I have tried replacing the Firefox start-up page with my own home page choice many times and it will not set--I get the circle with the slash through it when I try to drag the webpage icon to "home."

I am using Windows 7 Professional, and have tried all of the recommended troubleshooting tips for this problem. I do not have the new version of Firefox installed because it had all kinds of problems so I went back to the version I had--I believe it was 3.6.24. Since then, I have not been able to set a home page. Any help out there? Thank You!

Try to drag the tab or the website's favicon on the Home button if you currently drag selected text.
If it doesn't work with dragging the icon then copy the URL to the clipboard and paste it via the Options window in the home page field.
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Welcome to the Apple community.
A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.

Since we tried to upgrade Firefox, it keeps saying reboot computer, but it still won't work and it will not let me uninstall.

We tried to upgrade to Firefox 4.0.1, but now all that pops up is a screen that says "your computer needs to reboot to complete an upgrade" but even after reboot, it still pops up everytime I try to open Firefox. It will not let me uninstall either. Firefox will not open at all.

I got the same problem. I tried everyting.

I've downloaded Firefox 3.6 in order to upgrade to prevent online attacks as advised but when I try to drag teh new icon into the applications folder it says I do not have sufficient priviledges??

I've had an 'urgent' message telling me to upgrade Firefox to 3.6.6 in order to prevent online attacks but when I try to drag the newly downloaded icon into the applications folder a message comes up saying I do not have sufficient priviledges. Can you explain why and what I have to do?

* Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re)install.
* Install the new version that you have downloaded.

HT3819 When I sync my iPod some of my purchases from iTunes transfer, but some do not. When I try to drag the songs onto the iPod icon it shows the 'crossed out' symbol and won't move them.

When I sync my iPod some of my purchases from iTunes transfer, but some do not. When I try to drag the songs onto the iPod icon it shows the 'crossed out' symbol and won't move them. I've tried synching from multiple computers that are all connected with home sharing but it still didn't do the trick.

Installing iTunes does not cause content to magically appear on the computer.
Your media is only where you put it.
iOS devices are not backup devices.
Copy the media from the old computer to the new computer.

Help! I have downloaded Firefox 4 on my Mac which is running OS 10.4.11 and it will not open. It has displaced my previous Firefox 3 . How can I recover previous Firefox (and all my tabs)?

I have downloaded Firefox 4 on my Mac which is running OS 10.4.11 and it will not open. It has displaced my previous Firefox 3. How can I recover my previous Firefox (and all my tabs?)

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

When I try to open a file I created in Pages, I get this: "The required index.xml file is missing." This has happened many times and I have forgotten how I've worked around it.

That is wrong advice and you appear to have repeated it all over the forum.
All Pages files no matter what version have the same file extension, .pages, despite being radically different formats and that is the problem. The System does not distinguish between them when you double click on the file, it opens the first version of Pages it encounters.
You need to right click on the file and choose the correct App version for the file. Unfortunately there are no clues to tell you which is which.
If you are unhappy with this and the removal of over 100 features plus the problems with transmitting files across devices, servers and different versions of OS X, rate/review Pages 5.5.2 in the App Store.

FIrst try a soft reset by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears then let go & let the iPad boot up normally.
If that doesn't help then to make sure you have a strong internet connection.
Try resetting Network Settings
Settings->General->Reset->Reset Network Settings,
You won't lose any data but will have to log back into your wifi networks.
Once logged back in and when the pop-up appears, try entering your password again.

Trying to setup airport for 1st time and it will not connect to internet, we also did not create a new network and cannot find this option again

Trying to setup airport for 1st time and it will not connect to internet?

You might try doing a reset of your AirPort unit. Use a pen or paper clip to press in on the recessed reset button while you plug it in, then continue to keep the button pressed until the status light flashes several times,
For more advice, please describe all your networking gear.

My iTouch will not show movies, but they are showing on my iTunes. When I try and play them through my iTunes it freezes on me and does not work.

My iTouch will not show movies, but they are showing on my iTunes. When I try and play them through my iTunes it freezes on me and does not work. This problem only occurs whenever I am using my netbook. It doesn't happen when I use a different computer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and am not sure what else to do from here.

You may have transferred all your songs, but your iPad is seeing the library as a different entity.
The following article(s) may help you.
