How can I block a site that keeps wanting to change my Java?

I want to block a site that keeps coming up wanting to change my Java program from "Oracle" Java to something else. Is there a way to block specific sites in Firefox?
I am running Windows 8.1 on a Toshiba laptop and have Firefox 25.0.1 Mozilla 26-1.0

hello Nglover1941, you have various adware addons present - maybe one of them is causing the issue. please try these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this wil keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to firefox > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

How can I launch a site that I designed for a client using their MobileMe account? Can they 'open' my iWeb files on their iWeb software?

How can I launch a site that I designed for a client using their MobileMe account? Can they 'open' my iWeb files on their iWeb software?

If you give them the Domain.sites2 file that iWeb used to create the site they will be able to open it with iWeb application (it has to be the same version as you have) and make changes. But if you're expected to also make changes you'll need a way to send that file back and forth between the two.
Also there's an online MacWorld article that describes a way that both of you could manage the site using Dropbox. Look at Managing an iWeb site from multiple Macs.

How can I block a number that calls me persistently every single day but only shows 3458 it does not show the full 10 digit

how can I block a number that calls me persistently every single day but only shows 3458 it does not show the full 10 digit so on your block page will not let me block it!!! So frustrated and I am not answering it with all the hackers out these days I don't want to give them access to my phone.

@lottsandy
I can understand your frustrations and concerns with receiving these unknown calls! I would love to assist you with preventing these types of calls.
Sounds as though you're receiving some type of telemarketing call. Although you're unable to add the shorter numbers to your call block list, you can definitely add your number to the National Do Not Call registry http://1.usa.gov/1whONxp. I hope this will help prevent those unwanted calls. Thanks!

Hi,
How do you connect the printer to the XP machine ? If USB, you need to make that machine as a Print server. Please try this:

How can I transfer a site that was made in iWeb to a new web design service? Please tell me I don't have to build again from scratch!!

I have a site that I update for a large group of educators. It has years of info and pages and it was all created in iWeb. It's a great site and people rely on it! I found out that iWeb is going away and I need to find a way to keep updating this site asap. Help!!
PS: IMO Apple should be making a web design app that supports the continuation of sites built in iWeb AND has the ability to update them with all the design features that they claim iWeb isn't equipped to handle instead of throwing us all out on the street. If this does exist, and I don't know it, please, someone tell me!

You don't need to upgrade to Mt Lion to use iWeb 3. It works fine in Lion and Mt Lion. Read the following for use if iWeb in Lion and Mt Lion.
In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

How can i republish a site that I had on mobile me?

I unfortunately didn't take Apple's warnings and let my account expire. I have a website that I need to keep up, but it's disappeared. Any suggestions?

You will need to find a 3rd party web host to upload your website to. Depending on the version of iWeb you are using you have a couple of publishing options:
iWeb '09 (3.0.4) you can publish to an FTP Server or a local folder
iWeb '08 you can publish your website to a local folder
I have been using IX Webhosting for several years with little to no problems "usually the problem was something I did" and they have been quick to solve any issue I have come across. The have plans that start at $3.95 a mo (USD) and their customer service is top notch.

How can I stop the advertisements that keep popping up when I open a new page?

I inadvertently clicked on an ad and now when I am on a webpage I see 2-3 advertisements that are slowing down my computer and making it difficult for me to navigate in the page that is opened. It is for this reasont hat I stopped using Google Chrome and now it is happening again. Very frustrating!

You can check for recently installed suspicious or unknown extensions.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

Bulleted lists - how can I use a bullet that I want

Having made the effort to switch to Pages, I'm beginning to find a number of features that make me long Word!
Some of the Pages interface design feels very rough -- like they just gave up before the end. Such an example of this is the relatively simple (in Word) task of making your own text bullet using a dingbat or symbol. This seems utterly impossible in Pages '09! I have spent over an hour struggling to get Pages to accept my preferred bullet. However, it refuses to allow any attempts I make change the bullet. It seems stuck in some font that is not correct for the bullet I want. But the bullet does not 'inherit' the font face attributes when you paste in your desired one.
I would like some details instructions (preferably from Apple -- chance would be a fine thing!) on how to select and enter my desired Wingdings character as a bullet.
As a last resort, I created a list in the style I wanted in Word (NOTE: a mere four minute job, Apple). I then tried to open the resulting .DOC file into Pages'09. But I guess it detected that I was attempting to circumvent its vice like control on MY lists, and so failed to open the document.
Any help with this matter would be gratefully received.
A.

Hi Andrew
Seems like you have noticed that Pages is not Word!
Ah, change can be hard.
First starting with the impossible (text bullet):
+Inspector > Text > List > Bullets and Numbering > Text Bullets/Image Bullets/Custom Image…+
*Text Bullets* lets you choose any Unicode character as your bullet, either selecting from the short list offered or by simply pasting in the character you want.
You can find the standard Unicode dingbats in:
+Menu > Edit > Special Characters > View: All Characters > Symbols+
Specialist fonts are here but will probably not display correctly if they are not Unicode.
+Menu > Edit > Special Characters > View: PiFonts > PiFonts > Font: If you have WebDings it will be here+
*Image Bullets* does exactly what it says taking any of the supplied images as bullets and scaling them accordingly.
*Custom Image…* lets you browse to find an image from your drive and use that scaled appropriately as a bullet.
You may have had problems using WingDings because it is not to my knowledge a Unicode font and its glyphs are arbitrarily located within the font according to older encodings.
You can get around this by making a text box typing your WingDings dingbat into it and then copying the box and going to the Preview application where by going command N you create a new .pdf file containing your textbox.
Trim the .pdf using the crop tool and save the .pdf which is now a graphic file and can be used with CustomImage… as a bullet.
It is best to make sure your graphic is tightly cropped to just the image itself and if it is too difficult in Preview, it is better done in a drawing program.
*Creating a list style in Pages* is as simple as creating an example of what you want then whilst selected adding it to your Styles in the Style Drawer:
+Menu > View > Show Style Drawer > click on the little down pointing triangle next to the List styles > Create New List Style from Selection+
I don't know what format you saved your word document in so can't comment on why or how it didn't open. Pages doesn't open Word templates for a start, there could be other reasons.
Now that did not come from Apple that came from your fellow users. As you may have noticed entering the forums, Apple puts up the site but does not frequent it.

How can I block/get rid of the "Browser Settings Change" window?

There is this window that pops up in the corner of FireFox that I have encountered before but now whenever I click an option it will not go away. I have to go to the preview windows on the FireFox icon and close it that way, but it keeps appearing every 20 minutes or so. I'm getting very frustrated since I can't seem to make it go away and I would like to know if I can block it.
I know it isn't my anti-virus because the window for it specifically appears as FireFox.
I have restarted my computer a few times as well and it didn't fix it.

Here is a screen shot of the window.
