I'm currently using Safari on my Mac OS 10.7.2 with no problems. Do i need to get rid of Safari to use Firefox? Can i install both and use either?

I went to Vistaprint to build a free web page. Info on "how to" says I need Firefox to make edits. I think basic information questions like this should be addressed for us computer novices before I press the download button. What do I get with Firefox thats better than Safari? Will it work with Mac OS 10.7? What are the basic features & benefits? All the reviews I've read only address problems. Is this program any good at all?

You can use both.:)

  • Need help getting rid of Safari popups on Macbook air.

    Yesterday I chose to download some kind of program that was supposed to let me download content on a certain website - when I was getting ready to install the program there was a selection bubble I didn't see until the last second that said i would allow mackeeper to install on my computer. After seeing that i realised that the program was obviously no good and stopped the download as soon as possible but i fear it was too late.
    The first issue that I noticed was that Safari preferences won't let me open new tabs with my top sites anymore. I can select the option but as soon as I click out of preferences it seems to reset or something and just goes back to opening new tabs and windows with my homepage which is the apple website.
    I didn't notice any other issues after that that I can remember but last night I upgraded my system to the Yosemite software and as soon as it completed I noticed a HUGE increase in the amount of safari popups I get - like everytime I click on a link I get a new tab opening with ads from mackeeper2 or adcash or something like that and I'm also getting little popups that open on the webpage Im on. I tried downloading the adblock and javascript blocker extensions and Im getting the little notifications saying that its blocking about 5 popups per page i visit but its still doesn't stop the new tabs opening everytime I f***ing click on anything.
    Also I don't know if this is related but I haven't been able to log into my yahoo account either - i put in my password and it seems to let me in but then when i try to ask a question on yahoo answers it keeps asking me to log in again.

    Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones. If you're willing to use a tool to remove it(you don't need to, but may find it easier), you can instead run Adware Medic; this link is a direct download.

    Firstly, what is the source of the 10.6.4 disc? Is it the original installation disc for your MacBook, or one 'borrowed' from another computer?
    It isn't the retail version, because that's 10.6.3.
    Assuming it's the correct disc (i.e. the one that shipped with your Mac), you need to boot from it again.
    OK the language page.
    From the installer screen, ignore the continue button, go to the menu bar and choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    In DU, select your internal drive in the sidebar (the top item with the makers name and serial no.).
    Run Repair Disk. If that comes up as disk OK, click the partition tab. Select the partiton from the drop-down above the graphic; 1 partiton is all you need.
    Go to the options button and ensure that the partition scheme is GUID and the file system to Mac OS Extended (Journalled). Name the partiton (usually Macintosh HD), click Apply.
    When the Macintosh HD volume appears below the drive name, quit DU and see if you can then install.
    If the screen after the language screen doesn't show the menu bar, it may be necessary to use another Mac to do the job with the MB in Firewire Target Disc Mode. If it won't boot in TDM, or the MB doesn't have FireWire then it's getting very difficult.

    I'm using an older mac (2008 iMac). Things were getting slow and I used a program called DupZapper to get rid of a lot of duplicate files. It worked and my computer is running better. The only problem is now InDesign crashes at startup. I have the original disks and serial number (CS3)  The error message is "required resources are missing".  Same message if I try to uninstall.  Any clues as to how to re-install?

    reset your preferences and retry launching id:  InDesign Help | Setting preferences
    if that fails, uninstall (properly with the uninstaller), clean and reinstall per Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

  • Can you stream video and use the computer at the same time on a mac mini with hdmi

    Can you steam video and use the computer at the same time? I have a mac mini with hdmi.

    Shouldn't be a problem, unless you want to view it in Full Screen Mode at the same time with only one display.

    I have 2 apple ID and I need to get rid of one to use icloud on my iphone and my ipad. Any suggestion?

    Hi Pierre,
    There's no way to merge them yet, so all you can do now is make 1 of them the master ID for iCloud. You have to continue to use the other for previous iTunes, Mac App Store updates. Have you read:

    Generally YES.
    It's possible to hold separate iTunes library's on a single machine.
    Generate two new folders inside the Music folder of the Mini and name them differently; e.g. man and woman.
    Copy your whole library into "man" and your wifes into "woman"
    Go to sharing in the system settings of the Mini and share the Music folder in your network.
    After copying the whole library's to the Mini you may point iTunes to the new location at startup by holding the option key (alt) at the keyboard.
    iTunes will then ask you where the library is located.
    Point it to the matching library on the Mini.
    That's all.
    Lupunus
    PS ... If you both use only the Mini you have to setup a user account for each and just copy the whole library to the Music folder in particular.

  • I have 2T imac running lion Can I re-partition and use one half as a back up disk?

    Bought a new mac in November and it is refused to start up yesterday. Spoke with Apple  and they said I should make sure I do regular back ups in case I l ose my hard drive?!?! I did a clean install of the Operating software but was advised to erase and install.
    I have taken all my important stuff off and can reinstall my programs once I get to the next stage so what I am wondering is
    I have 2T imac running lion Can I re-partition and use one half as a back up disk for use with time machine so that I do not have to buy an external HD?
    Cheers J

    You could partition the drive, I read that Time Machine will work on if you HD partition.
    BUT, it will do you no good if you HD fails.
    Usually, if a HD fails it's the entire drive that is dead not just a partition.
    So your time machine back would be on a dead disk, useless!

    There should be only one version for the Mac, but it you have to choose then use 64-bit.

  • I do not want to update to Lollipop right now.  How can I get rid of the notification that wants me to install.  It says 'Install Later' or Install Now. I don't want to do either so how can I get rid of this notification that keeps popping up?

    I do not want to update to Lollipop right now.  How can I get rid of the notification that wants me to install.  It says 'Install Later' or Install Now. I don't want to do either so how can I get rid of this notification that keeps popping up?

    You cannot stop it from popping up.
    it will continue every few minutes until its installed.
    just keep using the back button near right side of home button.

  • While trying to down load the current update to Itunes i get the message "Older version of Bonjour can not be removed" and Itunes gets interrupted and wont finish update. Can someone help with this??\

    while trying to install latest itunes version i get this message "Older version of Bonjour can not be removed" and the download gets interrupted and doesnt finish. Can someone help?????

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Can I install both mac os and Windows 7 on MacBook Pro?

    Can I install both mac os and Windows 7 on MacBook Pro?
    I saw Windows XP picture on this website. And I would like to try mac os while using Windows 7.
    And does Windows 7 on MacBook Pro support high quality game experience? Im sick and tired of reducing to low quality graphics to play some nice games such as GTA 4 and new released games. Hope I can play games with high quality.

    If you have a brand new MacBook Pro or have installed Lion on an older one, you can only instal Windows 7 on Boot Camp (for some reason you can't use Vista or earlier). If you have a Windows 7 CD and a license, it's pretty easy to do via Boot Camp. See here for instructions: http://support.apple.com/manuals/#macos
    If you install via Boot Camp, Windows 7 will run as fast as your computer is. Generally, MacBook Pros are very fast laptops, so you should be pretty good. That being said, just like any laptop, if it's a cheaper MacBook Pro, you won't have access to as capable graphics processing as more high-end machines. So if it's a newer game with crazy impressive graphics, you will likely not be able to tap into the highest settings on the game on any laptop.
