Alot has installed itself as my home page. How do I restore Firefox/Google as my home page? I have gone thru the suggested routines but unable to restore firefox/google.

I recently inadvertently downloaded firefox updates, which have now installed alot as my home page. I am now unable to regain firefox/google as my home page. This I am not happy with. How do I do I get back my firefox/google home page? I have gone thru the suggested routines to no avail! Any bright sparks out there with any suggestions?

  • I cannot install, I have taken all the suggested steps, but it still keeps saying error, I need this to help with a college project and I cannot afford to buy anything new. Is there anything I can do to install it properly?

    I have had Photoshop for several days now and for the few days I have tried I just can not install anything what-so-ever. I have taken all of the suggested steps and it didn't do anything to help, it still had some sort of error. I have contacted Adobe, but haven't heard anything.
    I really need this Photoshop for a project that needs to be completed before February. I do not have time or money to buy or exchange for new one.
    I really need help I just don't understand what is going wrong and I really need help!

    I think i know what the problem is here.  You have downloaded the Apple MAC version and trying to install on a Windows system.  If this is so then you will get this error message.
    Try to download the Windows version and then see if it works this time.  Windows and Apple MACS are two different types of operating systems.  Windows is widely used in the market place because of Microsoft's Marketing expertise while Apple MACs is used in the printing industry.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

    Hello:
    I would trot back into the Apple store and have them fix the problem (or call Applecare with a warranty issue).  There is no sense in you wasting your time trying to troubleshoot things on a new computer.

  • HT4363 I just purchased an Apple TV MD199LL/A, got it connected to my internet.  I can go to Youtube and watch videos.  I'm able to access Netflix.  All seems well except I cannot connect to my iTunes account.  I have gone through the list - home sharing

    I just purchased an Apple TV MD199LL/A, got it connected to my internet.  I can go to Youtube and watch videos.  I'm able to access Netflix.  All seems well except I cannot connect to my iTunes account.  I have gone through the list - home sharing is set correctly on both iTunes and my Apple TV.  The userid is correct on both. 
    Message "Loading prodrigu's library" and then "Could not connect to prodrigu's library".
    I had this same problem when I installed the REMOTE application on my ipad.  Everything on the list was affirmative, but had the same problem not being able to connect to my iTunes.
    What is missing?  Is there a firewall setting that could be causing this? 

    I don't mean to be facetious but sometimes the simplest things are overlooked.  To connect to your library you have to have the computer where the iTunes library is located running and with iTunes open.  It also needs to be on the same network.  My network is dual band and works with either stream but a friend of mine does not.  He has to set the computer and the Apple TV to the same band.  Hope this helps.

  • The wifi has been lost or disconnected on my iPad. It's the iPad 2 and has not been updated yet. It's IOS 6.1.3 .. how do I add a network back onto it? I have typed in the name and chosen each of the securities and still hasn't connected!

    Hey there Luba_kalstad,
    It sounds like you are unable to join your network and cannot see it in the Wi-Fi list in Settings. I would try the troubleshooting outlined in this article named:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
    Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your Wi-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
    Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
    Tap and Forget this Network.
    Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
    Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
    Update your device to the latest version of software.
    Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
    And this section down toward the bottom if needed:
    Unable to locate a Wi-Fi network
    Verify that the network is available by tapping Settings > Wi-Fi and choosing from the available networks.Note: It may take a few seconds for the Wi-Fi network name to appear.
    Move closer to your wireless router (access point) and attempt to locate the Wi-Fi network.
    If you do not see the network you would like to join, you may be attempting to connect to a hidden network. Learn how to join a hidden network.
    Supported Wi-Fi configurations vary by iOS device model. Find out which standards your device supports3.
    Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
    previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
    recently used Bluetooth accessories
    VPN and APN settings
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • In eBay & YouTube, I get the message to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player; I have gone through the download and installation procedure several times, but still get the same message - why can't I install the latest version on Firefox?

    In eBay, I was trying to upload pictures when I got this message: "You need the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to use the standard picture uploader.
    Download and install the latest version from Adobe before continuing."
    In YouTube, when trying to watch a video, I got this message: "You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video."
    I have gone through the procedure for downloading and installing the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, but still get the same messages when I reopen Firefox and revisit these sites.
    There does not seem to be the same problem with Safari, which runs the latest version of Adobe Flash Player with no trouble.
    I am using an iMac running Mac OS X Version 10.6.7.

    You can find the latest Flash player for Firefox on this page.
    *http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    For Firefox on 64 bit Windows, you need the 32 bit Flash version version because Firefox is a 32 bit application.

  • HT1296 I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the iPod directions on this page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the Autofill button. Can you help?

    I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the directions on the iPond help page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the autofill button. Can you help?

    I have already tried following those steps. I went back and tried to follow them again but they did not work. Some of my songs have synced, some have not. And I am still not seeing the Autofill icon on the bottom of the menu or anywhere else. I fear something has been corrupted here and I need to start afresh.

    Make that four.
    If you have any commercially advertised/available antivirus software installed on your Mac, completely uninstall this per the instructions on the AV developer's website.
    Antivirus software can slow down the normal operation of OS X and can negatively affect OS X performance and operation.
    Do you have apps like MacKeeper or any other maintenance apps like CleanMyMac 1 or 2, TuneUpMyMac or anything like these apps, installed on your Mac? These types of apps, while they appear to be helpful, can do too good a job of data "cleanup" causing the potential to do serious data corruption or data deletion and render a perfectly running OS completely dead and useless leaving you with a frozen, non-functional Mac.
    Plus, these type of apps aren't really necessary. They really aren't.
    There are manual methods to clear off unnecessary data off of your Mac that are safer and you have complete control over your Mac and not just leave a piece of auto cleaning software in charge of clearing off data off of your Mac.
    Their potential of causing OS X issues outweighs the implied good and benefits these types of hard drive or memory "cleaning" apps are written to do.
    Plus, the software companies that write these apps make it hard to easily uninstall these apps if something DOES go wrong and these apps work in a way where you have no recovery or revert function to return your Mac back to its former, working state in the event something does go wrong.
    It is best to never, EVER download and install these types of apps.
    The risk to your system and data is too great a risk!
    Search the web to learn how to correctly and properly uninstall these kinds of apps.
    They all uninstall differently.

    There is no logical expectation for Whatsapp to be listed under location services or for that to have any affect on what the app can access.

    make sure it's not being connected to by any of the other two
    one can only connect 1 device at the time and just by waking up sometimes a headset connects to a device
    automaticly
    then forget the bluetooth device in OS X and put the headset in pairing mode / discovery mode and connect with it once again with the mac
