On trying to open a URL from an external program or a saved webpage I get an error saying "There was a problem sending the command to the program." It did not do this in the last version I was using, I am now using FIrefox 8.

It happens with all programs, including the default Explorer.exe (for saved pages).

It somehow decided to fix itself? It just worked for some reason after I said something here (well, a few hours later).

Ok, Below is what worked for me somewhat.
Okay ... try downloading and saving a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe to your PC from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Now download a trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.php
Open the iTunesSetup.exe with WinRAR, and try to run the standalone install of Apple Application Support from the AppleApplicationSupport.msi you find in there.
It works now BUT there are still problems. It is not allowing or recognizing my Cd/DVD player and i CANT burn. Looking still for this fix.

Every time I try to use Adobe Reader 10.0.1, my new tab opens, the pdf starts loading, the blue bar gets to complete, and i get an error saying "there is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again"

Firefox freezes, and i have to end it in task manager. It will though immediately work in IE. Using firefox 4.0.1, and the plugins seem to be up to date as well.

Hey guys sorry I am just getting back to ya'll, but I have fixed my problem. There was a registery key missing. I had to create the registry key EXE in acrobat and set the default string value. After doing so everything started working correctly.

Configuring the time capsule airport wlan function as "connect to wlan", the time caspule gets a correct IP adress from the other wlans IP range, but does not assign this to the ethernet ports. With Airport Express it worked!

Configuring the time capsule airport wlan function as "connect to wlan", the time capsule gets a correct IP adress from the other wlans IP range, but does not assign this to the ethernet ports. With Airport express it worked, the single Ethernet port got the IP Parameters passed through!
My setup is a Vodafon Esaybox connected to ISP. Time Capsule is not able to extend the wlan of the easybox, neither airport express can do.
Only the option "connect to wlan" is succesful.
With airport express I was able to connect my Sony Bravia TV to the lan via ethernet to stream pictures, the TV set got an IP adress from the easybox.
With the time capsule the easybox dosn't find devices connected to the ethernet ports to submit IP adresses. The TV set get another IP adress (169.xxx.x.x.) in subnet mask 255.255.0.0 and I don not now where from.
My notebook is a MacBook pro.
Any idea????
Thank a lot in advance!
Kind regards

Neverthe less, could there be the chance, that this feature could be implemnented with an firmware update?
That would appear to be a question for Apple to answer. You can make suggestions to Apple here:
Apple - AirPort Extreme - Feedback
If the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule are configured to "extend a wireless network" they will provide additional wireless coverage....and...the Ethernet ports are enabled in this type of setup.
The "catch" here is that you must have an Apple router providing the network to be extended.

If you never saved, auto save does not kick in.

There was a problem sending a command to this program. Excel with new templates.

I have recently deployed these UEV templates for Office 2013. In particular, I'm having an issue with Excel 2013. Whenever I let UEV sync settings for this application and I click on a .xlsx file, I get the infamous "There was a problem sending
a command to this program..." error message. This drove me nuts for a week thinking there was something wrong with Excel. I finally figured out it was the Excel UEV settings causing the issue. I've tried deleing the settings package file,
but no luck. I can reproduce the issue pretty easily.

MS has released hotfix for this issue. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2927019/.

I am having problems when i have minimized windows and try to open a new window it will open all minimized windows along with the new window. It just changed when mozzilla updated. It did not do this before the update. Before the update if i had minimized windows they would stay minimized when i opened a new window. Please help ,I would guess it is just a setting somewhere but i cannot figure out where the setting is. Thanks jason

Travel and detours have kept me from following up sooner. If the problem that you wrote about still persists.....
Let us go back over that Adobe document regarding troubleshooting damaged projects.
3. Delete the Application Preferences
Where you able to follow that path and delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file at the end of the path? And, after you did, did the saved/closed programs still refuse to open? If you could not carry out this procedure, what were the limiting factors that kept you from do
7. Test to see if individual media files are causing the problem.
That is an important one. How far did you get into following the instructions given in the document? If you could not complete the test, what was the major block that prevented you from doing so?
I want to make sure that we have gone through everything in that document and ruled all factors there in or out. If it was a matter of you not understanding the instructions, I am hoping that the above will channel you questions to me so that I can clarify anything that you did not understand in the Adobe document instructions.
I do not recall if I asked previously. Even if you cannot open all your saved/closed projects, can you still open a new project and save/close it? Maybe even reopen it?
Please review and consider.
Thank you.

When downloading the new version of itunes, why do i get a message saying there is a problem with the windows installer package?

When trying to download the newest version of itunes, when running the installation package, a message pops up that says "There is a problem with this Windows installer package...please contact your support personnel or package vendor." Also, the same message appears when trying to uninstall the APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE.

That one is often associated with trouble with your Apple Software Update.
