ThBird: after running for some time on Mac, I noticed the loss of contact, the highest use of resources...
Hi, first post so excuse despises.
On Mac OS X 10.6.8.
When I start TB he moved to processor low use (0, 0-0, 1%) after the initial activity. There are some file access.
After some use (cannot be precise if it could be as little as first check for mail, certainly with 20 minutes) the process uses 5.5% or more at any time when TB is 'inactive' as far as I'm concerned. There is a flow of constant IO even though many are stat or similar rather than full read/write.
Also, several times I found the most much of my contacts are not available (even my own account acting) Although some are.
It disappears if I restart TB.
Haven't checked but suspect that these may be contacts in my contacts OSX/phone etc. Did not time check which is common to accounts that remain - suspect they would be accumulated addresses in TB files.
Also, I was amazed how many fonts are opened by the CT (guessing almost everyone, I opened, several 100) which seems a strange thing to do if it is not really needed. I wonder if a file handle limit results in the problem of contacts.
I hope that this gives to encourage thoughts. I can do some searching, but the clock is ticking right now.
(I lost the weeks pass to TB from Outlook when Virgin UK moved to gmail hosted in their own platform.) A lot of data migrated but TB helps rebuild a functional archiving messaging system.)

Just checked more closely and he are a 850 font files open and 100 or so files. It's probably a little crazy in terms of resources.
It's weird. But he has been so on Mac for many years. Maybe even in version 2. I have not yet tracked when put obtained behavior implemented.
The behavior is noticed in Firefox bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701661 and bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=800279 Thunderbird

Saving a system using win + L or an automatic log out after awhile and then to connect it will open in the same account that she used last time. I still want to ask an administrator password before returning inside the system.
Uzair,
The short answer is - you can't do what you want to do.
Deletion of all accounts & just running things an Admin account will make it easier for horses Trojans enter your system - see Why use a standard account instead of an administrator account? [you can also see this information in the help file of the computer management window].
You should then be in using a Standard account for daily activities & keeping a password protected administrator account just for authorising facilities, etc. This, judging from your description seems to be exactly what you are doing.
I should also mention something else I want to give you half a story. Make a second password protected administrator account. From any account may suffer from corruption of the user profiles to use, your current Admin account could one day be the account who suffers from this corruption of the user profiles. Having another Admin account as a reserve protects you against this possibility - it could then enter the system using the second Admin to fix things. You should also make a password reset disk for each account on the computer.
All the best,

This problem does not appear to exist until "free" download of Windows 10 installed. I've waited too long to return to 8.1, now stuck with the $ @# @ 10 software. Using a FF browser "synchronized" to work (win 7) I have no problems with the cyclical lag during typing, scrolling, etc. Be totally irritated with win 10, I tried once again to try Linux (Mint) and noticed that the SHIFT does not seem to be there when you use FF in Linux, which has installed from their 'package '. This shift occurs every 7 seconds to 3 seconds of insensitive cursor, typing keystrokes, scrolling action... whatever. Suspecting some 'supplement' to go funky, I have removed ALL addons... no improvement. This forum works on 64-bit, 2 gig memory, relatively new machine that had no question to win 10.
Hello
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.
You will need to restart Firefox before this takes effect so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).
Then perform the following steps:
- Click the menu button
then select the Options under Windows or Preferences on Mac or Linux.
- Select the Advanced Panel, then on the general tab.
- Uncheck the use hardware acceleration when available.
- Restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
This solve your problems? Please report to us!
If the problem is resolved, you should check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in these articles in the knowledge base:
Thank you.

For some time now as bookmarks and Tools menus will be dark outside and only reveal after a quick mouse above. I am running windows 7, more recent updates and the latest version of Firefox. I have linked an example of picture of what happens to my bookmark menu.
Hello, you can try to reproduce this behavior when you start firefox in safe mode, once? Otherwise, it might be a problem with hardware acceleration...

