Screen closes error message appears

I have just purchased a MacBook and have found that i often have the screen close down on me reverting to the scren saver page, then an error message appears...... help

The easiest way to do that is to erase and reformat the hard drive using Apple's Disk Utility program, found in your Utilities folder. Click on the drive in the left hand column, then choose the "Erase" tab, click the "Security Options..." button, and choose a three-pass erase. That should be more than sufficient.

When I attempt to open firefox an error message appears telling me that firefox is already running, but I can't find it running. How do I do so or in any case close the already running Firefox process?

When I attempt to open Firefox instead of Firefox opening, an error message appears saying "Firefox is already running but isn't responding. To open another window please close the existing Firefox process or restart the system.", but I can't find that process of Firefox in order to kill it, and after restarting the system there is still the problem. I have found an emergency fix to at least get online, and that is to use"Firefox_Profile_Manager" in the start menu's "run" start menu, but the
Firefox that then opens is that one doesn't carry over what I had in my bookmarks but starts bookmarks anew.

Sounds like it is hanging when you exit and later try to restart Firefox.

Can anyone help me connect my Macbook Air to a SAMSUNG TV. When I follow the basic instructions (Thunderbolt to HDMI connection) the screen on my computer goes grey and an error message appears inviting me to press any button to restart the Macbook. When I do this nothing happens. Only when I disconnect the computer from the TV does the Macbook allow me to login. The TV does not receive any signal from the Macbook even though I know the HDI port works fine. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Do I need to enable something on the Macbook?

An update...
I downloaded Apple's (rather large!) list of software updates today, and I was finally able to recognize my iPod again. I did a restore using the iPod updater from 06-2006, and all seemed to work OK. (I'm afraid to try the new one again!)
Then I tried to re-load my music library from iTunes, and got stuck. It froze up after a while and wouldn't go any further.
When I disconnected my iPod from my computer, I find 2 podcasts and nothing else, though iTunes told me it had transferred 600+ songs. Those 2 podcasts do play fine, and the basic iPod software all seems to be intact.
So -- anyone get through this connection problem and have any ideas to share??
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder.

I just upgraded my mac book to 10.6.8 and downloaded the new version of itunes. When I try to open it and error message appears saying, "The iTunes Library file cannot be found or created. The default location for this file is in the "iTunes" folder in the "Music" folder."
I have tried a few things but iTunes closes right after i click okay. Anyone know anything?

Look in your Home > Music folder. There should be an iTunes folder there and it should have a number of files and folders including one called library.itl You want to guide iTunes to that file. If you don't see that file or folder then in your next post you will have to be very specific as to what you do see or how you have your iTunes set up because that's where it should be according to default settings.

ITunes won't open if it has already been closed in the same session. No error message appears and I have already unistalled/reinstalled iTunes with no result.

My iTunes opens fine if it is the first time I have opened it since turning my computer on. If I close iTunes, however, it won't open again unless I restart my computer. No error message appears. Clicking on both the shortcut and file in iTunes folder does nothing. I unistalled iTunes and reinstalled it but the issue hasn't gone away. A virus scan has come up with nothing. I would appreciate any ideas that might help to fix this issue.

Having the same problem - am running Win 7 Pro 32 bit. Discovered that when you close iTunes task manager shows that iTunes.exe is still running and will not close unless you reboot. I have also found that after starting Win 7 that if I launch iTunes by inserting a CD, the CD plays and displays all tracks correctly. However, if I eject the CD and insert a different one neither Win 7 or iTunes recognises the CD. These problems seem to have started with the release of 10.5.2 - prior to that no problems at all. Have tried reinstalling and it does not make any difference.

macbook froze while online. hard shutdown. when it restarted, an error message appeared saying finder shut down unexpectedly containing a message box with a long list of technical jibberish. after clicking OK that it would send an error report to Apple, the same error message box appeared again and again every time OK was clicked. Now the macbook will not turn on at all

If you're able to boot, launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
Select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post "shutdownStall" or "hang" reports.
If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally 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.
Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all.
Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.

Blank screen w/error message after updates

Toshiba U305-s2812 laptop was performing fine, loaded updates and things went downhill. Decided to restore to a previous date. The restore function initiated as normal, seemed to take along time to restore files so I walked away. Upon returning screen was blank with message (0xc0000135 logon.scr- application err. failed to initalize). Everything seems to load, but screen goes blank when it should go to the logon screen. After it sits for approx. 20 mins....error message appears (0xc0000135 logon.scr- application err. failed to initalize). Also, performs the same if I attempt to boot to safemode. Pointer appears and responds to mouse movement, but there is nothing on screen to point to. Any suggestions?

