When I open enough tabs to get the left/right scroll buttons to appear, my entire tabs bar flickers

I finally just upgraded from FF28 this week and am having a very weird problem with the tabs bar. I am attaching a 2-second video because a still screenshot does not capture the issue. Not only is the flashing/flickering uncomfortable visually, but it makes it nearly impossible to click the x to close a tab (I have to right-click and select Close Tab instead).
edit: can't attach a video; uploaded it here:

I'm sorry for this issue. hopefully it is fixed with an upcoming update. I looked at your crash report and one issue that could be causing this is out of date drivers.
" Blocked for your graphics driver version. Try updating your graphics driver to version 10.6 or newer." This error was given many times. Also, as XP gets older, without being supported, it gets harder to make programs (i.e. Firefox) as good as possible while working on older systems.

First, go to the website that you wish to make your Home page. Then click on Safari>Click on Preferences on the dropdown menu>Click on the "General" tab on top of the window which should be on your screen>click on the "Set to Current Page" button which is under the Home Page line. This should solve the problem.

When I open iTunes I keep getting the same speech from the general meeting. How do I delete

When I open iTunes I keep getting the speech of the last general session of new Apple products. The talking is always in the background of any new music I try to play. How do I stopped the speech from always playing in iTunes?

Try to going to the section where the sound is coming from and see if the video or speech is still active for some reason. See if there is a way to quit it.

When i open my computer I get the white screen with apple symbol and there are vertical lines all over the screen with green pixels and after a few minutes the screen gets grey and I get message to restart my computer what happens

3 years ago I bought an IMac Desktop that I am using for a lot of things but the most important for dvd montage in Imovies and Idvd.
Now today when I opened my computer I get as usual the white screen with the Apple symbol but there were all over the screen vertical lines with green pixels and after a while the screen gets grey and I get message to restart my computer using the power button or the restart button and when I do so each time the same is happening somebody can tell me what is happening and what caused this. This computer is my work and now I have no income anymore.
On the Apple support site they are asking to enter the serial number and when I do so I get message it is wrong but it is the only one I have and I buy this computer in Cairo Egypt. I am living in Hurghada in Egypt for the moment. When I call the technical support of the shop where I buy it they are telling me that it is the hard disk or ram and that I probably lost everything on it and they are asking a big amount to repair.
Can somebody advise me on this matter. Thanks in advance

You can find the serial number either in About this Mc in the Menu bar under the , or it should be on a sticker under the foot of the machine.
If you have the install discs, try booting from them, holding down the c key and then using Disk Utility to check the drive.
You can also boot into Safe mode
To start up into Safe Mode (to "Safe Boot"), do this:
   1. Be sure the computer is shut down.
   2. Press the power button.
   3. Immediately after you hear the startup tone, press and hold the Shift key.
      Tip: The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone but not before.
   4. Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple and progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
During the startup in Mac OS X 10.2 through 10.3.9, you will see "Safe Boot" on the Mac OS X startup screen.
During the startup in Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login window, which appears even if you normally log in automatically.
Please post back with results,
To leave Safe Mode in any version of Mac OS X, restart the computer normally, without holding any keys during startup.

TS3276 when I Open my Mail, I get the pinwheel of death and nothing else

When I try to open my mail, I get the pinwheel of death. Nothing happens. I have to force quit

Sounds like you want the "classic layout" (as in, the way Mail looked before Lion). Go to Mail -> Preferences, click the Viewing icon and check "Use classic layout."

When I open iphoto, I only get the spinning color wheel

When I open iphoto, the window is blank and I just get the spinning color wheel. I have OSX 10.6.8. The last time I used iphoto I had deleted over 100GB of photos (they were backed up to an external hard drive). Now I just get the spinning wheel. I have to force quit to shut it down.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Is it possible to switch the left-right scrolling behavior in Prelude?

On my Apple magic mouse I can scroll left and right with the flick of a finger for items that are too wide to fit on the screen, such as the list of columns in the Project pane. The behavior in Prelude is to move opposite to the finger flick - in other words if I flick my finger to the right, it will move the columns to the right as the scroll bar at the bottom moves to the left. This is the opposite behavior of Premiere in the same Project panel. In Premiere, if you flick to the right, it's as if you are flicking the scroll bar. When working with both programs at the same time, it's hard to get used to the inconsistent behavior. I can change my mouse settings to switch the direction, but I cannot make Prelude and Premiere match directions.

