STP Crashed - AIFFs there, but nothing inside

I rarely have SoundTrack Pro crash while recording, and the few times that something has happened, I've been able to go to the record folder, and reopen the .AIFF files without a problem.
The other day while recording a multi-track conversation, STP quick without any error messages or warning. Thinking nothing of it, I checked the record folder to see if the .aiff files were there. They were and each showed the same file size (427.6MB). However, when I attempt to reopen the files in STP (and iTunes, and Soundboard, and Windows Media Player) the files contain nothing. This is odd as there is something there - 427MB worth.
My guess is the aiff files are corrupted in some way, preventing any of the applications from recognizing the files.
MY QUESTION
Anyone know of a solution to get these files to reopen?

Yes, more than likely the files are corrupted.
You might try Wave Editor, by Audiofile Engineering:

you haven't lost anything, it's virtually impossible to delete your Zotero library by accident.
You may just need to show your add-on bar (View --> Toolbars ---> Add on Bar).
To check if Zotero is disabled, go to Tools--> Add-ons --> Extensions.
Make sure to check for Zotero updates, you may need the newest version (2.1.10) for FF6 compatibility.
As a general piece of advice, if technical problems make you frantic, don't perform major software upgrades in the middle of a project. Also, support for Zotero is better on the Zotero forums than here.

Theres something wrong with my mac! Help! It said that it had a virus and then the browser wouldn't open! I tried to restart my computer but it wouldn't work, so I held down the power buttron. The startup screen is there but nothing else happens'!

So yesterday I went to do some work on my laptop.
My laptop is from about 2005-2006 so it's pretty knackered. Everything was going just fine but then my Avast! Security software notified me saying "VIRUS DETECTED" so I tried to go on the avast application but it wouldn't open. I tried to open my browser but the icon just bounced and stopped and them nothing happened after! So i clicked on the apple sign and clicked shut down. Then the system wouldn't shut down. So i held down the power button causing it to shut itself off. The next day I opened the laptop and turned it on. It made the healthy turning on noise and I can hear the fan working perfectly fine. The startup screen is showing. This is an all grey screen with the Apple logo in the middle and a spinning circle in the middle, the circle has been spinning for over 10 minutes now and I do not know what to do. I use this laptop for literally everything and I cannot possibly afford to replace this . I am hearbroken as I know that there is a possibility that I will no longer be able to use this laptop.
I would be extremely grateful if someone helped me as I am truly devastated. :(
HELP PLEASE

Firefox won't display at all, comp thinks it's there but nothing.redid plugins also, no help. thanks, Steve

Hi, firefox was working fine for the longest time and suddenly, it just wouldn't display on my screen. The icon is there, it looks like it's trying to load and nothing happens. I uninstalled it and reinstalled, didn't help. Did the updates on 2 plugins, that didn't help either. It seems the comp thinks firefox is up and running but there's just no moniter display at all. I know this as when I do a comp clean up, it will tell me to shut down Firefox first before continuing. Not sure why this has happened suddenly. Any help and instruction would be really appreciated. Thanks, Steve. I've tried everything I know.

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Bookmarks are there but nothing happens when you click on it, no information under properties, happened after going to firefox 4 then back to 3.6

I have the menu and all of my bookmark names are listed but when you click on them nothing happens. I right click and went to properties and nothing is filled in which explains why clicking on it does no good. Is there a backup of this information and how do I retrieve it. Windows XP Pro operating system. I have checked profiles and still only default user which is my only profile.

this is total bullshit. so frustrated with this nonsense.

Firefox 5 not compatible with windows 7 apparently!! Need to downgrade to previous version. Computer crashes using ff but nothing else.

Microsoft's site says firefox 3 is compatible with windows 7. however, i've upgraded to firefox 5 and now system crashes to the blue screen.

I have a laptop running Firefox 5.0 on Windows 7 and don't have problem with it.
What I suggest you do in the first instance is to start Windows 7 using the '''Last Known Good Configuration''' which will load the operating system the last time it worked properly, instructions here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Using-Last-Known-Good-Configuration
Then do the following. 
#Use Internet Explorer to download Firefox from here: [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 5.0.1] and choose "'''Save'''" when you see the prompt and save it to your desktop. ''Do not choose "Run"''. 
#Next, uninstall the version you have at the moment via "Programs and Features" in Control Panel choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box''). 
#Next, reboot. 
#When the system boots to the desktop, delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\ 
#Run the installation file you downloaded earlier. 
Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation. 
I don't know if your bookmarks can be retrieved or not, but the following procedure can be used to make a backup should they still be available. 
#Press CTRL+SHIFT+B to open the Bookmarks manager. 
#Click the link to '''Import and Backup '''and then click '''Export HTML '''and save the file somewhere.
You can use the same Bookmarks Manager to import the file you saved by choosing "Import HTML" should that prove to be necessary.

