My location bar autocompletes, replacing the already-typed text with the first few letters of the "switch to tab" URL; is there any way to change this?

If I have a mozilla.com window open and I try to type "mouse" to automatically search through my bookmarks and history for something on about mice, for example, the location bar changes the "mo" to "ht", due to the autocomplete replacing what I was typing with the URL of the mozilla.com tab, which starts with http://.
This is really annoying... since if I continue typing the word "mouse" it replaces it with "htuse". Which is useless to me, trying to search for mice.
Any way to fix this?

There is a way that you can do this, but it does mean abandoning CNAME forwarding that you have already set up and just using ordinary masked web forwarding. In this way you can go to the web forwarding section at your domain name registrar and forward your domain name to web.me.com/username/sitename. This will re-direct your site in the way that you want, but because it is masked web forwarding, just your domain name will show as the url for every single page, so you cannot bookmark single pages of a site, just the whole site.
If you use an iWeb blog and you mess around with moving the pages around in your iDisk, then you will loose MobileMe features such as the ability to post comments and also as you have already found, when you publish from within iWeb, it automatically publishes to the same place on your iDisk and not where you have moved your site to.
If I were you I would set up an individual blog with WordPress or Blogger or something similar - if you have an ordinary web host you can upload WordPress there and this then has the advantage of you being able to use your domain name followed by blog or whatever. It is a lot simpler than fiddling around with the iWeb blogging system - I have a blog on my own site and I use WordPress. My site was designed using iWeb and I just create a link from my site to my blog at WordPress - couldn't be simpler really.

Hi at the moment my ipod is on manual sync mode. Is there any way of changing this to auto-sync without losing the music on my ipod or library? Possibly more importantly is there a way I can transfer the ratings from my ipod onto my i-tunes?

This is so I can delete music from my ipod knowing its rated on my i-tunes so I can then see later if I want to re-add it based on its rating
Thanks

Thunderbird puts a new message at the end of the thread. Is there any way of changing this preference to listing new message at top of the thread?

Thunderbird puts a new message at the end of the thread.

This is is more logical. You need to see new message in thread directly, rather than scanning to end of thread to see what is there.

No it is not possible. The newest message is attached to the message it is in reply to.

I just bought a new Macbook Pro and loaded all my info from My old Macbook...now i can't remember for the life of me my Admin Password 9which i created 3 years ago)...is there ANY WAY to bypass this on my new Macbook Pro and begin again...?

I assume that you don't have the installation discs, so:
1. Reboot
2. Hold command + s key down after you hear the chime.
3. When you get a text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
(Type these commands very carefully)
mount -uw /
rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
shutdown -h now
4. You will go through the setup process again, create a new admin account, login to it and then change your existing account password or whatever else you need to do. You can delete the account you made in this process, or not.

HT204135 My printer always defaults to "Scale = 150%" and prints oversized. I always have to set the scale back to "100%". Is there any way to change this default setting?

Hi
My osX Lion loaded iMac always prints with a default "scale" of "150%" and consequently won't print anything on a single page. I always have to go into "Printer Settings" and change it to "100%" to print properly. Is there any way to set this up to default at "100%"?
Thanks!

Hi, just a note that might help. I notice in baltwo's screen shot of the print dialog, that the Preset titled "Plain paper, best" is selected.
anderdan33316, if you have selected a preset, and that preset was created with the "Scale" set to "150%". I suspect your issue is related to this.
for a possible solution,
1. in Safari, open the Print dialog (by cmd-p, or choosing "Print..." from the File menu, either way works).
2. in the dialog, manually set the Scale to 100%
3. in the "Presets:" pull-down menu, select "Save Current Settings as Preset..."
4. enter a label that is meaningful to you, such as "Standard", "Basic", "Default" - it can be modified later
5. print that page from that dialog, and the customized Preset will be one of your choices until you decide to delete it.
hope this helps,
Roy

Since the last FF update, the Tab is vanishing when I chose a tab. I there any possibility to change this behaviour back?

I use Firefox for android on my Tablet , the Asus tf700. Since the last update, I am now on 23.0, the tabs bar is always hiding as soon as I change the tab or touch the website, irrespective of screen orientation. Is there any configuration option to change this behaviour back?

I think such feature is being worked on.

HT201272 Some of my previous purchases aren't showing up on the iTunes store. It says "Purchased" but won't let me download them. Is there any way to fix this?

I've been making my iTunes music purchases on my iPhone for over a year now. I bought a new one so I relied on iCloud to keep my purchases on record. When downloading my songs, I saw that some of them were missing. When I logged into the iTunes store, it said that the albums (yes entire albums are missing) have been "PURCHASED", therefore I can't buy them again. And they don't have that iCloud icon on them to download them (since I have already purchased them). I checked my iTunes account on both my PC and my iPhone and still nothing. These aren't old purchases, but ones that I made a few months ago. Can anyone help me get my music back??

If they aren't showing in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app (and the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes) for redownloading then have you checked to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 ?

HT201209 My friend has sent me a code that doesn't work with a US based itunes account (says UK only). I'd love to hear the music he has bought for me. Is there any way to change this?

Please help me work out a way to redeem a voucher sent by my friend for some music -- saying it's only in UK based accounts that it's redeemable.

You cannot redeem codes from one country in another. Must be redeemed in the same country where it was purchased.

Hi, I'm tring to place a PNG into a Captivate 8 Project. I made the image on AI but when I place it in Captivate it gets blurred. Is there any way to solve this issue?

Hi, I'm tring to place an image (PNG) in to a Captivate 8 project. As soon as the PNG is placed, it gets blurred. Same thing happens when I try to resize it. In Publishing Settings, Project Size and Quality are set to high. Any idea of why I'm getting this?

PNG is bitmap, even though it is created in AI. This mean, please do not resize it but create it in AI in the size you want as vector image before saving to PNG. Another approach (my work flow) is to get it into Photoshop as a Smart object, and use the roundtripping with Photoshop that is possible in Captivate.

When changing "browser.newtab.url" is there any way to prevent the address bar from getting focus?

When I change "browser.newtab.url" to about:home and open a new tab, focus is set to the address bar not the search box on the firefox home page. The same thing happens if i change the url to google.com or another search engine. Is there any way to prevent this from happening.

Custom new Tab has a small bug if the start page is exactly the same as the new tab page. Then the focus of the start page is on the address bar. Just leave the "www." out in the startpage and use "www." in the new tab page then it works perfectly. e.g.
Startpage: google.com
new Tab page : www.google.com
Now the focus of the start page is on the search box.

So I need to buy a TV series on my family's account, and we want it just to charge the credit card and not the money from an iTunes Card that's already on the account. Is there any way to do this?

So I need to buy a TV series on my family's account, and we want it just to charge the credit card and not the money from an iTunes Card that's already on the account. Is there any way to do this?

I am pretty sure it will always use the credit card unless payment method is set to none.
That has been my experience anyway.
They already have the money from the gift card so would rather collect from your credit card.

Plugins usually are installed externally to Firefox. However, you can disable them in Firefox so that Firefox does not use them.
SearchReset is supposed to automate the task of resetting certain preferences, but you still can edit them manually if necessary.
'''''Address Bar Search'''''
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''keyword''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Right-click '''keyword.URL''' and choose Reset. This should restore Google as the default for address bar search.
Does that work?
'''''Search Box'''''
Usually it works to choose your preferred search engine from the drop-down. To remove an unwanted search engine plugin, usually the Manage Search Engines... choice at the bottom of the drop-down takes care of it.
Do either of those work?
There might be another way to hijack that search box; I think some of the other frequent responders probably are more familiar with it than I am.
