Why is it every single time i download something, it disappears off of the download tool bar, and I have to manually search for it? And sometimes I still cant find it, even doing a detailed search.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Every since I have had it.

  • I just tried the 'group tabs' function but when I close a window and open a new one, the last page I viewed opens every single time. I can't remove or ignore the group tabs function and it automatically opens with it. How can I stop this?

    Before I attempted using the 'groups tab' function for the first time, there was no icon (unlike currently). There is now the icon with for the function yet I am unable to remove it or its function.

    Try a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder and desktop shortcut before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  • Every single time I move to another page, I get a pop-up. Yes, I have clicked on Tools and set browser to block ALL pop-ups. But Mozilla seems to be ingnoring.

    Suddenly, a month or so ago, every single time I open a new page, Mozilla opens a pop-up window. Yes, I have clicked on Tools, etc and set my settings to block ALL pop-ups. Yet, Mozilla has decided to circumvent this setting. If this situation is not handled within a week or two, I shall find and begin using another browser (not that anyone really cares).

    What does that pop-up show?
    Can you attach a screenshot?

  • EVERY SINGLE TIME: i purchase something and it i enter my password right? afterwards, stupid itunes keeps on popping the screen up again for me to enter my password. i would enter it over ten time and it would pop up again. i cant even access my account.

    ok, so i've been having this trouble for a long time. i purchase something on itunes right? it asks for my password right? i enter it, but the screen keeps on popping up again and again prompting me to enter my password. i enter it again, it dissapears and it pops up again a few seconds later. the purchase doesn't even go through and i can't even access my acount because of this... HELP PLZZ!!

    Hi, this is possibly a pain, as I experienced the same situation.  Hope you have better results.  It is fixable though....  You have keychain issues, of that I'm very sure, but the problem is fixing them.  For me, it took hours on the phone, with multiple Apple agents to fix.Sadly, they don't all have the same expertise.  Try to get your call elevated to a superior for best results and be persistent.
    Good luck.

  • HT1766 iphone4s won't turnon apple logo comes on but won't bootup its trying to download something but it keeps stop the download what i do ?

    Erica,
         I can, with 99.99% certainty, tell you that you are absolutely right in not wanting to download or install this "Helper," whatever it is (but we can be equally certain it would not "help" anything).
         I cannot comment as to Oglethorpe's recommendation of 'adwaremedic'; I am unfamiliar with it.  His links to the Apple discussion and support pages warrant your time and attention.
         It might be really simple -- Trying looking in your Downloads folder, trash anything that you don't know with certainty is something you want to keep, and then Secure Empty your Trash. Then remove the AdBlock extension, LastPass, and Web of Trust extensions to Safari and re-boot. If the issue goes away, still be extraordinarily careful in the future.
         Unfortunately, it's probably not going to be that simple to get rid of, in which case I'd then try the line by line editing in HT203987. 
         I have no further suggestions (other than a complete wipe and re-install...but that's a pain because trying to restore from Time Machine would simply ... restore the Mal).
       For the rest of us, please post when you find a solution.
         Best.
         BPW

  • HT4623 My iPhone will no longer connect to the internet or download my mail from iCloud.  The software is OS6 and I have plenty of storage space on the phone and iCloud.  I have checked all the obvious stuff in settings and can't resolve the issue.

    Since late September my emails stopped arriving on my iPhone.  Access to the internet via Safari now only ends in a message "Safari could not open the page because the server stopped responding"  I don't recall changing any settings and have checked the settings many times to try to figure out whats happening but without success. Ideas anyone?
    Thanks

    This may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your device that is preventing the backup from succeeding.  To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last iCloud backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on and try backing up again.
    If it still won't back up, you may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails.  Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

  • HT201177 Why does my iMac display keep shutting off. The rest of the computer keeps running and I have to unplug it for a while to get it to come back up.

    My 27" iMac's display goes to sleep after a few min, and you can still hear it running in the back ground. I can't hold the button on the back to shut it off. I have to unplug it for a while to get it to restart.

    Well, at less than one year old it is under warranty (and hopefully you have Apple care too).
    You should take it to your Apple Store and have it examined within the guarantee period.
    The problem, may not be that serious, but that is what a warranty is for.   It is also why you should take out the insurance of Apple Care.

  • Whenever i try to download something, after i hit 'save' Firefox says "not responding" and i have to log out of my desktop and then back in to do anything, why?

    it happens every time I try to download- it could be a song, or a word document. size does not seem to matter. When i relog in, something will be downloaded, but it will be like 300 bytes, nothing like the whole file.

