Each time I open an email the Bing ad covers the screen and although I've changed my Search preference I can't get rid of it. How???

This began happening, every time I opened my email, several months ago. I changed the Bing search preference to Google and it disappeared. It appeared again 2 days ago. I again replaced the Bing search preference with Google, but still the Bing ad covers my email every time I open it in Firefox. I would like to get rid of Bing permanently.

Can you post a screenshot?

I have an iBook g4 14" 1.42 ghz. I recently installed a new hard drive. I put the install CD in. Then, I pressed the power button, then the "C" key. Black screen and No chiming. Please tell me, what I can do to resolve this? What is the problem with it?

Since it will not boot then a hardware test can't be run. You could try FireWire Target Disk Mode and if it works then access from another Mac to run tests on the new drive. You could also try installing the OS X software from the host computer. If this does not work then professional help should be considered.

I downloaded a reader file and it screwed up my Safari browser and the app opens with the Goggle Quick search which I can't get rid of

I downloaded a file to open a owners manual for a camera I needed. I had difficulty getting it down loaded and never could get the manual. I tried using my Safari browser and started getting this Goggle Quick Search file which opened in place of my Safari….I tried to close it and I can't. I did manage to get ride of the reader file.

You may have installed one of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
Back up all data before making any changes.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates
if it's not already checked.

I keep getting the " firefox is up to date " screen after updating, it usually only occurs once , but i can't get rid of it.

Every time i access the net two screens come up, one with my home site and the other with "Firefox is up to date", usually the later disappears after the first use, but it now stays there every time i try to use the net

Thank you for your assistance. It was a corrupted preference file and your post resolved my problem. I have had a number of problems with preference file under lion.

I tried to add on a Zotero integration app. It didn't work. Now each time I open Firefox it tries again to integrate the app and I get an error message.

Here is the error message when I open up Firefox and it tries again to install the Zotero integration app: (I only have Word 2011)
Installation could not be completed because an error occurred.
[Exception... "'Neither Word 2004 nor Word 2008 appear to be installed on this computer. Please install Microsoft Word, then try again. @[install:install.m:140]' when calling method: [nsIRunnable::run]" nsresult: "0x8057001e (NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)" location: "JS frame :: resource://zotero-macword-integration/installer.jsm :: <TOP_LEVEL> :: line 67" data: no]

Hello,
If Zotero was installed as a Firefox Add-on then please disable or remove it. That should stop the error message. See more info on how to remove add-ons here:
[[Disable or remove Add-ons]]
If this doesn't work then you should try starting Firefox in safe mode. See whether the error message appears when in Safe Mode and let me know. See here for more info on how to get into Safe Mode:
[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]

Type password each time I open my email Account ?

Is there a way to type in my email password whenever I click on the email icon rather than just click and all your emails show up?

No. You have to provide a password when setting up the account. Putting in no password will not let you setup the account, removing it after creating the account doesnt do anything, and changing it to a wrong password basically makes email not work anymore.

Do you have any Sidebar-related extensions installed?
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

Message displayed each time I open a report (IE10)

Hello,
Each time I open an Analysis for OLAP, I face the message Critical rendering error.
It appears since we desployed the 10th version of internet explorer.
Exact version of IE is 10.0.14.
Our BO platform is BO 4.1 SP2 patch 4 (very recent version).
Do you know how to solve this issue ?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards,
Bertrand

Hi Bertrand Demeyre
As of my understanding, IE 10 is not supported for Analysis edition for OLAP (and the same has been documented in the support document).Probably, it might come as an additional enhancement in future service packs.
I am not sure if we have a solution to suppress the error message.
An work around would be to push down to IE9 instead of IE10 (if possible).

Although I have Igoogle as my home page when I open Firefox it comes up as somoto. How can I get rid of this.

My home page on Firefox only has been changed to somoto. I can't get rid of it. Have run scans for malware and viruses with more than one program and has eliminated any bad stuff. I cannot find the word somoto anywhere in my computer. My regular home page comes up in IE and Chrome.

This worked for me:
open add/remove programs and uninstall every toolbar you see that you don't know exactly what it is. The trojan or virus ... whatever it is can hide itself in another name. it happened to be "burn4free" toolbar when i downloaded burn4free a few days ago. I uninstalled it, restarted my computer upon prompt, and VOILA! no more annoying homepage. Like i said, it may be renamed so make sure to do some trial and error if you're not sure which one it is. GOOD LUCK!

Why do I get the box 'this is a non-secure form' every time I open an email on yahoo?

Why do I get 'this is a non-secure form' every time I open an email on my Yahoo account?

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Security tab.
Deselect: Warn when visiting a fraudulent website
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Privacy tab.
Select: Prompt for each website one time only
Then quit and relaunch Safari to test again.

Probably far too old to register. Sounds like a bug, stopping the "never" selection from working. You may be stuck with it.

How do I set the screen zoom, so that it doesnt change each time I open Firefox. Because I see the webpages in smaller print, and I want them larger , without having to re zoom each time I open Firefox.

I need to know how to set the zoom option under "View" Tab, shere I dont have to re zoom each time I open Firefox. I have a wide screen monitor and generally, when viewing webpages, the web content on any page is confined to center of the page, and I was wondering if there was anyway to permanently set the zoom preferences without having to change them each time i open a webpage.
IE 8 and 9 has a feature to set the magnification and i set mine to 150% which works perfectly for me. I wonder if Firefox has a similar feature.

Thanks a lot. I downloaded the Default FullZoom Level add-on. My problem is now a history. thanks a million

HOW TO STOP THE PROMPTING MESSAGE OF MASTER PASSWORD EACH TIME I OPEN MOZILLA FIREFOX?

HOW TO STOP THE PROMPTING MESSAGE OF MASTER PASSWORD EACH TIME I OPEN MOZILLA FIREFOX?

Firefox will ask for the Master Password on startup if it is needed on a page.<br />
This can be Sync or a web page that is (re)opened automatically and you have saved a name & password for this website.
You didn't confirm whether you are using Sync or not, so I don't know which of the two would apply.
