Firefox sucks and apparently so does this "support site"

So originally, Firefox 11 was annoying me by adding an unsolicited homepage to my tabs every time I start the stupid thing, demanding that I should update a variety of plugins that I don't need to disable but don't care to upgrade until I actually need to. I started a query about that.
Then this support site very "helpfully" decided to throw an error and delete my whole post.
I have no reason to upgrade Firefox and no reason to update or delete the 3 or 4 addons that Firefox keeps whining about. This thing is just a mongoloid following me around offering helpful advice about how tasty spaghetti is while I'm at work.
How do I make this idiot stop "helping" me?

this new "support site" really sucks.
a recent running thread was closed -
http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/938821
no idea why, it reflected my question which is still
unsolved there. wth am I supposed to ask a new question
choosing from pre-picked topics like in Ebay if its already
there? mozilla, our pal in the dark IE ages - now same
impatience and bossyness as MS?
anyway, it was nice to see in this thread that in the year 2013
many users are still on the good old 3.6.4 sniffing and esp. sync
free version. where an alternative flash player still gets you most of youtubes which made Adobe's bloat- and spyware redundant for
several years now.
mozillas - please stop giving answers nobody asked for and respect Netscape's heritage of a free '''AND''' independent browser at the
same time!

  • Same thing is happening to me. Adobe has not responded to anyone about this error. It appears that Abobe XI is not compatible with IE 11.  I do not get this error when I use Chrome or Firefox. Only IE 11 does this. I have tried clearing cache and cookies.

Only IE 11 does this. I have tried clearing cache and cookies. I even uninstalled and re-installed IE 11. It is still doing it.  I am surprized that a company like Adobe would just ignore our posts and leave us hanging this this.
    Error message is FAILED TO GET DISPATCH FROM IBRWSR2.  Then when you click on it the next error message says:  PHTML IS NULL. You have to click this error message twice and then the PDF finally loads. Happened every time
    Does anyone have a solution since Adobe will not respond?
    As a last resort I will try uninstalling the Adobe Reader XI and install Adobe Reader 10 instead. It seems to work ok. But when I try to install version 10 the Adobe site tries to install XI.  Any ideas?

    This error happens when I try to import into Dreamweaver. Sorry, I wasn't clear on that earlier.
    I thought maybe it was because I had saved my image as a png. So re-saved as a svg, still get the error.
    DO I have a setting is Dreamweaver CC that is wrong? Should I try this in Dreamweaver CS6? I might try that next.
    Why is this program so difficult? I know Flash. I know After Effects. I can work the timeline part just great. It's always in the export that I have problems.

  • I've installed iPhoto11 and when opening for the 1st time it says that needs to upgrade my library and it is doing this since yesterday. Is this right??

    I've installed iPhoto11 and when opening for the 1st time it says that needs to upgrade my library and it is doing this task since yesterday. Is this right??

    No. Quit and try again. If that fails again,
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • I am not able to login to my facebook account and error message reads "This web site does not supply ownership information." Please help

    I am not able to login to my facebook account and error message reads "This web site does not supply ownership information." Please help
    only title bar opens and nothing else....please help

    Normally, when you connect via http, the browser doesn't check for site identity, so I don't understand what's happening there.
    Do you have any security-related add-ons that force popular sites to use a secure connection, or claim to provide anonymous browsing?
    Were you making the connection on your own network or on a public network (e.g., school, coffee shop)? If it was a public network, maybe the error indicates that your traffic was being intercepted???
    Without hands on, this is a tough one to diagnose.

  • I am trying to change the Apple ID on my I phone and my Wife's I phone.  Is it possible to keep our contacts, calander, and photos by doing this?  We do not care about our music or apps.  Is this possible?

    I am trying to change the Apple ID on my I phone and my Wife's I phone.  Is it possible to keep our contacts, calander, and photos by doing this?  We do not care about our music or apps.  Is this possible?

    Photos should be copied to the computer and synced back via iTunes.  They are unrelated to the Apple ID unless you are using PhotoStream.
    Depending on how the contacts are synced the the device, chaging the Apple ID may wipe them.
    Why do you want to change the Apple ID?  If it's an email address change, simply change the email associated with the Apple ID.  Do NOT create a new Apple ID.

  • TS4006 when using iCloud between mac and pad, what does this mean - "your iPad will  no longer back up to your computer automatically when you sync with iTunes"

    when using iCloud between mac and pad, what does this mean - "your iPad will  no longer back up to your computer automatically when you sync with iTunes"
    DONT WORRY EVERYONE, FOUND THE ANSWER I NEEDED FROM ANOTHER POSTING - THANK YOU

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You don't need to do anything, you have chosen to back up to iCloud instead of iTunes.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.
