My computer (New iMac) is haunted by popups and advertisements. Obviously malware or viruses. How do I eliminate them?

You have viruses because you jailbroke your phone, and now you're probably spreading them to other phones. Nice.
Jailbroken phones are generally bricked for good. Throw it away, it's junk.

Any apps you've had installed on your iPad can be downloaded again.
Go to App Store on your iPad and select 'Updates' and then tap on Purchased. You can then view all purchases made on the iPad or purchases made on other devices by selecting the 'Not on this iPad' tab.

If you had a back-up created you can simply restore from your back-up.
This article may help, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If you don't have a back-up you will unfortunately need to input all of your settings again.

Hi megamike1969,
I've been losing some apps also in the Dock. As Niel said I think is that you may be able to just drag them back to the Dock, if you can find them.
What I do is open Launchpad and while you're in there, drag the application to the Dock. If you can't locate the apps, then disregard this post.

I apparently have more than one Apple ID. So, 1) how do I find out how many different ones exist, and 2) how can I consolidate them into one or two?

I have inadvertenly created two or more different Apple IDs. How can I learn all the different IDs associated with my email accounts or my name? How can I consolidate the different IDs into one or two?

Go to https://iforgot.apple.com/ and click the blue link "Forgot your Apple ID?"
It will result a page in which you can provide some contact information that may possibly find an existing Apple ID.
How can I consolidate the different IDs into one or two?
This cannot be accomplished.

I can't send email containing pictures from iPhoto on my computer since using iCloud. with iCloud. How can I send them now that iCloud doesn't work with iPhoto?

I can't email pictures on my computer from my iphoto since using icloud.

Try www.apple.com/support/ and then put /icloud /iphoto /mail and tech articles in those, and links to their respective Community Discussion.
Mail support has a wizard to test your settings too.
Not sure what error or why you can't, maybe iCloud forum has better chance.

My Contacts File in Applications has lost all name and addresses - how can I retrieve them?

Out of the blue my Contacts File in Applications has lost all my names and addresses. Is there any way I can retrieve them? On my back-up systems they don't appear either. Panic!
Lecia

Hello again
Alothogh I could not find help on any of the Communities (that I could acyually understand) - I haven't a clue what I have just done but ALL my addresses have now shown up in Contacts. Wish I knew what I had 'clicked" to achieve this - but as I have been "clicking" just about everything in sight - I am not sure what did the magic trick.
Maybe, although I have answered my own query, someone could perhaps tell me what may have happened? I THINK it was something to do with iCloud --- which is something I don't understand AT ALL!
Cheers, Lecia

When we backed up iphone on new computer all photos, apps were lost. how can we get them back?

When I tried to back up my phone on itunes, on a new computer, somehow I lost all of my photos, apps, everything. I have no clue how to retrieve them or if I accidentally deleted them when I restored the phone. Can anyone help me?

If you backed up the device, you should be able to recover it from the backup unless you somehow deleted the backup. See if it isn't recognized by iTunes, then restore it from backup.

Control click on your file> see your "Open With" options.

Why is it necessary that, every time I open Firefox to Google, it displays the Search | Firefox Help" tab and the "Start Now" tab. These are redundant and not wanted. How can I eliminate them?

I don't know what more details could be needed to respond to this simple question. It is a nuisance to have the help window when there is a help tab and "Start Now" may be some people favorit search engine but not mine.

Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
# You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />
