Hello,
What have you tried so far?
Can you try reinstalling Firefox? Uninstall it from your Control Panel > Programs and Features/Add or Remove Programs (if you want to keep your bookmarks and other information, do '''not''' delete personal information). After uninstalling, delete the Mozilla Firefox folder to remove any damaged files leftover from the uninstall (your profile is in a different location so will be unaffected by this):
* (32 bit installation) C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
* (64 bit installation) C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
Download and reinstall the latest copy:
* https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/

My computer is authorized, but when I try to open a recently downloaded audio file I get asked for my "Audible username and password" and my AppleID and password do not work

My computer is authorized, but when I try to open a recently downloaded audio file I get asked for my "Audible username and password" and my AppleID and password do not work.

thats because audible isnt apple provided, its a third party app/website so you'll have to get it from them

When I try to install flash player on my mac, I get to the panel that asks for my name and password, and it will not take my password. tried changing to a new password and same result

When I try to install flash player on my Mac, I get to the panel that asks for my name and password, but it will not take my password. Tried changing the password, but same result. Suggestions??

This password prompt is presented by your operating system, and is intended to keep you from accidentally installing software.
If this is your personal machine and you don't need a password to log into the computer when it first starts up, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to get past this prompt. If this is your personal machine and your normal password isn't working, check to make sure that CAPS LOCK is off, and type the password carefully.
If this is your work machine and it's asking for an Administrator password, well, you'll need to have a conversation with your friendly IT person.

Keep getting "loading/waiting" message when I try to download or update anything on my iPad. I have tried signing out and in. Turning iPad off and on, left it off overnight, and spoken with iPad support, nothing. Any help out there?

Keep getting a "loading/waiting" message when I try to download/update anything. Sometimes something will download. I have signed out and turned the thing off and back on, signed in and no help. I have did the sleep button and home button thing, no help. I have talked to iPad support and so far, no help. Any ideas out there?

If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.
If that doesn't work:
• Log out of your iTunes store account. Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
• Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
• After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

Alright, I figured it out. I found the Preferences.plist in the ~/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration folder. I deleted it and restarted my macbook. Now Safari works!

My ipod touch is telling me that the skype and twitter apps need updating. When I try to run them they fail. I have tried deleting the apps via itunes but it doesn't work and I have tried updating the apps via itunes and it says they are updated.

My ipod touch is telling me that the Skype and Twitter apps need updating. When I try to update them they both fail. I have tried numerous times. I have tried connecting the ipod to itunes and removing the apps, to reload them but that does not work either. If I try and update the apps through itunes the system tells me they are updated. Can anyone assist please?

When I try to open any applications on my Macbook Pro (including finder) the cursor just spins and nothing happens.

It loads as if nothing were wrong, but when I try to click on any program, the cursor just spins and spins. Even when I click the Apple in the upper left corner nothing happens. The cursor just spins. When I hit the keys for force quit, nothing happens. Nothing will open.
I've loaded it in Safe mode, verified the disk (it was okay), and verified and repaired permissions and I am still having issues. When I load in Safe mode, all applications work just fine. I've deleted all contents of my downloads folder (before my computer messed up, the last thing downloaded on my computer was a word document from my friend's email that she'd opened on previous computers with no issue). I don't know what else to do. I have Windows loaded on my Mac and can log-in the Windows side with no problems (that's how I've been using my computer since my Mac side has stopped working).
I'm running version 10.6.8.
Any help would be appreciated!

Have same username and password for Apple and iCloud. Main email server is btinternet with different username and password. When I try to share a photo using iCloud email I get message that "email server didn't recognise username/password combo". Help.

I have the same username and password for my Apple account and iCloud. My main email server is btinternet. When I try to share a photo by sending an email by iCloud I get a message "Server doesn't recognize username/password combination". Do I need to login to iCloud with my btinternet password?

Seeing others with same problem I have gone into iPhoto>Preferences>Accounts and changed password to btinternet password. It worked. Thanks.

Firefox keeps running in the backround after closing it, it just lingers there, and when I try to restart firefox, it says that I have to close the current one or restart my system to clear the last firefox. what can I do, thanks...

After the last update, my IBM Clone computer does not close the session of firefox when clicking on "close" it clears the screen back to the desktop but firefox continues to hang there in the backround and will not allow another session of firefox to start until the first session is closed. The only way to reconnect is to do a restart on my system, and then the old firefox session is closed and the new session will start.

Must be the "hang at exit" problem. <br /><br />

Since loading the new version of Firefox it will not open. When I try to download Firefox 4 or older versions I get a messase that says I must close Firefox first. Everything else is closed!

A new version of Firefox downlaoded the other day and now Firefox will not open at all. I tried to redownload version 4 and an earlier version (3.6) but I get a message that says that "Firefox must be close first in order to continue". There was no other box open at that time. What can I do to get Firefox to work?

Hey, thanks for the info. Upon further reading into the help section, I realized that I had to uncheck spybot tea timer to get the downloads to save & open. Wish I had read that a couple of months back... Works fine now anywho, thank you for your response.
Have a good one!

I'm using Windows 8. I have 2 folders in my videos library - movies and personal videos. When I try to import a movie into iTunes, it puts it in the Home Video section and if I import a personal video, it puts it into the home video section. what up?

Im using Win8. I originally had all my ripped movies in a movie folder listed in the videos library. This imported into iTunes movies with no issue. I later added a second folder t my library - personal videos where i put all my home videos. I was able to import this into iTunes and it showed up in "Home Movies" - very cool and exactly what I wanted. Now, if I add a new ripped movie and put it in my movie librairy and try to import it into iTunes, it places it in Home Movies. And if I put a new personal video, it will also import into iTunes under 'Home Video?. What is going on here?? Any help would be greatly appreciated - it seems like this is a bug in iTunes 11.

I thank you for the response. Apple does some assinine things sometimes and this is one of them. Ask the planet the difference between a movie and a home video and with the exception of Apple, you'd get 100% consenus on the what difference is. A home video is something that I shoot, like my kids birthday party. A movie is something I urchased either via download or a DVD that I ripped. Unbelievable! The fact that Apple has chosen not to distinguish based upon which folder I tell it is Movies and which folder is Home Videos is really hard to fathom - sounds like something Windows would do. I find it funny that in my iTunes movies sub-section of the movies section, the movie icons have a cloud icon in upper right corner to distinguish it as bought from Apple iTunes versus no cloud icon for movies that I have ripped - so the distintion was already made and clearly visible. Now - everything just defaults to "home videos" if I try to import a new ripped DVD - why even bother to have this distinction on the iTunes bar? WOW!
As for your direction, I do not understand what you are telling me - what Media Kind and what Options tab are you referring to? I see no Options tab in iTunes. Right licking on the movie icon does not yield media kind or options as well. Gping to the source file does not yield these options either.
Thanks again for your help.
Clay
