When asking to view statements in online bills--firefox continuously runs a blank tab that is added to my downloads and I cannot stop it without shutting down the computer?

I use Firefox for all our online bill statements. When I go to my Charter One bank account and press view e-statements, firefox does not view these statements, it has started to show pages that are blank and the tab is say charterone.com....dafault/???????(not
sure what is after default) After shutting down and restarting, my downloads are loaded with these blank pages that I've been deleting--hundreds of these. How do I stop this from happening every time I want to view my account statements?

Hi,
Please see [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox%20keeps%20opening%20many%20tabs%20or%20windows this].

    I touch will not charge or show up on the computer. It charges on the wall charger. I uninstalled and re-installed itunes and I also restarted the itouch and the computer. What next?

    Play it safe with the charging.  Use the wall charger for at least an hour and then connect to the computer.  If iTunes still denies that it exists, go here:

  • Safari will lock up on my MacBook Pro. Force quit doesn't help. When I try to restart the computer, I get an error saying Safari cancelled the restart. I have to press the power button to shut down the computer.

    While I'm using safari,  it will freeze up. When I force quit safari and reopen it, I find that I'm back to where I was when I did the force quit and safari remains locked up. When I try to restart the computer, I get a pop up that says that safari cancelled my restart. I then press the power button to shut down the computer. When I reboot the computer and open safari, I see all the tabs and windows that were opened when this issue began, only this time safari isn't frozen. This problem started yesterday.
    Has anyone experienced the same problem? Is there a fix for this problem?

    Try Resetting Safari: Open Safari. Cick on the name Safari in the menu bar. In the drop down menu click Reset Safari.

    How to remove black "blocked plug-in" window that opens with iPhoto. It covers iPhoto and everything under it. I've right and left clicked the black window, restarting the computer, shutting down the computer, but the window always appears when I open iPhoto and it will not move or go away. It stays on my screen (covering my desktop icons) even after I quit iPhoto. How can I get it off my screen?

    Which version if iPhoto and MacOS X do you have?
    Do you have any iPhoto plug-ins  installed?
    Open the folder /Library/Application Support/iPhoto/Plugins/
    To navigate to that folder, open the folder "Library" directly on your Macintosh HD, then inside the Library folder go to Application Support, then iPhoto.  Is there anything installed?

  • Does not start, but when I shut down the computer then the browser shows up right before sytem shuts down.

    I am having problems with Firefox. When I click on the shortcut, or the .exe file nothing happens. I check task manager to see if it is running and it does not show Firefox is running.
    But when I shut down the computer then the browser shows up right before the computer shuts down. I have tried starting the browser in safe mode and the same thing happens. I cannot give any troubleshooting info because the browser is not visible for me to click on help or any other button.

    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox and any leftover program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps one by one:
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu) and confirm all upcoming messages.
    #Now, uninstall Firefox by following the steps mentioned in the [[Uninstall Firefox from your computer#w_uninstall-firefox|Uninstall Firefox]] article.
    '''IMPORTANT:''' On Windows, the uninstaller has the option to remove your personal data and settings. Make sure that you do '''not''' check this option; otherwise all of your bookmarks, passwords, extensions, user customizations and other Firefox [[Profiles|user profile data]] will be removed from your computer.
    After uninstalling Firefox on Windows, delete the "Mozilla Firefox" program folder, located by default in one of these locations:
    * '''(On 32-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox''
    * '''(On 64-bit Windows)''' ''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox''
    #Go to the Windows Start menu and click on "Computer".
    #In the Explorer window that opens, double click Local Disk (C:) to open the C:\ drive.
    #Find the "Program Files (x86)" folder or "Program Files" folder.
    #* On 32-bit Windows, double-click the '''Program Files''' folder to open it.
    #* On 64-bit Windows, you will see a "Program Files (x86)" folder AND a "Program Files" folder. Open the '''Program Files (x86)''' folder.
    #Look for a '''Mozilla Firefox''' folder. If you find one, right-click it and select ''Delete'' and confirm that you want to move the folder to the Recycle Bin.
    Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    #Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    #Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.

    Crash report aplication what is that ? When shut the computer this Message appeared The application crash repórter Dont Let shut down the computer

    Command-Option-Escape does the same as
    Apple Menu > Force Quit...
    It opens a floating box that lists current major Applications and their status (e.g., Not responding) and allows you to force quit any single Application or re-launch the Finder.

  • I have an Imac.  When I click to open google maps a permeable but dark screen covers my monitor screen and I get a note that tells me to shut down the computer and restart it.  This hasn't helped.  Everything else seems to work fine.

    When I attempt to open google maps in Firefox on my Imac, a dark screens descends over my monitor screen and a note tells me there's been an error, no number is noted, and that I need to turn off and restart my computer.  This doesn't help, but everything else works, including google maps in other browsers.

    This is a kernel panic.
    First verify that Firefox is fully updated including all extensions.
    If this fails to fix....
    Restart in Safe Boot mode then open Firefox.
    *  shutdown
    *  start the Mac and *wait* for the startup chime to sound
    *  after the sound, press and hold down the shift key
    *  keep holding and *wait* until the grey  Apple logo appears
    *  now release the shift key and just wait (it could take a few minutes)
    *  eventually the login screen appears with the words SAFE BOOT
    *  login and open Firefox.
    If you continue to have problems see this article for more options to fix.

  • Hey, when I shut down the computer and close it before it does so, the...

    light on the button for opening the screen (middle front of closed laptop) stays on.
    However if I shut down and wait for the screen to go black before closing it the light does not come on. Needless to say I do not want that light there as if I shut down, close it, and walk away for a day I can only assume some battery is being taken.
    I would like to be able to go the apple, go to shut down, click shut down, and then close it and not have to worry, albeit a minor concern to some.
    Thanks a lot for any assistance!

