The NYT website won't stop loading whenever it does an auto-update. While this loading continues, other websites are unresponsive until I force the loading to terminate. This started happening with FF 4.0.1.

When I do a manual refresh on certain sites like NY Times or CNN, or when sites like NYT periodically push an update through, the updates won't stop loading. It's as though the update never completes. The rotating circle icon on the affected tab just continues indefinitely. While this is happening, other websites that I try to open or update are either very slow or unresponsive.
My fix has been to force the update to terminate by using the red X button next to the website name. Then other websites respond normally but often the one that I have manually stopped becomes unresponsive.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • The Archive Utility won't stop trying to unarchive

    hi there,
    i downloaded a zip drive yesterday and the unarchive utility won't stop. i pressed cancel, and the cancel button greyed out. i've gone to force quit and it doesn't do anything. i've tried to shut down the computer and it says the shut down was canceled by the archive utility. any suggestions?\
    thank you!

    try killing the process from Activity monitor.
    if that doesn't help kill the loginwindow process that belongs to your user using Activity monitor. this will force an immediate user logout. if all else fails hold the power button to force a shutdown.

    Wouldn't apple check before releasing new version, I see so many people with same issue..its such a waste of time for everyone now to fix it.
    Is there any other way to fix before I try to un-install everything and re-install back?

    i just purchased the apple tv, i have an older tv that does not have an HDMI input.   is there a converter i can get because the itv only have an HDMI output ?  help.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There are hardware converters that will convert HDMI to various other types of output, however there are some issues with doing so that you should be aware of.
    HDCP
    HDCP compliant converters will not allow you to watch HDCP protected content such as that from the iTunes Store. Non compliant converters exist but we cannot discuss them under the Terms of Use for these communities.
    Resolution and aspect ratio
    I'm not aware of any converters that will scale the output from the Apple TV, any TV or projector which is used will need to be widescreen and support resolutions of 720p.

    Windows Explorer will display tag properties for mp3 & wma files, not aac (m4a) or wav. It is possible for mp3 files to contain multiple tags but only one will be displayed. Try inspecting the problem fils with a third party tag editor to see if you can tell what is going on. For mp3 files, provided all the details that you want the file to have are displayed in iTunes, you can try using the right-click option Convert ID3 Tag > None a few times followed by Convert ID3 Tag > ID3v2.3 which may well help.

  • I updated my iPod Touch, and now the App Store won't stop crashing?

    I just got a new update for my iPod touch. I had to delete a few apps to make space. Then, I proceeded downloading. I have the 4th generation and my iPod is about 6 months old (I had to get another one from my warranty because my other one got broken) Now, whenever I click on the App Store, it starts to load, and then it crashes. What do I do?

    You might try clearing all the apps out of the recently used apps menu, or doing a two-finger reset (home and lock buttons until you see the Apple logo on the screen). I've seen similar posts that were resolved by doing that, but it hasn't worked for me. If you figure it out, I'd definitely be interested.

  • IPhone 4S not sure if charging but the charging sound won't stop and iTunes detects it?

    Hi, I've never had a problem like this in the past with my 4S, but I have had issues charging it. At the end of the day, it's always worked, but now I don't think it will. I've connected my cable to my USB and to an adapter on my computer and a plug in the wall, but both times the phone does not stop indicating that it is charging with it's little jingle or it's vibrating when I turn the sound off, and when I try to turn it on by pressing the LOCK button and both the HOME and the LOCK button, it doesn't work.
    I connected my iPhone 4S to my computer, and iTunes has detected my phone, but it's still not turning on and the charging sound will not stop. What should I do?

  • The iChat icon won't stop bouncing?!?!?!?

    When I had Snow Leopard, I went to iChat preferences and set it so that the iChat icon wouldn't bounce when i got a message. That didn't work.
    When I upgraded to Lion yesterday, I went to iChat preferences and set it so that the icon wouldn't bounce, but it still didn't work.
    *** is wrong with this icon-bouncing ?????

    You don't need to worry about the system disk icon appearing on the desktop in order to boot from the CD. Just insert the CD, and then restart your Mac while holding down the "C" key until you see the splash screen, then you can release the "C" key and let if finish booting.
    Once you have done this you can run the disk utility as per the instructions in the FAQ I referenced.
    One other thing that I can think of could be causing this problem. It could be that your desktop preference file is corrupted. What you could try is to navigate to your home/library/preferences folder and look for a file called com.apple.desktop.plist. Take that file and move it out of the library/preferences folder to some other location and then restart your computer and see if CD's will show on the desktop again.
    If you do this you will have to reset all of the desktop preferences again. If it does not work you can move the file that you took out back in to the preferences folder and just have it replace the newer file.
