Since new update my games on Zynga hog all my memory and run real slow - I'm frustrated!
I updated firefox and flash as suggested and I have had problems ever since with it hogging all my memory and running real slow hanging up and constantly having to clear cookies and cache multiple times a day. I tried chrome and I don't like it. I like firefox how can this be fixed.
You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

I downloaded a new version of Windows Outlook 8 - I can no longer access ICloud for my Contacts, nor the Calendar from Outlook.
solved problem, ran MS diagnostics on outlook which found and fixed one problem. Uninstalled iCloud and all associated files (calendar, contacts,) in Outlook (could not uninstall before problem was fixed - got an outlook error message). Reinstalled iCloud and synched contacts and calendars. I'm back to where I was yesterday.

HT4623 I'm having trouble launching iTunes Store on my phone since new update.
I'm having trouble launching iTunes on iPhone 4 since new updates.
Hello Mdimbo1,
Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with the iTunes Store after updating to iOS 7.
The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
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.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the iTunes Store, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full article here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

Farm Heroes will not work on my iPad Since I updated the game
Farm Heroes will not work on my iPad since I update the game.I could play just fine before I updated it on May 1st. I was up to level 120.

Find my friends app is not notifying when leave or arrive since new update?
Find my friends app is not notifying when leave or arrive since new update?
"Find My Friends" never worked even before shel left home. And she also has a new iPhone 6 (and I have a 6 plus ) on latest software update. We tried messing with it at home on wifi and on LTE with out any progress. I'm really disappointed with "Find my Friends" App. Especially for the App been made by Apple. Hope they fix the problem very soon maybe with a new update.

my scroll wheel keeps opening more tabs every time I click on links, and right click keeps high lighting stuff since new update.
Hello BoreOne,
I'm sorry to hear that you are facing issues with your Firefox settings.
Damn leprechauns are everywhere!
It seems like the damage isn't too big and we should be able to fix it easily...
Simply reset your profile settings (delete and create new) by following the intructions in the [[Managing profiles|managing profiles]] support article and perhaps [[How to clear the cache|clear your cache]]. This should normally and hopefully set you up!
If you still require assistance regarding this issue or have any more inquiries regarding the matter, please let me know in a reply below.
If you found this answer helpful, please mark it as ''Solution''.
Thank you for your valuable time and patience, and all your interest in Mozilla Firefox. Surf safe and have a great day! -

Hello everyone,
I just updated my 3GS from iOS 5.0.0 to 5.0.1
Since the update, Itunes says that no SIM card is detected, and the iPhone says that it cannot be activated. It also obviously does not detect any network.
I tried restarting the phone several times, removing the SIM card several times, but it did not change anything, the SIM is still not detected.You do not need to keep posting the same thing over and over again.
Look to the right side of this page at "more Like this" or do a forum search. -
After the new update the FFox is now 11.0. But it's really SLOW always CRASHES and most of the time is NOT RESPONDING. I have to go to CHROME it is working perfectly.
Hey mooshi20003,
Have you tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode? Hold down "shift" while Firefox is starting up. If the crash doesn't happen in Safe Mode, you should read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
There is also a lot of useful stuff in the [[Firefox crashes]] Knowledge Base article. You might also want to look at our [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-slow-or-takes-too-long-start performance troubleshooting section].
Hopefully this helps! -
I have the iPhone 4S. Since I updated to the iOS 6 my phone keeps freezing and the apps crash all the time. Sometimes it freezes up to a minute. And there's no way of fixing that. Is apple going to fix this? I'm not the only one having this problem.
You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8.1.2, the highest you can update is IOS 7.1.2.
Unless you've iPhone 4S (looks similar to iPhone 4) -
The new update limits album sorts to album by artist year and is too limiting. How do I get the standard sort by album alone?
Click the heading of the Album column to cycle between Album, Album by Artist and Album By Artist/Year.

I have a Toshiba Satelite with a 32 bit os and since I updated my itunes the last tow times the ipad and computer will barely communicate. Many time itunes will just lock up. any suggestions?
If your iMac is an Intel CPU model, you can upgrade the OS to OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
Then use software update to update 10.6 Snow Leopard to OS X 10,6.8.
Then you can run the latest iTunes to sync your iPad running iOS 6
You can purchase OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard by calling Apple at 1-800-MYAPPLE. Ask for retail software sales and purchase a copy of 10.6 for $19.99 plus shipping. -

I transfered all my games from my iphone4s to my ipad, but the game progress is lost.... I signed on to game centre it shows all my scores and progress but when i try to play with the games, all my progress and scores disappears... can anyone help???
Hi bubbles213,
The best way to move information from one iOS device to another is to back up the device using iCloud or iTunes (or both), and then restoring the new device from it. This article will walk you through the steps:
Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device

Mac os x lion 10.7 on mac book pro not updating and running very slow
i am using mac os x lion 10.7
problem it is not updating and running very slow. How to improve?If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem. The backup is necessary on principle, not because of anything suggested in this comment. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The procedure will help to identify which such modifications you've installed, as well as some other aspects of the state of the system that may be pertinent.
Don’t be alarmed by the seeming complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out. Here's a brief summary: You copy a line of text from this web page into a window in another application. You wait about a minute. Then you paste some other text, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, paste again. That's all there is to it. Details follow.
You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken while booted in “normal” mode. If the system is now running in safe mode and is bootable in normal mode, reboot as usual. If it only boots in safe mode, proceed anyway.
Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script. It does nothing but produce human-readable output. However, you need to be cautious about running any program at the behest of a stranger on a public message board. If you question the safety of the procedure suggested here — which you should — search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them.
The script will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but it's really a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it.
If you have more than one user, and the affected user is not an administrator, then please run the script twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The administrator is the user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time. If you can't log in as an administrator, just run the script as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the built-in Terminal 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.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ($) or a percent sign (%). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter your password, the script will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important, so don't worry about it.
The script may take up to a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear in the Terminal window.
You can then quit Terminal. The output of the script will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. All you have to do is paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V again.
Please note:
☞ This procedure is all copy-and-paste — type nothing in the Terminal window except your login password if and when prompted.
☞ Remember to post the output. It's already in the Clipboard when you see "[Process completed]" in the Terminal window. You don't have to copy the output; just paste into your web browser.
☞ If any personal information, such as your name or email address, appears in the output, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
