Thought it was Prox Sensor issue, but now I dont think it is

I thought I was having intermittant issues with the proximity sensor...every now and then I would mute someone or start dialing random numbers while on a call. Today while I was on a call it happend again, but I now am pretty sure I know what trigers it...at least for me. While on the call I got the chime that I had a new e-mail and then I started dialing random numbers and muted the call...I havent had a chance to experiment any more today, but does a new email or text notification "wake-up" the screen while in a call? If thats the case..hey apple..disable that!

I'm pretty sure that's not the case.

Firefox sometimes does not allow me to complete an online purchase. I thought it was a website issue, but now wonder if relates to Firefox or Add-ons.

Yesterday I tried ordering from walmart.com and selected and edited my order with ease. When I clicked on "Check out now and Place Order" I was re=cycled back to the same order page and could not finish my order. I then tried with Safari and completed my order with no problems. This has happened on other websites occasionally, and I need to know if it is something in Firefox or my Add-ons that I need to adjust to keep this from happening. Thank you for any assistance, I am an old grandpa with much appreciation for, but with little savvy of, the computer world.

sir,
i feel very much proud to get ur post
r u upgrade the firefox 11 to 12?
it seems that upgrading to
firefox 12 has many problem.
Most of the people have problem
after upgrading firefox 12. Most
of the time the upgrade from
firefox 11 to 12 not successful.so
the problem has occure. I
recommend u to download
Firefox 12 from mozilla.org and
install it. It is the easiest way to
solve ur problem. There are many
other ways to solve the
problem.but the easiest way is
this.
First,uninstall ur firefox.
Then download the latest version of firefox from mozilla.org.install it and browse.
If not solve,just leave a reply.
Thanks a lot.

IBook (Late 2004)- Thought it was a disk problem but now out of my depth?

Hi all,
This a really strange one.
I'll give you as much to go on as poss... Long post alert!!
(I'm wondering if I perhaps have more than one problem..?)
I have an iBook G4 (Late 2004) here, 1.2 Ghz, with an 80GB factory installed HD. RAM maxed out, but unaltered for 4 years. No new software or other recent changes.
It started acting wonky, freezing, crashing etc, so ran Disk Utility to repair permissions. Closed itself down halfway through, then wouldn't boot at all, just showed flashing question mark.
In Target Disk Mode, Disk Utility showed "*Underlying task reported failure*" and Disk Warrior couldn't replace directory "*due to Mac OS X services failure*".
(Did show me red than I've ever seen on using DW before though!)
Tried to boot from install CD but wouldn't start up. The only CD it will boot from is Apple Hardware Test, which showed "*Error Detected*" for Mass Storage.
OK, I thought, the disk is 4 years old, time to get the screwdrivers out.
Using the ifixit instructions and Spudnuty's helpful suggestions (+BTW, thanks!+), successfully changed it for a WD 250GB Scorpio disk (£90, MicroAnvika), and then using Target Disk mode again, initialized it and used Carbon Copy Cloner to restore my last full clone (6 months old though... I know, I know!).
Restarted in 'standalone mode', repaired disk permissions (SMART showing Verified), all seemed to be functioning OK, then tried to start up from Disk Warrior to double check.
Now all attempts to start up from DW or Install CDs result in Kernel Panics or blank grey screens, although Apple Hardware Test still runs and shows
*ERROR CODE: 2STF/8/3: ATA-100 ata-6-Master ERROR CODE*
In Target Disk Mode, both Disk Utility and Disk Warrior are making the same reports as before the Hard Disk exchange.
So I pulled the 1GB of RAM (Crucial) which has been in there for 4 years, and also took off the battery, and hey it started up ok!!
Ran Disk utility- SMART status Verified, but repair permission "*lost its connection with Macintosh HD*" halfway through. At second attempt, it repaired ok.
Tried to start from CD again, several attempts result only in booting to-
" *Invalid Memory Access at %SRR0: 72b82dc0 %SRR1:40003030*
*Apple PowerBook 6,5 4.8.7f1 Boot ROM Built on 09/23/04* " etc etc
*Welcome to Open Firmware*" etc etc, where entering "shut-down" hangs and "mac-boot" flips me the Flashing Question Mark again.
I've tried resetting PRAM (several tries no changes), tried starting up in Single User mode, Safe Mode etc etc... makes no difference.
So here's the question-
Is it possible that the ATA bus is to blame? (What's the fix?) Or suddenly bad RAM?
What else can I do before I concur with the service manual that the logic board needs replacing?
I'm loath to give up on it, it's been a good friend for years! (On the other hand, I can't justify spending too much on it either...)
Any ideas? (and sorry, brevity apparently not my forte!)
Andy.