    Hi-
    If you do not wait for the computer to shut down fully (when the screen goes off), and close the screen, it will go into sleep mode.
    The light will on the front of the computer will fade in and out indicating sleep mode.
    Thas hapened to me a few times, and I realized that it only takes about 5 or 10 seconds to shut down fully. Wait for the screen to go dark and you shouldn't have a problem!

  • When I open up a browser I get an automated voice telling me what website I opened. I want to shut down that feature without shutting down the sound I need for other watching TV or YouTube

    When I have multiple windows I will click on a site and an computerized voice will tell me what the website is. It is as if everything I am doing is getting a voice over from Firefox. I want to disable that aspect without it causing any problems when I actually do need sound like watching shows on TV. Everytime I put the cursor on anything it will tell me what I am doing which I don't need.

    Hi elamothe! It sounds like you just have VoiceOver turned on for your Mac. You can find VoiceOver by going to ''System Preferences->Universal Access->Seeing'' on your Mac, not in Firefox. This will allow you to disable VoiceOver.
    CMD + F5 will toggle the setting as well.
    Hopefully this helps!

    Hi Rambo,
    Thank you for contacting National Instruments.  From the information you have provided here, its sounds like a couple of different things can be causing this issue.  In looking at some previous instances where this error code was reported when using the application builder, it would be worthwhile to look at the file name field and the location the VIs are saved. 
    Take a look at the field where the file name is provided and ensure only the name is in this location.  By this I mean that the file path and name aren't both concatenated and entered here.
    Also, if the VIs are saved in the user library or the vi library see if it makes any difference if they are moved to another directory. 
    I hope this helps!  If not, any other possible information that you have or may come upon would definitely be helpful.  Have a great day!

  • HT1338 Strange problem: the MAC ask me to shut down the computer by click on the start button

    Dear Users,
    I've encountered a strange problem, at least for me with just two years experience on MAC.
    A message is shown on the scren which says:
    "you need to restart your computer, hold down the power button until it turns off then press the power button again"
    it is written in different languages.
    Anyone has got such problem and eventually what I should do?
    Thanks in advance,
    Hamad

    I've done this at least 4 times from yesterday

  • When I open one particular folder to play the games in it the pointer turns into a pinwheel and I cant open the game or close the folder unless I shut down my computer.  Never happened before and does not happen with any other folder on the desktop.

    why does pointer become a pinwheel when I open one particular folder only and prevent me from opening the apps in it and then keep me from closing the folder unless I shut down the computer completely.  I can open all other folders on the desk top without a problem.  My game folder never gave me trouble before.

    Try this. Open one of your files. The window that contains your picture is named at the top. Command click on the name and you'll see the entire path starting with its name and then moving to the folder, the folder it is contained in, etc all the way to down to the hard drive volume name. This should tell you where to find the folder.

  • When I shut down the Mac Pro, it restarts

    Has anyone run into this issue with their Mac Pro? When I shut down the computer (either via the Ctrl + Option + Cmd + Eject or the Shut Down command from the Apple menu drop down), the Mac Pro will simply restart and take me back to my log-in screen.
    At this point, I can hit the shut down button on the login window and it will shutdown, but this is annoying, a waste of time, and unnecessary.
    I have tried performing an SMC reset, but it has not resolved this issue.
    Specs: Mac Pro (2010)
    3.33 GHz 6-Core
    (2) 2TB Internal HDD
    12GB ram
    ATI 5870 graphics card (1GB)

    I have noticed the exact same behaviour. It only happens when I have something plugged into one of the front USB ports (example : external HD, USB key)
    Apparently the system crashes during the shut down process, and then reboots.
    Unfortunately, I have not yet found a solution

  • Manual Shut down of computer required when computer on overnight

    I usually keep my computer on all the time.  Generally, I will press the return key or tap the touchpad to get the computer screen activated.  However, recently I have had to manually shut down the computer to get it to come on.  The computer lights are all on, but I've noticed that the hard disk drive light flickers when I'm not able to turn the screen on.  When the hard disk drive light stays on and doesn't flicker, I can just tap the touchpad or hit the return key to activate the screen.   I've also noticed that at times the hard disk drive light flickers on and off when I'm working on the computer.  Could this possibly be an indication that my hard drive is about to fail?  I haven't had to press the sleep or hibernate key to activate the screen in the morning.  Is it possible that I changed something without knowing it, which might be causing this problem?

    I would recommend not leaving the computer on continuously. There are several reasons not to leave it on. Unless it is doing something, it is just wasting power. Not a lot of power, but still it's a waste. It stresses the components of the computer. No reason for circuits to be up and running continuously. Probably will reduce the computer's lifetime. One benefit of shutting down the computer is that it clears the memory. Even after you close a program, not all of the files get released, so you have unused and unneeded files cluttering up your RAM space and accomplishing nothing. Cluttered RAM means decreased performance. Because the computer is on continuously, so is the fan. The fan is continuously sucking in air to cool the CPU and GPU. Along with that air is the dust and dirt that's in the room. Bottomline, your computer's circuit board gets dustier and dirtier than if the computer had been turned off when not in use. This will lead to over heating and the computer shutting down on it's own.
    The hard drive LED flickering is pretty normal as it reads and writes files. Much of it is automatic and automated. I have my Windows Updates set for automatic, so they happen in the background. Not sure why the screen is not turning on when you tap the Return key. Maybe you have Sleep or Hibernation enabled. Check your Power Options in the Control Panel.