Google Calendar becomes inactive in Firefox. Can not navigate, cannot change the appointments, can only view an appointment, then freezes and nothing is more possible.
Reset Firefox solves the problem for some time (sometimes minutes), then it becomes inactive.
Firefox 28.0, Windows 7.
Google Calendar is OK in Android and syncs with my PC OK.
Works fine in Internet Explorer.
Please notify.The extension Freeven pro is probably the problem. Only that disable and check again.
If you have the same problem after having disabled the extension pro Freeven then, disable graphics hardware acceleration.
You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).
Then perform the following steps:
- Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
- In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.
- You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
- Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:
In safe mode hardware, acceleration is disable by default.
Thank you.

My slowsdown LV after running for several hours program
Hello
Could you please help me in my problem explained below.
My experiences require to run the program from LV for 2-3 days in a stretch of collecting data to 10 Hz speed using a release configuration. But after running for a few hours, the program slows down, not buying the data with the same speed. If I restart the program again, it works very well with the required speed.
I have LV v4.0.1 running in my Windows 2000 operating system. I have the card PCI-GPIB connected to Lecroy 8901 GPIB interface for data acquisition. I also LAB - PC + to control some engines.
I have NEITHER-DAQ 6.6, NI-VISA for windows 95 / NT installed in my system.
I thought that the problem could be my low end computer and recently updated with motherboard relatavely high speed and RAM. But the problem is still there.
I have attached my program with this message file.
valueble suggestions are greatly apprecited.
Thank you.

virus: I struggled with the virus for some time and cannot get rid of them
I have struggled with the virus for some time and cannot get rid of them. I bought a few programs, but they have also been infected. any suggestions for a really good virus buster.
Hello
First of all, an antivirus solution to an already infected system of loading is usually pretty useless. The bug will block all attempts to remove or load what it sees as a threat. Second, without knowing which virus you are affected by, it is difficult to be precise.
You can take action include:
(a) work in safe mode, there is much less likely that the virus is able to load and resist actively.
(b) the safe mode, run utilities malwarebytes.org and AV solution that was installed * before * your infection.
(c) post is back with a better description of what is on your system to learn more targeted advice.

I haven't used itunes for some time and now have a new PC. I've updated my account (change password) but when I connect to my music went? I am working on Win 8 and still have part of my collection on an ipod.
Unless you subscribe to iTunes game (which is not a complete solution anyway) your iTunes Library is on your previous PC - solution the easiest is to copy from here or from a backup. For more information, see How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support . Previous purchases from the iTunes Store may be available for re - download - see download your past - purchases of Apple Support.
If none of these approaches allows to recover the contents of your library, see user turingtest2 on recover your iTunes from your iPod or an iOS device library for a list of tools and methods that can be used to copy the media etc from iPod to iTunes.

My HP Pavilion zv5240 running WindowsXP SP3, its power off suddenly by itself after running for 20-30 min. eventhough works on economy mode. What is going on?
This could be an overheating problem. If your CPU overheats, then the power will suddenly cut to your computer. Boot safe mode starts with less processeses and running tasks and so your computer can run more fees. Since you get 20 to 30 minutes, the way to check this is to download and run freeware 'CoreTemp '.
<>http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp/ >
It displays the temperature of your CPU and show you if it is not too hot before you stop.
The two main causes of overheating are fans of CPU does not and a build-up of dust in your computer that acts as a blanket and causes overheating. If overheating is your problem, open the case, check the appropriate fan and buy a can of compressed air to blow the dust bunnies.
Another possible cause is bad RAM (memory) memory modules. Try to remove and re - insert your RAM modules. There are also tests of RAM, you can run - although they tend to be CPU, so you won't know if you have a RAM problem or a problem of temperature.

dad bought me a computer PORTABLE from NUTRIGEST I HAVE BEEN out of the CITY FOR SOME TIME AND LATER BETWEEN the AUTHENTICITY CODE PRODUCT, AND IT's not SAYIING VALID, BUT I KNOW THAT can NOT BE TRUE
If it is a new machine call or go to circuit city and get them fixed. If they sold you the laptop, indicating that it included Windows XP then the onus is on them that provide you a valid COA and the product key.