The point is up to your needs. They are nice machines, and if you can have it repaired, there is no harm in trying to be environmentally friendly by making it useful again. Updating to new software may be more trouble than it is worth depending on how old the software you currently have installed, and your finances for new software. Or getting a working used or refurbished Mac might be another option. See my FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/usedrefurbished.html
And check these sites as to what they might cost to repair your machine:

My AOL mail is suddenly printing out in teeny-tiny font that I can't control!!?? Also realized my mail minimizes instead of closing!! Thought it was an AOL issue but neither of these things happen through IE. Is there a fix?

Thanks.

re: "So, I am now thinking: Volume does not equal Speaker sound, but something else. What would that be?"
Dathan,
First of all, Welcome to the Discussions!
I see that Peggy, in the "Feedback About Discussions" forum has directed you here. I and others will be glad to try to sort out your problem if we can.
I might be confused by your post but did you try to repair (Volume Macintosh HD) via your install cd or from the HD disk utility or are you asking what is meant by repairing the Volume Macintosh HD? Was this a message you received from the Apple Hardware Test (AHT) cd? It sounds as if you might be asking how to run the Repair Disk function from the Disk Utility and this will need to be done from your install CD.
If so, you will insert the install cd #1 while holding down the "c" key when restarting (release the "c" when you come to the installer spash screen) you will come to the desktop with the install splash screen. IGNORE this and go directly to your top menus>Installer Menu>Disk Utility and when disk utility opens select your Macintosh HD and then Repair Disk. No need to run the Verify Disk function. Run this a few time if it finds errors that it cannot repair and then post back if it cannot repair them and make note of what it cannot repair.

I keep crashing. thought it was a add on but now it isnt. I got these two crash reports. bp-b58733f9-1bd5-4dcf-b103-2095621205125/12/201210:27 AMbp-6d911984-eb7

firefox keeps crashing. I uninstalled and reinstalled and took off add ons which I thought were the problem. It is still crashing.

Perform the suggestions mentioned below:
1) Restart your Windows in Safe Mode as described in the following article:
* http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/boot_failsafe.mspx?mfr=true
2) Uninstall Firefox as described in this article -> [[Uninstalling Firefox]]
* Restart your system
3) Download latest Firefox version from the following link using some other Web Browser:
* http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/new/
4) Install Firefox 12 as described in this article -> [[Installing Firefox on Windows]]
* DON'T START FIREFOX YET
5) Create a New Firefox Profile as described in the following article:
* [[Basic Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile|Basic Troubleshooting - Make a New Profile]]
* Now start Firefox using this newly created profile.
Check and tell if its working.
-> IF that New Profile works then you can recover your History, Bookmarks and Passwords from the Old Profile.

I accidentally erased my keychain passwords, how can I replace it? I thought I was deleting one account but it deleted everything. I now keep getting pop-ups asking me for a keychain password...which I don't remember ever creating.

I accidentally erased my keychain passwords, how can I replace it? ( I was in the keychains folder on the password link when i pressed delete). I thought I was deleting one account but it deleted everything. I now keep getting pop-ups asking me for a keychain password...which I don't remember ever creating.

Try running Keychain Access/First Aid and resetting the original keychain.

I can't be the only person who has this problem - when a month ends on a Saturday I can't drag events into the next month and instead have to cut and paste - a real pain in the butt. I thought there was something called "scroll" but I can't find that

I can't be the only person who has this problem with iCal- when a month ends on a Saturday I can't drag events into the next month and instead have to cut and paste - a real pain in the butt. I thought there was something called "scroll" but I can't find that.

Yeah that works, but, it involves a click on the event, a click on edit, a click on the date, keystrokes, plus, since you can't see the next month you have to have a calendar in front of you so as to put it to the right date. It's easier just to cut it and advance the month and paste it, once you are in the right month you can move it around helter skelter willy nilly no problems. Although now that you mention it I will try it, maybe it is easier than cut and paste as I don't really care about the date, as long as it gets moved into the right month I can drag it around all I want.

I created a slide show in imovie for my daughters 21st with voice overs from friends and family which was all working fine but now the voice recordings are not playing at all. Obviously some setting has changed but I can't find which one.

Others are more likely to help if you stop needlessly repeating yourself and provide some details.
What operating system? Windows (XP, Vista, 7) Mac
Any errors?
Also, try doing a search either here or via Google, you are more likely to get a faster resolution as there is no need to wait on others to respond.