    Have you tried leaving it to hang for 5 minutes?

  • Why is the google tool bar not compatable with 5.o? Will it be soon? If not can I unistall 5.0 until it is compatable. I need the googl tool bar and you guys just ruined my day with this upgrade!

    The Google toolbar is not compatible with 5.0. It has been compatible with every previous version up until now. I need to know if and when it will be compatible.

    I don't think anybody will tell you why. Only Google could possibly answer that.
    Firefox 4 is end of life, it is not supported.
    '''see''' https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/841081
    for how to use the Google Toolbar with FF5 with support from neither Google nor Mozilla.
    Unfortunately it has consequences of not being able to use Microsoft product email applications properly. As seen in a newsgroup without a reference a Google document. Which might explain why they are working on an Internet Explorer solution first.
    Or continue reading Q841081 for alternatives, or a Google supplied
    list of alternatives at the very bottom.

  • Every single time i get the most annyoing error message!!

    every single time i edit my code i ALWAYS get the error message:
    java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main
    Exception in thread "main"
    Process completed.
    even though i dont edit the public static void main(String[] args) {
    why is this?

    java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: mainThe problem is more likely to be in how you're executing the program than in the code itself.
    Post your code, and complete instructions on how you build and execute. Beware that this is a Java Language forum, not an IDE help forum, but some people know some stuff, and don't mind passing it on, so you might get lucky.
    If you get totally stuck my advise is to revert to compiling and building at the command line... which allows problems to be unambigiously communicated and therefore resolved "remotely".

  • My ipad resyncs all photos from scratch every single time!

    My ipad resyncs all photos from scratch every single time that I connect it to itunes. The same is happening with my iphone. It takes a long time to prep the photos and then copy them. Why is this happening? Before this happened, since I don't take that many photos often, it would just breeze through the sync with just any new apps. Now, it takes forever to do any sync with itunes since it goes through this lengthy process of preparing the pictures, then copying them, every single time.
    Any thoughts? Thanks!

  • Every single time I go to my Hotmail account(s), Foxfire will load the page and then freeze within a minute or two requiring a whole shutdown of my browswer. HELP!!!

    Over the past few months I have been having issues every time that I log onto my Hotmail account. My Foxfire has seemed to be "buggy" for the past three upgrades but now mostly everything is working well. When I log onto one of my Hotmail accounts, I can start to check it and within a minute or two, Foxfire will freeze and I have to Force Quit. To my knowledge, I'm not missing any PlugIns, I have not changed anything in my settings, yet it constantly freezes. I have to Force Quit Foxfire every single time I want to check my email. I really like FoxFire and don't want to go back to Safari - Help!

    <blockquote>
    I get an e-mail through gmail that notifies me that the days comics are available for me to read. I open the e-mail and immediately click on the link that takes me to the site and my page of comics. I shut down the e-mail and only have the site page open. Somewhere about halfway through the list, Firefox crashes. Usually it then gives me that "inform Firefox" notice, but it also just tells me that it has crashed and I have to restart Firefox from the desktop. Rarely, it will let me do a "restore" but, as I say, that is rare - I usually just have to restart Firefox and go back to my e-mail and start all over again. Also, when I am on the site, the icons for going forward or back on the individual comics is not showing, I have to guess which icon is under the pointer.
    I have not reset Firefox back to original, as I don't really want to do that, since I seem to always lose important information when I do that. I am using the most current version - 33.02. Even while typing this, FIrefox won't show that dash "-" mark, I just hope it's there.
    Also, my bookmarks save(exported) file is 12,924 KB in size, which seems rather large to me. And I do have a large amount of sites saved, so...
    Any ideas/help?
    Thanks!

  • Why am I getting an "error" every single time I send a message?

    I keep getting an error while I'm composing mail to be sent. It says "ERROR The message could not be saved." It actually happens every single time I write a e-mail.
    What does this mean, and why am I getting it?
    Thanks!

    Some base info is needed to give a guesstimate for an answer ... such as computer system & program info ... specifics on each of course. Including versions including dot-numbers of each program, and what the error message says.

  • How can I download multiple apps without entering my Apple ID every single time?

    How can I download multiple songs or apps without entering my Apple ID every single time?

    It took me a moment to remember where this was!
    1. Open the iTunes app on your Mac and Sign out of your account (Store menu.)
    2. Without signing back in go to the iTunes App Store and buy a free app that you already have*.
    3. A dialog box will pop up for you to sign into your account. When signing in, be sure to tick the box that says Remember password.
    * You can choose any app that you wish, choosing one that you already have keeps you from buying any old app that you may not want.
