  • I don't know what to do about Java - my Mac is horribly slow, and I was advised to remove Java. But now it will not open Photoshop without Java.

    I don't know what to do about Java - my Mac is horribly slow, and I was advised to remove Java, it installs adware. The more I studied, the more information, I've seen say that most of the Web sites and software do not use Java on Mac more. So I deleted everything related with Java. But now it will not open Photoshop without Java. It will be safe if I get it directly from the Oracle site?

    You can download the installer for OS X directly from Oracle. Be sure to uncheck everything installs 'optional' which can appear at the beginning (I think on Windows it wants to install McAfee trial or the toolbar Bing - not really malware, more as desired and useless crud-ware).  I have a course Java JRE install on my MacBook Pro retina like some internal tools we have developed to work are currently java and I use a tool of u. Toronto called CytoScape is Java.  Sites Web will use Java Script, a very different beast and does not require a full Java or JRE install.  But with Java/JRE installed, just be sure of the source of any software that you download and install that is java based (as you should with all the software that you put on your machine).

    In addition, for PhotoShop, it says that you need the legacy Java 6 for OS X?  If so, then don't waste your time on the current version, just install that release 6 legacy.

  • Why firefox will not start after update?

    Update the alert message. Did a hard stop. Rebooted computer and Firefox will not open.

    Maybe during the update some files were corrupted, try a clean reinstall:

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.

  • I removed a secondary hard drive but now Vista will not boot. I tried startup repair, but failed. What alternatives are there?

    It is a desktop computer that I built myself, so I have no tech support. Until I removed the hard drive, I formatted to remove all data. Since then, Vista does not start. I used my installation disc to repair Vista, but that has failed. I tried the system restore, which was a success, but Vista still does not start. What else can I do to solve this problem.

    Hello itisallgeektome,

    Open Control Panel and click on Administrative Tools. In the Administrative Tools window, click computer management, and then in the next window, click on disk management. When the disk management window opens look down the list of partitions and see if you have a "system reserved" partition This is where the system files are stored.

    If you have installed the drive 'after' that you installed vista, then I accept the boot files would not be on the second drive, but it seems strange that the windows repair option will not correct the bootloader. However, by doing an inplace upgrade this will re - install windows vista (but it will not, or should not affect your files/programs (However it might be useful to back up all the important files that you cannot just in case beed)). As a complete reinstallation is completed, it will create a new bootloader in the process.

  • After downloading and installing an update of safety about an hour ago, firefox will not start

    After going online this morning, with my firefox browser, a box came say a security update was available and must be downloaded and installed. This has been done without apparent problem. At the end of the update, a note came up saying that the update should come into service after restarting my computer. What I've done. The computer started normally, but after clicking on the firefox icon, the program is not started. My computer is using Windows XP Service Pack 3.

  • 32 Firefox will not start after a download.

    On windows XP sp3. Chrome and Iexplorer 8 will take place. Firefox will launch. Cannot run firefox.exe Pei either.

    You can start Firefox in Safe Mode by holding down the shift/Options button?

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the program folder before Firefox to (re) install a new copy of the current version of Firefox.

    If possible to uninstall your current version of Firefox to clean the Windows registry and settings in the security software.

    • Do NOT remove the "personal data" when you uninstall your current version of Firefox, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data such as bookmarks and passwords including data profiles created by other versions of Firefox.

    Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

    • (32-bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    • (Windows 64 bit) "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a uninstall and (re) install, but do NOT delete personal data when you uninstall Firefox which removes all Firefox profile folders and you lose your data.

    If you keep problems also create a new profile.