Hi Wes, did it really change with the update?
My Premiere and Prelude panel scrolling behavior still differ.
In Premiere, when I scroll to the right on my trackpad, I move forward in time.
In Prelude it's reversed.
How to set it? Can't find an option in the Preferences.

I want to set up a roaming network. I have directions. I have an extreme set up and working. I need to add an express. When I open airport utility I get the internet pic of internet and the base station. How do a get to the setting screens?

Directions require that I change settings on the base station on the screen that interent connection, TCP/IP DHCP NAT how do I get to that screen through airport utility.
Then I need to for my express to get to the screen the screen for wireless.
This has changed since last time I did this.
How do I get to the screens.

Your existing Extreme might already be configured in Bridge Mode. As long as the Extreme is working now, do not change any settings on the Extreme.
Apple incorrectly assumes that all users are connecting to a simple modem when most users are connecting to gateway devices....combination modem/routers.
You probably are as well and Bridge Mode would be the correct setting when connecting to that type of device.

I have downloaded Firefox 4 and when I open Firefox again I get the message that my version is not safe from online attacks, so why?

I opened Firefox and got the message that I needed to download 4 because my version was not safe from attacks. I downloaded 4 and then I quit Firefox and reopened it, and got the same message as before. I am probably doing something incorrectly, but I have no idea what that could be.
Thanks.

When i open a pdf i get the following error message -

the exception unknown software exception (0xc0000409) occurred in the application at location 0x0041212b.

First thing I would try is update to 11.0.4. If that doesn't solve the problem, some more things you can try...
Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html
Message was edited by: Pat Willener - updated file path for Windows XP.

I have updated firefox 2 times since the last upgrade, but when I open it I still get the message "You are not on the latest version of Firefox Upgrade Now". I have downloaded and installed it so I'm stumped. Any suggestions?

I am running Windows XP

This - http://www.google.com/firefox - is the old Firefox Start Page used by the Firefox 3.6 and earlier versions of Firefox, I don't think it is being maintained by Google.
Starting with the Firefox 4 version, Firefox is using a "local" Start Page with the address of '''about:home'''. It looks similar to the old Start Page, but it isn't exactly the same.

HT4059 I downloaded iBooks 3 but when I open it I still get the Version 2 with no (notes/highlight or text size feature). Any advice?

thanks for the help

some more info which would most likely help...
i am in south africa and currently on the mtn network,network is fine as no one else is experiencing internet problems.
also currently after doing everything i could think of,my iphone 4s is now just saying searching constantly....no service whatsoever no matter what i do.
super fruuuuuuussssstratiiiingggggg!!!!!!!!!!

I downloaded FF4 and when it opened it doesn't show the new Single Firefox button in the upper left hand corner. I still have the traditional Windows buttons.

This is on a Windows 7 machine. I like the new layout and it shows up on my Windows Vista laptop at home. Would just like to have the new layout.

To get it you need to hide the menu bar. To do that in the View menu select Toolbars, then click on the "Menu Bar" entry.
If you need access to the menus you can press either Alt or F10 to temporarily display them.

I am a newbie to this phone, but when I swipe my home page to the left an Amazon products screen appears. I need to make that go away because it is limitting my apps.

Can someone please advise me about how to get rid of that Amazon screen. I have no idea where it came from anyway.
Many thanks

swipe to the right, a few screens have plenty of room.

When I open my iMac, I get this message - Your Mac OS X startup disk has no more space available for application memory. ???????

When I open my iMac, I get the following message : Your Mac OS X startup disk has no more space available for application memory. Then it says to quit applications not in usw and to close windows and remove files from startup disk. It lists Safari, email and Finder. I force a quit on all applications yet the same message comes up every time I open an application. What do I do to get rid of this once and for all? The computer is not even two years old and is only used for email and Safari. Help will be greatly appreciated,

The message has nothing to do with low disk space.
There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
Not enough memory for your usage pattern
Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
These instructions are for OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks.") The procedure may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
from the menu bar.
If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
The processes named "Safari Web Content" render web pages for Safari. They use a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider them prime suspects.
Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, remove the software. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
"Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.
