Plugin-container.exe is causing problems, are there any fixes?

Firefox frequently stops or runs very slowly and it appears to be related to "plugin-container.exe". This was not happening with earlier versions of Firefox and it is really causing frustration with this version.
If I stop "plugin-container.exe" normal service appears to be resumed, but the program soon starts up again.
Are there any fixes for this problem or will I have to revert to Internet Explorer?

That's supposed to indicate it's your plug-ins like Flash that is the problem.
You might try changing hardware acceleration, a setting within Flash either turn if off or on.

Are there any fixes for iPad 2 with OS 8.1.1.

Are there any fixes for the iPad 2 IOS 8.1.1? I've had problems with Safari and other Apps crashing or locking up, and with extremely slow touch response. These problems have been occurring since the last update. At times the iPad becomes unusable. I have been keeping all programs closed and history and web site data cleared. Thanks for any help you can give.

Hi, dannilee,
I have exactly the same problem. The device was my favorite computer until 8.1.1. Now it runs s-l-o-w-l-y, requires endless reboots.
To improve the performamce, I have tried these:
1.Go to Setting->General->Accessibility->Reduce Motion. Turn on.
2.Reset iPad device settings using Setting->General->Reset->Reset All Settings. Its increase iPad performance little better.
3.Hold the sleep/wake button and home button upto 8 seconds. This will turn off your iPad. Then turn on iPad. Wait few moments. Do the same thing twice to solve this issue.
Solution 3 worked for me. And, I always recommend you to backup your iPad first before any action to avoid any data loss.
Hope it is useful for you.

I can hear the caller, but they cannot hear me when I use the speaker function on my iPhone4. Are there any fixes?

Basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the user guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device. Try each of these steps until your problem is solved. If these steps fail to solve your issue, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple (or an authorized service provider in your area) for evaluation.

Are there any fixes for malfunctioning airplay???

Using my iPad 3 with the latest 2012 Apple TV results in poor airplay??? Sometimes the sound is played, then cuts out. Then other times I try to mirror and no video is seen on the tv. Also trying to play YouTube videos doesn't work?
This is really frustrating as the Apple TV has just had an update and the iPad is also up to date.
Any tips/advice/fixes etc please ???

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

Appstore sluggish, iPhone 3gs very sluggish overall after update to os5. Are there any fixes?

My phone is almost useless after the upgrade to os5. Lost apps cause it didn't back up properly. The keyboard is unresonsive, app store work half way, internet is very slow using wifi withhighspeed cable. How soon will os5.1come out? Seems that 5 is very buggy. Is there any way to go back to os4?

I am also facing the same probem, suggestion/help needed. My iPhone3GS become very slow and all the apps are not responding after updated IOS 6.1.3

IPhone 4s having front camera issues with iOS 7.1.2 are there any fixes?

i started having some problems with the front facing camera as soon as i upgraded from iOS 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 the camera just freezes or turns black and i have to restart the phone in order to get it back working (at least the rear camera works when i do this) but as soon as i try and use the front camera it freezes again, is there any way to fix this?

To rule out a software issue, set it up as new device without using the latest backup. If the camera works after that, restore from the backup.
If it does not work, your phone might have a hardware problem and needs to be serviced:

Are there any known problems with firefox4 and yahoo? Ive had problems with yahoo ever since I upgraded. If there are any problems, are there any solutions?

When I check my yahoo mail, a lot of times emails will disappear, or I will click on one to read, and it will open one that is above it. Also there are times when I am on a page, and a yahoo search page will open saying page could not be found, and it wasnt even something I was doing.

You have Adware installed. Click the Firefox button, go to Add-ons | Plugins and disable '''My Web Search'''. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_web_search
Also, update Firefox to the latest version which is 4.0.1 by clicking Help | About Firefox | Check For Updates button.
In addition, update Adobe Flash via http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Here's the Adobe security advisory for Flash: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb11-12.html

How do I fix my early 2008 mac pro boot hard disk. Lost everything when it crashed hard, can not reinstal via cd/dvd drive... are there any fix get it boot from dvd drive?

