I cannot get rid of the Blingee Search Canvas tab, even though I have uninstalled the Blingee toolbar. Please help.
I went to Blingee and for some reason, ever since, Search Canvas has become my default search engine on Firefox only. I uninstalled the Blingee toolbar. I have search my computer for "Blingee" and "Search Canvas" and there is nothing to uninstall.
After months, I think I figured it out...
I was frustrated because I like to use the url bar as my search engine, which is not fixed using the link posted by jadeye.
Try this...
* In your address bar, type in: “about:config”
* Inside of the filter search box, type in: browser.search.defaulturl
* ctrl click and choose “Modify”
* Type in: http://www.google.com/search?lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
* Do the same process with: keyword.URL and use:
http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=
I think those steps finally fixed it for me. F-ing Blingee / SearchCanvas. What a racket.

I have installed the most recent version of Snow Leopard on my MAC, and I am trying to install Mountain Lion from the Apple Store. It will not install, because it says I do not have 2GB of memory, even though I have over 200GB available. Please help.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
One thing is the memory, and another thing is the hard disk space. You are telling me that you have 200 GB of free space on the hard disk, but the App Store is telling you that you have to install 2 GB of memory or more on your Mac if you want to upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.
First of all, open > About this Mac > More Info, and copy "Model Identifier" here, so we can know what Mac you have got and how much memory you can install.
We recommend to buy the memory in OWC or Crucial (Crucial is cheaper and offers the same compatibility warranty as OWC) because you won't probably have any problem with the memory you buy there -

I downloaded digital hd copies of movies onto my parents' computer and they have a new computer now, and the movies aren't there, even though they have the same apple ID. What do I do to get them to download?
New computer: Dell, Windows 8.1
Processor: Intel Core i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz
64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor
16 GB RAM
itunes up-to-date
Old computer: Dell, Microsoft Windows XP
Processor: Intel Pentium D CPU @ 2.80GHz
1 GB RAM
itunes not up-to-date (updating it isn't really an option)
I have these movies downloaded on the old computer from digital hd redeemed codes: Fantastic Mr. Fox, Super 98, Thor, Inception, The Hunger Games, and Star Trek Into Darkness. I bought Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl on itunes with money, and that one isn't showing up either. When I search it on itunes to see if I can just re-download it, that isn't an option. I would have to buy it again. Home Sharing isn't what I want because the old computer will not be here forever and it is not connected to wifi.
It's kind of a lot of movies, and I want them on the new computer.im so happy I have a iTunes Card Code absolutely free! I got it at http://linkbitty.com/freeitunes2014

On Maverick my i cloud will not change the verification phone number even though I have change the phone number in apple and on contacts and restarted the computer. Help? I can't get the code necessary to fix the keychain without it.
You can change the phone number the verification code is sent to from a device or Mac that has your iCloud keychain enabled as follows:
In iOS 8, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain > Advanced. In iOS 7, tap Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain. Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
In OS X Mavericks v10.9, choose Apple () > System Preferences. Click iCloud, then click Account Details. Make sure the phone number under Verification number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
If you don't have access to a device or Mac with your iCloud keychain enabled, you'll have to contact Apple support to verify your identity and get assistance making the change: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/. -

There is no consistency when one gets the Mozilla Firefox Start page.There is a line as follows :
Web Images Maps News Shopping Books more
To get Gmail one has to click on "more" which gets one a dropdown menu which ends in "even more" Clicking on this takes one to a page headed "Even More Google Products", including (Hurrah!) M Gmail.
Click on this and one gets the page where one signs in, even though I have ticked the box entitled " Stay signed in" and at last ones's e-mail page turns up. Very occasionally, instead of Books or Shopping on the Start Page "Gmail" is there which when clicked on takes one directly to one's e-mail.It seems a hell of a rigmarole just to get one's e-mail!You can set Firefox home page to one of your choosing, see [[how to set the home page]].
If the keep me signed in option is not working, you may have a malformed cookie. Try deleting Google/Gmail cookies, for details on how to do that see [[deleting cookies]]. -
My daughter had completed a chart in pages. I saved it and then clicked on other chart types. Now I can't go back to the original chart she made even though I have not re-saved the file. How can I go back to her original chart with data?
I don't get what you are saying.
Is this all the same document?
What version of Pages?
Have you tried to revert to a previous version?

How can I make iTunes sort on the first word by default, even though that word is "The" or "A"?
How can I make iTunes sort on the first word by default, even though that word is "The" or "A"?
I myself think that (for instance) "A tribe called Quest" should be sorted under "A", not "T".
Now I can edit the sort options manually per track and/or per selection, but I would really like to just kill this "iTunes-knows-how-you-should-sort"-feature in iTunes.
Anyone any suggestion on how to do that?
ThanksHere is a modified version of one of Doug's Scripts. My modification was to add Sort Name to the list of tags that could be changed. I tried it on a single track and it worked. I recommend backing up your library first. Select the tracks you want to change (or all tracks) and run the script from the Applescript Editor. If it works as intended, save it so you can apply it to newly imported tracks. And, yes, I know this isn't the exact answer to your question, you want to change a preference setting in iTunes (if there is such a setting).
Original script can be forund at http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=thistagthattag
Modified script is below. Start up Applescript Editor, paste it into a new window. Start up iTunes and select the tracks to modify. Click Run in the Applescript Editor. Follow the instructions.
(* Put This In That
v2.0 april 22 2008
- runs as universal binary
- adds "Show" tag
- consolidated code
- saved as script bundle
v1.7 October 3, 2006
- adds "Album Artist" as option
v1.6 October 28, 2004
- works around iTunes 4.7 selection bug
v1.5 ('04/1)-- adds "grouping" tag

In IE I keep getting "adobe flash player 10 required" even though I have uninstalled and reinstalled
in IE I keep getting "adobe flash player 10 required" even though I have uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version. Weirdly, the sound still works
Just to update: Before posting, I tried everything I could find on Flash Player Help | Installation problems | Windows and nothing worked. The flash player stopped working in early November. I know it is some setting somewhere that I need to fix, but I just can't find it. I get a message that "adobe flash player 10 required" but, oddly, I still get sound.

Hi. Can anyone help me? I am trying to delete a phone number which appears in my Messages list even though i have deleted the text message content it came from.
Try logging into your Yahoo account from a computer, search out the contact you are trying to delete and manually correct or delete the bad contact.
The bad information might be hidden as a second address or other contact information (or misspelled) and not be showing up on the iphone but will pull up the address anyway.
I had one old address in a contact that kept pulling up each time i tried to email him. The new address was there, but the old address was what the phone kept showing. When I edited the contact info from my computer the old address went away, and the new address started poping up.
