When I attempt to download .exe or movietype files, they downlaod and then disappear. If usoing "Run", they show download, but do not rub

Suddenly, I have found that I am not able to download and either save oor run any type of files (except .txt). The screen shows themdownlaoding, but they neither "save" nor "run". have searched (including hidden files), but they do not exist upon the computer

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.<br />
You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.<br />
Do not forget to re-enable the scanning in your anti-virus software after you are finished with downloading and installing.<br />

  • My ipad 2 under photos/ photo stream put all my pics in one folder. Now when I pull up photo stream I have to tap pic and then it opens all my pics. It use to not do that.

    Ipad 2 now puts my pics under photo stream in one folder s when I open it up I have to tap the folder to open all my pics. It use to not do that?

    Hello Patrick1000,
    This is expected behavior when you have "Shared Photo Streams" turned on. With Shared Photo Streams, you are able to create separate Photo Streams to share with others (notice the "+" at top left corner). If you wish to disabled this feature, please see below:
    iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    On your iOS devices, go to Settings > iCloud > Photo Stream, and turn off My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    how can i sycn my iphone to iturn my ipod will  but not the iphone?

    That's nice, the device is listed on your Apple profile.
    That has absolutely nothing to do with syncing to a computer.
    Try a different USB port.
    Restart the device.
    Restart the computer.

  • I hv a 3GS iphone. it could not be boot up.  When i press the sleep/wake button, the apple logo appeared for a while and then disappear.  My phone could not be start up.  When i go to itune, it does not have the logo for me to sync.

    I have a iphone3GS.  It could not be boot up.  When i press the sleep/wake button, the apple logo appear and then disappear.  The password login screen didnt' come on.  When i tried to connect my phone to the itune on my laptop, there isnt this button that i can sync my phone with the laptop.

    Sounds like your iPhones software may be corrupt. Try placing the iPhone into recovery mode. To do this, follow the steps in this article:

  • What is up with downloading ring tones, they appear, and than disappear?

    I updated my Iphone software, brought some ringtones, they appeared and then disappeared?  Any idea if Apple is fixing this problem?  I have reported the problem.

    Hi there. Sorry you're having trouble with your iPhone.
    You shouldn't be getting a message about being connected to wifi, unless you haven't gotten the apps downloaded to your computer. Check the apps section of iTunes. Make sure you are running the latest version of iTunes on your PC/Mac and iOS on your iPhone. Try unchecking "Sync Apps" and "Sync Music" and then re-check them, as this should delete and restart the syncing of those items. You'll want to make sure that you have verified your iPhone to have your purchased content on it, also, otherwise it will not work.

  • Why when I opened pages app on my iPad we're the documents there and then disappeared?  Now they are gone!

    Can anyone tell me why when I opened the pages app all my documents were there and then disappeared.  Now they are gone!!!!  How can I get them back?

    Try this:
    1) On a web browser (on a computer, not on an iPad) go to iCloud.com
    2) sign in with your Apple ID and password.
    3) Once you are signed in, select the orange 'Pages' icon.
    4) If there are welcome screens, continue until you get to Pages web version
    5) Are your documents showing there?
    If yes, delete Pages app from your iPad, and reinstall it. Your documents should reappear when you open it after installing. If no, then the only possibility would be if you have previously made a back up on your computer with iTunes.

  • When I attempt to open firefox an error message appears telling me that firefox is already running, but I can't find it running. How do I do so or in any case close the already running Firefox process?

    When I attempt to open Firefox instead of Firefox opening, an error message appears saying "Firefox is already running but isn't responding. To open another window please close the existing Firefox process or restart the system.", but I can't find that process of Firefox in order to kill it, and after restarting the system there is still the problem. I have found an emergency fix to at least get online, and that is to use"Firefox_Profile_Manager" in the start menu's "run" start menu, but the
    Firefox that then opens is that one doesn't carry over what I had in my bookmarks but starts bookmarks anew.

    Sounds like it is hanging when you exit and later try to restart Firefox.

  • I downloaded mountain lion and then the new office suite (word, ppt, excel) but now when I try to display one of my ppt's it says 'ppt cannot open the file...the file may be corrupt, in use, not a type recognized by ppt etc.." how can I fix it?? HELP

    I downloaded mountain lion and then the new office suite (word, ppt, excel) but now when I try to display one of my ppt's it says 'ppt cannot open the file...the file may be corrupt, in use, not a type recognized by ppt etc.." how can I fix it?? HELP

    Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
    If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office.

  • I downloaded and installed Production Premuim CS5 on my computer and when I try to open it out of the applications folder it bounces at the bottom and then disappears.

    I downloaded and installed Production Premuim CS5 on my computer and when I try to open it out of the applications folder it bounces at the bottom and then disappears. Does anyone know why this is? I've tried everything to open them but they will not open. Does anyone else have this problem?

    I have a mac osx version 10.9.2. I used to have the student version of creative cloud cs6 earlier this year. I cancelled my subscription several months ago and bought cs5 two weeks ago. I never had any problems with the cloud. I went through the entire download process for CS5, and they all showed up in my applications folder and appeared to have downloaded but every time I try to open them they bounce around next to the application manager icon and then disappear.
