I used to be able to open Earthlink through a desktop icon but the icon now opens through Internet Explorer. I can open it through foxfire but want separate ic
A friend used my computer to access his gmail account. I had to sign out of my gmail account but am now back. In the course of trying to help him access his account I opened Internet access.
After it appeared that my gmail account was ok I opened my Earthlink account through the desktop icon as usual. However, my password was not longer there and it was not opening in Foxfire. When I clicked on Foxfire my Earthlink account was there as was my password (hidden of course but saved) I want to be able to have a separate icon for Earthlink that includes my password. How do I do that? And I want to delete the one that appreas to go through Internet Explorer.
Was the shortcut created with Firefox, or Win IE?
Type '''about:preferences#general'''<enter> in the address bar.
Turn on '''Always Check Firefox Default Browser.'''

I used to be able to turn off my apps by holding down the icon and then it would turn off, now when I do the same thing nothing happens. Have they changed the way you turn off apps since the new update.
Double tap the home button and swipe upwards on the preview of the App (not the App Icon).

When I designate Firefox as my default browser, I cannot open any destop link to any website, except Mozilla. When I change that designation to Internet Explorer, I can open all destop linked websites, except for Firefox. What do I do?
Sometimes Windows gives you weird error messages when you click a link in another program or double-click a desktop shortcut. These messages usually occur only when Firefox was closed and has to be launched before the link can be loaded. Is that what you're getting? This occurs when Firefox's registry settings get crossed up, as described in this article: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Windows_error_opening_Internet_shortcut_or_local_HTML_file_-_Firefox Windows error opening Internet shortcut or local HTML file - Firefox - MozillaZine Knowledge Base].
If that isn't it, what happens exactly? -
I just noticed that I can no longer select photos out of my finder that are located in my Aperture/Iphoto Library. I used to be able to attach photos to my gmail out of the aperture library in the finder and for some reason, no longer can.
I can't access these images except to go into the applications.
Also, I'd like to import my iphoto library into aperture, and move aperture library to an external drive. I tried the import first, but there wasn't enough space. Then I tried copying over the aperture library onto the external drive but it failed bc it said file was in use.
As it is, I only have 50gb left on my imac, and the aperture library is 150gb. Also, I have over 10k images in both libraries combined and there are tons of duplicates that need to be sorted, and hopefully not messed up because I've organized most of them.
So in short, I need to know how to do the following:
-select photos in finder in aperture/iphoto libraries
-move aperture library to live on external drive
-import iphoto library into aperture library
-eliminate dups but maintain organization
-moving forward i need a better workflow so that I import images from camera, and can organize right away into albums rather than creating projects by default and then creating albums so essentially the photos are in 2 different places, even tho they are referenced
-live happily ever after
Thanks in advance for any support you can offer!!If you're using apps like iPhoto or Aperture then they replace the Finder for managing your photos. The point is that you use the (many) options available via these apps for the things you want and need to do with the Photos.
So, simply, you don't select the photos in the Finder. I'll append the supported ways to do this - which are faster and will yield the current version of your Photos - to the end of this post.
-move aperture library to live on external drive
Managed or Referenced Library? Managed -
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit Aperture
2. Copy the Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching Aperture. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
Referenced - relocate your Masters first.
These issues are covered in the Manual and on this forum hundreds of times.
-import iphoto library into aperture library
FIle -> Import -> iPhoto Library? Have you done this already? If so are you trying to move the Masters to Aperture from an iPhoto Library? Or Consolidate them?
-moving forward i need a better workflow so that I import images from camera, and can organize right away into albums rather than creating projects by default and then creating albums so essentially the photos are in 2 different places, even tho they are referenced
You can't. Every photo is in a Project. They’re the basic building blocks of the Library.
You might want to spend a little time with the manual or the video tutorials. I'm not sure you've grasped the app you've purchased.
The following is written for iPhoto, but about 97% works for Aperture too.
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto/ APerture: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics. This is what you use to attach your shot to your GMail
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto/ Aperture.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto/ Aperture not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.

