My iphoto will not load, all it does when i open it is just show a blank iphoto and won't load any of my photos that were already in there. Any way to fix it ?

Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

I just installed itunes 10 and all it does when i open it is show me the software agreement, and if I click "accept" or "decline" it closes and does nothing else. It does the same thing when i try to play music on it. (By the way, I have Windows XP SP3.)

I just installed iTunes 10 and all it does when I open it up is show me the software license agreement, and if I click either "accept" or "decline" it closes up and does nothing else. It does the same thing when I try to play mp3 files, just opens up the license agreement and nothing else. It also doesn't recognise my iPod touch when I plug it in, thinks it's a digital camera. Please help! (By the way, I have Windows XP SP3.)

I opened my iPhoto library today which was stored on an external hard drive and several of my videos now will not play at all. The weird thing is that each file shows a duration of 1 second and when I open them it just shows one frame. What the !&%$#@ Where did my original video files go?

Sounds like a good plan, you can never be to safe and having a second External HD is safer than one.
The only thing that I would do different, is setup the 3T as my TimeMachine Backup and then erase and move my Photos, Videos and perhaps even iTunes Media to the 1T. That way you will have room to backup both the Internal Hard Drive and the 1T External Hard Drive to the 3T using TimeMachine.
Take your time, study and use the > Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions if you get stuck or aren't sure how to make the move.

These are your options:
1. Restore the iPhoto library from the most recent backup that predates the issue.
          Advantages: Always works, if library damage is causing the problem and the backup is intact.
          Disadvantages: Impossible if you don't have a backup. All changes made since the backup are lost.
2. Repair or rebuild the library. Be sure to back it up first.
          Advantages: May solve the problem with no loss of data.
          Disadvantages: May fail. May take a long time if the library is large.
3. Scavenge the library with a third-party application called "iPhoto Library Manager," which you can find in a web search. From the application's menu bar (not the iPhoto menu bar), select Library ▹ Rebuild.
          Advantages: All images should be preserved.
          Disadvantages: All books, calendars, and slideshows will be lost.

hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music' then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

I can't seem to get mountain lion to download. It just sits in my dock and won't load. Tried starting in safe mode an reloading - still won't work.

Very frustrated. I can't sync my music with my phone because apparently there is a bug in the version of iPhoto I have. So I tried to update to the latest and was told it's incompatible with my OS. So I decided to shell out the $20 for Mountain Lion (even though I feel I shouldn't have to since the software I'm using isn't working). Now the download of Moutain Lion just sits in the dock and won't download. I tried restarting the computer in safe mode and redownloading, still no luck.

Edit --> Preferences --> Media and Disk Cache --> Purge. And you might wanan consider substituting any compressed audio sources with WAVs, too, to avoid such corruptions. Similarly, check your audio in a proper audio editing app. Odd sample rates, weird channle mapping and so on can have all sorts of ill effects.

Make a back up now.
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
Then:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

How can I make firefox give the focus (the cursor) to the address bar when I open a new window - as it does when I open a new tab (to about:blank)?

When I open a new tab using CTRL-T, the address/awesome bar has the focus.
When I open a new window using CTRL-N, it does not.
Can the behaviours be made consistent via setting a configuration option or key?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello wodow, please check it in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode#firefox:linux:fx27 safe mode], do you have the same behaviour ? DO NOT reset, select "Start in Safe Mode".
thank you

When I try to play a game that I bought it will just go black then go to home page but the apps that were already on there will work

Help me

Have you tried:
- Resetting yur iPod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Deleting the app and downloading/installing another copy. You will not be charged for a redownload if you use the same iTunes account.

How do I keep multiple tabs from loading all at once when I open Firefox?

How do I prevent multiple tabs from loading every time I access Firefox? These are open tabs, but I do not want them to open simultaneously every time I want to open a new tab. Then I have to minimize each one in order to access other applications on my desktop. Please advise.

Tools > Options -> General - Startup = select what you want Firefox to do on startup there
'''Blank Page''' or '''Homepage''' ''(as long as those pages aren't all your Homepages)'' are alternatives to '''''windows and tabs from last time'''''
Or as Vivek.Wilfred mentioned, upgrade to Firefox 8.0.1 where you have abother option - Don't load tabs until selected.

Google maps keeps giving "Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML" message and won't load maps

I go to Google Maps and try to enter address in search bar.
Message pops up: "Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML"
Nothing ever comes up -- map does not load.
If I append "q?=us" to url (below) (without quotes), it works.

&q=us does not work.
Starting firefox in safe mode does not work
Map loads but entire page except main menu is non interactive.
"Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML"
It comes up on google.com.au but not google.com
It happened after they added the new privacy popup with with MapGL also being added.
Disabling all cookies with Web Developer or browsing in private mode works but when settings are put back to normal it stops working.
I deleted all cookies and cleared cache but that did not help. Strange that clearing cookies did not solve the problem because disabling cookies works.
I tested with another browser and it works... but I want firefox forever.

When I open firefox the address bar remains blank after a website is loaded from favorites.

I open Firefox and the open window is blank (as it should be, because I have set my Preferences to open firefox with a blank window.
Then I select a Bookmarked website from my Bookmarks Toolbar, which opens then opens that website in the window fine.
BUT, the Address Bar remain blank. It does not display the URL of the web page that has been opened from the Bookmark. Why not? Firefox always did this in the past, but this problem has existed since the last few updates, and still does now on the latest v22.0 for MAC.
If I open another blank TAB, then switch back to the first tab, the URL of the first tab does appear. But what a pain. I shouldn't have to open another tab, then switch back to the first tab, just for the URL to appear in the address bar.
I can't believe this problem has existed for so long now over at least 2 or more version upgrades.
Please fix.

I was not able to reproduce your problem using Firefox 22.0 for OS X (running OS X 10.8).
There might be an extension at fault here. You can try and launch Firefox in Safe mode to try and eliminate possible causes.
You can aslo take a look at this page: http://mzl.la/MnSTZB
