System Preferences Crashes When I Click the MobileMe Icon

System Preferences crashes whenever I click on the MobileMe icon in System Preferences. All other icons in System Preferences work -- only the MobileMe icon causes a crash. I tried deleting com.apple.systempreferences.plist, but it didn't help.
Any suggestions? I can't find anyone else who has posted about this error (although, to be honest, such a post may be hidden in all of the posts about MobileMe crashes).
Thanks

Same here. Sys Pref crashes and sync not working. I've had the same experience on a mini with .Mac, so your problem is not an isolated experience.
The only suggestion I can offer is to go for any of the MobileMe alternatives, such as BusySync, DropBox, Spanning Sync etc. However, I don't like patchy setups like these.
I'd really love to have the MobileMe functionality, as it currently offers best integration. If it only just worked.

System Preferences crashes when I click the Bluetooth icon

I tried pairing my MacBook Pro with a Juno Trimble GPS receiver. It seemed to pair but wouldn't transfer a file from the GPS to the laptop. Now, when I click on the Bluetooth icon in System Preferences, it suddenly quits. I tried restarting the MacBook but that didn't help the issue.

I had a similar issue this morning and ended up having to go in to the Apple Store to get it fixed. It was a software issue and I needed to re-install the OS.
I have a wireless keyboard and mouse and neither would connect with the computer. Anytime I tried to do anything in the Bluetooth System Preferences, it stopped responding and I had to Force Quit.
The solution was to turn off the computer and hold down the "Option" key as I turned it back on. Hold the key down until a screen pops up with your hard drive button and a Recovery button. Click (or arrow over if you have a wireless mouse too) the Recovery button. It will take a second, but eventually your wireless mouse will connect with the computer in this mode. Select ReInstall OSX and follow the instructions. It takes about 2 hours, but Bluetooth and all your wireless devices should be working again.

System preferences crashes when I click on sound.

When I click on the sound in the system preferences, it crashes. But I need to enter the sound menu to change my input and output because I want to connect speakers to my iMac. Can someone help me please?

Go to ~/Library/Preferences
Move the com.apple.systempreferences.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac, try System Preferences > Sound

System preferences crashes when mouse icon is selected. All other icons seem to function.

System preferences crashes when mouse icon is selected. All other icons seem to function.Software is OSX 10.7.5. Update shows software is updated. I tried to reset the PRAM, but it did not help. When resetting PRAM, I did not get a 2nd klaxon on startup.

That implies that the underlying OS is corrupted. Best thing to do is boot into recovery mode and reinstall the OS, unless you have an installer copy. If so, use Pacifist to reinstall the SystemPreferences app.

I know this isn't really the right place to ask, but could someone explain why when I open Portal 2, that I got off steam and spent a whole day downloading, keeps crashing when I click the Campaign/Single Player mode. It Freezes and then crashes. Help!

Uhm, why don't you go to the right place, then? There are several Steam/Portal forums out there...

I am running OS X 10.5.8 and don't see an iCloud icon in my system preferences. I do see a Mobileme icon but I would like to have all my mac devices on iCloud. How can I get iCloud on my desktop?

iCloud requires 10.7.2 or later. See the following about how to upgrade:
Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.

I have two facebook accounts availible when I click the facebook icon in aperture it tries to log into the disabled account. It doesn't give me any option to continue making an album for the enabled account. Why?

I have two facebook accounts availible when I click the facebook icon in aperture it tries to log into the disabled account. It doesn't give me any option to continue making an album for the enabled account. Why?

I suppose I could delete it, but the whole point of multiple accounts is so I can post to either. One is mine, one is my wife's. If it is not enabled why would I need to log into it to post to my own account. The system has no problem associating existing albums with my account, I is only failing to allow me to choose only my account to create an new one. It is clearly designed to handle multiple accounts, but seems to have a bug directing it to ask for the password for a disabled account instead of allowing selection of and posting to the enabled one.

My mail window won't come up when I click the mail icon in desktop. Mac Book Pro

My Mail window won't come up when I click the mail icon in desktop. My Accounts both show as marked in accounts.

Try clicking GO in the menu bar/Go to folder in the pane enter ~/Library/Preferences/com,apple.mail.plist
Another way is to hold the OPTION key click GO in the menu bar>Library>Preferences, locate the the file com.apple.mail.plist
Drag this file to the trash (do not empty)
Quit Mail log out and reboot, see if that helps, if it does not you can drag the file from the trash and and replace it where it was. (it will probably give you a this file already exists, click replace)
Post back there may another thing to check.

Ok, lets do a couple of steps here first:
To make sure your windows isn't corrupted because of the power outage, let's run chkdsk.
Click on My Computer, then right click your C: Drive (if you have other hard drives, you will want to run this on them as well). Then, click Properties. Inside that window, go to the Tools tab. Inside that tab, open up the "Check Now" button. That will open a smaller window. Select the checkbox to "Automatically fix file system errors", then hit Start. You will probably receive an error asking if you want to schedule the disk check, click Yes, then restart your computer.
Read [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315265] for more information.
After running the chkdsk, then please go to [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com], and download a fresh version of Firefox. I'm assuming you are using Internet Explorer to download Firefox. Instead of hitting Run, let's try hitting save. Remember where it saves the installer file on your computer.
After the download has finished, double-click and run the Firefox install. Once it is finished, try to start Firefox up. Let me know how it goes!

I am receiving emails, but nothing opens when I click the email icon

When I click the email icon, a blank email screen pops up for about 10 seconds, then shuts down and goes back to the main screen. I have restarted the iphone, closed the applications and even checked my emails online. Nothing seems to be working. Any Ideas?

Do a reset, hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for your phone to boot back up. then check the emails.

When I click the Preview icon ti does not load. what can I do?

Are you sure it doesn't start? Just opening preview doesn't open a file. Look in the top left of the menubar and see if it says preview. Double click on a PDF file and see if that opens preview.

My new iphone 4S camera is not functioning. When I click the phone icon, the shutter appears. Then the screen only shows the shutter. When I go back to the home screen and click the phone icon again. The photo screen only shows a black screen. The button to take photos is locked the entire time. I've turned the phone on and off several times.

Basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Have these ALL been tried?

I can only open one Firefox browser window. When I click the firefox icon from desktop or taskbar to open up another browser window it does not open. I am ablt to open up new tabs within the one window.

Have you tried: click Firefox button > New Tab > New Window '''''OR''''' CTRL+N '''''OR''''' File > New Window (if using the Menu Bar)
Once open, Firefox locks the Profile that is in use and you can not open another window with that Firefox version and Profile combination using the Windows Desktop icon or the Windows Programs list.
