Need to reboot airport because safari keeps freezing. Multiple times per session! How do I fix this?

When using the internet on my MacBook Pro, it often freezes up and the only way that I can get it to work is to turn my airport off and then on again. Can anyone tell me how to stop from needing to do this? It is very irritating and I have taken to using an ethernet connection just to avoid having to deal with the problem. Thanks!

Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This"?

When I try to download Adobe Flash Player, it says I need to quit out of Safari even when it's closed. How do I fix this?

When I try to download Adobe Flash Player, it says I need to quit out of Safari even when it's closed. How do I fix this?

Apologies for the slightly pedantic answer, but in application terms, "closed" and "quit" are two different things. An application such as Safari can have several windows open, and each of them can be closed using the red button in the corner.
However, even after all windows are closed, the application is still running until you specifically quit it. You can tell it's still running by the small light under its icon in the Dock. If you hold your cursor down on the icon for a few seconds, you should see a pop up menu with the "Quit" option - click that to quit it. Or, click the icon once (this may launch a new window), then either go to the Safari menu and click Quit, or click cmd-Q, to completely quit the app.

My app store will not open. when i try to open it i get an error that reads "You can't open the application App Store because it may be damaged or incomplete". How can I fix this?

I am having the exact same problem. MacForums has been helping me, and I called Apple. After trying everyone's suggestions, and Apple's, no success.
My App Store app still says "incomplete or damaged." There is even a circle with a line through it on the icon. Apple said reinstall my Snow Leopard upgrade disc (not my original Leopard disc) and then run the Combo Update (like your suggestion). Did not work. I also updated the software from "Software Update". Rebooted.
I think this started after I replaced my hard drive with a SSD and moved the hard drive to where the DVD was. I wonder if the person above who had the same problem also installed a SSD?
Anyway, anymore ideas? Even Apple is stumped.
(In answer to the other post above, my Quicktime works fine.)

Just did some more reading. I was going by the icon in the dock. When I checked in Finder, there it was, fixed and brand new!! Thanks, anyway.

My iTunes was working fine, all my CDs would import fully and quickly. Now they are importing slowly and when the CDs get to the last track they don't import and the CD drive just keeps spinning without doing anything! How can I fix this?

I don't want to have to restart or reinstall my iTunes again as I'll have to redo all my playlists etc

Likely that CD then. Check visually for damage, blemishes, etc., not that there's anything you can really do about those other than return the CD.
The drive sits there and spins because it is trying to re-read the CD. iTunes has error correction which is contributing to all this re-reading, I believe, and you may be able to disable that in preferences if you aren't picky about the result.
You can also try other rippers such as Max or XLD. I know those have configurable error correction. I like XLD but it is slightly tricky to use until you find that for some reason the author has put all settings under preferences, not just the set once and forget ones.

When trying to open iphoto I get the error message "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete." How do I fix this and get my photo's back?

When trying to open iphoto I get the error message "You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete." How do I fix this and get my photo's back?

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

I have an Ipod Touch and when I activate the shuffle mode it keeps replaying the same song. How do I fix this problem?

have an Ipod Touch and when I activate the shuffle mode it keeps replaying the same song. How do I fix this problem?

While playing any song on your iPod, tap the artwork to bring up the scrubber bar and additional controls. On the left hand side is a option for repeat. You want to make sure this icon is white (meaning it is set to Off). If it isn't tap it either one or two times to change its current setting.
Any luck there?
By the way, this is the iPod Shuffle forum. Since you have an iPod Touch, you should have posted this in the iPod Touch forum.

Webkit2 webprocess exe keeps saying it has stopped working. how do i fix this

My computer keeps popping up with this message, Webkit2 process Exe has stopped working! How do i fix this problem????

Denb15,
I wish the issue was going to be as easy to identify as a system rollout! I know you must be extremely worried about having a brand new phone acting this way. Do you get this error message every time you're on a phone call? What kinds of actions prompt the error to pop up and how often is it happening? Share details so we can help find a fix!
Also, Verizon Wireless does have a 14 day worry free guarantee time frame I want to make you aware of. You would be able to exchange your current Note 4 for another of the same make/model at no charge within that time frame. After the 14 days has been exceeded we can still replace the phone if we need to, but it would be with a Certified Like New Replacement. http://vz.to/1hJXRR0 .

I'm trying to use the quick selection tool in Photoshop Elements 12 but it keeps getting stuck on minus. How do I fix this?

I'm trying to use the quick selection tool in Photoshop Elements 12 but it keeps getting stuck on minus. I've reinstalled twice and it will work for a little while and then get stuck again. When I select something, I have one shot at it and as soon as I let go of the mouse it switches to minus and I can't add anything else. How do I fix this?

When a tool misbehaves, go over to the far upper right corner of the tool options area and click the four-lined square. Choose Reset Tool from the popout menu.

Go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Settings. Then set up the iPod with your ID and media
