I don't like it when webbrowsers keep passwords and usernames in their system. for example gmail, you type in your username and password and it remembers it. i don't know how to undo this.

In gmail, you would normally only see the accounts' name if you typed in the first letter of it and it pops up all the emails logged in on that computer with the first letter. Mines a B, but that's easy for anyone to know if they have my email. I would really like it if someone could help me fix this password/username lock thing.

I don't suppose it makes you any happier that you just need to double-click rather than guess the first letter of the user-id.
The user-id is remembered in cookies. You can remove cookie through Tools > Options > Privacy
The password connected to a user-id is collected upon successful use and clicking on yellow security bar. You can remove password through Tools > Options > Security
If you have a Master Password then it will restrict additions and deletions of passwords until a Master Password was entered for the session. Changes to the master password or show passwords require additional entry of master password at time of use.
If you don't want cookies or passwords saved because other have access to your computer that is what Private Browsing ("Ctrl+Shift+P") is for
Anyone with physical control of the computer owns it.

Thanks, your advice prompted me to look at it again on itunes, and discovered that i have actually downloaded the full song instead of the ringtone. False alarm...and thank you!

I have an Iphone 4S and it looks like I connected my iphone to my computer and need to know how I undo this.

I have an Iphone 4S & it looks like I connected my iphone to airplay on my computer and I need to know how to undo this.Can anyone help me?

Getting back is hard, but go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars and under Calendars check the time for syncing...set that as far back as you can, the default is one month.

When I clicked on a link, it opens into a new window. I would prefer that it opens as a new tab. Does anybody know how to change this? Thanks

You can look at the browser.link.open_newwindow prefs on the about:config page if you want to divert all JavaScript window.open() calls to a new tab.

I cannot get into the second page of some internet sites. For example, I'm not able to go into Business Section or Sport in NYT. Any idea how to fix this problem? Tks..

I'm also having issues with multiple emails..

For Flash, could you try downloading the "full" installers from this page:
https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html
In the first table, there are two rows for Windows: one for the ActiveX control for IE, and one for the plugin for Firefox. You might want to grab both. And try the .msi files instead of the .exe files to see whether those work better.
Will either of those install?
It's odd that on a newly rebuilt system your More System Details shows that you have a user.js file, which is an optional settings files used to override your previous session settings. This is not part of the standard Firefox installation, so if you did not create that file yourself, you may want to investigate or delete it. This article has more information on that: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].

When i open a folder on my desktop, the folder contains every file on my desktop inside it? what has happened? i didnt change any setting and i dont know how to "undo" this

help?

First, I would recommend repairing the hard drive with Disk Utility.
If that doesn't fix the problem, there's a very dangerous command you can execute in the Terminal. This is very hazardous, because a simple typo can result in very drastic consequences. I have seen people erase their entire hard drive by putting a space in the wrong place! So, please follow the directions I'm going to give you very carefully!
Open the Terminal, which is found in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder. In the Terminal, enter the following:
sudo rm -f
Make sure to put a space after the "-f"! Then, drag the troublesome file from the Finder and drop it on the Terminal window. That should insert the path to the file in the command. Then go back to the Terminal and press return. You will be asked for your password, and when you type it, nothing will be shown as a security measure. Press return again after entering your password. The file should be deleted.

When using restart firefox you get a folder on the desktop called old firefox data i need to know how to use this folder to get my old firefox preferences back

i've recently reformatted my computer and i've taken the old firefox folder from before the reformat and put it on the new one but i dont know how to use it to restore my old settings
by the way im not using a different operating system im running windows 7 like i was previously

Here's my suggested profile resurrection procedure using the old profile folder that's inside the Old Firefox Data folder.
'''Overview'''
These are the steps:
# Create a new Firefox profile
# Remove everything from that new profile folder
# Copy in everything from the old profile folder
'''Create a new Firefox profile (Windows)'''
Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
firefox.exe -P
''Note: Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.''
Click the Create Profile button and skip the option to change the folder location. Then select that new profile in the dialog and start Firefox.
'''Open the New Profile folder in Windows Explorer'''
Firefox in the new profile should look like a factory fresh installation. Open the Troubleshooting Information page using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
* Help menu > Troubleshooting Information
In the first table, click the "Show Folder" button. Firefox will launch your brand new profile folder in Windows Explorer.
Leaving this folder open, switch back to Firefox, and Exit. This will leave that profile folder open in Windows Explorer.
'''Copy Old Data in Place of New'''
In that new profile folder, select all the contents and delete.
Leaving that window open, open or switch over to your Old Firefox Data folder. Drill down into your old profile folder. At this level you should see a folder named bookmarkbackups among other things.
Select everything (Ctrl+a) and Copy (either right-click > Copy or Ctrl+c).
Switch to the empty new profile folder in other window and Paste (either right-click > Paste or Ctrl+v). This may take a minute since some of the files are large.
'''Start Firefox'''
Firefox should start up in that new profile with the resurrected old profile data. Success?

After the new 10.9.2 Maverick upgrade, my Photosmart C4480 3 in 1 printer can not scan and save the file to desktop or documents. You can only see the image in the print preview area. Does anyone know how to fix this or when a fix will be out?

After Aple support downloaded the new 10.9.2 Maverick upgrade on my MacBook Air, my Photosmart C4480 3 in 1 printer can not scan a document and load the file on to my desktop or document file. (You can see the doc image in the preview but it doesn't save it.) Does anyone know an Apple fix for this or when the fix will be out? After hours of trying reloading, and the usual fixes, etc. Apple told me to call HP, and HP told me they don't support Mac. It does not seem honorable of Apple to put out an upgrade and not tell people it will destroy their scanning ability, and that the only thing to do is to buy another printer/scanner.

Have you tried using Applications/Image Capture to scan.
Vuescan often works.

When i got to download multiple images (only in firefox), it will not let me select more than one at a time. Wondering if anyone knows how to fix this.

I will hold select, control or try to select all and none of the above work. It does in explorer

If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all 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")
In Firefox 4 and later [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Every time I try to install the usb driver for my iPhone 4s to my computer, it says "windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install". anyone know how to fix this???

I have tried countless things throughout the forum, but none of them worked. Anyone know a real solve for this?

thanks for your reply. i followed everything exactly. when I connected my iPhone after all that, it started "installing the driver" automatically. After a couple of minutes, it failed, just like before. Stuck again. thoughts?

Internal speakers are not working, they're not showing up at all. Does anyone know how to fix this?

My computer's speakers are not putting out sound. They worked fine yesterday, and I just now started up my computer and began using it today. The internal speakers don't show up on my list of output devices in settings, and I can't adjust the volume. Any help is really appreciated!!!

They are all in the same folder and it says all images are there, but it is only showing 1 card's images at a time. Does anyone know how to fix this?
This is kind of confusing, on the one hand you say "it says all images are there" and then you directly contradict this by saying "it is only showing 1 card's images at a time".
Could you explain in a lot more detail what you see (and don't say "it", say exactly what part of Lightroom or what part of your operating system you are looking at), or show us a screen capture?

If I don't like the new iOs 7 can I have a new iPhone for that?

If I don't like the new iOs 7 can I have a new iPhone for that?

You could buy a new iphone. But it will have ios 7, too. Oops!

I don't like it when webbrowsers keep passwords and usernames in their system. for example gmail, you type in your username and password and it remembers it. i don't know how to undo this.
