Can't reset home page

I am on my second Pearl since the first one wouldn't let me reset the home page. I have talked to customer service number and they finally had me get a new one but it is doing the same thing. She told me that you can't use anything with a zip code in the URL. Ok, so I tried google.com or espn.com. It says that the home page is changed and I save it but when I close the brower down and come back into it, it reverts back to mobile.blackberry.com.
Any ideas on how to fix this? They say that I should be able to change it.
Thanks

Hi and welcome to the forums!
I am a Verizon customer, the home page is not reset by the service books. I set up Google as my home page from day one.
On my 8330 Verizon with 4.3 device software I went into book marks, and collapsed the first group of bookmarks
go to BROWSER OPEN MENU KEY BOOKMARKS there is a plus or minus by links and blackberry Bookmarks, CLick to make them PLUS. Press menu key - options Browser configuration scroll to the bottom and make the home page address whatever you want. Use the Format http://www.whatever.com or you can go to the website from your browser,
press options, browser configuration, scroll to the very bottom if the page and select USE CURRENT.
You can send service books to your self!
Login in to your BIS site ( I put a link to it on the bottom)
In the upper left hand of the screen it says send service books,
You will get an email when they are received.
Try it, and let me know!
Thanks!

Safari redirected to giveaway site (free IPAD etc.), cannot reset home page

On a new (3 day old) IMac Safari is automatically opening with a 'Giveaway' site that I cannot for the life of me eliminate. It looks like I may have picked it up when I accidentally misspelled Google when I was setting my homepage. Now I cannot reset the homepage, and I assume this site uses the misspelling as a gateway to load whatever it is that is causing the redirection, Scanning with ivirus, McAfee, and Norton has not resulted in detection. Any ideas or help?

As for your homepage, try troubleshooting the Safari plist file.
Quit Safari if it's open.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
Launch Safari. If you can set your home page now, move that .plist file to the Trash. If not, move it back to the Preferences folder.
If that didn't help, from your Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 boxes, click Reset.
FYI... Norton / Symantec has been the cause of Safari crashing for years. Try a search in this forum to see the results. If you insist on having a/v software installed, keep McAfee but try uninstalling Norton. Most users end up having to erase the hard drive and start over. One a/v software installed is one thing, but two is overkill and will slow that brand new Mac drive down to a crawl. Scanning for a virus won't do any good. There aren't any Mac viruses.
It's probably Norton that is causing the re directs or your ISP.

How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??

How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

Just new to Dreamweaver cs5 / Deleting a recent Item / Resetting home page

Hello
I am new to dreamweaver cs5. Just purchased the software and teaching myself the basics. I have created several recent projects and would I like to clean up, delete them and start all over again. Also have lost dreamweavers home page and don't know how to reset it. If anyone can please help. Is there an easy way to go about this? Thank you Jon.

Hi,
To delete recent files in your file list try the following :
On Windows, it's a setting in the Windows registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Dreamweaver\Recent File List
Select each file, right-click and select Delete.
DW must be closed befoire doing this.
If you are unfamiliar with the Registry (be careful !!!!!!), you can access it by executing the following:
Start > Run > REGEDIT > OK
To show (or hide) the Welcome Screen, go to your preference, General Category and chock (or uncheck) the first one.
Hope this help !

Bug i hope mozilla can fix. Home page sometimes gets screwed up. Due to Software idiots who tamper with it and other sites... let me explain...

Mozilla is awsome, but there comes often times such as now, DivX software asked me if i wanted to make BING my default home page. I of course said no. Well it set it to that anyways in firefox. Gee, thanks Divix and thank you microsoft for joining the ways of many adware jerks out there. Well anyways, I wanted to set it back to firefox default. Well i can't. I click that button over and over click save it keeps it at bing. I really hate bing. I like google, but i also love that firefox logo i get each time i click the home button. So now like usual, there is no way to set it back the way it was no matter how often i restart the computer the browser, click the "restore to default button" i'm now once again stuck with a seach engine on the firefox page that i hate so much. The only way to fix this is to uninstall firefox, including all add-ins and plugins, and all private stuff, to completely remove it, then reinstall it. man i am so tired of this just cuz some developers are too lazy to respect the work of other developers and consumers to now force their gibberish into my favorite web browser. Can Mozilla possibly fix this so there is no possible way any developer could ruin it for me any more? I really just like the fresh default page, with the Firefox logo and Google as default. Thanks.

There are many loaders that change settings without asking.

Can't change home page preference

I have a new Mac with two accounts. On one of the accounts, I can't set a home page other than the default Apple page. I set the desired page in preferences and it works so long as I stay logged in, but when I log out and back in, it has reverted to the factory-set Apple page.
This does NOT happen on the other account - home page behaves fine on that account. I've tried:
- testing different websites as home pages. Someone in another thread said they thought it was something to do with setting Google as your home page (which is what I want) so I tried other sites, but it still happens.
- trashing the safari plist preferences file and resetting all preferences
Any other suggestions?

Can't Access home page on Windows XP...how to re-install?

