Yahoo crossword puzzle no longer works - puzzle goes black

Used to work fine. Now sometimes loads, sometimes doesn't. When it does, you can enter a few answers, then it goes black. Sometimes freezes FF.

b,
We are in business. I charged the iPod via the cigarette lighter (didn't take long). When I plugged it into the computer after charging it I got the familiar ding-dong sound and the iPod updater immediately prompted me to update the software on the iPod (which I did).
After updating, the computer no longer seemed to recognize it. I stopped all the USB devices that were running, one at a time until I finally saw Apple iPod in the list and I stopped that as well and disconnected.
To make a long story short, after rebooting my computer and reconnecting the iPod, iTunes came up as normal and it looks like I'm over this hurdle.
I have no idea why the computer wouldn't recognize the iPod when the battery was dead but suddenly recognizes it after charging it.
My wife says that the iPod had been left plugged into the computer for a long period of time but I'm not sure what that would have done.
At any rate, we're working now and hopefully someone will get some benefit from this thread.
Thanks again,
Greg.

    My iphone is no longer working I have black screen with a picture of the itunes logo and a USB cable.  When I try to connect my iphone to itunes the device is not detected, can anyone help me? I desperatley need my phone back

    I have had a 3GS for 2+ years.  After upgrading to IOS 4 (now 4.3.5) I began having problems.  In the past week, my screen went to the itunes logo and USB cable twice -- unprovoked -- just found it sitting there like that!  I connected to itunes and it did restore from a backup but it is a major inconvenience.  I am also searching for answers, but better back-up regularly!

    I'm using Photoshop CS6, created a new document. trying to use my layers and my work keeps going black. when I click on the workspace  i am able to see my work but when I move my mouse any little bit it goes black again.

    Good day!
    Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

  • HT201335 when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?

    when using apple tv with my ipad, the mirroring function does not work, screen goes black, what is the issue?  My son's Ipad(same as kind as mine) works ok with the apple tv but mine does not.  Any suggestions?

    Hello Nina Izurin,
    While written for the iPhone, the troubleshooting below can help resolve issues with your iPad's camera, as well.
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • Drag and drop of html-files into Firefox 3.0.1 no longer works after going from XP to Win7

    I use firefox portable 3.0.1 on an external disk.
    Used to have a portable PC with XP SP2, now have a new Windows7 Professional machine.
    On the XP machine I was able to open Firefox from the USB disk and drag&drop html-files into its window to open them. Suddenly on Windows7 this no longer works?? Any ideas/fixes?
    Note: I do have to start the portable Firefox in XP SP2 compatibility mode, after which it seems to work fine (apart from this issue thus far)
    A lot of configuration went in this Firefox portable install, so it would be nice to get this to work with a quick fix instead of having to start from scratch with a newer version.

  • If I stay on iPhoto too long, my screen goes black.

    Hi all,
    Recently, I was editing a photo in iPhoto when suddenly the screen went black.  The computer hadn't switched off because the backlight keyboard was still lit. 
    After many restarts, I finally realised that if I were to open iPhoto and leave the appellation open for about 20 seconds, the screen would go black again.  Eventually iPhoto said that my library could not be found and I had to go through the process of rebuilding my library.  I now have all of my photos again, but the problem persists.  If I open iPhoto and use it for about 20 seconds, the screen goes black.
    Does anyone have any suggestions for this strange problem?
    Thank you.

    Log into another user account on your Mac and see if the problem persists there when you open iPhoto for a while.
    If the problem doesn't repeat itself there then try the following in your account:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder:
    User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • Tabs in Yahoo premium mail no longer work with Firefox 37.

    In Yahoo mail premium-add free I can no longer access or close tabs. Messages open in tabs, tabs persist but I need to exit mail to close them. I can get back to In box and other categories but not the tabs. I figured it was Yahoo until I noticed the functions work with Chrome. Note: The free yahoo does not have multiple tabs and appears to be working normally. Regards

    Make sure that this also does not happen in Safe Mode:
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    '''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    '''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    ;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • Yahoo email is no longer working properly

    As of a couple of days ago, I am having a problem with Yahoo mail on my iPhone 4.  The Mail app keeps telling me that it's checking for mail and then downloading messages (e.g. "1 of 12"), but then no new messages appear.  I also have intermittent trouble deleting messages or moving them to folders.  I tried re-associating the Deleted folder on my iPhone with the Trash folder on the server (in Advanced options), and that seemed to help the deleting problem for a while, but then I stopped seeing new emails in my inbox.  This morning I completely deleted the account and added it again, but it is still having problems, both with having all of my emails show up in my inbox, and in deleting / moving emails.  Interestingly enough, if I search my inbox for a particular message, and tell it to Continue Search on Server, it will find and download the messages from the server.  I also have an Exchange email account set up on the iPhone, and that's working properly -- the issue is limited to Yahoo mail
    Help?

