When I turn on firefox the sound of an alarm begins and keeps going. I did not download or add or open anything. A sound like the old pacman game initiates the never ending alarm. It does not occur with safari and ends if I close firefox.

== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== I opened firefox

dont have google open in a tab!!!!!!!!
(if you are one who opens FF and it opens google then immediately open another tab to go to a site then just visit the site from the page that opened without opening a new tab)
OR
if you have cool preview then disable that
(the sound is for the celebration of 30 years of pacman and you can play the game on google's homepage)

  • When I transfer a playlist which I modified song ending times, it does not transfer to idvd project. Any suggestions?

    When I transfer a playlist, where I modified the songs ending times, it does not transfer as edited to my idvd slide show project. It reverts back to original song times. I am trying to edit songs to match slide show segments.
    Any suggestions?

    Use Garageband to edit the songs. Save them as new files for use with your slide show.  The modifications made in iTunes do not modify the song files, they only tell iTunes how to play the songs.

  • How do I download Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Pro?  It says that I have to disable my antivirus software but I never installed one. Does it come with the Mac in the first place?

    How do I download Adobe Flash Player on my MacBook Pro?  It says that I have to disable my antivirus software but I never installed one. Does it come with the Mac in the first place? If so, how can I disable it or get Adobe Flash Player?

    That message is just a standard one issued, mainly for Windows users, you can disregard it if you didn't install any anti-virus. (OS X has one installed by Apple that doesn't interfere)
    It's just some forms of anti-malware are really paranoid and lock the entire machine down. (like Norton)

  • I presently use an older AirPort Extreme but my reception comes & goes does this occur with the new extreme?

    I presently use an older AirPort Extreme but my reception comes & goes. Does this occur with the newer version?

    1)  If the reception comes and goes as a result of wireless interference from other sources in your home and around the home...other wireless networks in the neighborhood....or...nearby cordless phones.....then a new router is likely to experience the same issues. See this Apple support document for symptoms and fixes of wireless interference.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1365
    2) If the reception comes and goes as a result of an aging power supply in the older AirPort Exteme or another component that is intermittently acting up, then a new router should take care of that.
    What we cannot tell you is whether 1) or 2) applies to your situation.  If possible, it would be good idea to take the older AirPort to an Apple Store or Apple Servicer....if you have one near you....to let them take a look.

  • Every time I turn the computer off or put it in sleep mode... when I come back my wallpaper is gone. I have to keep going to my pics and getting it back. Does anyone know why this keeps happening??

    Every time I turn the computer off or put it in sleep mode... when I come back my wallpaper is gone. I have to keep going back to my pics and getting it back.
    Does anyone know why this keeps happening??

    Are you choosing it from one of these folders (in my screenshot) or you can also put that picture into the correct folder. The path is:
    HD > Library > Desktop Pictures
    If you add it to the folder manually, please restart your computer.
    And yes, letting it sleep is a good idea, or else the startup disk will spin and the screen may suffer from image persistence if you leave a window or image parked in the same spot too long, so the screensave is a good idea.

  • Error -200141 when doing buffered events with DAQmx and PCI-6602

    When doing buffered events with DAQmx and PCI-6602 I get error 200141 - Data was overwritten before it could be read by the system.
    This error is generated ONLY with random inputs >200/sec.
    My setup is :
    DAQmxCreateCIVCountEdges(taskhandle,"Dev1/ctr3"....
    DAQmxCG+FGSampClkTiming(taskhandle,"/Dev1/FPI35",...
    DAQmxSetCICountEgdesChan(taskhandlem,"", "/Dev1/80MHZTimeBase")
    DAQmxSetChanAttribute(taskhandlw,",",DAQmx_CI_DataXferMech,DAQmx_Val_DMA,0);
    Can somebody help ?

    i'm getting the same Error-200141, while reading semiperiods. (Meas_Buffered semiperiod continous)
    while loop ex.rate seems to be pulsewidth*no.Samples to read. in my case PW=60ms
    Input buffer size measured with Property node= 10000
    why this error happens?? i cant use any mode other than implicit timing for semi-period measurement right??
    more info: all the ai channels are used ~ 16 differencial.
    i found one solution which is _ reinitializing the whole task if an error occur. is this the right way??
    Kudos always welcome for helpful posts

  • Firefox does not fully load Barclaycard Authentication site. It loads as far as asking for certain letters in my pasword but does not load the "Submit" button so I cannot continue with my purchase and have to switch to IE8 browser to purchase anything ov

    Firefox does not fully load Barclaycard Authentication site. It loads as far as asking for certain letters in my pasword but does not load the "Submit" button so I cannot continue with my purchase and have to switch to IE8 browser to purchase anything over the internet. Any clues?
    == This happened ==
    A few times a week
    == Couple of weeks ago

    Your UserAgent string in Firefox is totally messed up by another program that you installed, and Barclays doesn't know you are using Firefox 3.6.6 - it probably looks like IE 6.0 to that website.
    [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Agent]
    type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
    Filter = '''general.useragent.'''
    Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset''''',
    Then restart Firefox

    As an IT person, I can put my hands up to the same difficulty.  Then on double clicking on Home button, find AirTV symbol amongst Music control
    Solved my problem having spent hours looking for a complicated answer.  Well done Apple for hiding it so well.

  • I am having trouble with safari and most apps shutting down when I'm in the middle of stuff what do I need to do to resolve this?

    I am havering trouble with safari and apps shutting down on me all the time what can I do to resolve this problem. Thanks :-)

    Make sure you have enough free space on your iPad. With iOS 7 it is recommended that you have 15-20% of the storage space on the device free.  For a 16 GB device that is 2.4-3.2 GB free. For a 32 GB device that is 4.8-6.4 GB free. For a 64 GB device that is 9.6-12.8 GB free.
    Also try a reset. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)

    Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)
    On a laptop G4, 10.5.8 and Safari 5.02 I experience the following:
    On the account of my oldest daughter everything works fine, i.e. wireless internet works and no problems with mail or safari.
    On the same laptop, on the account of my other daughter, the wireless is OK, she can mail etc. But safari nor firefox works. It says: can’t find server (whatever site) and in the activity window it looks if safari tries to open files (in the safari preferences-folder) in stead of http. Same applies to Firefox, so maybe it has more to do with HTTP in general?
    What goes wrong? What to do? I tried the following on the host terminal (tips from Apple)
    defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
    and
    defaults delete com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled
    but that did not help,

    I'm still wondering why it happens now at this moment in time...
    PC does seem to be a bit odd & inconsistent, the few times I've tested with it, at least so far as we content filtering goes; and if I remember rightly, you're not the first to report previously ok settings suddenly preventing some or all internet until pc is switched off altogether.
    It may work when re-enabled

  • I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. Is my info safe??

    I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. I only got this number about a month ago. Apparently someone else had the number before because I get texts from his family members wondering whats going on. I got one yesterday and the person didn't seem to thrilled that the number was cutoff and today I got 2 texts about iCloud Keychain which I don't even know what it is. Seems suspicious to me. If the person who use to own the number is doing it he should know it is not his number anymore because he obviously didn't pay his bills.  I'm not too sure about iCloud Keychain so just want to know my info safe?? It says it can store credit card numbers which is what gets me worried. Frankly I think it's pretty stupid to save that kind if information with any kind of app. But I don't want some random person trying to access my personal information because they are bitter they lost their number.  Please let me know as soon as possible so I can change passwords or anything that is needed.
    thanks

    If it were me, I would go to my carrier and get a new number. Since you have only had it for a month, the inconvenience would be minimal.
