FF 8 doesn't like google alerts

I just upgraded from FF 7.0.1 to FF 8, and can get into google groups and google's blogger and gmail as before. But when I try to log into google alerts I get as far as entering my password, at which the login page simply refreshes, I've gone through the google troubleshooting rigmarole for this problem, but clearing the cache and the google cookies doesn't help. (I know hte google toolbar doesn't work in FF 8. I don't need it anyhow, but for now I've just left it disabled.)

You're welcome.
There's certain formatting option to choose too, I think it's Mac Extended (Journalled) is the way to go, but search this forum to make sure.
I freaked out too when I first moved over to Logic (about a month ago) from Cubase.
There are some great people on this forum who will help with all your questions. I've asked hundreds and this is the first one I have answered... finally feel like I am giving something back to the forum!
Good luck!
Cheers,
Mike

Hello, You mean you want to set Google as your homepage.
Please follow these steps
# Open the website you want to set as your home page ( ''in your case Open Google'' ) .
# Click the icon to the left of the web address, drag it to the Home button, and release ( See the attached Image ) .
# Click Yes to set this as your home page.
'''Try it out:''' Click the Home button and your new home page will load in the current tab. It doesn’t get much easier than that!
Please reply back to us.

Both Firefox & IE crash even when I have disabeled plug-ins. I have installed new version of Firefox and problem continues. Seems to be related to Flash, but not sure. Firefox will stay open if I go to a page like Google. Also crashes in safe mode.

Both browsers seem to crash when the web page wants plug ins to access pages. Simple ones like Google's home page, or these for example, work fine. I have run several scans with security software, including Malware (latest database), and they don't find anything.

The problem began because my computer had to be sent in because it wouldnt turn on so i had to get it fixed they replaced the motherboard this was the second time the motherboard was replaced and once they did that my firefox hasnt worked the same. I can go on google chrome but thats not what i prefer to use.
& when i right click on firefox it says troubleshoot so im assuming its built in to my computer. im not sure.
I tried the profile manager to create a new profile and that has seemed to work so far. No crashing but it does freeze when i got to facebook and then i have to click ctr alt delete to open task manager to end firefox. It happened twice, the third time i went to google, then twitter and it didnt freeze. I then went to youtube and it froze. So Facebook and youtube make it freeze. Any idea why it does that?
& thank you so much for helping and responding to me.

Opening a new link in a tab (contr+click or right click and open in new tab) causes ff to lose scroll position in first tab or main website, like google.

Opening a new link in a tab (contr+click or right click and open in new tab) causes ff to lose scroll position in first tab or main window, like google.
This does not happen when opening in a new window (shift+click).
It was never a problem in older versions. I now have ff 3.6.17. I' afraid to install ff4 because everytime i do so (install e new version) something i liked dissapears or good add ons dont work anymore!
I also don't like the fact that more and more of the adress barr is beïng used for crap i don't need. I'm a visual handicap and need all the space i can, just to read.
Thanks for helping me out.

I just bought an ibook pro and want to download a browser like google chrome which I am familiar with. Safari just seems to be a lot of icons for shopping and I would like to disable it and put something more functional in its place. How do I ?

I thought I just posted this question but maybe not. I'm going from a PC to an iBook and am trying to customize it. Can I add a browser like google chrome or even foxfire and disable safari? Safari jst seems to be an app store. Thnaks

It sound like you did something wrong. Try another download and install.
Download of Chrome
https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95346?hl=en
Direction to install
Download the installer file
Open the file called "Google Chrome.dmg" after it's downloaded.
In the window that opens, drag the Chrome icon to the Application folder. This installs Chrome for all user accounts on your computer. Your home page settings and browser history will automatically be imported from your default browser.If you don't have administrative rights, drag the icon to a location on your computer where you do have rights, such as your Desktop. Chrome will only be installed for your user account.
The first time you open the browser, the Finder will ask you to confirm that you want to open the application downloaded from the Internet. Click Open to continue.
You'll see a message letting you know that you can search with Google directly from the address bar (also known as the omnibox). If you'd like to change yourdefault search engine, click Change.
Unmount the Google Chrome disk image on your Desktop by dragging it to the Eject icon in the Dock. (Make sure you're dragging the disk image and not the Google Chrome application icon.)

Ed,
There are a number of ways to do this. Your phone number consists of all numerals, yet isn't a numeric value, but rather a text value. Numbers doesn't know that, so it treats it as a numeric value and strips off what it feels is an unnecessary leading zero.
You have there options:
Format the cells as Text prior to making the entry.
Leave the cells as a Numeric value format, but choose Custom Format to set the number of displayed places and choose to display leading zeros.
Use the Numeral System Format and set it to base 10, displaying 9 digits, or whatever you need.
There are ways to convert a number to text and add required leading zeros with a formula too, but it's needless work.

