Version 5.0 will not offload the memory when I close. This translates not being able to open FF later unless I manually go and close the application in Windows Task Manager. Any ideas because it becomes very frustrating.

I have this problem on 3 computers just updated with FF 5.0. When I close FF, the application "Firefox.exe * 32" remains in memory. Trying to open FF later greets me with the error that FF can't open because another instance of FF is already running. Previous versions is completely discharged and has never caused this problem...

You can check your add on for compatibility, there may be conflicts.

For now, you can use the command "End task" in the Task Manager to close Firefox before opening another version.

  • How can I fix the problem of not being able to open files by double clicking with photoshop

    How can I fix the problem of not being able to open files with photoshop by double-clicking it in windows Explorer?

    This problem affects psd, jpg, and png files.  I get an error saying "the program can't start because adbeape.dll is missing on your computer.  I can open all these types of files in the menu 'open' in photoshop.  It is not a matter of them not having no not extensions.  I use windows 7.

    Thank you

    Thanks for the update.

    Just for test, could you please rename Photoshop.exe to Photoshop CC2015.exe location: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC2015

    then change the file association to the new renamed exe file and let us know if this helps or not.

  • Second firefox.exe appearing in the process in Windows Task Manager...

    Hi all!

    I started facing this problem a few days ago and do not know what is the cause:

    In my Windows Task Manager, there are two firefox.exe that appear under the process (under Applications, Firefox only appears once). I used to complete the process to close each of the firefox.exe that appear and the result was special. Depending on whether one I finish, either the window closes completely as well as all tabs or hangs the tab that is currently open and I get the message: "bad new first: this tab broke down."

    I scanned my computer with AVG for viruses and everything was clean back. I've also scanned with ESET for malware and nothing was found.

    Any idea what I can do to fix this? Any help would be appreciated.

  • Update for VISTA Business automatically leads to not being able to open the attachment in Windows Mail

    After an automatic update from Microsoft for VISTA Business on July 16, I now can't open attachments in the reading of e-mail messages in Windows Mail.  An error message indicates that the file is not found.  I have now to save all attachments and open my files before I read attachments.  It's very frustrating.  I had a similar experience, only a couple of weeks where a parameter is passed by an automatic update to VISTA leading to read all the emails being hidden from view.  I had never seen that before and it cost me £40 to get DELL Technical Support to sort for me.  Microsoft should not do this kind of thing are they?  Should I just revert to the original system (I have to pay DELL to do it for me) and just not allow Microsoft Update VISTA more.  I have my own business, no IT support and I want to just use my easy notebook for standard applications.  Nothing complicated.  I can't afford to waste time and money sorting on my laptop when I should run my own business in very difficult times.  Thanks to anyone who can advise me.

    I understand exactly what you're saying.

    Try this with updates to uninstall the problem and change the eo settings you decide what it is installed:

    Click Start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

    > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

    > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

    When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the update causing you problems.

    > or if you do not need an individual > right-click on > UAC prompt > hide it

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I want to transfer my Photoshop CS6 of Windows to Mac. My drive is a single Windows software. How to migrate from Windows to Mac. I don't see how to contact adobe to ask directly. Thank you, I do not want to subscribe to Photoshop CC cloud or buy a new Mac Photoshop CS6 disk.

    You must ask for a swap of platform your PC CS6 cleaner and install CS6 on your Mac with the new Adobe series provide you. A product for another language or version of trading platform

    You can also still buy perpetual CS6 700 $ $1000 Standard extended.

  • not being able to open an application

    I downloaded a third party application, but when I tried to open it, it kept showing that the program has stopped working.it says that a problem could have stopped the program run correctly... which could possibly have happened.i downloaded several times and the same thing happened every time... Please answer

    Hi Praveen,

    Thank you for the update on the issue.

    If the problem persists, try to check the system files are they work very well or not and to check who are trying to run the (SFC) System File Checker tool. System File Checker is a Windows utility that allows users to find corruptions in Windows system files and restore the damaged files. If a Protection of resources Windows (WRP) file is missing or is damaged, Windows may not behave as expected. For example, some Windows functions may not work, or Windows may crash.

    How to use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows 8.

    1. Press Windows key and X at the same time.

    2. Choose line (Admin) command on the shortcut menu.

    3. At the command prompt, type sfc/scannow and press ENTER.

    4. Exit the command prompt.

  • Briefcase and not being able to open files

    I created a case and sent to a public folder in the office then sent the case to another office.  Added email and document to this file, but now when I try to open it, it says the file is open on another computer and can not be open - or something like that.  No other files are open.  Notice also that in the case in short there are folders with the same name and with the same files? -How can I access this information on just this computer?

    Hi, Pat.

    Go in your Briefcase and for all files that are NOT tagged orphan

    Right-click on the file and select Properties.

    Click on the update status tab

    Click Split from Original

    Press Yes and your file is back for an orphan.

    If you wish to continue using the synchronization options with the towel (on 2 or more computers) and you get this message when you try to save a file, close all folders and/or the portfolio himself and you should have access to the towel.

    http://www.computing.NET/answers/Windows-XP/Briefcase-is-in-use-by-another-comp/92485.html

    Until you try to synchronize the Briefcase, make sure that all files are closed.

    You can use Briefcase to keep files in sync between two different computers, even if the computers aren't on the same network. If the computers aren't on the same network, you can copy files from one computer to another by using removable media, work on those files using the other computer, and then use Briefcase to sync the changes back to the original computer only.

  • CS5-> CS6 upgrade hangs, block the windows Task Manager, does nothing else

    Got the CS6 Design Standard update, hoping to upgrade from CS5 Design Premium. Could it be the problem? I don't have all the added bonus and this stuff is ridiculously expensive.

    In any case, I put the disc, nothing happens. I run the set - up.exe, the disc spins, then nothing continues to happen. I watched it for up to 5 minutes and nothing.

    Set - up.exe isn't in Applications, but it's in the process in windows Task Manager. However, there is no real activity at all. When I try to end the process, WTM crashes. I have to every hard reboot or eject the disc in order to recover.

    What gives? I can post PDApp.log if need be, but I don't know how much help it will be.

    W7 Pro 64-bit

    So it turns out that it was the reader. I installed an internal DVD SATA drive and it ran the update without fault. Just in case someone else stumbles across this post with a similar problem, make sure that you do not install the update of an external USB DVD drive, specifically a Samsung SE-S084. It won't work.

    Thanks for the help guys!
