Why does iDVD suddenly quit when I export an iMovie or when I double click iDVD icon??

I have been trying to open iDVD. It comes up for about a second and then dissapears.. This also happens when I am trying to export an iMovie to iDVD. I have a Mac OSX.6.8

Try this basic troubleshooting fix :
1 - delete the IDVD preference file, com.apple.iDVD.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete IDVD'S cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iDVD folder.
Click to view full size
3 -try to launch IDVD again.

Firefox does not come up when I double click the icon, why not?

I upgraded Adobe but Firefox did not come up afterward. I uninstalled the upgrade but still can't get Firefox. On Start I get an MSN page without a toolbar or any other way to get to anywhere else. I have to close the window and am back at Desktop. Windows Explorer is working, going to wedsites, etc.

What version iOS have you got ? If you are still on the orginal iOS 3 version then you won't get the taskbar.

Why does computer reacts slow when I double click.

It seems I have trouble double clicking on something while online or scrolling, as if the cursor isn't "grabbing" the scroll bar.

The exclamation point means iTunes is no longer able to locate the track and the location specified. See this article for more details.

Know why Premiere Elements 3.0 won't start when I double click the icon?

I have Windows Vista 32 bit. I have Premiere Elements 3.0 and the 3.0.2 patch. When I double click the icon, it won't load. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app but it still won't load. It worked as recently as last week. I had some virus issues so I took my laptop to Geek squad and they "fixed" the issues.
I never had this problem with Premiere before. Anybody know what might be causing it not to start?
I have been considering an upgrade. I see that they are up to version 9. Will version 9 even work on Vista?

It depends.
What do you mean by "I never had this problem before"? Do you mean Premiere Elements worked fine until the Geek squad restored your computer?
Unless they totally wiped your hard drive and reinstalled your operating system, they may have patched but not totally fixed your problem.
Or it could be that your computer just needs a good cleaning and defragging. Assuming you've got adequate power and a good 30-50 gigabytes of free defragmented space on your C drive.
But there's a very good chance that, if you've re-installed version 3 and it still won't run, then version 9 won't run either. After all, if you still haven't remedied yoru core problem, a new vehicle isn't likely to make any difference, right?
Still, there's no harm in trying. Why not download free trial and see?

Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace

Why music won't play when i double click on it. software issue? i need help

When I double click on a song or hit the play button, it doesn't do anything. I had this problem before but it seemed to fix itself after a few days. 2 weeks ago, itunes, along with any type of media on my computer, stopped working again. If I try to play a video in itunes or WMP, it just skips right through in about 3 jumps without any sound. I also can't stream videos on the internet. Dell told me it was a software issue and I had to pay $150 for them to tell me how to fix it. Nonsense. Can anybody help?

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Why does Firefox no longer launch when I double-click the icon?

I found an article on the support site that suggested creating a new profile, but the run command did not launch profile manager. I tried uninstall/reinstall, but it does not change behavior. When I click the icon, I get the hourglass for a moment, and then nothing. I'm on WinXP. On 10-14-11, I thought I saw a pop-up menu saying Firefox was updating (I did not initiate it, nor was I presented with a confirm pop-up), but it was very brief, so I'm not sure. After that day, Firefox would no longer launch. I've not made any system changes, or installed any programs.

I downloaded periscope on itunes however when I double click the icon nothing happens!!!!

I downloaded Periscope on itunes. It shows it finished and i see the icon. When i try to double click to open it nothing happens. Is this happening to anyone else. This also goes for any other app that I dll thru itunes.

iOS apps don't run in iTunes on your computer and you don't double-click apps on iOS devices. What is the real problem you want to address?

Why does audio suddenly die when skimming clips?

Selecting a clip on a word or music beat is vital to getting the clip length right and in the right place in the project. Suddenly the audio is gone when you skim with the cursor and will only come on when you press play, making it impossible to accurately select the clip to be moved.
If you quit iMovie and then start again it comes back ... sometimes! I am using two firewire hard drives [500gig and 1000gig] for the events, leaving the mac drive [250gig] 140g to work with. Is there something I am missing?

You may have already done this, but to hear the audio while skimming clips you need to turn on Audio Skimming.
There are two ways to do this. In iMovie's menu go to View and select Audio Skimming (the second to last item in the View menu) - the shortcut is Command-K. Otherwise click on the Audio Skimming icon to turn it off and on. It's on the right-hand side in the strip of icons running through the centre of the iMovie window, directly to the left of the green audio bars. It's shaped like a waveform with a red vertical line through it.
You need to skim through clips reasonably slowly, otherwise the audio cannot be heard. It's also helpful when working with audio to turn on the waveforms beneath the video thumbnails. The icon for this is at the bottom right of the Project window, and also at the bottom right of the Events window (to the left of the thumbnail sliders).

Firefox will not launch - when i double-click the icon it does nothing. But when I go to the task manager in Windows it shows that Firefox is an active process.

Why does it take 7-42 minutes for Firefox 4 to open once I click the icon? (I have timed it, yes.)

I'm writing this on ie, which I HATE, because since I installed F4, it will not start up in a reasonable time. I did all the basic troubleshooting, uninstalled and re-installed it, checked the options, etc but nothing works. Everything elso on my computer works instantly, except F4. What's up with that and am I going to have to go back to using the hated ie all the time?

It sounds to me like the installation didn't perform correctly.
What I suggest you do is to go to Add/Remove Programs and uninstall it, but don't checkmark the option to remove your bookmarks, customizations etc.
Before you do that though, go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0] and download a fresh installation file.
After you uninstall the existing installation, reboot.
It's also wise to disable your AV before installing again. If you've got AVG, this is particularly difficult because it doesn't have an Exit option. Instead, you have to open MSCONFIG and remove the checkmark from '''AVG Watchdog '''which disables everything. Any changes to MSCONFIG requires a reboot I regret to say.

Itunes just won't open.No error message or anything,it just simply won't open when i double click the icon.Plz help!

Its alright I forget some details when I post a question too, anyways.... sounds like some file has got corrupt or theres a PC glitch.
As with many post covering simliar issues about iTunes not opening, first try uninstalling Quicktime and reinstalling it.
Also make sure your anitvirus is turned off or disabled when uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes and qicktime. Follow ALL the steps at the link below

Doublechecking. Have you worked through the following troubleshooting document?
