Browser defaults to Explorer always and only I click on hypertext!! Why?
Firefox is, without doubt, my default browser. Whenever, and without fail, I click an URL (hypertext) that I have received via e-mail, it opens in Windows Explorer! In order to have it open in FF I have to paste it in.
Can you tell me how to fix this/destroy Explorer?
Thanks very much.
Try to redo the default browser and make another browser like IE the default browser and then let Firefox do it again.<br />

I downloaded a series and only 4 episodes will show why can't I watch the others even though I purchased the entire series. It won't let me watch and every time is select the little cloud it tells me that it is downloading but nothing happens. I have tried to sync it on my PC but I could only get the first couple of episodes.
Hi Kousies!
It sounds like you may need to report this issue with your purchases:

when I set my network airport to lock, it doesn't stay locked and neighboring families networks popup on my screen, and the lock clicks open. Why doesn't it stay in the locked position? JOHNPEG
Open the Security pane of System Preferences and set it to require a password to unlock each secure pane. This is designed to stop people using the computer from changing the settings and won't do anything if an issue on the computer itself causes the change.

MBP not turning on and only right clicking?
Hello all!
I own a MBP purchased in November 2009. Yesterday after it had been closed for maybe an hour after use it would only right click when I used the trackpad. No matter where I clicked, and later we plugged in a mouse and it would still only right click. I then decided to re-start the computer as most problems I have are fixed when I restart. After it was turned off it would not turn back on, the battery was quite low. I took it to my friend and she got it to turn on (I guess after we pressed the power button enough times it just worked) once it was on we tried clicking and it still only right clicked. Since it was running on reserve battery power (which it does often, 95% of the time I run it down to reserve then charge it back up fully or almost fully) we plugged it in for the night. I realized that the fan was not turning off, as when I usually shut it, the fan will turn off almost instantly and even doing a lot of things at once it would only take a minute or too. I waited at least 10 minutes and the fan was still running and it was plugged in. In the morning the fan was not on because it had turned itself off. It was almost like the computer thought that the lid was still open and maybe it wasn't charging (but the battery lights say it is full) Does anyone know what I can do about this?Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

Why can I no longer set the default page to something else? Every time I open Mozilla Firefox, it always reverts back to the Mozilla page. No matter how many times I do this, it always reverts.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] -
I have purchased DVD and using this link D:\powerseller_challenge.html to open video tutorials however Explorer couldnt open so was advised to download MF. However I still dont know if tutorial videos work because when I try to open them the browser defaults to Explorer. I dont really want to make Firefox my default browser in case I have problems. Am not particularly confident with ICT.
Thanks very much. Advice from my brother was just to copy and paste the link from Explorer to Firefox. It worked but needed to download a plug-in. Did this but message was 'no suitable plug-ins found' and had to search manually. Managed to find one manually but there was warning attached that it was executable file (http://aihdownload.adobe.com/bin/install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih.exe) and could contain viruses. Didnt think it could be so hard to open a video!!!

IPad freeze up and appear to be dead and only show a black screen
My iPad2 freeze up and appear to be dead and only show a black screen, why is it so?
Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. It happens occasionally judging by the posts on here, but only once so far to me.

I am developing material in Captivate 8. The option under Preferences to "restrict keyboard tabbing to slide items only" is definitely checked, but tabbing still leaves the project screen and moves into browser fields in both preview and published views. Any ideas why this is happening?
This error message is explained on MSDN site (Article Q313181). Here is an excerpt:
SYMPTOMS
While using the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC, you may experience the following exception:
java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Can't start a cloned connection while in manual transaction mode.
CAUSE
This error occurs when you try to execute multiple statements against a SQL Server database with the JDBC driver while in manual transaction mode (AutoCommit=false) and while using the direct (SelectMethod=direct) mode. Direct mode is the default mode for the driver.
RESOLUTION
When you use manual transaction mode, you must set the SelectMethod property of the driver to Cursor, or make sure that you use only one active statement on each connection as specified in the "More Information" section of this article. -
I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version (CC2014) and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file>open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?
I have tried 'Open with' and the version of the program now installed on my computer isn't even suggested as an option and when I browse for it, the file wont open with it anywayOn Windows (don't know about Mac), the latest version will always take over the file association, and become the default for indd files. It's impossible to change it.
But there is a plugin for ID that makes this possible. Never tried it myself.

In safari browser cookies is working fine. But when I add the browser url to the screen then the cookies concept is not working. In safari setting cookies is always open only. Can you please provide any information regarding to this?
Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
Thank you. -
I use Picasa to create web albums, and I tag people who appear in the pictures. With Explorer, the name tags do not appear on the pictures until I mouse over a specific person, at which point the tag appears. With Firefox, the name tags appear as soon as the picture is loaded, and only disappear when you mouse over the people in the picture. This makes the picture look messy; by default, one would want to see a picture without tags all over people's faces.
The only way to "fix" this is to disable the name tags completely (or tell people to use Explorer!), but this is not an ideal solution, since I would like to be able to share albums with people's names in them.I use Picasa to create web albums, and I tag people who appear in the pictures.
