Mac user, OSX 10.9.4. CS6, in the new Blur gallery the pin with adjusters does not appear for any of the three blur filters. This may have occurred since taking adobe watermark add-on and updating Bridge. any ideas?

Mac user, OSX 10.9.4. CS6, in the new Blur gallery the pin with adjusters does not appear for any of the three blur filters. This may have occurred since taking adobe watermark add-on and updating Bridge. any ideas?

I am using Mac OSX 10.10.1 (memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, graphics Nvidia GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB)
and my version of Photoshop is CC.
I ran into the same problem: I am able to place and view Blur Gallery pins but the adjustment wheel or outer control arounf the pin that allows you to tweak the blur value disappeared after being initially available. Additionally, the placed pin or pins appear to flicker on screen (while in blur gallery mode) until committing the change with the OK button. I have tried restarting both the computer and Photoshop, as well as what some other users have suggested such as View>Show>Edit pins turned on. Nothing has helped so far. I am still able to adjust the blur amount from the Blur Tools slider. thank you.

Firefox won't open new tab, have to open new window for any link.

New tab won't open both when attempting to do it by clicking on "cross" in the tabbar or from File >> new tab.
Thanks

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

My "new tab" button quit working even if I right click on it. Any ideas?

Even if I click on it it will look as if it has been depressed and that is it, nothing happens.

Click Tools | Add-ons | Extensions and remove both of these: 
* Ask Toolbar 
* SearchToolbar/1.2 
Both of these prevent you from opening new tabs.
Please also visit the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update where necessary. Your Flash installation in particular is way out of date and exposes your system to attacks.

Reset the SMC and PRAM. If it doesn't work, boot in safe mode -Mayús button during boot- and do your normal activity

All of a sudden don't have sound on my phone, music, apps, games, notifications. Don't even have the volume bar on videos to turn it up or down, when I press the manual volume button on the side to turn it up nothing happens. Somebody help me fix this

Somebody please help me fix this issue!!!

Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if better. If still problem, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare coverage, make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean charging port again with small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

TS1587 my machine starts , gets half way through boot up, and then crashes, any ideas?

my imac turns on, gets half way through booting up, then just stops.
any clues?

So, as per > Intel-based iMac: What to do if your computer won't turn on you have reset the SMC and Reseated your RAM...?
If so, then perhaps you need to replace the RAM with new modules.
To find out for sure, run the Apple Hardware Test as per > Using Apple Hardware Test

New tab will not open web page

*error message when opening firefox= "Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features."
*new tabs do not open web pages
*plugin container.exe and updater.exe do not open or run

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.org/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, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
See:

Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

From what I can see, unless you're doing things with old versions of Xcode on a Mac (in which case, the solution seems to be to upgrade to the latest version), this seems to e an iTunes issue.
Accepting that it works fine with another iPad, I suggest trying the following:
1. Restart the non-working iPad
2. If that doesn't work, reinstall iTunes. If you're on a Windows PC, I suggest using Control Panel to uninstall all the Apple apps, restarting the PC, and doing a fresh install. If you're using a Mac, a repair permissions might help too.
iTunes 10.3 is now available, and that may make a difference.

HT1657 Everytime I try to downlaod a movie I have rented using the option Check for Rentals, nothing happens. Any ideas?

So I rented a movie using iTunes and my AppleTV device. I chose the option Rent and Watch later. I have been charged the rental fee. Yet, whenever I try and download the movie, I choose it on iTunes/Appe TV and am told that I have already rented it and I need to check the download status, via Settings, iTunes account, Check for Downloads.
Everytime I get to the Check for Downloads option, the system gets stuck. The cursor device simply spirals and spirals and spirals.
Any ideas as to what to do?
Best,
Benedict

Same error message, I disabled tab mix and made sure I only have the newest version of Java, restarted firefox, now it seems to be fine no error yet on Pogo games or pictures upload to ebay which were the biggest problems besides hanging. I had also had disabled AVG secure search yesterday but that did not solve the issue. Now I will try to add back in AVG search...I have very few adds ons, also the note embedded about re- installing a toolbar went away, my old one did not work with FF4, so I installed Yahoo toolbar but the message still did not go away until I applied this fix. Hopes this helps someone..

All of a sudden I can no longer open tabs by clicking "+" or right clicking on the tool bar. To open a new page, I have to open a whole newFirefox window. How can I fix this?

Also, Firefox crashes frequently. Is there a fix for this also?

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox 3.6 that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
For the second issue, the [[Firefox crashes]] support article may help.

I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, my settings have been changed, my homepage, and EVERYTHING. No matter how many times I go in and change them again, the SAME pages open up when I start FireFox and I am constantly being asked if I want Yahoo as my start page and default search engine. I click the box 'do not ask me again' and it comes up EVERY TIME. I change things like I don't want history remembered, and when I reload FireFox again, it's back to the way it was BEFORE. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I don't know why this is happening, or how to fix it. What do I do??

I do not want to download another virus program.. I do not believe it is a virus. I am running the full version of Norton 360 and it is doing a daily scan. I have Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
This is very irritating !! If I wanted Yahoo I would ask for it !

All of a sudden I can no longer open a new tab using either the icon on the tab bar, the keyboard short cut or the File menu option. I can open a new tab ONLY by clicking on a bookmark or link.

This issue can be caused by the Ask.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)
Your system details show that toolbar in the user agent as AskTbAD2/3.12.2.16749
