I need block a particular site, just like in IE when i goto Privacy option I can specify and site & say Block - where can i find thi s in firefox?
I've been getting some junk websites while I am working. I need to block them completely.
Please advise. Thanks,

There is no equivalent in Firefox. You can use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3145/ BlockSite] extension to add a similar feature.
If the junk sites are coming up whilst you are browsing, this may be caused by malware. You should consider scanning your computer with some malware programs. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:

    This is my first time posting here, so I'm sorry, I re-read my post several times and honestly did think I provided enough information, but you're right, it wasn't the right kind. So please (continue to) bear with me, I'm really not trying to be ignorant. I honestly assumed the issue was something I was doing wrong in Bridge, nothing to do with my computer specs.

    It would be nice if you told others the steps you've tried and/or how you used to have your setup.
    Anyway have you tried tapping MORE this will then bring you to
    the selection-list of Audiobooks, Genres, Compilations & Composers.
    Selecting Genres gives you a list of all your music split into genres which was set within the Music downloaded via iTunes or uploaded from CD or which you may have set yourself.
    Then you just select the Genre you want:
    If certent songs are not correctly gategorised you may need to go into iTunes and reselect via Get-info
    >Info>Genre and change it there. That way you should end up with all songs of Jazz or other in 1 place.

  • I need to use an hp 6215 printer with my mac book pro.  the driver installation disk doesn't work.  where can i get a driver that will work?  i use OS X

    i need to use an hp 6215 printer with my mac book pro.  the driver installation disk doesn't work.  where can i get a driver that will work?

    With the Lion it is essentially unnecessary to resort to external driver disks. What's more, most of those disks are incompatible with the OS and should not be used. The system already carries a wide variety of printer description files (aka PPDs, which is what modern printing systems use as "drivers") for a lot of brands. And there was an HP printer update just two days ago.
    Just checked in mine and did indeed find that the HP OfficeJet 6200 Series, with or without Fax, is covered with the latest update.
    So just go thru the motions of creating a proper printer instance:
    Make sure the Mac "sees" the printer on the network.
    System Preferences / Print & Scan
    Click on the + button on the left column
    Select the appropriate type of printer, will use IP for the rest of this
    Select HP Jetdirect - Socket, default for HP network printers
    Type the IP address or look it up
    Name the printer for easy identification on the print dialog
    Let the Mac identify the printer model or manually choose the driver
    Click Add.
    Once the instance pops up in the list, can click on Options & Supplies for further config.

    Hi,
    I'm in Nova Scotia, Canada and when I try to use Siri it loads and loads and then says, "I'm really sorry about this, but I can't take any requests right now. Please try again in a little while."
    I rebooted and it didn't fix the problem. I just got my iPhone 4s (unlocked right from Apple) several weeks ago.

    Siri has been a bit more erratic than usual in the last week or so. Apple has announced a major announcement for 9/12. Conclusions are left to the reader.
    Best of luck.

    how many problems do you need to have with a mac book pro to get it replaced i have had 6 problems and they say they have fixed everything and somthing new happends
    I have had thehad the:
    ram replaced
    Battery
    Audio
    Trackpad
    os operating system
    fans
    And they still won't replace the laptop for me worst buy ever but i have had a imac for 2 months and nothing at all wrong .

    You could try calling Apple and ask for Customer Relations.
    From Readers Digest-February, 2005
    How to Complain
          You call customer service to complain about a product, and you hang up angrier than when you started. That’s customer rage, a feeling experienced by millions of people with a major complaint, says Scott Broetzmann, president an American firm that tells companies how to offer the best customer service. His secrets to getting good service:
    Have a goal
    If you want your product repaired, say so. Want an apology? Speak up.
    Keep it short
    Focus on one problem, and be succinct.
    Stick with it
    You have to invest the time it takes. Don’t get what you want? Ask for a supervisor.
    Skip ultimatums
    Don’t threaten not to do business with them again. Why should they help you if you won’t buy from them in the future?
    Plead your case
    Many companies have information such as how much money you’ve spent with them and how often you complain. If you’re a good customer, they may be more willing to help.
    Be nice
    You’re unlikely to get what you want if you’re rude.
    Good luck.

  • Pop up window says need to upgrade to newer version to work on document from the cloud. go to app store and it says already installed...help

    pop up window says need to upgrade to newer version to work on document from the cloud. go to app store and it says already installed...help. Am trying to work on document from office computer at home on laptop.
    This is what the pop up says:
    You need a newer version of Numbers to open this spreadsheet.
    You can download the latest version of Numbers from the Mac App Store.
    Thanks,

    WS,
    At first, it can be difficult to determine which version of Numbers you are using. The user interfaces are different, but if you are new to the apps you may think you are using the new version when if fact you have launched the older version. Make sure you are using Version 3.x. Then you won't get the message that you need a newer version.
    Use Spotlight to launch Numbers. After typing Numbers into the search field, pick the result that says "Numbers -- Applications".

    The warranty of an iPhone is only valid in the country where it has been bought. You'll have to bring it back to the USA to get it serviced, Apple does not accept international shipments. Any Authorized Apple Service Provider or Apple Store outside the USA will not service your phone, sorry.

    Uninstall the old Flash plugin versions > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS

    And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to:  Open in 32 bit mode  is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.
