I have changed the settings for my main page so that it's set for Google and it is still pulling on yahoo. I also unistall firefox and re installing it and the same problem persists. What can I do?

I also tried restoring it to the default settings, put in other websites as main page but yahoo is still coming up as the main page. I have downloaded yahoo's toolbar a few months back and have unistalled it a few weeks ago but still nothing has changed.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Check in Add-ons to see if you have any toolbars installed:
[[Uninstalling add-ons|Uninstalling add-ons]]
Because the Ask Toolbar (a custom version I think) is sometimes installed (or offered to be installed) with other programs, such as Foxit Reader.

  • So my iphone 4 that is using ios5 keeps freezing when i want to dial, or receive call. i can use all my other apps but cant use the phone to call because the freezing problem. i know some people that are having the same problem too. what can i do?

    so my iphone 4 that is using ios5 keeps freezing when i want to dial, or receive call. i can use all my other apps but cant use the phone to call because the freezing problem. i know some people that are having the same problem too. what can i do?

    I got the same problem. The percentage of getting this problem is around 10% of all my dial/receive calls.
    The problem usually appears when I receive calls. The phone app will freeze, and I cannot dial or receive calls even I closed the phone app, however, most other apps work properly.
    Once this problem happens, I will not be able to turn off the phone by holding sleep button, the only way I can get rid of it is holding sleep and home button at the same time to reset the iphone.

  • I have Fox, CNN, and BBC always open on my screen using AOL within Firefox. I want to get rid of AOL. What can I do to have the same screen (yes, bookmarks are on the left.

    I want to have several web sites open on my screen at the same time, in "boxes" showing the headlines, like I now have on my AOL screen.
    AOL is not working right, and I want to get rid of it.
    Thanks for your help

    Firefox 4+ versions use a new build-in home page named <b>about:home</b> with a Google search bar on it (no internet access needed to load that page).<br />
    That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
    If you want a home page without the Restore Previous Session button and the snippets then set another page as the home page like www.google.com used in Firefox 3 versions.
    You may be seeing a similar ad on the Google site to install Google Chrome.<br />
    In that case use the close X on that ad to close that pop-up and it should stay away unless local storage gets cleared.

  • Photoshop elements 13 - print area cannot be opened - appcrash.New installation - same problem. What can I do?

    Hi,
    I wanted to print a picture in Photoshop Elements 13, which was installed yesterday.
    But when I push the print button the message appears: Ph. Elements 13 does not work any more. Search for solution ...
    Details: Appcrash. PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
    I was searching for online solution: program closed.
    Does anyone have an idea?
    Shall I go back to version 12?
    Thank you in advance.

    I wanted the bullets on the slide to appear one line at a time that's why I chose to create the slides in PPT. As far as I know this feature doesn't exist in Captivate.
    What I found ended up fixing the problem is  creating a brand new ppt slide, with a brand new text box and typing in the list. The copy/paste appears to be one of the bugs that causes the cut off text. I created a new captivate project importing the PPT slides and when i confirmed it worked in preview, I copied the slide (in captivate) and brought it into my original project.
    That's a lot of rework but now I know what to avoid.
    Thank you for the link.

  • When I click to open firefox, about 20 browsers come up. Uninstalled and reinstalled, same problem. What can I do?

    No further details

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.<br />
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

  • We are on holiday in Mexico. Our iPad has no problem connecting to the Internet through a subscription WiFi network. But, both of our laptops can not with the same password. What can we try?

    We are on holiday in Mexico. Our iPad2 has no problem connecting to the Internet through our hotel's subscription WiFi network. But, both of our macbookpros can not with the same password. What can we try?
    We can join the network, but can not access the Internet. The password is correct. We have tried network assistant and diagnostics, restarting the laptops, re-joining the network. Our iPhone 4s also works all the time.
    Same location. Signal strength is good.

    Since I couldn't figure out a way to edit our original post, here's another potential clue.
    Our laptops, when in System Preferences>Network, say "WiFi has the self-assigned IP address of XXXXXXXXX and will not be able to connect to the Internet".
    Strangely, my six year old MBP running OS 10.6.8 accessed the Internet straight away, just by opening Safari to my home page. My wife's six month old MBP running OS 10.7.2 could not.

