When I open FireFox i get the blue screen of death and then vista restarts. I get to login and then afterthe welcome window it crashes and restarts again. I can open in safe mode but if I open firefox again it restarts this loop.

The other day I opened firefox after the latest update in September. Firefox then closes and then i get logged off and vista(32 bit) restarts. I get back to login and when I try to login it gives me the blue screen and restarts again with the selection screen (start in safe mode....)I was able to login on safe mode and then on admin afterwards. Thinking the problem was just an error I went back and opened firefox on my account and the loop started again. I was forced to remove firefox but I want ti back and I want to know how this can be fixed so I can put it back on my computer.

See below -- the way I asked the question the first time may not be clear. This post was a goof but I can't figure out how to delete it

In which case its still under full warranty and you should be able to get a repacement at the place of purchase.
Take it back and ask for a replacement. It seems to be there's some factory defect to it.

When I connect my Mac to my Smart TV I can only get the desktop screen to appear and not what I wish to play on the screen. What am I doing wrong? I know the TV and Mac are connected because of the desktop screen appearing.

I would appreciate any help anyone can provide. I need to know how to get what I wish to watch on the TV, such as Netflix, and not just the desktop screen. Thank you

You have the display set in Extended Desktop mode with the MacBook as the main screen. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen.
In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen.
The TV will now have the Dock and Menu Bar and windows will open on it. But you can move the cursor to the MacBook screen and move windows from the TV over to the MacBook screen.
You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box. That will give you the same screen at the same resolution on both the MacBook and the external monitor.

IMac early 2008 screen not working properly, lots of lines on screen, re appearing and disappearing at random(normally slowly), computer fine on external screen, any suggestions?

This seemed to happen very suddenly; I left my iMac running while i went out and came in to find that the screen was totally unusable, as you will be able to see from the picture it has a lot of lines that seem to come and go a random and sometimes it goes black all together. What do you think is wrong with it? Logic board? Graphics card? Screen itself?.. also if it is the graphics card, is it separate to the logic board or do both need to be replaced?
Also some additional info:
iMac Early 2008
2.4ghz
4gb Ram
OSX 10.9.2
ATI Radion HD 2400
Actual computer working on external monitor, just not internal
Thanks

Costs vary by area, I think you may find out though that spending money on a 6+ year computer may not be worth it, you can buy an Apple Refurbished Mac with much more up-to-date specifications and save hundreds of $s. If this is of interest you can only find them on Apple's on-line store, in the US the current link is:
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals
Then click the link to the iMacs. If you don't find one you want, continue looking the inventories change frequently, sometimes by the hour.

I turn on my computer, click on the Firefox icon on my desktop, the web browser appears but the same screen always appears and says, "Well this is embarrassing" and says the problem is due to a previously opened tab.

I am online everyday. I turn on my computer and click on the Firefox icon. A web browser appears but not with my Yahoo! homepage. Instead of seeing my Yahoo! homepage I see a screen that says, "Well this is embarrassing." I read that the problem is due to a recently opened tab. It gives me the options of either restoring all previously used tabs from the last time of use or starting a new session. If I choose to restore previous tabs, I am further given the option to select which tabs I want restored and which ones I don't want to restore. I always choose to start a new session because all previous tabs consist of work that I have completed in the past (whether it be yesterday or the day before). I, therefore, have no interest in restoring a tab that contained an article about our current economic situation for example. As previously stated, I choose to start a new session every time I receive the "Well this is embarrassing" error message. When I choose this option, I am brought to a fresh tab with no information regarding work, articles, or entertainment from yesterday or some time in the past. I wish to have an explanation as to why this happens. I do not go on any malicious web sites or anything of the sort. This happens every single day. The automatic error message that appears is "Well this is embarrassing." For Firefox to say "Well this is embarrassing" is not close to the response it should give.

This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

How to: Force your iDevice into recovery mode.
1. Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
2. Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
3. Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
4. iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." 
5. Use iTunes to restore your device.
If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.

Blue screen of death and restart.

Hi, I'm running Windows 7 through Boot Camp. I recently did updates for Windows 7 and had no issues. I use Windows 7 for online gaming only, prior to the new updates I had no issues. In the last two days I have experienced the blue screen of death and had my system restart back to the Apple OS. I then have to restart the computer to launch Boot Camp for Windows. Is ther anyone else having this issue? Or should I conduct a restore and prior to the recent updates?

Any update regarding this issue?
now the iphone shutdown by itself

IMac intel 10.6.8 will not shut down. Blue screen comes on and spinning wheel goes round.

My iMac intel will not shut down. The version is 10.6.8. To turn it off I have to use the the power off button. Is there any one who can help me to solve the problem.
The blue screen comes on and the spinning wheel goes round and round until I have to turn it off by the power button.

I am having the same problem on my Mini. I found an earlier thread (now archived) that suggested that this spinning wheel on shutdown of SL has something to do with power management settings. Another idea was that it is related to EyeTV (which I do have running on this Mac).
Any ideas from the community on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated! (I have done the typical steps of repairing permissions and (from the Install CD) running Disk Utility, which reported no problems.)

I have an IPod 2nd generation I bought from a pawn shop. It worked for a day but now when I try to charge it, it keeps switching back and forth from the large full screen icon of a low battery and a lighting bolt below to the blue screen with the apple symbol in the middle. I had it on charge all night but still dead.

i connected my laptop to the tv and it has worked before. this time only the laptop flashes the blue screen and the tv is saying no signal. when i tried to check the dispaly arrangement it says this:The Arrangement tab of Displays preferences is hidden because you only have a single display attached to this computer.

It is not properly connected to the network.
Make sure location is set correctly
DNS should be on auto (settings - general - network)
Try ethernet
Signal strength on device won't account for issues, you would need a network report from istumbler, netstumbler or similar. This will show accurate signal strength along with noise and nearby networks

My MacBook pro is less then a year old and when I try to shut it down it gives me the blue screen and the loading spinner but the doesn't do anything or shut down. I've already tried to reinstall Mac os x but that didn't work any ideas?

It stays on the blue screen forever until I manually shut it down

Cooper, please start a new thread. You'll get a wider audience and won't confuse Quintonaturner with issues that don't pertain to them. You don't know they have Office. Many Mac users don't. http://www.neooffice.org is a nice alternative, and so is http://docs.google.com/ as long as you don't have Exchange servers that aren't Mac OS X Mail compatible.

TS1502 I have an ipad and a blue screen has appeared.....what should be done to get the ipad to work again.

My ipad is displaying a blue screen. I have tried to reboot but nothing is happening, it keeps displaying the blue screen. How can this be fixed so I can use my ipad again

Try this - 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 is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