0xc0000135 logon.scr- application err. failed to initalize
Logon.scr is that funny small drifting picture that Vista starts out with. It's in the Windows\System32 folder.
You can try going into the Recovery Environment and replacing the file. I can supply a copy of the file
Can you reach the Advanced Boot Options menu? Turn the computer on and immediately press and hold the F8 key. On the Advanced Boot Options menu, choose Repair Your Computer.
If you can't reach the RE this way, I can tell you how to get there another way, but you'd need to jump through some hoops.
It would be easier all around to restore the hard disk to its original state using Toshiba recovery media.
How would you like to proceed?

HT5052 hi , i cant update mi ipod touch software, a soon as the download process in finished an error message appears

hi , i cant update mi ipod touch software, a soon as the download process in finished an error message appears :" session time has expired" something like that

Disabling the computer's security software during the download and update usually resolves a network timeout error.

Ask your question.please help itunes will not launch on my computer the icon on desktop has changed to a white folder no error message appears and it appears but then disappears in task manager when the programme will not open quick time is working

please help i need to fix my itunes it will not launch on my computer . no error message appears it simply will not run. the icon on desktop has changed to a white folder and it still appears in programmes in start menu but will not open. it appears in task manager but disappears when the programme will not open

You music etc should not be affected by problems with the iTunes program, nevertheless it is always a good idea to backup your data.
You haven't said if there was any error message when you tried to start iTunes. If there was one please give it in full.
Also check to see if QuickTime works, iTunes can not work without it. If QuickTime doesn't work, it has to be fixed before worrying about iTunes.
Then restart your PC and open your Task manger and select the Processes tab.
Try to start iTunes, does iTunes.exe appear on the processes tab? If so does it disappear again or remain although the programs does not open?

[discussion moved to Acrobat Installation & Update Issues forum]

Does anyone know why this error message appears?.

I have added some new fields within the BT111H_OPPT component, view 'Details', and they are visible in the BTADMINH context node when in the component browser. I now need to perform some calculations based on the PROBABILITY field of the BTOPPORTH context node and place the value in one of the newly created fields in the BTADMINH context node. Therefore to me it would seem wise to place this code in the DO_PREPARE_OUTPUT method of the ZCL... controller class.,
My code looks like so:
* First, lets get the Probability value held in the BTOPPORTH context node
lr_ent ?= me->typed_context->btopporth->collection_wrapper->get_current( ).
IF lr_ent IS BOUND.
lv_probability = lr_ent->get_property_as_string( iv_attr_name = 'PROBABILITY' ).
ENDIF.
* Now get the Potential volume field from the BTADMINH context node and calculate value
lr_ent ?= me->typed_context->btadminh->collection_wrapper->get_current( ).
IF lr_ent IS BOUND.
lv_potvol = lr_ent->get_property_as_string( iv_attr_name = 'EXT.ZZAFL00001X' ).
The eror message given is:
CX_CRM_CIC_PARAMETER_ERROR - Entry parameter of method CL_CRM_BOL_ENTITY->GET_PROPERTY contains value EXT.ZZAFL00001X, which is not allowed
The line pointed to (19) is actually ' lr_ent ?= me->typed_context->btadminh->collection_wrapper->get_current( ).' .
Can anyone see what might be causing this issue, because to me it looks okay.
I added the 'EXT.' to 'ZZAFL00001X' to see if that would make a difference, which it did not and the same error message appears, which is odd.
My sanity is in your hands.
Jason

I have found the solution at long last!!!.
When creating the new field(s) using the AET we had been accepting the default field names, like ZZALF0000nn, which we had always done in the past. However this is the first time we've had to manipulate their data via the component workbench. Anyway, as suggested by previous posts I created new fields in the AET (in expert mode) but this time gave the fields my own names, like ZZPOTENTIALVOL, then changed the code in the DO_PREPARE_OUTPUT to use these new fields/attributes and that's it, it all then worked fine. How petty is that?.
By the way, I removed/deleted the old fields in the AET tool by clicking on the Bin icon and they are now marked as deleted, but there was a message saying that I needed to manual delete these fields. I've done this before but can't recall the transaction that is needed, can anyone help in this matter?.
Many thanks to all.
