I do a search on the internet and when items come up, I click on them and they won't take me to that site..

When I type something in the search window and hit search, a lot of sites come up. Usually you click on any of them and it goes to that site for your information. Lately when I click on most of them it does nothing. Some of them send me to their site but most of them do nothing. I checked plug-ins as someone suggested, but did not see any problems there. Please send any other suggestions.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

I do a search on the internet and when items come up, I click on them and they won't open.

The top 1 or 2 results might open but many of the others will not open when I click on them. This has just recently happened in this last few weeks. Thanks for the help.

At lease one of your plugins looks to be out of date;
With the last Firefox upgrade, some plugins are no longer
enabled until you enable it.
Open the Add-ons Manager by
Pressing the '''Alt''' or '''F10''' key to bring up the tool bar.
Followed by; '''Tools > Add-ons.'''
Hot key; '''<Control> ''(Mac: <Command>)'' <Shift> A)'''
On the left side of the page, select Plugins.
BTW; At the top right is a link to check your plugins.

My phone was taken from me off the Edge and they won't give it back!

Back in September of 2013 I bought in to the Edge program when I was told I could cancel the line AND the phone at any time. I was told that I could return the phone AT ANY TIME (not just within the 14days) and everything would be cancelled. On March 10th I went into a corporate store and cancelled the line and returned the phone. The sales rep even analyzed the phone to make sure it was in good condition so he could cancel the edge contract. By the way the phone was an HTC one. So he told me I would see a charge on my phone bill for 24.99 every month but that I would also see a credit for 24.99 for several months until the contract ran out. I said ok. He took my phone. They seemed confused - he was asking the store manager for assistance. So 2 days later I call customer service to verify that everything had been done correctly. Customer Service informs me that the corporate store did not cancel the contract and that I had to go back to have them cancel it. My son goes in and gets them to do that. Great. So I get my bill and I'm still being charged for the phone. OK. I call customer service and they clarify that the phone is mine and I have to pay it out. No problem. I understand the contract requirements. Oh well right? NOOOOO! I go back to the corporate store to retrieve my HTC one phone and they tell me they don't have it anymore. Furthermore there is nothing they can do about it and I will continue to see the charge on my bill until I finish paying for the phone. I call corporate and speak to Antonio - a supervisor- and he informs me that I can go to the store and dispute it with the manager who just informed me he would not give me my phone back and that I would still have to pay for the device. REALLY? MOM: Go ask your dad DAD: Go ask you mom REALLY? They are blaming each other and no one is resolving THE PROBLEM. I don't care who is at fault...give me my phone back so I can see/use what I am paying for. I have 5 phones on my plan and have been with this company since Western Wireless, Cellular One, Alltel, and Verizon. No one had failed me til now. They keep referring to the 'NOTES' that everyone has been putting in the system. Some of it is true. Some of it is not. But they only go by what their people are noting. What about me? What about MY truth? I cannot believe what is happening. Just because you put people in those positions doesn't mean they are honest and capable. So now what?

I had the same thing happen to me recently. I went to Best Buy and did the Early Edge option to get an LG G3. Best Buy tells me I have to send my iPhone 5S to Verizon within 14 days to not get hit with a fee. I send in my iPhone after two days.
Fast forward a week and I decided I didn't want to have the extra monthly cost added to my bill. I call Verizon before I return anything, and they said "Oh when you return it you will go back to your normal 2 year contract and once we get the phone back you can go to a Verizon store and pick up a refurbished iPhone 5S". I return the phone to Best Buy and was fortunate enough to have an older work phone lying around to use while I go and pick up a replacement device.
NO SUCH LUCK. Verizon said that in the Edge agreement once I send the phone away they don't have to give you anything back even if you cancel it. How this is not considered robbery is beyond me. Also, how any lawyer or judge would agree that an agreement like that is legal is also beyond me. So Verizon pretty much took $400 from me.
The customer service rep actually said I could either buy a phone off eBay or re-join the Edge program. I respectfully told them I wasn't going to give Verizon any more of my money considering they just took $400 from me. It's sad that you get told one thing by Support, and then they screw you the next minute. Definitely canceling my service when I can and not recommending Verizon to anyone since they won't do the right thing.

How can I monitor what my kids are searching on the internet and chats with their iphones

Can I monitor from my iphone what my kids are searching on their iphones

Hello Fellows2014,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains helpful advice concerning parental controls:
iOS: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4213
You can enable Restrictions, also known as parental controls, on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Restrictions stop you from using specific features and applications. Learn more about the types of Restrictions and how to enable or disable them on your device.

I am attempting to download Elements 13 trail version and I get to the point where it says sign in required. The circle whirls like it is working and then it says that I need to connect to the internet and try again. But I verified that I am connected and

Can anyone help?

