I just discovered that Baudi has been added to my safari search options and I don't want it. How do I remove it?
I want to remove BAIDU from my Safari browser search engine choices. I read to go to "applications" select "toolbars" and select "uninstall Baidu" . The problem is "toolbars" is not on my list of "applications". How do I remove Baidu? I don't know how it got there. My niece sent me an email partially in Chinese and perhaps it was installed when I opened it, Thanks for any help.
There is amazingly little on the web about this unwanted software regarding Safari. Also just noticed I repeated the same nonsense removal instructions you found. Sorry for being a parrot.
Couple of things to try.
1) Close Safari. Open the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ folder. Press Command+2 to change it to List view, then click Date Modified to sort them by time/date. Newest date should be at the top. If there's anything there with a date of just the past of couple of days, move it to the desktop. Launch Safari. Is it gone?
2) There are actually three folders named Internet Plug-Ins. Check the ones in the System folder, and in your user account Library folder. Again, looking for anything added just recently.
I saw the same page Linc posted to, but it didn't dawn on me at the time what the relation may be. Open the System Preferences and click on the Language & Region icon. If you see any Asian languages in the list as shown below. Highlight it and press the minus button to remove it.

In IOS8.1, Reminders App, is there a way to set an alert to notify you that something has been added to a shared Reminders List?
This sounds like the age old problem with keychain & Safari. I don't know of a way to solve it without using something like 1Password.
The iOS app has it's own built in browser, so it has more control over what gets autofilled. Safari on OS X has an 1Password extension that handles account selection & autofill etc.
Keychain is great in principle, but it quickly falls down when you need tight integration with many ID's & different use cases (work, home etc).
I'd suggest you submit feedback to Apple about your thoughts. I did so years ago about this issue & this is how far we have come (back to the point where me.com synced passwords) :^)
http://apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
Other tools like lastpass or keypassx may also help if you want to truly segregate password storage, but that doesn't fix autofill, the way around that issue is to dedicate one browser for work. -
We use an add-on in one of our online solutions and we've identified a security vulnerability. The issue has been addressed in our latest add-ons and we would like to know how we may blocklist our previous player through a firefox update?
You can file a bug report to do that request.

when I start a new tab yahoo search comes when I start a new tab yahoo search comes and I don't want that. how do I get a different web site to open?
You need to figure out what you have installed which changed that action to Yahoo from a blank tab, which is the default action in Firefox; and then get rid of that add-on. Then you can can install an add-on which allows you to select what you want in the new tab.

Help! My sister just got her iPhone 4. She was told that it was kept for almost a year. She has been charging it for almost 6 hours! Still, it is only 7% charged. Is it normal? How long will it take to charged it fully??? Thanks!
Not sure what "being kept" means. If it means it was new in the box and not used for a year then the battery is probably near dead as lithium ion batteries need excercise (a full charge cycle per month). If this is what you mean she will need to put a new battery in it.

How long should it take to update an I 4 phone to the new system. Mine has been going for 3.5 hours and is not finished, but I don't want to disconnect and lose my data.
Mine took about an hour or so but it mostly depends on your modem and processor speeds. You can check the progress by clicking your iphone on the left and then checking the download progress. As long as that is moving I would just leave it and wait but don't let your computer shut down.

I need to delete music off my ipod how can I do that with out taking all the music off the ipod?
Under the Music tab for your iPod Sync preferences with iTunes, choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres instead of entire library.
Select the iTunes playlists, and/or artists, albums, genres you want transferred to your iPod followed by a sync. This will remove the music from your iPod that you don't want on the iPod. -
When opening Iphoto (Iphoto 9 version 8.1.2) I went from hundreds of photos to 0. I looked in my harddrive and could not locate the pictures under library or photos. I tried rebuilding the system (ctl. alt. and opeing the program). I would assume all my pictures are lost except for when my screen saver runs, I still see all of my old photos. How can I retrieve my photos?
go in to finder than photos they should be somwhere in there. after you find them select add to iphoto

My iPad show that it has been crashing
In diagnostics and usage to show that it has been crashing, in a variety of apps and general use, uTube video, etc. My IOS info says its up to date..I see there are others with specific problems...not sure where to begin?
These "crash" reports shouldn't be taken seriously unless they are effecting your use of the iPad.

