Can't disable quick find, none of the regular fixes are working.

I've been running Firefox 23 with no problems for a while, and just discovered that I get a quick find prompt every time I type an apostrophe into text boxes. The "search for text" option in my tool panel is unchecked, and I have repeatedly tried opening dialogue boxes to reset quick find, but I still get prompted every time I hit a slash or an apostrophe. This is incredibly inconvenient, and I've been searching for a way to fix this for the last hour and nothing has worked.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''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 [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the 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 other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Disabled ipod and none of the suggested fixes are working!

My daughter entered her password wrong too many times and her ipod is now disabled. I've tried all the suggested fixes on the support page and nothing is working. When I try to restore it thru itunes it says it can't because it is locked with a password. I tried to erase it thru icloud, but the ipod is offline and I don't know how to get it online. I tried to soft reset, I tried to hard reset. Nothing! Help!

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
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.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Is there any way to disable Quick Find and use the old VS 2010 find?

I really dislike the Quick Find dialog. It's one of the few tools from the VS 2010 Productivity Pack that I always disabled. It looks like they've forced it on us with 2012 though, so I'm wondering if there's a way to disable Quick Find and use the old
style Find dialog?

I wish the VS2012 devs would realize just how badly the Quick Find tool slows me down. It's poorly labelled, does a full search immediately after every single keystroke, and doesn't default to whatever's highlighted in the code when invoked. It
makes me feel like I'm the only one who uses the product.
I agree with ElectricNinja and
Disable Quick Find in VS 2012
The quick find is terrible, and was one of the few tools that I'd disable in the 2010 pack. wish there was a way to return to the good old normal find.

Only the carrier the phone is locked to can authorize the unlock. You will need to contact Vodafone to see if you qualify for an unlock.

None of the exterior buttons are working...

I recently replaced my screen and digitizer. Everything was still functioning well, even with the cracked screen. I opted to replace both screen and digitizer, since it appears to be quite the process to transfer the old digitizer to the new glass only. I also at this time, since I have one of the first waves of iPhone 5 (had it from day 1 of its release) decided to replace the wi-fi antenna, since I was already pulling the phone apart anyways. After performing what I feel to be a very successful replacement of both the wi-fi antenna and the screen/digitizer, none the side buttons work anymore! I have triple checked to make sure all ribbons are in place and everything appears to be in good order. I was very careful with the whole process, so can't imagine that anything was damaged. But now, the sleep/wake button, the mute slider button and neither of the volume buttons ( + or - ) work. I am assuming that all these function via different cables and/or contact points...? What could be the issue here?

Since the iPhone should not be opened or repaired by the user or another 3rd party without loosing the warranty or the Out-Of-Warranty Service option, we can only speculate, that one of the repair steps you took is the reason for the problems.
The only solution would be seeking help from a 3rd party repair shop and hope that they will be able to solve the issue.

Adobe Photoshop CS6 none of the blending modes are working.

For example if I set a lens flare with a black background and set it to screen it will not work. None of the blending modes work. Anyone know how to fix this issue? I am fairly new to photoshop and really need some help.

My MBP is stuck in Guest User mode and the taskbar is unresponsive. None of the keyboard shortcuts are working either. What do I do?

After an automatic update last night that updated my recent Lion to 10.7.2 w iCloud a new guest user account appeared at the login screen. The login screen wasn't responding so I clicked on both user accounts. As luck would have it the guest account logged in and now Im stuck there at the safari window that won't load. It's just stuck at a guest login information screen. It isn't even connecting to the internet. The mouse moves but it won't click on anything. And despite restarting the comp a few times it opens up back at the same screen. I think that's Lions built in autorecovery mechanism that won't let it go back to the beginning. I've already tried rebooting holding command-r. that isnt working either.
Any suggestions?

i have a dvd stuck in my superdrive, so in an attempt to get it out, I tried clicking on the guest account listed at startup. now i have an additional problem, i can't logout of the guest account. i can only get access to my profile by safe booting (holding shift on booting). if i boot normally, it automatically goes back into the guest account, which has no accessibility. i can't even use the "shut down" or "restart" options.

IPod is frozen, none of the "5 steps" are working...Help!

Got the iPod Nano yesterday for Christmas as did many others. It was working fine until this morning when I tried to charge it by connecting it to the computer. It lit up and froze on the spot. The clicker made a noise when pressed down, but would not work otherwise. Eventually, the clicking stopped and it remained frozen until it died a few hours later. After that ordeal, I turned it back on with the remaining bit of battery to it working fine again, and charged it for a couple hours. Everything seemed good. About 20 minutes ago, I wanted to update my library so I (once again) plugged it into the USB. It lit up, and froze. The reset method does not work, the toggle of the HOLD switch does not work, nothing seems to be working.

I left my iPod Nano alone for a couple of months. I assumed the battery was drained, so plugged it into a charger last night.
The apple icon comes up but I cannot get it past that icon. I plugged it into the power cord & plugged it into my computer, which I left on all night. Still displays apple icon only.
The computer does not recognize the ipod as being attached.
I have tried the "slide hold on & off" and the reboot sequence (holding down the center button & the menu simultaneously). It turns off after 6 seconds and then comes on.
And still the Apple & nothing.
So do I let it discharge again and charge & retry?

You are creating a new account and not trying to update an existing account ? If you are then if you select a free app in the store and click on 'create Apple id' when 'buying' it then you should get the 'none' option - that process worked for me on Saturday.

How do I turn off the "quick find" box in the compose email window?

I'm surprised to see this has not been asked here as I see many complaints about it on the web.....but no solution.
I have difficulties when composing emails. The "quick find" box in the lower left of the windows begins to "intercept" my typing. Once it begins I can no longer write in the actual compose box. How do I get rid of it?

How to disable the touch pad on the HP 6730b laptop? None of the prev sugg have worked

An associate of mine is working on an HP 6730b and her wrist or sleeve keeps brushing against the touch pad, making the pointer jump around. Since she doesn't use it anyway, she wants to disable it, but none of the suggestions I've found have worked. There is no on/off button near it on this model; nor a Device Settings tab in the touch pad's Properties, so she can't go the simple route.

Can't access in Finder Contextual Menu the sub-menu named More

Hi!
I was trying to learn how to use Automator, in the web page
http://www.macosxautomation.com/automator/examples/ex03/index.html
and I realize that I can't access in Finder Contextual Menu the sub-menu named More for choose Automator > Create Workflow... from the sub-menu.
Someone can help me to configure the finder in order to

That page is out of date since it doesn't reflect the change in Snow Leopard that did away with the More contextual menu. Try this. System Preferences->Keyboard->Keyboard Shortcuts->Services->Development->enable Create Workflow. Close the prefPane, select the object, CONTROL-click->Services->Create Workflow.
If that solves your issue, then send a message to the page's developer and ask them to update it.
BTW, see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2241804 for a four-parter by Sal Saghoian on *Automation in Snow Leopard*

Thanks for your help

If you don't want a :hover state to show in the phone css of a fluid grid layout, you would remove it from the global settings and only include it in the tablet and desktop media queries.
Or are you trying to do something else?

There is a commercial about an app called AirPlay, yet I can't seem to find it in the app store?

It's not an app. It's used for Wi-Fi devices.
