BT Web Address Help Preferences issues

I'm trying to log into a work network which I used to have access to with my old hub.  I now have a Hub 3 and the following link says it can't open my preferences - it worked on my old hub but not any more.  Any ideas appreciated
BT Web Address Help Preferences

Working for me with HH3.
I could be something odd in your DNS setup: try http://213.120.178.105/selfcare/

  • Cant disable BT Web Address Help

    One of my vpn clients can connect to the VPN but is unable to do anything when they are connected.
    I have been trying to get him to disable the BT Web Address Help service but when ever he disables it, saves the setting and closes the browser, it seems to change back to enabled again when he checks back on the preferences page. 
    He has tried to change this setting on 2 machines in his house and they all appear to enable themselves again.
    Any help is much appreciated.

    It shouldn't be doing that (though I too have had it enabled again, just the once, which was very recent - no idea why).
    Since I opted out (again), it has remained disabled.
    I guess his only option is to call or email BT and ask them to look in to this, or he could sign up to these forums and then ask the forum mods to look in to this.
    Putting what is stated on the status of the web address help aside, what happens if he deliberately uses an incomplete URL, for example bthomehub.hom (missing the e - it should be home) - does it go to a BTYahoo page or give an error message?

  • BT Web Address Help service, i dont want BT interc...

    Hi Guys, I came accross this service yesterday when trying to navigate to a URL that is no longer valid, after doing this i was redirected to a BT Web page saying the URL is invalid and suggesting some alternative pages for me rather than just getting the usual page not found msg from the web browser, i understand this could be a usefull service but i do not appreciate BT hijacking my search information without my express permission even if it is to help me, anyway a quick google search gave me 1 link with instructions of how to disable this service, I cannot find any official information from BT on any of its own sites with regards to this service, it totally smacks of the secret phorm trial that BT was running some time ago. anyway if this happens to you here is a link to the page that helped me to disable it if you so wish.

    Hi all
    Web Address Help is a new service launched by BT which provides useful search results in place of an error message when a URL has been typed incorrectly. Customers are automatically given Web Address Help unless they tell us they don’t want it. It is easy to opt out if you would prefer not to have this service.
    We have further information about Web Address Help on our Help pages on BT.com.  This page contains clear instructions on how to opt out.  Please use this link to find out more:  http://www.bt.com/help/webaddresshelp

  • BT Web address help screws up local name resolutio...

    I discovered that since the move to BT Infinity, my nightly NAS backup has been failing.
    It's an rsync job backing up from one qnap NAS to another.  The destination NAS is named in the rynsc job setup.  Ater much faffing I found that the name was resolving completely elsewhere.  After much more faffing I located BT web address help sending back the "duff" IP address.
    Am I right in thinking that if the DNS sent back a domain unkown message, then the NAS would have tried (and succeeded) to resolve the name locally.
    Can anyone who actually knows about networking confirm this?  It doesn't seem terribly useful for BT web address help to do this.  I've opted out and I think I have got my local name resolution working again.  Tonight's backup will tell.
    Thanks
    Graham

    Web address help will upset quite a few things, so its best to stay opted out.
    If it still fails tonight, then let me know, and I may have a few other suggestions.

  • Apache message instead of web address HELP?

    This message comes up when I try to access a particular website. I can access the site from other computers but not this one. I have tried various links with no success.
    Great Success !
    Apache is working on your cPanel® and WHM™ Server
    If you can see this page, then the people who manage this server have installed cPanel and WebHost Manager (WHM) which use the Apache Web server software and the Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) successfully. They now have to add content to this directory and replace this placeholder page, or else point the server at their real content.
    ATTENTION!
    If you are seeing this page instead of the site you expected, please contact the administrator of the site involved. (Try sending an email to <webmaster@domain>.) Although this site is running cPanel, WebHost Manager, and Apache software it almost certainly has no other connection to cPanel Inc. or the Apache Group. Please do not send mail about this site or its contents to cPanel Inc. or the Apache Group.
    About cPanel:
    cPanel is a leading provider of software for the webhosting industry. If you would like to learn more about cPanel please visit our website at www.cpanel.net. Please be advised that cPanel Inc. is not a web hosting company, and as such has no control over content found elsewhere on this site.
    About Apache HTTP Server:
    The Apache HTTP Server is an open source web server which powers many of the worlds web sites. The Apache HTTP server is part of the Apache Group's many influential projects. Their efforts have helped shape much the world wide web, and they continue to be a dominating force in the web hosting industry.

