What do I need to do to stop constant Firefox freezes on Mac OSX? Safari doesn't have the same problem, so it can't be the computer.
My IMac, using OS X 10.6.6, works well and quickly - until I use Firefox. Almost every command I give leads to a freeze that lasts from a few seconds to a couple of minutes - sometimes with and sometimes without the whirling beachball. This is true no matter what website I'm on. I've used Firefox for years and never had this problem before. What can I do to fix this problem?
I have an Idea for you.. Stop using MAC! I'm a PC user and I've never had any problem with firefox or any other program being "incompatible." Can you guess why? Because people design programs like firefox and pretty much everything else around WINDOWS.

I've reset my PPAM before to get around Firmware lock, but I've upgraded to mountain lion and now need to do the same thing, but I can't reset the PRAM. I've heard of the chip that is on the post 2011 macs, but I must not have one? What to do? Also, I can not get start up chimes unless I have the factory startup disk in. Can the PRAM be reset with the factory startup disk in or must the mac boot from the hard drive? Need help.

I have multiple devices on the same itunes library and they all starting to have the same issues. Not recognizing numbers previously stored, not sending/receiving tests. Do I need to get everyone separate itunes accounts?
What is the best way to set up itunes on our home network?
One iTunes library per person. One iTunes account per person.
If people wish to share songs, they can make copies.
When the inevitable day comes when the kids get older, you will not have to come back here and post asking how all that stuff can get separated! -
I printed a 'preview' document and now it continues to print a never ending set of copies. I have re-installed the printer software, but it still continues to print more copies. What do I need to do to stop the document printing?
Try resetting the printing system.
1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
2. Move your mouse over the Printers list
3. Hold down the Control button and click the mouse
4. Click the "Reset printing system ..." popup
5. Restart your Mac
This will remove your print queues but not your printer drivers. So you will only need to add your printer queues again. -

Every time I connect my iPhone 4s to iTunes on my Mac, it tries to set up my phone as a new one/restore from back up. I have it all set up already, but it keeps appearing. What do I need to do to stop this?
Hello there, deelish.
A great Knowledge Base article that has some valid information is:
iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
The pertinent section for you would be:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,

I have a MacBook Pro early 2011. Does not start. After the apple show, a blank screen appear. The service said that the problem is with the video plaquue in the logic board. Need to change. Cost lmmost the same than a new MacBook Pro. Somebody has the same problem? What we can do?
I hate to break this to you, but life isn't fair. If your job is that critically in need of a computer, then you should have a spare to use for just this kind of situation or have your employer provide you with a computer to use.
Computers break down, just like cars. If your car breaks down do you curse the car maker or get it fixed? Surely, you paid more for your car than the computer.
This is reality. Best get used to it because it won't get any better. -
I have a early 2008 Macbook Pro, need to up grade the hard drive so that I can add a windows environment what is the largest drive that I can put in this computer? Is the storage size the constraint or the physical size of the drive? Or a combination?
The largest capacity HDD that you can install is the HGST 1.5 TB HDD:

Any 2.5" 9.5mm thick SATA HDD will fit and operate in your MBP, regardless of capacity.
Ciao.

I am using a PC with window 7 and adobe photoshop 12. I have followed Photoshop Elements Help and I still have the same problem. When I try to backup Photoshop 12 it has stop on7% when calculating Total Media size. What can I do?
Hi Prabhuram and falez,
This issue appears where there are any inconsistencies in your catalog (generally for video files). This issue may be due to offline files, missing files, video scenes. The recommendation here would be to fix these inconsistencies and try again. If that doesn't solve the issue, please follow steps mentioned in email by me.

When i put my iPhone in the logitech dock and i start the music it stops at exactly 1 Minute. What's the problem? I cleaned the contacts, the same happened again. always after 1 minute the music pauses!
It is a known issue and un-conventional remedy.
It is Hardware failure. I would get the iPhone changed for a good one. -
Release notes for 2.16 states that there was a fix for alerts not being modal. We are using 3.0.6 and are experiencing the same issue; was there a regression to the modal fix. What version needs to be used to make sure that alert messages are modal?
We are trying to determine why alert boxes are not modal
The fix states it's for Firefox 2.0 - 3.7a1pre
We are using 3.0.6 not the current version of 3.6.13.

My iPad Air has the latest software version(iOS 7.1.2) update, since that update the location services have stopped working. have a solution?
I have had the same problem, so many apps do not work properly without it! Apple says the internet satellite, the Internet satellite says Apple, back and forth with the blame instead of fixing the problem. Have turned location on and off, reset everything multiple times ( lots of hours and bandwidth to download ), Siri is now working part time, I guess she has cut back her hours for the summer. Even in these forums was suggested to check with Skyhook who does the global positioning, and after hours with them, they ended up saying that they have nothing to do with it anymore, Apple does. All to no avail and much frustration! I wonder if this is happening with the iPhone's? i'd like to know if this is happening with others that do not use satellite as their ISP? That would help narrow down the argument with Apple vs. satellite. Fell for you! Someone please help us! Ta

can"t install lastest verison of itunes. path too ITUNES64.MSI" unable to find. uninstall tunes and still having the same problems
what do i do to reinstall itunes????For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

HT5429 which iOS6 devices support voice navigation?
