I am not happy with the changes in recent versions of Firefox
Hey Guys and Girls in the 'Development Team'
Have you noticed that the vastest majority of Firefox users
are looking for ways to return the interface to the one they know and love. Clearly this has been ignored. The changes have taken away all of the features people have been used to using for yonks, just to make it more geeky and user unfriendly to newbie's & 'old folks' like my 86year old mum.
''deleted'' I am probably wasting my time, I guess will need to start looking for different browser technology to include in my teaching as well as my recommendations to business clientele.

I am not happy with the changes in Firefox 4+ versions.
Why do you keep focusing on HTML5 and CSS3 and browser speed improvements only? Firefox 4+ [5,6] crashes randomly! And what about the memory leaks? What about all of your users who want you to go back to the 3.5 setup? What about focusing on improving on what we liked instead of degrading your browsers like so?
This used to be my favorite browser but now it crashes so often and the interface is so ugly and then there are the memory leak problems. I am pretty sure I am not the only one disgruntled by your browsers now. I am leaving and so will many others.

I would like to create the a swatch, add it to the library and import to the swatch panel. The help pages available relate to earlier versions of Muse, which does not work with the 2014.2 release version that I have. I have created a library folder, imported the colour swatch as just 4 colours as a mulib file. I drag the four colours on to the muse page in design view but that is as far as I get. Can anyone help? Thanks
I don't know since I don't share anything. You'll have to peruse the help files and check the permissions and ACLs on the Shared folder. According to the permissions on the Shared folder everyone can R&W. If you want those to be inherited by everything dropped into the folder, add an ACL for

If I am not happy with the Plus size, can I exchange?
Hey everyone, since we didn't really get to physically see the phones and their sizes in person yet, I ordered the Plus and am sure I will end up being happy with the large screen size.
However I am a man who likes a few options, and at least one to sleep better at night.
If for some reason in the 14 days I receive the phone and am allowed to return it, can I exchange my phone (I paid upgrade rate), a 64gb plus 5.5, can I exchange this for a 4.7 64gb?
Problem is, what if it is not in stock, am I stuck with the phone for 2 years or do I have options within the 14 days to make a swap occur if I do not like the 5.5?
Thanks!If you purchased the phone at the store, simply bring it back to the store. If you purchased online and had it delivered, it comes with instructions on how to return.
You can simply go back to your previous phone until the phone you want is in stock. -

