How do I stop firefox from redirecting every page I click on in Google search? No matter what I search for in Google when I click on it Firefox redirects me to some other search, sales, or contest page. I have a security program running, no maleware, adware, or virus on my pc. Thanks for the help in advance.

Sounds like a dose of search redirect malware or a redirect virus.

  • How do I stop apps from reloading every time I unlock my iPhone?

    How do I stop apps from reloading every time I unlock my iPhone? I have an iPhone 4 and at least 95% of the time I unlock it, some apps act as though they are reinstalling. It only lasts for about 3 seconds if that but it makes me feel like something is wrong with it. Does anyone else have this problem??

    Could you explain what you mean by this? What is happening that makes you think they're reinstalling?

  • How do I stop InDesign from crashing every time I open a certain file?

    I tried to move a 2 page spread to the beginning of a 52 page layout and InDesign crashed. I tried recovery and it would crash each time seconds after opening. I tried closing every thing, hard boot, then opening from the file. It opened fine then in 2 seconds it crashed. I tried a different file and there was not a problem. How do I keep it from crashing my 52 page file?

    The file could be corrupted. Do you have a backup?

  • How do I stop iPhoto from launching every time I sync my iPhone?

    I have looked for something in Preferences on both my iPhone's PHOTOS tab as well as in iPhoto but cannot find where to tell whatever I need to tell to stop iPhoto from launching automatically every time I hook up my iPhone to my Mac to sync. This is really annoying and I'd so much rather just handle anything like that via the iTunes interface vs. another window/program that has to operate to deal with stuff on the iPhone. It's INelegant at best and just simply a pain in the arse at worst.

    You mean I can use this Image Capture thing for moving stuff from scanners as well?
    You bet. Some don't prefer using iPhoto to store all imported digital camera photos or any such application (not sure why but to each his/her own) so Image Capture can be used instead which is a simple import/transfer application. Using Image Capture, you can download some or all, remove photos from the camera after the download process, select a default download location or create a new folder in the location of choice and use a chosen automatic task such as crop to a 4' x 6' which occurs after the download process is complete.
    A nice simple little application which has some juice for those who don't like using iPhoto or similar type application.
    I'm in the habit of rooting around the applications folder and utilities folder with a new Mac purchase so I was aware of Image Capture but I've always preferred using iPhoto for my digital camera import process.

  • How do I stop iphoto from opening every time I connect my iphone to my computer?

    I don't really want to sync my iphone with my iphoto. Whenever I plug my phone into my computer, iphoto automatically opens and asks if I want to sync. Is there a way to stop this from happening?
    Thanks!

    The RIGHT way is to copy photos from your phone to iPhoto and delete them from the Camera Roll. If you still want them on the iPhone add them back to the photo album app. The Camera Roll is a bad place to leave photos that are important, and a silly place to leave photos that are not. It is intended as temporary storage, jost like any digital camera.
    iPhone will not open if the camera roll is empty.

  • How do you stop videos from interrupting every second or so during playback (since upgrading to iOS7)?

    I've just upgraded and now every time I try to play a video it stops every couple of seconds.  It worked perfectly before installing this loathesome upgrade. I have plenty of surplus memory so this isn't an issue.

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • I don't want to see the Create, etc window when opening PS CC2014. How do I stop it from appearing EVERY time I start PS?

    Overall, I like PS CC 2014. However, the most annoying thing is the popup window that appears EVERY time I start the program. It's the one with "Create", etc at the top and links to a bunch of videos. How do I make it so I no longer have to see it any more?

    Scroll to the bottom of the Welcome screen. There you can tick 'Don't show ...'

  • How do I stop FunMoods from opening every time I open a new tab.

    I tried changing the about:config line url:blank but that didn't work. Screw FunMoods.

    Try to reset the funmoods prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page.
    *Open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>funmoods</i> via the Search bar at the top of the about:config page.<br />
    *Reset all <i>funmoods</i> related prefs that appear bold (user set) via the right-click context menu to their default values.

  • How do you stop iPhoto from loading every time you dock the iPhone?

    I would like to NOT have iPhoto start up every time I plug in my iPhone. I am sure there must be an easy way to do this. Thanks!

    There are two different topics in this thread, and two separate "sync photo" issues with iPhone.
    1) Syncing photos to iPhone, similar to the process if you had an iPod. This is handled as mentioned above, from within iTunes.
    2) Syncing photos from iPhone, as with any camera. This is handled from within iPhoto, also as mentioned above.
    I just wanted to point out that these are two independent processes, able to be modified separately.
    If you have cleared out the iPhone and/or not taken any more pictures, it will not cause iPhoto to pop up.

  • How do I stop this from capitalizing every first letter!

    Every time I try to enter an email or a password my iPad insists on capitalizing the first letter! See! It even insisted on capitalizing the P in iPad! I have tried everything! I have tried holding down the shift key. I have tried caps or non caps. I realize that this is making it easier to write this message, but I think I'd rather just do it myself!

    The default is to capitalize a letter after the end of the prior sentence when you enter any type of punctuation. iPad is defaulted to iPad as that is how it is spelled by Apple. I don't think you can get around the way it works.

  • How do I stop iTunes from autofilling every time I sync my iPod touch?

    Everytime i sync my ipod touch 4th gen (32gb ios5) with my mac (10.7) itunes (10.5.1) removes and replaces about 1000 to 2000 songs! this is fine except it takes hours and all i want to do is put a new cd om my ipod, not change a couple of thousand songs.
    so my question is how do i get my ipod back to normal manualy manged music mode?
    also, restoring isn't an option as my music is stuck on a hdd that i don't have an enclouse for (previous one broke).
    Any and All help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks, Jesse

    Hello Jesse,
    Autofill is only available when you sync manually. So switching to automatic sync (and then back to manual) should disable it.
    Here is a a support page that explains how to set up auto fill, when you plug your iPod in.

  • How can I stop FCPX from loading every project on a drive?

    Every time I connect an external hard drive with FCP projects and events on them, Final Cut reads and loads every project which significantly slows down the program and my MacBook. Are there any settings or plugins/scripts that would give you the option of loading only a specific project and it's events and ignoring the others on the drive?

    Move them out of the Events and/or Projects folder!

  • How do I stop Photoshop from crashing every time I select the print command?

    Mac OSX 10.9. Epson Artisan 1430 just installed driver update after it started crashing but it didn't help. Also crashes with HP printer.

    Try the steps here:FAQ: How do I reset my preferences?
    Then when you start Photoshop, Open a file, and Cmd P to open the Print dialog.
    Then press your Option key and you will see the Cancel button, and it will change to a Reset button.
    Click on Reset.
    Close the Print dialog, close the file, exit and restart Photoshop.
    Hopefully this will work.

  • How do I stop iPhoto from freezing every time I open it?

    My O/S is Mac OS X Version 10.6.8.
    iPhoto version is 8.1.2
    Does anyone know of a way to fix this so iPhoto will open without freezing?

    Remember this was a test. It tells us that iPhoto is essentially sound and the issue is within your main library.
    Let's try repair that:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Idvd loads every time after log on. how do i stop this from happening.

    every time i log on to imac g5, idvd5 loads and i have to "quit" the application to close the program window. how do i stop this from happening every time i log on?

    If it appears in the Dock, control-click it and uncheck Open at Login. Otherwise, open the Accounts pane of System Preferences and remove it as well as anything which may launch it from the list of login items for your user account.
