I recently downloaded firefox to my new laptop and it is annoying to have my searches redirected, constant ads popping up telling me to install software.
I do not understand why this is happening, but I do not have time to constantly close redirects and popups, I cna always go back to my old browser, Google Chrome but i wanted to support Firefox. why can't you fix it at your end?
hello, you have a malicious addon present in your firefox profile. please try these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to the firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

I just downloaded itunes onto my new laptop and I am trying to burn songs onto a cd that I had purchased previously and I am getting an error message that states I must authorize this computer. What does that mean?
If the computer's running Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen, click on Store, and choose Authorize this Computer.
If the computer's running Windows, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

I recently downloade Firefox v6.0 but had to remove it via the Control Panel>Add/Remove Program. When I downloaded v6.0 again and tried to re-install it I keep getting an error messsage that said that I had to reboot to fully remove the previous copyof v6.0. However when I did reboot I get the same error message. I'm sort of stuck in a loop and can't figure out how I can re-install v6.0. I am running Windows XP on a Dell Inspiron 9300 laptop.
Please do the following.
Click '''Help '''| '''Check For Updates'''. The option to update should appear and version 3.6.17 should download and install.
However, sometimes things go pear-shaped and you get version 3.5.19. If that happens, repeat the same steps to update to 3.6.17.
Once you have 3.6.17 installed, you'll get the opportunity to update to the current version which is 4.0.1 ''Please don't do that for the moment because you first of all have to update your plugins''. To do the latter, please do the following.
Go to http://www.java.com/en/ and install the latest version of Java.
Update Adobe Shockwave for Director via http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
Update Adobe Flash via http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Update Adobe Reader via http://get.adobe.com/reader/?promoid=BUIGO
For security details regarding the Adobe updates, see: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/advisories/apsa11-02.html
Once you've updated all those, go to '''Help '''| '''Check For Updates '''again to update to version 4.0.1 -
Hi! I just bought a new laptop and have downloaded itunes and signed in. When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs. How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer? Also, will itunes still recognize my ipod on my new computer when I plug it in? I have a Dell with Windows 7 and an ipod nano, I think. Why can't I just plug my ipod in and "sync" it? Will that move my CD music into my library on itunes? Thanks for any help! Soooo confusing!!!
" When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
Correct.
" How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer? "
Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod. -
This type of file can harm your computer. Are you sure you want to download firefox...p 4.0.1. exe comes up when I try to download firefox is this true?
Is Alchemy by Camel Audio safe to download ?
Are you asking about this panel or a similar warning?
You will see this kind of warning for every program that you install and that is not signed by an Apple approved Deveveloper certificate.
I have no experience with that particular audio Unit, but the documentation on the camel site does not mention the compatibility with the newer Mac OS X versions. So be sure to make a full backup of your system before installing the plug-in. Incompatible VST plug-ins can destabilize the system. -
I just purchased and Asus laptop, using Windows 8. I tried to download Firefox, and was warned (by Titanium) of all types of viruses, etc. etc.. I therefore deleted everything . What is this all about? I have been using Firefox on this computer for some time now and have not encountered any problems.
This may be a false positive.
Did you check the support forum for your software to see if this has been reported by others? -
cant access any of my music downloads after accessing my account on a new laptop?where do i find it?
Hi
This forum is for XServes and Servers so your question is not really appropriate. You'd stand more chance of a response if you posted in the correct forum:
https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes
The main page for all the forums is here:
https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa
Consult this carefully before deciding which forum is most appropriate for your question.
Have you tried connecting to the Store using the Apple ID you created when purchasing your music? This is not necessarily the same account you use when logging on and using your laptop.
HTH?

I used to have itunes on other computers, but had to download it on my laptop. I havent had itunes in years. When i finished downloaded it, in my library is a bunch of music...but they are gray and i cannot click on anything. I dont know how to fix this.
Media is only where the user puts it.
Installing iTunes does not and has never caused media to magically appear on the computer.
Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer (or backup of the old computer) to the new computer. -
This is on a windows computer at work. It actually happened on 2 new computers. Before the sync, both the navigation bar and menu button were there. After the sync - Gone! I have tried uninstalling firefox and then reinstalling, but when I reinstall, the problem is already there, and the bookmarks from the sync reappear automatically on the reinstalled version. Is there any way to uninstall the sync?
Currently UI customizations do not sync. However you can add this about:config.

Help pleasE?
Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
I paid and downloaded the creative suite to my old laptop a year or so ago, do i have to de-activate my last one before doing anything on my new computer? I just don't want to have to pay again and I'm not sure what steps i should be taking to put it on my new laptop.
Simply download CC on the new laptop and sign in with your current Adobe ID. It may ask you to sign out of all other computers to use CC on this laptop. That's okay. You can use this on 2 computers, but not simultaneously.

I recently purchased a new laptop and I downloaded Itunes onto it this evening. When I log into my account/library of purchased songs it is now just a "clip" of the songs and it is telling me I have to re-purchase them all again. I would think no matter where I log into or access my itunes account the songs I have already paid for should be there, right? I am so confused!
Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old com[puter, to your new one.
