I have two trojans I can't get rid of

I have Trend Micro for mac that keeps find two trojans that apparently came attached to an emal e-card. I have also downloaded ClamXav from the apple store that seems to find these trojans and delete them, but the keep reappearing.
What do I need to do?

Trojans attached to an e-mail are almost certainly Windows malware, and of no harm to your Mac. (I have yet to hear of Mac malware being distributed that way, though it could happen in the future.)
Of course, you should still delete them, but since spam containing Windows malware is very common these days, it will just come back. Note, though, that you should not allow your anti-virus software to quarantine or delete e-mail messages, as that can cause your mail database to become corrupt. If you are using Apple's Mail, use your AV software to find the file containing the message that has the malware in it, and show it in the Finder. In ClamXav, you control-click the malware in the list and choose Reveal in Finder. The file's name should end in .emlx, and if so, double-click that file to open the message in Mail. (This does not open the attachment!) Then delete or junk the message in Mail.
Good luck!

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).

Same error message keeps popping up every hour or two, and I can't get rid of it, also appears whenever I manually refresh the page.

I'm running a script for a game through grease monkey, and I require the script to run 24/7 without me needing to be there 24/7 to press "continue" when this error message comes up "To display this page, Firefox must send information that will repeat any action (such as a search or order confirmation) that was performed earlier." I've looked though all the options and can't find any way to prevent this from happening. I've uninstalled and reinstalled grease monkey, the script, and firefox itself, and nothing makes it go away. I have friends using the exact same scripts with the same version of firefox and they never get the error message. Is there something I can do to get rid of this inconvenience, as it literally does not help at all, I see no purpose in even displaying the message, obviously if I didn't want my browser to refresh automatically, I wouldn't be using the script.

I think I've got it fixed....I "reset" my mail program, I deleted my mailbox then re-created it and I'm all set for now.

App store App shows a red 1 for an update which I already have installed. I can't get rid of it.

I installed the update for iphoto propperly, but in the app store icon in dock the red 1 still shows up and I cant get rid of it.file://localhost/Volumes/Daten/Users/AG/Desktop/Bildschirmfoto%202012-10-08% 20um%2011.11.13.pngfile://localhost/Volumes/Daten/Users/AG/Desktop/Bildschirmfot o%202012-10-08%20um%2011.11.38.png

I think it is a bug. The problem and the question keeps coming up in these columns. The suggestion from Hackintosh is correct; part of the problem relates to other versions of an App being somewhere else in your computer, maybe Time Machine.
I've searched 'More like this' and tried answers like signing out and in again, all to no avail.

I think I have a virus, how can I get rid of it?

When ever I am on the internet and I try to go to different websites, this drop down usually appears and says "safari can not identify the server..." It is either asking about the website I am trying to go to, or trying to send me to a completely different website which is spam. It has never done this before until this week. It happens when I go on facebook, or weheartit, or google. It even happened the hole time I am trying to use the apple website. Should I just take it in to the genius bar? Or is their something that I can do myself to stop it? For the spam addresses I have marked them as 'not safe' but it still continues to try and send me there.

It's not a virus but there is a solution to the, "Safari cannot identify the server" issue. Your ISP may be re directing your browser.
Use OpenDNS for better speed, more security, it's free, and no more re directs.
Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.

2.2 - When are we getting a fix for the crap update? Can I get rid of 2.2?

Ever since my phone did the update..It's a piece of crap. It goes so slow. It freezes ALL of the time. I can't open my text messages several times a day. I don't receive phone calls sometimes, while it's doing it's freezing thing. It has me force close apps over and over again, many times a day.
I've taken the phone into Verizon and they did a "reset" but that did nothing...after about 15 mins of use it was doing all of the freezing and force closing again.
Everyone is having problems since the 2.2. I can't believe more people haven't signed up for this forum on purpose to complain or try and get answers like I did.
Does ANYONE have any answers?
Can I get rid of the 2.2 and go back to how my phone was before because it worked perfectly then.
Is there an update coming to fix this update?
Should I just get a new phone? Or a different phone all together?
Is there some trick I don't know about that will fix all of this crap?
2.2 reminds me of Vista when it first came out. Nothing but bugs and problems for everyone. A totally new way cool system that wasn't perfected before forcing everyone to have it.
UGH! Help anyone?

