I just upgraded to 4 and I get messages to look at all the new stuff, and/or resart previous session. I just want my old Firefox back. How do I do this?

One of the messages I get says "Now that you've got Firefox 4, learn about all the cool things you can do with your new browser" There are several other little messages that also show up plus the "restart previous session" box. I just want a clean firefox home page to open when I want to use my browser. If I can't get this to stop I'll go back to explorer.

You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''
* http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface
There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.
Please mark "Solved" one answer that will best help others with a similar problem -- hope this was it.

The voicemail system used for the iPhone is different from the voicemail system used on the rest of the Verizon Wireless network. When you activate the iPhone, you lose your saved voicemails from the other system. When you activate a non-iphone, you lose any saved voicemails from the iPhone voicemail system too.

E3000 Pressed reset button on back. I just want my old router back :(

Hey all. I have an E3000 router that I love. One day after coming back from a vacation, I noticed another computer that wasn't mine connected to my network(I live in an apartment complex). I tried logging into my router but had completely forgotten the login info. Knowing me I push buttons first, ask questions later and hit the reset button on the back. Terrible idea, I had no internet connectivity at all wired or wireless. The only way I could connect was through my modem. After chatting with Cisco tech support and changing a bunch of ips, dns. I was able to connect wireless devices. But something was still missing. My printer would still not connect, and my NAS was unreachable. Here is where you guys might help me. Is there any way to return my E3000 back to its original fresh out of the box state? I was able to connect everything to it and everything played nicely with each other. Please, I just want my old router back!
Thanks
Eric

Can you tell what is the IP address of the router? the printer and the NAS?

I want to delete Firefox application How do I do this?

Im unable to access my msn account and think that Firefox is preventing me from doing this in some way I would like to delete Firefox but dont know how to do this Unless someone knows of some other reason why I cant get into my msn account Im just going round in circles right now and desperately need some assistance as I need to access my msn account as a matter of some urgency

It is the only way you can delete them.
You can try contacting itunes support and asking them to remove them. Not sure if they will do this, but it is the only other option that I am aware of.

Firefox keeps making me save files from my school Blackboard, and I don't want to save them, I just want to open them. How do I do this?

Every other computer just asks "would you like to save this or open it?" But on mine, it doesn't ask, it just takes you to someplace you can save it. I'm sure this is a really simple fix, but I can't figure it out! Thanks.

From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665 :
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers (the steps half-way down that page should give you a reset link)
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID passwordcontact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
If you can’t reset them via the above instructions (you won't be able to add a rescue email address until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset - which is likely to be by phone as they need to confirm your id and that it's your account.

I have a book in pdf format and its to big to convert to word I just want to convert one chapter how do I do this?.

How do I convert one chapter from a pdf book to word

Hi charleschavez,
It sounds like you've bumped up against the 100 MB file size limit imposed by ExportPDF and Adobe PDF Pack. To extract pages from the PDF, you can use Acrobat (try it for free for 30 days, if you'd like!). Then you can even use Acrobat to export those pages to Word format by choosing File > Save as Other > Microsoft Word > Word Document.
Best,
Sara

I just bought a macbook pro which worked amazingly the first few days. But now it runs worse than my old computers. How can I fix this?

I've barely had it for a week and its starting to run slow. Wepages take forever to load and its impossible top watch any videos online. I am connected wirelessly. My other much older laptop is working fine on this connection and for a few days my Macbook Pro was lightning fast. Now it runs slower than my 3 year old laptop. Also some videos tend to get choppy when I move the mouse. The audio, however, continues uninterrupted. The laptop also started taking some time to shut down. I bought this open-box from Bestbuy. And right now Im realizing that this is actually a Macbook Pro Mid 2010 after looking up the specs which is strange as the box it was in says 2012.
Processor: 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory: 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 288 MB
Software OS X Lion 10.7.3
Macbook HD: 731.83 GB free out of 749.3 GB.
Could the problem be that this is a 2010 laptop? I can still return it as its been a week.
I've cleared the cache, cookies, and history but it has little effect on the way videos and pages load.

Where did you buy this laptop? I know if I opened a box expecing and having paid for a 2012 model and found a 2010 model, I'd be back at the store demanding an exchange quicker than you could imagine. Open box or not, if you thought you were buying a 2012 model, you should get what you paid for.

Cannot get into Firefox which I use all the time. A box keeps popping up, square saying Couldn't load XPCOM. How can I fix this problem?

The problem started after I restored my computer back to 10/01/14. I am in real estate and have lost a lot of time and work due to this problem. Thanks for your help.

Hi,
Does this also happen in Safe Mode? [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
If so, you will need to do a complete reinstall of Firefox. A visual demonstration on how to do this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_C2eaNj234 however please keep in mind that before you do this, make a back up of the profile folder [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]

Hi, I can't load the videos from youtube or other sites for 2 days now. It waits a long time to open the videos, or waits until all the video is downloaded. It wasn't like that until 2 days ago. How can I fix this problem? Thanks in advance.

can't watch videos, waits a long time to open it, or it never opens it.

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Where is my Norton 360 tool bar on this USELESS version I want my old Firefox back NOW

What the hell are yoy playing at when This version (4.0) wont support the worlds most popular internet security s/ware??????
please tell me how to get v 3.6 or v3.5
NO NORTON 360, NO FIREFOX ON MY computers.

Symantec have released updates for Norton 360 and Norton Internet Security to make them compatible with Firefox 4, for details see http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Firefox-4-compatibility-hotfix-is-now-available/td-p/428894

What happened to the Bookmark all Tabs/Save and Exit/Open previous session feature in 4.0? If this has been taken out then 4.0 is of no use to me. I'll have to go back to 3.6

In 3.6 when ever I closed the browser with multi tabs open it would give me the option to Save and Exit. Then when I reopened the browser it would give me the option to open the previous session. I could also bookmark all open tabs. All of these features appear to no longer be present in 4.0. If this is the case I will be forced to uninstall and reinstall 3.6.

Bookmark All Tabs - you can get it when you right-click on a tab, or use keyboard shortcut Control+Shift+D.
Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

"Safari wants to use login keychain" how do I stop this message popping up

Hello out there!
Everytime I go to a new web page in Safari I box pops up on the screen with the message " Safari wants to use the login keychain. Please enter the keychain password." I click on the "cancel" button and the message disappears and I can get to the web page ok. It's just that having this message box pop up all the bloody time is driving me crazy. Is there anybody out there who knows how I can get rid of it entirely and restore my sanity please?
I don't want to use passwords or keychains.
Thank you so kindly for reading my posting and thank you in advance for any help.
Best regards Wooziewooster.

Ah yes, you may also (or instead) need to "Open Keychain Access, and choose Preferences from the Keychain Access menu, and click the Reset Keychain button. Enter your current login password and you're done." See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8318028&#8318028
