This is the iPad forum. What you are describing with your specs is a iMac not an iPad.
If this is occurring on an iPad then here is some info:
This is happening because of bad ads on that site. These ads are designed to randomly redirect mobile device users to other sites. It has nothing to do with your iPad. The random nature of the re-directs is intended to confuse the user and keep this garbage below the radar.
Turning OFF Javascript (not Java - the iPad doesn't even run Java) bypasses the problem because the mechanism implementing the redirects uses Javascript. This is not really a solution, however, because turning Off Javascript affects all sites and will certainly cause problems.
Complain to the original site to get these ads removed.

    every time i try to play a game it blinks the game and the go to home screen what to do

    Try closing out of Recently Used Apps.  To do this, double click the Home button to bring up the list of Apps.  Then tap your finger over one of them and then tap the red minus sign that appears in the upper right corner of each to remove them.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue, try a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

    The problem does not happen in Safari or Chrome.
    I've restarted Firefox but it does not help.
    Let me know if there is anything I can do to make the error stop.
    Thanks!

    hello flabs, this is likely caused by an outdated extension. in case you have the social fixer addon installed, please update it to the latest version that is available at http://socialfixer.com/blog/category/releasenotes/.

  • Installed new hdd in MacBook Air 2008, question folder and forbidden sign in screen, what to do?

    Hello
    I installed new hard drive to my MacBook Air 2008 and when I try to install lion/snow leopard/ mavericks it won't show up the disk. I can't find the hard drive.
    I don't now what to do. I tried everything. I spoke with a guy in macsupport here in Sweden and he said I have to buy snow leopard and install it from the original dvd in order for computer to format. My computer is old like I said its from 2008. I've never update it or upgrade. This is first time. It laid in storage for three years so I decide it to use it again but hdd was damaged so I had to change it, and now all I get is flashing question folder and forbidden sign, you know the sign for auto traffic.
    Is it true that the only way to restore or to find the new hdd or to boot the question mark and forbidden sign marks by installing osx from its original dvd or buy snow leopard?
    After I spoke with the guy from Mac support, I got little suspicious so I spoke to another one and he told me all I need to do is format hdd with the help of a sata hdd cable with help of another macbook and then I was good to go.
    What do u think?
    Should I buy snow leopard or can I burn it from my sister computer?

    I first would try Target Disk Mode to format and install an OSX on the new storage drive.

    You will need a OSX source that is compatible with the MBA.  If you have the original, use that.

  • I wish to put my photo albums in alphabetical order.  Advice was to right click on pane at left.   I do not have a left pane on my i-pad and only have touch screen,what do I "right click" with and how do I get a "left pane" in my Photos folder?

    I would like to put my i-pad photo albums into alphabetical order.  The advice received previously was to "right click" on an album in the left pane.   I do not have a left pane in my photos folder, how would I get this?   Also I only have touch screen so what would I "right click" with? thank you

    I don't have iPhoto on my iPad, so I can't help with that, but you must have looked at advice for a Mac computer? Maybe browse the iPhoto for iOS forum?

  • Screen problems - black screen and lock-up (plus HDMI issues)

    Hi, I'm not sure if these are related to the same fundamental issue, but they are both serious problems that need resolution.
    I have a new mid-2012 MBPretina.  I am on all the latest updates (10.8.2).
    The first problem is the most recent, and the most serious problem.  Since I updated the Java a couple of days ago I've been experiencing random black screens and lock-ups.  Essentially, what happens is that sometimes when I perform an action (opening an app, clicking a link on a webpage, performing other kinds of in-app actions, etc.) the computer screen will go black.  About half the time I can, through my own memory, try keyboard combinations to quit or force quit the most recently used app (the one where the action was just performed), and I will get some glimpse of the underlying apps, while the menubar and other areas will remain black until I move a window on top of the black space.  Sometimes no key combinations work and I am forced to perform a hard restart with the power button.  This is a serious issue, obviously, since I will lose current work/progress in my apps.  I'm not sure if this is because of the new Java update, or has to do with something else, but it started happening shortly thereafter, over the last 2 days.  I work most of my waking day on my laptop, and this "black screen of death" has happened about 5 or 6 times a day.
    The second problem I have been experiencing since I starting using my MBPr with external HDMI displays in August/September.  The problem is that I will plug the MBPr into an HDMI display, the screen will temporaliy go black, and then bring me to the login screen (as if it's crashing, albeit softly).  This happens about 1 out of 4 times nowadays.
    How can I fix these problems, especially the first?

    UPDATE:
    Clearly there's a problem because a third of the way through a clean reinstallation from scratch it black screened again. Hmmmm.
    Now this is not good. Problem is I can't rule out potential updates from Apple that might have caused this either.
    The search for solutions continues.

  • SunMC - Process is forking and reaping child processes. What's that?

    Hey folks,
    Im really new to the sysadmin world, and I think maybe my company really didn't think things well when they've decided to put me doing this, hehehe.
    I work with a general queue for which my team receives tickets with different kind of problems, among them, Automation Alerts (I think you all know what Im talking about).
    Recently (maybe 2-4 days) we've started to receive an Automation Ticket with the following message:
    Solaris Process Monitoring Process Monitoring Base03 CPU
    time for reaped children 107.1 30.0 Process is forking and
    reaping child processes.
    I've found almost nothing about this, and even when I think what's this ticket about (I've closed 2 or 3 of them stating no issues were found), I really want to understand and know where to look and if something can be done about this, because processes on the server and general state of it seems in good condition and nothing looks bad, apparently. The server is a Solaris 10 with zones.
    Can you shed some light on this? I'd appreciate all the help you can give me.
    Thank you and regards all.

    The same thought occurred to me, except I started seeing "failure" logs in JAMF the morning after we run maintenance policies. All of these failures were due to the Mac not restarting, which isn't really a failure - more of an inconvenience - since the second part of the policy (removing eTrust antivirus and restarting is part 1, installing SEP 12.1 and restarting is part 2) runs immediately on restart no matter what time of the day it is.
    In some cases the macs did not restart because the user had unsaved work or something else that would cancel logout. In this case, Casper prompts the user to restart and waits until the OK button is clicked, then counts down 1 minute and restarts. In the other case, nothing would have prevented logout yet the computer still did not logout and then restart, leading me to believe that the reason the Mac did not log out was a locked desktop, and since I am telling System Events to simulate a gui log out, this would be blocked by a locked desktop.
    The problem basically stems from the following two issues: 1. I am not to force a logout or restart when a console user is logged in and 2. Casper will not automatically log a console user out on it's own OR restart the computer if a console user is logged in - and then I have to rely on the end user to follow on screen instructions since the Casper restart prompt can be moved to the side and effectively ignored.
    When no restarts are required for the various policies we run, this is not an issue. And anyway, I originally just wanted to know what process is running when a desktop is asleep and locked, but no screen saver is active...

  • Cannot directly open the browser from the icon. "problem loading webpage" and "timed out" are the messages. Access was accomplished by using yahoo messenger and opening my email. if I attempt to open a new page, I recieve the aforementioned warnings.

    no link to open access to the internet. I used Yahoo Messenger, clicked on the 'mail icon' and since Firefox is my default it opened and I was able to continue from there. If I try to click File, open New Page, I get the "problem loading webpage" and "connection timed out" messages

    changed my homepage to Yahoo. Now Firrefox works but still cannot access ANYTHING 'Google"!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.
