When I load browser, I get a meesage saying there is an important update and to click on it, is that ok?
Even though the message has the Firefox logo, it makes me uneasy, as Firefox usually updates automatically.
Google the exact phrase? How long have you had FF? If it looks significantly different from past notices that there is a new version of FF, I would not respond. Are you using the current version? Under tools, options, advanced, there are options about how FF will check for updates. Perhaps by turning some of these off, you can gain insight into what you are up against.

I am being asked for the password for my btinternet account however when I enter it I get a message saying there is an error in the internet accounts preference pane. How can I resolve this?
BT have made some changes to their email services recently (http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44789/) so you may be having problems because of this. I was certainly having problems, although I don't think that they were exactly the same as yours, and resolved it by creating a new account called something new. If you haven't deleted any mail from the BT webmail, when you create a new account on your Mac, it will mirror everything on webmail as it is an IMAP account. Once you are happy that the new account is working properly and that you haven't lost any messages, you can delete the old account.

I have I-Cloud back up on 2 phones that I no longer have, when I go to delete its says do you want to delete and turn off back. Does that mean turn off back up on the phone I use now or just that phone that I no longer use? Thanks for any advice, Buckspc
Not a big issue : Just delete the old backups and if the backup option turns off o your current device, then just turn it on again.

Any thoughts...?? Anyone have this issue and have an answer to it...???
There is a security update for Firefox (Firefox 10.0.2) which you should apply. Unfortunately, it looks as if the updater on your Firefox is messing up somehow.
The easiest way to work around this and get you secure is to go to [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com], and download the latest version of Firefox there. After it downloads, go ahead and run the installer over your current Firefox. None of your settings will be changed, but it will apply the security fix, and you will be all good to go! -
This happens when no other processes are running. Looks to me like their should be a option in the message to stop the running process.
Sounds like Firefox is "hanging at exit".<br /><br />

Everytime I try to download iTunes I get this error message saying, "This Installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it.or contact the vendor to verify that this is a valid windows Installer package.
I had this same issue occur today during update, searched and finally tracked to problem with windows registry. Used online version of windows registry tool "Fix It" (can also download portable version for offline check. I selected Apple updater utility from list to fix and it did it's thing. Returned to my downloaded 10 iTunes adn isntalled perfectly fine.

Good luck. Worked for me back up and running. -
i think i may have caused this wheni inadvertently pressed upgrade when i had an internet explorer message appear.
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

I am trying to edit a home movie on iMovies on a mac book air. The movie is on a dvd but when I try to import the movie onto iMovies I get a message saying there are no importable files. I've downloaded the macx converter software but I can't seem to download the movie into that either.
Chris , thanks for the prompt reply. The dvd was produced by a third party that I found on line . I had a number of old mini digital video cassettes from a Sony Handycam. I can play the DVD's on my laptop but I can't edit them on iMovies to delete a lot of the rubbish on them. I have five DVD's and three downloaded without any problem but the last two are according to iMovies non importable.
