Why do I get an error message that tells me I need to close the current session of Firefox. It is open somewhere and I must restart my computer to get past this. Why?

I cannot open Firefox on my system as a message opens that tells me I must close the session that is currently running. However, I have not opened it and it doesn't show anywhere on my computer that it is open. The error message tells me that I must restart my computer which I have to do to get past this point. Then it works fine after that. I have been using Firefox for about 5 months and it has happened about 6 times now. A bit frustrating I must say. Thank you for your assistance on this matter.

Open Task Manager and click on the Processes tab. Scroll down to "Firefox.exe" , click on that line and click on "End Process" button.

HT1420 when I try to import music from my old computer i get an error message that says authorization is needed to access "the song"

I am trying to import my music on my old laptop to my new laptop using Home Sharing both computers are authorized however I can't seem to import due to an error message that says authorization is needed to access "the name of the song" Help.

If they were ripped from CD's there is no authorization.
Were they possibly purchased with a different Apple ID? If so, you'll need to authorize the computer for that Apple ID.

Change here:

You must have a verified billing address & be located in the country whose store you are trying to use.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Open the Mac App Store and go to Purchases. Do you see Final Cut Pro X listed?
If so, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete Final Cut Pro X. Then, go to the Mac App Store and download Final Cut Pro X for free.
If you don't see it in Purchases, see if it's hidden, and if so, unhide it > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928 If it doesn't work, contact with the Mac App Store support > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact

Hi Robertfrom Denver.
Did you try the solution given, and if yes, did it work?
I have done several "attempted downloads, and see the full file download, typically taking 30 minutes to complete, and then something goes wrong.
I am happy to suspend AV and FW software, but would like to know if it is a good fix or not first?

When I open iphoto I get an error message that says Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable,

when I open iphoto I get an error message that says Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable, I have tried restarting computer and opening iphoto whilst holding down option and command key, but then I get the following message-Your photo library is damaged or unreadable and cannot be opened. Please restore from a backup. Please can anyone help?

Make a back up now. If you have any vaule in Your photos always have a back up.
Most Simple Back Up
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex:
Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
In Library Manager the Rebuild command is under the File menu. There's also an excellent Help available.

In the course of your troubleshooting to date have you worked through the following document?
iTunes: Windows reports that "iTunesSetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application"

Why do I get an error message that tells me I need to close the current session of Firefox. It is open somewhere and I must restart my computer to get past this. Why?