MP3-Library doesn't like some of MediaSource's ID3 t

Just a tip for MP3-Library users:
On rare occasions, MediaSource 3.30.2 will produce an ID3 tag that MP3-Library doesn't like. (This is pretty rare -- out of 45 tracks I updated the tags on, 6 did this.) This results in the file being displayed as corrupted. If you select "Analyze/Fix MP3," it finds a frame or two with random specifications at the very start of the file, followed by a single bad frame, and then all good frames.
If you check all availiable fix options (delete selected frames [check the junk and bad ones], delete garbage before st frame, delete garbage after last frame), it lops about 30 bytes off the end of the tag/header and takes a few good frames off the start of the file.
According to MP3Utility and EncSpot, there's nothing wrong with the files, and they play just fine in MediaSource, Winamp, and on the Zen. The header data that was destroyed doesn't affect the ID3 data. It only seems to have removed the Xing header. (No, I don't use Xing. LAME 3.97 alpha puts Xing-compatible headers on its VBR files.)
The following are the summary data that MP3Utility shows. This is from the original file, fresh out of LAME:
File size: 3,63,232 bytes
Offset to first frame header: 2,630 bytes
MPEG version .0; Layer III
Bitrate: VBR (Xing); Sample rate: 44,00 Hz
Channel mode: Joint stereo
Private: No; CRCs: No; Copyrighted: No
Original: No; Emphasis: None
Frame size: ,52 samples/frame
Frame length: 47 bytes/frame (unpadded)
Pad size: byte(s)
Estimated frames: 8,945
Estimated time: 3:54 (234 secs.)
This is after importing the file into the PC Music Library and clicking "Update Tag." I didn't modify anything, just told it to re-write the ID3 tag:
File size: 3,63,232 bytes
Offset to first frame header: 2,630 bytes
MPEG version .0; Layer III
Bitrate: VBR (Xing); Sample rate: 44,00 Hz
Channel mode: Joint stereo
Private: No; CRCs: No; Copyrighted: No
Original: No; Emphasis: None
Frame size: ,52 samples/frame
Frame length: 47 bytes/frame (unpadded)
Pad size: byte(s)
Estimated frames: 8,945
Estimated time: 3:54 (234 secs.)
And this is after MP3-Library "fixed" it:
File size: 3,629,325 bytes
Offset to first frame header: 2,600 bytes
MPEG version .0; Layer III
Bitrate: 224 kbps; Sample rate: 44,00 Hz
Channel mode: Joint stereo
Private: No; CRCs: No; Copyrighted: No
Original: No; Emphasis: None
Frame size: ,52 samples/frame
Frame length: 73 bytes/frame (unpadded)
Pad size: byte(s)
Estimated frames: 4,96
Estimated time: 2:0 (30 secs.)
No, MP3-Library DIDN'T chop 04 seconds off the file. The estimated frame count and length are WRONG because the Xing header was destroyed by MP3-Library. This header would normally tell MP3Utility how long the file really is, otherwise it takes the bitrate of the first frame and extrapolates that over the file length. (Without this header, many programs' progress sliders won't be as accurate.)
So, if MP3-Library tells you a file is corrupted after going through MediaSource and the file wasn't corrupted before, DON'T fix it. You'll only make things worse. I've never seen MediaSource or my Zen actually damage a file.
(At first, I told it to fix 'em. Now I'm going through and restoring the backups it made.)

i have used mp3-libary many times before because it said a large amount of my collection was corrupted. but it seams to be better.as i havent used media source to import them so i think they may have actually be corrupt. but interesting findings.

My table:

 177 china skyjumper,sky jumper,poweriser,powerskip,power shoes,flyjumper,jumping stilts
SQL> Thanks & best regards

Google uses a very sophisticated search algorithm, so I think you'll be a little pushed to replicate that or get anyone on the forum to do it for you.
You may be able to get something from using Oracle Text, if that suits your needs.
Alternatively, if you're looking to write your own thing then you would need some way of parsing the question and ignoring certain common words that you're not interested in, picking out just the words you want and then searching the relevant columns for those words.
Here's a very basic example:
SQL> ed

Automatic Set up of Google Alerts in Siebel

Hi
How can we Set-up of Google Alerts to Provide Updated Information(Public Domain Info) in Siebel
Is there any possibility to do this?
If so, Plz Need info Regarding this
Thanks & Regards
Prasad

the fast/automatic recovery (fast master catchup) is only possible when (a) you are using 2-safe replication (which you are) and (b) log fail threshold has not been triggered (by the way a value of '1' for this is extremely low!).
If either of conditions (a) or (b) are not met then you have to recover via a 'duplicate'.