I just "upgraded" my iPhone with the new software. As a low vision person, your phone was always previously helpful. I now discover that I cannot use the phone easily. The font has been changed to a very narrow typeface and the greyscale has been altered to reduce contrast. The background is now grey as well rather than white. The accessibility options permit only three choices. First, increase type size. With the the low greyscale, thin typeface, increasing type size makes it HARDER to read. There is no option for contrast enhancement. Third, the background switch options suffers from the same deficit as the white background. The third choice is to enhance brightness but without the option to change contrast, this is useless. Am I missing something? Can this be fixed? How? When? Are you planning a similar negative "update"/change to other devices?
I am having the same problem. I have gone through every setting, set the bold font, contrast, larger font....everything I could find in any post to try and help - and between the new color scheme that makes it virtually impossible to use the pictures of my grandchildren as background (the picture colors now become the theme colors - which now match the colors of many of the "flat" icons...) I am finding the phone very difficult to use--espeically things like the calendar which has now become very hard to "see" and use. If I can't revert this thing to iOS6, I may have to get a different phone.

I just saw a message that iWeb has been discontinued by Apple. It suggested changing to EverWeb. Has anyone used this or do you have another recommendation?
Hi
I have now used Everweb to transfer a website from iWeb & am now working on transferring a second website.
I cannot recommend Everweb highly enough. I am an amateur, so iWeb was the easy option for me. Everweb is just as easy to use and very similar to iWeb. New features are being added every few days.
I am extremely impressed by the excellent and prompt service from both the forum and support. All my questions have been answered (& there have been many of them!)
Everweb is complimented by an excellent site Everweb codebox which has developed more widgets and codes to add to Everweb. Roddy from Everweb codebox has been invaluable by answering questions on the forum & generally complimenting the Everweb team.
I have purchased the Everweb program & Hosting. This gives my 1 click updating and works seamlessly. The price is competitive and the support exemplary.
All in all, I am delighted with Everweb, excellent program & excellent support!! I would not hesitate in recommending it to anyone.
In answer to your question...buy it!!!!

How can i delete a toolbar that has been added?
Somehow I have a toolbar for a shop at home site that has been added to my list of toolbars. It takes over my browser when I'm surfing and takes me to places i have not selected. How can i delete this toolbar? I believe I have the latest version of firefox and i am running windows 7
This sounds like spamware you might have installed by accident. If you go into Add-Ons (Firefox -> Add-Ons) it should be under 'Extensions'. Click the 'Remove' button and that should get rid of it.
You might also find it under 'Programs and Features' in Control Panel. Remove it if it's there. -

I have a Macbook Pro and have just purchased a GSP hidden objects game. It says on the box that it is compatible and when I try and install it it tells me that installation has been successful. However, it then says that PowerPC games not supported. Help?
No game icon appears on my desktop and I don't know what I can do.
Really ****** off as i've not played these games since switching from a windows PC to a Mac and was really excited!! All I want is to be able to play my new game that arrived in the post today. If anyone can help I would be really really grateful....
The game says that it needs Mac OS X 10.3 or higher to run so I don't understand what the problem is or how I can fix it!!beckyj3,
the last version of Mac OS X which supported running PowerPC apps on Intel Macs was Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard). If you’d like to play this PowerPC game on your Intel MacBook Pro, then you’ll need to install Snow Leopard on it and boot into Snow Leopard. (Note that the last MacBook Pro which natively supported Snow Leopard was the Early 2011 model.)
The game was almost certainly published before Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) was released, so back then, all versions of “Mac OS X 10.3 or higher” would have supported running that PowerPC game.
