How do I turn firefox off and back on so I can do a download
I am trying to download an adobe flash player update and it is requiring me to turn off firefox before it will complete. how do I shut it off?
Click the three line hamburger menu button then click Exit
Open the Flash installer file you downloaded and follow the instructions.
After installing Flash, start up Firefox again.

Someone has hacked my things, how do I turn wifi off, and when will it be safe to go back on? Also, do I need to reset everything? I have already changed passwords, covered my webcam, etc. Will they still have access to my computer?
Could you explain what you mean by 'Someone has hacked my things'?
What Mac do you have, with what version of OS X?
What security do you have on your wi-fi? -
My iPhone 5s won't charge, unless I plug into the charger and turn it off and back on again? How do I fix this problem?
Try cleaning out the phone's connector. Else take it in to Apple, you have a 1 year warranty.

The screen on my ipod touch is stuck zoomed in. I don't know how it happened I just looked down and it was like that. I have turned it off and back and even reset it but it still keeps zooming back in each time I turn it on. I can't unlock it because I can't see the numbers and it won't let me move around the screen. Please help.

In setting up my AppleTV it asks me to turn on "Home Sharing" on my computer. It is already ON. I have turned it off and back on several times. Rebooted the computer, rebooted the AppleTV. But the same message is up and stops me from progressing to the next stage.
How can I access "Home Sharing" when it won't turn on?Hello EagleyeMe,
Congratulations on your new Apple TV. I am sure you are eager to get it setup. I recommend following the steps in the article below to troubleshoot Home Sharing:

my iphone froze so i turned it off and back on again and it has been stuck on the apple sign since 9pm lastnight how do i get it to work again?
What version of OS X are you running? If your MBP came with an installation disc, try booting from it and using Disk Utility to verify and, if needed, repair your hard drive. If you're running Lion or Mountain Lion and your computer didn't come with an installation disk, try holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting and try Disk Utility.

I have a Seagate Freeagent 1TB external drive that ejects it's self in the middle of the time machine backup, then disappears and can't be found unless I turn it off and back on again. Any ideas?
Hmmm.. sorry to jump in but...
I Wish I had seen this before I got mine.
Mine has been doing this auto eject stuff too.
I think I just plugged it in and TM let me select it but is it possible
I should have reformatted it with DU first, like with all the WD drive problems ?
Is it too late for that ?
Or just try to return it or get rid of it ?

I bought a new MacBook Pro several months ago. I keep losing my wireless connection (my wife, sitting several feet from me has no problem with her iPad2). I find the quickest fix ix to turn Airport off and back on. Very annoying. Suggestions please?
What kind of wireless router are you using? more importantly which protocol are you connecting with? Are you and wife connecting using the 2.4Ghz band? or do you have a dual band router that offers the 5GHZ band? Are you both connecting vie 802.11 a/b/g or n?
The best thing to do is to go into SYSTEM PREFERENCES and select NETWORK, then select AIRPORT and click on the ADVANCED button.
Under the AirPort tab you should delete all the preferred networks and only add back in your network with the proper security settings and passwords.
If you hold down the option key on your keyboard while clicking on the airport icon at the top on your macbook pro. you'll seesome data that will tell you what band and mode you're connecting at, as well as in an indication of signal strength (RSSI) if you write down and post back that information it'll tell us what's going on. -
Is anyone having issues syncing the iPhone wifi hot spot to iPad, Mac, Etc..? I constantly have to turn it off and back on to get them to connect. I with it was a little more seamless... Thoughts?
Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again! -

I just opened up my MacBook Pro after a few days of not using it and it was frozen. I turned it off and back on and all I see is a white screen, there was a file with a question mark flashing for a bit but I can't do anything, please help me!!
Jerricayoung,
you have a 13-inch Mid 2012 MacBook Pro. It’s modern enough that it supports booting into Recovery mode. To do so, hold down a Command key and the R key as you start up. It should eventually show a Mac OS X Utilities menu. Select Disk Utility from that menu; when the Disk Utility window appears, select the bootable volume from the left-hand side of the window. (It’s typically called “Macintosh HD”.) When the volume is selected, some buttons will appear on the right-hand side. If it’s not greyed out, press the Verify Disk button; if it is greyed out, or if it reports on errors that it found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu; that will restart your MacBook Pro in its normal mode. With luck, that will be enough to get you to your normal login screen, rather than the white screen. -

Macbook Display problem (With attached video)
Rather then describe the problem, I took a video of it. It will do this randomly until I move the screen or press down on it. Makes me think that it is more hardware related than software. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coVweb1urqs
