Should I have both Firefox 3.16.5 and Firefox 4 Beta 12 at the same time? Loaded the Beta, expected it to replace the 3.16.5, but didn't. somebody helI'm not a geek, so don't know if I should have taken off 3.16.5 first.

I have both versions of Firefox on my laptop since I decided to try the Firefox 4 Beta 12. I expected the Beta to replace the 3.16.5 I already had on there, but they coexist. I am using the Beta so I can test it, but am having a couple of issues with speed I didn't have before, and a couple of times the browser will freeze or be nonresponsive in the middle of something. Didn't have that issue before. I'm not a geek, so don't know, forgive me if this is an elementary issue.

This is the normal precedure for Firefox beta installations. They don't replace the previous versions. Also the freezing you're expieriencing probably has something to do with the Beta using the same profile as the older version. To fix this, create a fresh profile. Information on how to do that here: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing%20profiles

  • Why can i rotate screen and have sound at the same time.   Why is only option one or the other

    why cant i rotate and have sound at the sametime?  why does it have to be one or the other.   

    Do you really think it's not possible to do both and set them up the way that you want them to be set up? You just don't understand how the process works.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center if you are running iOS 7. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • Need to go into photo library to retrieve photos that technical support lost at the store.  Told to do "command Option" at the same time - than click on "I-photo"  then check the box "repair the i-photo library.... I have had two appointment at the store

    How can i retrieve my photo library that got lost by your techs at the apple store?

    First to locate your library on the hard drive launch iPhoto with the Option key held down so you get this window:
    Your library should be displayed in the window and it's location displayed below the window when clicked on.
    If that fails to locate your library download and run Find Any File to search for a file named "ThumbJPGSegment.data" which is a file common to all versions of iPhoto libraries.
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If there's a library hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.
    Once you find the library you can try to repair if it doesn't open as it should by trying this:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • One SIMPLE, SIMPLE question that the answer seem to be no whre IN PLAIN ENGLISH! What do you have to do to have two of more tabs open at the same time. Just like ANY OTHER BROWSER LETS YOU DO! Ya know....so you can drag and drop things like pics etc.

    For Pete's sake. This is not rocket sience. What more details do you want. I want two tabs OPEN at the same time so I can copy from one to the other or drag and drop from one to the other.

    You can copy text and hover that selected text with the left mouse button down on another tab on the tab bar until that tab opens and drop the text in a text field in that tab. You need to make sure that that text area is visible because you can't scroll the page. You can also tear off that tab (temporarily) to a new window and resize them to see both windows. Move the tab back to the other window once you are done if you prefer that.

  • I have an 11" Macbook Air. When I use Garageband it opens in a window so large that the bottom corner is not accessible so I can't decrease the window so that I can see the top and bottom of the window at the same time. Any suggestions?

    When I use Garageband the window is so large that I can't reach the bottom corner to decrease the window to fit inside the display so that I can see the top and bottom of the window at the same time.
    Any suggestions?

    You can reduce the window by grabbing any edge or corner.   You don't have to use the bottom right anymore.
    You could also temporarily move the dock to the left/right so you can reach the bottom.

  • Can I have 2 browsers open at the same time

    I heard from my friend that I cannot have 2 browsers open at the same time. He said that it will damage the computer. I have an iMac with the intel chip. I do somethings online that I need 2 browsers open for long periods of time. Is this okay?

    Yes of course you can. I have run Safari, Firefox, Chrome and Opera simultaneously.

  • If I have 2 tv's and each their own apple tv can I display the same program to them from my macbook at the same time?

    If I have 2 tv's and each their own apple tv can I display the same program to them from my macbook at the same time?
    for instance Keynote?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    The Apple TV cannot display keynote presentations or websites from the computer. It can display them via mirroring from the iPad 2 or better or the iPhone 4S.
    You cannot AirPlay to 2 Apple TV 2's at the same time from an iOS device. You can watch the same video, TV show or listen to the same music from your iTunes library on multiple Apple TV's at the same time.

  • I seem to have fixed my problem of randomly occuring errors in my filterwheel control. But I don't know why this should actually work.

