Why do I get an interminable siren sound when I start FF?

I'm using FF 3.6.3. I get an interminable siren sound when FF Starts. I can't get it to stop unless I go to Control Panel and turn sound to MUTE. This is unacceptable behavior for FF. Is there anything I can do to get it to stop?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Today

You can update Cool Previews to the latest version.

  • Why do I get the 'critical stop' sound when I leave the firefox browser - doesn't happen with explorer?

    Why do I get the 'critical stop' sound when I leave the firefox browser. This doesn't happen when using internet explorer?

    Do you mean that there is a problem with closing Firefox?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

    Try to use "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit) to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the Firefox title bar.

  • Why do I get a cracking/popping sound when recording?

    Ever since I updated to OSX Mountain Lion, I am having trouble with Garageband.
    The issue is that as soon as the sound starts to build up, then the cracking and popping sounds begin, interrupting the recording. I use two types of microphones, the M-Audio for voice and ONE by Apogee for my guitar, and so far I have had excellent results.I have restarted the application and even changed microphones, but the problem persists.
    The problem gets worse when you export the song to iTunes, where all the cracks and interruptions show up, ruining the song.
    Does anyone have the same problem? Is there a solution?

  • Why do I get the "iwork discontinued" message when I click on the share feature in pages?

    Why do I get the "iwork discontinued" message when I click on the share feature in pages?

    If you are using an older version of iWorks, the sharing was, I understand discontinued in July 2012.
    New versions of the iWorks suite, Pages etc now have the sharing option, introduced earlier this year.

  • Why am I getting an app store error when trying to download Lion?

    Why am I getting an app store error when trying to download Lion? Any ideas?

    I would complain really bad and get them to give you a Flash card that they just came out with because they've inconvenienced you so much and  you don't have hours to spend at the apple store waiting for the whole thing to load.
    The only thing about the flash cards is that it will change your whole motherboard so it won't allow you to install snow leopard or anything less, ever again. (as what the apple specialist told me over the phone).
    I would also suggest waiting. It really isn't worth the hastle and you may not benefit from installing it on your old computer... just a thought.

  • Why do I get the spinning beach ball when I try to change from Events to Photos.  How do I fix it?

    Why do I get the spinning beach ball when I try to change from Events to Photos.  How do I fix it?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Why do I get an unexpected error occured when I try to save a form as a pdf file?

    Why do I get an unexpected error occured when I try to save a form as a pdf file?

    Hi MsSunnyD,
    Try uninstalling Adobe Acrobat using the Adobe cleaner Tool  http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, try installing Adobe Reader XI. That should resolve the problem.

  • Why do I get an "invalid signature" message when trying to download the latest version of iTunes?

    Why do I get an "invalid signature" message when trying to download the latest version of iTunes?  Apple Support is the lamest excuse for support I have EVER seen.

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • Why do I get only a black screen when I try to download PDF files?

    Why do I get only a black screen when I try to download PDF files?  I have the latest version of Adobe Reader.
    This problem just started a few weeks ago.
    I am still using Snow Leopard.
    I have tried using Firefox instead of Safari, but still get the black screen.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Why do I get constant Game Center notifications when I'm playing games? Seriously, if there isn't an easy way to turn off gamecenter, I'll be switching to a Microsoft phone at my next upgrade. I don't want this garbage popping up while I play my games.

    Why do I get constant Game Center notifications when I'm playing games? Seriously, if there isn't an easy way to turn off these notifications, I'll be switching to a Microsoft phone at my next upgrade. I don't want this garbage popping up while I play my games. What a worthless, obnoxious piece of junk. Apple, stop ignoring your customers!

    How is Apple ignoring their customers, exactly?  If you don't want Game Center, why did you sign into it?
    Sign out, launch an enabled game.  Game Center pops up, close it, launch the game again, it pops up, close it again.
    Now it doesn't pop up any longer.
    All as documented.

    If you ordered an "iPad 2" (as shown in your profile), that model was created in 2011. The current model is called "iPad with Retina Display" (or "iPad 4" colloquially).

    Did you try the suggestion at the link? Following its instructions resets the sign in process (it does NOT extend the trial) so that you can start the software, enter the serial number and sign in.
