longer functioning in ANY WAY WHATSOEVER. This now happens
    EVERY time.

    You can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:

    Then, you may download the offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

  • How do i fix my home button it has completely stopped working after i dropped it and now its frozen on the apple screen?

    so yesterday i dropped my iphone and the home key stopped working. i had to turn the phone completely off to change screens and get back to the home page. today i turned it off to get back to the home screen and now it is frozen on the apple screen. its been like this for about an hour or so. i plugged it into the computer and it still hasnt done anything. i try to reset it but of course since the home button isnt working it wont allow me to do so.
    does anyone know what to do besides taking it to apple?

    You can try the steps recommended in the User Guide.  If they don't work bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

    I already contacted British Eurosport , it was them that suggested reinstalling the app.

  • Firefox freezes and stops responding even after reinstall

    Hi, I've been a Firefox user for a decade, despite three attempts to switch to Chrome. But this is getting on my nerves. I'm in the middle of something and suddenly the browser freezes - I can move the cursor over whatever bookmarks, menu items, tabs or content but nothing responds. It's exactly as if the entire browser had turned into a printscreen. I get no crash report afterwards, I just close and restart it. This has been going on for quite a few months now. I'm using the latest version by the way.
    Extensions I use:
    Adblock
    Colorzilla
    Diigo Toolbar
    Evernote webclipper
    Fireshot
    Pin It buton
    Video Download helper
    Wisestamp
    Lazarus Form Recovery
    And quite a few other plugins.

    Hello kutez, '''try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    '''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    '''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    ;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    also, any luck if you delete in your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Windows profile folder] the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file User.js file] you have ?
    The user.js file '''does not exist by default'''. If you create the file, forget it, if you have not create the file then delete the User.js file, to see if the problem goes away (some programs create and write in the file also).
    thank you

  • HT3131 Clamshell mode not working even after powering off and reconnecting display; external monitor goes black anyway

    After connecting an external monitor (non-Mac) to my MacBook (Mac OSX 10.6.6) w/proper adaptor, setting up to use clamshell mode as per manual, the external still goes black even after putting MacBook to sleep, disconnecting and reconnecting external and powering up again as suggested in Support. Displays are set to Mirror. Also, when I open Displays in System preferences, 2 different windows for Resolution settings appear. Where have I gone wrong? This monitor (Viewsonic) came with it's own software for setup on a Windows PC, but of course it is not being used on the MacBook.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    Hi Mike,
    Yes I followed all the procedueres....except for waking the computer using a keyboard click. For obvious reasons one is just inclined to open the top of the MacBook to wake it when the external goes dark...I did that twice, until I realized that very last step was needed to 'wake' it. It worked. Something so simple, easy to overlook I guess.
    I did leave the monitors mirrored, fyi, if I don't then all I can access from the external are the resolution settings. This Viewsonic comes pre-loaded with Windows software of it's own and doesn't quite behanve the way my previous external did, but I got it figured out.
    Thanks for your response, tho!

  • ITunes on Windows 7 won't work even after reinstall.

    I've got a friends Windows 7 PC here.
    iTunes has gone AWOL.  It keeps asking for permission to makes changes and then won't start but the process is running in task manager (and the icon has that blue and yellow shield indicating it requires elevated priviliges).
    I couldn't use the built in uninstaller as it just sits there doing nothing when I open it saying "preparing to uninstall" or something, so I used Revo Uninstaller to uninstall it and any other Apple software I could see on the computer.
    And then downloaded and reinstalled it.  Exact same problem.  Asks for permission to make changes and
    Someone suggested disabling "Apple Push" in MSCONFIG but that hasn't made any difference either.  Apparently that has to do with a process called APSDaemon.exe
    Any suggestions?  I really don't want to have to backup his whole computer and reinstall Windows and everything else for him from scratch.

    Same problem here.
    I am at witts end. I have uninstalled EVERYTHING labeled APPLE on my pc and restarted and reinstalled and I have the exact same problems.
    *Double Click* to open iTunes. *Wait* ... Nothing Happens. *Open* Task Manager. Itunes.exe *32 is running under Processes.
    Nothing is visible. Most of the time I can't even end the itunes process. I have to open up the comand prompt and type TASKKILL /IM /itunes.exe just to close it.
    Is a windows reboot the only option? I have followed all of those links the support team keeps posting and to no avail.

  • QuickTime not working even after reinstall

    For some reason QuickTime is not working in Safari 5 for a page on my website even after a reinstall of QT 7.6.6
    Yet for Firefox 3.6.6 it is.
    I added an extension ("Deanimator") for Safari 5 a few days ago, but then removed it soon afterwards.
    There is a chance this extension may be the culprit because even Firefox had QT disabled so I had to reactivate it.
    Unfortunately I don't see any easy way to simply reactive QT for Safari (and as I said... I did reinstall QT 7.6.6 and restart my computer).
    Any ideas? Is there something simple I am missing?
    FWIW... HERE (click) is the webpage that works for Firefox but not Safari.
    It is normally a popup window so it will be way off center when the link above is clicked on... but you get the idea...

    QuickTimeKirk,
    "I opened it using QuickTime...""...I don't see any "animation."
    Strange indeed since if my very first link in my first post is clicked on (while using Firefox 3.6.6 or Camino 2.0.3) the simple animation displays.
    I did open the .mov file in QT and I agree it does not animate for me either in this fashion.
    I had not viewed this page, or .mov file, in some time and when I last looked (many versions back on both QT and Safari) there was no problem.
    Again... very strange that it would animate in Firefox and Camino since when directly opened in QT it does not.
    "The html code uses the "embed" tag but yours is missing the closing tag."
    According to Apple there is no closing tag for this... and my syntax checker does not indicate a missing closing tag. Would you refer me to a URL that defines this?
    Thanks.
