Recent firedfox update immedately cause break in connection between computer and printer

about 2 weeks ago Firefox offered an update. I clicked to start this. right after the printer failed to respond to the computer and a message said: check cables (done) restart computer(done) check firewall - I don't know how to do this. I have a McAfee contract.
Could this update have caused the problem? was this update offer legitimate or a virus?

here is the same problem
i cant switch between vc7,8,9...only between 1 and 7.
when i switch to vc8 or 9 only comes nothing but a blank black screen.
there is no problem on vc1 to vc6, login screen works there.
gdmflexiserver command doesnt works, same blank black screen.
but when X is not in work all virtual consoles works without problem.
ive searched everywhere for this problem but nothing works.people have recommend same things; gdmflexiserver etc.
i think it is a problem with X server,  maybe a bug of this version.Mine is xorg-server 1.5.3-4.
Any?

  • I am having problems connecting my imac to a Kodak printer wirelessly. This was previously working fine. The printer states it is connected to the home network but the connection between computer and printer has been lost/ cannot find printer.

    In addition, I contacted kodak support and they wished to take control of my computer in order to rectify the problem. I did not allow this as I was worried about security . Can anyone tell me whether once you allow someone to take control of your computer, then it is a security risk. What protection does my imac provide ? Thanks. 

    I think you can do it on a one time basis, & not allow after that.

  • Temperamental Connection Between Computer and External Hard Drive

    Recently added an eHD to handle my music and it seems to work fine for the most part, well sort of.....
    When I put the computer to ‘sleep’, it fires up with the connection to the eHD intact and I go about playing around. But if I need to ‘force quit’ iTunes, or ‘re-start’ or ‘shut down’ or ‘log out’ of this gizmo, the connection is lost. Usually I am reprimanded for an improper disconnect, but not always. On a few rare occasions the disconnect has occurred out of the blue; on these occasions I always get a reprimand.
    However the disconnect occurs I have to unplug the eHD(firewire) from the computer and from the power source, and re -plug the eHD, in reverse order, to get that little icon to re-appear on the desktop.
    What have I failed to do so that this gizmo won't reject the eHD for any reason?

    Does the external drive get its power from the USB bus or does it have its own power brick? The later are usually less temperamental but I'm not sure that a self-powered powered drive would help with the force-quits.
    The root cause of your trouble may be the programs wanting force quits, not the edrive, unless that ONLY happen when the edrive is connected. If you could eliminate what is causing you to force quit, then the type of drive might become a moot point.
    May be worth posting in the forums for the software that's requiring you to force quit.

  • No connection between computer and Ipod.. Very strange

    Hi,
    (i'm typing this message for a friend of mine)
    A couple of days ago I bought a new Ipod video 30 Gb.
    I installed Itunes on my laptop and sync. it with my Ipod.
    I also uploaded some songs.
    Now I installed Itunes on my computer and tried to sync it with my Ipod. but for some kind of strange reason my Itunes cannot find my Ipod.
    when I looked in Explorer I can see that my Ipod is connected but it will not appaer in Itunes.
    I connected an other Ipod (Ipod Video 60GB) and that one appaers in Itunes.
    We contacted the local Apple store where I bought it, but they told us to format and reinstall the computer.
    is there maby some other way to solve this.

  • Wireless connection between computer and HP Officejet 6600 e-All-in-One Printer.

    I just bought an HP Officejet 6600 e-All-in-One Printer - H711a.  I want to have a wireless connection between my computer and my printer in order to place the printer in a different room. The instructions say that I need to give the name of my wireless network. Do they mean that I need a wireless internet connection? I absolutely don't want to go wireless on the internet. How do I go about this?

  • Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Can someone please tell me a simple but effective method for burning a slideshow to DVD? Now that the connection between iPhoto and iDVD no longer exists, I can't figure out a way to get there with an acceptable quality result.

    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago. 
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

  • I want to use my IPOD Classic 160gb for notepad entries in addition to the music and books I listen to. It is set to "Open ITunes when connected to computer" and "manually manage music and videos". How can I do that without losing some of the features

    I want to use my IPOD Classic 160gb for notepad entries in addition to the music and books I listen to. It is set to "Open ITunes when connected to computer" and "manually manage music and videos".  How can I do that without losing some of the features of those two?   I just want to add a feature.  Thanks

    Settings>Store (or iTunes & App Stores if you are running iOS6)>Apple ID. Tap your son's ID and sign out. Sign in with your ID and password.
    You shouldn't lose the music, but if you try to update any apps that you bought with the family ID, you will have to use that password that is linked with that ID in order to update.
    Avoid downloading past purchased content with the old ID if you can since you will associate the iPad with the old ID for 90 days and you will lock yourself out of your own, new ID for that period of time. Read more about associated devices in iTunes here.

    Hi raydela,
    I understand your calls aren't being transferred between devices.
    Check out the troubleshooting in this article.
    Get help using Continuity with iOS 8
    If a call doesn't transfer to your other devices, or you don't see the Handoff icons
    Make sure that your devices are using iOS 8 or later by going to Settings > General > Software Update.
    Check your settings:
    Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn on Wi-Fi if necessary.
    Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth if necessary.
    Make sure your iOS devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network by going to Settings > Wi-Fi and comparing the name of the network each is on.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option which is revealed in the iTunes app on your iOS device by tapping the more button at the bottom of the screen.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.