Hi-I have an old Adobe Audition 1.5 and I used to be able to hear as I was recording. After updating computer and reloading Adobe Audition 1.5, can no longer hear as recording but only on playback. Please advise.
All the monitoring is done through your sound device, not Audition. When you updated your PC, the sound device playback settings would have been reset. One of them includes input socket monitoring, and it's this that you need to reinstate. Since we don't know what sound device you are using, that's as much as we can tell you, except that if it's an internal device, you'll need to open the volume control options and alter it there. This varies between OS versions though...

I have installed the new up to date itunes which i can open on my PC, however when i connect my ipad or iphone i get an error saying i cannot use the device as the require software isn't installed?? I'm very confused please help......
Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
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 AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.) -
We used to be able to watch rented movies from Apple TV right away. Now it takes hours. Is there a setting to change? They used to start playing after a few minutes of starting the download but not now. What's up?
Pat, I've been experiencing this issue intermittently for weeks. It seems to occur with HD content --including HD trailers --exclusively. Tonight has been no exception.
I have done considerable troubleshooting to try and isolate the cause. My results suggest that Apple's servers are to blame but I've not seen many others reporting this issue in these forums lately.
I live only 170 miles from Apple's North Carolina server farm. I assume my iTunes rentals are being fed from there. My broadband connection is a fast one (30Mb down) and consistently tests near that speed when this issue occurs.
I have both a first and second generation AppleTV. When this issue occurs, I will change devices and rent the same movie to see if th device itself is to blame. The issue affects both. I have tried using an ethernet connection instead of my Airport Extreme's 5Ghz wireless connection but that does not remedy the issue.
So... my broadband connection is more than capable, my router is performing optimally (I recently had my local Apple Store test it as well), and neither of my AppleTV's is immune to the issue, so... it must be on the delivery end.
Unfortunately, Apple does not post the status of their iTunes Store's servers like they did with their MobileMe servers. They should. In fact, the AppleTV should display a status message when Apple's iTunes servers are experiencing technical difficulties or heavy network traffic.
I was an early adopter of AppleTV. It has not been problematic until now. This is trying my patience. My advice is that you request a refund everytime this happens. I do.
I am taking this matter to the VP of iTunes services. If Apple's servers are choking, or if their streams are being throttled by ISP's, or internet TV is too ambitious for this country's internet infrastructure, I deserve to know. -
Question
I used to be able to copy or drag and drop links from the address window. Now with the update, only the address is copied or dragged not the link. (Says something about not giving site information). I want to be able to drag and drop or copy links.To be more precise, you can setup a JComponent or JPanel on top of your JavaFX nodes that has a TransferHandler that can convert the (AWT/Swing) images dragged to the app to JavaFX image and then insert it into the underlying node.
As for the file chooser itselft: ListView and the JavaFX composer can allow you to create one quite easily. TreeView can aslso be used to a lesser extend (still a big buggy). For both of these, there are small bugs in the Cell API that may (or may not) prevent from displaying a proper thumbnail in the cells.
You can also use a regular JFileChooser if you do not mind the dialog box having a different LnF from the rest of your application. -

I am not able to turn off voice over. I have tried to do settings -> General -> Accessibility -> VoiceOver and then triple clicked it but the VoiceOver won't turn off. What can I do? I have even tried to reset the machine keeping the data, no use.
A few people have reported problems with the hand gestures since IOS 8. It's not normal, I have don't have the problem on my iPad 4. I doubt it's a major problem but if it happens regularly I'd have it checked out by the Genius bar at the Apple Store.

