Firefox crashing randomly, how can I fix?
I tried to reboot in safe mode, but it still crashes. Installation of another profile is not really an option because of my fast dial this is not something that I can save and keep the settings. I have reports of incidents... I use Firefox 29 RC1. I already went back to 28.0 final not beta and its still blocked. It started just as you can tell.

Glad to know that it works again.
Apparently, development and maintenance of the abstract has been suspended. No doubt, you will be able to find a similar extension or use a slightly different workflow.
As for the problem of Flash Player. It is usually best keep the latest version of FlashPlayer. The Flash Player itself support site may be able to shed some light on your problem. Disable the Safe_mode Adobe is relatively simple and easy to do by changing a config file and may be worth a try. If the change does not help, it is reversed in a similar way.
Another thing to consider is testing with hardware acceleration off and possibly updated or even roll back updates the graphics driver.

Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model

Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party

If the problem is related to a corrupted catalog, try to open the organizer with a new empty catalog.
Hold down the SHIFT key at the launch of the Organizer. You get a dialog box with the choice to start with a new catalog, or start with a different catalog and even to 'fix' the current catalog. If your organizer starts with an empty catalog, use the option 'fix' on your corrupt catalog.

Start by looking at roaringapps.com. This Web site shows the applications that are compatible with different versions of OSX. Some of your applications will not be managed (at least not yet) by model. Remember that the application developer needs to update their product to the model, not the other way around.

When I try to change the background, display shows theme instead, properties and when I leave my computer on at a certain time, it freezes. What can I do to fix this? How can I use windows CD to repair, when I put the CD and you press the 'r' key, nothing happens, please help?
The lack of tabs in display properties usually indicates a malware infection. First run the scans and do not skip the preparatory work. If the machine stands (not frozen) in Safe Mode (where you'll be scanning), it is also a good indication of infection. Regarding the CD does not start, you probably don't have the computer configured to boot from the optical drive. But no matter, because enter the Recovery Console (which is what happens when you press 'R' from the XP installation disk) won't be useful in your situation anyway.
Go through these stages of systematically General malware removal:

If you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). Please be aware that not all shops are skilled at removing malware, and even if they are, your computer may be so infested that Windows will have to be properly installed. If possible, have all your data backed up before taking the machine into a shop. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

After I selected an options under the Photo of the window just stop responding.
I tried the solution of deleting com.apple.screensaver. * under ~/Library/Preferences/ but it's not helping
OS version 10.11.4
Version 1.5 of the photo
BTW, apple app to grab screen Grab can save only img in TIFF format, and apple support communities do not accept TIFF format. It is not ironic at all. : )
Once you take the screenshot using the clamp, it should save this file on your desktop. Double-click on this file. It should open in the application preview.
In the Preview menu bar, click on file > export
Letter: JPEG Format popup menu.
Regarding office photos, restart your Mac, then try again.

Firefox 42.0 automatically load a tab 'option' as if a Web site is selected. How can I fix it? I can't find any navigation to prevent that from happening. This started when "ask.com" hijacked my browser. I can now load my selected home page, but can not get the tab 'option' to appear automatically as well as my other sites selected in the tabs above. Thank you.
Firefox uses a vertical bar ("|") in order to separate several home pages.
You can check the setting of the home page to see if the subject: preferences page is included among the home pages (| subject: preferences #general).This can happen if you click on "use current page (s) ' to set the home page and about: preferences is open in a tab.
You can pin the tab with the subject: the preferences page through the context menu of the tab to avoid including: preferences for layout home page if you want to use this button in "Options/Preferences > general".
To set a page as the home page, you can drag the globe/lock for the home button. -
After the V43.0.0.5820, Firefox works but is invisible on the screen. I do not remember what version I have updated since then, but this is done normally under actual multiple monitors as with all other software installed.
Currently it is forcing me to use Internet Explorer, which works flawlessly.
If I stop actual multiple monitors, Firefox won't stay visible well that listed in Windows Task Manager.
When I'm out of multiple monitors, Firefox works normally.
How can I fix it?
I uninstalled V43 and re-installed V42. This seems to have solved the problem. I didn't answer on the forum of the AMM yet but it's still the early days. I'll post a response that I get to help a resolution.

I've just updated my Firefox browser to version 41.0.2 on a Windows 8.1 environment and many pages I visit now display the text you entered. How can I fix it? In my research, I came across an article that suggested to install an add-on that allows a CSS custom script to run, forcing Firefox to change any instance of Helvetica to Arial. However, this article was written three years earlier, and the add-on is no longer available. Any suggestions for someone who is not so tech savvy? ... Thank you!
Could you give an example where you see this problem? For example, we had similar reports on:
- Left the site of Mozilla Add-ons, themes section column
- NewEgg.com left column (menu)
If that's the problem, it's Helvetica Neue. You can use this combination, installation in the following order:
(1) elegant extension, which makes it easy to apply the style changes to webpages and Firefox user interface:
https://addons.Mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/
(2) the user of "Kill Helvetica" style (which actually only swap Arial for Helvetica Neue):
- Left the site of Mozilla Add-ons, themes section column
