Windows glass turns off randomly. When I open a new window, the glass is working, but not on the old window.

When i start firefox, the Windows Glass (Aero) is on. Randomly during a browsing session, it will turn off and the glass will just turn into a single color with no transparency. If I open up other programs, or even a new window in firefox, the glass is still working for those windows. However the original firefox window remains opaque. What is happening? If it helps, I am running Windows 7 64 bit and Firefox.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== I noticed it after the update to firefox 3.6.8

    That message is usually a sign that you tried to roll back to an earlier build of iTunes, but occasionally I've seen it connected to a new upgrade. This technique should fix things.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • Laptop turns off randomly when not plugged into charger

    I have a 2013 Macbook Air and a few weeks ago, it started turning off randomly after a few minutes of use. It only works without turning off when it's plugged into the power.
    I tried resetting the SMC various times, and the battery software update was not applicable to my device.
    I'm not sure if it's a dead battery or not, because the device still charges.
    I work for a magazine, and kinda need my laptop so any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Hey bbkae
    Continue you troubleshooting with the article below to check the health of your battery. I would try to run hardware diagnostics on it to see if it passes the test.

  • Light on iphone4 flash will not turn off even when phone is powered down, now it is overheated and says not usable till cooled, but it won't cool.  I'm afraid it will start a fire.

    light on iphone4 flash will not turn off even when phone is powered down, now it is overheated and says not usable till cooled, but it won't cool.  I'm afraid it will start a fire.  Aside from breaking it, putting in in a metal pail in the yard, or putting it in a bucket of water, what can be done to keep it from setting a fire.  It is so hot it burns my skin if i touch it, so bright, it hurts to look at, so hot there is now a warning that it is not usable till it cools down, but there is no way to cool it down. 

    more info, this happened after update to 7.0.2, and also wifi will no longer turn on since update.  I took it in to apple store, it had one month left on warrenty, and they said that it would have had to get wet for this to happen.  I thought that maybe it got wet through my jeans pocket in the rain or something so I didn't pursue it.  Now of course, it is out of warranty by a month.

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
    Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

  • When selecting the camera on 3gs the screen just goes black i can still take a photo using the top volume button but not with the screen please help

    hello there
    when selecting the camera on my 3gs the screen goes black and has no responce i can take a picture with the top volume button but cannot see it until i open photos
    please can anyone help
    thankyou andy

    Try closing the Camera app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset (unless this is what you mean by powering off and restarting) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • HT4101 The camera connector suddenly stopped importing photos like it used to.  Now it will import 1 or 2 photos and then **** off and revert to the desk top.  The Sd reader works, but I miss the quicker option of the cord and connected.

    I have two Canon Elph cameras.  They both were easy to use with my IPad until two months ago when it suddenly stopped working on either camera/cord. It would check the new photos displayed on the screen and then shut down, import one or two, and go back to the desktop. Frustrating.  The SD reader works, though. Is the camera connected faulty?

    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management. 

  • Toshiba laptop turns off randomly when moved

    Hi,
    I have a Toshiba Satelite C655 that randomly turns off when moved. In fact, it will not boot back up unless I remove the battery entirely, hold down the power button for 20 seconds, then put the battery back in. Then it boots up fine.
    Like I said, it randomly happens when it's bumped or moved.
    Any ideas what this could be? We took everything except the processor out and put it back in to ensure nothing was loose.
    This laptop has been very rarely used and is in mint condition besides this one flaw.

    I hate random problems. They are the hardest to diagnose and take the longest time to figure out. I agree, it sounds like a loose or intermittent connection. But if you have gone in and reseated all of the connections and made sure that the cables are in straight, etc, it could be a defective connector, cable or component. Again, going to take time and effort to figure out which part or piece when moved or bumped is at fault. Either put in the time and effort to figure it out or consider turning this computer into a 'desktop', where it won't be moved or bumped. Same location always with an external monitor, keyboard and mouse.

  • Using windows 7 and FF4, randomly when I open FF all of my username and password info for my websites has been removed and i have to re enter my login info. I did not have this problem with 3.6.

    None of my security settings are being changed and this is not being caused by any anti spyware program. if I go back to 3.6 i do not have the problem. I have reinstalled FF4 and now, 4.0.1, thinking it might be corrected but still the problem persists and I get tired of having to reenter login information for 20 or more websites every couple of days.

    I also had terrible issues with 2 Wire Gateway and my mid-2010 MacBook Pro.  We changed to WPA2 and that seems to have fixed the problem.  The AT&T tech support person, Phillipines, was extremely helpful.  She went through network settings with me.  One interesting step was going into my DNS tab (Network Preferences and then Advanced Button) and replacing my entries with these:
    68.94.156.1
    68.94.157.1
    It's been several days and I've only seen a few random packet drops.  Still charging along at full signal strength.

  • How do i fix the following message that appears when i open my computer :- Apple Sync Notifier.exe Entry Point not found the procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_check point chould not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll

    Apple Sync Notifies,exe.Entry point not found the procedure entry point sqlite3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite3.dll
    I have uninstalled Itunes 10.4 shut down and installed Itunes 10.4 and still get this message on opening? How do i fix this problem?

    With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
    Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
    Restart the programme all should be well
    In case that your OS is (64 bit)
    1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
    3. Now paste it in the folder  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
    4. Restart the programme, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
    Good Luck

  • I accidentally changed my settings so another website is opened when I open a new tab; how do I get it back to the default quick links on a new tab?

    The site that is shown is Ask.com, and it changed because when I downloaded iLivid installer I didn't uncheck the boxes that asked me if I wanted to make this change.

    I'll list out the steps, but please note that any Ask-related extensions still in Firefox can override your preference, so you might want to check for and either disable or remove any such extension here first:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Here is how you can set/reset what appears on a new tab:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) <u>To get the page thumbnails</u>, right-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and choose Reset
    (4) <u>For other choices</u>, double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter the desired value:
    ''(i) Blank tab''
    about:blank
    ''(ii) Built-in Firefox home page''
    about:home
    ''(iii) Any other page''
    full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?