I have an early 2008 MAC PRO Quad Core 3.0ghz processor. 8 Gig of rams, with a 1 Gig memory Radeon 5770 HD Graphic Card running the latest Version of Snow Leopard OS. Last week lighting struck the house take out all of my hard drives (4) thank god the surge protector mitigated the mother board from damaged, use the Parted Magic to check out the motherboard and it intact with no damage. I can boot with the Parted-magic and be able surf and post this question to this forums. I replaced a newly formatted hard drive and trying to installed OS X Mountain Lions to the new drive, but unable to have it boot in my MAC PRO DVD, I get the usual chimes during the booting processed but the screen remain blackout, but able to boot with Parted-Magic to surf the web and access Apple sites/forums.
I am not well verse in using the Parted_Magic to repair or get my-mac to boot normally so I can reinstall OS X. Any help would appreciated.
Thank you

Go to System Profile and look, does it say "MacPro3,1"?
That is 2008.
FBDIMM would be 800MHz. Did you use older slower 667MHz in yours?
You can but take a hit in performance.
Sounds like MacPro1,1.
Mac Pro (3.0GHz quad core (dual CPUs) 8GB 667 RAM)
In 2007 March an 8-core 3GHz did come out 2,1.
So just to be clear.

It was all working fine a couple of days ago. At the time it randomly shut down I was trying to use Boot Camp to create a Windows 7 area,
Whenever you want to install Windows, remove all the drives other than the one Windows goes to. And if you use a dedicated drive YOU DO NOT NEED Boot Camp Assist, unless you use XP, which really is limited and crippled (one processor, 1.9GB RAM support).
And when it freezes, your only choice is to nuke (reformat) and restore or get out that backup CLONE you made before (ie, Step #1 in the Boot Camp Guide).
Sure that whole NTFS / MBR / GUID could be an issue, but you should just have a blank drive or clone.
No don't bother Apple, they seem to not have a good sense about Windows on Mac Pro anyway.
Other than zap pram from cold boot / tried booting with NO drives inside and just 10.6. DVD - should be fine.
You should be fine iwth Windows 7 DVD and one drive, or even XP.
Make sure you take your time and reconnect cards etc properly and any cables.
Booting from OS X DVDs may not work if there is a drive with a totally shot directory or partition table. Put them in FW case and turn on AFTER OS X is booted.

Are there any fixes for ElementsAutoAnalyzer using GIGS of RAM?

ElementsAutoAnalyzer will run when I run Elements and they remain running even after Elements has closed. It uses 4-5 GIGS of RAM (not MB, GIGABYTES) and causes my whole system to come to a crawl - almost unsuable. Has Adobe come up with a fix? This is ridiculous.
I turned off all the auto analysis functions in the Elements preferences. At first I just turned off the auto-load at startup but it still ran. This is a MAJOR backup.

Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and the launch Task Manager. Go to Process tab and find find elementsautoanalyzer.exe. Select it and click end process.

Three days ago I updated my iphone 4s to IOS 7. Many of my apps disappeared and many of them will not even open. Are there any fixes for this nightmare? Can you revert back to the previous IOS 6

IOS 7 has been a nighmare. I have lost apps and the ones that are still there clearly will not open. Can you revert back to the previous version IOS 6.

I would sync with the computer
and make sure that settings->itunes & app stores-> appleId was set correctly
no ios device ever supported downgrading ios version

I upgraded to Firefox 8.0 and java script no longer works. I set the options to allow java script in the tools/options to allow java script but it still doesn't work. Are there any fixes?

I support several web sites that I developed for clients and I use java script to manage/show slide shows. After upgrading to 8.0 my scripts don't load. When I click on preview on my web development tool my page will not load the java script - nothing shows on te screen. All used to work OK and still works in IE.

Thanks for the response, Karsten,
However, no Divx 5 Component but I did have a Divx Decoder Component and a Divx 6 Decoder Component, so I tried what you suggested anyway with those but to no avail.
Still not working!
Regards,
John
