I upgraded to Firefox 8.01, but now Amazon and Yahoo! both say I have to upgrade
Both sites say I have to upgrade to the latest browser and won't load some content. For Amazon, the issue is with the Gold Box Deals where they display the message:
/Sorry, this browser is not supported by our Lightning Deals widget./
The previous version of Firefox was supported. What happened? Even the Firefox Google home page also has a similar statement:
/You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!/
That text about not running the latest Firefox version is hardcoded on the www.google.com/firefox site that previous Firefox used as the home page and Google doesn't seem to maintain that page anymore.
Current Firefox versions no longer use that Google site as the home page, but use the build-in about:home page as the home page.
So Google assumes that you use an older Firefox version if you still visit that site and warns you about that and suggests to update.
You can use another page as the home page like about:home or www.google.com or www.google.com/ig (iGoogle).

How do I fix the compatibility issue between my iPhone 4S with iOS 7 and my Pioneer car stereo? There was no problem with iOS 6, but now I get a message saying "this device is not compatible" and so I can't use Netflix for example. How do I fix it?
This is a typical response from the manufacturer. Did you try the fix that Lawrence mentioned. When Apple or any other phone manufacturer update phone software, they have the latest Bluetooth installed. It is usually the problem with the radio manufacturer that they devices are using the older Bluetooth protocols. You can try this support document http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581 and see if anything there helps, but generally it requires the radio manufacturer to update their firmware.

I had an iphone 4s and it worked nice with facetime and imessage using my phone number but it was stolen on December so I buy a new iphone 4s using the same cellphone number but now imessage and facetime does not work with my number, it only works with my apple ID. Please Help me I speak Spanish so if my English is not ok I´m sorry about it.
Do you think that apple has to reset in their database of the old serial number attached with my phone number and that’s why I can´t activate imessage and facetime with my number in the new iphone 4s??I understand all of this Meg; that is why I bought an Iphone; but never expected my phone not even give a at least a 24 or even 12 hours....I work 12 hour shifts and also would expect to have to charge each night but not twice a day or more. I am not always somewhere I can charge my phone.
Your points are true; however it doesn't help me...... -
itunes STILL charged my card, but then told me the computer I was using couldn't be authorized. OK, fine...but, now, how and where do I go to get my downloaded music?
I'm sorry, but your data is gone & there is no way to get it back.

A friend of mine downloaded an app from the internet onto my iPod Touch 4 so I could play pokemon on my iPod, I deleted the app but now iTunes and the App Store won't open, they say that the certificate for this server is invalid. What should I do?

Why does my iPod 4th generation say the certificate for this server is invalid when trying to access iTunes? I've never had an issue until this recently. -
My new (2 months old) 5s fingerprint recognition sensor does not work. It worked well when I first got it but now to get it to work I have to redo my fingerprints every few days, which completely negates the convenience and cost of the phone. I have tried all the tips and they help a little but it always stops working and I have to redo my fingerprints. Does Apple read these comments? Is there an app that might help?
Apple does not read here.
If you want Apple to know send feedback
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
I also have iPhone 5s on day one and it's working since. When it's not registering, I just clean the Home button and it works straight away.
Did you try when registering fingerprint using all angles? It should learn the more you use it.
Did you clean the sensor with a soft cloth?

i made a mistake by saving a web page and moving it to ical on my mac air. now i can open ical but cant access it as it says i have a systems error . how do i fix it ?
Changing body text is not simple. It's a desperate last resort. You need to buy the exact font. Acrobat will not let you edit in a font you don't own. Even then, it's undertain. Consider preparing an overlay in InDesign.

I have the latest version but I am continually told that Firefox is running but not responding and that I need to close Firefox or restart my computer to clear the problem. Why is this happening?

My screen is cracked on my iPhone 5 and it still works perfectly but now, it won't charge. I have two chargers and neither work. Is it my screen that has messed with the charging area?
Probably when you dropped it something inside the phone broke too.

If I bought an album but now want the deluxe version do i have to buy the whole album again because som of the material says album only. That would mean buying the same songs over again.
Delete the three tracks from your library, sending them to recycle bin, then download them again from your purchased history. If the problem persists use the "report a problem" links from your account history to contact the iTunes store support staff.

I have a macbok pro running 10.7.5. My internet has always worked on it but I decided to try changing my router set up - the set up didn't work so I reverted back to the original setup that had previously worked.
Now, I have an Imac running tiger - I can connect to the internet via WIFI or Built In Ethernet with no problem.
When I try to connect to the internet on the Macbook Pro running osx 10.7.5 my internet will not work
Safari Says (You are not connected to the internet) and Google Chrome says (Page is Unavailbe) and lists some trouble shooting options that I tried.
When I go to System prefrences > Network my WIFI and Ethernet both say "Connected" and have a green light next to them.
I have tryed deleting the connections and starting new ones and I have even tried deleting the Location and starting a new one.
Nothing works - no matter what I do, even know the WIFI or ETHERNET says Connected, the internet will not work on the Macbook Pro.
The Internet works fine on my Imac and I have tried everything such as swaping cables but there doesn't seem to be a problem with my internet
or with my router - it all works fine with my Imac running Tiger.
Can anyone help me get my internet working on my Macbook Pro again? Any ideas?Hello ASGR.SYS amd WahWar,
I tried both of your suggestions and neither of them worked.
ASGR SYS - When I tried it your way i got a message saying that the that the diagnostic couldn't repair the problem. It shows the thw WIFI, WIFI SETTINGS, NETWORK SETTINGS, ISP, all turn green. But the Internet and Sever stay red. The thing is, there is nothing wrong with my internet connection as I can connect to the internet on my Imac running tiger, both through ethernet and wireless. When I go to System Prefrences and Ntwork the WIFI and ETHERNET both say "Connected" even know I can't veiw any websites.suggestion
When I tried WAHWAR's suggestion I get a message that says cannot connect to the WIFI network and then it lists your typical trouble shooting tips. Like Make sure you entered the right password and make sure you are in range of the wireless network
Again, just to confoirm - My internet connection is working fne both the WIFI and the Ethernet. When I use it on my IMAC running tiger, everything connects as it should and it works perfectly. But when I try to connect with the MacBook Pro, Even know the connections in the Network settings window show up as "connected" the MacBook still seems to think that my internet connection isn't working at all.
I have tried creating new connections, creating new locations, and I have even gone as far to reset my router and start completely from scratch. The result so far has been the same - the IMAC running tiger will connect - my blackberry and iphone will connect - but the macbook pro running lion will not connect..
I'd apprechiate any other suggestions -
I have an ipod 8generation and i deleted all of my things to download a few shows then deleted them to get my things back but it wont let me it says i have no space. Why?
Hello,
Sometimes that you see something it saves in cache, (or could be that the show is in progress to be deleted) so here's the problem.
Just restart your device to see if the cache of the shows deletes themselves.
Then try to import your music again.
Cheers.
You can use this tool to quickly clean all the cache that needs to be deleted-
