Blocks my email refresh, redirects me to 'log in' constantly on other sites I use all day for work,

Firefox won't allow my email to refresh (I have to click 'allow' every time). Also, I use my Webster's dictionary online account every 5-15 minutes for work, and Firefox now redirects me to 'log in' every third or fouth use (neither of these things ever happen with IE8). I'm new to Firefox and wonder how to designate sites as 'safe' (or whatever) so this doesn't happen (using XP on PC with 29). Thanks.

See:
*Firefox > Options/Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

  • Is anyone else having email problems such as apps exiting in the middle of an email? It may be a wireless issue. I use First Class for work and yahoo email for personal. I will be in the middle of typing a long email and the app just quits, all data lost.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • Having trouble removing a student email account from the Windows Mail App because the school has started using office 365 for thier email which i dont have access to

    I was wondering if anybody has any ideas on how to remove a gmail account that was set up by a community college for use on their mail servers and then find out that after awhile they have locked you out because they have started using office 365 for their
    emails and you are left with a student email account that you have no idea how to delete because you have missied out on deleting it before they changed to a different email provider?
    Anybody with ideas please help because I don't know what to do

    Hi,
    Regarding to Windows Mail App, do you mean the Modern UI App in Windows 8.1? Do you mean that you want to remove the email account from Mial App? Generally, we can simply remove the account by the "Account" option in Mail App (Open Mail App, move
    the mouse the right chram bar, click Account, then click the mail account\Remove account), but if the email acocunt is tied with the Microsoft Account which is used on the pc, in that case, it is unavailable to remove the email account, you need to contact
    your college to disconnect the Microsoft Account.
    If I'm misunderstanding something, please free correct me.

  • Why does it take all day for my msn email to download on my iphone5?

    IiOS 7.1.1 iPhone 5
    Lately, for the past month or so my MSN email takes up to a day to download new messages. It will check for new mail the say downloading and there it will stay all day. Sometimes I power it off and the mail populates but often it doesn't.  Any ideas why this is happening or is there something I can do to fix it?.

    It's true that it is your Internet connection that is the problem but:

    -Use a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi; Wi-Fi slows it down a lot!
    Just no. Your WiFi is far faster then your Internet speed so the bottleneck is in your Internet speed, not your WiFi speed. The only way WiFi would be slower is if you are using an old A or B standard AND you have a really fast Internet speed. However if you are using G or N on your WiFi it will be faster than a good Internet connection. If your Internet is faster than your WiFi then it is fast enough not to have any streaming/download problems.
    -Buy a stronger modem
    Again no. There is no such thing as a "stronger modem".

    -Get a faster connection such as ADSL2, T1, Fibre Optics etc. from your carrier (such as AT&T)
    Almost right. While a ADSL2, T1, Fibre Optics etc would give you a faster connection it is way overkill and a far greater expense. Just ask your ISP for a faster DSL/Cable connection. You are probably below a 3meg connection. You will want a 3meg or greater connection. And that will make your stuff download faster. The Apple TV likes a 3meg or greater connection.

  • All of a sudden I can't forward my emails because when I go to choose the people to send them too the window won't pop up. The same thing for any other site that uses a pop up window. What do I do?

    It happened all of a sudden, any site that requires a new window to open to sign up for something or to choose something it just won't do it. I can't forward any emails because in order to choose the people I'm sending the email to, a new small window with my address book pops up and Mozilla won't let it happen. How can I change this back to the way it was?

    Mike,
    Are any of your other applications going wonky, or is it just Logic?
    I'm afraid I've never heard of this particular problem before, but if it were happening to me the first thing I would do is delete my "com.apple.logic.express.plist" file in Library>Preferences, then repair permissions in Disc Utility, and finally restart my computer.  Then I would launch Logic and see if the problem has been corrected.  It's amazing how much these two steps can accomplish.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue I would launch Logic and go to Preferences>Audio Units Manager to see if all my plug-ins are properly validated.

  • I keep getting an error message and redirected to yahoo, despite having been in the site briefly using my default browser. any ideas?

