How can/do I compeletely uninstall/delete unwanted "Web Developer Extension" that was automatically installed on my computer without permission when I reset Firefox in safe mode?
Reset Firefox in safe mode. Clicked 'Help', then "Restart with Add-ons disabled"
After restarting, Checked "Reset all preferences to Firefox default"
When done, found three new Tabs, one asking if I wanted to continue previous session, a second from Firefox, saying "Welcome to Firefox"
And a third with the heading, "Web Developer Installed"
Clicking on Tab took me to: http://chrispederick.com/work/web-developer/installed/11/ saying "The Web Developer Extension has been successfully installed"
The new website, which also asks for donations, doesn't look related to Firefox. Regardless, NO ONE ASKED MY PERMISSION to install
AM CONCERNED ABOUT UNWANTED EXTENSION AND WHAT ELSE IT MAY DO WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE OR CONSENT.
I DO NOT WANT Chris Pendrick's "extension" on my computer, but don't know how to completely delete/uninstall.
Can anyone help?

please how can I restore my ipod touch 2g from a firmware that I own already on my computer and without any time need to download via itunes
You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabilng the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
Next, authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account. In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials.
If possible, either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync. To do this, right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.

Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc. For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases. For all other nonpurchased iTunes content, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering different software availbable to assist you with this task.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier. Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.

How can I download Find My iPhone on iPhone 4 if it was never installed before? It requires ios8
How can I download Find My iPhone on iPhone 4 if it was never installed before? It requires iOS 8. I have read that it will download if a previous version is already installed on device, but it was never installed on mine.
Niel,
I'm feeling pretty foolish right now. I went into Settings, iCloud and found that Find My iPhone is there and enabled.
Thank you anyway for your reply.

I bought Say Hi Translate app. How can I change it to translate English to French? It's already installed and it now has Spanish/French after I tried several ways to change it, but originally it came up English to Spanish. Can you tell me how to get this changed? Thanks! JKA
Contact the support or FAQ/user guide for the app on the app creators website if available.

For example, Ctrl-T is grayed out / disabled so I can't open a new tab using the keyboard.
Ditto for ALL other keyboard shortcuts - they're all disabled / grayed out.
PS - I've used Firefox for years, this happened about a month or so ago, and it's been that way ever since, even after rebooting computer.'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem. -

How can I get a Mac to run a LabVIEW VI that was created for Windows? (it calls DLL files)
This is for a spectrometer. A motor controller is connected by serial and a lock-in amplifier is connected through GPIB. I have a Windows version of the VIs I need to get it all running, but I need to get it running on a Mac. The program was written in LabVIEW 6.0.1 and I have both version of 6.1. Is there a type of file that Mac uses that are similar to DLLs? Is this even possible? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
> Thanks for your help. The supplier of the VIs hasn't made a Mac

> Mac? I'm very interested in hearing the 'not necessarily easy' answer

You can open the VIs on a PC or Mac and double click on the DLL node.
It will show you the parameter info, the function name, path to the DLL,
etc.
If you have the source code to the DLL, then make it on the mac using
the Metrowerks CodeWarrior compiler. If you don't have the source, then
you need to either shift to using diagram nodes exclusively or come up
with some other way of replacing the DLL.
For the details on compiling a DLL, you should look at your manual that
came with CodeWarrior and look at the CIN Manual or search online for
something ...

How can I get 10.8 to recognize my home folder that was moved to another drive?
I installed an SSD in my MacBook Pro a while back and replaced the optical drive with a regular SATA hard drive and moved my user folder to the larger drive. Unfortunately, Moutain Lion didn't like that, I can no longer log in to my account (I am assuming the relocated user folder is the problem, perhaps it is not?). Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Are you able to log into the machine with a different account (like an administrator account)? If so, open Directory Utility (/System/Library/CoreServices/Directory Utility.app) and go to the "Directory Editor" tab, and select your user in the list on the left (the one that you moved to the second drive). What is the value for "NFSHomeDirectory" for that user? The upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion could have reset this value (since having home directories on drives other than the boot drive (I think) isn't supported). Have you tried reapplying the procedure you used to move your home folder to the secondary drive prior to the upgrade?