I installed Oracle XE on a windows XP machine and it's not working. I believe the issue is that I log into my machine on a Windows domain, but I installed XE while at home and not connected via it. I then saw the note on the Oracle site about making sure you are connected to the network before installing. So I uninstalled and re-installed to solve the problem, but still can't get to the home page. Noting is running on port 8080.
How do I uninstall and re-install or otherwise correct this problem once I've had a bad install?
Thanks,
Don

Sorry for the slow response. I finally solved my problem. I can't explain why this works, but maybe this will help others.
When I typically log into my machine I log into a "kerberos domain" (for me "stanford.edu"). Our IT folks have set this up so that doing this also logs you in to the WIN domain as well, but you get an extra kerberos certificate for logging into other applications we commonly use.
So while logged into the kerberos domain, I uninstalled the "failed" installation of Oracle XE. Then I logged out (and rebooted for the heck of it).
I logged back in using the WIN domain (e.g. WIN/myusername) and ran the Oracle XE Universal installer.
It worked and the Oracle XS home page came up.
I logged out of Windows (and rebooted again for the heck of it).
I logged back in under my normal kerberos domain and Oracle XE continues to work.
Hopefully someone with more knowledge of Windows domains and authentication can explain why this worked.
Fyi...if I go to Control Panel > User Accounts, I can see an entry there with my username and the domain WIN. This entry has the groups ORA_DBA and Administrator. There is no other entry for the "kerberos" domain I usually log into (since it supposedly logs me into the WIN domain behind the scenes).
Good luck if you run into this problem

Cannot reset Home page-keeps defaulting to page I don't want even though I follow directions and answer question re changing home page Yes.

Can't edit home page

When I select "edit page" on the home page I get an error message (in both CS3 and CS5; I just upgraded because I thought the problem might lie with an incompatibilty with the old version). I have no problems with any of the other pages on this web site. There's no open draft of the page at the time. Help!?!

Thanks for trying, but that doesn't work.
I'm the administrator, owner, and sole user. When I click on "administer websites - manage sent drafts" there are no entries in the manage sent drafts box. And I can't "send for edit" or "send for review" because I have to get a successful response when I click on "edit this page", and that's where the trouble originates.
I've used "save as" to save the page with another name and managed to edit it, but then I can't save it under the "proper" name (which would be index.htm) because I get an error message saying that file name already exists, and I'm not given an option to replace/rewrite the existing file. So I've been unable to publish the new page to the server so that it can see it with my browser. I still get the old version with the browser.
I can't even delete the page (in order to replace it with the new one) because I get that same message error "You can't edit this page because is editing it".
I'm now trying to manage page expiry to see if I can get rid of the original page that way...
Any other suggestions will be most welcome!

When I try to set my homepage to a specific website, firefox will not store permanently. I have to reset home page each time I open firefox. are there additional instructions in help to address this?

Each time I open firefox, it doesn't open to my previously set website (Yahoo). I have to reset the homepage each time I open firefox despite following the help menu method. I'm not able to locate a possible cause/solution on the help menu. pls advise

Please do the following. 
* In the location bar, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter. 
* In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL''' 
* Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://search.yahoo.com/search?p= 
The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "''Copy Link Location''" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
'''To reset your home page, do the following'''. 
* Go to the site you want to set as your homepage. 
* Click the orange Firefox button and go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''. 
* Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu. 
* Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen. 
After you complete the above steps, install this add-on to prevent another search engine from modifying your preferences: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/browserprotect/

Can't elimate home page link...

Hi all,
When I add a new page to my site, iWeb automatically creates an item on the left hand side (Site Organizer) and also autimatically adds a link to the top part of the Home page. However, I want this new page to be accessed only from one of the already existing pages (I know how to create this link with inspector), but not from the Homepage. I can't seem to be able to delete this link. How do I do this? Another thought I had was that if there was a Site 'map' kin of like the one in iDVD where you could choose which pages are linked to each other, that would be grand. Does it exist?
Cheers

Can't rearrange home page icons onto second page

I can rearrange the icons on my two home pages on my new iPad but I can't seem to drag an icon from the first page to the second page. What am I doing wrong/

This happened to my ipad2 as well. Similar to you, i cant move my icons to the next page. I would usually do it this way, it is a not-so-user-friendly way, but it did solve my problem all the time.
You may try this.
1st, Press the icon you want to move for a few seconds until it wiggles
2nd, Drag the icon to the task bar at the bottom of the screen
3rd, Slide to the page you want the icon to be moved to.
Last, Press the icon that you just moved to the task bar n drag it back to the screen.

Hi,
this brings the error:
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters
ORA-01565: error in identifying file 'C:\Programme\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\1
0.2.0\server\dbs/spfileXE.ora'
ORA-27041: unable to open file
OSD-04002: Datei kann nicht ge┐ffnet werden
O/S-Error: (OS 2) Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.(the last lines say: "unable to open file" and "System unable to find file")
Which makes perfectly sense, because there is no such file, and nowhere else, too.
Seems that no database scheme and instance where created while installation.
[s]Is there a chance to do this after installation, i tried the installer now the second time, so i don't see a chance in reinstallation for the third time?[s]
The third installation worked out and now the database is running.
I still don't now what i did wrong before (since i did the same), but who minds if it works now...
Thanks!