    Hi there,
    I am using a thorlabs fw102B filterwheel. It's connected via USB (simulating COM port, that's what it says in MAX). The second device is a camera, also connected via USB. The application is running 24/7, at least that's what it's supposed to do. LabView version is 8.6.
    The LabView code I wrote for this, was never really finished, meaning I totally ignored error handling in the first program version.  That never bothered me, because the program ran for weeks and months without any problem. Whenever I had to reboot my system it was not LabViews fault, but I was changing something else.
    Recently I was running into problems with the filterwheel (after a system reboot). However, I don't understand the error in the first place: The filterwheel is supposed to change position every 15 minutes, in between the camera is taking exposures, then the data is written to an ASCII-file (only ~156 kB). At first the error occured just once: the filterwheel was set to the wrong position for about 15 minutes, which might happen, as it is not really could in counting. A few days later it was in that wrong positon for one hour, so it didn't respond to the "move" order four times in a row. Finally I didn't move at all anymore. The error message I was getting is "0xFFFFFFF unkown status code". In my opinion the communcation to the filterwheel got lost somehow. I don't know a better explantion. 
    But why should it recover after some time?
    The problem usually occured at night, when nobody is there to watch.
    I investigated the behaviour in a second setup (see attachment). There is only the filterwheel connected. Through randomly unplugging the USB or power cable I was able to reproduce 'session handle is not valid', 'unkown status code' and 'session handle lost'. The program enters the 'true case', the session is to be closed and resetted, then it shall be reinitialized. This actually works as soon as the cables are reconnected. But why?
    The close.vi still returns 'session handle is not valid', The reset.vi returns the same, but initialize.vi returns 'No Error' and the system works again.
    What am I not getting here?
    I read some threads here and somebody mentioned for another instrument/problem to use the 'reset' command twice. So I tried 'close-initialize', 'reset-reset-initialize', 'reset-initialize' but only 'close-reset-initialize' works (not surprising). Yet I still get the same errors (probe 1 and 2). Am I introducing more bugs without knowing than I fixed?
    I AM CONFUSED.

    Hello Ulrich,
    thank you for your answer. Concerning the dataflow I agree and it is what I usually do. Actually I follow the dataflow paradigm whenever there is no problem (the 'false case' in the screenshot):
    “FW102x Initialize.vi” -> “FW102x Get Position.vi” -> “FW102x Set Position.vi”.
    Whenever there is a mistake, this just doesn't work with these drivers. The sequence
    “FW102x Initialize.vi” -> “FW102x Get Position.vi”  -> ///error/// -> “FW102x Close.vi”, “FW102x Reset.vi”  ;; “FW102x Initialize.vi”
    will give me errors for “FW102x Close.vi”, “FW102x Reset.vi”  and “FW102x Initialize.vi” reporting "session handle not valid". However, if I "bypass" the instrument handles directly from the first "Initialize" to "Close" and "Reset", they will report the same error, but the second "Initialize" will work again. I can even merge the first two frames and execute "Close" and "Reset" at the same time to do so. But whenever I try something else, e.g. do the 'correct' wiring, I am unable to close, reset or reinitialize. I have to restart LabView completely, to make the vi work again. So I guess the session is still hanging around somewhere in memory, but I can't access it anymore.
    Surprisingly, wherever I put Probes on the data handle wires they show the correct "ASRL5::INSTR" (with or without correct wiring). But only the "Bypass" wire makes the vi work. Since you couldn't find the drivers in the driver network, I guess they might just run into problems, if an error occurs.
    But thanks for your comment anyway. The problem is fixed for the moment. It's just that I prefer to actually know what I am doing here instead of producing some code I'd rather not show anyone.

    No, you simply do not.  Apple does not sell insurance.
    Apple offers an Extended Warranty called AppleCare.
    Warranties doe not cover lost or stolen devices.  Buy a new one.

  • I have just signed upfor family sharing. Is there any way you can get the same app on two devices but not have to share it? My sons both want clash of clans but they don't want to be on the same village and they can't both be on app at the same time?

    hi, the app is not "shared", it works as if you bought the app twice with different accounts, only you paid it once. they should have 2 different villages since they're on 2 different devices.

  • I can't add a scene, I don't know why. I have finished making a scene and I'm trying to start a new one but the option to insert a scene is not highlighted so I cannot carry on :( please help

    I can't add a scene, I don't know why. I have finished making a scene and I'm trying to start a new one but the option to insert a scene is not highlighted so I cannot carry on please help

    you can't use scenes in html5 projects.
    that's also no significant limitation because there's never a situation (afaik) where you need to use scenes.  they are strictly a convenience for designers.
    i don't know any programmers that use scenes.

  • Problem with multiple gmail accounts. If I open two accounts in different tabs, Firefox makes them both the same, effectively closing one of them. I would rather have both gmail accounts open at the same time.

    I belong to a chorus of 100+ singers. A lot of us use gmail for our personal email. We have a google site where we share information. We log into that site as [email protected] I would like to open the chorus site in a new tab, leaving the original tab still logged in to my personal gmail account. Currently, my original tab will also get logged into the chorus account, and I will be logged out of my personal account. Why does information in one tab disturb the information in another tab? I can keep both accounts logged in if I log into one with firefox and the other in internet explorer. But I'd rather just do it with a tab, not a whole second browser.

    You can look at one of these if you want to sign on with different identities at the same time:
