If you are absolutely positively sure that the password you are typing in is your Apple ID password, I would try once more to enter the password. Be real careful as you type and make sure that Autocorrect is not changing what you are typing.
If no luck try to proceed without entering the password. If you can get the iPad functional go into
Settings > ITunes and App Store and log in there.
If you can log into to your Apple ID there you will also need to go to
Settings > Messages > Send and Receive and enter or check the email at which you want to receive messages,
Also
Settings > FaceTime > check or enter the email address you want to be reached by FaceTime.

Downloaded Firefox on new win 8 pc--background is black on all web pages--help

New PC w/ win 8. Downloaded Firefox. ok BUT background is black with some blue fonts or some words invisible. Could be a setting in my pc? Chrome works ok. IE is also black with blue font. I prefer Firefox so I would like to resolve this---thanks!

try to solve the issue here :
Tools > Options > Content > Colors, and check the "Allow pages to choose their own colors" box

Firefox does not load nor does it let me open any web pages

already try'd doing the proxy home page didnt work ran a virus scan with two different servers didnt work and I can access any web page through safari and explorer

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Firefox updated and now when I try to open up a web page, Firefox completely closes the browser. When I open it back up, it asks to restore the session. What happened???!!

When you bring up the browser and type in Church of God's Messengers, it brings up the links. When you click on the links, it closes Firefox completely. When you bring back up Firefox it asks you if you want to restore the session. I never used to have problems accessing the site. What happened???!!!

Are you using an iPhone or iPad?

When trying to cler all browsing history at the location bar, although I follow the instructions to 'ctrl, shift, delete, some web pages remain stuck. Even if I highlight them one at a time and hit delete, they remain. What can I do to eliminate them?

When trying to delete web pages from my history at the location bar drop-down area, I do as Firefox instructs by hitting the 'ctrl, shift, delete' keys but some web pages remain. Even if I highlight each page and hit delete, they remain. How can I eliminate these web pages?

If you visit a bookmarked site then that site will become a history item and shows as such in the location bar drop down list.

Hi, i am trying to download an ap and it is saying my sercity questions answers are wrong, it has now locked my apple id and wont let me use it. It is saying it is going to send the reset for the passwords to my email adress.

Hi, i was using my iphone 4 and i was trying to download an app. It was saying i needed a sercity question. I tryed to remember the answers to the questions but i forgot. It was saying it was going to send the correct answers to my email. But the email it has typed in i have never seen before in my life. So i was wondering what to do. It has now locked my apple id and wont let me use it.

That's not a good sign if it said it was going to send it to an email address you've never heard of. Contact iTunes Support and let them know this: http://apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

I downloaded firefox 4 and it will not work on my Mac OSX4.11

I downloaded firefox 4 and it will not work on my Mac OSX4.11.

Very weird day in Firefoxland
First on a Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11 I respond to an invitation to upgrade to Firefox 4 (like a lot of others). Long story short, I wind up losing the browser altogether -- including all bookmarks. Why? Because neither the Firefox homepage (or CNET downloads) makes it clear that 4.0 is for OS 10.5 only! Amazing!
Then I try to register to post a reply in a thread that crits Firefox for not making this System Requirements info upfront clear. But the Register page I’m taken to (https://support.mozilla.com/bs/users/register) is in SERBO-CROATIAN!!
Then I try to log into Chat a couple of times and when it’s not CLOSED its a long line waiting and THEN it closes.
WOW!! Are the wheels off the wagon here or what!?!

I downloaded Firefox 5 and discovered it disabled my McAfee SiteAdvisor becauce of incompatability. How do I delete the Firefox 5 and reload my old Firefox 4 so I can reactivate the SiteAdvisor.

I downloaded Firefox 5 and discovered it disabled my McAfee SiteAdvisor because of incompatibility. No compatible version of the SiteAdvisor was found. How do I delete the Firefox-5 and reload my old Firefox-4 so I may reactivate the SiteAdvisor?
Thank you

McAfee have taken the decision to rewrite the Firefox SiteAdvisor plugin to make it easier to update. This should ensure that Mozilla's fast-release schedule does not cause lengthy delays after future version updates. What it means for Firefox now though is that until the rewrite is complete - and tested - SiteAdvisor is being prevented from loading in Firefox in order to avoid the possibility of software incompatibility.
The SA rewrite is projected to take a few weeks to complete and test; it should be ready by about the third week of July, although the exact date is not being given at this stage. It could be earlier.
In the meantime, users who are concerned about the safety of websites may wish to consider WOT as a temporary substitute. WOT ratings are set by user consensus rather than by automated site testing, so WOT is not a full replacement for SiteAdvisor. It is, however, a good rating tool in its own right (I use both it and SiteAdvisor in all my browsers) and is apparently unaffected by the upgrade to FF5.
There is a discussion about this on the McAfee forums [https://community.mcafee.com/thread/36733?tstart=0 HERE]

Hello,
There are no files like that in that folder (com.apple.safari). They all have long numbers with .jpeg or .png at the end. That's what I meant by I cannot find any files like those mentioned in all the helps I read today. BTW-it's still crashing - no particular pattern to it at all.
The only two things I have downloaded recently is a new version of Flash and a Mac-driven update to Office.
Thank you very much for your attempt to help us.

