Why does Windows Vista tell me Firefox has stopped running when I close Firefox ?

Ver 20.0.1 no problem with Windows 7.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

  • Windows vista tells me iTunes has stopped working when I try to sync iPod

    I recently downloaded the newest version of iTunes (8.0.2.20), thanks to its incessantly asking me to. Since I downloaded, every time I attempt to sync to my iPod classic, Windows tells me iTunes has stopped working and forces me to close the program. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm not sure if it's taboo on these boards or not, but this is just a friendly "bump" to see if it might catch the eye of someone who has discovered a fix for this behavior.
    I did discover a couple of suggestions in my research, neither of which proved helpful to me. The first was to disable the sync function for contacts with Outlook (no joy). The second was to delete the Sync Services folder (which I "temporarily" deleted, but still no joy).
    I have found resources that purport to provide sync control over your iPod without using iTunes. They look to be about a $40 gamble, but I may have to try that route (but would really hope that one of the smart people here would have ideas beyond Apple's "elementary "R's"").

  • Why does Windows 7 make a UserName.V2 profile folder when that's not specified in the AD account

    We're still a XP/2003 shop, and I'm testing out Windows 7 with our Roaming Profiles and folder redirection.  So far everything looks to be working great, but have a question regarding the profile.  This test user has
    \\Server\Profiles$\TestUser in their AD account as the profile path.  That folder was empty before logging on to the Windows 7 machine.  When I logged off the Windows 7 machine,
    \\Server\Profiles$\TestUser is still empty, but now there is a
    \\Server\Profiles$\TestUser.V2 which appears to have the users profile in it.
    Can someon explain why it didn't use the folder that already existed?  Also, once we move to 7, will I have to go through each AD account and append a .V2 to the end of each profile path?

    Hi,
    You can create the .v2 folder manually or let the user create automatically when logging on.

  • HT3702 Why does it read my apple ID has been disabled when I try to download

    When I try to download an album from the iTunes store, I get a message that my apple ID has been disabled. I have a balance on my account,so I'm not sure whats going on.

    Depending on why it's been disabled, you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your iPad then try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works on it.

  • Reader X, Windows 7 x64, "Adobe Reader Has Stopped Working" when closing pdfs. Fixed by un/reinstall

    I have been having this message after closing pdfs. Yeah, I know it's stopped worked I shut it down. Brand new computer, latest adobex downloaded from website. Uninstalling and reinstalling fixes the problem. Whatever it was... I saw another post with a similar problem from over a year ago with no responses so this is just for info only.

    I am not sure if any of these suggestions help; it cured many similar issues in 11.0.3...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • Why does a song not return to the same place when I close it?

    Recently, for some reason, when I have a song open and press 'my songs'  (which effectively closes the song) the song doesn't return to its usual location on the screen/folder. Instead it cues to the top left hand corner, and likewise with every other song, the same thing happens.
    It's only just started doing this which makes remembering what is where even more difficult.
    Any help much appreciated.

    You are welcome, Nick. Don't worry about the "é" - it will depend on your keyboard, if it is easy. On my keyboard I type first the accent ´ and then the e, and all is done

  • Why does Windows 7 not show up in System Preference's "Startup Disk"

    Why does Windows 7, installed via Boot Camp, show up when you hold down the option key when booting but the drive does not show up in System Preferences under the Startup Disk icon.
    As an aside Windows 7 runs perfectly on my MacBook.
    - Mike

    Now I found I'm not alone. My situation is similar but not exactly the same.
    I recently switched from the white MacBook to latest mac mini, tried installing XP Pro not successful for some reasons then tried Win7 (build 7000). On my old macbook this worked perfectly.
    Got win7 updated and picked win7 as startup disk in windows, used that for few days without going back to leopard. On just one occasion I booted with 'alt' key pressed (using a PC keyboard) I have choices of drives so I thought everything was fine. As soon as I booted into leopard I found no win7 partition in system>preference>startup disk, OMG I couldn't boot back to win7 since then. From that point onwards the 'alt' key didn't work for me. Every time only leopard can be booted.
    What can I do now?
    Why it was OK in macbook but didn't work on mini? Is it worth investing on a mac external keyboard just to get the 'option' key?

  • Lightroom has stopped running windows is searching for a solution to the problem"

    Lightroom stopped running on Vista 32 windows error message says "Lightroom has stopped running windows is searching for a solution to the problem"...Also some RAW images opened in CS2, Bridge or Lightroom have bands of different colors depending on the image and are unusable. At the same time Lightroom works fine on my laptop running Vista 32.

    Are you looking at the images at 100% resolution? Banding can appear in other enlargements due to rounding errors.

  • HT5192 why does my phone tell me that after trying to update my software to ios 5.1 that an error has occured

    why does my phone tell me that when after updating ios 5.1 that an error has ocurred,ive tried 3 times and im still getting the same message?

    Call Apple in the morning.
    Possibility could have been you had caps lock on entering your security answer either now or when you set it up from the beginning.
    Apple will help you out and you will be in good shape.
    If you are not into phone calls then try to make an appointment at your local Apple store and they can fix it for you in no time.

    Your More system details list show the WMP plugin (np-mswmp), so that should be working.

  • Windows Vista 64 bit/firefox browser -which flash?

    Hi, Can you please tell me what version of flash to install on Windows Vista 64 bit/ firefox browser?..Thanks!

    Well, Firefox doesn't make a 64-bit version, so it won't use any 64-bit plugins, as far as I know.
    Likewise, in IE10 (in Win7 or 8... MS blackmail encouraging you to update), unless you've checked Enable Protected Mode on the Security tab, AND have checked Enable Enhanced Protected Mode way down in the Security section on the Advanced tab (both tabs are in Internet Options), even if you explicitly run the 64-bit iexplore.exe file located in C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\ subdir, it actually loads a 32-bit tab in the 64-bit window, and any page loaded in that 32-bit tab will use 32-bit plugins and add-ons.  To force it to load 64-bit tabs in the 64-bit window (and ergo use 64-bit plugins and add-ons, such as the 64-bit ActiveX version of FlashPlayer, if available), both of those Protected Mode options must be checked.
    You can confirm that by looking in Task Manager on the Processes tab... without those Protected Mode options checked, you'll see an instance of iexplore.exe (for each 64-bit window) and an instance of iexplore.exe *32 (32-bit) for each tab open; WITH those Protected Mode options checked (then fully close all instances of Internet Explorer - just reboot to make sure), all you'll see is an instance of iexplore.exe for each 64-bit window, plus an instance of iexplore.exe for each tab open... and in that case you shouldn't see *any* instances of iexplore.exe *32 on the Processes tab.
