I'm typing dates across the top row. I want the date to be 12/13 and the program changes it to Dec. 13. It is making me mad. How do I get it to stop doing the change? I want a numerical number.
How do I get the numbers program to type a numerical date across the top row? It wants to change it to Dec. 13 instead of 12/13.
Amy,
I hope that you can forgive Numbers for converting the date you enter as 12/13 into the default format of "December 13, 2011", one that is popular with many users.
You can change to any of the supported date formats by using the Cells Inspector, Date and Time options.
Select the top row of cells and use the inspector to set the format. You may do this before or after making the entries.

whenever i type in the google box to search every letter i type firefox asks what would i like to use to open this file this is so annoying how do i get it to stop doing this?
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.

every time i get on my computer and click on imessage and facetime a little box pops up saying an internal messages error occurred or an internal facetime error occurred....but my question is how do i get it to stop doing this or how to stop it.
For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,

I always have trouble with my mailbox. It is always asking for my passwords but everything has been verified. How can I get it to stop doing it and start working????
There is only one thing that happens -- the Server does not respond.
Your mac concludes that you must have entered the wrong password. That may happen once, but then other issues become more likely, and it keeps asking for a new password.
Sometimes the Server is down for maintenance. Sometimes something is configured wrong. Some services do this on purpose to get you to use WebMail (pick up your Mail with your Browser) so they can show you some ads. -
When I burn dvd in iPhoto, it comes out with original photo plus separate close up photos of each face in original photo. How do I get it to stop doing that?
I am reading this post in the iphoto for iOS forum. The iPad does not burn photos to a DVD. Perhaps you'll get some assistance if you posted in th general iPhoto forum.

i recently got IOS 8 and I like it but there is one problem on my camera roll it says i have 600 photos but i went into setting general and about and it says i have 2,743 photos my photos keep on duplicating how do i get this to stop. i have a iPhone 5c
Hi Bpaitin,
Go to Settings>General>Usage, and under iCloud, click on Manage Storage>click on your device, then under Backup Options, turn Photo Library off and then back on. See if that clears it up.
If it does not, reset your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Slide to Unlock screen redisplays, see if the issue is resolved.
Cheers,

I am frequently being asked by my iPad for my Apple ID. This has only happened since the last update which I installed 4/24/2015. I checked the settings but can find no way to disable this new feature. It is very annoying. How do I get it to stop asking for my ID?
Hello, Elanhui.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you constantly receive a prompt to enter your Apple ID password after an update. After an update, you may be required to confirm the password for multiple services. I am unsure what service is requesting your password as this sounds like one is missing. However, the prompt should inform you what service needs this information. I would recommend entering your Apple ID password for all services that are labeled iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch in the article below.
What to do after you change your Apple ID email address or password

Whenever I open a new window of Firefox, the new window opens at the hope page (like I want it to), but then a tab opens up with the new window. I want Firefox to stop doing this. When I open a new window I just want the window to open. I don't know how to fix this as I have know idea how I made this happen. This first happened when I hit control + N to open a new window, but I didn't hit the "N" cleanly. I pressed one of the other keys around the "N" and this issue started.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

As stated above, Firefox disables some plugin the bing homepage uses. I don't want this plugin disabled. Firefox doesn't tell me what plugin it is. I don't want Firefox, mozilla, or anyone else deciding for me what plugins should and should not be disabled. This is my computer, not yours. How do I stop Firefox from acting like it knows better than me what plugins to disable and when?

At 1st I thought this was because I'd forgotten to properly close my last session, but then I realized that it happens every time.

#* Type '''about:support''' into the Firefox address bar and press the enter key.
# At the top of the Troubleshooting Information page that comes up, you should see a button that says "Copy text to clipboard". Click it.
