Safari causes my computer to crash and I have to restart

I have just started having problems with Safari about a week ago when I did the software update. About a minute after I'm in Safari, my computer screen freezes and a huge grey bar comes over saying to restart my computer. Just wondering if anyone knows why it would do this. All other browers work just fine, but I like Safari the best. Thanks.

    Please do not worry. You can just download it from Creative Cloud Help | Install, update, or uninstall apps.
    You have to activate it with your Adobe ID.
    In case the CC has been activated two time, you will have to use the option to deactivate the CC from previous install .This prompt will appear when you will try to activate the CC. Once you choose this option it will allow you to activate the CC on the new machine.

  • My old computer ( PC) crashed and I have a new PC now but I want to start synching my contactings and stuff onto my new computer. Itunes says it must wipe my iphone before it can synch. Is there a way to keep my contacts?

    Create a dummy contact on your new PC in Outlook.  In iTunes, elect to synch your contacts with Outlook.  You will be prompted to "merge" your contacts.  Once done and all your contacts are on your computer in Outlook, you can delete the "dummy" contact.

    Are you using the same ID for homesharing on all devices.
    By the way shared libraries don't show up under either 'Music' or 'Libraries'.

  • Firefox is causing my imac screen to go blank (crash) and I have to restart. Most of the time its random, but recently it did it everytime I finished listening to an audio file online. Is there a solution for this?

    Firefox is causing my imac screen to go blank & I have to restart. It's been happening randomly for weeks now. I haven't been able to tie an action that causes it. Firefox is open while I work in other adobe software. Recently it has done it every time the audio file finished that I'm listening to online and that makes me think it's tied to Firefox. Is there something I can do to fix this? For now, I am going to quit firefox while I work and see if that doesn't improve my situation for now.

    Does it still happen if you disable all plugins?
    Did it start happening after a Firefox update or a plugin update?

  • My FaceTime crashes and I have to restart the iphone 6 to be able to use it.. Any ideas ?

    i Haven't been able to use my iPhone 6 FaceTime feature consistently since I bought the phone. I have to restart the phone for it to work.
    Anyone having the same problem?

    Howdy ZEDA,
    If I am understanding correctly, you must restart the iPhone to use FaceTime, everytime you want to use it. I would start by quitting all the running apps on the phone first:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that reset the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Firefox crashes when I load any youtube video on the latest version, it not only crashes firefox but my whole computer goes blank and I have to restart, why is this?

    Backstory: There are two possible events that could be causing this
    1: At some point I may have followed a ''Tinyurl' link that consquently lead me to a youtube video, to which youtube worked perfectly fine before hand, and this is where i witnessed the first crash. Theories into whether this link, previously stated, may have done something to my system have been thought about, but the fact that youtube still works on the latest Microsoft Internet Explorer seems to present the idea of a virus or an error redundant. I own the latest Macfee antivirus software and Ccleaner(running the registry check) and have run them complete with disc defragment and scan disc error recovery along with an additional malware scanner. Nothing seems to have come up on anything. After doing all this, my last resort was System restore and this seemed to solve the problem, mainly because i had an earlier version of firefox. therefore i resisted updating for aslong as possible whenever it told me to update. but the otherday i thought i'd risk it again thinking it may have been a problem alot of people have been having and it would of been fixed, but sadly it hasn't. this lead me to google the problem and was advised to start firefox on 'safe mode' as there may have been a confliction between add ons or plugins with youtube or some thing like that, but sadly that hasn't worked either. The plugins i had installed with it were the ones firefox has told me to get, or recommended and the only two addons i had on firefox was Adblock plus (fanboy subscrip) and Noscript.
    Details of what actually happens: go to a youtube link, video loads for about 2 seconds(both video and audio), screen freezes, and flashes maybe once with some small lines across the bottom half of the screen horizontally towards the right corner, then the screen goes blank and makes my laptop dorment, but still running, thus I restart my system.
    Sadly now when I system restore there isn't a point far back enough before this problem. So its either i downgrade(which seems to be the only option) or simply stop using firefox, as internet explorer works perfectly fine. however running firefox with no scrip and adblock plus is the ideal browser customisation, which is why this is rather annoying.
    so number 1 was the tinyurl theory and i must admit i was abit foolish to follow such a random link, but whats happened has happened.
    2: basically there is a major disfunction with the latest firefox that has to with the addons i have included onto firefox and this seems to be causing a terrible effect on my system.
    in a nutshell: firefox worked perfectly before upgrading to the new firefox and before i followed this link, the rest of my system is completely normal and virus and error free or so it says, Other browsers seem to work also. safe mode does not cure the problem.
    Running on a customised Dell laptop, which is pretty midrange-toprange and hasn't been active long, so it has the general HD video card thats included in all Studio 15 Dell laptops.
    any help appreciated.
    cheers.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Safari, App store keep stalling pages and I have to restart them.

    If I press a link or use a mouse gesture, the page freezes and the apps buttons dont work. Waiting for a patch.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Firefox is either constantly crashing or it won't start after it caused my computer to crash

    Firefox has caused my computer to crash and after starting back up when I tried to open Firefox it just gave me multiple crash reports then it wouldn't even give me that after awhile.

