I can get to website home pages but when I try to get to a logon screen, I get error msg "URL is not valid cannot open"

I cannot access certain pages such as facebook, yahoo, my bank. I sometimes get as far as their home page, but when required to say, go to mail... I get the url msg described above. Same thing when I try to login to online banking. Facebook I cannot login whatsoever. These are just 3 different sites I've tried so far.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • I changed my password for hotmail on my home pc, and when I try to use it on my IPhone 3g, it keeps saying it's not valid. How can I get my new password to work on my phone?

    I changed my hotmail password on my home computer, and now when I try to get email on my phone and use my new password, it says it's not correct. I just did an update a few days ago, but still can't access my email on my phone.  Any suggestions???

    You shoulcn't, but download and use the free app My Contacts Backup to back up your contacts before you try.  It will back up your contacts as an attachment to an email which you send to yourself.  If you somehow lose your contacts by deleting the account you can later open this email on your phone and tap the attachement to re-import your contacts.

    Uninstall the Inbox Toolbar, following steps here:

    Then retry opening Firefox.
    You can also try opening Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] (use Continue in Safe Mode first).
    If that works, reopen Firefox Safe Mode, but use the dialog option to '''Restore default search engines''' as shown at https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode#Safe_Mode_window and press the '''Make changes and restart''' button.

    I have a lot of money on my Apple ID but when I try to buy something it ask for my security questions that I do not remember the answers to. I also don't have access to the email I used to set up my Apple ID but I do know the password how do I fix this ?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Hello   I have install photoshop CS4 ( 11)   but when I try to install last updates it show me am message ( Adobe Photoshop CS4 not installed ) ?!   but its installed and I use it    see Attach

    hello
    I have install photoshop CS4 ( 11)
    but when I try to install last updates it show me am message ( Adobe Photoshop CS4 not installed ) ?!
    but its installed and I use it ><
    see Attachment

    Please do not use the post title to post the entire question (no offense, it just makes the forum look ugly). As for your question - you really did install it? I mean with serial and install disc? If so, the update would work, because it would find the proper install info. That not being the case, there are a few things that may be wrong:
    - due to you language settings, the installer cannot find the folder because it has a different name (though on Vista, that shouldn't be an issue)
    - at some point, you used the CS4 Clean Utility/ Script to remove install info
    - you are using a pirated copy that you may have bought on eBay or elsewhere that has a modified installer to circumvent licensing
    - you are using an unlicensed version a "friend" gave you and that never was installed, but merely copied to the harddrive
    That pretty much covers the immediate options, now it's up to you to tell us, which one may apply. Assuming, we are talking about perfectly legit software, re-installing it from the original media should take care of the problem. For illegal software, you should understand, that you are utterly on your own and nobody will help you, much less on the forums of the company producing the software.

  • I get continously "THE URL IS NOT VALID AND CANNOT BE LOADED" whereve I am, my homepage or sites I have been using always

    Since I downloaded the last Firefox version 3.6 15, no matter where I am, I am back in my homepage and I get the message "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded", usually I can go back to the site I was in and keep doing whatever I was doing, but often it will happen again.
    This is happening in both my computer, laptop and desktop, one has windows XP, the other one has windows 7.
    Suggestions? It is becoming a nuisance being moved from the tab I am, and kicked back to the homepage tab