Hello Would I be able to do myself to change the graphic card. Present one which came with my iMac is Radeon HD6750M but I'm not really happy with it.
What is the advantage to changing to HD6770M?
Many Thanks for an advice.
With Kind regards WigorThe only way for you to upgrade is to return it and bring it back to Apple in 14 days and get your full money back.
The only way to get a better video card is to order a 27 inch iMac with the custom graphics chip option.
I am not sure if you can order this in an Apple store or not. The iMac options are listed on their online ordering site.
The custom GPU is a 1 or 2 GB VRAM GPU. It is only available in the 27 inch screen models.
If it has really been a full two weeks, you need to return this iMac like tomorrow.
Apple won't do the video upgrade for you as this is a non-upgradeable part by Apple standards.
If you attempt to upgrade/replace this GPU yourself, you void your 1 or 3 year AppleCare warranty with no hope of ever getting any free warranty work ever done on this iMac if anything should go wrong.
If your time for a full refund has passed, you need to sell this iMac so you can purchase an iMac with better specs and options.
Other than RAM, iMacs are not user upgradeable and you need to order the right iMac and combination of options options at actual time of purchase. -
For some reason when trying to get ito Cloud, I can't get into my previous e-mail address to make changes, which I must do to delete it. Cloud does not recognize my old password and the system does not seem to associate my BD with it. I knowlonger have the old e-mail address associated with Cloud.
I have a new e-mail associate with my Apple account and a new password. The problem is trying to get Cloud to recognize my new I.D.You have to delete the old account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Can't find out how to organize my bookmarks. can't do it after updating. Person tried to help, we had long conversations, I sent lots of images, it got to where I think the answer given were not related to the problem. I asked for help from a technician or to give my emails to one. She won't do it and I can't get help. So I'm starting over. It shouldn't be this hard. I need someone else to help me.
re: How do I organize and delete bookmarks in my short toolbar list.
* https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/884877
You say you have a lot of duplicate bookmarks, and want to know how to organize bookmarks, but from the pictures shown, I really only see a news subscription, some sample bookmarks in the bookmarks toolbar that you don't display on the toolbars so I don't see point in deleting anything there most of it are reports from the database or from a news subscription nothing of much concern, really. I would dump the news subscription if you don't use it.
How do you want to arrange your bookmarks, but you must keep within some boundaries of what was expected of the three major folders.
Bookmarks Menu -- this is your folder categorized bookmarks, originally all bookmarks were in this folder and the bookmarks toolbar was one folder within -- that has changed.
Bookmarks Toolbar -- intended to be visible on the toolbar with main bookmarks and folders spread out horizontally to save one level of drilling down into folders, with very few bookmarks and folders visible on the toolbar but quickly accessed. You can use the bookmarks showing essentially as buttons a few primary bookmarklets. You can have folder structure there so you could actually have thousands of bookmarks there within folders.
Unsorted Bookmarks (no folders within by intent not by restriction) -- new concept to not categorize bookmarks into folders because of bookmark tagging. Delicious.com will show you what they intended where you have lots of people. I think the concept of tagging breaks down with one person. The other reason bookmarks no longer had to be put into folders was the "AwesomeBar" feature of Firefox that is a great feature it will find bookmarks whatever folder they are in -- I hope you are familiar with it. You can throw bookmark separators into any folder but they are especially useful in the unsorted bookmarks folder, especially if you sort the folder. In other words a group probably within a date range.
So how do you see yourself categorizing your bookmarks ?
I'd like to get an idea of '''how many bookmarks '''you have altogether and how big your places.sqlite file is. To find out how many bookmarks you have all together bring up the Bookmarks Library list, place a colon (":") into the search field this will do a find on all of your bookmarks. At the bottom of the library window you will see the total number of bookmarks you may have to nudge the vertical scrollbar down, and as long as no bookmarks are selected you will see an '''item count'''.
Open your profile folder Help > Troubleshooting information... then click on "Open containing folder" then looking in bookmarkbackups folder and report size of last .json file in there -- hope you can see the extension the filenames have dates.
From the library list you can see if you actually do have a lot or any duplicated by eyeballing the list sorted by the location. You don't want to delete anything yet until you know what you want to do and what folders the bookmarks actually in, as you would not want to delete a categorized bookmark for an uncategorized one.
I have 1256 bookmarks, a bookmarks backup file (.json) is 1849 KB.
I have 750 of those bookmarks have a keyword shortcut -- most of my bookmarks may not actually be bookmarks to webpages.
Install the "Show Parent Folder" extension, it would be important for manually categorizing and deleting bookmarks.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/show-parent-folder/
At some point you will want to install the "Sort Places" extension that allows you to sort folders recursively in a matter of seconds. Only sort when you want to sort, never automatically.
* https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/sortplaces/
Other extensions of interest for working with bookmarks are included in
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sorting_and_rearranging_bookmarks_-_Firefox
The columns in the bookmarks library list that I show are
:Name, Location, Parent Folder, visit date, visit count, Keyword, Description, Last Modified
The important columns for eliminating duplicates are
:Name, Location, Parent Folder, Keyword, Description
:if you have Tags then that column would also be important not to delete the bookmark
Sort on Location look for duplicates, expect you won't find as many as you thought you would, because Firefox makes it difficult to create duplicates if you use the bookmarks star. I wouldn't delete any until you really know what you want to do, if you have duplicate you would not want to delete one a primary location based on parent directory or the one you use with a keyword.
I don't really think you have much to delete in your toolbars list, they are basically examples. Would highly recommend you keep something in the bookmarks toolbar even though you are not displaying it.
The only case of having major duplicates are if you have imported bookmarks at the bottom of your bookmarks menu also named bookmarks menu or something similar. You would see that in the parent folder column -- you cannot sort on the parent folder column. -
Database table not updating with the changes
Hi friends,
Iam having a tablecontrol where iam gettting the data from the ztable for a particular key field. When i change certain fields in the table control and when i click save, it should update the changes in the ztable.
module save output.
modify zslip_po1 from table x_po1_slip.
here slpno is the key field. if I change a field for a particular slpno it should update the changes for that slpno value only.
but it is not updating the changes. although iam setting the slpno field dynamically.
Please give me ideas.
thanks and regards
Murali Krishna THi,
1. Have 2 Internal Tables, the first one must contain the original data(before change ) and the second one contains the update data(after changed ie. table control data).
2. loop the first table and read the data from the second table using index.
3. inside the loop, compare the work area of both the internal table.
if both are same, then no change was made to that particular record, so no need for updation
if both are not same, then some changes were made on that record, so need to update.
4. use modify command to update that particular record from the work area.
i think in performance wise also this logic will be helpful, since we are updating only the changed record.
since this is addon table, so i hope the no of records will also less, so no need to worry about loop.
check with this, it may work out......
thank you,

