"Windows cannot find 'Flash'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and try again."
I can't open Flash files from Flash Builder 4.6 in Windows 7. I just get this message "Windows cannot find 'Flash'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and try again."
In Preferences Fila Associations for FLA Adobe Flash Editor (default) is selected as per default initial settings. I've even tried reinstalling FB from scratch and it is still giving this error.
This worked for me (requires Flash install)
In menu bar, select Window->Preferences
In Preferences window, select General->Editors->File Associations
Select or add ".fla" to File Associations
Change the Associated editors to "Flash Document". Set it to "Default"
I also removed their internal "Adobe Flash Editor" since it didn't seem to be working anyway. Not sure if this makes a difference.

I've just installed Firefox on my laptop and keep getting the message, "Windows cannot find 'c:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I get this message whenever I either try to open it from the Start menu or from the desktop icon. I've never gotten it to work and even uninstalled it and then redownloaded it and still cannot get it to open. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
Are you installing from the official site? http://www.mozilla.com/firefox
If you use Windows Explorer (My Computer) to check that path, is the Mozilla Firefox folder there? That is the normal installation location, but I think it's worth checking.
If the folder isn't there or firefox.exe is not in it, I wonder whether some other software might be interfering. You might want to run some supplemental security scans. These two tools are highly regarded:

"Windows cannot find...Make sure you typed the name correctly" issue across many files
I recently have run into an issue where many programs cannot be opened. I get an error message saying "Windows cannot find... Make sure you typed the name correctly the try again." This happens for task editor, or manage in the control panel. I cannot change settings in the system security as I get the same message.
I ran a full scan of McAfee and nothing was picked up.Hello,
Thank you for posting in the HP Support Forum.
These symptoms you describe appear because Windows cannot find certain application when it is lauched using some kind of shortcut. Since it appears with many applications (including Task Manager), this is usually considered to be caused by malicious programs (malware) such as viruses, trojans, etc.

*Note - the above Microsoft KB article is just one example for the many many viruses that exist out there. Of course, you may
Please, double check your system with other security products aside from your McAfee.
Try to check your computer using the free ESET Online Scananer:

Scan with the free HitmanPro :

Please, report back your results.
If it happens so that you cannot run ESET or HitmanPro, best would be to use an alternative computer (known clean one), prepare a bootable CD/DVD using a "live" antivirus image such as Kaspersky Rescue Disk or ESET SysRescue Live, and scan your system using this CD/DVD. Full instruction can be found here:

I have the latest iTunes 12.1.2.27. However, I am unable to restore my iphone4s. iTunes was able to detect an iPhone in recovery mode.
The error is something like "Unable to restore the iphone. Make sure you have the latest iTunes and try again." This is the latest version that exists currently.
I am using MAC OS X 10.7.5.
Please advise.
I have tried all the steps in the apple support.There is nothing to backup.
If the device is showing the Connect to iTunes screen, there is nothing on the device to backup.
The first step in the update process is a backup... restore the device using that backup and try again. -
Shall I just reinstall the program? It was running fine until I got a Trojan last week. I'm pretty sure the Trojan has been removed'
It sounds like your windows registry is messed up. That you may have had cs5 at one time and upgraded to cs6 than got a subscription and installed Photoshop CC. You than followed that with an uninstall of CS6 which backed out its registry update and restored windows registry Photoshop.exe key to what it replaced your old CS5 path. Since CS5 is no longer on you machine you get that message. Use regedit search for key Photoshop.exe and correct the path to Photoshop CC 2014...

Error -6753 Make sure your internet connection is valid and try again. Help
So I just dropped nearly $200 on an airport extreme to throw my desktop PC and wireless mac into a network (since my router just gave out). I had a hard time connecting to the internet, and then magically I got the internet working, but when I open airport utility to configure security settings or update firmware I get:
"An error occurred while trying to access the base station. Make sure your internet connection is valid and try again. Error -6753"
How do I get rid of this? Any suggestionsError -4 is almost always an indication that the connection between the AirPort Utility application and the AirPort router is is being blocked by....
1) The Windows Firewall
2) Microsoft Security Essentials...if installed on your PC
3) The anti-virus software
4) 1&2, or 2&3, or 1&3, or all of the above
When I used to use a PC, the only way that I could ever get the AirPort setup was to turn off all of the items above, configure the AirPort, then turn everything back on again.
Life would be tons easier if you had an iPhone or iPad to configure the AirPort Extreme, or you could borrow a Mac for a few minutes. -
iTunes RADIO is not working.
“iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio. People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.

NOTE: no password for iTunes exists in my Keychain. Is this a problem?
Apple ACCOUNT ID, and iTunes ID password, works but not to access iTunes with my healthy internet connection.