    Google is my default browser. I type in a search, click on the link, and go to the site, Sometimes I get re-directed immediately and other times I am able to navigate for a few seconds before being re-directed. I've tried changing the settings in the "about.config" area to make sure that Google does not appear anywhere. I've removed Yahoo from my applications (since doing that Bing now comes up anytime I open more than one browser window). I've looked for malware from Spigot and I can't find You Tube Downloader. In short, I've followed every suggestion that I can find. It hasn't fixed the problem, and has created a new one with Bing. Any other ideas??

    It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware.
    Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is
    and what it does. Also, check the programs that are on your computer
    '''Windows:''' Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.
    '''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder
    '''Linux:'''
    * [http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/see_all_your_installed_applications_ubuntu_unity Ubuntu Unity]''' {web link}
    * Xfce: Applications Menu category sections
    * options depends on the package manager and the desktop environment
    Go thru the list. If you find something that you don't
    know what it is, use a web search.

  • This morning I changed my Apple ID to my new email address.  I thought it meant that I could then use all my alias icloud email addresses with my new Apple ID because it would be the same account.  Why am I now not getting email to those addresses.

    This morning I changed my Apple ID to my new email address.  I thought it meant that I could continue to use all my alias icloud email addresses with my new Apple ID because it would be the same account.  Since then I have not received and new emails to my iCloud email addresses.  Normally I get at least  7 new emails a day, so I'm pretty sure my iCloud addresses are not working.  It would be a lot of work for me to notify a lot of people, companies, and organizations about new email addresses, so I really would like to make them work.  Will it be possible to make them work with my new Apple ID?

    Roger, I didn't know that "Delete Account" was synonymous with "log out".  Yes, I had deleted my iCloud account in my iPad email settings more than once yesterday and again one more time after I read your reply.  I then followed the instructions below to log off on my Windows PC.  I found these when I searched for how to log off of iCould:
    1- Go to www.iCloud.com
    2- Sign in with your current login info
    3- Click on your user name on top right corner
    4- Select account setting
    5- Select "Advanced."
    6- Click 2nd option, "Sign Out Of All Browsers."
    I also scanned settings for all the other apps on my iPad and changed a couple that still had my old sbcglobal email address. Later, I noticed that I was able to see my old previous iCloud emails in iCloud.com, and the couple of messages that I received from this Support Community site, but still no new emails.  Suddenly the emails started rolling in again this morning.  I have 7 new ones at the moment.  I sort of expected to get a backlog of emails from yesterday, but something tells me those were all lost as "undeliverable".  I don't know who or exactly what did the trick, but the issue seems to be fixed.  I'm using my new Apple ID, and I'm glad I don't have to get all new iCloud alias email addresses after all.

  • I have unchecked clear active logins and everything to do with removing passwords and I still have to login to websites. How do I get this to keep me logged in on a few sites?

    With Yahoo and Facebook, they have a box you can check to keep you logged in, but every time I close out my browser it is erased and I have to login all over again. I unchecked everything that has to do with erasing saved passwords, and active login information but it is still doing it. How do I get the browser to keep me logged in on the different websites that I would like it to remember?

    Websites remembering you and automatically log you in is stored in a cookie.
    Create an allow cookie exception (Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: Exceptions) to keep such a cookie, especially for secure websites and if cookies expire when Firefox is closed.<br />
    In [[Private Browsing]] mode all cookies are session cookies that expire if that session is ended, so websites won't remember you.
    Do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences"
    Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.

  • How do I get icons for my yahoo email, Face Book, You Tube, and other sites that I use a lot?

    In the past I had icons on my toolbar for my Yahoo email, You Tube, Face Book, and a lot of other sites that I use a lot, but I can't find where to get them to add to my firefox tool bar.
    Also I have a lot of plug ins that I'm not sure I need, is there any way you can tell me what I need or don't need to keep?

    I disabled acceleration in the flash player by linking to http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Troubleshooting and scrolling to the line that specifically outlined my problem - split horizontal screen with green line - clicked on the flash link then right clicked the flash icon and ticked disable acceleration.
    I also uninstalled and reinstalled more programs then I probably need to.