I used to be able to send text messages to my email. It's now not working. It keeps coming in as a text. Is one of my settings off? Please help?
Verizon is not doing that it is the mail that is doing that.
Check your device settings for email and read the owners manual as to how to set up mail to download. How you want it, leave on server, etc.
Good Luck -
Internet Explorer 11 not opening iframes after KB3032359 update
Basically: Internet Explorer 11 not opening iframes(src is same program folder) after KB3032359 update. (Chrome or Firefox opens all iframes)
We have web solution on Windows 2008 .NET 4 version, wroten C# (Visual Studio 10). Program has left side menu (Panels, menu items have link button, link buttons onclick methods in .cs file. Onclick methods change center iframe source location. ( frm_center.Attributes.Add("src",
"page2.aspx") )
Microsoft publish some updates 11.03.2015 date. One update is (MS15-018 - Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer (3032359) - Critical - Remote Code Execution) for IE11 security fixes. Including one fix for iframe freaks.
After installed this update (Windows 7 Professional 64 bit) IE11 opening our web solution site, after login everything is ok (head section, left menu, center iframe are correct), but when clicking some item in left menu, iframe is not changing source location.
(1 day ago IE is ok, no problem).
Have idea for this iframe problem ?We have noticed similar change in behavior with KB3032359.
Here is one such scenario where it is broken starting with this patch. It looks like plugins are no longer able to access various javascript objects when in compatibility mode.
Two things to start with:
1. The site is in compatibility mode
2. The Adobe SVG plugin is installed and being used.
The actual issue is in an much more complicated application that must be run in compatability mode with the Adobe SVG Plugin.
But here is the issue boiled down:
=================== test.html
===================
<HTML>
<script>
document.write('<frameset cols="50%,50%,0">');
document.write(' <frame id="test1" name="test1" src="javascript:false">');
document.write(' <frame id="test2" name="test2" src="javascript:false">');
document.write('</frameset>');
d = new Date() ;
window.frames['test2'].location ="test2.html?" + d;
</script>
</HTML>
=================== test1.html ===================
<body
bgcolor=green>
Expected test1
</body>
=================== test2.html ===================
<script>
function notify(evt){
alert(evt.target.id + " should now change frame 1 to test1.html") ;
parent.frames.test1.location.href = "test1.html" ;
</script>
<body
bgcolor="000077"
text="FFFFFF">
<embed
src="test2.svg"
width="100%"></embed>
test 2, has a SVG that calls back to this page, and causes frame 1 to change to test1.html
</body>
=================== test2.svg ===================
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" width="100%" height="100%">
<ellipse onclick="parent.notify(evt)" id="svgOval"
cx="25%"
cy="25%" rx="24%"
ry="24%" fill="#000099" stroke="FFFFFF"/>

I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business. The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me. Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts. Please advise me on the steps necessary for removing these duplicates and establishing a syncing solution that doesn't regenerate the duplicates. There are several applications available that remove duplicates, but I am not sure which ones work or don't work. I want information on this, but most importantly I want to understand how to fix this problem permanently. Also, I read somewhere that Mac's new operating system, Lion, can help deal with duplicates. I don't have Lion, but I would be willing to get it, if this would fix the problem.
Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

Illustrator has not been responding for over a week, I can't open or force quit it. I've already uninstalled, reinstalled, and deleted the preferences folder, but the icon in my dock seems corrupt and is causing the program to not respond and I can't delete it.
Tamara,
Did you reinstall using the full three step way (otherwise strange things may linger)?
Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

HT202358 can't open my iPhoto it says i need the upgrader did that and it still won't open.
can't open my iPhoto it says i need the upgrader did that and it still won't open.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I bought a new ipad air but when i install the apps , all of them are gone , but i app store still are and says you can open it. But it can not open.
The apps available to you are dependent on your location. If you are not in the USA, then you cannot get the USA app store. Whilst you may think that is unfair, it has been a part of the stardard terms and conditions you agreed to when you setup the iOS device in question originally, as well as every time you click agree to the terms and conditions.
This is done because of two things, firstly there are many legal and semi-legal reasons that an iOS app store download is available in one territory and not another, in addition to this, it also allows apple to provide language specific content, as well as team up with companies and organisations within individual organisations in order to provide you with exclusive offers, content, and information, which it would not otherwise be able to do.
Rules for the iOS app store are also applied in varing forms for the music store, the books store, and the iTunes U content library.
I can very much understand your fustraition, as someone who spent a considerable portion of his life, especially during the years he grew up, living in California, USA, but now living in London, UK, I too find it very fustraiting that you cannot always get the same content from one country to another, especially when most marketing for iOS apps originates in the USA these days.
I hope this helps your query and helps to ease your fustraition. If you would like apple to be aware of your fustraition, rather than putting it onto a pubilc form which is on monitored in a very limited capacity, then you can fill in the form at http://www.apple.com/feedback where you can give your complaint straight to apple.
