IS THIS A GAME?
WHAT DETAILS DO YOU NEED?
THE COMPUTER HAS WORKED FINE
WITH THE OLD MOZILLA FIREFOX
FOR YEARS.
NO CHANGES HERE IN ANYTHING ELSE.

Click the Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Plugins and disable the following:<br><br>
* Fun Web Products Plugin<br><br>
* My Web Search<br><br>
Both of these are adware/spyware and cause performance issues in Firefox.
Next, click the Extensions menu link (above Plugins where you are) and remove the "Ask Toolbar".
If the problem persists, please do the following:<br><br>
#Click '''Help '''| '''Restart with Add-ons disabled'''.<br><br>
#In the next menu which appears, checkmark: "'''Reset toolbars and Controls'''".<br><br>
#Finally, click the button called "'''Make changes and restart'''".
Just in case you weren't aware of it, you can right click the Back or Forward buttons to get a list of sites visited. If you'd like to see the return of the arrow on the Back button, install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/
Last but not least, some of your plugins are seriously out of date which exposes your system to exploits. Please visit the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update where necessary.

    The only way you will be able to track that iPod is if it is turned on and connected to a wifi network by the person that has it.

  • I  have been having nothing but trouble with OS 10.6.8.  Many of my appliatins will not work..  HOw can I revert back to a previous version of OS x?

    I  have been having nothing but trouble with OS 10.6.8.  Many of my applications will not work..  HOw can I revert back to a previous version of OS x?

    Before you revert anything try this:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    Next time don't post something like "nothing but trouble." Tell us exactly what the trouble is and provide any additional information such as error messages.

  • My apple tv 2 says I can't stream music from my iTunes library on my iMac without settng up iTunes Match. I don't want to set up iTunes match. How can I get back to the pre-Match system which let me just use home sharing to stream music from computer to A

    When I click on the Music tab on my Apple TV 2, a message tells me I have to set up iTunes Match to stream music from my iTunes library on my iMac. I don't want to set up and pay for iTunes Match. How can I get back to the pre-Match system which let me just use home sharing to stream music from computer to Aple TV

    Ditto.
    You need to look for your itunes library under Computers and select it, then music.
    Music column is for web based content not local content, just to confuse everyone.

    Buy the songs that your friend put on the iPod that you liked. They had no right to give you the copyrighted music when they sold you the device.

  • How can I get back to the standard .TIFF viewer in my browser ?

    Hello,
    I have installed iTune on my PC. Since then I can no longer use the standard MSW picture viewer. This one allows me to rotate and resize pictures, and I cannot do this with QT. How can I get back ? I tried to use the "External module management" of my browser, but it was useless.
    Thanks for your help,

    Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • How can I go back to a previous version of software as iOS 5 has stopped car bluetooth working.

    I have an i-phone 3GS and a 56 Plate Ford Fiesta with factory fitted bluetooth audio.  This is a Nokia bluetooth but has allowed me to call hands free with this phone and previous i-phones and other brands with no problem.  I upgraded to iOS5 and I can now not make calls through it.  If I press call, the radio says 'dialling' but the ringing tone and when someone answers just goes straight back to the handset and not through hands free which makes it redundant in the UK.  I rang Apple and asked how to go back to a previous version of software that does work but was told Apple staff were not allowed to tell me how to do this.  His only other suggestion was that I buy a new car which wasn't massively helpful or practical.  I have seen quite a few messages on the internet of people having this sort of problem after they upgraded.  Does anyone know how to go back a previous version or how to get bluetooth back working with my car as I quite like the iOS 5 update it's just no good if I can't use it in car.? I've tried deleting and re-pairing but that hasn't worked.  Does anyone also know whether Apple have picked up on this bluetooth compatibility problem and whether they are planning on doing anything to fix it as it does seem to have affected a lot of people and if it can't be resolved I'll just have to stop using i-phones and go to another manufacturer as it's not helpful living in a country where you to have hands free and then not being able to do that because a software update prevents it.  Any help would be greatly received.

    Hi Shero89,
    Thanks for the answer.  I am not new to IOS software but I don't really ever bother with it, have discovered how little I take advantage of the i-phones capability, in reality I still only really use it to phone, text, check emails, listen to music and look on internet.  I'm not keen on jailbreaking it as I don't trust it to work so normally just update and leave it at that.  Only reason I wanted to downgrade was because the update had stopped my bluetooth working but Kilted Tim solved that problem for me so am now not interested in downgrading software.  I quite liked the things that IOS 5.1 gave me but wasn't happy with fact that bluetooth stopped working in car as it caused me problems.  One day I might try and work out exactly what I-phones can do but on the basis that it's a phone all I really want it to do is phone, if that bit works I'm happy.

    You can try Restoring it in iTunes. If that doesn't work you will need to get it serviced.
