I seem to have grey as a default colour for some websites, can't read the page. any ideas for curing this please?

When I visit some webpages - example www.thephonebook.bt.com - I cannot read the pages because they are grey and the info fades into the page and is unreadable. Can I change the colour of website pages or is there something else I can do or undo?

Two suggestions.
1 This page contains some 'zap' bookmarklets. 
https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/ 
Note the instruction at the top on how to use them.
Pressing 'zap' on sites with grey print turns it black.
2 This addon can be used to restyle pages that you use a lot 
[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2108/ Stylish] 
It's rather technical, but setting up a style rule for this site such as 
<pre>* { color: black ! important ; } </pre>
can fix it.

Please state the exact version of Lightroom you are using.

HT201269 New laptop now have 2 versions of iTunes: 1 on each laptop. Syncing is impossible, as is deletion and have words not tunes now. Any ideas about fixing this please?

I am at the end of my rope having spent 2 days trying to rectify an iTune problem. I really need help please. When I downloaded iTunes to my new laptop I got a different version from the 1 on my old laptop. I have the same 11.1 versin installed on both but they don't look alike at all. Why not?
Then I have tried to sync both my iPhone and my iPad from either of my 2 laptops to discover that now I have lost content on both devices, have words instead of artwork now on my iphone or faded writing on the iPad song list to indicate that the tune has gone. Not only have I considered deleting everything and starting again but when I delete a tune from my full old library it still doesn't delete it from the device. I'm going nuts.
Has anyone got any ideas what is going on please? I have authorised both laptops. HELP please?

Part of your problem may have to do with your phone. Go to your iPhone 'Settings' and select 'iCloud' to check whether your sync is being directed there. The free backup space is quite limited (I believe 1GB) so you will receive this type of message if you exceed that limit. If so, you will need to either add more storage space (purchase) or shut it off and direct the backup (sync) to your computer. If all of your music in your library is not showing up in iTunes make sure you have directed iTunes to all of your top level folders containing your music...go to File \ Add folder to iTunes \ "then select your music folders that you want to display".

I have update my Ipad (iOS 5) and now I can't see the lyric of my musics. This problem don't exist for Iphone 4.

I have several lyrics of my musics but after I have updated my Ipad (to iOS 5) I can see anymore.
This problem don't exist for Iphone 4.
How I can fix this problem????
Help me!!
Thank you

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

My ipad has frozen leaving candy crush, I tried to put it off using the on/off button, but now I have a black screen with no function. I can't read the serial number on the back as it is tiny.! any ideas?

My Ipad mini has frozen leaving Candy crush. I tried to put it off using the on/off button, now the screen is black with no function. I can hear Siri if I push the control. It is charged. Any ideas? I can't read the very small printed serial number on the back so can't use the Apple help as they require the serial number.

Hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button for ~10 seconds, or until the apple logo appears. This is called a reset.

Getting this error while opening a folder : This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel

Hi,
While trying to open a folder on my Windows 7 Home Premium, an error comes "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this
action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel." I tried searching on the net but did not get great support for the issue when it happens with folder opening.

Hi Nikunj Shah,
First, I suggest you download
Microsoft Safety Scanner or
Malicious Software Removal Tool to run a full scan.
The error messages here seems to be caused by the corrupted registries, which related with the folder association.
You may take a try to merge the following registry settings to reset the folder association, before that, remember to backup your registry settings first:

You are posting in the "icloud on my mac" forum, but your profile mentions Windows. If using a mac, you need to have iphoto or aperture installed in order to receive new photos via photo stream. If using windows, try posting in the iCloud on a PC forum. You'll get better help there.

Hello there, Capricious13.
There are great pointers in the following Knowledge Base article. Depending on where you see the content and where you want to get it to, this should guide you to putting it in the right place:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
