I had a quick links bar with several sites that I use on a daily basis, it is now missing and I need to find where it went?
I had a quick links bar that contained several of my daily sites. Today I opened Firefox and that bar is no longer there. I have tried to find it under the "View" tab but nothing exists. Where did it go and how do I bring it back?
== This happened ==
Just once or twice

Hello Christian.
If it was the Bookmarks toolbar and it's no longer visible, you can make it visible by going into ''View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar''.
If the Bookmarks toolbar is visible but no bookmarks are displayed, go into ''Bookmarks > Bookmarks Toolbar'' and see if there's anything inside it. If there is, go into ''View > Toolbars > Customize... > Restore default set'', to restore your interface buttons to their default postion. If there is nothing inside ''Bookmarks > Bookmarks Toolbar'', something deleted what was inside it. You should be able to restore your bookmarks by going into ''Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks... > Import and Backup > Restore''.
If none of this helps, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.

I have a site with m4v files that played before the upgrade to 10.6.7, now just sound
I have a site with m4v files that played before the upgrade to 10.6.7, now when accessed the sound plays but no video. Is there a different file type I should create or is this a glitch w/this version? Played before & still plays-Mac b4UG-PC/Iphone/Ipad.
Page Link: http://www.myfarrah.com/My_Farrah_Actress.php
You can click the video link to play or...
Video Link: http://www.myfarrah.com/ACT7.php
Code:
<table width="444px" border="0" cellpadding="0" align="left"><object width="444" height="285" border="0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.myfarrah.com/bbed/bb2.m4v"></param><embed src="http://www.myfarrah.com/bbed/bb2.m4v" type="application/movie" width="444" height="285" border="0"></embed></object><p>Are you using Safari or Firefox? It runs as expected in Firefox, but in Safari I too get just the sound, and going to the m4v link causes the movie to download rather than play (it downloads fine and plays in Quicktime once downloaded). I checked some of my own m4v movies, and they were playing fine in Safari. For one embedded in a complex web page, see here:
http://www.pinkmutant.com/articles/snowleo.html
The next m4v has its very own very simple page, with the movie called using an embed tag with various options set (you can see the details by going to View->View Source) and also plays:

There was a problem with a Safari plug-in misbehaving very early in Snow Leopard, but I no longer remember the details. But see this archived discussion:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2158092?start=0&tstart=0
It was a rather complex problem, but I had thought one of the updates fixed it.

How to finish with the sites that open aleatory on safari
how to finish with the sites that open aleatory on safari?
There is no need to download anything to solve this problem. You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
Malware is constantly changing to get around the defenses against it. The instructions in this comment are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
Step 2
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that this Internet criminal has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -

how will i activate my iphone?and keep on asking link to an apple id that was used to set up this iphone
You need to enter the id, and the password, of the account that the phone is linked to.
Did you buy the phone new or used ? If you bought the phone used and it's still linked to the previous owner's account then you will have to contact the previous owner and ask him/her to remove the phone from their account : Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account - Apple Support.
If you bought the phone new and it's your account then enter the id and password that you were using in Settings > iCloud on it -
Why are most of the links on Oracle's site that relate to Java broken?
Why are most of the links on Oracle's site that relate to Java broken? For example, try searching for SocketChannel and then clicking on any of the returned links, in particular click on www.oracle.com/technetwork/servers-storage/ts-4222-159193.pdf.
This is the second time I have tried to search for Java information and both times found broken links.
Does anyone know where I can find more information on using a SocketChannel?Kayaman wrote:

They have a huge investment in it and would need to replace or discontinue a number of products that they paid quite a bit of money for.
On the other hand in might just be that they don't much about providing support that doesn't lead to revenue. Thus support contracts have a support channel while public links get little support. -

