• Firefox won't open indicating his aready runs when it's not

  Firefox argued that his race and tells me that I have to restart my computer, I made... its still saying that his race, then I removed the battery for 5 minutes and tried again... still says his race, then I tried to uninstall... refuses to open the uninstall application

  Make sure that the profile of default value = 1 in profiles.ini points to an existing profile folder.

  You can remove profiles.ini to force Firefox to create a new default profile.

• Missing profile - cannot create new one - uninstalled FF - revenue W8.1 said earlier - already running when you try to re - install FF - many reboots VIPRE IS

  original error was "already in the process of running FF" - not the view in the task manager - not could close - restarted several times - same results - uninstalled FF and tried the download & installation of new - same message "already running." W8.1 revenue by about 3 weeks (3 updates) - same result when installing FF = already "running." After the message "already running" is always the profile is missing or inaccessible.

  Do the same thing with TB BTW. Using the latest version of VIPRE internet security on automatic update. Nothing like on a W7 and XP machine on the same LAN. Is there a virus on corrupting FF? Scan VIPRE says nothing about the machine of 8.1...

  This is usually caused by a problem with the file profiles.ini and the profile marked as the default value = 1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.

• Firefox 15.0.1 gives an error message when you try to connect to my account @u.boisestate.edu

  I am a student at Boise State. When I try to access my broncomail account, or when I try to access broncomail mailed to Firefox, I get the following message is displayed.

  The page is not redirecting properly

           Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
   This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept
     cookies.
  

  Cookies are not disabled, and I have not had this problem with earlier versions of Firefox.

  The other thing I notice is that the little green circle on the tabs for Blackboard BroncoWeb often seem to never ceases to turn.

  Firefox reload usually does not help that much because most of the problems are caused by settings and customizations. Before you try this, you might want to try Firefox reset. More info in this article: Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons.

  I should have checked that before... when I click on connect to Broncomail, I find myself at Google. Is Broncomail actually a customized version of Gmail? I think one or two people say this problem on Gmail every week.

  The typical cause is probably crossed to cookies, so if you a not already clear your cookies from Google.com , please try this.

  About performance issues, try disabling use Firefox of accelerated graphics hardware. You need to restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

  Hi once again, fortunately today I bring better news! As a result of a serious lack of assistance from Apple themselves, have no idea of "The Tech Guys" in the world PC and extremely unnecessary hours at Microsoft, I've sorted it me. In other words, the main problem with mine was the Apple Software Updater. Even with "Revo" I was unable to remove it. I decided to download "Windows Installer Clean Up" from there where I could find (it was also free!). I used it and immediately found, I could choose the Apple Software Updater and remove it with very little hassle in all. I proceed to download the new iTunes, and I'm a very happy Bunny! Thanks for nothing, Microsoft and Apple! Hope this helps - Dan

• "The action cannot be completed because the file is open in another program" error when you try to delete folders in Windows 7

  I've just updated 5 machines for a client to windows XP Pro to Windows 7 Pro. their data is stored on a server (SBS 2003) and so far, if they wanted to move files or folders or update documents Word / Excel sheets that they could do to will be no problem. What seems to happen now, is that if they try to edit files, then re-save (Word Documents, data sheets Excel etc), they are told the file is in use and changes cannot be saved. We have also upgraded their MS office Pro 2003 to 2010 Small Business but this seems to affect all based not only social files, so for example if I try and move a PDF file from one folder to another I get "file is used and can not be moved / deleted.

  I also have another customer with the same problem, same configuration (positions upgraded Windows XP Pro to Windows 7 Pro) they also have problems with moving / deleting files from the shares on a SBS 2003 Server?

  I checked the server and the files are certainly not open where else?

  Can someone help me on this...

  I also tried the following to see if I can cure the problem:

  I changed the parameters of GP on Small Business SERVER 2003 as follows:

  User configuration - administrative models - Windows components.

  • Click on Windows Explorer.
  • Right click on the entry 'disable caching of thumbnails in the hidden thumbs.db files', then select Edit.
  • Select the parameter.

  like apparently Windows 7 stores files in a Thumbs.db file information & to see if that makes a difference, but still no change.

  It's seriously trying my patience and my clients are now wondering if they have windows XP back!

  Surely theres a fix for this somewhere?

  Should also add that I have disabled offline files that I thought that this may be the cause of the problem, but no change.

• IDCC saying pages are empty when you try to print

  OK, so I had this kind of problem before, and I've followed all the advice that I would have been on it before and still can't make it work. Basically, I'm trying to print a full page of flood to be printed above on an offset press. There are two layers on the page that contains offset press printing and one that contains the flood. I hid the layer offset press and try to print anything else than the flood. When I do, IDCC tells me that the page is empty. I've checked the attributes of the object object flood fill, and it had disabled unprintable. I've checked the attributes of layers, and he "felt" checked. So, I swapped the attribute of unprintable object, and then on the road to force the ID to change the State of the object. I did the same thing with the impression of the layer attribute. Same problem, so I saved to and then opened an IDML file to try to deal with all the corruption in the file. No luck, it is still saying that the page is empty. (overview of overprinting and page in the pages pane icons show the proper fill flood)

  Could someone please help? I'm pretty sure it's something stupid that I do.

