How do I get Firefox to signal me when a new email arrives?

Is there a speaker toggle on-off switch somewhere that I can turn to have Firefox alert me to new emails when they come in?

You can try the WebMail Notifier add-on which can inform you when email arrives in web based email accounts - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/webmail-notifier/

How do i set up my iPhone to chime when a new email arrives? right now, the chime only works after I tap the mail icon

How do I set up my 4S phone to chime when a new email arrives? Right now, the chime only sounds after I tap the mail icon. I need an alert to check my mail. Comcast mail. Settings for mail set at "fetch new data". Thank you

Try if this works for you
1. Tap Settings on Home Screen
2. Go to Mail, Contacts, Calendars
3. Tap on Fetch New Data
4. Turn "Push" to On
5. Back to Mail, Contacts, Calendars again
6. Under "Advanced", make sure that it is set to "Push" for all your mail accounts
Push means the server will literally push the mails to your iPhone whenever there is new mail. Fetch like the word says is where you have to manually update to receive new mail (what you are doing now)

I use an email client that notify's you when a new email arrives in your inbox. On IE a window pop's up to let you know whith a chime. In Firefox the window opens but with no chime. Is there an extention or add on that will do this?

Is the notifier part of the email program? Is it an independent program like poptray? If it is separate from Firefox, it really shouldn't matter which browser you are using. Unless the notification is within IE.

How do I get the iPhone 4s to read a new email that I just recived, while I am driving?

Hi: don't know if this is possible, but, when I am driving and I don't want to have to "read" an incoming email, how I do get the iPhone 4S to actually say out loud what's in the email? does voice over work on emails ? thanks!

While the phone is connected to iTunes, select the phone in the device pane, go to the Music tab in iTunes and just select to sync selected playlists and just select the one play list.

How do I get Firefox to stop crashing when opening?

I've been using Firefox for years but now it keeps crashing when opening and all I get is the Crash Report Dialog Box. I'm using version 3.6.12. Downloading it again does not help. Most important is getting back in to save my bookmarks. Some of the FAQ's mentioned creating a a new profile to get around the crash problem, but doesn't that mean Firefox has to be running to get to the Profile Manager?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
Firefox doesn't need to be running to access the Profile Manager to create a new profile.<br />
So if you didn't manage to start Firefox in Safe mode then you can try the other suggestions in these articles.

How do I get firefox to save tabs when I quit the program? This doesn't appear to be available in 4.0

On previous firefox version, when I quit the program, a prompt would ask me if I wanted to save tabs. That doesn't appear to be happening with 4.0 upgrade. Can I still save and quit?

One change in Firefox 4 is to by default stop Firefox displaying the warning message, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''

How can I get Firefox to show videos when I visit websites that have videos? None of the videos play or is visible, even though I can hear the audio. However, I don't have that problem when I use Internet Explorer.

I'm using a PC with Windows 7 OS.

Hi Marcos140,
I would like to help, but is very hard to diagnose with so little information...
Do you know why you needed the bridge in the first place?
Is your laptop connecting via wireless or a wired connection?
Please try this:
#Click start
#Type cmd
# Push Enter
#A black box will open
# type in "ipconfig /all"
# Screenshot the output
# type "ping google.com"
# Screenshot
If you can post the output of those commands it will help.
Thanks,
Curtis

I am trying to delete my icloud account on my phone. Its wanting me to sign in with an old apple id that is an old email that is no longer active. How do I get it to let me use my new email address?

I just got a new iphone 5C. I am trying to clear my old phone and delete the icloud account. BUT on my old phone in the icloud settings it is still wanting to use an old email account that is no longer active, therefor it wont allow me to sign in and delete the icloud account. and it wont let me change my email address to my apple id that is current. suggestions?

Go to Settings, and then turn iMessage and FaceTime on if they are off. If they are on, then turn them both off, restart the phone, then turn them back on.
Go back to Settings > iCloud. Whether the current or old email address is displayed there, try your current password.

How do I stop automatically switching to calendar when a new invitation arrives?

In Mac OS Mountain Lion, whenever I receive an invitation via email, the OS automatically switches to Calendar once Mail has passed it over. This means that when I'm typing a note, my Mac suddenly switches to Calendar without any warning. This is incredibly annoying.
I have already gone into each of my calendars and ticked the "Ignore Alerts" option - but the problem still remains. I am reluctant to deselect the option in Mail to pass invitations to Calendar automatically, because then I'd miss lots of appointments.
Is there anything else I can do to stop this behaviour?

