Why does "checking compatibility of addons" come up each time I turn on Firefox?

Each time I turn on Firefox a box comes up with "checking compatibility of addons".

It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.
Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.

New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files":
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the Tools button at the left side of the Search Bar (or click the "Find Updates" button in older Firefox versions) to do a compatibility check or see if there is a compatibility update available.

Why does Calendar keep reverting from full screen each time I exit the app?

I'm using a 2014 Macbook Air. It's running Yosemite.
Why does Calendar keep reverting from full screen each time I exit the app?
On my older Macbook at work, calendar stays full screen whether I exit the app or restart the computer (similar to Mail - which is staying in full screen on both computers).
Please help me adjust settings so I don't have to keep putting Calendar into full screen.
Thanks!

Why does "message to _________ deleted" come up every time I try to text a certain person?

Why is the only thing I recieve when I send a text to my friend "Message to _______ deleted"? I don't understand why it's doing that?

It may be that your messages are set to automatically delete the messages after they are sent. Go into message then under settings look to see if it says auto delete and change the program.

Why does FEBE backup popup window pop up every time I open the Firefox browser, even after I just backed up FEBE????

Since I installed 7.0.1, it has been nothing but trouble. It locks up frequently. Menu and add-on toolbar does not always load. FEBE does not recognize any previous backup, and wants to backup every time Firefox is opened, every time, even if I open multiple windows. The only way I could stop the FEBE popup was to schedule it to backup on browser shutdown or start up. Any scheduled option, including NO SCHEDULED BACKUP makes no difference. As soon as I open the browser the FEBE backup popup, pops up. I want a previous version back.

You can delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled extensions that are not compatible on the next start in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button to do a compatibility check.
You may also need to "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the [[Safe mode]] start window.

Why does iTunes invite me to log on every time I launch it?

Why does iTunes invite me to log on every time I launch it? It never used to do this. How can I stop it ? When I open the app I usually want to just listen to the music collection I have in it, not download anything or buy from the store.
How can I stop this default ?

I have checked and it isn't.
This never used to happen, but I suspect something changed at the last iTunes update.

Are you talking about the spell checking? Or the keyboard layout? Safari, or some other browser?
For spellcheck, go to system prefs/language & text/text/spelling and set it to British English. Also go to system prefs/language & text/language and use the Edit button to add British English to the top of the list.

Why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it?

why does my computer play strange music at random times and how can I stop it? The music isn't anything on my machine and the only way I can switch it off is to reboot. Can anyone advise me please. It's driving me nuts ... I don't even like the music it's playing!

What apps are open and are you really still only on 10.5.1??????? At the very least please update your profile, also please remember to post more information. I suspect it's something going on with just your user account. You can verify that by creating another user account (call it TEST ACCOUNT) and log into that account and test. Once this has been verified then you will need to check which apps are running to determine what is causing your issue.

Ok well you need to get your facts straight. You say the reason to upgrade to OS 4 but half of these have to do with the new iPhone 4 and not the OS. Two totally different issues
