P55-A5312/Classic 8 start/Start menu icon not responding

I have a P55-A5312 laptop running on Windows 8. I have the Classic Start 8, and recently the start menu icon hasn't been responding when I click on it. It worked for a bit yesterday but now it isn't working again.
Two days ago, I tried a power reset. That did little if anything.

Sally, try reinstalling Classic Start 8.

Start menu icon & taskbar is gone

My start menu icon & taskbar is gone. I cannot find any way to restore them. Customize shows nothing for putting them back. How do I do this?

I was up too late and not thinking at all. Please forgive me for this last message. The question just has no meaning in Firefox. Thanks for being here.

Slow start up and not responding Firefox 3.6.13

Slow start up and not responding when I open Firefox 3.6.13. As long as 1 minute. I tried in save mode and it doesn't seem to happen. I used McAfee before and now use Norton IS with Real Time Malwarebytes. Still the same speed opening up, so the virus software is not causing the problem I think. I disable a lot of the add-on and still the same problem. Any suggestions?
Vista OS

If other softwares runs fast and smooth it's obvious that it's a Firefox-problem.
Probably because of a corrupt profile.
I have done a "checklist" you could follow here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/667207#answer-124643
Regarding slow start up, it's a common and old problem.
Not all FF-users experience it as a problem, but I used to belong to them who suffered.
If your cold start up (the first start after a Windows boot) is really slow, but a warm start (the second time you restart Firefox) is much faster - then I think I can help you.
Try my own simple solution here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/762446#answer-119951
I run on Win 7 64-bit and on Firefox 4.0 betas, but that doesn't matter as it works also on older Windows and Firefox versions.
Regarding your anti-virus software. I have tried the most of them. The best tradeoff is in my opinion Eset Smart Security (NOD32).

Apple (Finder) menu do not respond

I make a search but could find anything related to this specific trouble.
It has happen already few time (3) after download or update a soft (QT) Apple/Finder Menu does not respond anymore to function SLEEP, RESTART and SHUT DOWN.
I have repair permission (no result), run ONYX 1.5.3 (no result), Disk Warrior 4.0 (no result), eDrive -TTP 4.1.2- (no result)...
The Mac (almost) never stop or put in sleep to let utilities like Onyx and TTP check/repair automatically on night.
Since I thought it should be a corrupted preference file, I moved on desktop com.apple.finder.plist, com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and restart.
The two first time I did that, Finder was working again normally. But this time not !
I also try disable Application Enhancer 2.0.2 for testing and also kill the finder from Activity Monitor (an advise), through away again com.apple.finder.plist and com.apple.systemuiserver.plist.
At restart, still no response at menu Sleep, start etc...
Any idea what could I try now to solve that ? It's so boring !

Hi cldjr!
Which of your Macs are you having a problem with? The iMac or the iBook?
What size is the Hard Drive, and how much space is available?
How much RAM is installed, and is it original or added?
By all means, run Repair Permissions, as Dimaxum suggested, which should be run from Disk Utility, located in the Utilities folder, while booted from the Startup Volume, not from the system disc. Instructions posted below.
In addition, if you are able to startup from the system disc, run Repair Disk. Instructions posted below.
If neither of those corrects the problem, reinstalling the 10.3.9 Combo Update, may correct the problem.
When completed, run Repair Permissions once again.
TO REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON THE STARTUP DISK
1.Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and select the startup disk in the left column.
2.Click First Aid.
3.Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions. (I never "Verify". Just run "Repair".)
Rerun RP until the only messages reported, are listed here Spurious Permissions Errors Using: 10.3.x
When "Repair Permissions" is complete. Quit "Disk Utility".
THESE ARE THE STEPS FOR USING DISK UTILITY TO REPAIR YOUR HD
1.Insert the System Install disk, Mac OS X CD-ROM disk, or Restore DVD disk, then restart the computer while holding the C key. Use the System disk, of the OS, that is currently installed.
2.Once started up from CD or DVD, on the Menubar at the top of the screen, choose Disk Utility from the Installer contextual menu for Panther, or Utilities for Tiger.
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
3.Click the First Aid tab.
4.Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5.Select your Mac OS X volume, if necessary.
6.Click Repair. If DU reports errors it has fixed, re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported.
7.Repeat steps 5 & 6, but select the Hard Drive this time. It's usually the first listed with the manufacturer's model number. Make note of the S.M.A.R.T. status.
8.When finished, select Quit Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
9.Select Quit Installer from the Installer menu.
10.In the resulting pop-up window, choose restart.
11.After the computer has restarted, you can eject the CD.

