    Hi Jason,

    Can't you see it's not "SECURE" in the title bar for documents where the tools are grayed out? If you do, which would indicate that the document has been password protected and perhaps editing restrictions.

    Best,

    Since the 9.1 on my Ipad 2 update my email opens empty screen saying "no message selected. Just click on the mailbox store and select Inbox to display messages.  In addition, when appears in the Inbox, trash icon at the top right disappears.  Update to 9.2.1 thought to solve this, but it didn't.  Have tried reset etc but nothing works.  Anyone have any ideas?

    Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

    • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
    • Press and hold the Home button
    • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

    Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

    If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

    Take a look this Apple Support article: use iTunes to restore the iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.

    Hello lsmalls787, try Firefox Safe Mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that disables certain parameters, disables most Add-ons (extensions and themes).

    If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

    • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

      click Help

      then select restart with disabled modules.

    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

    • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.

    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. Please follow the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

    It's a good start.

    Think the process explorer.exe as your office.  If it does not work because the file is missing, you will have no office or the taskbar, or start button until it runs, so you need to replace.

    c:\windows\explorer.exe file should never be missing.

    It is even difficult to remove on purpose since it's a protected Windows file.

    You haven't told us your situation Antivirus antimalware software, but I suspect whatever it is (effectively deleted) quarantined your explorer.exe file.

    Since it is a protected file, there should be a copy backup of the file in this folder:

    c:\Windows\System32\dllcache

    or, depending on your installation, you might find a copy in this folder:

    c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386

    You must use the Task Manager to click file, new task, browse... and navigate to these folders and search for a backup copy, and if you find the explorer.exe file, copy (Ctrl-c) and paste then copy it (Ctrl-V) in the c:\windows folder where it belongs to replace the missing file.

    Since it should never miss, the backup copy may also be missing, so I put one on my SkyDrive do you can download (sinus your Internet Explorer works) and replace the file c:\windows\explore.exe.

    I downloaded a copy of XP Pro SP3 file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

    You can download it and when you do, place a copy of the file in these two folders (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):

    c:\Windows
    c:\Windows\System32\dllcache (this is where XP keeps backups of important files).

    Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:

    http://CID-6a7e789cab1d6f39.SkyDrive.live.com/redir.aspx?RESID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311

    When you see the files available for download, you will not see the extension of file (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, etc), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

    When you download the file (especially if you use Internet Explorer), when you get a chance to save the file, it cannot save the file with an extension (for example, .exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys) then you will need to manually add the extension appropriate to the file when you download the file before you save it.

    You can download the file without the extension, and then rename the file to add the appropriate extension.  You do not want to use a file called explore when the name of the file should really be called explorer.exe (if the downloaded file has no extension, you will need to change the name of the file to add the appropriate extension to make it work.

    You then put the downloaded files in the correct folders on your system.

    That may not solve all your problems, but at least you will be spending this part and we can then fix the rest.

    You could also get a copy of explorer.exe from a working system and copy it to a floppy or USB key and use the Task Manager to browse replace the file (in two places)

    When the file has been replaced, use use the Task Manager to run this command again:

    %windir%\explorer.exe

    (%windir%\System32 is the c:\windows folder)

    How is it now?
