I want to "Tell websites I do not want to be tracked," but it is greyed out. Why, and how can I enable it?

Following Firefox instructions to "Tell websites I do not want to be tracked", I went to Tools, Options, Advanced, General Tab. The option to "Tell websites I do not want to be tracked" is unchecked and greyed out, therefore I cannot check it. Otherwise, the window looks like the example in your instructions, that is, the same boxes have check marks in them as in your illustration, except for the above-mentioned being unaccessible. I didn't see any further instructions on what to do if greyed out.

Hi Lawrence. I'll go through the process. I click on SMTP under outgoing mail server. My primary server, smpt.aol.com is on. The next screen says server, which is on, then underneath that is the outgoing mail server. Everything under that heading is greyed out, which includes the host name, my user name, password (which says optional), user ssl (which is on), authentication, then server port 587. I need to change my password where it says optional, but it is all greyed out and won't allow me to do so. Thanks very much for your help!

  • I'm in India and use Indian iTune store. But there are certain books which are not avaiable in Indian store but are there in US store. How can i get those books?

    Hi Jai Shree Hari,
    Yeah, I don't see why you shouldn't be able to sign your friend's iTunes sign-on into iTunes, and then use that to download the books. You may need to also authorize your computer in iTunes with that ID in order to be able to re-download them to your device if you ever need to (not sure if this is absolutely required since most things live in the cloud now, but better to be safe than sorry.... ).
    Best of luck!

  • When trying to download Itunes this pops up " key not valid for use in specified state" what does this mean and how can I fix it?

    When trying to download Itunes this pops up " key not valid for use in specified state" what does this mean and how can I fix it? I am using a pc laptop if that makes any difference.

    Try reading through this thread: key not valid for use in specified state. Possible solution involves moving the RSA folder. Rather than deleting it as aniwack suggested I'd try this:
    For "Key not valid for use in specified state" errors try moving the folder RSA from C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA to say C:\RSA (just in case there should be a need to restore it) then try installing again. This folder appears to act as a cache and should be rebuilt automatically as required.

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

    Hi melindafromjerry city,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    You mention that a ringtone does not work after updating iOS on your iPhone 5. If a single ringtone is not playing, or your iPhone is not ringing at all, this article has the best steps to start troubleshooting the issue:
    iPhone: No ring or sound from built-in speaker

    AdaS_VZW,
    I'm not sure if the area has been surveyed; it's a large group of apartment buildings about a within a couple miles of Dulles International Airport in Northern Virginia, so I would imagine that it probably has, but I'm not sure. How would I find out?
    I understand that the Network Extender does not support LTE connections (I know there are two models, the 1x-only and 3g, both made by Samsung - I have the 3g model, SCS-2U01). I know that it can support a 3G data connection, but that should be irrelevant - I'm always connected to my wifi network in my apartment.
    What's particularly vexing, however, is that both a Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Nexus in my apartment (the other lines on my account) do not seem to have this issue. While I haven't done so with the S4, the Nexus exhibits this problem when my SIM is in it - and again, this is a fresh SIM from just a few weeks ago.
    I'm currently trying to disable Mobile Data when in the apartment to see if that will make it more stable. I'll post in a day or two with results from that.

  • Repeatedly get this message and have this happen - mozilla firefox not responding - and then everything is frozen. why and how can this be prevented?n. g

    repeatedly get the above message - mozilla firefox not responding - happens on no particular website - often happens on my aol home page. i would like a simple, easy to understand explanation or solution.
    also, often get this message - Problem Loading Page. problem appears to be with firefox as i can access the sites through my mobile device.
    and one other problem - a site i could accesss but was not allowed to register - after thinking i must be out of my mind going round and round in circles - i called the site's 800 number and was told there is always a problem registering using mozilla firefox. so what did i do, i registered on my mobile.
    i don't think any of this should be happening.
    please help and/or advise. thanks.

    That's nice, the device is listed on your Apple profile.
    That has absolutely nothing to do with syncing to a computer.
    Try a different USB port.
    Restart the device.

  • App Store, Pages 5.0, Evernote, and other Apps will not fully function after installing Mavericks. What is the issue and how can this be solved?

    Hello all, I could use some serious help on some major issues I have been having after installing Mavericks on my system (specs stated below). Never has a mac felt ever so rebelious and broken before in my lifelong period of using these systems. Anyway, after installing system 10.9, I had opened the mac App Store upon seeing that applications such as my iWork suite all had free updates. However, when I would attempt to navigate to the updates window, it would not respond to my various attempts. I then tried to get there by the system's menu bar and to my dismay, nothing would work when I clicked on it, not even the apple logo menu. I later quit the application using Command-Q and opened up the App Store by the apple menu option 'Software Update...' instead. Though it looked promising since the updates window did open, all update buttons or even '...more' info buttons were unresponsive.  These same problems persisted even after restarting my computer. I had also attempted to see if repairing definitions would help by booting from the recovery start-disk and using disk utility but the repairs it carried out apparently had nothing to do with my issue. Finally, I was able to update to the new iWorks suite (which interestingly did not replace the iWorks '09 suite) by following the notification that asked about allowing automatic updates which I did.
    Once trying to use Pages 5.0, I soon noticed that all I could do was merely type in a new document and change various options via key commands. Neither the inspector or top bar menus would respond to any place I click. Similarly, Evernote only starts up on the last used note and merely allows me to scroll through it. The top bar menus, the note select pane, and even clicking inside the note to input text are all not functioning and uninfluenced by any mouse clicks.
    I have noticed other apps that will not respond to any sort of input, but I still have not explored all applications to know what the issues of each may be. However there are some applications that work such as Safari, Google Chrome, dolphin, iWork '09 including Pages '09, and others.
    I do hope that I can avoid rolling back my system, but in the meantime, it has been quite the obticle course to use my computer for all of my school purposes.
    Any help is very much appreciated,
    Thank you!

    I also forgot to note that this problem also persists with the new iBooks application. I cannot get past the 'Get Started' screen or access the iBooks Store. Again, all top bar menus are unresponsive.
