I wish to unistall Firefox so I can make a clean install to get rid of all the Yahoo tabs, but Mozilla Firefox does not appear in the list of programs in Window

I have tried the suggestions posted in mozilla support for removing Yahoo from the new tab and the default search, but I have not been successful. So, I thought I would uninstall Firefox from my computer and make a clean install. However Mozilla Firefox does not appear as one of my Currently installed programs in Control Panel\ Add or Remove Programs, and C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\uninstall\helper.exe does not open or run. I fear I may have been the victim of some ?Yahoo malware. Any suggestions gratefully received.
I have Firefox 22.0 and my computer runs XP sp3.

Do you have the Default Tab extension?
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart or otherwise have problems with preferences, see:

Can't find the close tab icon...does not appear on the tab...using 4.0.1 for Mac

According to descriptions provided by Firefox, there should be an X to click on to close the tab...I can't find this. Have restarted Firefox to no avail.

Try to reset the file localstore.rdf

I had my iphone 3gs unlocked so i could use it in Oz, however although i can phone works ok, i cant get internet, but i the option of Cellular Data Network does not appear with the new sim? Can anyone help pls?

Hi Just wondered if anyone can help with the above question? I had O2 phone unlocked and bought a local sim card, but although the calls are fine i have no option for internet etc. I have done searches and got the info details from the sim provider to activate, but instructions say i go to : Settings; General; Network and then Celluar Data Network, but I dont get that option ? When i put back my O2 sim card, the option reappears?
Can anyone help me please? Off to Australia again soon and really could do with it working properly this time.
Thanks everyone
Ronnie

Hi Ronnie, was wondering what brand sim card you bought?
Was it from Telstra, Optus, Vodafone, Virgin or Mayasim?
I have a 4 S running iOS 5.01 is there an option in Settings - Network - Carrier? As this should be set to the supplier of the sim card. In my Settings - Network there is no option for Celluar Data Network.
What version of the iOS are you using?
Some prepaid sim cards may not have a lot of data, so I suggest searching the companies websites for the best deals before you come here. Telstra usually have good plans. If you take your phone to the shop you purchased the sim card from they will usually set it up for you.
Telstra runs on a different frequency to others and offers the best coverage in Australia.
Just for the record I am not an employee of any mobile company.

My interface -- buttons (back, forward, reload), firefox tab, groups, etc. -- does not look like the sample on your "firefox features" page. ("Groups" seems not to function at all.) I'm running the current firefox 4 download on Windows XP. Can you help?

Thank you for your swift reply. I don't know that this has helped me, as I've reached my level of tolerance for fooling with this annoying little problem - for today anyway. It has been going on since I "up" graded to Firefox 4. My wife is running 3.6.x on her laptop with none of this foolishness. As BLASPHEMOUS as it may sound, I've gone back to IE for the time being even though I don't like it 1000th as much as I do Firefox.
Not just to rant here, I would say that I found a way to put some buttons on the right side of the toolbar that immediately gave me permission to "back, forward, and reload", but upon closing the browser and going out for dinner with the wife, I find on return that not only are those buttons NOT still on the toolbar, but I can't find them anymore. I think they were in "add-ons" found under I believe Add-On Manager.
I did also manage to achieve back/forward functionality running Firefox in SAFE mode, but this meant no No-Script, among other things, and I've grown too fond of that particular little script to give it up.
I've rebooted, restored, and reinstalled, can't get this formerly completely reliable program to work like it always has. Before looking around on here, I was beginning to think it was my PC.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP, cor-el. I'm going to see if I can get on live chat on Monday.

I downloaded the ebates shopping toolbar and wish to remove it but it does not appear in my list of add ons or plug ins. I have just now downloaded the newest version of Firefox.

I am not able to remove the ebates tool bar because it does not appear when i go to tools then addons or extentions or plugins. Where is it?

My email is listed but it does not appear in the main window so I can read it

I get a list of my email but the message does not appear in the window. How can I get the whole email to appear when I tap on it?

After installing FF 6.02 on Windows 7, the icon does not appear on the desktop and the program does not appear in the All Programs menu

I just received a new laptop running windows 7 home premium and wanted to install Firefox on it. I tried to install the most recent version. When i installed 6.0.2, the icon did not appear on my desktop (it was a hidden file in my desktop folder) and the program group does not appear in the start menu's All Programs list. The program *does* run though, at least it did a few times. This happened whether i installed as administrator or not. Installing firefox 3.6.22, though, DID create the program group and desktop icon, and upgrading from there removed them again. installing other programs (e.g. vlc, trillian, etc.) did not cause this behavior. I also tried this both with and without McAfee's realtime protection running.

Some people have found that an app (usually iBooks for some reason) hasn't appeared on a homescreen until after the iPad has been reset and has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
Also depending on what the app is have you got an age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding it ?

