Have you tried to restart the Mac?
Another program may be blocking the drive.
If restarting does not help, check out the questions here:

Turn off Voice Control.
Otherwise, basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).

Try restarting the iPhone.
If that doesn't do it, one thing that others have done to fix this is manually set the date and time a few months out (Settings > General > Date & Time), test it again, and then set it back to the correct time.

Why won't Firefox block pop-ups even though configured to do so?

I have the browser set up to block pop-ups. It blocks the pop-ups from my bank even though I have repeatedly made that page "allowed" but allows subscription pop-ups on dozens of pages. Nearly all of these sub pop-ups force me to close them to see the page it hides. How can I actually block those annoying actions?

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

* [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]

Firefox won't open pop-ups even though pop-up blocker is off.

Hello,
I'm a website designer using ff 3.6.13 on XP sp3 platform. FF is very temperamental with pop-ups so I shut off Pop-up blocker. Regardless of blocker being off, pop-ups are still blocked on a site I'm working on. Until recently, these Pop-up links used to work well in FF. They still work great in Chrome and IE.
My Firewall program does not have pop-up blocker:
An example of the pop-up is located on the "download" link at the top of this page listed below:
http://www.technologymarketingcenter.com/resourcearchive/how-not-to-execute-guerilla-warfare.php

There is a fix for Dreamweaver, so it works in Firefox 3.6+ versions:
http://solutions.marketingmedley.com/
There is a $5.00 fee for that Dreamweaver fix. That website and the fix are not associated with Mozilla in any manner. Support for that fix is provided by that that website via email.

We are still getting pop-ups even though we have the pop up blocker enabled via tools

pop ups continue - enabler is enabled through options. we just got a
warning "to display this page, firefox must send information that will repeat any action ( such as search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier."

See - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Popups_not_blocked

Since upgrading to 3.6.3, I have 3 problems: frequent crashes, frequent "unresponsive script" messages, and frequent pop-ups, even with pop-up blocker turned on.

Crashes are pretty random - can't link them to any particular site or action. The unresponsive script messages mostly come from e-mail sites (yahoo, gmail). Pop-ups are frequent and annoying, and may be causing some of the crashes.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I upgraded to version 3.6.3

I have the same problem and it's really frustating - although my main browser is Google Chrome, I use Firefox for all the RSS feeds that I subscribe to and sites that only have Firefox plug-ins. Will Mozilla FIrefox get this fixed with a newer version soon?

Why do Facebook notifications pop up even when notifications are off?

This is with my iPad 2 running iOS 6.1.
I get notifications from FaceBook popping up in the middle of my screen. But in Settings > Notifications I have it set to Manually and FaceBook is "Not in Notification Center" plus under FaceBook I have Notification Center turned OFF and alert style set to None.
So why do notifications appear?
Thanks,

Hi,
I have an Apple ID that is based on an External to Apple email address.
I registered this for iCloud and got an @me.com name at the time.
I later got an @iCloud.com Email Address as well.
I can access here to post, iTunes and App Store with any of these ID/Names and access my Apple Account.
They have a common Password.
In iMessages I use the external to Apple email.
I use the same one on my main iPhone.
This Number is then listed in my iMessages Settings
On my second iPhone I used the @me.com email as the Apple ID
iMessages treats them separately to a certian extent.
It does however keep asking me to Add the (2nd) iPhone Number and the linked Apple ID to the iMessages settings on the Mac (and now and then to the 1st iPhone as well).
Despite me refusing the pop ups that link them when they arrive the @me.com emails shows up as an "Alias" on the Mac's iMessages account.
I am wondering if something similar to this is what has happened to you ?
It could be you have older @mac.com names or even @me.com ones that were originally linked sub accounts (Family account sub emails) ?
In the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder enter ~/Library/Preferences into the Dialogue box.
(you can Copy from here and Paste there)
Find the com.apple.iMessages.bag.plist and delete it on the Macs that have the IDs you don't want to use on that machine.
This will remove emails and iPhone numbers so you may have to reset your own iPhone to then Accept the pops ups when they appear.

Frontier email, text is way too big for screen, cannot see it all even when scrolling completely left to right. How can I make smaller?

I only have this problem with my Frontier email page. The text of the emails is so big I can't see it all even when scrolling completely left to right. It's like it is zoomed in about 200%. Is there something I can do to zoom out with some tool or is this a Frontier problem or a computer problem?

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems: View > Zoom > Reset (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)

How can I allow pop-ups even after "Block pop-ups" is NOT checked?

When I'm on the Google Drive website (https://drive.google.com/) and I click Create > Document, I get the following message:
"Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page."
My only options on the far right are "Allow", and "[X]" to exit.
The URL for any new document starts with "https://docs.google.com/".
Seeing as creating a new Google document forces a new tab to open, I felt that this would fall under "pop-up windows".
Help, please!

This is not because of a blocked popup. 
This is an accessability setting.
You can turn this off, by following these steps:
#Go to the Firefox Options
#Select the General Tab
#Uncheck the Warn me when websites try to reload...
Please report back soon.

Open File dialog box pops up even when file type is supposed to automatically open

Even though I have selected "Do this automatically for files like this" the dialog still pops up when I click on that file type.
Thanks

An automatically download action is tied to a specific MIME type that the server send via the HTTP response headers and not to the file extension. 
So it is possible that you have created this action for a different (or generic) file type.

I am totally frustrated with Firefox and would like to know how to uninstall it. I am getting obscene pop-ups, and when I ask for specific information, other unrelated information pops us. I have had this for one day and don't like it.

Additionally, I cannot find my address book listed on any toolbar. I also put in the address for a site that I have previously gone to and get a page that says that the address can't be found. The address is that of a library. I am not pleased.
I currently have a pop-up from Wal-Mart that I cannot exit. It will NOT disappear no matter what I click. I will have to close down the computer totally to get rid of it.
Thanks.

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs. 
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

Cannot get mail appears even when receiving mail

After I set up my email on my iPad, the cannot get mail pops up every time I open my email. I'm getting email. And it keeps asking me for my password. Email is working?

You get that if your username and password are not entered in the outgoing mail server settings so check the outgoing mail server setting.
Make sure that your username and password are in there.

Cannot download ePub books even when authorized

I cannot understand why I am the only user and my adobeid is authorized for my email address. What is happening. The error says the licence is used by another user with the error fulfil followed by so E numbers. Can anyone please advise

possibly ....
Sometimes ADE gets its registration/activation confused and in a semi-authorized state.
Uninstalling and reinstalling does not help.
Unfortunately, it often then gives misleading error messages about what is wrong.
A common incorrect message informs you that the ID is already in use on another computer and cannot be reused.
This can often be resolved by completely removing any authorization using ctrl-shift-D to the Library screen on ADE (cmd-shift-D if on Mac).
Restart ADE, and then reauthorize with your (old) Adobe ID.
In extreme cases on the mac, the following extra step has helped some people. Navigate to /Users//Library/Application Support/Adobe/Digital Editions and drag the activation.dat file to the trash.
