On occasion I will have 13 plugin-containers.exe launch right after I start Firefox typicaly there will be none which is what I expect since my startpages do not have any apps. Why is this?

Compaq laptop with 500MM memory
Startpage(s) is Google and LinkedIn logon screens
Disabled all but Flash and Java
9 out of 10 times (ish) FF launch's with 0 plugin-containers.exe
When 13 launch startpage will not load
When startpage does not load I reboot, start FF, and usually don't have a problem.
After hours on the computer it becomes unusably slow and there will be 13 plugin-containers.exe
I know this computer is under powered but I only use it for mail and LinkedIn. Replacing or upgrading memory is not an option for me.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Why does an advertising page automatically pop up in a new tab right after I start Firefox?

In the last few days, whenever I've started Firefox my home page loads normally, but then a new tab automatically opens up with an ad, sometimes in the form of a system warning. Today's ad was from Snap telling me my Real Player was out of date. This is very annoying and alarming. Has Mozilla started distributing ads this way?

Why is my Creative Cloud desktop app telling me I don't have any apps installed, when in fact I do?

Just noticed this forum so thought I'd post my question in here too...
So, I [think] I just downloaded the latest CC desktop app/manager and when it finished etc and opened up, it's now telling me that I don't have any apps installed. I do, I have PS, AI, InDesign etc etc etc.
Why is the new desktop app wrong all of a sudden? Why isn't it recognising what apps I have downloaded on my computer?
I've just installed PS 2014, expecting it to tell me 'you've already got this on your computer' but it didn't, I just carried on with the install as if I didn't already have it [it doesn't appear to of doubled up]...why isn't it 'synced', what am I missing?
Thanks in advance

uninstall your cc desktop app, clean and reinstall per, http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html

My ipad has suddenly stopped connecting to the internet. The settings have not been changed. Why is this?

My ipad has suddenly stopped connecting to the intenet via my home wifi system. The settings have notbeen changed. why is this?

The first thing to try is to power down your modem and router for about 30 seconds, then repowering by plugging them back in.
Also, if that doesn't work, on your iPad you can try going into settings/safari/clear history/clear data and cookies.

I have songs re-downloading into my library which i have already purchased. why is this happening?

So i opened my iTunes and it asked my to log on which i did and then i had a whole album downloading again which i have already purchased. why is this happening?

Yes. you should keep your media in iTunes, and indeed you should also keep a backup of your library as well. if you have the device set up for manual management then the content would remain on it when deleted from the library, but you would have no way to restore the device if there was a problem.

Hey Raffiecat,
Thanks for the question. If your iPod is setup to manually manage content, you can add content from multiple libraries:
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1535
When manually managing content, you can add content from multiple libraries to your iPod or iPad. Even when manually managing music, some content may be available from only one library at time. This includes all content on iPhone and video content on iPod and iPad.
You can also learn which content you can import to your new computer from your iPod:
iTunes: Transferring media from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1209
Or, if you still have access to the previous computer, you can transfer your iTunes Library:

TS3899 my emails stored in separate folders have disappeared. Why has this happened?

my emails stored in separate folders have disappeared. Why has this happened?

If they are 72 character they are probably not corruption.
lets try something install this addon https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/
Instructions here http://chrisramsden.vfast.co.uk/3_How_to_install_Add-ons_in_Thunderbird.html
Create a new folder and select it.
Point the import export tools as the file through import of an MBOX file (that is it's file type) and see if it can import from the file. There is more than one type of MBOX file and the import tools appear to read through some issues Thunderbird can not.
The Import Export tools appear on the Tools menu (alt+T) once installed

My iPad have dark spots, a blue, Like some lights are broken...Does Anyone have any idea why this happened?

Does Anyone have any idea why this happened?

Did something happen to it like sliding off a table or something similar? You might want to consider making an appointment at your nearest Genius Bar and have them look at it.

Does anyone have any idea why Facebook is lagging on my ipad? I have closed out all open apps and nothing changes.

Does anyone have any idea why Facebook on my ipad is lagging badly, I have closed down all other apps and nothing helps.

As long as your pad isn't doing other things,( and you have already shut off everything else..) then the issue is in the connection from you to whoever you are talking to. How good is your wifi speed? And the person at the other end. There are a lot of transfers of the signal from you to them, and you are sort of at the mercy of all the spots in between.
Do a speedtest to test your speed, and maybe give the call a try from a different place, like a Starbucks ( as long as their connection is not throttled)

My iPad is suddenly not loading any apps. When I click on an app, the screen flickers to black and then back to normal, but will not load the app. This is ALL the apps, not just one. Have tried rebooting, to no avail.

Was a Restore one of the things tried.? [Attach the iPad to your computer and in iTunes click on your device. On the Summary page click on Restore and go through the process. Be sure to click YES to Restore from a previous backup.]

The AirPort Extreme should work fine with BT Infinity (as it works with Virgin Media).

TS3274 my ipad will not download any apps and if I press some apps I already have (ibooks or itunes) I get a blank screen

my ipad will not download any apps and if I press some apps I already have I just get a blank screen

Try and closing the app (app store in this case) and switch it back on and then download. If it still doesn't work, then give the IPad a rest and try again later.