How can I share my ical work calendar with my coworkers that are using google calendar?
How can I share my ical work calendar with my coworkers that are using google calendar?
You can only do this by syncing your calendar to an external server - MobileMe is designed for this but if you don't already have a MobileMe account you can't start one now.
If you do have a MobileMe account the method is described here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/sharedcalendar.html#publicshare
If you don't, you could sync to Google Calendar (Google accounts are free) or wait for iCloud which should be out in a couple of months and will probably provide this sort of facility.
You might like to consider BusyCal which is like iCal Pro - similar to iCal but with extra facilities. It can sync calendars on a Lan and also between accounts on the same machine (you have to have fast user switching enabled).
There is a free trial available on their website: it's slightly cheaper from the Mac App Store. (I have no connection with this company). -
Want to hide address,Tool,link bars of a new window opened using target="a"
Hi,
I have to hide the address bar, tools bar, lilnks bar of a new window opened using the target = "detailWindow".
I am opening the window on click of a link and button but I cannot use window.open();. On click of the link for the first time a popup window should be opened showing respective data and then on click of the hyperlink the same window (pop up) should get refreshed with the new data.
I have searched a lot regarding it but I haven't found any proper solution for the same. I have tried using the javascript but only solution I found is to make the window fullscreen.
Can anybody help me by providing the solution for the above problem?
Thank you.Not possible.
Use window.open(). There it is for. -
Upgraded to latest Firefox version on my laptop w/ Vista Home Premium and get no browser page; no back buttons; no bookmarks/favorites; no address bar...nothing like a typical browser page...all I have is a cumbersome Firefox bar that has preset sites that do nothing when clicked.
FF worked fine before I "upgraded". Want 3.5 back
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about 5 days agoI followed your instructions and installed Developer Suite 10G on Windows Vista Home Premium edition. I have Oracle 11G DB running on the same machine.
Two points, Steve:
1. When I tried to set the maximum virtual memory to 6110 an error message displayed from Windows and told me that I can't set the maximum virtual memory to more than 4096. I set it to 4090 and it worked and I got nothing wrong during the installation process.
2. After installing JInitiator and disabling Java on Firefox I called the http://127.0.0.1:8889/forms/frmservlet page and everything seemed to be OK because the Oracle Forms Services logo appeared and then a successful installation message appeared , but as I clicked (ok) to continue a gray screen appeared inside the browser (like the one displayed when you try to run a Java applet inside a browser) and then I wait to death till something appears but sadly nothing. I just get a blank gray screen inside my Firefox browser.
Do you have any idea what to do to solve the problem?

I recently purchased Snow Leopard v10.6.3 in order to upgrade the OSX platform on my 5 year old Macbook Pro. That loaded without trouble. Then I needed to do an online upgrade from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 (via 10.6.4) and there the trouble commenced !! Somewhere along the way, the "Mail" application simply disappeared! On advice from Apple telephone support, I did a "selective" reinstall of "Mail" from the Snow Leopard disk, but the version of Mail it loaded (v4.5) was wrong for use with OSX v10.6.8 and so it kept asking for the 'latest" version (v4.6) and just would not work. I tried a "Fix" download provided on the Apple site, that didn't work.
I spent 2 hours at the Genius Bar of my local Apple Store and they finally found a fix, after some difficulty. Apparently there had been a programming error somewhere in one of the Apple update downloads.
So now I have "Mail" back - but the Mailbox folders now not as they were before - particularly they do not contain my archive Folders that I had been using to store certain historic emails.
I think the folder structure on "Mail" is now identical to that on my "BT Yahoo" screen - whereas before they had been different. My local Apple Store told me that it was practice now to synchronise the "Mail" screen and (for example) the BT Yahoo screen to be identical. This is well and good going forward - but does not help me with access to my historic "email filing system" !!
Anyone help me find those missing folders ?? They must be stored somewhere, but where ??!!
Cheers
Higgins5000Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps. -
The email said Icloud Customer Care but address is ________ I was stupid and didnt notice this when I went into link and singed in with apple ID and password. Now I cant get email. Help!
<E-mail Edited by Host>Apple sends no such emails. You succumbed to a phishing scam, and your Apple ID and password have been stolen.
To recover from this will require assistance from Apple: http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact/
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to. -
my mums ipad mini i need to do app udates on it but its keeps coming up with it to sign in with my apple id iv deleted all the apps of her ipad and signed in with her apple id but its still asking for my id to download the apps with what can i do to get it to go to her id to do the updates thanks
Hi neique,
When you update apps, you will be asked for the password that belongs to whatever Apple ID purchased those apps. They will forever be linked to the Apple ID that they were purchased under, so regardless of where they are loaded, or what Apple ID is signed onto the device that they are loaded on, when you try to update, it is going to ask for the "owners" password.
Cheers,
GB
