I can't open the CD tray!
Hello
I have a Slimline model s5-1010. Tonight, I wanted to put a CD in the optical disc drive, but apparently I do not correctly put in the status bar-oriented vertically, and now the computer will, read the CD or open back so that I can reposition the CD. Pressing on the outside of your box's physical eject button leads to a few attempts to do something obvious, but ultimately, nothing happens. It seems to be stuck.
What can I do to fix this? Is it possible to access the drive without doing major surgery? I am not opposed to the opening of the case, but I prefer not having to disassemble everything if possible.
Thanks for all the ideas.
Jorge, welcome to the forum.
There is a small hole in the middle of the road under the tray. Straighten a paper clip. Stick it in the hole and push. This should open the door.

Why I can't open the preferences system on my iMac
I can't open the preferences system on my iMac 10.5. I reinstalled the software 5.5 and updated. This all started when I ransacked my library. I did it because I found two of them, so I trashed the older. My mac and then frozen.
If you do not empty your trash to one another back
otherwise if you are trashing the system files, you may cause irreparable damage
your safest bet is to backup your data with Time Machine if possible and reinstall the OS, if you have one.

I have a game (Neverwinter Nights) that updates periodically. Yesterday, I got a dialog box asking if it was OK for game to change my computer (happens from time to time). I meant to click 'Yes', but instead accidentally closed the box (which I think will remain always to 'no'). Now, I can not open the game. How can I fix?
Hello stmanley1970, these dialog boxes are not from Firefox, but your windows operating system 7. Therefore, please contact support for this game publisher channels to receive help for that matter...

I cannot download spotify, said "can't open the application because the PowerPC applications are no longer supported. What can I do?
I can't open spotify after it has been installed, said "can't open the application because the PowerPC applications are no longer supported. What can I do?
Thank you!
PowerPC applications have not been supported for many years now since, OS X 10.7.x, you need to look for an alternative to this app or contact the developers of Spotify to see if they have a version for El Capitan 10.11.x

I can not open the last closed tab, does not begin with the tabs
Recently, I noticed that I can not open the last closed tab (the choice is there, but is grayed out).
Then, during the restart, I notice that the system does not restore the tabs visited - even if this choice is made in the Options.I recently installed KeePass and its extension in Firefox and it seems to work (I don't actually use it often). And, recently, I had a problem where the system would resize my pages (as if I hold down the CTRL key while scrolling to me.
Several reboots corrected this problem - but now I can't resize by pressing the Ctrl and scrolling (while holding the Ctrl key and tapping the - key will be resize the window).
Any ideas on how to solve this problem without a complete reinstall? I have been copying my Firefox profile from one computer to another over the years and I am worried about losing my data / preferences.
Thanks in advance!

Uninstalled KeeFox and the problem disappeared.

I can't open the web development tools
I can't open the web developer tools tab in the firefox menu and the text is bold
This happens with all the tools in this menu?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
- Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode safe or make changes.

I've updated to Firefox 11 and now I can't open the PDFs Online. This has happened on more than 1 computer, using the two OS 10.6.8 and OS 7.0 and on more than one Web site. I tried to uncheck "block pop-up windows" in preferences, but which did not help.
When I use Safari to open the same file to pdf, they open fine. Everything worked fine with my Firefox until I did the upgrade.I prefer to continue to use Firefox, but I can't understand the root of the problem.
Has anyone else had this happen as well?
Thank you, gentlemen, to find a "solution" to this particular behavior of Firefox. It is really curious that even if the screen is blank, you can indeed save the .pdf Ghost and then open the saved file to view. What is amazing to me is that this issue does not seem to be what makes the hit parade of the problems currently experienced Mozilla. Not everyone will be willing to do a research project extended rather than leave the ship for Safari, etc..

I can't open the images in Yahoo mail with 7 Firefox, but IE works.
After several years of success with Yahoo mail and Firefox, I can longer open mail of Yahoo (jpg, bmp) images. I can open them in gmail with Firefox or IE. I can open them in Yahoo mail using IE. I am running Firefox 7.0.1 and I think, but am not sure, all my trouble started after the update to this version of Firefox.
RESOLVED: Here is the solution to "I can't open the images in Yahoo mail with 7 Firefox, but IE works." Just before I log on my E-mail Yahoo site I turn on cookies, but I never enable third-party cookies. That has always worked very well until October 2011. Just after I installed the new Firefox 7 this problem started. Now I just found out that the problem is solved, if I enable cookies from third party. Users should not have to enable cookies from third party read the Yahoo mail via Firefox!
