I modified graphics colors and can't get back to a normal display

It does not help to try and delete Foxfire and re-download it. If I start Foxfire and then start Internet Explore, the bad color scheme is applied to Internet Explorer so the problem has to do with Foxfire load parameters.

Are you unable to use Firefox at the moment ?
Reinstalling Firefox will not solve the problem, because it tries to retain settings, but take care, you are in danger of loosing bookmarks and history if you are not careful.
The problem is easier to sort out with Firefox running. Do NOT use any delete settings option when uninstalling , not sure how it is worded - (at least until the profile has been successfully copied somewhere safe)
'''First step''' is to try starting firefox in [[safe mode]] but initially do not change any of the listed settings in the first window dialogue, just click the continue button.

    Try resetting your home screen layout, go to your setting>general>reset home screen layout.

    Have you checked the System/iCloud preference pane?  If it says you're logged in log out and log back in.  If not logged in do so.

  • I've seemed to have deleted my iPhoto app and can't get back to my desktop.  It had numerous pictures of mine included and can't find them in my hard drive where do i find it and restore it?

    I've been trying to do some cleanup on my mac, and somehow have removed my iPhoto from my desktop and can't get it back, i don't know how to get it back.  I've had years of pictures on it and am going to be pretty hot if i can't get it back up.

    Is it in your Applications Folder?
    If not
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • I was kicked out of my email (rcn) and can't get back in. It happened when I blocked all permissions on an ad in the inbox page. rcn said it's a mozilla issue.

    I had removed a pop up ad from my email inbox page and tried to do the same to another one on the opposite side of the page. I think this ad was not a pop up but part of the inbox page. As I did to the pop up ad, I right clicked on it, and then clicked on 'View Page Info'. I then went to the 'Permissions' window where there were 7 categories, all with the 'use default' option checked. I unchecked all of them and checked 'Blocked' for all 7.
    As soon as I closed the window, I was thrown out of my inbox and was sent back to the log-in page for my email. When I went to log back in, I was unable to. I am stuck on the log-in page and it won't let me access my inbox. I called RCN, my provider, who was able to get in right away. I then used my Internet Explorer browser and was able to get into my email inbox perfectly fine. The 'tech' at rcn said it has something to do with Mozilla and tried to get me to reset it but warned me that I will lose all settings. I am hesitant to do that and I would so appreciate you fine folks at Mozilla to tell me what happened and how to fix it.
    Thank you.

    You can undo your permission changes. Probably the most relevant one is cookies. Try one or both of these methods:
    (1) Page Info > Permissions tab
    While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Permissions
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Permissions
    (2) about:permissions
    In a new tab, type or paste '''about:permissions''' and press Enter. Allow a few moments for the list on the left to populate, as this information needs to be extracted from a database.
    Then type or paste ''rcn''' in the search box above the list to filter it to the most relevant domains. When you highlight a domain, you can adjust its permissions in the right pane.
    Any luck?

  • How do I reset my password? I am locked out of my MacBook Pro and can't get back in. I don't remember what my password was.

    I need to know how to get back into my laptop!!! Please help.

    This is the OS X Server 10.6 forum, and the server software isn't usually found on MacBook Pro systems — I'll guess that you're really not running the server software here.   (I mention this because resetting the administrative passwords with OS X Server software installed can be quite different...)
    If you have a second administrative login, you can use that.
    If you don't....  If you're running 10.6, boot the installer DVD and use the Utilities menu to reset your password. 
    If you're running 10.7 or 10.8, here are some official instructions and also see this or this for some related sequences.

  • Offline and can't get back online?

    Trying to send messages to someone on same WiFi network (sitting next to me.) Both using Messages beta. Worked for a bit, then failed. Ensured we both are using same email address on iOS, iTunes, and in Messages Beta for sending (along with phone number).
    If I go to the Messages | My Status menu it shows I'm 'Available'. If I try to click 'Offline', nothing happens. If I try to click 'Available' nothing happens. I can click 'Away' back to 'Available' but it has no effect. I always show up Offline to my friend, and he shows up as offline to me. I've restarted the app several times.
    Also, sending files is **** near impossible. He was able to send a file to me (once) but now neither of us can send. We've cleaned out our contact information, ensured we are sending to the email address saved as our Jabber email, and still nothing.
    Nothing shows in the Console related to it.

    Ug. I'm in the same boat: I'm unavailable, and can't change my status. I can't even see my list of buddies, the window is gone, and I can select that from the menus. I'd toggle the preferences for my accounts, but, alas, the preferences menu item is also greyed out.
    The only piece of UI that shows is the "Messages" window for sending a new message.
    Does anyone have a suggestion about how to get out of this situation, short of uninstaling?