Ok, I'm having this problem also.
Is their an easy way to install libx11 and or remove libx11-xcb? When I try to remove/unistall libx11-xcb pacman will not remove because it is depended on by other programs. Last time I ran accross something like this I removing the package and everything that depended on it with one pacman command, then one by one I had to reinstalled the packages that had depended on it....
I have no problem doing that, but just wondered if there was a better way.

Firefox won't load when using desktop/start menu icons but loads when starting off links in emails

When I try to start Firefox by the start menu, desktop or any other icon Firefox opens but then freezes and won't respond at all.
If I go to an email and then click on a link than Firefox will open and then load as normal and I can then go about using Firefox.
This has only be happening for the last few days and I have tried all the trouble shots and nothing has changed.

I Have this problem too. won't even start when dbl click the .exe file directly either. but a link in another app or email works fine. I have tried all the stuff here and uninstalled and reinstalled countless times. Using new profile, disabling Norton firewall and antivirus for the installs, only thing that worked was going back to v3.6. and a real early thunderbird too (it was also crashing on starting) Was fine for about three weeks then updated them, The went in stages not all at once and was fine till the newest group of versions. then went back to crashing. this time backgrading did not work. I installed the newest versions Firefox & Thunderbird many more times and by accident found that fresh after a install could open TB first and click a link in a email and FF started ok.
but still will not start from desktop or windows explorer
It is ridiculous to have to open another app to click on a link you don't want to get to where you do want. What is the difference in the links.
ks
also would not start in safe mode or a completely new install.
V.17.0 is the FF thats installed now and at least works as long as I don't try to open it
from desktop or windows explorer, more than a little nervous about going to v.20.

Desktop/Start Menu Icons won't stay away...

Ok, here's my dilemma. I am very meticulous about my desktop Icons and my start menu organization... I keep a quick launch Icon for iTunes, but no start menu or desktop icons... however, since I've upgraded to iTunes 7, every time I restart iTunes it reinstalls the icon and the start menu folder, and I cannot find an option to disable said icons... it's REALLY annoying me, as was the (seemingly) corrected stuttering issue... this is really a disappointing new iTunes upgrade... I'm very surprised that apple would rush out such a shoddy product...I haven't tried syncing my iPod yet, I'm afraid to... I just hope that my new 80 gig will work fine once I get it...

iBod,
OK, that seems to have done the trick. I had to play around with the grid spacing – there seems to be a setting somewhere just right of the middle of the scale that enables icons to be positioned almost at the L/H edge of the desktop.
Thanks for your help. One of those ultimately unimportant but nonetheless annoying little issues.

Lost start menu icons and not listed in right click open with option +more.

Weird. I need help. Quicktime 7.3.0.70 only--Start menu lost it's icons in the quicktime folder. When right clicking video files, the "open with" option no longer displays quicktime as a program. And lastly, open an avi file or even mpg and the program stops responding without even getting to play the file. I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times but can't seem to fix these issues. Can anyone help? Thanks. This just seemed to happen out of the blue.

I also have lost the icons for Quicktime in my start menu under Windows XP. The icons actually work when you do click them but the icons are not loaded. Everything functions fine and it's the newest version of Quicktime installed. I also have the newest version of iTunes installed. I ended up manually adding my own icons on the start menu as I've uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime several times to no avail and even attempted to flush the windows icon cache. No go. This just started happening recently.
It's not happening on my WinXP Pro laptop however, although I've yet to upgrade to the latest version of iTunes+Quicktime.
*Right-Click Open With Menu still functions properly and the icon image is appearing correctly in that menu.

Start Menu Configuration not being saved using BootCamp in Windows 7

On a couple nearly identical MacBook Pros (ordered and built within the last couple months) I've encountered an issue where my Start Menu configuration is not being saved using BootCamp in Windows 7. Only the 64 bit version was tested, I don't have a 32 bit handy.
"Stickying" icons on the top of the shortcuts seems to hold, but changing the display to small icons, adding "administrative tools", menu displays from opening folders to showing lists, or even just telling it to not highlight newly installed programs are lost on a reboot. The changes do appear to work at first, but again, are lost on reboot.
Fwiw I'm using the machine in an Active Directory environment. If you need any additional information or further details just ask.

IE11 favorites 'pinned to start menu' bug - not all of these sync between Surface RT and Surface 2

answers.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/forum/surf2-surfgetstart/not-all-of-my-favorite-websites-that-were-pinned/
Recently bought surface 2, originally pinned everything on Surface RT in windows RT, later upgraded to windows 8.1 RT
Noticed only some of my favorite websites that were pinned to start sync'd over to the Surface 2. They were also out of order, but still in the same section of the start menu
Didn't get anywhere on the other forums. Any tips here that might help?
How does the start menu sync work?

