I got a message to help test Mozilla and Mozilla is stopping the download of this even though I "Allowed it? The feedback submit will not let me submit any feedback to you? All info is included below,
I downloaded Version 4 of Mozilla yesterday because while playing Farmville a Zynga game on Facebook my computer was going very slow and an error message kept coming up saying internet connection had been lost and it reconnects. I use Comodo.com for security and live support, they have checked and rechecked my pc . There is nothing wrong with it. About 3 weeks ago FB/Z made a change saying they were going to throttle the game and control the limits on gift giving. This is when all the problems started that I'm experiencing now. It happened in the past when I first started playing while I was using IE 8. That is why I first started using Firefox. Firefox was so much better; no hang ups, no disconnections. The games played really smooth and easy. Now Firefox is doing the same things that IE was doing. I tried Comodo Dragon for a while. It ran really fast without problems. But, I was getting all kinds of Facebook notices because Dragon's security wouldn't let them into my email or anything. In other words Facebook cannot handle a good browser with good security. I went back to using Mozilla and have been using it ever since. But, this is horrible. It is constantly saying waiting on app.facebook...... and everything just freezes up. Then today, I got a message from Mozilla about being in a test for a week to help Mozilla make the program better. I agreed and tried to download it. It couldn't be downloaded "because Firefox was preventing the download." I clicked on"Allow" the info bar went away. It was downloading but then I got a message in the download progress bar saying it could not be downloaded because Firefox would not let it. I deleted the previous version of Firefox yesterday because I thought it would interfere with the new one so it isn't that. I am using Windows 7 and it is up to date. I sent one feedback message today but I had to work to get it to submit. I tried again about a 30 minutes ago when I got the join the test group message again and nothing would submit so I came to Mozilla.com to this page to let you know what was going on. I don't know anything else to tell you. Is it possible that to throttle down the games the Facebook browser is using to much memory and processor speed and this is causing the computers to freeze up. Other game players are having these same issues. I bragged about Mozilla for over a year to my friends on Facebook and got a lot of them to change over to it. They have loved it. Now I worry about what's going on. These problems are happening almost every time I make I do anything. It is constant?
EDIT: To try to work out what those two midden volumes are do I tried this in terminal, gave me this:
[code]
garys-mac-pro:volumes gary$ ls -l -a -i
total 524
13694 drwxrwxrwt@ 7 root admin 238 30 Oct 22:07 .
2 drwxr-xr-x@ 38 root wheel 1360 21 Oct 23:35 ..
8 drwxrwxrwx 1 gary staff 131072 1 Jan 1980 Data

47104 drwxr-xr-x 1 gary staff 2048 12 Sep 17:59 Untitled 1
garys-mac-pro:volumes gary$
[/code]
I presume those ghost type volumes, net and home, are the ones showing up there with names as . and .. and run by 7 root admin. Shouldn't technically I be the user admin since only I use this machine? No idea why i'm listed as gary staff ... Soz for all the questions, I really wanna learn

My daughter has entered the wrong passcode too many times on her iPOD Touch, it is now disabled. When I connect to iTunes, it will not let me go any further until I enter the correct passcode. I no longer get the option to do this, all I get is iPOD disabled. Help Please
Restore the iPod from the computer to which the iPod is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the iPod into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:

I downloaded a newer version of iTunes, 10.7. Now it will not let me purchase anything. I get an error code -42408. What does this mean and how do I fix? I have edited and revised all my names and account settings, checked payment. Quit, restarted. Help please, I'm going crazy without my iTunes. I'm on a MacBook Pro.
Found this item it may help
OK, I have fixed it here. Here's what I did:
quit iTunes
trashed ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist
started iTunes, and authorised my account
Worked straight away after that ! -
After upgrading to Snow Leopard, Mail will not let me archive any mail. All archived messages re-appear in my inbox (I have tried archiving and placing in the trash bin). How do i regain control of my inbox?
The main differences that can cause a problem are scripting additions (64-bit vs 32-bit and security reasons) and the usage of dates (it is not as forgiving). AppleScript itself is basically the same, so if empty paragraphs are what caused your problems the update would have just been a coincidence.

imovie will not let me load a movie to You Tube. The error message from imovie says it is the wrong password and user name. I rechecked it and it is right.
It can be tricky sometimes. Go to your youtube account in Safari and try logging in. They might have changed the security requirements. In addition, you might find this software easier to use for uploading video to youtube.

I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing
Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder. -
my itunes will NOT let me buy any explicit music and i dont know why can anyone help me?
Either:
iTunes is trying to protect you from the ugly side of the adult world
Your parents are trying to protect you from the ugly side of the adult world
You've turned on the Parental/Content Restrictions by mistake
Look in iTunes at Edit/Preferences/Parental>Content Restrictions>Restrict explicit content and make sure the tick is not in the checkbox.

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/. -
In my system preferences, my sharing folder will not let me access it. All my photo booth share button is grayed out. One more thing, My photoshop will not let me import any photographs. I believe this all has to do with this. Any way to fix this issue?
The iTunes Store has no phone support and never has. Contacting them has always been via web form. Go here:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

Since updating my Imac 27" 8 month old computer it will not let me open up any programs including safiri and iphoto. it is pretty much saying that i need to install all the program again, which i can not afford nor have the time too. can someone please help me be able to get it back to the way it was or help me to fix it so i can keep using it with this software update
For starters, you could boot from the OS X install DVD that came with your iMac (insert the disk, reboot and hold down the "C" key after the bong). On that disk is Disk Utility; run that, choose the iMac's hard disk, and run Repair Disk. If errors are found and repaired, try running it again until it's deemed OK.
If that doesn't help, try to get the OS 10.6.8 combo updater from Apple and run that. It will replace a lot of the Apple software that's already on your iMac and may refresh things so that they'll work. -
It will not let me check train time table etc...but it will let me check resturants and garage websites. I have already set it. I am using a sky router and my internet everywhere else (on other PC's is fine) Please can you help.
Try
- - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset networks settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- Power off and then back on the router.
You will have to reenter all network passwords.
- DId it work before with this network?
- Does it work OK with other networks?
- Do other devices have this problem? -
Just got on my Ipad and it says it has not been backed up for 4 weeks. It will not let me turn it off, unlock it, and when I press OK it does nothing.
Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I have locked my ipad, don't know exactly how, but it was NOT from a wrong passcode. I think I accidentally touched the lock button in the little rollup screen at the bottom of the ipad. The ipad will not syn with the PC, I cannot get past the on button. It will not let me enter my passcode, nothing. Does anyone know how I can fix this please?
thank you so much. I have been fretting for hours and in one very quick response you have fixed it for me. Eternally grateful.

When I open an email with an attachment, it downloads the attachment and saves it to my downloads. At a later time, I return to the download list and try to open it and it will not allow me to open them. How do I open my saved downloads?
If the Open or Open Containing Folder entry in the right-click context menu of a file in the Download Manager is grayed then that means that the file is no longer in that original download location. It may have been removed by cleanup software or anti-virus software if you haven't deleted the files yourself.
