I want to stop it going to OpenDNS when I type a word in the url area. I want it to go to google.

I want to stop it going to OpenDNS when I type a word in the url area. I want it to go to Google.
I have changed the keyword.URL to http://www.google.com.my/search?q=
But this only works for terms with a space in it. For example:
Typing: "word1 word2" will go to Google
Typing: "word" Goes to OpenDNS
Furthermore... If I type in "eBay" it will take me to eBay.com (as I would expect) but if I type in another site like "tip20" it goes to OpenDNS.
How do I fix this once and for all.

Use a keyword search via the location bar. 
You can add a keyword to a search engine if you click the search engine icon on the search bar and open Manage Search Engines. Select a search engine and click the "Edit Keyword" button. You can use a one letter keyword like g for Google. 
Then you can type g word or g word1 word2 in the location bar to do a search.

What's going on? When I type a title on my new Pages document, iwork is substituting a hyphen for the colon I want! Have never seen this one before. How do I correct this imposition? I have the 10.6.8 OS and Pages'09.

Colons are used by the operating system so can't be used in file names.

It sounds like if you open Preferences in Word there will be a place where you can specify where to store autorecover files. Right now it sounds like it's pointing to somewhere that doesn't exist.

My Ipad has stopped receiving emails today. It has IOS7 on it. The settings are correct but says "connection to the server failed" help!

My Ipad has stopped receiving emails today. It has IOS7 on it. The settings are correct but says "connection to the server failed" help!
It is the same accout that has been working find for years and just after I updated the software this has happened. My Mac is still receiving and sending via Outlook with the same account and settings. My Iphone 5C has also stopped and I tried deleting the account and adding again (via exchange as it's an exchange accout) the same way I always do and it won't even recognise it to add the settings.
So annoying. Can anyone help?

How can I stop Firefox 34 from crashing when I click a button on the NOrton 360 toolbar??

I have the latest Norton 360 and fully updated. Also have FF 34.05. After anywhere between an hour and 3 hours, clicking any of the Norton Toolbars buttons that open options and provide multiple log in options FF crashes and when I reopen it it brings up my old tabs and at the end it brings up the FF welcome screen. In the options, it changes my opening page to the Norton Welcome page and the option to open previous tabs which was there with open default site which now it the welcome screen. Need help as have tried several fixes from the net and none so far work. Have allowed FF to reinstall the pref file, have removed hardware acceleration as well as put flash into a non protected mode and none help.
Don't know if it is a FF or Norton issue but, it is a real issue. Please help.

Thanks for your quick turn around. I'd be surprised if corrupt files as I only got the machine last Thursday but, it was a refurb so perhaps issues from the previous owner.
Do have some questions as follows:
It is a Windows 8.1 64 machine so will the fix recommended work??
looking at the page, appears option 2 is my best bet but, won't start until I get the go for Win 8.2. Assuming this is a good fix and since I would be doing it with the system and not a program, no malware??
As far as drivers, do have a app from HP that updates drivers and I updated everything after I got it going so should have the latest drivers and I did try alone unclicking the machine acceleration and no change there but, with the scan, might help. I have run all of the Windows updates which were quite a few with a new computer and do have Windows set to perform automatic updates so don't think I need to worry about graphic drivers??
Your thoughts on my questions before running the scan at the elevated admin level. By the way, I am the admin so do I simply run as admin or is there a higher thing I need to do to run at High Administrator???
Also, if after I run the scan and repair, if OK on Win 8.1 should I send your results to Norton for them to look at since almost all of the problems are with Norton and perhaps they have a fix with those issues and having running the driver fix should help them?? Also will the scan and repair indicate what was fixed and what wasn't.
Sorry so many questions but, don't want to mess up my new machine.
Thanks so much,
Dave

How do i stop firefox from automatically opening a new tab when i type an address into the address bar?

when i type a new address into the address bar and press enter, firefox automatically opens the site in a new tab. i want it to just open in the same tab.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

When I open a new tab, the address area populates with an unwanted, unused address, it doesn't go there, I don't want populated automatically, how to fix?

