How do I get to the profile folder to change settings?

A spammer has taken control of my email. AT&T says I need to change my firefox profile settings but I can't find the folder. How do I get to the folder.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Last Thursday

Robert, if AT&T says that you need to change Firefox profile settings, you need not actually view the Profile folder. All you have to do is change the Firefox settings by clicking on '''Tools''' at the top of Firefox and then selecting '''Options'''. When you change the Firefox settings this way, they are automatically saved into your Profile folder.
In case you wish to reset your Firefox settings to what they were at the time Firefox was installed, please follow the instructions in this article: [[Resetting preferences]].
Anyway, just for your knowledge, you can view this article to find out how to locate your profile folder: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles#How_to_find_your_profile How to find your profile].

  • TS3988 my user name (email address) is no longer a valid email address.  How do I get around the verification stage or change my username to be my current email address?

    How can I change my user-name for ITunes?  My user name was my old work email address and is no longer valid. When I try to create an iCloud account, I am having trouble due to the fact that the username is not a good email address.

    How are you trying to do it ? You can change the rescue email address on your account by, from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 :
    Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
    Click "Manage your account"
    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    Click Password & Security
    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
    Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.
    You can then try using your current rescue email address as your primary email address - you may need to log out of that page and back in. Or you can then try changing the primary email address via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes
    If you have an iPhone, iPad and/or iPod Touch you may then need to log out of your account on them by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and log back in for the account to be 'refreshed' on it.

  • How do I get all the music on my IMAC in one folder. We have one IMAC and 3 sign ons. When add a song under one sign on it doesn't add to all 3 libraries.

    How do I get all the music on my IMAC in one ITUNES folder? We have one IMAC, with 3 sign ons for me and my 2 teens. When you add a song under one of the sign ons it doesn't add it to all 3 libraries. Before I updated to LION,  We had one main library with all the songs we bought, imported from cd's etc. Then any of the three of us could add it to our own IPOD instead of buying the song agin. It is one house, one IMAC. It was working fine under Leopard.

    The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
    It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

  • How can i get back the adobe creative cloud shared folder after I deleting it?

    How can i get back the adobe creative cloud shared folder after I deleting it?

    I think Adobe pulled the Creative Connect Desktop app until the new CC release next month. I just built a new PC and noticed it wasn't available in the app manager any more. On my other machines it isn't working anyway. In another post Adobe devs said they new it was down because thay were working out some server issues. It looks like they couldn't resolve them.
    I bought into the CC right from the beginning since I never buy my software outright but rather use a credit card. I thought that getting the whole master suite for $30 a month interest free was a great deal. Having all the software has been great, but it was over a year before we even saw a desktop syncing folder and noe it seens as though we are going to have server problems every time they upgrade the cloud leaving us to have to use the cluncky web interface during these sync blackouts.
    I can tell you Adobe better get it together cause ther starting to p*ss off a lot of loyal customers. It feels like were dealing with a cellphone company who only gives deals to the new customers and once you've signed the contract your screwed.
    Here is the link to whats going on

  • Relative path for Download directory folder.I created a firefox profile and i wanted to use this profile in multiple machines.I wanted to use a relative path for download directory with respect to the profile folder.I need this on Linux machines

    I have a use case where I need to use different download directories with different firefox profiles.I need to use this profiles in multiple linux machines.
    I need to have a relative path to my download directory with respect to the profile folder.
    Ex: I have a selenium test which opens a website and downloads it to my machine.I want this downloaded file to go into some specific folder relative to this profile folder.How do I do this??

    That is not a practically empty xinitrc - that file only needs one line: exec WM.  Other things are entirely optional, and some of them very useful, but I'd encourage you to stick with the simplest xinitrc that will do what you require.
    Is slim involved?  Probably.  That is the source of many problems.  But to start narrowing this down, I have 3 suggestions:
    1) temporarily (at least) change your inittab to default to runlevel 3 ... actually, is it currently set to 5 or 3? if it is currently 3 that would explain why slim doesn't start.
    2) at a tty in runlevel 3 use "xinit" instead of "startx".  Startx is fine most of the time, but it is essentially just a complex wrapper for xinit.  That complexity can often iadd useful functionality, but it *always* makes troubleshooting more difficult.  So for now just use a vanilla 'xinit'.
    3) remove dbus-launch from your exec line in xinitrc.  This is done by console-kit so it is redundant and potentially problematic.  Further BOTH of these are taken care of by slim, so I'd even suggest getting both a jump start on being ready for slim and simplifying troubleshooting by removing both of them.  Just make that line "exec openbox-session"
    Edit: adding one more:
    4) temporarily switch out openbox-session for openbox.  I suspect the reason feh's setting of the background is getting overridden is due to a script or setting in openbox's autostart settings - many of these are only invoked when "openbox-session" is called, while "openbox" starts *just* the window manager itself.