Verizon, I am not happy with the note 3 reception
I am dripping calls everywhere! I had a RAZR Maxx prior to this and never ever had an issue. It's been almost 7 months since I got the note 3, I drop calls everywhere even in walmart! I have no reception many places in school where I did with my RAZR. What am I supposed to do if my family has an emergency and they can't get in touch with me because of this reception issue?
Engineers have escalated it, replaced my Sim and factory reset. No fixing the problem. I even swapped my phone with my wife's note 3 and the same thing happen! I have 3 little kids at home and need to be in touch with my medical community, I need a phone I can depend on. Not this type of garbage. What is going on with the note 3?!Who uses their Note 3 for calls?
Samsung Galaxy smart phones are great for so much---except for making calls. Its worse for call and sound quality. Get use to it.
But there are a few things you can do to improve drop calls, fading in and out, static and poor call quality.
1) Turn off all your bloatware applications that you are not using. Remove SIM card for a few minutes and then restart the phone.
You can turn off these apps yourself thru the App Manager, or you can use a security app like CLEAN MASTER to identify which apps you can turn off without harming your phone and walk you thru the steps. Steps are to a) Remove updates b) Turn Service Off c) Stop the Service. If your phone is Rooted, well you know what to do.
2) At least once a month or so, remove your SIM card for at least 5 mins and replace to refresh network connectivity.
3) Monitor your downloaded apps that you install. Certain apps with permissions can affect Network connectivity. I have had the Epic, Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note 3, Galaxy S4...these tricks will help with your calls. If it gets too bad, use your warranty and get another phone. My experience is that every replacement I get from Verizon is crap, but my Assurion or Samsung replacements are great.
4) After you have done all the above, Dont hesitate to change your SIM card every so often. Pop into a Verizon store and get a new SIM Card or have them mail you one for free. -
Who do i email if i am not happy with the repair service i have been given?
i sent my phone back for repair because it had something wrong with the sound/silence buttons, it was covered on my warranty and apple have done nothing to reduce the problem and have sent me back my phone which still has the problem with it, they said they would repair it and they haven't, how do i contact apple with this problem?
unfortunatley i don't live close to an apple store and contacting them via telephone or email is the only option

Mac mini OS X 10.5 Firefox 3.6.13 dmg
You could use firefox 3.6, which is old but still supported and secure. However the best solution is to give up on using Google Toolbar because Google no longer support it with firefox, mainly because it has little to offer.
You can still save google bookmarks by copying them into Firefox. Please have a look at
* [[google Toolbar is not compatible with Firefox]] <-- clickable link -- <br> which may help with some ideas and proposed solutions.
I am hoping the Norton report you refer to merely says your system has vulnerabilities, rather than that it has an actual infection (or that it has dealt with or quarantined any malware). -
I never had trouble logging on to such common sites such as Youtube, Yahoo, or Gmail, until I upgraded to the latest version of Firefox. I never had to "delete cookies" or "clear cache" in the past to get logged on. If this issued isn't corrected soon I regret I'll have to go back to IE...oh the agony!!!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I upgraded to version 3.6.4 and 3.6.6I'm moving to google but I now have problems opening pdf's and is not better nor faster than the old firefox. I miss it so much!!!
