When downloading TV episodes or movies, the download hangs at "processing file" and I have to force quit ITunes.
I have downloaded the new version of Itunes, but it did not help.
Hi Aukele1Kilauea,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I would suggest restarting your computer and then following the steps below:

Screen Saver doesn't allow SOURCE SELECTION but automatically begins to download unknown files. I have to force quit, but it does the same thing each time I try to select a source.
Do you realize that you're talking to yourself?

When my MyBook external drive (where I keep my music) is connected to my Mac, iTunes stops responding upon startup. I have to force quit iTunes, disconnect the iBook, restart iTunes and plug the iBook back in.

Is there an option that someone knows about that would keep this from happening?
no, if iTunes can't find its drive/folder, it defaults to creating one within your Home directory's Music folder.
If anyone knows a way I send a product suggestions to apple please let me know, as I have a few that would like to suggest.
under the iTunes menu choose the Feedback menuItem. -

Every time I close a document on Pages the software crashes and I have to force quit. Then I restart the program and all the docs that were up at the time of the crash reappear. I haven't lost any work yet but it's super annoying to have to restart everytime I try to close a doc. Any ideas on how to fix this problem?
Do you have Pages '09?
Have you tried that? If so what happens?

It started when I was downloading PDFs then it moved to any kind of folder. It doesn't freeze it just doesn't load for 10 mins. I have to force quit and try again. Sometimes it fixes it but other times it doesn't. This has been happening since i upgraded my mac to the Firefox 6.0.2
Where are you creating folders -- inside your home folder, or outside it?

After attempting to move songs from my iTunes library to my iPod Classic, the pinwheel kept spinning and iTunes froze. I tried pressing CTRL E to eject the iPod, but nothing happened. I unplugged the iPod then force quit iTunes, but when I checked my iPod all of the songs had been deleted. I tried plugging the iPod back in and slowly moved music over again, but iTunes still froze. I don't want to restore it to factory settings because I am afraid of losing the pictures I have on there and can't figure out how to get them off.
Are you using a Macbook?
If all your songs on the iPod are deleted, most likely the photios are gone too.
Unless you put the photos, via Diskmode.
To recover the photos that you've put in Diskmode, use Finder to locate where it is in the iPod.
Try also if iPhoto can locate those photos. -
Using latest version of iMovie. Have two external harddrives for my movies. Decided to finally allow "generate thumbnails" run. While running, it says it can't find a couple clips and gets hung up - have to force quit. What can I do?. Also, anyway to speed things up? Loading takes forever. Thanks for any help!
To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step. -
When I open pages, it immediately hangs up and I have to force quit.
When I open pages from the dock, the page comes up on my screen but immediately hangs up with the little revolving circle. I have to force quit finally to get the page to go off my screen. This is sporodic. Sometimes it works and sometime it does not.
The Problem Report which I had was: "Pages quit unexpectedly while using the SFWordProcessing plugin".
I'm using iWork '09 in OSX Lion 10.7.4
Here are all the things I tried:
Deleting preference files
Deleting iWork Pages caches
Restoring preferences from yesterday's version in Time Machine
Finding the SFWordProcessing plugin in HD/Library/Application Support/iWork '09/Frameworks
Restoring the SFWordProcessing plugin from yesterday's version in Time Machine
Using Disk Utility to repair permissions (none needed)
Using Disk Utility to verify the HD (no problems found)
Scanning the HD for malware with ClamXav (none found)
Showing package contents of Pages and restoring items from yesterday's versions in Time Machine
Opening Pages (successfully) from another user account
The problem occurred after trying to open (convert) a 125-page MSWord document. Pages appeared to hang but was just slow. After opening the file Pages did hang. I right-clicked on the Pages icon in the dock and, seeing 'Application not responding' selected 'Force Quit. Thereafter I had the problem with Pages hanging on opening. I then moved the MSWord document to another location while I discussed with the trusted colleague who'd e-mailed it to me what to do with it.
Eventually, after trying all of the approaches above (mostly suggestions from Apple Community help pages) I somehow stumbled upon what was causing the problem and how to clear it...
In Finder pull down on the 'Go' menu
Select 'Go to Folder'
Type in ~/Library/ which takes you to your user Library (a hidden folder)
In my user Library I found a folder called 'Autosave Information'
Delete anything in this folder associated with iWork Pages
Voilá! -
Have to force quit iTunes 98% of the time
It did not improve with iTunes 8.
Every time i go to the iTunes store (purchase or not) when I want to quit iTunes I get the beach ball and the fan kicks on until I force quit. Much of the time just listing to music the same thing occurs.
Tips?I'm also having a similar problem with iTunes 8.0.1 on Leopard 10.5.5
It consistently freezes when I'm using the iTunes Store. I'm usually able to browse the store and if I find what I'm looking for and make the purchase I can quit iTunes normally, if I leave the store before it freezes. If I wait for iTunes to freeze I'm unable to force quit, access the terminal, taskbar or anything else. I have to force the power off and reboot in order to use the computer again once I experience the freeze.
I had the good fortune to have two identical iMacs and have the problem on both. I've done a clean install on both computers and continue to have the problem on both after clean installs. The problem appeared shortly after the release of iTunes 8.0 on the first computer. I almost miss my Windows Vista Ultimate computer (almost). -

For the past week or so, Firefox has been freezing multiple times per day. Each time, I have to force quit the program. I tried resetting the plug-ins and add-ons and things, I uninstalled and re-installed Adobe Flash Player, and I uninstalled and re-installed Firefox itself--none of these things has worked. I really don't want to stop using Firefox, but it is currently unusable. Can someone help?

This started happening after I attempted to download my property tax report from the county. I will get the page I actually wanted to download but I also get page after page of unwanted material downloaded to my MacBook. The only way I can stop the massive page download is to force quite the MacBook and then restart it and delete all the unwanted pages.
I have updated my firefox files as directed, is there anything else I can or should do?

Since I downloaded the last update for Firefox, it freezes and I have to force quit.
Once I force quit, everything works fine until I open Firefox again.
I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, since it also freezes when I try to open other sites, but I also switched to the new Yahoo mail in the last couple of weeks.I am still having the same problem. There have been two Firefox updates since my post, but there is no change.