Search the boards, everyone is NOT having issues, in fact most are not. That is why there are not a ton of messages. But they are there.I was one at one point. I personally, would do a factory reset. That was my cure all. Two if you have a task killer, delete it.
Other things to try before a reset is pull the battery out while the unit is on, wait a minute, reinsert and power up. (Basically a soft reset) Also dial and call *228 and choose option 1.
No you can not go back to 2.1, without voiding your warranty and 2.1 is not needed anyways.
If you are unsure on how to do a factory reset, (I suspect the store did a soft reset) leave a message here and someone will walk you through. IF you do teh factory reset and still have locking up issues, you will need to do a warranty exchange.

HT1267 Q I keep getting a repeat screen that says "unable to download" [name of a song] and gives me the choice to "try again" or "done". I don't want the song and can't get rid of the screen. Ideas?

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

Can't get rid of the # when adding text

I'm trying to edit a document in Indesign. I started by doing a Pre-Flight to correct errors and have one left I can't get rid of.
Originally the Text Error was for a font that ID could not find so I changed the font to what was already being used for other text - an included font - Charlamagne Std Regular
When trying to type text into a text box the type jumps to just above the text box where the pound sign (#) sits.
When entering type, even after positioning the curser inside the text box, it jumps the text to right before the pound sign, on top of the text box, and adds a pink box under the text.
I have attached a screen shot to show this. How to I get rid of the pound sign and pink box to be able to simply type some text in the text box (that the pink box is in)? Thanks!

@dkg62 – to make clear what's going on, select the text frame and show us another screenshot.
There are at least four cases where you can get a text like that. All cases imply, that the font you'd like to use is missing. I simulated this by formatting text with a font weight that is not available by a character style.
1. The most likely case: There is baseline shift applied; here in my case 9pt.
All other cases are academical, because the pink highlighting is aligned with the text:
2. Text frame options, baseline set to a fixed value (zero in this case)
3. Text on path and the text frame options (baseline) is just the standard default. You can see a second #-end of story sign inside the text frame.
4. Text on path and the text frame options (baseline) is set to fixed (zero in this case). The second #-sign inside the text frame is shifted above because of the fixed value of the baseline option of the text frame options. And obscured by the pink highlighting.

I have ical on two computers. Can't get ical (vers. 4) with OS 10.6 to copy to older desk top with OS 10.4 with ical vers 2. Is there a way to do this?

I have ical on two computers. Can't get ical (vers. 4) with OS 10.6 to copy to older desk top with OS 10.4 with ical vers 2. Is there a way to do this?

No. iCal isn't just the program you open to see the calendars, there are other things going on beneath the surface, and it's hooked into the System. 10.4 doesn't have the facilities to run iCal intended for 10.6.

I can't email a photo directly from iPhoto. First, I only have two "themes" to choose from instead of 8, and when prompted to fill in the "to" and "from", the "from" box has "MobileMe" already in it, and I can't get rid of or change it. I have OSXLion

I understand, as that was the place I would change it before 8.3 but now that option of Mail Days to Sync is not available? Any idea why that would be?

That's strange...

I have one random Apple ID that appears only when I go to itunes or App Store. For everything else I have my Apple ID and password all set. Can I get rid of this thing?

This is a Question: I have one random Apple ID that comes up only when I'm trying to access Apps or iTunes. I have another Apple ID with a password that works just fine for everything else. I do not have a password for this random id. How can I get rid of it? I can't perform updates is the big issue.

Jonathan:This seems to make a lot of sense. My only follow up question is: will I have any trouble getting iTunes and
Apps back?
Will apple charge me? I really can't remember clearly, but it seems to me that iTunes and Apps were present on the
iPad2 that was given to me as a gift, but I could be mistaken.
If I am all clear for getting those two stores back with an easy selection, then I will use your solution.
Have a great season, my friend- this was driving me nuts! Thank you so much!

Can I get rid of the underlined hyperlink and just have roll-over links?

In iWeb 2009, can I get rid of the underlined hyperlink and just have roll-over links?

You have to put them on the server where you are publishing your site to. Where are you hosting your site? If it's a MobileMe account then you have two options:
1 - put the photos in a folder, name it "Pics" and put that folder in your iDisk/Pictures folder. Then use the following URL: http://homepage.mac.com/YourMMe_Account_Name/.Pictures/Pic/FileName (don't forget the period before Pictures).
2 - put the "Pics" folder with image files in your iDisk/Web/Sites folder and use the following URL: http://web.me.com/YourMMe_Account_Name/FileName.
If you're hosting on a 3rd party server it would depend on if you're using a domain name or not. I'm not familiar with 3rd party servers so Wyodor, Ethmoid or someone that is will need to point the way.
