Hey, Dynamite !
Thanks so much for that ... what a 'dynamite' solution. It's so easy. I don't know how you people know all of these things ! But one last thing if you can help me - I've just switched over to Mozilla/Firefox from I.E., and now I cannot open my Hotmail from Mozilla/Firefox. I log in, it goes to my 'Inbox' page, but when I click on an Email letter to open it, nothing happens. I can't even go into 'Drafts' or 'Delete' or anything.

  • How do i put a music icon on my iphone

    how do i put a music icone on my iphone

    Are you asking about a music icon instead of an "iPod" icon?
    If so, you need only to upgrade your iOS software.
    In iOS 5 Apple renamed iPod to music and in addition created a separate "videos" app, making iPhone consistent with iPod Touch and iPad devices.

  • How do i put the new icons for iworks on the toolbar

    how do i put the new icons for iworks on the toolbar

    I think you must mean the Dock (at the bottom of the screen typically).  You should be able to simply drag them from the Applications Folder to the Dock- same as anything else.
    I don't think they can be put in the Toolbar (which is on top of the screen).

    i cant get firefox to put a website icon onto my desktop with out it going to generic

    Me, too!
    My desktop is covered with Firefox logos.
    If Microsoft can handle it, then so should Firefox.
    Since I drag the website logo, on to the desktop, why does it 'convert' to Firefox?

    What you should see on a restart is a black screen followed by a screen with the Apple (at which point you let go of the two buttons). There is no progress bar, just the Apple. The Apple will stay there for 15 seconds or so, then the "Slide to Unlock" screen will redisplay.
    But, I don't think the reset will fix it for you. I just tested it, and it comes back on with the zoom still on. The only way to get it to zoom out is the tapping with the 3 fingers.
    I said to double-tap....MY BAD! You need to triple-tap with three fingers!
    Try that and see if it will display the zoom menu for you, or if it will zoom back out.

  • When I put a website Icon on my desktop, how do I make firefox use the Icon native to that website instead of the default Firefox Icon?

    When I drag and drop a website onto my desktop, how can I make Firefox use the icon native to that website instead of the default firefox icon?
    I have even gone painstakingly (SEVERAL TIMES) to the sites with IE, dragged the site onto my desktop in order to obtain the site native icons for my desktop (and deleted the ones with the Firefox icon) .... but they all soon revert to the default Firefox icon.
    E X T R E M E L Y F R U S T R A T I N G !!!!!!!!!

    I don't want icons from the Firefox library.
    I want the icon that comes from the website I'm making the shortcut for.
    (If you go to a site in IE you will see the site generated icon at the left end of the URL in the address field.)
    If I make IE my default browser I am able to get (and keep) those icons as shortcuts on my desktop without a problem.
    I want to keep Firefox as my default browser.
    So I want to know how to make Firefox accept the icon that comes from the website like IE does.
    I have even gone to the trouble to use IE to create the shortcuts with the site specific icons.....but after I do that...... FIREFOX CONVERTS THEM TO THE FIREFOX DEFAULT ICON as soon as I re-boot or refresh my desktop.
    I generally prefer Firefox as a browser....but If there's no fix.....I'm going to dump Firefox.

  • How can I put a Network icon/link on desktop

    Hello,
    Is it possible to put a Network icon/shortcut on the desktop ?
    I know cmd-shift-k opens network, but is it possible to just create a shortcut on the desktop ?
    I don't mean a shortcut to specific network drives, I mean to the network in general.
    Thanks for your help !

    You can't make an alias to it but you can do it with AppleScript. Open the AppleScript Editor and paste in the following:
    tell application "Finder"
    activate
    tell application "System Events" to keystroke "K" using {command down, shift down}
    end tell
    Save it with a suitable name, as an Application, making sure that 'Run only', 'Startup Screen' and 'Stay open' are not checked. Now double-clicking it will open the Network window.

  • How do I remove the Skype icon from the desktop that is on my left on the taskbar ?

    Greetings to all, I have a Windows 7. 64--bit with SP--1. I have been unable, by searching, to find a way to remove the Skype icon from the desktop. It is on my left on the taskbar. Do I need to remove it in the registry ? If yes, how ? Thank you Ldxrunner

    Hi,
    Are you trying to remove Skype entirely, or just get rid of the tool tray icon?
    IIRC, you get that icon as long as Skype is running in the background.  There's a checkbox in Skype options that will keep it from running on startup.  That will eliminate the icon but you won't get notified for incoming calls.
