When I try to set up a link to AOL on the desk top, I get a link to Chrome, which I deleted from my computer. How do I get a link to Firefox?

When I drag the symbol from the URL line to the desktop to set up a link, I get a google chrome icon instead of a firefox icon. I removed chrome from the computer, but I still get a chrome icon which links does not work. How do I get the reference to chrome out of firefox?

Tried again about 30 minutes later, and now I get firefox links. Don't know what changed, but seems to be OK.

  • My husband has an iPad and I just got one for me.  We both have the same e-mail address.  The message I get when I try to set my new one up is that the Apple ID is already in use.  How do I set up with our shared e-mail account

    My husband has an iPad and I just got one for me.  We both have the same e-mail address.  The message I get when I try to initiate setup is that the Apple ID is already in use.  Any ideas on how to complete the setup of the new iPad since we both share the e-mail account?

    If you selected open a new Apple ID account, go back a step and enter use existing Apple ID.
    You will have to set up a separate iCloud account or your iPads will mirror each other.

  • New MBPr when viewing safari in full screen mode it keeps switching to the desk top screen like I initiated a gesture

    Everytime I am using safari in full screen mode my MBPr always switches back to desk top view within a matter of seconds.  I can be typing a website or entering data in to a form and it still switches back.  This has become very annoying.  I have reinstalled the software, restored from time machinw, and even reset safri but it will not stop

    Delete the localstore.rdf file at the following location:
    C:\Users\'''USERNAME'''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\'''PROFILE NAME'''
    I did this and it fixed it for several days, but it broke again eventually.

  • When I try to open up a linked pdf, Firefox keeps asking me where I want to save it!!

    Firefox never used to do this. It does it with our Intranet site and on other external sites. I don't want to save the pdf. This is very infuriating and if it is not resolved I will change to another default browser.
    Also a recent Firefox update to v 23 causes our Intranet https site to be blocked. We have to select allow. Everytime we go to another page the same thing happens. It is hopeless and totally unworkable. How do I get back to v 22?

    In order to change the default reader for PDF files (allow Firefox to open the PDF instead of saving locally), follow these steps:
    #Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
    #In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
    #In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
    #On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
    Please report back soon.

    My IPad crashes every time I use an application. It keeps crashing to the desk top where all the other apps are at. It doesn't matter what application I'm in either. How can this be fixed?

    Hey Hlrj09,
    I'd check out this article and follow the troubleshooting steps within:
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
    Even though it is geared towards applications purchased from the App Store and you're experiencing the issue with all apps, most of the steps would still be applicable to your situation. I would also take a look at the troubleshooting assistant to see if that helps:

    Hope that helps,

  • Since downloading iOS 6 for my 4s iPhone when I delete a message on my phone it's deleted from my computer how do I stop this?  Help!  Thanks

    Help me solve this please?
    I do not want the messages I delete on my iPhone to automatically delete from my account overall.
    Cheers!

    Contact the email provider.  That sounds like normal behavior for most IMAP email accounts.

    You can try going to Mail>the accounts>Advanced and turn Use SSL on or off, the opposite of what it is now.

  • When I try to set my homepage to a specific website, firefox will not store permanently. I have to reset home page each time I open firefox. are there additional instructions in help to address this?

    Each time I open firefox, it doesn't open to my previously set website (Yahoo). I have to reset the homepage each time I open firefox despite following the help menu method. I'm not able to locate a possible cause/solution on the help menu. pls advise

    Please do the following.<br><br>
    * In the location bar, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter.<br><br>
    * In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''<br><br>
    * Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=<br><br>
    The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "''Copy Link Location''" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
    '''To reset your home page, do the following'''.<br><br>
    * Go to the site you want to set as your homepage.<br><br>
    * Click the orange Firefox button and go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.<br><br>
    * Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.<br><br>
    * Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.<br><br>
    After you complete the above steps, install this add-on to prevent another search engine from modifying your preferences: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/browserprotect/

  • When I try to connect to a link I receive the message "Search bookmarks and history" and FF won't connect to the link requested

    When I try to connect to a link I receive the message "Search bookmarks and history" and FF won't connect to the link requested. VER FF 3.6.6. Windows7; 64 bit.

    I have currently FF 3.6.8 running under Windows XP 32 bit. I am using Multiproxy Switch ver 1.33 add-on to switch between multiple proxies.
    My FF starting page is http://www.google.com/ncr . When I start Firefox and the actually configured proxy is unreachable, I get the usual message that the page cannot be opened ("Try again"). Then I switch to another proxy or to direct connection. Normally the desired page (google) opens. But in case I switch the proxy before the error message appears, this grayed message "Search Bookmarks and History" appears instead of the URL in the URL input field and I have to retype the URL.
    Remark: I would really like to have this function "Searching Bookmarks and History" available in Firefox, because I often do this kind of search and need 4 clicks to get there (Bookmarks-Organize Bookmarks-Bookmarks Menu-and then input my search criteria).

  • I have just restored my iPad. When I try to set it up, it tells me that my configuration can not be downloaded. Never seen this before. Any ideas?

    Hello Abdo_Zain,
    I would be concerned too if I was not able to gain access to my iPad.  If you are unsure what your Apple ID is, you can find the steps in this article:
    Apple ID: How to find your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625
    You can reset a forgotten Apple ID password by going to the following link:
    Apple - iForgot
    https://iforgot.apple.com
    Also, you may be able to skip the step of entering your Apple ID if you are setting up the iPad for the first time.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Sheila M.

  • Why does it say I have an invalid email when I try to set up sync?

    I have an ipod touch. I downloaded the firefox home app onto the device.
    I then tried to sync my home computer.
    When I try to set up a firefox home account I go to "tools", enter "set up a sync " and then enter "create a new account". A window comes up that "email address". As soon as I start to enter my email an "x" shows up followed by "this is an invalid email". What's up?

    Just keep typing until you have entered the entire email address.