Fire FTP does not appear in the Firefox 4 Tools Menu, where is it?

I have just upgraded Firefox from 3.6.16 to Firefox 4
(OS Win XP)
I had Fire FTP as an add on, but after upgrading it disappeared from the Tools Menu (along with all my accounts details)
I then re installed the Fire FTP Add On but it does not appear in the Tools Menu, where has it gone?
Firefox 4 appears to have reinstalled previously removed Extensions/Add ons
The Tools Menu doesnt have anything in it.
How can I roll back from Firefox 4

To clarify Afallach's reply, the FireFTP menu is now under '''Tools->Web Developer->FireFTP.'''
I don't know why the development team chose to move it there, but they've been making a lot of stupid design decisions recently.

When I open iTunes my iPod nano does not appear in the list of divides so that I can click on what I want to since.

When I connect my Ipod Nano to my Mac it does not appear in the list of devices, so I can't check what I want it to sinc, such as music videos. It will sinc thr music automaticlly. I can't tell it to sinc anything else.

the same exact thing happens to me except that when i plug it in it tells me not to disconnect it. i had a friend who told me to leave it plugged in no matter how long it took.. i waited for 5 hours or more for my ipod to do something and i got so mad i just disconnected it.it didn't do ANYTHING AT ALL. so, if someday you find out how to make yours work.. can you tell me please? i'm desperate!

My device does not appear in the iTunes window. Instead a separate window opens so I cannot sync

My device does not appear in the iTunes window. Instead a separate window opens so I cannot sync my device. I have tried with both my iPad, my iPod and my iPhone. In each case a separate window opens showing that it is fully connected to the computer, but it does not open in iTunes.
I have followed previous instructions to stop then start the device manager. I have even uninstalled then reinstalled iTunes, but no luck. Can someone help??

Hello Linda Lev,
It sounds like Windows recognizes that your devices are conneted, but iTunes does not. I recommend the troubleshooting from the article named:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Error on new windows 8.1 project: The type or namespace name 'Foundation' does not exist in the namespace

I upgraded to win 8.1 and VS 2013. I created a new Windows 8.1 C# grid project and tried to compile it and I'm seeing the following error: Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Foundation' does not exist in the namespace [my namespace](are
you missing an assembly reference?)
The errors are in navigationhelper.cs line 59
[Windows.Foundation.Metadata.WebHostHidden] // Foundation has the squigglies
public class NavigationHelper : DependencyObject
and app.xaml.cs line 68 ==> rootFrame.Language = Windows.Globalization.ApplicationLanguages.Languages[0]; which causes this error: Error 2 The type or namespace name 'Globalization' does not exist in the namespace [my namespace] (are you missing
an assembly reference?)
Windows phone and mvc projects are working fine and I've installed all the updates and even tried to fix vs 2013.
Any help Is greatly appreciated.

I did some more investigation and noticed that if I create an app with a "." in the name then this problem occurs. For example create a windows store project with the default name "App1": this will compile.
However if I name the project "App1.Forms" to correspeond with the default namespace I want, then this problem occurs. Still investigating but anyone should be able to repro it with that step.

How to get a question in the course placed anywhere in the course and does not appear in the quiz result or total number of questions. Pretest would work except it can't go anywhere in the course (at least for me it can't)

How to get a question in the course placed anywhere in the course and does not appear in the quiz result or total number of questions. Pretest would work except it can't go anywhere in the course (at least for me it can't)

Use a normal question, and do not add the score to the total score. That will give you a correct score at the end. But the total number of questions, that system variable will still take into account all questions. You'll need a user variable, and calculate its value by subtracting 1 from the system variable cpQuizInfoTotalQuestionsPerProject. Same for the progress indicator if you want to show it?
Customized Progress Indicator - Captivate blog
If you want to allow Review, you'll have to tweak as well. You didn't specify the version, and all those questions I now mentioned.
And my approach, since you talk about only one question: create a custom question, because you'll have total control then.

I am running IE 11 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit Service Pack 1. When I attempt to install Flash Player, it goes through all of the steps, tells me the player is installed, and welcomes me. I cannot open the player and it does not appear in the Start Menu, Task Manager, System Tray, or anywhere else. When I try to open a file, the site tells me Flash player is not installed. I have even downloaded it to a separate folder and ran the install with IE shut down completely. And Shockwave in ENABLED but in 32 bit .I have been trying to get this to work for about 3 weeks now. HELP!!!

Flash Player is a browser add-on, not an executable program.
If you need to open a local SWF file you will need the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you will need to make the file association manually.

Start by rebooting the computer. If that doesn't work, search for adobefnt*.lst and delete all instances where * becomes a 2-digit number.