I'm pretty sure both of my surface's are already trusted devices.
I sign in to both of them every day.
First, the sync is not instant. There should be a way to force the sync... like a sync button.
I tested this by moving some pinned things around AND changing the start background and then waiting for the other one to catch up with the start menu changes.
The Journals / website pins to start are definitely bugged between the two devices. Not all of them sync. I'm now in the process of doing a work-around. Instead pinning them to a favorites bar folder AND the start menu... until this is resolved.
It's pretty annoying and hope that Microsoft is looking in to it.
EDIT:
More info about the bug. I re-pinned the website to start on the Surface 2 (which didn't originally sync over from the RT). Now when I move it around on the Surface 2, it moves the same website, but different name on the start screen on the Surface
RT.
So it is detecting that it is the same website pinned, but the names are not syncing over. It is like it is hidden, although it's not like there is a box missing... it re-organizes / collapses the order down to appear that it isn't missing multiple
boxes.
EDIT 2:
When working on the work-around, after adding the website to a favorite bar, then going to the device that didn't sync, opening the page, then re-pinning it to start on the bugged sync device, it will insert the pin in the exact same spot on that device,
even if you name it something else - you'd think it would go to the end, but it knows where it is supposed to go... even though the sync is bugged.
I ran the troubleshooter linked here, but it just made a log. I put the result in the other forum:
answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windowsrt8_1-desktop/not-all-of-my-favorite-websites-that-were-pinned/bfb697fd-70f0-4cd4-ba26-9e838bb51493">answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windowsrt8_1-desktop/not-all-of-my-favorite-websites-that-were-pinned/bfb697fd-70f0-4cd4-ba26-9e838bb51493

Dreamweaver CS3 menu icons not displaying

I just recently reinstalled my OS X and CS3 Suite with the original CDs because there were some issues with Illustrator unexpectedly closing before it had even opened the desired file. The reinstalls went without problem on all applications in the suite except Dreamweaver; the application menu icons are now replaced "broken image link" icons, and my ftp connect button has disappeared as well.
Here is a screen shot of what I'm looking at in the Dreamweaver interface:
http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e120/wbelyea/Screenshot2011-04-28at123001PM.png
I have tried repairing/reinstalling the application by itself and the entire suite, but I am still getting the same result, and only in Dreamweaver.
I have also tried clearing the .plist file and cache, but that hasn't helped either.
Has anyone heard of this happening before? I've had a difficult time finding anything similar on the forums.
Thanks in advance for your help!

The volume Hugonaut HD was found corrupt and needs to be repaired.
Error: This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk.
[could this be the cause of the issue?]
Yes that could definitely be the root of the issue. Put your OSX disc or disc that came with your Mac and boot up to that. Run the disk repair utility from the menu at the top of the screen (you don't need to re-install OSX). See if it can be fixed.
And just a friendly reminder, make a backup of really important data before doing too much more.

MDSD 2.1 application starts but does not respond

Hi,
I am having a problem with the DSD application on a mobile device.
I have loaded the:
JVM
DB2e
MI
MDSD 2.1
onto the mobile device (the mobile has been restarted after each application has been loaded)- the backend has been confiereged using the configeration guide.
When I start the application in MI by selecting the MDSD button the mobile device shows a processing icon (like egg timer) but progresses no further and does not exit this state.
In addittion I cannot locate any error logs that identify why the application has appeared to stop.
Help on this would very much be apprechiated!
Thanks James

ITunes starts up as 'Not Responding'

iTunes was working fine a few minutes ago, but now when I try and start it up it is not responding. When I click the icon to startup, my screen just goes white. When I go into Task Manager iTunes is not responding. I cannot minimize it, but I can use other applications on the taskbar.
EDIT: It seems to be fixed now, I just tried closing it and opening it over and over again.

HT3964 Urgent Help needed! iMac starts but will not respond

Last night I was dragging photos onto a disc and accidentally (I have no idea how!) dropped 6500 photos onto the desktop. This would take an agr towait for so I rebooted the Mac. Since then it has not responded at all. I have rebooted several time and left it overnight but I think its Ram is not able to cope with it all. I can get it powered up and all the icons appear but not desktop items appears and I cannot open anything. It is as if the computer is frozen. Please help as I have one day to sort these photo discs out to present to my step daughter for her 21st! It's pandemonium here!
Thanks for any help.

Oh yes, files on the Desktop consume far more resources,as each one is a special Qurtz window... LOL.
Do you have another admin account you can log into?
If so try a Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), if not...
