Every time I boot, nether in OSX or windows I get a screen the same as the boot screen just with a buffering wheel. Please Help.

Hello,
I'm currently in mac recovery. I have a 21.5'' iMac (I think late 2011). I'm running OSX mountain lion and I think its kept up to date. Every time I boot, nether in OSX or windows I get a screen the same as the boot screen just with a buffering wheel (not the beachball one). This seems to go on for ever (at least 3 hours) ant will not boot. Booting in safe mode does not work and results in the same problem. As I said earlier I can get tom recovery mode. Thanks Oliver.
I have on/for my machine:
Mac OSX mountain lion
Windows 7 Pro 64bit
4GB of ram
OSX 10 FULL backups (External 2TB drive)
500GB HDD
Please ask if you would like more Information.

Hello, disconnect any external drives for now.
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

Could you do the following please.
Click "Start" and then in the search box at the bottom of the menu, type: CMD
When you get the link, right click it and choose "Run As Administrator".
At the prompt, type CD\ and hit Enter. This will take you to the root.
Next, type: net user administrator /active:yes and hit Enter to enable the hidden Administrator account.
Type: EXIT to close the command prompt.
Reboot the machine and you'll see an additional logon option called Administrator. Choose that and then hit Enter to boot to the desktop (the Aministrator account doesn't have a password by default).
Disable your antivirus to prevent it interfering with the installation. If you have AVAST antivirus, right click the orange icon in systray, go to Avast Shields Control and disable all shields for 1 hour. Otherwise consult this list for instructions on how to disable it: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic114351.html
Next, download Flash for Internet Explorer from here: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax_64bit.exe
When you see the prompt, click "Run" to install it immediately.
After the installation completes, open a command prompt again and type: net user administrator /active:no to disable the Administrator account.
Reboot the machine and then open Internet Explorer.
Click "Tools", then "Manage Add-ons".
In the dropdown menu on the left near the bottom (see screenshot), choose "Run without permission".
Scroll down to "Adobe Systems Incorporated" and verify that "Shockwave Flash Object" is installed and enabled. If it's present, but disabled, click the "Enable" button bottom left of that menu.
Finally, re-enable you antivirus and reboot again. Check the "Manage Add-ons" menu to verify that Flash is still present.

I just updated my macbook pro and now every time i go to youtube it tells me I have to download the new version of adobe flash player so i do and it still wont let me play it ..

Assuming Allan's advice is not correct, and you do run the installer, I think I've heard of that problem and it involves removing the old Flash plug-ins, then install the new version. I don't use it so I don't know what they are called, but will be the /Library/Internet Plug-ins folder.
You can go here and enable HTML5 in YouTube so you don't have to use Flash: http://www.youtube.com/html5
Most(?) of the content is HTML5, but you may run into videos where you still need Flash.

FF 3.6.7, Flash 10.1 -- flash crashes EVERY TIME I try to view a video.

FF 3.6.7, Flash 10.1 -- Any time I try to view a video from FaceBook - either directly linked to YouTube or inside FB, Flash either crashes with the annoying error message or hangs forever. I have reloaded, unloaded, disabled all other plugins and add ons etc, etc. I can get it to sort of work by loading Flash 10.0.12.36
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I think it started with 3.6.6

Go to the address '''about:crashes''' and tell us your latest crash IDs. We can then look at the data specific to your crash and have a better idea of what is causing the problem.

Flash player request that I reinstall it every time i reboot my computer

I just uninstalled flash player using the adobe uninstaller,   following the   steps,   it installed successfully.
Tonight I got message up saying I had to install flash player to enter Game Ranger It reinstalls the same version.
Every time I shut down computer and come back I have to reinstall Flash player again. when I go to Game Ranger.   I uninstalled Game Ranger and it made no difference.   Other people using this site do not have this issue.
I have Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate and my default browser is Firefox.
I did deep scan on computer and have no problems, no malware etc.
Does anyone have any suggestions.   This worked fine until a couple months ago   now i have this problem
Thanks in advance

Flash crashes every time in Firefox 27.0.1 on Windows 8.1

Flash crashes every time it tries to load in Firefox. I've tried safe mode with extensions disabled, and it still crashes. I tried disabling protected mode, upgrading to the latest version of Flash, and downgrading to 11.7. I also have updated my video drivers to the latest versions. None of those things helped. Flash works fine in Chrome, though.
Has anyone else had this problem, and have any idea how to fix it?

Flash Player™ works in Chrome® because Chrome® has a proprietary plug-in which Google® modifies and embeds in the browser.
If you've "been through the works" with troubleshooting Flash Player™, try resetting Firefox® (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems). You'll be surprised what that'll fix.
You should alwasys use the latest Flash Player™ and I'd recommend reinstalling it using the FULL installer: Flash Player™ 12.0.0.70 Plug-in (All other browsers)... but use the Flash Player™ Uninstaller to remove the old one.

Element 12 runs updating every time it starts why?

element 12 runs updating every time it starts why?
The problem is that I have 35,000 photos and every time I start it runs for a long time and most time does not add any thing
Can some help explain is there a way to stop or control this ?
Thanks ..

Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator. 
Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties". 
In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected. 
You also need to check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory. 
If you can't make the changes then you need to start Windows Explorer as Administrator.

