When I close out Firefox, it arears to close. It returnes me to Desktop; however, it does not close. It keeps running, and because of this, I cannot open it up again without opening the Task Manager and ending the process first. What is causing this?

Firefox works fine except for the hicup of not shutting down. If you don't know what is happening, you won't know why it won't open up.

    The situation with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 and version earlier than it (in particular 3.0/3.0.2) is disturbing with regard to MPEG2 Activation.
    Adobe document says that it no longer supports MPEG2 Activation for versions 8.0/8.0.1 and earlier and points the users of this group of products to a version later than 8.0/8.0.1, the current latest version 12.
    But, I am not sure of the real answer. The doubts are cast by the findings of some who have claimed to have solved the problem using a uninstall/ccleaner/reinstall scheme when they have been met by the MPEG2 Activation issue.
    But, I would ask....Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your Windows 7 64 bit computer? And, are you working with version 3.0 as the 3.0.2 Update?
    Is it still possible to run your Premiere Elements 3.0/3.0.2 on the prior computer on which it was installed?
    Also, does your Windows 7 64 bit come with Windows XP Mode
    Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7
    which is essentially a virtual Windows XP Professional SP3 32 bit.
    As last resort, and highly experimental, but would you have time to experiment by replacing your latest version of QuickTime with the QuickTime Alternative 1.8.1 and then determining what happens with your Premiere Elements 3.0/3.0.2  Windows 7 64 bit situation? Do not bother with the MPEG Streamclip program download, just the QuickTime Alternative 1.8.1.

    Double tap the Home button to bring up the multi-tasking bar...tap & hold any app until they all start to wiggle...tap the red minus sign to remove every app shown. Tap the Home button when finished. Try to delete the app now.

  • I have Mac OS X version 10.7.5 and I need to open a secure website to look at DA forms and army regulations but every time I try and open the page it says safari cannot open the page. What do I need to do to open the page?

    Cannot open some sites. Need help!!!

    Have you tried Firefox? That usually is an alternative to Internet Explorer (some web sites are still Windows-centric).
    I've also had success with Opera to access some sites where other browsers have had issues.

  • Firefox will not open because it thinks it is open, but task manager says it is not open.

    I cannot get firefox to open. If I try to uninstall it says I must close it. If I try to download it it says I must close it.

    Sounds like Firefox is "hanging at exit". That problem is frequently caused by an Extension or a Plugin. Read all of the following articles.<br /><br />
    NOTE: Establish a habit of exiting/closing Firefox with Firefox button > Exit or File > Exit to allow an orderly shutdown of Firefox and closing of all of the files that Firefox has open.

  • AVG says your server messed up my Verizon Yahoo email. The line that reads delete, move, not spam, more...does not load. I can see my email, I just cannot open

    I just spent over 5 hours in computer share with AVG. They said your server messed up my email account. I can get to my email account, but the line that reads "delete, move, not spam, more" never loads...therefore, I cannot delete email or anything else. My email account is at verizon yahoo. I need access to my email for various reasons, one of them being I pay many bills online and my email account is where I get certification that the payment went through!! My email will work through IE, though. I do not want to utilize IE to see my email...I use Firefox for everything and it would be a pain in the butt to have to switch to IE to access my email. Not to mention, I loathe IE--it's like using WEBTV! It's soooooo slow.... [email address removed, please do not post sensitive information in a public forum] is my email...

    Did the support person have you do the usual:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove your Yahoo.com cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Any improvement?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?

  • Save as pdf/image does not work. It runs and runs ... Getting no output

    In APEX 4.0 i have several Charts (Version 5.1.3).
    If i try to save them to PDF or to an image file the request runs and runs and don't come back with a result.
    Any ideas?
    Regards
    Stephan

    Hi Hillary,
    i can choose the file name and the destination for the PDF and when i confirm with the save button the page shows "Saving ..." and nothing happens.
    In the target destination i see that there is a file (FlashTmp0.tmp) with ~ 2.49 KB.
    I copied the page with chart to a new one but i have the same problem with it.
    But wait. I opened this FlashTmp0.tmp file and i saw that there is a attempt to access anychart.com which is denied by our firewall.
    Will the PDF be generated by the anychart.com page?
    And what i also established is when i delete some conditions in my SQL query the creation of the pdf works. F.e. in dial chart i have this query which works with pdf if i comment out the last (or more) line(s):
    SELECT COUNT (*) VALUE, 300 MAX, 50 LOW, 300 HIGH
    FROM plm61prod.t_pro_dat
    WHERE typ = 'CAL'
    AND entwk_erpppty >= TO_DATE ('2009-01-01', 'YYYY-MM-DD')
    AND REGEXP_INSTR (
    UPPER (sp_nummer),
    'A') = 0
    AND t_pro_dat.cur_flag = 'y'
    /*AND TO_CHAR (entwk_erpppty, 'YYYY') = TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'YYYY')*/

  • My photoshop cc will not start up, it loads up but doesn't start. Open up task manager and it says its "not responding". Any help?

    Tried to open my Photoshop CC app but the app is not responding. App goes through the motions of loading but never opens. I've used the App before with no issues, this is my third month using the Creative Cloud. Any help would be useful, Thanks.

    For anything beyond that you will have to provide proper technical information like system specs, which you haven't done so far.

  • I cannot open the editor.

    I bought the disc.  Installed it, registered it and now cannot get into the editor.  I was able to earlier.  Following the forum discussion, I downloaded a trial version and put in my serial number.  Of course it uninstalled the program I had loaded with the disc.  I still cannot open the editor.  What do I do?

    gephart41
    Please tell us what version of Premiere Elements that you have and on what computer operating system it is running on. If your "editor" represents Photoshop Elements, you have posted in the wrong forum.
    Whatever the case, I would start with a "clean slate". Uninstall the program via Control Panel route, do a ccleaner run through to get rid of any leftovers from incomplete uninstalls reinstalls, and the reinstall the program with anti-virus and firewalls disabled.

    The above is assuming a Windows computer in use. Suggestions will be fine tuned after you supply the appropriate background information regarding program and computer.

    Are the three ebooks that you have purchased in PDF format ? If not, then Adobe Reader will not be able to open them. If those are PDF files, then Adobe Reader should definitely open them and we would like to help you make it work. Let us know.
