  • "Itunes has stopped working" every time

    So recently I have been using itunes and a moment after it loads up I am faced with the window "itunes has stopped working", every time. I have tried doing stuff with QTmoviewin.dll, messed around with QuickTime, deleted anything that may conflict with Itunes (including bonjour). I have turned the internet off and ran it, but to no avail. I have literally tried every trick in the book, looked on all the forums and nothing seems to be working. The crash always happens when I open it, the bar at the top seems to be downloading something, gets to Never Gonna Give You Up and says "Determining Audio Volume". Then it crashes. And I can't get to it quick enough to stop it. So I really need some answers, but I would like to keep uninstalling as a very last option. And try not to refer me to another thread because I have seen nearly every one. Please help me. Thank you.

  • Acrobat 8 Professional "has stopped working" every time I close a document.

    Some time ago I had a virus infection but was able to clean my computer. Before that date, Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional was working fine but since then, every time I close a document, the program closes down with the message "Acrobat 8 has stopped working". Windows will look for a solution and never finds one.
    Probably, with the virus, one of the Acrobat 8 files must have been corrupted, but I have not been able to find out which one or how to repair it.
    Anyone with a similar situation who can point me to the solution?
    Or should I just reinstall Acrobat from scratch?
    Thanks, Hubert

    Thanks, Bill,
    Tried this but my Help does not open/show the option Repair.
    Online support goes to an error page...
    Do you have/are there other repair options?
    Thanks.

  • So, my ipod touch 4th generation has stopped working. every time i plug it into a wall or an outlet, it will regester that it has been plugged in, but it will not charge, and trurn on. does anyone have any suggestions? thank you.

    my ipod touch has stopped working. I will plug it into a wall, or computer, and it will register that it is plugged in, but it will not charge and turn on. does anyone have any advice? thank you.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Firefox crashes at completely random times, sometimes when I have tons of tabs open, sometimes when I have just one open. Also, Vista tells me "Firefox has stopped working" every time that I close it. This started about 3 days ago.

    It happens completely randomly. Also, when I tried wearing a persona recently, it crashed after 10 seconds. The browser still crashes when I don't wear it.

  • "Adobe Premiere Pro CC has stopped working" Every-time unless I disable 2 of my graphics cards.

    Whenever I re-enable either of my 2 graphics that it doesn't seem to like it gives me that error right away when it tries to start up.
    Here is my Speccy info: http://speccy.piriform.com/results/YidTg7uD20BVpMUkaIZ0vfg
    Any help getting Premiere to work without having to disable those 2 graphics cards would be great, I'm useless without all my monitors!
    Thanks,
    Chris

    After the Premier Pro CC update in early December, I was unable to start PP at all. (The subsequent upgrade didn't help.) During the startup process, the program would crash telling me that I needed to update my graphics card driver.
    After a month -- about ten hours of remote operation of my computer by Adobe techs --  working with Adobe Support (knocked upstairs three times), they determined that the newest version of PPCC does not accept a dual graphics card configuration (it doesn't know which one to choose so determines that both cards are invalid).
    Their solution was to revert my machine back to v7.0 and fill out a "Bug" report. I am to wait until they fix the problem before I allow an upgrade.

  • I definitely have put this under the wrong catergory but i don't care, I was wondering why everytime i click on a video to play it says: Windows media player has stopped working

    Ok, so I made a video with Bandicam, and every time I click on it to play it (it is saved as an MP4), it just says: Windows Media Player has stopped working. Then it gives me two choices: Close the program OR look online for a solution. I REALLY want to
    post these videos, but I can't. If anyone could help that would be great!

    Hi juderocks14,
    Please first take a check with the other Players and see if they could play the MP4 file normally. If it can't be played, which means it might be corrupted. You may ask at the Bandicam side, or save the files again.
    If issue insists, take a try with the Troubleshooter (For Windows 7, 8 and 8.1):
    Open the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter
    Fix Windows Media Player video, and other media or library issues
    Or you may try to turn Windows Features on or off to reset Windows  Media Player:
    Turn Windows features on or off (Before turn it on again, please remember to reboot first)
    More reference:
    What happens if I turn off Windows Media Player?

  • Thinkvantage "access connections windows wireless service" has stopped working

    My new computer is a  T400 running Windows 7 (lenovo disk installed after purchase) .
    While it still connects to the internet through the Windows(?) "open network and sharing center the Thinkvantage Technologies "access connections windows wireless service"  has stopped working.  It worked fine for a while (4-6 weeks).
    Any ideas on how to get it started again?  
    Thanks

    Thank you for your reply.  I'm just not sure what "it" to uninstall or where to get the new "it" to download.  Would you mind adding those details for me?  I appreciate your help

  • Windows desktop gadgets has stopped working

    As of a few days ago my desktop gadgets have stopped working.  When I start Windows they appear to function normally for a minute or so then the error message "Windows desktop gadgets has stopped working" appears.  Sometimes there is a second attmept to launch the gadgets but it fails in the same manner.
    Worryingly for the general robustness of Windows 7, performing a System Restore to a time before the problem arose did NOT fix the problem. 