I have just downloaded Firefox 4 and my autofill on the google toolbar is not working for any webpages it previously worked with. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks

Crap. That's what I was afraid of...Well, since I'm away from home and not near my pc, it sounds like I'm out of luck. The problem is that I need my phone to be at least functional for making and receiving calls. There's an apple store nearby. Perhaps I can go there and have them restore it and at least I'll be able to make and receive calls until I get home and restore from my backup. Does that sound feasible, or am I missing something?
P.s. I tried to click "correct answer" and accidentally hit "helpful". Sorry about that...

I downloaded Firefox 7 and when I click on the browser icon nothing happens, the browser does not load on desktop.I had no problems with Firefox 4 I had been using for several years and liked very much

Most people have no problems with installing firefox as an upgrade, but there are quite a few things that can cause problems. Please have a look at the articles
* [[software Update Failed]] <-- clickable link (blue ) --
* [[firefox will not start]]
* [[firefox does not work]]
Post back after you read them and say what you tried. Have you ensured you used an admin account, possibly needing to check the UAC setting, and that security software is not blocking the changes. You should certainly try starting in firefox's [[safe mode]] either from a menu/icon option or by holding the shift key as you attempt to run firefox.
Is the browser icon you see on the desktop, and a firefox icon ?

I downloaded firefox 4 and now it will only go to work offline how do I get on the internet

I cannot get on the interet. I downloaded firefox 4 and it says it will only work offline. where do I change this

'''rweeks''':
One of the changes in Firefox 4: '''''by default''''' Firefox 4 does not display the "Save Tabs and Exit" warning message when closing multiple tabs, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
*<u>Saving tabs was not removed from Firefox 4</u>, but it works a bit differently.
**By default, Firefox 4 will not ask to save tabs, but instead it will always save your tabs on exit. You can restore them next time by choosing "Restore Previous Session" from the History menu, or pressing the restore button on Firefox's default home page.
**''<u>Note: This was a decision by the developers. On this forum, we are all '''uncompensated volunteers''' here to help other users. The developes/employees of Mozilla/Firefox rarely, if ever visit here.</u>''
Also make sure you do not clear "Browsing History" when using Clear Recent History:
*https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Clear%20Recent%20History
To display the "Save Tabs and Exit" message when closing multiple tabs, you can do the following:
#Type '''''about:config''''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
#Accept the warning message (promise to be careful)
#The preferences page/list will open
#Filter = '''''browser.tabs.warnOnClose'''''
#If its value is set to false, double-click on it (in the lower panel) to toggle its value to true
#Repeat steps 4 and 5 for these following 3 preferences also:
#*'''''browser.warnOnQuit'''''
#*'''''browser.warnOnRestart'''''
#*'''''browser.showQuitWarning'''''
#**Note: last pref is new in Firefox 4b12, may need to add (boolean)

I have a Mac running OS 10.5.8. I downloaded Firefox 4 and not the program will not open at all. I am also unable to download the previous version that was running fine. I'm using Safari to contact you.

I have a Mac G5 running OS 10.5.8. I downloaded Firefox 4 and now the program will not open at all. I get an error message that reads --
"You cannot open the application 'Firefox" because it is not supported on this architecture."
I am also unable to find a link to download the previous version (3.6) that was running fine. (I'm using Safari to contact you.)

Same proble here, although the Firefox system requirements says it is OK to have PowerPC G3 G4 or G5 ( I have G5 2GHZ)
My solution; very simply use timemachine to restore the previous Frefox 3.x
worked great in 3 mns

I have just installed Firefox 6, and Rapport no longer works - the same problem that you had with Firefox 5. What is happening?

You prompted me to install Firefox 6 this evening, as it addresses serious security/stability problems, but when I did this, the Rapport icon vanished from the address bar. Reinstalling the current version of Rapport has not fixed this.
The same thing happened a few months ago with Firefox 5, and it took Rapport a week to develop a new compatible version.
Why has this happened again? Do you not check this before launching new versions? Or, why at the very least do you not warn us beforehand that some programs will not work for X days? I'd prefer to be without the latest Firefox for a week or so rather than without Rapport - not least because my bank requires me to use Rapport.
Please advise ASAP.