    I have been having this same issue.   Tried to work with Apple support... They went on a fishing expedition trying to diagnose.   Looks like a Yahoo! problem.   Opened a support case with them, but haven't heard anything.
    It did seem to work again briefly this morning, but is now broken again.   The same problem is effecting both my iPhone and iPad.
    Anyone have any further insight into what to do.  Changing email providers is not really an option at this point.   I've had the email address for 10+ years, and really can't take the time or afford to do this.   Probably serves me right for using a free service initially, but what can I do now!
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Yahoo Calendar Sync no longer works

    I get errors trying to sync with my yahoo calendar. Sometimes I get some strange error code and a message that says "Check Documnetation" and other times Desktop Manager crashes. If it crashes it won't stop crashing until I reboot my computer.
    I've noticed that there are quite a few people out there having this problem all of a sudden. Up until now, I've had no problems syncing. Can anyone help? Is there any ideas how to resolve the issue?
    Thanks!

    Posting a "me too". 
    I've had the BB for about a month and the sync with Yahoo worked great, then stopped a week or two ago.  I assumed user error (me) and did uninstalls and re-installs.  Glad to know it might not be my error and will watch this stream to see if a fix appears. 
    My address book syncs with the addresses in Vista's Windows Mail, and has continued to work fine.  Only Yahoo has become a problem for me.

  • Yahoo mail will no longer work since 4.0 update, any suggestions

  • Yahoo IM no longer working in Apple Messages.

    My Yahoo IM is no longer working in Apple Messages. I am able to log in and send messages to my buddies, and they receive my messages. The problem is I do not receive any of their replies.
    I have AOL, Jabber and iMessages working, its only Yahoo that is not working properly.
    I tried deleting the account, restarting my computer and creating the account again and it still doesnt work.
    I tested the yahoo account with other IM clients (Adium, Trillian) and it works fine.
    Is there any way to restore/reinstall Messages without having a time machine backup?

    HI,
    You should be able to open the Applications folder and then use Time Machine and select just Messages app at a point when it appear to have been changed.  (i.e. do just Messages)

  • [Helix] Panel replaced twice digitizer dead and hdmi no longer working

    hi all,
    Appologies for the length, but despite my frustrations over aspects of the helix (fan, heat, digitzer not always working etc) I've been happy that I'd bought the device as a "right choice", hence the high level of frustration at things going differently...
    3-4 weeks ago my helix started suffering with up to half the screen no longer working (from simply black to an interference style pattern).  At this stage HDMI out worked as did the digitzer, even if I couldn't see what the pen would click on.
    I phoned up the CH support line (in English) and ended up with a number of nice call center people who said I'd have an engineer out for the next business day.  I then had a period of 3 days without being called, and after chasing on the support was informed a part had been ordered.  Two days later I had a visit from the engineer.
    The on-site engineer, like the call staff, was very nice (even in the face of having to sit in a restaurant to look at the panel).  He returned the device the next day with a brand new panel.  However I then discovered the digitzer wasn't working.
    A week later after a series of remote software installations and bios upgrades another on-site engineer came out.  He too was very pleasent, and was also visibily irratated that the digitzer didn't work after yet another panel swap.
    In all cases I had to chase the support to find out what the current status was.  This I find to be poor customer service - a simple email or status page would have been great and let me know even a little of what was going on.
    Whats worse service is that I still, after chasing again, have no idea what course of action I should take.  One option the engineer gave was to send the device away for up to 4 days (to esag), or perhaps order a new motherboard or other piece....
    This is my first, and at this rate probably my last thinkpad, so I have no idea what I should expect and no great deal of confidence despite the clear best intentions of those with whom I've interacted that even if I send it away I'll get a fixed laptop back.  The knowledge on helix's in ch simply seems to low.
    Does anyone here, lenovo guys of course included, have any clues as to what I can expect / what my next actions should be?
    Cheers,
    Chris

    well to answer my own question and make sure others know to stay away from Helix / possibly Lenovo...
    I had the machine replaced.  The DOA team and the lenovo team were again great, I can't state this clearly enough.  But they are helping on a badly made / designed / engineered product.  It overheats, the pen stops working (usb device not recognized etc), could be the flex in the screen but its definitely a hardware problem.
    The replacement came, worked for 2 weeks and then died.  Then I had to go through the same remote support - install everything - process as before.   Again, as before, the machine was simply not functioning.
    The replacement got replaced.  The new one worked for 6 weeks before it started happening again.  As of last week the pen no longer works at all, same as before.
    Off to start another round of attempting to get a replacement or this time a refund.
    Again to be clear, there is only one device on the market that has the same functionality as this - the Fujitsu, and I love the functionality and the excellent keyboard, but I can't really rely on the machines quality at all.  
    More accurately I can only rely on the lack of build quality :<
