jaimeleighann, that MSCONFIG screen is saying that you've got a Qoologic adware infection, just like i've been saying (in all your other threads where i've tried replying to you).
try replying to answers to your previous posts rather than spraying new threads all over the show. your current posting technique is obviously not helping you resolve this.

As I start Firefox the automatic update tells me that Firefox will open after updete finishes. I then receive an error message that tells me the update failed. It also says to be sure there are no other versions ov Firefox running. There are no other instances of Firefox running so the error must be generating from some other issue. Need some hints so I can look further. THis happens on two of 4 computers: a desktop running W7 Ultimate and this web book running W7 Home Premium.

Remove the files in the updates and updates\0 folder:
*C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates
*(%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox\updates)
*C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\updates
*Do a clean reinstall and download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
*Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer. Do not remove personal data when uninstalling.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
You can skip the step to create a new profile, that is not necessary for this issue.

i deleted my events in iPhoto Help? The "events" are not in the trash. I did download stellar phoenix recovery but not sure what to do
i deleted my events in iPhoto Help?
You deleted them in iPhoto on your Mac?
If you do not have a backup of your iPhoto library, run the recovery program you downloaded, then reimport the folder with recovered photos into iPhoto.
You will probably have to weed out plenty of seemingly duplicates (thumbnails, previews, and original files), since the program will not be able to reconstruct your events, only find image files. -
Says Apple Mobile Device failed to start. Seems like it has something to do with MSVCR80.dll, but not sure what to do about it. Now I have no Itunes at all
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

i just bought an iPad from a friend. I think is generation 1 or 2 not sure where to look for this. Bottom line, I would like to update it to iOS7. Is this possible? It does not have the option for software update.
Identify Your iPad
http://www.ifixit.com/Info/ID-your-iPad
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.0.4. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

How to install iOS 6
http://www.macworld.com/article/2010061/hands-on-with-ios-6-installation.html
iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and antivirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
How to Upgrade to iOS 7
The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
Go into the iPad's Settings.
Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
To upgrade using iTunes:
First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
Now you are ready to begin the process:
If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
Cheers, Tom -

I need a new computer but not sure what to get, im on a budget
This may sound dorky and a little nerdy but, It is time that I buy a new computer. It has been such a long time since I have bought one, and even then I didnt make the purchase my ex-wife did. The deal is this....I am a major World of Warcraft geek. So one would expect that I know what kinda computer I should buy. Not the case. I need to know what I should look for when I am purchasing a computer strictly for the purpose of playing World of Warcraft. I dont have a ton of money to spend and I am going to get the computer from Best Buy because, well frankly, I have a lot of gift certificates for there. So in short I need a solid computer for gaming, have a limited budget and I dont care if its a desktop or laptop, all though I would prefer a desktop. Please if you have any advice to offer I would appreciate it very much.
You have bigger problems then looking for a good computer. A Destruction Warlock at lvl 70. /shakes head. LOL, just kidding. I would recommend going Affliction or Demonology until you hit lvl 80 unless you are leveling strictly through the Random Dungeon tool. Although even with randoms, Affliction is still completely capable of outperforming Destro locks until the early to mid gear levels of level 80 toons. Plus, as Affliction your mana is almost endless and there is virtually no downtime to drink and eat between mob pulls while questing. Two words: Drain-tank. Plus its.........wait a minute......we're on a Best Buy site. Hmmm....got a little bit carried away.
For a computer system, you don't really need an awesome graphics card to run WoW. Although with Cataclysm I believe the system requirements will be raised a bit with the ability to fly through Azeroth. I was actually with a customer today looking for a computer to play Flight Sim on and we found a great ASUS desktop for $499. 4 gigs of ram, with a great graphics card 1.74 Gigs of shared memory.
I, like others on here, would recommend you purchasing a desktop for computer gaming. As games grow, their requirements grow larger and desktops give you the best option for a system that you can upgrade.
I hope this helps........and at least try out my suggestion about re-speccing to Affliction. Just remember not to Clip your DoTs. Warlocks are OP.
I DO NOT work for Best Buy. I used to be a Geek Squad Agent for 2 years and this is why I am well versed on their policies and procedures, but I do not work for them anymore. My posts are my own opinions and do not represent any opinions of Best Buy. If you do not like my posts, and want to report me, you can do so by clicking this link and reporting me to the moderators.

Looking for purchase a SSD drive for my DV7-7212NR but not sure what to buy.
I don't know what will fit in my laptop. Notebooks accept 2.5" drives right? Anything else I should know? I was thinking about getting this drive:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147163
Good reviews. Good price. Good size for what I need it for.
Does it come with the cable needed to hook it up?

Hi There,
Safari, iTunes, software update iCal not connecting. Firefox is fine.
I have found some archieved discussions about this, but none that went into detail about how to fix problem using proxies - I don't really understand what they are/ do.
I went into the Proxies screen, Only one box was checked, "Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV)" I unchecked it, and made no difference. There was also some stuff written in the "Bypass proxy settings for these hosts and domains" I deleated that and nothing different happened. Have also tried some other DNS numbers, nothing worked yet.
Any suggestions?I still have no idea what was wrong with Safari last week, but I opened it today, and its all working! Hurrah!
Woohoo! I'm a great fan of things fixing themselves. Fingers crossed in New Zealand for no further problems. -
I have a Brother HL-2270DW that is wirless and it comes with an installation CD. But I don't have an external CD DRive for my imac. I have downloaded the driver online but I don't what to do from here. I suppose if I had the cd drive it would take me through it step by step but I can't.
You posted in the OS 10.3 (pre year 2000) forum instead of the OS 10.8 forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

i want to buy a mac mini
If you aren't doing any heavy duty photo editing
the base model should work just fine. I would suggest
that if you go with the base model, bump the RAM
up to at least 4gig, but get it at Newegg or direct from
Crucial or Kingston, it will be way cheaper. -
Quicktime issue/file issue/not sure what is wrong! Help Please!
Hey there,
Hopefully you can answer my question. My friend was making a slideshow on idvd, but is unable to burn a disk, and has a mini-dvi out on her computer which she does not have an adaptor for. We have a presentation tomorrow so I was trying to put the file on my computer to either burn to a disk. We have tried transferring the file via shared folders, but when we go to open it in imovie it says that it is a "write protected file". We have read and write enable for both shared folders. When we tried transferring it with a flash drive that didn't work either and we got the same error. Quicktime also fails to open it. Right now I'm on my last guess with making a disk image through idvd and attempting to open that on my computer!
Do you have any suggestions or ideas? I'm running out of ideas and really need this to work by tomorrow night! Any ideas/help/suggestions would be so greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Johnnvm, put it in itunes and converted it to ipod/iphone format and was able to get it to work. Wow, that was so much easier then what I expected!