    I have found this solution and worked perfectly for me, you might want to try it out!
    I own no credit over this!
    Thanks to " Ramesh Srinivasan   "
     Is your Windows Sidebar (Windows Desktop Gadgets) crashing after adding a third-party gadget, with the error "Windows Desktop Gadgets has stopped working" or "Windows
    Sidebar has stopped working" (Windows Vista) at every start? You can stop the offending gadget from loading by editing the Windows Sidebar Gadgets settings file. Here are the instructions, which apply to Windows 7 and Windows Vista.
    If Sidebar.exe process is running, you wouldn’t be able to write to its settings file. Launch Task Manager (taskmgr.exe), select the sidebar.exe process and terminate it if it’s running.
    Click Start, type the following path in the Search box and hit ENTER.
    %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar
    (You can type it in the Run dialog as well.)
    The above location is where the desktop gadgets store their configuration information, in a file named Settings.ini
    First, make a copy of Settings.ini
    Double-click Settings.ini to open it in Notepad.
    Configuration information for the last installed desktop gadget is usually located at the end of the INI file. Using the PrivateSetting_GadgetName line as the hint, locate the corresponding [Section #], select all lines underneath
    and delete it. Trim any blank lines that may have resulted from the deletion.
    Then, move to the top of the INI file, and delete the Section# line that references the offending gadget. As you’ve removed the entries in [Section 5], also delete the following line:
    Section4="5"
    Trim any blank lines that may have resulted from the deletion, and save the Settings.ini file.
    Right-click on the Desktop, and click Gadgets. This starts the Sidebar.exe process and shows the gadgets listed in the Settings.ini file.

  • Starts to load homepage, then Windows message: "Firefox has stopped working" All this after a Firefox update

    Directly after an update, Firefox will no longer start. It begins to load my homepage, then fades away with the Windows message "Firefox has stopped working"
    Looking at Norton security history, I see it blocked plugin-container.exe about the time the update was being downloaded.

    I don't know if this is exactly the same problem, but here's what happened to me:
    One day when I opened Firefox I got a prompt for updates. I got upgraded to version 3.6.16. That was over a week ago. This morning, I opened Firefox, got a prompt for updates, clicked ok, and I ended up upgrading again to 3.6.16. Norton gave me a notification about some file being used by fewer than 100 people and having "medium risk", but I wasn't able to take any action, just read.
    Once that upgrade went through every time I tried to open Firefox, it'd pop up, I'd click no to "Do you want Firefox to be your default browser" and then it'd go white and freeze up. I'd get a message from Windows that there's a problem, Firefox has stopped working, it will be closed. No information was sent regarding the problem.
    When I'd open Firefox I'd see two tabs: one about the upgrade to 3.16.6 along with an invitation to upgrade to version 4, and another being my homepage to yahoo.com.
    I also have Internet Explorer, so I opened that, went to Firefox's website and downloaded version 4. So far that has taken care of the problem~I can use Firefox again.
    However, I did have a couple small difficulties while downloading version 4. Right off it would not immediately start running. That was blocked by my Norton. So I had to click on "click here". Also during the process I got a message about two add-ons being incompatible, so they were disabled, and no updates could be found. They were: Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant 1.2.1. and Norton Toolbar 4.6.
    I worried it was a virus but it seems like more of a compatibility problem involving maybe Norton? I have the 2010 version and haven't upgraded to Norton 2011 yet.
    Anyway, like I said, so far version 4 is working fine, but I thought I'd pass on the incident.

  • My power button has stopped working is there any other way of taking a screenshot

    My power button has stopped working is there any other way of taking a screenshot

    If the power adapter is already plugged into your computer, the AC power cord is likely to spark as you attempt to plug it in.  The power adapter is designed to shut down when a potentially damaging situation occurs.  The "sparking" can cause over-current and over-voltage protection circuits to turn the power adater off.  When this occurs, you should unplug the power adapter from the wall, unplug the power adapter from the computer, wait 15 seconds, plug the power adapter into a properly-grounded AC wall outlet, and then plug the DC output cable into the Mag-safe connector.

  • Why does my safari stops working every time I try to swipe back to previous page

    My safari stops working every time I try to swipe (multitouch) back to previous page? There's no spinning beach ball or anything, but the page just stops responding altogether. If I close the non-responding page fast enough the other pages remain fine, but if I just leave the non-reponding page as it is the entire app become non-reponsive and need to be forced quite. I'm running OS X 10.9.1 on a late 2012 MacBook Pro Ret. Anyone having the same prob?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

    My iDVD program stops working every time I share the slideshow to it to make a DVD

    Share from where, iPhoto? How many photos are in the slideshow?  How much free space do you have on your boot drive?
    Try this basic troubleshooting fix :
    1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