    Hi dwennon,
    Thank you for your question. Unfortunately it is hard to give support steps without an crash reports. However since Firefox is not starting I would recommend trying to start it in Safe Mode:
    *[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    You can also try to start Firefox with a new profile from the cmd.exe:
    # Open a cmd.exe or put cmd.exe in the Start menu
    # Paste this:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p
    #Hit enter and when you see the manager pop up, click create new profile. Enter the name and open Firefox
    If then it continues to crash please submit the crash report ids: Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.
    #Press the following shortcut to get a Run window: [Windows] + [R]. This should bring up a window that contains a text field.
    #In that text field, enter %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
    #From that explorer window, double-click on the ''Mozilla'' folder, then double-click on ''Firefox'' and then on ''Crash reports''. Double-click on ''submitted''.
    #Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to ''View'' > ''Arrange Icons by'' > ''Modified'' to get the most recent files at the top of the window.
    #Open the most recent 5 files with a text editor and copy the IDs.
    #Paste each ID with '''bp-''' into the reply window on the forums.
    Thanks in advance!
    You can find more information and troubleshooting steps in the [[Firefox crashes]] article.
    Looking forward to hearing from you :-)

  • Importing Video to iMovie 11 Causes Entire Computer to Crash

    Hi. I must say up front that I am not very Mac saavy, so I apologize in advance.
    I am trying to import video from a Canon Vixia HFS200 camera in to my iMovie 11 on my iMac. I'm running OS X version 10.6.8. The other details are in the error report that I've pasted below. When I turn on the video camera, I select sync then select "Computer/Printer" for USB connection type. It will then open my iPhoto and upload photos, and then it will open my iMovie (if not already open). It can transfer to iPhoto just fine. However, when it opens the transfer window in iMovie, it stalls with an empty transfer screen and then I get the gray box of death telling me that my computer has crashed and I must re-start it.
    I would appreciate any advice on this issue. Thanks!
    Here is the error report I received after the last crash:

    According to the link below I got from the Canon Canada website, apparently there is mentioned software to retreive images and videos from your camera.
    http://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/7/0300004027/01/IB66_EN.pdf
    Anyhow, since you had it working before with iMovie 11, I am suspecting that it somehow got corrupted when the mounted volume (your camera) somehow got disconnected due to inadequate battery power.  Which was why Canon recommended people use an AC adapter for this or a fresh battery before a major transfer of movie clips.  When mounted volumes disconnect abruptly for whatever reasons, iMovie 11 goes into beserk mode trying to restore that connection resulting in crashes or slowdowns.
    To restore iMovie 11 back to where it was.
    You need to delete iMovie's plist and cache files, 2 files located in your Home/Libary folder
    com.apple.iMovieapp.plist (document)
    com.apple.iMovieapp        (folder)
    After this, you can either do 2 things.  One is run disk repair utility and execute repair permissions on the drive that iMovie resides (probably your main boot drive) or download a free utility called OnyX which is a free OSX maintenance software to do that plus some extras including clearing caches, which sometimes are the causes of system crashes. 
    It is available from http://www.titanium.free.fr/index.php and it will help repair permissions and clear caches.  Please download the appropriate version for your OSX (Snow Leopard).
    Once that is done, reboot your computer and run iMovie 11.  Connect the cable to the camera and computer and do your import.  Make sure you have a fresh charged battery on your Canon.  This should work.
    Regarding Apple Care.  The easiest way to deal with this is deal your issues with a Genius at the Apple Store.  They will help you with the registeration of Apple Care.  Just because you bought Apple Care does not necessarily mean you are registered and you should register it as soon as you got the system and Apple Care together.
    Apple is a good system, but in the quest of making the system super friendly, it can sometimes be daunting to get it working again because unlike the PC, the interface itself makes it challenging to do low level stuff.

  • My iPods are Causing My Computer to Crash!

    Lately all of my iPods are starting to cause my computer to crash when I plug them in. It doesn't do it every time. But when it starts, I can't fix it. I have restarted my computer, reset all of my iPods, and tried different USB ports and the problem still persists. Right after I plug the iPods in, a blue screen flashes for a second and then the computer restarts. Any ideas on how to fix this problem. It is frustrating! Help

    if you have an HP printer try disconnecting it

  • Yosemite causing my computer to crash randomly

    I've had Yosemite for around 2 weeks now.  At first I wasn't experiencing any problems with the new operating system.  Problems first arose when I had a few USB devices attached to my computer.  Then about a week ago my computer (Macbook Pro Retina 15") screen randomly went black however I noticed it was still outputting power to my USB devices.  I tried waking it from what I assumed to be sleep but it wouldn't wake up.  I tried to restart but it wouldn't let me until I closed the screen and lifted it back up again.  Over the past week I've been using third party applications such as Audacity and Vectorworks and it seemed like using these applications would cause the computer to crash.  Two day's ago I experienced one of these crashes and when starting it back up again the computer would crash on the initial loading screen (Apple logo and loading bar screen).  After spending 30 minutes trying to get my computer up and running again for a meeting I simply gave up.  Yesterday however I was watching a movie on iTunes and my computer again went dark on me leading me to wonder if it has nothing to do with the applications I'm using but that something is causing my computer to crash after a few minutes of use (15-20 minutes).  Anyone have any solutions?
    Whenever I restart my computer my computer recognizes that there was a problem because it displays the window "Your computer was shut down due to a problem would you like to reopen applications" (Paraphrasing).  And occasionally I'll get a prompt asking if I want to send a diagnostic report to apple which I've been doing.

    How do I deactivate a license from a computer that crashed and can no longer be accessed? I cannot use the software on my new computer because of too many users.

    "Contact Us" takes me back to "Need help?", which eventually directs me to this forum in the first place.
