I get an error msg when I try to open a file using adobe reader software. Error States: Adobe Reader could not open ' heels 2014 001.exe bmp because it is not a supported type, file or because the file has been damaged (for example: he was sent as an attachment to e-mail and has not been decoded correctly.).
I tried to send an email with attachments 44 and would not send the email. Ever since I tried to send this e-mail, I have been doing the error msg.
Anyone know how I can get this to work for me again?
Thank you, any help is greatly appreciated.

The file you are trying to open is (you can see from the name) a BMP, PDF files no file. Adobe Reader can only open PDF files, just so stop trying to open it with Adobe Reader. The app, users of Windows for BMP files is painting.

I can possibly open a new session
Firefox takes a little time to close all the files that could be opened while it is running (like 5 seconds), but if the process crashes for as long as 30 seconds or more as you said you can have an add-on or a security program which is at the origin of Firefox takes too long to close completely.
Firefox crashes when you close
You need to look in the processes for firefox.exetab. But if you "kill" process, you might lose data. "Session" data are probably the first type of data that could be lost. Also, close Firefox with lots of tabs / windows open or quickly close tabs or windows immediately before closing of Firefox can result in a prolonged downtime.

I get this message when you try to open Mozilla: the procedure entry point sqlite3_db_status could not be located in the dynamic link library mozsqlite3.dll.
Do a clean reinstall.
Download a new copy of Firefox and save the file to the desktop.
- Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
- Uninstall your current version of Firefox.
- Do not remove the data of a personal nature when you uninstall the current version.
Delete the program folder Firefox before installing newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
- It is important to remove the Firefox program folder to delete all the files and make sure that there is no problem with the files that were the remains after uninstallation.
Your bookmarks and other profile data is stored in the Firefox profile folder and will not be affected by a relocation, but make sure that you do not select delete data of a personal nature if you uninstall Firefox.

Can someone help me?
I just found a solution to my problem and I would like to help someone else with this problem. I had two accounts that I could check my e-mail, one @ a @ live.com and hotmail.com

I get this message when you launch the browser in Photoshop CS 3
I just got a new macbook pro that I allocated GB 401 on my bootcamp for windows xp partition, and I put Photoshop CS3 (windows version) on this partition, which about 80-90 GB is used while the rest is space free space. I also put my photo on this partition folders/files, and when I run the Photoshop application, I get this dialog box when I click on 'File' > 'Browse' (see image).
When I launched photoshop on my old laptop (HP Compaq Presario X 6000 running Windows XP) I've never had this kind of message - is something wrong
How can I do if I don't get this message?
Here are the specs of my macbook pro:
Model name: MacBook Pro
Model identifier: MacBook Pro5, 3
Processor name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor speed: 3.06 GHz
Number of processors: 1
Total number of cores: 2
How can I paste my messages from another forum on my posts here? (Frustrated).
It does not properly detect some most likely SSE extensions, but don't let it stop you. It's just a side effect of computers becoming too recent for 3 year old software. Even if in strictly technical terms, there would be a performance degradation, reinforced specs of the newest processors would more than make up for it...

I am running OS X Lion 10.7.5 who, according to some forums I read should be good for this free trial version.
No idea what to do, any help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

In order to use Photoshop CC, you will need the OS 10.9 or later version.
As a free trial version you can try Creative Cloud 2015 Apps, which are compatible with 10.9 or higher
