  • I was updating my apps from the App Store when the process quit unexpectedly. Now I can't open the update file nor will my safari launch. How do I get back on to safari and prevent the updates that did download from being installed?

    I can't launch safari after downloading so updates. HELP!

    Ashka, I have tried to "transfer purchases from device" but that is what I am saying that I do not see the app in the "mobile applications" directory after I do that process. I was wondering if anyone else knew of a way to get to the ipa file that is stored on the iPad such as a program that could browse the directories of the iPad of even an app that could do it so I can get and save the actual app in ipa format.

  • How do I get back in English while I'm in Taiwan?

    While I'm traveling to abroad some of website became into an alien language and I could not even understand. For example Myspace.com or Msn.com change into Chinese. How do I get back automatically for all website into English? How to make Firefox not always change the language depending where we are? Thanks...

    hello riyadh75, make sure that your language settings in ''firefox > tools > options > content'' are properly set.
    [[Settings for fonts, languages, pop-ups, images and JavaScript]]
    however websites may also [http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/network-location/ detect your location] based on the public ip address your isp is providing to you & serve the content in the language derived from that. there's nothing firefox can do about this, it will just display the sites as they are submitted by the server. you could use a proxy or vpn-service from an english speaking country to get around that though...

  • I have accidentally change my "Apple start-page" to one that does not have "search" window.  How do I get back to my original Safari start up page?

    When I am in safari and go to a site, I now do not have a place to "search".  I accidently lost the original page that appears when going to safari.  How do I get back to my original "start-page" that I started with?

    I think you may mean the search box on the toolbar.  In Safari click on the View menu and select Show Toolbar.
    Alternatively, if you mean the 'Home Page' then open Safari -> Preferences -> General and next to 'Homepage' put in the address of the page you want - I'm guessing "http://www.google.com/".

    *Ask Toolbar Plugin Stub for 32-bit Windows
    Unfortunately, it is becoming more and more common for these kinds of "extras" (toolbars, security scanners, etc.) to be added to your browser/system/desktop when adding or updating other software, some from very well-know software vendors. You must carefully read information before downloading any "free" software and be very alert during the install process for any opportunity to opt-out of "extras" being installed.
    '''<u>If you have the Ask Toolbar</u>'''<br />
    * First try to disable or uninstall the Ask Toolbar in Firefox via "Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions". See: [[Uninstalling add-ons]]<br />
    *In some cases, you may need to uninstall the Ask Toolbar using Windows Control Panel .

  • I can't seem to get rid of OR use Adobe Reader after I let it into Safari 7.  How do I get to the point where Reader is not my preferred anything, but can still be used if Preview won't open something?

    I can't seem to get rid of OR use Adobe Reader after I let it into Safari 7.  How do I get to the point where Reader is not my preferred anything, but can still be used if Preview won't open something?

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

    Yes it is the same and it is greed out so it can't be changed there.
    Go to Settings\Mail, Contacts, Calendars\Add Account  (select iCloud)
    You can create a new account here  ("Get a Free Apple ID" at the bottom) or switch it to another existing account you may have (separate from your Husbands).
    Once you tie your phone into the separate account you can go back and delete your Husbands on your phone.

  • If someone has wiped my ipad and changed passwords on icloud how do i get my data back

    if someone has wiped my ipad and changed passwords on icloud how do i get my data back? please could someone help me out thanks

    How did they wipe it?  By using Find My iPad and performing a wipe?  If so, that means they have your icloud ID and password, not a good thing.
    You could try connecting it to iTunes and performing a restore from iCloud.  But if they changed password, then you are out of the loop.  How did they get your password in order to change it?

    Drag the Safari icon straight up and off the Dock so it goes, "poof" ...
    Now click and hold the Safari app in the Applications folder and drag that to the Dock.
    See if you can open a webpage in Safari.
