A web site that I use daily has disappeard from my "Most Visited" list. In spite of my continued use of the site plus deletion of other sites that I seldom use, thus making room on the list for the site I want to be listed there, it doesn't.

A bookmarked web site for weather that I use daily - often more than once a day - has disappeared from my Most Visited list. In spite of my continued use of the site for a week now, plus deleting other sites that I seldom use that have started showing up on the Most Visited list, thus making room on the list for the weather site, it still doesn't reappear there. I have to open Bookmarks to access the weather site. So the site is still there, but not on the Most Visited list. I tried removing and re-entering the site in Bookmarks, but that didn't solve the Most Visited list problem. Thanks for your help.

Your browser has been hijacked. You can test it by going to any search site besides scroogle and looking up antivirus, malware removal, or any other term like that. It will show you the results but you wont be able to go to any of those pages. In my opinion this is the worst kind of virus because it is so hard to get rid of. You'll remove it and it will self replicate and you'll have it again. Scroogle works because it acts as a proxy between you and the search site google. Follow that guys directions who replied before me. When that doesn't work try to get a copy of Stopzilla antivirus. I had my browser hijacked once and that got rid of it. If that doesnt work, download the Comodo web browser. They give away a month of free Geekbuddy assistance with their browser. Use it. Chances are you will have to contact an IT proffesional of some sort anyway. But you'll never feel really clean again and you'll become paranoid about using the web and you'll get every popup blocker and java script stopper there is. But that still won't be enough and you'll dump windows altogether becuase there just are'nt that many viruses that work on Linux.... oh wait.. that was me...

I use Firefox 'Most Visited' for easy access to the websites I use every day. I inadvertently clicked 'Forget About This Site' on a page that I need. That page is gone, apparently permanently, from my 'Most Visted' list. How can I get it back?

I use Firefox 'Most Visited' to access websites I use many times every day. I inadvertently clicked 'Forget About This Site' on a page listing that I need. That page is gone, apparently permanently, from my 'Most Visited' list. No matter how many times I re-visit the page, it will not show up on 'Most Visited'. How can I get it back? Thanks!

Most Visited is an automatically generated list that shows sites that you've visited.<br />
If you delete the history of a site then you have with a visit count of zero.<br />
To make that site reappear in that you you will have to visit that site often enough to make the visit count match the other sites in that list or clear the history from other sites in that list.
You can make the Visit Count column visible in the History Manager to see how many times you've visit sites.

I would select a link from the drop down on the address bar but the page would not open. I would select it again but the page does not open. I could only reach website by selecting google on most visited list.

After updating AVG anti-virus, I encountered a problem on Firefox. I would select a link from the drop down on the address bar but the page would not open after clicking on it. I would select it again, even double click, but the page does not open. I could only reach website by selecting google or yahoo from my dropdown on the most visited list and then click the website that I want to visit. I would like to do this in one step by just selecting a link from my history on the address bar and select a link instead of going to google and then writing the page I want to visit. What could be the problem? When going to the address bar to select a link to open, why does the site not open? Any help would be appreciated.

The app is not gone, it is impossible to remove it from the device.
Check all home screens and folders.
If you are unable to find it, Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.
As a last resort, restore from backup.

When adding a web site I want keychain access to manage, it truncates the URL I paste in. Is there a fix for this?

when adding a web site, userid, and password via keychain access
the 'where' field which is where you put the URL, is getting truncated after being pasted
any fix available?

You can try to use "Forget About This Site" in the History (right-click context menu in Library or sidebar) to remove all data from a website including possible exceptions.

My Most Visited List is empty and remains so, no matter how often I visit the same websites

This has only happened since I updated to Firefox 4.0. I go to the same sites repeatedly, and so far none of them show up in the Most Visited dropdown list.

if you have the bottom one checkmarked i.e. "Clear history when Firefox closes" then that's why there's no history to display.

ITunes has disappeared from my phoneI did not uninstall, but it's gone along with the icon. HELP

ITunes is gone from my iPhone, icon and all. I've tried going to the site to download again but it won't download.

It's a built-in app so it can't be deleted (and therefore can't be redownloaded), but it might be hidden. If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (pull down the centre of the home screen in iOS 7), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > iTunes being set 'off' ?
If not then have you tried a soft-reset to see if you can find it after the phone has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

My "most visited" list disappeared. How do I get it back?

The list of my most visited sites disappeared. I used to be able to go to my business site and my bank with just one click, I 'd like to be able to do that again.

This link shows how to restore it - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Restore+the+default+Smart+Bookmarks+Folders

HT5661 I restored my phone now its asking for the original apple id that was used to set up phone. myself and the previous owner want to nknow is there a was to get it or can apple delete it.

Can not find original apple id to restore my iphone 4s help.

If you know the apple id login it's possible for you to be able to reset the password to this apple id by going to:
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
This will give you the opportunity to reset your password that is once again if you know the name of the apple id.
There will be significant identify verification required.
Good luck.

How do I add a site back to the most visited list after clicking on forget it?

I clicked on forget it for a site but Firefox also deleted a related link on the same site.

Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make a note of those passwords and bookmarks.
You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.
Firefox keeps JSON backups of the bookmarks in the bookmarkbackups folder, one each day that Firefox has been started up to a maximum of 10.
*Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Restore > Choose File
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox
Restoring a JSON backup will replace all existing bookmarks, so you lose bookmarks that were created at a time after this backup has been created.
Note that the xx part in the file name of the JSON backup (bookmarks-####-##-##_xx.json) shows the number of bookmarks stored in the backup.

Firefox on iMac keeps defaulting to mobile version of web sites - i want the full desktop version of web site - how do i set this up?

Question says it all - i've gone all through settings and can find nothing that looks like it will allow a choice

hey,
Type '''about:config''' in address bar and hit enter.
A page will open which has a search box at top, in that box type '''network.http.accept.default''' and when that option appears below '''Right click on it and choose the option reset'''.
If this doesn't solve your problem you can additional view the link below or get back to us.

Hope it helps.

Today I clicked on a web site and the site appears in a separate behind the regular firefox browser. the "front" page goes the web site I want to go to, but the page "behind" will not go away. I can see the page behind on the far left hand side.

I provided enough information above.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

My ipod touch keeps turning the volume down by its self and when i try to turn it back up it wont let me also when the sound is off the speaker that comes up when you turn it on down on the screen wont go it just stays there it doesn't go!Any ideas why?

Thankyouuu
it looks like that when it is locked and when its unlocked it looks like this

Have you checked the volume button? It might be physically stuck. To determine whether a hardware repair is needed, you need to follow these steps:
1. Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
After that: test the device to see whether the issue is solved.
2. If the issue is not solved, you should backup the device and restore it as new.
In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup.
If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
Good luck