Hmm. OK. You have to appreciate I'm hypothesizing here. I don't use iCal and I'm not entirely sure what that switch does, but if you're game for a bit of (safe) experimenting, read on.
What I'd like to know is whether reversing that switch gets you the desired behaviour. If it doesn't, we'll just switch it straight back.
1. The switch is only a preference setting and can't cause any harm to your data or machine. Even so, it's always a good idea to backup your system before you mess with anything in case of unpredictable results, so please do that before trying any of the following.
2. Once you've backed up, copy and paste the following into Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.iCal NSDontMakeMainWindowKey YES
Press 'return' on your keyboard.
3. Restart the mac (you MUST do this).
4. Arrange (or wait) for someone to send you an iCal invitation or event and see what happens. If the same behaviour occurs OR you notice any unusual/undesirable behaviour of iCal in the meantime, put the preference back to the default by using the same command as above, but replacing the 'YES' with 'NO' and then restart the mac again.
Obviously, on the other hand, if it solves the problem, leave the preference as it is and let us all know so we can pass it on to others.

How do I get firefox to up date from a standard user account....or at least tell me to log on as administrator and update?

I do almost all my work from a standard user account. Firefox neither automatically updates (as I set it to) or informs me an update is available.
How do I get Firefox to update automatically when I am logged on as a standard user....or at least tell me to switch to admin account and update?

Let me add a note to the developers: WE ARE ALL NOT ADMINISTRATORS!
Even on our own personal computers.
I claim that administrator accounts are for administering, or developing; not using. I wouldn't be an administrator for longer than is necessary than walk down the centre of a highway with my eyes closed.
I'll repeat: Mozilla really should prevent the 'Update' button showing to an ordinary user if it's not going to be possible to use it.

How do I turn off auto focus/open/maximize when new email arrives?

If I have mac mail minimized, when a new email arrives, it automatically maximize/open it and focus on the mail window.
This is really annoying. It started happening with recent updates. Is there a way to turn this 'feature' off?
thanks.

How does one disable auto-opening a blank document (either open blank OR template chooser) when PAGES launches?
You can't. You will always get a new document or the template chooser depending on what you have set in the preferences. I suggest you leave feedback for the Pages team regarding this. You can find it under the Pages menu > Provide Pages Feedback. That takes you to the same page as this link.

If the purchases are all from the same account then you can share the content by authorizing each device.
If you have separate accounts then you have to be authorized to use the content purchased from another account.

I've down loaded adobe flash player but when I try to veiw video on firefox I'm still told that I need adobe flash player. How do I get firefox to see the flash player download?

I was trying to view a video I uploaded to facebook using firefox. The system told me to down load adobe flash player. I did but still get the message that I need to down load flash player. How do I get firefox to see the down loaded adobe flash player?

by installing from within Firefox, Internet Explorer has its own version (Active-X).
Make sure you are starting in the correct place for Flash
* http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
If you want to read PDF files in you browser, you might also want
* http://get.adobe.com/reader/
After the download,
#bring up the download manager ("Ctrl+J") and start your installs. As soon as the install comes up,
#close Firefox with '''File > Exit''' or "Firefox" button > Exit. Give Firefox some time to close.
#If install does not proceed, '''terminate "firefox.exe"''' and '''"plugin-container.exe"''' from the "Processes" tab in the Windows Task Manager.
#* Windows 7 shortcut to the WTM is "Ctrl+Shift+Esc"
#* or on any Windows system from "Ctrl+Shift+Esc" then choose Windows Task Manager.
#*Make sure that "firefox.exe" is no longer running -- if it is still running then terminate it by selecting the use "End Process" button or from context menu, and do the same for "plugin-container.exe" if it is found there.
#proceed with the install.
'''Warning''': this is the Adobe site and they have chosen to to provide crapware along with their own product. Only install the product you were planning to install. Do not install additional products: including -- "Free! McAfee Security Scan Plus" or "Google Chrome". Installing Google Chrome on your own and installing it because it is offered on the Adobe site are two different things.
Find updates for your installed plugins at http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/ mozilla.com/plugincheck
-- best to use Adobe's site to really see if their plug-ins are up to date.
Please fix your caps lock or read what you type, do you think anybody could read my answer if I typed in all caps.
If the above fails to correct the problem, I would try uninstalling Adobe Flash from your system entirely first, from the control panel then "Programs and Features".

When a tab is close, firefox next shows the tab to the right. How do I get firefox to show the tab to the LEFT of the closed tab?

I have 3 tabs open named 1, 2 and 3. If I close tab 2, Firefox will automatically show tab 3. How do I get Firefox to show tab 1 instead of tab 3? Basically, move to the left instead of the right?
I searched about:config using words like: tab, open, close, next, left and right and compared the results on
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_:_FAQs_:_About:config_Entries to get a good idea of what each entry did. Learned a lot and reconfigured other aspects of Firefox in the process! But, I would really like to alter the way Firefox processes tab closures.
Thank you.

You can look at these extensions:
*Tab Control: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1480
*Tabberwocky: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/14439
*Tab Mix Plus: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/1122

How do I get Firefox to remember two usernames and passwords for att.yahoo?

Firefox remembers one username and password, does not auto-fill-in the information (which is good), but will not ask to remember the second username and password. How do I get Firefox to remember the second username and password?
I have two e-mail accounts which use the same login page, one account is sbcglobal and the other is yahoo. I would like Firefox to remember both sets of information so I don't have to type all the username and password information for one account.

* Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode
* You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