I've lost my outlook express email - the bar is there - but nothing else - am not able to figure out how to restore or fix - HELP

I WAS DELETING ALL MY EMAILS FROM OUTLOOK EXPRESS. I DID SOMETHING WRONG (I THINK I MIGHT HAVE HIT SMART MAILBOX OR SOMETHING TO THAT AFFECT) AND NOW I ONLY HAVE THE BAR AT THE TOP - NOTHING ELSE - DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX OR RESTORE. NOT VERY TECH SAVY SO ANY HELP IN TERMS I CAN UNDERSTAND WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. EMAIL ACCOUNT IS STILL GOOD - I CAN ACCESS IT ON LAPTOP - NO PROBLEM

The bar at the top does not have any colors.
I have the apple icon, Mail (in the mail tab I have everything but Quit Mail & Show All)
File (Only 2 items highlighted - Close all Windows & Add RSS Feeds)
Edit (Attachments, Find, Spelling & Grammarr, Substitutions, Tranformations, Speech & Special Characters - rest are un-usable)
View (Message Attributes, Sort by, Selec & Message)
Mailbox (Take All Accounts Offline, Synchronize Account, Online Status, Get New Mail, Erase Deleted Items, new Mailbox, New Smart Mailbox, New Smart Mailbox Folder, Go To Favori9te Mailbox, Move to Fav Mailbox, Use this Mailbox for)
Message(Mark, Flag & Text coding)
Format (everything but Make Rick Text)
Window (everything but Minimize & zoom)
Help (normal)
Most of the tabs that are highlighted with the arrow pointing to an additional screen have items that are not highlighted s0 are un-usable.
As an example - the Quit mail command is not usable so the mail is continually running - problem is I can't see it - bar is at the top - screensaver fills the rest.

I can't to get Download Helper to load and run, It says its there but nothing happens

Our OS is Windows Vista and we have ff v. 27 running. I try to add Download Helper and don't have any success. When I click add, It says its installed and I can get the little circle icon in the toolbar. When I open a video nothing happens. Am I not installing properly. BTW, I'm a total dummy on this computer.

I've used this extension on Youtube from time to time. An icon appears next to the title of the video, below the player, and I click that. I'm not sure how it works on other sites. (Sometimes the icon is missing, but I see a little downward pointing triangle. In that case, I reload the page.)
Does the add-on publisher offer support on its site, or just the manual and FAQ?

When I updated iPhoto, many of my photos disappeared. The events are still there but no photos in them. How do I get it back?

When I updated iPhoto to iPhoto 9.5, many of my events with the photos disappeared. The "events" are still there but there is nothing inside. I have been unsuccessful in trying to get the photos back. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Yes - backup first in case something goes wrong
And if the iPhoto first aid does not resolve things download iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - and use its rebuild command to create a totally new library leaving the current one untouched if you still need it

Safari There But Invisible

My Safari works just fine, but I am trying to help another person fix their Safari 5, who is on a MacBook about 4 years old, and running 10.5.8, but with only 512 MB of RAM.
On bootup, the Safari menu bar is there, but nothing else - no window/s. There may even be more than one window (Safari says, "there are 2 windows open, are you sure you want to quit."), but none are showing up, and no, they are not minimized to the Dock.
If you go to the menu bar and select "new tab," Safari crashes. While it is still open, I am able to look at her Safari preferences, but I don't see anything odd, although she prefers new windows over new tabs.
This is a real head-scratcher.
We have reinstalled Safari twice, and downloaded and installed the OSX Combo Update 10.5.8., without any improvement.

You're welcome.
Yes, the InputManager folder either will be empty, or non-existant if you have no 3rd party add-ons installed there. Another place to look is either the Main or User Library>Applications Support>SIMBL>Plugins folder (again, this folder may not exist). Anything installed in these locations are potential candidates for compatibility issues. Not so much in the Internet Plug-ins folder.
Let us know what you discover.

When I go to my home page, some of the gadgets do not appear. The frame is there but the app is gone.

Several of the gadgets on my igoogle homepage are no longer visible. I still get local weather, quotes and a couple of others but the rest aren't there. The frames that outline these missing gadgets are still in place but there's nothing inside them.
Thanks....Joe

Opening in the side bar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website. 
You can check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the side bar (Ctrl+B; Cmd+B on Mac). 
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right. 
Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the side bar" is not selected.

Tried to reinstall iPhoto library from external hard drive, it shows that the photos and events are there but there are no thumbnails and if you click on an image or video nothing comes up.

My hard drive crashed recently and we took it to apple to get repaired. The apple employees said that they would have to replace the hard drive but they didn't have the equipment to get the data off my hard drive. So I took it to a computer store who had the right equipment after a month and a half of waiting they finally got all the data off my hard drive and put it on an external hard drive (Seagate Expansion Portable Drive). I then took it back to apple who replaced the hard drive. Now I'm in the process of reinstalling everything. I have never done a Time Machine back up or backed my laptop up to . Which I now will do very often once I've reinstalled everything. I have reinstalled all of my desktop images and folders as well as my iTunes library with no issues. However when i went to reinstall my iPhoto library it came up blank. I then Rebuilt the library several times and this was the result.
It shows that the photos and events are there but there are no thumbnails and if you click on an image or video nothing comes up.
Please help i have three years worth of images from holidays on here and would be devastated if i lost them.

iPhoto cannot find the thumbnails or the original pictures.
Go to your iPhoto Library in the Pictures Folder.
Right-click on it and from the resulting menu, choose 'Show Package Contents'.
This will bring you inside the iPhoto Library package. There you should see a Folder called Masters. Within that, there should be folder containing your actual photos.
Are they there?