Jimmy RG
In the Elements Organizer 13
The key to all this is to click on/select/highlight the Album that you have created in Local Albums.
Then make sure that the Sort By: (in the row below the highlighted "Media" header is set for Album Order.
You should see a number at the top left of each of thumbnails.
Then, click on the thumbnail that you want to move, hold down the click, and drag the thumbnail to the wanted new location
in the line up of thumbnails.
Often I had to press down hard on the drag.
Please let us know if that worked for you.
Also, in Edit Menu/Preferences/Keyword Tags and Albums/Enable Manual Sorting Options, I set all for manual.

Trying to move clips in the timeline and they won't drop?

I'm trying to unlock tracks and that doesn't seem to help, what's going on? When I try to drop them in the place where I want them, instead of the cursor becoming that down arrow with the line below it, it just stays being the regular arrow cursor but with a star to the right of it and a square line appears on the timeline where I'm trying to drop the clip but it won't drop.

You can open your Project file in a text editor and see what links the project expects to find.
To do this,
1. Find your project in the iMovie/iMovie Projects/ folder. Make a copy of it, and put the copy on your desktop so you don't risk harming it in step 2. The project will have the name that you gave it, and will have the file extension RCPROJECT.
2. Open the copy of the RCPROJECT file in a text editor. You can do this by right-clicking (or control-clicking) on the project file and selecting OPEN WITH...some text editor.
You can open it in Text Edit, which comes standard on your Mac, but it may be confusing because of the hexadecimal characters. If you have access to the BBEDIT text editor, it seems to handle the hex characters better, so you can tell what is going on.
3. Now look at the links in the project file, and see where iMovie thinks they should be. If necessary, move them back there.
Hope this helps.

I've had a recent issue with downloading songs from the store, and they won't show up in my iTunes library, only in my purchased playlist. Anyone know how to get recent purchases to show in the music library?

Am i the only one with this issue?

when you play the CD in your laptop on your home screen a Cd should pop up under the name of the album. Than when you open itunes it will probly say something like "let this CD download" or something like that. If it doesn't than automaticlly while the CD is importing to your itunes a page will pop up with a progess of the CD download.
Hope that helped.

Hey kswannus,
I found a document that mentions symptoms similar to what you're experiencing - having a hard time hearing and being heard. I'd follow the troubleshooting steps within and see if that resolves the issue:

Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

After upgrading to the latest version of firefox. I can no longer access the internet and all traces of Mozilla Firefox are gone from my computer. I have no access to the internet, my home page or my e mails. What can be done??

I have been using firefox for years. I downloaded the latest version and at the conclusion of the down load I was refussed access to the internet. Something about Proxy???? I checked my firewalls and security and they said that mozilla was allowed but everytime I attempt to gain access I am refused. I cant access the internet and I cant download another program to access the internet. I uninstalled Firefox and attempted to reinstall but after uninstalling Firefox I have no means to reinstall because there are no traces of it on my computer and I no longer have access to the internet. What do I do? I cant access my e mails, stored messages, favorites etc etc.

No. After I select "Choose" the dialog box expands to provide only three choices. This is a new bug. I have only seen it in the past week or so, but it is maddening. I have observed that, while the Mozilla Foundation focuses on trivialities like which search engine should be the default, the Firefox application becomes buggier and buggier. Most of my family has switched to Chrome, and I will be following shortly. Firefox used to be a great program. Not any more. Getting assistance with a problem has also become very difficult.

What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
You may need to go back and start over. Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.

My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet".How can I change ip address?

Ipad will connect no problem to other networks.

First thing you need I think is to get your iMac connected to the Internet.
Shut down your iMac and you iPad. Then power off your router. Wait 30 seconds and power up the router.
After the router indicates that it is connected to the Internet then start up your iMac and see if it connects. If the iMac connects to the Internet then your iPad should too.
If this power up sequence doesn't work you'll have to dig into the router setup to make sure it is working properly.

My ipod 5th gen says it is connected to the internet and i can go on apps that require an internet connection but whe i try to use the weather or another app that uses your current location it cant find me???

If you open the Maps app where does that say you are located?
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds

Brand new macbook pro freezing when on the internet and won't fix itself

Three times tonight I have been on the internet and out of nowhere my macbook pro has frozen. I am unable to move the mousepad or click on anything or click out of the applications. I have to power off the computer to make it work again. How can i fix this? I have only had the computer for 5 days and I am confused at how this is happening already.

Take it back and get a new unit. If they say "We Will Fix it' then Return it for FULL REFUND, you have 14 days from day of purchase to return it No Questions Asked, and then buy another New unit.

You have 15 minutes from originally posting to edit a post - you will get an Edit button at the bottom right of a post. I've asked the hosts to remove it as it's not outside of the limit.
Do you get any music showing under the Purchased link for downloading ? If you do, but not that album, then is it hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 ?

I do a search on the internet and when items come up, I click on them and they won't take me to that site..