  • Java script problems preventing log in to certain web sites

    Java problems preventing log-in to certain web sites when using Safari or Chrome browsers

    I am unable to log into certain websites uaing Safari, Google Chrome and FIrefox.
    Safari just gives me a red exclamation mark.
    Google Chrome does the same thing.
    Firefox at least gives me this error message:
    "Your browser does not have the Sun Java system component installed or it is incorrectly installed. In order to run the platform, please download and install the latest version by clicking  here."
    So i click on the link and it takes me here:
    http://www.java.com/en/
    which is a download site for the latest version of Java. When i click on the download button i get taken to this website:
    http://www.java.com/en/download/apple_manual.jsp?locale=en
    which basically says that "Apple supplies their own version of Java". There is a link to the Apple store and instructions on how to get the latest software updates for your operating system (mine is OS X 10.6.8 - Snow Leopard).
    I have the latest version of all updates, there is nothing for me to update!!
    So i search the Apple store support area for the latest version of Java and download that (Java For Mac OS X 10.6 Update 8). Turns out i already have this version on my Mac. Still doesnt work!!!
    Am not impressed. I read somewhere that Apple is always behind in its Java updates and if a website you are trying to access has a later version, well, to bad for you. If that is the case that is very poor form for a company with record Billion dollar profits. This experience has put me off purchasing further Macs.

  • Blocking certain emails

    I get junk mail all the time and i was wondering if i could block specific email addresses (mac os 10.4.3)

    Since spammers don't provide a valid sending or return email address and are constantly changing the bogus email address used (much of the same junk that appears to be sent by a different email address are being sent by the same person and computer), this is waste of time and can't be done with any email client anyway.
    This can only be done at the incoming mail server level by your ISP or email account provider.
    Do you automatically render all HTML received and/or do you provide this email address when making online purchases, for any website access if required or for any other "public" purpose?
    Regarding automatically rendering all HTML received, your email address can be logged as a "known good" address by a spammer if the spammer includes any embedded images or objects with HTML that must be rendered from a remote server. If the Mail.app junk filter automatically marks a message as junk, any embedded images or objects will not be rendered when the message is opened but if a junk message is not automatically marked as junk and contains embedded images or objects and it is opened, you can be revealing that your email address is valid to the spammer causing you to receive even more spam. Spammers also sell/trade their lists of "known good" email addresses so it becomes an endless cycle.
    Does your ISP or email account provider include a method to forward any spam received to them with long headers shown for the received message? If so, your ISP or email account provider can then determine the computer IP address where the messages originated and block that IP address from being able to send messages to any email address in your ISP's or email account provider's domain.
    If you are providing this email address for any online purchases, website access or for any other public purpose where this email address can be harvested by spammers, you need to have a private and public email address. Use the private email address to exchange email with family and friends ONLY. Get a free Hotmail or Yahoo account/address with webmail access only to be used for public purposes.
    Once the cat is out of the bag, it is too late so this may require cancelling this email address and getting a new "private" address along with not automatically rendering all HTML received.

    -> Tap '''ALT''' key or press '''F10''' to show the Menu Bar

    4a) Accept Third-party Cookies -> under "Keep Until" select "They Expire"
    -> REMOVE CHECKMARK from CLEAR HISTORY WHEN FIREFOX CLOSES
    -> When using the Location Bar, suggest: select "History and Bookmarks"
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Security -> place Checkmarks on:
    1) Warn me when sites try to install add-ons 2) Block reported attack sites 3) Block reported web forgeries 4) Remember Passwords for sites
    -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Offline Storage (Cache): click '''Clear Now''' button
    -> Click OK on Options window
    -> click the Favicon on SearchBar -> click "Manage Search Engines" -> select all Unwanted Search Engines and click Remove -> click OK

  • When I try to open some web sites i am blocked by MOZILLA and redirected to a site I did not want and am unable to close or go back without going back to the home page. Help help help

    I have removed the check from the pop up blocked in the MOZILLA options but still get this problem of not being able to open certain sites. The MOZILLA icon appears with the three options available, but before i can click on one I am automatically redirected to a site I did not want, and when I try to go back it will keep coming back to the site MOZILLA put on the computer. I have to close and go back to the home page and start all over again. I have installed a new virus protection system STOPZILLA and could this have any bearing on the problem. After awhile it becomes very frustrating trying to get on line information and being continually redirected. Any ideas?

    That email address is still a valid Apple ID. If you do not remember the passcode, sign onto Manage your Apple ID (Apple - My Apple ID) with that email address, and then click on Reset Password.
