Cannot read text on Firefox 4. It is all squares. What can I do to fix?

Downloaded Firefox 4 to my laptop running Windows 7. When the downlaod was complete, the Firefox browser launched and it was all these squares. What can I do to fix? I am not really that computer literate and this is bugging me because I prefer Mozilla over IE,

I cannot read by emails, letters too small and distorted. What can I do?

''dupe of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/912575''
I was on line writing my emails when all of a sudden the page changed...the letter became very small, distorted, actually the whole page did...what can I do?

When you are viewing that page hit '''{ Ctrl + 0 }''' < ''that's a zero number'' - to reset the zoom level for that domain.

If you move the scroll wheel and are holding the Ctrl key, you will change the zoom level of the page that is being viewed - both in & out.

Java7 and Java6 will not work opening pogo games on firefox, but works perfectly for IE, what can I do to fix this issue?

Java will not work on the computer all of a sudden. Now when I go to open a Pogo game room up i get a Mozilla red lego piece in the corner saying "Some plug ins have been De-activated for your safety, in the box will be "Java (TM) platform SE 6 U". I have removed Java7 and reloaded it, after that not working found Java6 and loaded and reloaded it and it is not working.
Now after 3 minutes of the room not loading Pogo will give me the error message of
Java Not Found or Not Working
Explanation:
This error means Java (one of the technologies built into most browsers) is not working correctly on your browser.
You must have Java installed on your computer in order to run Pogo games, and it must be functioning properly. Either you don't have Java installed yet, or the Web browser you're currently using doesn't support Java or you have Java (or Javascript) disabled in your browser.
How to Fix the Problem:
Java is a free download that is required to play Pogo games. Not all computers come with Java pre-installed.
If you haven't played Pogo games before and are getting this error, you probably just need to install Java on your computer.
For instructions on installing Java for your operating system and browser click here.
If you believe Java might be installed but disabled for your browser, please be sure to enable the plugin for your browser. If you need help, click here.
If you already have Java installed and it is not disabled, your Java may be out-of-date or no longer working. In that case, your Java might need to be upgraded or reinstalled. If you need help, click here.
I have done the click here in last sentence and all it wants me to do is download Java7 which was the first reason it was not working.
Hopefully I have explained this well enough, from Mozilla this is what I get BUT if I go to Internet Explorer (which I HATE) the Java6 and Java7 work perfectly fine. So apparently the Java is downloaded correctly I just can not get it to play nicely with Mozilla and that is my main goal.
EA games help page has gone through it all with me and have proven over and over (after 1 hour sessions, 45 waits for them) Java is working on my computer perfectly with IE just not on Firefox and with the rural situation I have become dependent on Mozilla because of the no fiber optics here it has been my best and only source of successfully using the internet here in the far out part of the country.

Thank you so much, for once in my computer life I knew what the problem was, what caused it, why it was caused, what it did, what it made it do and most importantly how to fix it and to do it correctly and expeditiously. I can not Thank You all enough for all of the help! I also have Pogo mailed this to all on my friends list, where they have all learned as I have and have fixed theirs also. and the message is being spread. Thank You again, I just can not say it enough.

Firefox is not saving my tabs when Firefox starts back up after shutdown -- what can I do to fix this???

Ever since I updated to the latest Firefox 3.6.12 a several weeks ago I began to have this problem. Under 'Options' and 'Start Up' I have highlighted - when Firefox starts " Show my Windows & Tabs from last time". My settings have never changed since this last update to the latest version so I don't know why I am experiencing this problem. I will say that I did recently do a Windows Reinstall on my computer (Window XP - SP3) but this didn't start to become a problem until the latest Firefox update a week or two later so I doubt this may have something to do with the problem.
After looking on the forums for solutions to this problem I came across one thread, which said that this can be a problem with the file sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Profile Folder and then said what to do to find and delete these type of existing files. Well, I followed the instructions on how to do so and yet Firefox still doesn't always save my Tabs upon computer shutdown. I'd say 2 out of 3 times I do a restart or shutdown it saves my Tabs but 1 out of 3, it does not. By the way, I thought I'd also mention that this exact problem is happening on two of my computers both running Version 3.6.12.
So what gives?...could it be problems with the latest Version 3.6.12 causing this since that's when this problem started occurring? What else can I do to troubleshoot and finally fix this? ...it has become very frustrating since I keep a lot of open tabs before closing Firefox and never know when it's not gonna save!!!

HT4623 Just updated to iOS is to 7. The phone is stuck in a loop on the terms and conditions of use and I cannot break out and use the phone at all. What can I do?

Hi How do I break out of this loop?

I rebooted my phone by pressing the button on the front and top of the phone at the same time. After the phone restarted, I was able to get out of the do-loop. Hope that works for you.

HT203977 My new IPad Air 2 will not let me send text messages to non Apple devices. What can I do to fix this problem?

I have a brand new IPad Air 2. My operating system is 8.2. I am not able to send iMessages (texts) to non Apple devices. When I attempt to, the name is in red not green. What can I do to fix this?

An iPad is not capable of natively sending an SMS or MMS messages. Those services require a cellular voice channel connection, and a data tablet is only capable of a cellular data channel connection, not a voice channel connection.
If you have an iPhone, under the settings on the iPhone you can enable forwarding with your iPad - where the iPhone actually sends and receives the SMS texts and shares them with your iPad.
Otherwise, you will need to use an app and internet service like the telegram messaging app. Or you can send emails to the persons cell phone via their carriers texting gateway (e.g. [email protected] if they use AT&T in the USA).
iMessages between iOS apps are separate from SMS texts as iMessages use Apples internet service and equipment. But the SMS protocol crams a short text message into the residual bandwidth of a cellular phones voice channel and cannot be sent over a cellular data connection.

Most movies have Dolby surround sound. Seems like you don't have all sound channels coming out of your speakers.
Is the AppleTV connected to a receiver or to a TV?
If you have a receiver that supports dolby surround you should configure the sound settings of the Apple TV and receiver accordingly.
If it's connected to a TV the audio setting "Dolby Digital" in the Apple TV should be set to off.

Have not a clue if this a LION problem or Microsoft problem. My gut says Microsoft as they acknowledge the problem in their support section. Their solution: Open files with previous version of Word. That is completely unacceptable as a solution in my opinion. Why would have I ever bothered to upgrade to 2011 if I had known I need to keep a version of 2008 running on my computer.
Honestly I don't know if it's a Lion or MS problem eihter. I have been using Lion for many months with Office 2011 with no problems though.The earliest version I had on my machine was 2008 and 2011 opened those files with no problems at all. As Dave mentioned earlier he opens Office 2004 files all the time with 2011.
One thing you might want to do is restart the computer while holding down the Option key then select the Restore Volume and run Disk Utility and repair the Disk Permissions on the HD. Run DP at least 2x.

Reset your phone by holding down the home button with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. Try it again.