  • I was cut off from the support chat and can't get back on re:  re-installing PS after uninstalling

    I'm using a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) and CS 6 from a dvd
    Keyboard shortcuts suddenly disappeared and I was unable to reset them.
    I held down cmd-opt-shift and started Photoshop. Saw "Delete Photoshop Settings file", released the keys, clicked Yes, and let Photoshop finish loading.  Rebooted computer. Still nothing.
    I uninstalled PS, tried to to install from dvd and gave me "The serial number you entered is invalid."
    Contacted Adobe support chat and Naveen gave me a download link.  Still gave me: "The serial number you entered is invalid."
    Then firefox crashed.  Tried to get back on chat and could not and now my only "recommended option" is Forums.  So here I am.  Don't think that there's much anyone can do to help as I have uninstalled PS, but hoping to hear from Adobe support...

    Got back onto chat but have to contact tech support during their PST hours
    to deal with keyboard shortcuts problem.

  • Tried to put OS Mavericks on my mac, but not enough memory. Seem to be stuck and can't get back to my original set up. Any ideas how I get out of this. Thanks.

    I tied to install OS Mavericks onto my mac and now find there is not enough memory. Any idea how I get back to my original set up. Bit of a novice, so any advice welcome. Thanks.

    Not sure what you mean as it shouldn't have installed at all if it didn't meet the system requirements.
    But here are some step by step instructions to revert.

  • Created new iPhoto library and can't get back old one?

    I was importing photos from my iPhone to my MacBook Air and it got stuck on one photo and wouldn't move. It wouldn't let me quit the application so I had to restart my computer. When I turned it back on it told me it had detected inconsistencies and stuff, so I let it do it's thing, but then it told me that I needed to create a new iPhoto Library. I did, then the next time I opened iPhoto, it was on this brand new, totally-clear-of-any-photos Library. Where have all of my photos gone? How can I go back to my old photo library? Help!

    Hold down the option key while launching iphoto until the select library window appears - how many libraries do you see?
    Probably the quickest recovery is to restore your backup from just before you had the problem

  • Windows won't install and can't get back to mac os

    I printed boot camp instructions.  I partitioned the disk with no problem, inserted windows 7 and it came up a black screen with blinking cursor.  I cannot get out of it and if I restart, it says to insert bootable disk.  I cannot get mac os to come up.  What can I do?

    Reboot, hold the option (alt) key down at the chime, when the boot manager loads select Mac OSX as the startup disk. When OSX loads go to Apple>System Preferences>Startup Disk and select OSX as the default.

  • Help!!  I messed with 'users' under Mac HD and can't get back!!!

    I got this computer from my father-in-law a while ago and went to change his username to mine. I thought i did so successfully. I also grabbed the shared folder and chucked it in the trash (something I'm sure I shouldn't have done). Later I'm browsing on Safari and it unexpectedly quit. I opened it again and all my settings (bookmarks, etc.) were gone. I restarted my computer and nothing changed. My Mail is completely reset, my address book too and who knows what else. All I want to do is go back.
    Presently under users I have 3 icons:
    1) first one is "Dean" with a folder icon. Dean info states that it's 1.49 GB in size and created back in March 2005
    2) then there's "JON" (my father-in-law's name) with the house icon. JON info states that it's 12.3 MB in size and created last night (when all this happened).
    3) lastly there's "Shared" with a folder icon. Shared info states that it's 4 KB in size and created last night as well.
    Clearly the Dean folder is where all my past history and info is and is what I want back. When I click on it I get the following folders: Desktop Documents, Library, Movies, Music Pictures, Public, etc. Each folder with my personal documents, pictures etc. So it seems to me that everything is there but how do I get it back to Dean being the default user. please excuse my inept terminology and knowledge in these things. I do hope someone can help me get my safari settings, email and address book back. Thank-you.

    el_dinyo,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You may have some opportunity to recover from your ill fated attempt to change usernames.
    Please read Recover from renaming your Home folder by Dr. Smoke. Although I doubt that it will help recover items from the deleted shared folder it may restore a semblance of normalcy regarding some of your other problems.
    If the files in the shared folder are critical, stop using the computer and consider Data Rescue II for file recovery.

  • HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One Printer --reverts to offline mode and can't get back online

    What is the quickest, easiest way to get the printer back online?   There seems to be no way to get it back online.  I'm using Windows Vista OS.  Printer is running on wireless network (2wire).  
    Appreciate a quick resolution.
    Thanks!

    Honestly, if you want to kill this problem quickly, go buy a standard router (Linksys, Netgear, etc) and install it "on top" of your 2wire, connecting all devices to the new router.
    DSL routers are notorious for connection and reliability problems.
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.
