I've blocked popups but they still keep coming. What can I do?

I continue to get popus through Internet Explorer, which I've removed from my program list. How can I block ALL popups, particularly those that come through IE?

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs. 
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

I forwarded an email and now it is coming in with my time machine in 100's just keep deleting them but they still keep coming in. How do I stop it I never asked to recover them

I forwarded an email. and now it is coming in via time machine I never asked time machine to recover it and have deleted 100's How do I stop it

Open time machine and shut it off.
Chances are you will still be receiving the emails, meaning that it is a spam type of malware that may have changed your mail settings and only appears to be from the time machine.
Open your mail program preferences and set to delete from server after being read, if that is possible with your mail program.
Sometimes it is not best to forward all the seemingly harmless and funny emails that come your way.
After all, that is what the kids writing viruses are counting on.
Perhaps a free antivirus program such as Sophos may help you out.

works ok on mine - (5, 7.1.1). Try again. with previews set to none, mine shows the sender and the subject line only. (you cannot get rid of the subject) with the other settings, you get the sender, subject line and however many lines you selected.

Snap to points are turned off but they still keep snapping. WANT THEM OFF!! How do I do this?

Snap to points are turned off but they still keep snapping to. WANT THEM OFF!! How do I do this? I've gone into preferences and view, turned off the snap to and it still happens. So when I scale. the points snap to and mess up my line quality.
Please, anyone know how to fix this?

Jason,
In cases like this, the first guess is Align to Pixel Grid.
You may select everything and then untick Align to Pixel Grid in the Transform palette, and also untick Align New Objects to Pixel Grid in the flyout options.
You may avoid document types with that as default (RGB for web and the like) or change the default for such documents.

TS3899 Just set up a new phone and my emails are endless ... Already up to November and they still keep coming

I just got a new iPhone 5s and my emails won't stop coming... I'm already into November and they won't stop... How far is it gonna go

Sounds like a POP account. If so, it will keep going until all email that remains at the incoming mail server is downloaded.
If an IMAP or Exchange account, all server stored mailboxes are kept synchronized with the server.

Lightroom 3 (Vers 3.6) - "An error occurred when attempting to change modules" - is the message I get when clicking on Develop or any other option. I have deleted and re-installed the .dmg file, but it still keeps happening. Can anyone help?

After new update we can not keep the "related links" off the screen. We uncheck it but it still keeps coming back.

Every time we start Firefox, the "related links" are on the screen. We uncheck the box and it goes away. But the next time we use it, the related links are back. I cannot see why we would have to reset this every time we use the program. It is not a serious thing but surely is aggravating.

You can also do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer. 
Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
All these programs have free versions.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

How do I turn off the "Error Console"? It is popping up every second or less. I clicked on "Messages" and that slowed things down a little but it still keeps coming up.

This all started when I mistakenly clicked "Restore Default..." instead of "Done" when I was customizing the toolbars. How do I get the error console to stop coming up??
Thanks!!

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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.

I recently purchased an IMac from ebay and the user claims they reset the entire thing before shipping. But when I got it, it has a password protected user on it. They say they didn't set a password up but they clearly did. What can I do to actually reset

I can't get this thing to actually reset it back to factory settings so that I can have my own personal login information on here?

The iMac may have had Mountain Lion installed, but if that was not its originally installed operating system you will not be able to reinstall it without the Apple ID and password used to purchase it. OS X upgrades purchased from the Mac App Store cannot be sold or transferred to any other Apple ID.
I presume the eBay seller did not also sell his or her Apple ID along with the iMac?
Start your iMac as Ralph Landry1 wrote, but add an option key to the ⌘ (command) and R keys when you start the iMac. In other words, with three fingers hold the ⌘, option, and R keys while you start the iMac with a fourth finger.
You will then see a grey "spinning globe" icon as the iMac downloads OS X from Apple's servers, after which you can release your three fingers. An Internet connection (wireless or Ethernet) will be required. After that, erase the internal disc by selecting Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities screen. Then, you will be able to install OS X and set up the iMac as your own.
If at any point during the above you are still asked for an Apple ID that you do not own, you will be unable to proceed without the iMac's original grey System Install DVD. If the seller did not include that, contact him and demand he send it forthwith.

How can I block an e-mail address from sending me spam on my iPhone 5s? My ISP is unable to help. I can block on my laptop via Outlook, but they still come through on my iPhone 5s. Thank you very much.

You can "Move to Junk" and it should start doing it automatically after a few times:

So I keep trying to sync music to my iPhone from iTunes, and whenever I select the album the sync goes by really fast and nothing goes onto my phone. Then when I click "On this iPhone" it shows the songs, but they're grey, and I can't click on them. Help?

Ok, sorry. And yes, I just restored my iPhone as new and tried to put all the songs on there before I even restored with my previous backup, but it still does the same thing... even when I just checked the option to sync only "selected music or videos". How's that possible?
P.S. After I tried syncing with checked songs only, nothing showed up under Music on my phone and this message popped up in iTunes: "The iPhone "..." could not be synced because the sync session failed to finish." If you could, please tell me what that means, thanks.

Is there a way to hide apps from the app store? I don't want my kids to see those "free" apps that nag you to spend real money and download their other apps! I can hide them from "purchased apps", but they still show up when browsing for new apps!

Not other than parental oversight. On the computer you can implement Parental Controls on a separate user account that they would use. You can then block certain websites. But you cannot do that on the iPad.
You could change your iTunes account such that they cannot access it in order to buy or download apps.

I deleted a contact, but they still show up in my text options to send. I would like to delete the contact from my texts too.

No don't restore your iphone. I've done that several times & it has never worked. -I still have deleted contacts in my iphone texts. *However if you do restore it you will not lose all your data, pics, text messages etc if you backup in iCloud. It restores back to original phone. Very nice :). Anyhowwww....
I JUST figured it out!! :))). Remove the contact from recents.
Start a text. You should see the deleted contact. All the way to the right of the name is a symbol. The symbol is a circle with "i" in the middle. Click that symbol then in red lettering click "remove from recents".

Hi asims01,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The information below may be able to answer your questions about how to delete songs from your iPhone:
Deleting songs downloaded to your device
Tap the Music app.
Tap More > Songs at the bottom.
Scroll or search for the song you would like to delete from your device.
Swipe right to left on the song, and then tap Delete.
Note: You must be in Artists, Songs, or Albums view to delete songs from your device. Deleting from a playlist won't remove a song from your iOS device.
Also, this information can be found on page 64 of the iPhone User Guide for iOS 7
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Remove a song from iPhone. Tap Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete. The song is deleted from iPhone, but not from your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, or from iCloud.
If you have iOS 7, this will delete the song from local storage, but the song will still appear with a cloud symbol in the Music app, as you've noticed. To hide the iTunes in the Cloud purchases, navigate to Settings > iTunes & App Store, and disable "Show All: Music”
There may be a few orphaned songs on your iPhone that were partially downloaded or corrupted in some way. If that is the case, you can erase all of the music from your phone. Follow the instructions below and select the Music app under Usage:
iPhone, iPad, and iPod: Understanding capacity
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1867
I hope this information helps ....