When ever I open a new tab in Firefox, this address populates the address bar: chrome://quick_start/content/index.html. Now, I don't have anything against it, but I can't seem to get rid of it. I have been to my settings and add ons and that doesn't work. Tried to see if I could find it somewhere in my internet settings on my computer control panel. I just had somebody delete some serious virus and adware issues with my computer, and I'm sure they put this in there. How do I get it to stop? If I call the place who fixed it, they'll probably charge me for fixing it when it should be an easy fix.
The page does NOT LOAD, it just populates the address bar, and if I hit enter, then it loads...help please.
Thank you so much.

jscher2000,
SUCCESS!!! Thank you so much, it is so helpful to have someone who KNOWS what they are doing to give me advice. I have to admit, I had never even realized you could do that in the address bar to get to certain areas of your browser settings. Thank you so much and I am keeping a copy of your text so that I can check it out and roam around in there...I am learning HTTP, C++ and CSS right now, so I am really excited about learning this new trick. I don't know what else I can do with it, but it's definitely a keeper! Thanks again. Namaste.

After errors with disk partition, I removed Windows from my iMac. Now when I start my computer it goes into a black screen and not straight into the Mac area like it used to, unless I hold Alt straight away to give me the option. Any help?

Hi,
Sorry, I'm new to the community, so apologies if I'm repeating myself.
OK, so I tried to install Windows Vista onto my iMac with the disk partition. Everything was going fine and it wasn't until last minute, when it was installed that an error came up saying that this can only be done with Windows 7. After this error, I couldn't access any errors of my iMac and when I shut down and restarted my computer, it automatically logged into Windows.
So after a panic, I rang Apple Care and the lady helped me log into my apple area, delete Windows from my iMac, and all was restored.
However, now when I shut down my computer and boot it back up, I think my iMac is trying to log into Windows areas that no longer exist. It loads up a black screen and doesn't move from there. To log into my Apple area, I have to do the whole process of holding Alt immediately after I switch the power on and access the Mac drive and log in that way.
It's beginning to become a real pain and I'm paranoid this process is going to damage my computer. Any advice on how to restore logging-in back to it's former glory when I first purchased it?
Thanks

Solved it. Thank you very much for that!

How do you stop a recovery mode loop when it won't sync with the orignal itunes library?

My dad gave me his Ipod touch 4th generation and said if I could get it to work I can use it. I have tried to restore it with his itunes, it goes through the steps but when it is over it is still in recovery mode...I don't know what to do....

Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

Then try restoring on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

HT201320 how can i stop automatic configuration of email accounts on my ipad...the ports are not correct and i cannot access my email

i cannot get my "frontier" email account set up on my ipad so that i cannot either or receive email. Frontier says that the "automatic" verifying tool puts the wrong ports in and that is why i cannot get or send emails from the ipad. We know we have the correct name and password in but when in comes to verifying, an error message comes up and says "the wrong user name or password has been entered".
How do i disable the automatic set up of email so i can be assured the correct ports are enabled?

-Select "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" option on the left hand side,
-On the right, under "Accounts" on top, tap "Add Account...",
-Select one of the email service providers or "Other",
-Under "Mail", tap "Add Mail Account",

I want to be able to type an address into the url section. Google is on the main firefox page and I cant get rid of it. How can I restore Firefox mozilla only please?

I need to enter the www.address. on this computer I can only enter the address in the google or yahoo section, not where the address should be. On the firefox home page the area where you search Google is the only way I can enter my address. There is no place where I can type an address.

http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode
Open the Firefox SafeMode and use '''Reset toolbars and controls.''' - only.

When I call someone the screen goes black and when I won't to end the call but I can't use the screen? Help

Someone pleasee help me :)

You can't turn the sensor off or on.
First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again. If thsi does not help, try to reset all settings in Settings/General/Reset -> reset all settings

I want to stop it going to OpenDNS when I type a word in the url area. I want it to go to google.