    I had uninstalled iMovie 10 after it was updated and decided to reinstall it but it won't update, iMovie 10 update is stuck at installed in my App Store account. How do I get it the update to revert to uninstalled so I can re-update iMovie 10 to 10.0.1? iMovie 9.0.9 (iLife 11) is still installed and working.

    What in particular didn't you like about Firefox 6?
    You can undo a lot of changes, either via changing settings or prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page or via extensions.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/common-questions-after-updating-firefox
    Do a clean reinstall of the version that you want to use.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    *Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • How do I get into the App Store for my mac mini ?

    How do I get into the App Store for my mac mini ?
    To get Apps FOR my mac mini NOT iPhone or iPad.

    BT ...
    Your profile shows you are running LIon v10.7 so you should be able to launch the App Store from your Apple menu > App Store, or from your Dock, or your Applications folder.
    If you can't locate the App Store, installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo) will reinstall the App Store for you.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.

  • For some reason, I cannot change my desktop background no matter how many times I delete the "active" folder.  It's as if it's locked.  Any ideas how I can fix it?

    Yes it sounds like you have a corrupted preference file.
    The setting you make in individual programs get saved to a Preference file in your Users/Library/Preferences folder.
    All you have to do is drag out the old file to the desktop, reboot and load the program and the preference file gets rebuilt without your preferences which you reset.
    For your case I beleive the preference file is
    com.apple.desktop.plist

  • How can I get newstand in a folder on a ipad2 ?

    How can I get newstand in a folder on iPad 2 ?

    I've done it on both my iPad and my Touch. what I do is put 3 icons next to each other. newsstand and two others. use the other two to make the folder, then grab  the newsstand the second the folder is made.
    Newsstand is totally nonfunctional when it's in the folder and it will crash your ipad (as in try to open it and it goes back to the home screen). ALso, it seems when you do any upgrades, Apple 'kindly' puts newsstand back outside the folder.

  • I downloaded pictures onto my iPhone from computer twice by mistake now when i uncheck/sync then check and sync again  i keep getting two lots of pics..how can i get just the one set again? thnx

    I downloaded pictures onto my iPhone from computer twice by mistake now when i uncheck/sync then check and sync again  i keep getting two lots of pics..how can i get just the one set again? thnx

    You're welcome.
    All photos transferred from your computer are stored in the iPhone's Photo Library regardless if you select a single album or folder of photos to be transferred or multiple albums or folders. The photos on the albums or folders of photos include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. The photos are not duplicated taking up double the storage space. This way you can view the photos in an album or folder of photos only by selecting the album or folder, or all photos in all albums or folders by selecting Photo Library.
    Makes more sense when transferring multiple albums or folders of photos which cannot be changed when transferring only a single album or folder of photos.
    The same applies with iTunes and music playlists. A song can't be in a playlist unless it is in the main iTunes library. Placing a song in a playlist does not duplicate the song.

  • How can I get back the other version of itunes?

    It was much easier to use and way more confortable, How can I get back the other version of itunes? It was much easier to use and way more confortable
    I can't pass playlists from itunes to my i-pod, and the sthetic of the new itunes is not a good one.
    Could I get back an older version? those were easier to use, more simplier

    Apple wisely leaves a copy of iMovie version 9 installed in the Application folder when you download version 10.

  • How can I get back the Web Clip widget in Dashborad?

    Dear all,
    I accidentally deleted the Web Clip widget together with the Web Clip.wdg in Library/Widgets/ folder by AppCleaner some time ago. Now I cannot use this function to clip content in pages. I have the widget icon in Safari and can crop the webpage without problems, but after I did this action, nothing appeared or happened in the Dashboard since the original web clip widget file is gone.
    I would like to know where and how I can get back the Web Clip.wdg file so that I can perform the Web Clip function again?
    I just saw a user who posted a similar topic on Dec 28, 2008 and his/her problem is solved. I have this same problem like his/hers.
    I would appreciate if anyone can help me, thanks!

    Hi,
    Thank you very much for your help.
    I have tried to use Time Machine to get back the Web Clip but still couldn't, and very strange is when I click Time Machine, I can only choose Windows Applications as the back up disk but not Macintosh Applications, so I cannot restore anything from Macintosh applications.
    I think the best is if anyone has this widget on their Mac and can kindly send it to me by e-mail?
    I would appreciate it so much.

  • I can't seem to get rid of OR use Adobe Reader after I let it into Safari 7.  How do I get to the point where Reader is not my preferred anything, but can still be used if Preview won't open something?

    I can't seem to get rid of OR use Adobe Reader after I let it into Safari 7.  How do I get to the point where Reader is not my preferred anything, but can still be used if Preview won't open something?

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • How can i get rid of other folder on ipad

    how can i get rid of other folder on ipad

    You can't remove the "other" section on your iPad, iTunes and the iOS need this folder to store data during syncing for example, damaged data and for all things, that you can't access on your device.
    You can reduce the size by restoring, if the folder grows to more than 1GB due to problems when you sync or download apps or photos.