  • Is the on/off button bad function a hardware problem? What can I do if a mobile company don't fix this? Besides, my phone still have the apple warranty

    Hello everyone, I bought an iPhone 5 six months ago from a mobile company. now the on/off button is not working properly. I send it to this company technical service support and they didn’t fix it saying that the button problems are not covered by the warranty; moreover they say that warranty just covers software and hardware problems. First, is the on/off button bad function a hardware problem? What can I do if a mobile company don’t fix this? Besides, my phone still have the apple warranty

  • How can I change the settings on my iPhone 5 so that I get new emails automatically? Without having to open the mail app.

    How can I change the settings on my iPhone 5 so that I get new emails automatically? Without having to open the mail app.
    Thanks!

    No, they will all follow the default setting. If you want them all to fetch, for example every 15 minutes, then set it to 15 minutes in Fetch. I only mentioned the other if you wanted to leave one for manual. I have an account on my phone that is a POP account that I get mail at home from. I let my home computer get this mail, but when I am out of town, I pick it up with the iPhone. That one is set to manual.

  • I have downloaded 2 rented movies. I can find then in my downloads but can not find then in iTunes. I read the others that have had the same problem an I can't find the rented in iTunes

    Hey rangermikegsm,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re concerned because you don’t see your rentals in iTunes, but they appear to have downloaded. Take a look at the article below and check the Rentals tab in iTunes on your MacBook.
    About renting movies from the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    Find movies you rented previously
    Find your movie on the device you used to rent it.
    On a Mac or PC: Go to the Rentals tab in the Movies section of the iTunes Library.
    On an iOS device: Go to the Rental tab of the Videos app.
    Using Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation): Look in the top shelf of the main menu.
    Ciao,

  • Fix the problem.  What can I do without losing any pictures or videos?

    iPhoto opens, I can see pictures but cannot do anything.  It appears frozen.  Force quit and restart does not fix the problem.  What can I do without losing any pictures or videos?  I cannot check my version of iPhoto.

    I cannot check my version of iPhoto.
    It may be visible the Finder, when you select the IPhoto.app and use the command "File > Get Info".
    Is your profile signature still valid (iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.5)?)
    Do you have a backup of your iPhoto Library? If not, make a backup copy now.
    What happened directly before this problem first occurred? did you upgrade the system? Install new software? Move your iPhoto library to a new drive? Run any cleaning applications? Did iphoto crash?

  • I'm having some problems wiht Firefox, for example; Youtube isn't loading right, Facebook won't let me send messages, search up people, and this website i made wont load right also. I've re-installed and updated it but still the same problems. Any help?

    I'm having some problems wiht Firefox, for example; Youtube isn't loading right, Facebook won't let me send messages, search up people, and this website i made wont load right also. I've re-installed and updated it but still the same problems. Any help?

    Because I know enough to be dangerous...  I was trying to extend the two outside columns down....  Instead of just using faux columns which I have fixed since I posted the question.
    The other link problem is the left sidebar links.  When you go to the event photos page I have a repeat of the sidebar links that are on the newsletter page.  I used named anchors on the newsletter page to link to the particular article.  From the Event Photos page the links look like this:
    <a href="1112Visions_Iss1.html/#puzzle" target="_self">[Puzzle]</a>
    The problem I am having is that some of these go to the newsletter page and the anchor and some do not (I get an error message saying it  can't find the page).  To add to the problem is that when we choose say the President's Message, when it goes to the newsletter page and the correct anchor, the newsletter page is missing all the links to the graphics... the photos are missing the graphic for the faux columns is missing.  It makes no sense.  When I preview the newsletter page from Dreamweaver everything shows up fine.
    I do not know if all of this is being caused because I haven't posted this stuff to the site or what.  I've tried re-booting both the browser and Dreamweaver, dumping the cache and still the same nonsense.
    Got any ideas?

  • How can i change the settings on my iphone 3g, so that i can receive MMS messages instead of the stupid "media file bs..?"

    how can i change the settings on my iphone 3g, so that i can receive any picture from any contact?

    Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging > ON
    This also requires that you and the other parties have MMS messaging enabled in your cell plan.  Also, some carriers have restrictions as to the size of the file (picture) that can be sent/received.

    You just wrote you could hear the recording...
    You can take it into an Apple store and have it checked out.