  Certainly not correct. Inscription separates on each plate.

  Add a plate spot for the task of color and the flood zone to overprint. Put it on a layer by itself at the top of the stack, so you can hide while you work.

• QuickTime is saying "stopped the operation" when you try to share on Youtube. Why? And how to fix it!

  My computer told me that my boot drive was full and I had to make room before recording my video, so I went to 'share' on youtube so that I wouldn't lose for good (cannot be recreated - for a class), and in the middle of download he stopped and said "the operation stopped. Now, I can't click on anything or do anything! I'm terrified that I'm going to lose.

  Stop trying to 'share on Youtube' & find a better way to back up your data.

  Your task will be to keep fault for this reason... QuickTime allows you to convert your movie in another format from Youtube, it takes disk space - you already have too little disk space, if the operation fails. If you keep trying you can simply make the disk is too full for that it starts properly!

  A better solution is to find a USB hard drive or even a flash drive & save the files on that so you can delete files on your disk to free up space. Running with no free space will cause many weird questions.

  There are a lot of apps that allows you to copy your entire drive - ask if nee help you with that. Creating a bootable backup is the best way to avoid data loss. Relying on Youtube to keep important files is a very bad idea - they often files down if violations of copyright are found etc.

• slui.exe 4 - does not respond when you try to phone activation

  Hello

  I had to reinstall win7 ultimate retail 64 bit (geographical limited version) on my computer and had previously phone activated without any problems.
  However when this time this tour when it prompted me to activate, running slui.exe does not (no dialog box etc..)
  I ran a search on the other topics on slui.exe and found no useful answers.
  Appreciate that someone can advise on how to fix. Thank you.
  * edit *-I ran a search on "Activate windows", which is under the control panel > system, however by clicking New produces no result. Also when in the form of the system, there is no current activation information. I hope the info helps diagnose the problem

  This activation problem may occur if the Service for the Protection of software (SPPSVC) is stopped or damaged. Normally this isn't a problem, since you can just restart the Service. Sometimes, an error is received when you try to restart the Service. This indicates a more serious cause of 'root' for the service having damaged.

  Restart the Software License Manager Service:
  =====================================
  (If you have access to the Start button):

  1) click the Start button
  (2) type: cmd in the search field
  (3) at the top of the start window, you will see cmd.exe
  (4) right click on cmd.exe and select run as administrator
  (5) type: net start sppsvc

  (If you do not have access to the Start button):

  1) click on the option that launches an Internet browser
  (2) a browser opens, type: %windir%\system32 in the address field
  (3) find the cmd.exe file
  (4) make a right click on the cmd.exe and select run as administrator
  (5) type: net start sppsvc

  Let me know if that helps, otherwise we have a lot more that can be tried.

• Firefox does not open after the update. Cannot open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path

  I'm using Firefox on a Windows 7 computer. Firefox does not open after the last update. I read the help articles and it seems that I need to create a new profile because my settings were probably corrupted. I'm unable to open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path. I tried the following commands in the command line:

  Firefox Pei
  "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla" PEI

  Nothing happens with every order.

  I am also running Norton Internet Security. I read a help of virtual navigation features Re article that can cause a problem. The article says to check the setting of virtualization in the internet security software and to clear the virtual cache. I went through all the menus of settings in Norton Internet Security version 21.6.0.32 and I don't see anything that looked like in "virtualization" settings, so I guess that does not apply to me. "

  If you have any ideas, I had appreaciate that your expertise!

• Firefox 36.0.1 on a Mac running Yosemite 10.10.2 crashes when you try to open the Add-ons Manager

  I am running Firefox 36.0.1 on an iMac with Yosemite 10.10.2. Firefox works fine except that it freezes and I have to force quit the application whenever I try to choose modules in the Tools menu. I've never had this problem before. This problem happened for three consecutive days with my iMac rebooted several times. The same problem occurs when you try to access the modules from the open menu icon. Does anyone have a solution? Thank you!

  If you put this in the url bar: subject: addons
  This also happens? If this isn't the case, add the back icon and remove it to reset.

• When you try to start Firefox I get a message saying "a copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time. "I started a new profile, but the Profile Manager always tells me that by default it is still in use.

  When you try to start Firefox, even once, I got a message saying "close Firefox. A copy of Firefox is already open. Only one copy of Firefox can be open at a time. "This issue is addressed in Mozillazine but nothing I've tried there seems to work. I started a new profile in the profile manager that gets at least upwards and the functioning, but strangely enough the Manager also told me the old (default) profile is still underway, although I can't find a way to close it. Also, I can't find the default profile in my Profile Manager. can anyone help?

  This has happened

  Just once or twice

  == I thought that I had left Firefox and he was new.

  I get the same problem from time to time. It is not a solution but I go into Task Manager (select by right clicking on an empty area of the start bar) and under the research process and, invariably, there is a 'hidden' version to use the FF. I selects & close via Task Manager and then am able to restart FF.