    One way would be to use standard domain name forwarding (not CNAME) and enable masking. That would put http://www.topviewweddings.co.uk in the URL window of ALL your pages. The downside to that is visitors can only bookmark your first page which may or may not be a problem. My tutorial site, http://toadstutorials.info , is set up that way.

  • BT Web Address Help has been turned back on

    As per the subject heading
    Did BT decide to override my decision and turn this back on without my knowledge?
    I am 100% sure that I turned this off on ‎07-09-2010
    By accident I typed in bthomehub.hom in my browser, which redirected me to a BTYahoo endorsed search results page. I then checked my preferences and this was what mine was now showing
    I have now, yet again, disabled this.
    The only change at my end was to use the hub3's other pre configured IP address range.
    Would this cause it to be reactivated?
    (my hub now uses 172.16.0.1 and not 192.168.1.254)

  • Using own domain name , duplication of web address HELP !!

    Hi all,
    Although this is not a big problem it is quite annoying. I am currently building website within Iweb 09. I have managed to set up my own domain name with no problems at all. The only thing is I get a duplication of my website name on the browser here it is :
    *http://www.topviewweddings.co.uk/topviewweddings/Home.html*
    I would ideally like to just have *http://www.topviewweddings.co.uk*
    Anyone have any ideas on how to do this ??
    cheers

  • Can someone help me get my web address bar back up on Safari?

    I don't really know what you call it, but the bar that you type web addresses in, at the top of the page, somehow disappeared. If I use this browser it is only to visit pages that I had bookmarked, because I have no way of typing in new addresses. I'm not really sure what I did, but it's gone...
    I have Safari 2.0.4, but I just don't see anything in Preferences or anywhere else that will help me get bar back on the page. Can someone help me?

    lol that was easy... I had been over that but apparently didn't drag it over to the bar correctly last time I was in there.
    Thanks

  • Need web address for email redirector!!! Help

    Ok, I am a newbie to the blackberry.  My work will not allow me (via their enterprise server) to connect so I want to know how to set up the email on my computer and leave it on.  It says I need to have a web address from my provider (Verizon for the phone).  What is it? 
    Also I do not see  email redirector on my blackberry desktop software that came with my phone.
    Can some one help me with my two problems and give me step by step instructions?

    I have a personal email account through Comcast that I want to have my work emails forwarded to
    For my Comcast email I use Outlook to view them, not the web based email
    At work I have Oulook as my email program
    Try adding your Comcast email address as an account use: mail.comcast.net for pop3 and smtp.comcast.net. For outgoing.
    This will give you give you access to your comcast email at work. If you are not able to , this is verification of the IT policy.
    They have a BB server, but will not let me use it because I do not have a work issued phone (very common in most BES companies)
    When I create a rule in Outlook at work to forward to my Comcast email it does not work (IT guy thinks there may be a setting blocking it from the IT dept.)  This is most likely why you cannot forward your email. IF an IT policy is in effect to block forwarding than neither
    option, Comcast or Google will work.
    If I try to use the Outlook web URL in my BB browser it will not work either
    I believe you will only be able to view emails and not file to folders from OWA, I need to look it up.
    I believe their accounts are not a POP3 account
    If you mean your WORK email account, probably not.
    I went in to my web mail to use mail box manager but it says put in a comcast email address, a POP3 address, or an IMAP address
    Mail.comcast.net is the pop3 address for Comcast
    So based on all of this here are my questions:
    Do I need to find out how our work email accounts are structured? (POP3, or some other conf.)
    If I try loading the gmail as you suggest won't I still have the same problem having it not work if the rule I need to create in my work email is not functioning?
    Sorry if I sound like a pain, but I am at a loss here and I am wondering if technically I am not getting what you are saying, or I am truly not going to be able to get my work emails on my BB.
    What do you suggest now for me?  Was I clear on all the facts I know and do I need to find out anything else from work?
    The entire process hinges on the IT policy. If they won't let you forward your email, or add email accounts, you will
    Not be able to circumvent the policy and won't be able to use either Comcast or Google to receive your work email.

  • Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Just got my Mac air and i would like to make a file to store some web addresses for my new business with rodan and fields and I can't do it. Made the file but i cant copy and paste the web addresses in the file to save them. Please help and thank you.

    Yes - well you have to make the file in a word processing Application.
    You could use TextEdit (it's free) Pages (words only), or Numbers (data base) (they are part of iWorks - and may or may not be free (included) on your machine.  You could use MS Office (it is not free) You could use any Open source word processor that plays well with Office (NeoOffice, StarOffice) they are free.
    That's how you create content and copy/paste URLS. Then you save the file to the desktop. If you are going to make more than one file... you make a folder on the desktop and save, or drag the file(s) into it.
    You attach it to your e-mail client which will compress it and e-mail it. An excellent reference is to use Help, from the menu bar, also from inside any application. From your library or book store the OS X for Dummies has a lot of useful information (you don't read it cover to cover but look up chapters about what you'd like to do)
    You can also make appointments at your local Apple store for individualized help (if a store is nearby)

  • I can not delete my history and adding new bookmarks. Upgrading to later Firefox versions and/or re-installing didn't help. The address bar still shows the web addresses of old and whenever I make new bookmarks, it's always gone as if it was never made.

    I can not delete my history and adding new bookmarks.
    Upgrading to later Firefox versions and/or re-installing didn't rectify it either.
    The address bar still shows the web addresses of old and whenever I make new bookmarks, it's always gone as if it was never made.
    Also, I have noticed that every once in awhile you can not close tabs you've opened, either by pushing on the X button and/or clicking on the mouse to close it. Although closing the window and opening it again (without closing the Firefox application) seemed to rectify the problem in the short term, it's becoming quite annoying.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == the Firefox is being used

    I think I have a solution.
    First, download the add-on SQManager. This should be included with FireFox, it is really good.
    Look for the file '''moz_hosts''' in the folder '''places.sqlite'''.
    Don't delete the file, just delete the information in the file. My file has over 3600 websites, which go back years!! I did not know they were there, but I was frustrated about not being able to get rid of them. They popped up every time I used the address bar. Clearing my history would not get rid of them.
    This is where they are stored!! I found that by deleting the pesky web site from '''moz_hosts''', it does not appear in my address bar anymore!!!
    I think that if I just delete all the websites in moz_hosts....
    Wa-la...History Gone!!!
    As long as you don't delete the file, just empty it, FireFox won't know the difference. It will just keep adding websites to it until you empty it again.
    Why running "clear recent history" doesn't do this, I don't know. You are doing manually what "clear recent history" is not doing.
    Please tell me if you see any flaw in this.

  • Problem with utube it says verify web address after buffering help!

    When I want to watch a video on youtube it starts buffering then writes verify the web address if valid then stops. What's the solution?

    Okay, so I changed the CNAME back to its defults
    but when I went into domain manager, I saw this:
    Notice the hosting. I dont understand because I have the domain hosted with godaddy.
    Anyway, do you think it could be because I had a folder with the domain? i changed it back so it looks like this now:
    (each line is one of my domains)
    And here is what my iweb publishing page looks like
    I just dont understand why its still not publishing, everything seems right
    thanks!

  • How do I set the enter button on my keyboard to go to websites after I have entered the web address

    After I type in the web address and hit enter it doesnt go to the site. I have to manually use the mouse and click the button to proceed to the web site. On all of my old versions i would type the web address and click enter and it would take me to the site.

    Hi goldowskin,
    I'd try starting Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If you don't have the issue while all of your add-ons, extensions, and themes are disabled, you can try adding them back in one by one until you find the culprit. You should look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting-extensions-themes Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide ] and the [[Troubleshooting plugins]] article as well.
    Hopefully this helps!
