I can't save files in any location on my computer with Firefox 4. How do I fix this?

Even when the program is run as an admin, it still says that I don't have permission to save in any location (even documents). I believe that this started after I updated Internet Explorer to the newest version. Downloads work fine in other browsers, but I prefer Firefox. I've tried running in Safe Mode and manually selecting Firefox.exe and running it as an administrator with no change. I reinstalled Firefox but DID preserve the profile info.

No idea considering your lack of information.
What version of OS X?
What kind of video? Has it ever worked before?

HT2470 allow user full rights ie save files in any location, change file attributes etc - how, where?

how and where do I give my user full rights ie to save files in any location, change file attributed(from read only ) etc

The simplest way is with the chmod Terminal command.
Warning: unless you know exactly what you are doing, you are almost certain to break something with indiscriminate use of this command. Make sure at least your data files are backed up (& ideally in offline storage) before you experiment with this command, & note that you can mess things up enough that you will have to reinstall the OS to recover.

I imported videos from photo into iMovie when I set up iMovie (obvious mistake) and now iMovie doesn't work properly, nor can I move specific videos into a folder where I want them. How do I fix this?

I imported videos from photo into iMovie when I set up iMovie (obvious mistake) and now iMovie doesn't work properly, nor can I move specific videos into a folder where I want them. How do I fix this? I even tried deleting iMovie, bought a new copy and installed it, but the folder "iPhoto Videos" is still there and I can't get new clips loaded to iMovie, especially where I want them. Please help.

The iPhoto Videos do occasionally have problems. I've seen a lot of people write messages to this Discussion group describing similar problems. The only thing that seems to get around this problem is to pull the video clips out of iPhoto then import them directly into iMovie. Once the troubles with iPhoto Videos starts, I haven't yet seen anyone write back with something that they did to fix it.
The most difficult part of doing this is the movies in iPhoto might be a little difficult to track down. But you can create a smart alum that does that for you. Go to iPhoto > File Menu > New Smart Album:
Set the first pulldown menu to keyword, second to contains, then in the last box type Movie with a capital 'M'. Then click OK. This smart album more or less does as search of the whole iPhoto Library and only displays items that match your search tearm of "Movie" exactly. In that smart album then you can find the original Movies you want to move out of iPhoto and into iMovie, <CTRL> click on the Movie clip, then choose Reveal in Finder. That will jump you out of iPhoto temporarily and into the iPhoto Library folder. From there you can move that movie file to the desktop. Move all the clips you want, once they're all collected up go to iMovie and go to the File Menu > Import Files. Then point it to the desktop where you moved your video clips.
This will put all those videos into an Event folder in iMovie and bypass iPhoto Videos altogether.

My ipod won't sync any of the music i downloaded and says that iTunes can't backup the Ipod because a session couldn't be started with the Ipod how do i fix this

My ipod won't sync any thing in my iTunes library it always stop as soon as it starts backingup the Ipod a message appears that says iTunes cannot backup the Ipod "my Ipod" because a session couldn't be started withthe Ipod how do i fix this problem?
This is exactly what the message says: iTunes could not back up the iPod "austins ipod" because a session could not be started with the iPod.

Try connecting your ipod to another computer and sync only 1 file or song just for isolation purpose only to see if it'll sync.
If still not syncing, then porbably you may have a bad iOS installed in iPod which is hard to see if it has a problem because you said nothing's wrong with iPod. I just saying is, it MIGHT have a bad iOS.
If you are unable to do a restore, put your ipod in DFU mode, then connect to iTunes and iTunes will detect your ipod in restore mode. Press shift key (PC keyboard) then click the restore button on iTunes. I hope you have your copy of IPSW file for restoration purposes.

Everything on my screen is miniscule, I can't see any of the menu's or toolbars. It's like trying to read a book with a font of 4, how do I fix this?

Van, its an ongoing issue for a lot of Windows users, and at this stage there is no ETA on when there will be a fix. Unfortunately you have chosen the wrong tool for using Photoshop. You may be able to make something with the info in this thread

Try resetting the phone with the home and power buttons held in until the Apple logo appears, then turn location services on (or off and back on if it is already on).

type some text like 'My website' and highlight 'My website'
Then
'Insert' > 'Link'
If you entered some text then it will already be entered in the 'Link text' section
otherwise
Enter the 'Link text' which can be the copy paste link http etc

I can't click on the tabs on my desktop firefox, firefox 30, how do you fix this?

I have reset and still get this issue, I would go and click on open new tab and then I would see the tab on the toolbar. I would go and try to open the tab by clicking on it and it would not work. How do you fix this? I know about shortcuts but its irritating and I share the computer and the shortcuts is slowing productivity. Thank you in advance.

The mouse does not activate a tab, but a keyboard shortcut like Ctrl+2 to activate the second tab on the bar, does work?
The Reset was a good thing to try. But some add-ons may reinstall after a Reset so those are worth reviewing again.
Users have reported some new tab dysfunction is associated with Conduit add-ons, such as a Conduit plugin and/or a "Community Toolbar" extension.
You can check for and disable extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* <u>Windows: Ctrl+Shift+a</u> , Mac: Command+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that help with the "+" button? If so, could you name the specific extension that caused the problem?
You might also check the Plugins section of the Add-ons page. You can use "Never Activate" to disable plugins that you don't ordinarily use.
Does that help at all?
