i did a restore to get rid of updated firefox. know it won't open. how do i get it to open? The reason I got rid of the update is because it would not create multipal tabs of the same website, & i lost my tabs to boot. can anyone help with this?

*Press the Shift key while an entry in the drop down list is highlighted to disable "Switch to Tab" and see the URL.
*Use the cursor Right key to select an item marked as Switch to Tab in the drop down list and copy the URL to the location bar.
*Open the URL in a new tab by using Alt + Enter on the highlighted entry.
*Open the URL in the current tab by using Shift + Enter on the highlighted entry.
If you use a system restore then you have the risk that not all files are reverted to previous versions and you most likely have corrupted your Firefox installation.<br />
You will have to do a clean reinstall of Firefox and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).<br />
Your personal data is stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure not to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    Hopefully this will help you.  Try placing your iPad in recovery mode again.  You may have to try this a few times.

  • I repeatedly receive an error when my IPad is trying to restore during the IOS 5 update. The error is (-50).  How do I fix this?

    I repeatedly receive an error when my IPad is trying to restore during the IOS 5 update. The error is (-50).  How do I fix this?

    Try restarting everything and then try to sync or reactivate. Quit iTunes, reboot your computer, reboot your iPad and then try again.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    1. See my User Tip for some help: Some Solutions for Resetting Forgotten Security Questions: Apple Support Communities.
    2. Here are two different but direct methods:
        a. Send Apple an email request at: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us.
        b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support
            and service.

  • Get rid of update?

    I have one update in my App Store for Angry Birds, an app I don't have. How can I get rid of it? Every time I try and buy the app just so the update goes away, it gives me an error message.
    I know somebody had the same problem as I did in two previous posts, but I don't have any partitions set on my computer and the other post hasn't given me the guide he found to solve the problem.
    Any help appreciated.

    Hi,
    Log out of the MAS. Launch iTunes. From the menu bar click iTunes / Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Click: Reset warnings and reset cache.
    From the menu bar click Store / Sign Out.
    Launch the MAS. See if that made a difference. If not, try deleting MAS associated files.
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.storeagent
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
    ~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left. Now open the Library folder then the Caches folder. Move the files you see above to the Trash.
    Now open the Preferences folder. Move those files to the Trash. Same for the Cookies folder.
    Restart your Mac. Sometimes reinstalling the MAS from the combo update available at this link can help. http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1349

  • How do I get rid of updated apps in apps store ?

    I have updated many apps in my App Store but cannot get rid of them after updating, any ideas ?

    Sorry, that's how it is now. The guess is that the list of updated apps is meant to be transparency for those that have automatic app updates turned on, so they can see what their iPad did while their back was turned (so to speak). But it's there whether you have the auto update on or not.
    They'll drop off after 2-3 weeks.

  • Get rid of update metadata arrow

    How did I get rid of the arrow telling to me update metadata. I have write to xmp sidecar turned off, and I don't want to create sidecars, but LR is telling me the files need to be updated. All the metadata is in the db already. I don't need or want sidecars, but the arrows are driving me crazy.
    If I go ahead and make the sidecar for any given file at issue, then go delete the xmp from disk, the arrow goes away and the caption is still there. It's idiotic.

    I'll admit having experienced this "metadata needs updating" mystery prompt, and without other applications having been involved. I'm looking at a collection of 14 DNG files right now that happen to be temporarally "located" in the quick collection. 3 of these 14 are showing a flashing down-arrow, while the harddrive churns in unison. I thought I had previously seen a hover-notice that indicated "metadata needs to be updated", but that little notice isn't working this morning.
    Choosing the option 'Metadata=>Save metadata to file' does not work -- however, choosing "Update DNG preview & metadata' does work. That said, I still have no reason for why only 3 of these 14 showed problems with metadata when nearly all 14 were similarly edited.
    Hmmm(?) ... while I write, thinking I had removed the problem, mysteriously a number (~6) of them have begun flashing their arrow again. I selected all files and then chose to "Sync Metadata" and all is (just as mysteriously) quiet again. I understand "Sync metadata" makes all writable metadata in all files the same, but that was alright for these files.
    Hmmm(?) look at that!! Another has begun flashing again, and now it's quit on it own. Geez Louise! This is a mystery I don't need, and I'll be keeping an eye on this topic.

  • How do I get rid of the Firefox disc icon on my desktop?

    Just updated Firefox... the disk icon shows up on my desktop every time I open the application, as does a window telling me to put Firefox in my applications folder, which I've already done. How can I get rid of these? Thanks!

    If  you have not tried this already, try this.
    System Preference > Notifications
    Select Calendar and uncheck the  box beside "Badge app icon".

  • If Firefox has already downloaded the 30.0 update, how do I get rid of it so that it won't upgrade Firefox when I restart my browser?

    Please don't try to encourage me to use the new update. That is not what I am asking. The layout of Firefox 30 is not user friendly at all, and if I cannot continue to use 28, I will change to a different browser.
    What I need to know is how can I get rid of the update that just downloaded itself without warning and permission? I have ALREADY selected in the options menu for Firefox to not check for updates. Thanks to another user's post I was able to learn how to disable this completely in the about:config menu (why can't it be done in the settings? Why doesn't Firefox listen to its users? That's a whole other problem!)
    I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me how to delete the update, that appeared against my will, so that I will not be FORCED into using version 30 next time I run my browser.

    I have heard there is a bug with that version where the
    update options are ignored.
