When I open a page from an email document it opens in Internet Explorer - how can I stop this?

Hi, I use Firefox as my default browser but when I opened a link from an official emailed adobe document it opened in Internet Explorer - I want to force all browser links to open only in Firefox - I have checked the advanced options and Firefox is set to my default, please help.

Hi PCM1, if i understand well the problem you have is when you click on a URL in a pdf file, the link opens in IE ? Have you checked in the default programs panel to see if all was well set ?

Did the iPod connect to this network before?
Try:

Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router

The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

When the wife gets a call or facetime request my phone also get it . how can i stop this ?

That is a new Continuity feature described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
You can turn it off by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off.
You may also want to consider using separate Apple IDs. That is more flexible now with new Family Sharing features: http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/

When I try to open an email, two (2) "Firefox Document(s)" try to download. How can I stop this?

I have Window7 64 bit and use Microsoft Outlook 2010 for email. Every time I open an email, two documents try to download. They are each called Firefox Document with very long "names"(?). An example is {86E67A0-2915-4CDA-8941-96A5C9A3FCF8}.hmtl.
I have to cancel one and then the other popup windows. Then the same thing happens for the next email I open but the "name" of the file is different. In addition to this being a pain in the butt, I'm now afraid to send any email for fear the receiver will get the same problem. I was thinking of doing a restore, but read that such an action by design does not change email. How can I send you a screen shot?

If this is not an intentional change by your email website, you might try the following. When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

Since updating to Version 5 EU1.1, Firefox does not open from Outlook email links despite having all program defaults - how can I fix this, please?

Clicking on a weblink in an Outlook email fails to open the website in Firefox even when the browser is already open. Firefox is set as default browser. There was no problem with this before the latest Firefox update a few days ago.
I have tried changing program defaults to Internet Explorer (email links worked) and then back again to Firefox, but email links still don't work.

When I click on the firefox icon it doesn't start unless I then try and open something else - at which point it starts after the other program -how can I stop this?

When I try and open firefox -either from the start menu or desktop shortcut -it doesn't open unless I open another program first. Eg I click firefox and then say 'word' and then 'word' will open followed by firefox- not only is it a bit irritating but also means I get distracted(!) as I usually chose solitaire because it opens quickly.
Doesn't happen with other programs ...
Wouldn't open at all today until a restart - before it would restart I got an error that said firefox wasn't responding - but possibly that isn't connected as computer wasn't shut down properly the day before.

This is because the regular central Nightly channel builds is only the desktop version. The version on Nightly development channel is at 21.0a1 now actually.
You need a build that has Metro support.
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-elm/
Many users state they cannot get Metro version to work on 32-bit Windows anyways.
There is this running thread at mozillaZine about the Metro builds. http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2304983

Every time i turn on my iMac my iTunes opens with a window asking me to sign in with my password , how can i stop this ?

Every time I turn on my Imac my itunes opens as I have set up to but a window pops up asking me to sign in with my itunes password , is there a way to stop this as it's quite annoying .
Many Thanks

Correction: this is for automatic logon of the iMac itself.
In SystemPreferences/Users&Groups login items tab:
remove the line
iTunes with the minus sign at the bottom.
then also iTunes Match if you have it.

Firefox keeps switching to newly opened tabs, although the option to do so is turned off. How can I stop this?

When I open a link in a new tab the browser's focus switches to the tab right beside the one in current use more often than it does the one just opened.
I would much prefer it to not switch to tabs automatically unless it is a blank tab being opened. The option "When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately" unchecked, yet it still switches to the tab right beside [adjacent] the current one, even if the newly opened tab is ten tabs away. It will stop for a while if I turn it on, save, then turn it back off, but returns after Firefox has been closed and reopened.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

I just did a update on my Iphone 5..now when i send a text message,it repeats back under my phone number..how can i stop this?

my texts are repeating back to me under my number,why?

There are multiple reasons why the update failed, unless you can provide an error message/code that came up then nodbody will know.
Now your iPhone is in recovery mode and will now need to be connected to a computer with iTunes and restored to factory settings. This will install the update at the same time.
If you have a back up of the iPhone before the issue occurred then after the restore to fqactory settings you can restore the back up to the iPhone. If there was no back up then I'm sorry your data is gone.

If he has iMessage on his iPad set to receive at his iPhone's phone number, that is exactly what is supposed to happen. There's nothiing you can do - he needs to remove his iPhone number from his "you can be reached at" iMessage settings on his iPad.

Under the older iOS, when you opened a blank Safari page, Bookmarks automatically opened. However, with the newer iOS, this does not happen anymore. What iPhone and version of iOS do you have?

You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that flush the tab?
Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior.