I have to re-install adobe flash for firefox every time i start my computer even if firefox shows that my adobe flash is working it does not.I also get notices from the websites i visit (get flash e.t.c.)

i have the latest firefox 10.02 in win7 and even if firefox shows is installed my adobe flash is not working so i have to run the flash installer every time i start my pc.After this everything works fine until the next start when i have to run the flashinstaller again

There are two versions of the Flash Player plugin. One is ActiveX and only works in IE. It sounds like you have that one installed. The other one works in all other browsers.
What seems to be happening is that you have security software that's blocking one of those versions of Flash/restoring your computer state and so it gets uninstalled when you start your computer. The other possibility is that there are permission issues. Unfortunately, this isn't something that Firefox can control; it's a problem with the Flash installation (Firefox is dumb and just looks in the registry for a list of installed plugins to load).
Make sure that you're an admin on your computer when you try to install Flash and that you check your security settings. If that doesn't work, try posting to the [http://forums.adobe.com/community/flashplayer Adobe community forums] to see if other people have had similar issues and know how to address them.

Photoshop Elements 12 crashes almost every time while I am using it. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled it and it has not helped. I have a Mac.

How can I correct the problem of my Photoshop Elements 12 program crashing every time while I am using it? I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the program once and it keeps on doing this. I have a Mac computer.

Uninstalling and reinstalling almost never solves these kinds of problems. Has it ever worked right? What version of OS X are you using?

Flash bombs every time I copy an image

I have a problem.
I want to go inside a movie clip and play with the animation.
But when I select the contents of frame 1 and hit "copy", Flash
bombs every time!
What's going on?

What version of flash? What platform? What are the contents
you are copying? Vectors? Bitmap? Did
you try reinstalling? Not a common issue I am afraid - never
hear of this so it may be something
with your system.

Font Book disables fonts every time I restart my computer

First, some info on my computer:
- OS X 10.9.3
- Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 version 7.5
- Office 2011 14.4.3
- Suitcase Fusion 5 16.2.0
As a graphic designer, I've accumulated thousands of fonts. In an attempt to clean this up, I recently purchased Suitcase Fusion 5. I transferred the fonts by going into Font Book and selecting "Restore Standard Fonts." I then took the Macintosh HD; Library; "Fonts (Removed)" folder and added those to Suitcase Fusion 5.
Then I went back, and added about five of the removed fonts back into Macintosh HD; Library; Fonts — just because they are fonts I use frequently — as well as the Microsoft folder of fonts.
Now, for some reason, every time I start my computer (I shut down every night before leaving my office) about half of the Microsoft fonts are disabled by font book. The next day I enable them and everything works well and they all show up in both my Adobe and Office programs, but I'd really rather not play that game every morning. Again, almost all of the fonts being disabled are in the Macintosh HD; Library; Fonts; Microsoft folder, but only until the Ms or so, after which point they all show up as enabled and work just fine. And then there are a couple of outliers I've marked with an asterisk, that are just in the typical Macintosh HD; Library; Fonts folder that are also being disabled, the most confusing one being ThirstyRoughTextures.ttf, because the rest of the Thirsty Rough family is working just fine. (This single Thirsty Rough file is the only of the five-or-so fonts that I added back into my library after restoring it to standard fonts that is acting up. The others show up in all programs just fine.)
Anyhow, does anyone know why this might be happening, or how to resolve the issue? Any input would be great, thanks!

I'm fed up with Font Book and ready to remove it.
Just to keep it easily handy, put the Font Book app on an external drive. All other supporting system files for it will still be on the drive, so using it again rather than a third party font manager is as simple as copying FB back into the Applications folder.
It is essential after deleting Font Book to follow the steps in my article to remove the abandoned Font Book database. Even with the main Font Book app removed from the drive, if the database exists, OS X will keep trying to read and use it, and it will interfere with all other font managers.
which seemingly only activates fonts once I open up that extension
Those are extension panels Suitcase adds to apps they've written them for so you don't have to go to the main interface in order to turn fonts on or off. It's a convenience thing to speed up access to your font sets.
what will happen to programs like Microsoft Office that aren't compatible with Fusion?
If you use a panel in the Adobe apps to turn any fonts on or off, all apps system wide will see the changes in available fonts since that's how it works with any manager. Or, you can launch the main Suitcase interface to do the same thing.
MS Office has an annoying quirk I haven't seen with any other app. It will not pay attention to any fonts you've activated or deactivated after Word has been launched. That's not a Suitcase issue, it's any font manager. Office simply does not keep tabs on available fonts while in use. To see fonts you've activated after Word is already running, you have to quit Word and relaunch it. Same with turning fonts off. Doesn't matter that they're not available any more. If they were when you launched Word, they'll continue to show in the list. Attempting to use one of course doesn't work. It types in Arial, or something, but not what you chose since it can't.
Is FontBook irrelevant and Office/any other program still just utilizes the actual HD/Library/Fonts folder without it?
When font management is working as it supposed to, all apps (save Office) will change the list of fonts you can use as you turn them on or off. It used to be, way back in Tiger, 10.4 (before 10.4.3) and earlier that any fonts in the System or main Library folder were available all the time with no way to control them, other than physically deleting fonts from those folders. This is still true of the System's Fonts folder.

UI Element Inspector flashes up every time I boot the computer. When I go into Settings - Privacy etc the Shiftit app is there but in grey so I cannot click on it to enable? Any ideas?