The old hard drive was operating on Xp and new hard drive is Windows 7, if this makes any difference.
Unfortunately there is no simple method and, the workaround is far from perfect. The .json files Firefox uses overwite the existing bookmarks but the .html option appends and does not overwrite.
First of all backup all bookmarks on each hard drive. The best method of doing that is to backup the Firefox profiles, that captures the bookmarks databases (''places.sqlite'') and the autobackups that Firefox holds.
* [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
#First ensure you have the largest databsae on the current install of Firefox. If necessary
##Locate the Firefox Profile on the old drive
##* [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data]]
##Open Firefox and find the profile that is currently in use.
##*Quick method <br/>Use FirefoxButton -> Help -> Troubleshooting Information [Open Folder] <br />(No certain of exact wordings, OR navigate to ''about:support'' )
##* [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
#Now use HTML backups to transfer from the smaller database the basic bookmarks.
## Close Firefox & if the old database is the largest one use the Operating System copy option to overwrite the existing places.sqlite so that Firefox now uses the old database
## Reopen Firefox but this time open using the old profile. The easiest method of that may be to disable the new drive from the Bios or alternatively use Firefox profile manager and register the old profile location and open firefox with that profile
##* [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]
## Export the bookmarks from the old profile using the Firefox Library and the HTML option.
##* see [[Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file to back up or transfer bookmarks]]
## Close Firefox, reopen new version/newprofile and import the HTML.
You now have the largest database of complete bookmarks with tags etc. , plus additional bookmarks from the smaller database added on. Obviously you may have some duplication -
How can I get smartart animiations to work in Captivate 7 that was imported from a powerpoint slide?
I am having problems getting the smartart animations to work. The shape animations work fine. Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Hi Guys,
I am having the same issue, only anytime I try to import a smartart animation I get an error message and Captivate quits.
I am using Captivate 7 64bit version 7.0.1.237 on Windows 7 pro 64-bit with MS Powerpoint 2007.
Steps
1. I create a new powerpoint project.
2. Create a new slide and add a SmartArt Object (Stacked Venn in this example)
3. Apply text labels to the Stacked Venn (I labeled as 1,2,3 and 4)
Note: Everything imports into Captivate properly at this point using high fidelity.
4. Click animations tab and add "animate one by one" (in my example I chose fade one by one)
Now try to import into Captivate with High Fidelity checked. Captivate produces the following error:
''A fatal error has occurred and the application is being terminated. Adobe Captivate has tried to save all your work in the respective project folders as ".cpbackup" files. Please restart Adobe Captivate"
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? -
The small "[Javascript Application] and balance.balance is undefined" pop up window is followed by a pop up that shows a caution sign and the number 3. They repeatedly pop back up when I click on the OK button or X, I must click them 10 times before they go away. Then Firefox seems to run normally until I exit and try to return later to Firefox.
I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it with no effect. I have also run any troubleshooter that seemed to remotely refer to this problem with no effect.
This does not happen when I load Internet Explorer or Google Chrome. Except for this problem, I much prefer Firefox over either one.hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, probably an addon is interfering here...

HT1212 How do I unlock a disabled ipod that was synced with a different computer?
How do I unlock a disabled ipod on a Macintosh computer that was synced with a different computer?
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.
If you sync with the new computer it will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with the selected content of the new computer.
The pics that you have taken with the iphone should be imported regularly to your computer as you would with any digital camera. You can then organize them and sync them back to the iphone if you wish.
If you have had itunes perform a backup on the new computer, you should get the pics taken with the iphone back, but I would import them before trying anything. -
How can iTunes-synched photos be deleted from iOS devices if the iTunes computer is no longer available?
This can happen because the iOS device is on travels distant from the iTunes computer, because the iTunes computer is on travels distant from the iOS device, because the iTunes computer has failed permanently, because the iTunes computer has been stolen, etc.KRDHarris-
The only possibility I can think of, is to consult with an Apple Store Genius. See if there is some kind of Apple proprietary software or diagnostic tool that can do it.
I do not think you want to, but you could go to Settings-General-Reset-Erase All Content and Settings. If you decided to do that, you might be able to restore from a previous backup when you get home.
