Whenever I reset the microsoftdotnet useragent string it undoes it after a short while

I downloaded Firefox 3.6, and went to open it. It didn't load, so I asked for help in the forums. I received the helpful advice of using safe mode to reset my useragent values, and that helped. Later on I updated Microsoft .NET Framework to version 3.5 (I think, as it was a windows autoupdater) and from that point I was unable to open Firefox again. I checked through about:config in safe mode, and found out that I need to reset the microsoftdotnet string. I did and reopened Firefox which worked. Since then I need to go through this process every time i start my computer. Go to safe mode > about:config > reset microsoftdotnet > close > start Firefox normally.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== I updated windows through the auto updater

my oh my it also happened to me..until now it still apple logo

    You must be using an old version of Acrobat as Organizer hasn't been in the last two versions of Acrobat.  Here is the KB that covers that old error:  Error "The Organizer Database is damaged and will be reset..." | Acrobat 9

    In front of the "if" there is a gray circle with and "!" in the center. When I click on the song to play I get this message.The song could not be used because the original file could not be found.

  • Cover flow: the cover area turns black or white after a short time

    Hi
    Does anyone know why my iTunes has begun turning the area, where the covers usually are placed, into complete black and sometimes complete white? When iTunes skips to the next track, it shows the covers again - for a short time - and then usually turns into black again. It also show me the cover flow, if I just go into iTunes again (you know, if I've been surfing on the internet, and then later go into iTunes again)
    I have a rather huge library (~115 gb), but I have never had any issues like this before. iTunes is updated and so is my graphic driver. I'm using Vista 32bit.
    Best regards
    Jon

    Well I updated to 8.2 and the same issue remained so went ahead and removed ALL Apple related components, Bonjour, Quicktime, iTunes etc. and redownloaded package and reinstalled... Everything works fine EXCEPT I still have the same issue with coverflow going black after a while (basically showing the black background only). Clicking into the area brings back the coverflow... it's like it's going into the background... Quite odd. Not really a big deal but none the less annoying!
    This is the only app experiencing anything similar. Tested with 4 different NVidia video driver versions from 179.x onward and it is consistent so I doubt OpenGL as it was working fine before. I'm stumped! My guess is Apple coders need to force the Cover flow to stay in the foreground and or return to it. Oddly, this issue is easy for me to reproduce, When Windows shutsdown the screen and it comes back after a record switch almost always the coverflow will be gone.

  • How do I reset the number of activations on Visio 2003 after getting a "too many activations" message?

    I just installed Visio 2003 on a PC, and got the "we can't activate this app via the internet because you've installed it too many times" message. I went back to phone activation, but, of course, that's no longer available for this product.
    How do I get the number of activations reset? Apparently you used to be able to do this by calling Microsoft, but what's the number to call? Or is there another way to do it?
    I'm probably going to need to do it for my copy of Office 2003 also.

    Hi,
    Microsoft has ended support for Office 2003 on April 8, 2014. This change will affect your software updates and security options.
    Please contact your local customer service. Explain to the service (Human being) that you can’t activate Visio 2003 and the error message is “we can't
    activate this app via the internet because you've installed it too many times”.
    You can find
    your local custom support number on the link below.http://support.microsoft.com/gp/customer-service-phone-numbers/en-us
    Hope it can be helpful.

  • What to do after resetting the MBP SMC?

    I have a MBP 2011 model. After having slow frame rates on games running on bootcamp, I decided to do the SMC reset as recommended by various forums and discussion threads, and the SMC was successfully reset, HOWEVER..
    After restart..
    - Battery icon has a "X" on it as teh battery is damaged.
    - Keyboard back lights are not working.
    - Sleep mode not entered with screen led off.
    - Fans are always running at full speed.
    - Windows does not start fully.
    - Other people reported USBs don't recognize connected devices.
    I know all these settings are managed by the SMC and that's why they're not working, so nothing is wrong with the hardware. I serched for these settings in OSX but couldn't find. And all discussions on the net are only talking about how to reset the SMC but not what to do after that.
    How do I get these things back?

    I have already reset pram, here you can read all things I've done and why >

    when you speak about "chimes"...you mean the "apple restart sound"? I have to hear it at least a couple of times? I'll do...again everything ;-)
    finally I'll try also to disconnect the battery connection (I have opened 2 months ago my mac to upgrade memory) as someone suggested here >

  • I am trying to log onto a Mac Mini I haven't used in awhile and I forgot the password. I am trying to reset the password with my apple ID but the computer keeps saying the Apple ID and the password are incorrect whenever I know they are.

    I am trying to log onto a Mac Mini I haven't used in awhile and I forgot the password. I am trying to reset the password with my apple ID but the computer keeps saying the Apple ID and the password are incorrect whenever I know they are, as I am using the exact same ID right now.
    I have switched my password in the past, so my theory is my mac mini thinks that my password has not changed and it will not update because The Wi-Fi password has also changed so it cannot connect to any servers...Does that sound like I am on the right track?
    Is there a way to update my Wi-Fi password  (saved into the computer) without logging on?

    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    resetpassword
    That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.

    To get replacement installation disks, call Apple.  Have the serial number of your MBP ready and a credit card.  There is a fee.

    Saw this on another post.
    Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it!   It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • My 1st generation Ipod touch won't turn on at all and whenever I press the buttons to reset it all I get is a white screen, or a white screen with black lines across.

    My 1st generation Ipod touch won't turn on at all and whenever I press the buttons to reset it all I get is a white screen, or a white screen with black lines across.Help pleaseeeeee!

    You can work through the five 5 R's of troubleshooting to rule out the possibility of corrupted software.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
    Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity.  A third party service will actually replace the damaged part for a little less.  Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.
