Ipad 4 opens app store when yahoo finance. How to stop this?

When I am browsing Yahoo Finance, the app store opens up all by itself. Why? How to make it stop?

Thank you for your fast and informative and friendly reply. Your solution is confirmed by disabling javascript in Safari, which solves the problem.
My guess is that there are other people who are more irritated than myself who have already filed complaints with the website.
I did google this, and first thing I tried was to thoroughly de-grime  the display. That solved nothing, except making the glass look (temporarily) nicer.
Again, thank you!

  • I have an update required for Evernote in my Imac app store, but cannot find how to get this update. It says to sign in with my emailm address, but I cannot find a way to do this.  Please help!!

    I recently downloaded Mlountain Lion on my Imac. It shows that I have an update for Evernote that should be downloaded, but I cannot find out how to complete this update. It asks for me to sign in with my email address, but does not show how to do this.  Please help!

    I have done exactly what you said. When I check "update", a screen  drops down that asks that I enter my email address to continue........but i cannot find any way to do this.
    In the past, all I would do is check "update", and the update would take place. Since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, this has changed, and i do not know how to do this simple thing.......the app store shows an update is due to be updated, but i cannot find out how to do it.

  • Keep getting "unable to open page" in safari any ideas how to stop this?

    I keep getting "unable to open page" in Safari it's most annoying! Can anyone help please.

    i haven't done anything in console. i don't really
    understand that part of computing.
    Console is not something you do anything in, it records what is going , where it logs errors, crashes et.. and where troubleshooting can start from.
    I mentioned Looking to see if you had errors logged.
    i can access any other site just fine.
    The problem, again is Not with Safari or other Browsers, if other sites are fine.
    i could understand that it may be the site if i
    wasn't able to connect to it from other sources. the
    computer are surely online or i would not be posting.
    1) I would not be able to know which computer you are posting from.
    2) Again I can connect to the site and browse, does not mean there is not something wrong with it.My console produce errors as I have mentioned.
    also i just got off the phone with Apple Care tech
    support. it seems that because i can access other
    sites this is not an issue they will support. so,
    That is is because the issue us NOT with Safari , rather your ISP, or your Network Settings.
    that means that my problem as well as all similar
    problems on this board will not get the attention
    Apple Discussion is a User to User Forum, folks that reply to you
    are not Apple employees, we all give the help we can & plenty of it.
    they deserve. i love apple and this really was quite
    a slap in the face. i'm still sorta in shock.
    Good Luck.

    Why is Safari opening the app store when I do not hit the link?(On iPad)

    Well this was my first time using the support communities app on the web so when I tried to get the answer there were literally 1000's of post and I was not sure which one pertained to me and my iPhone issue. Sorry if I offended in some manner, didn't mean to.

  • My iPod touch 4th gen. Keeps giving me the error message "cannot connect to the app store when I sign in. I can open the app store and browse it but I can't download anything. I have full signal strength with my wi-fi and safari is working perfect.

    My iPod touch 4th gen. Keeps giving me the error message "cannot connect to the app store when I sign in. I can open the app store and browse it but I can't download anything. I have full signal strength with my wi-fi and safari is working perfect. I turned it off and restarted it 3 times now. I have an iPad 2 and the app store works flawlessly with it. What is going on?

    Same here on my lpad2. Can access the web just fine from browsers but cannot install new apps or updates in appl store.  Seeing a few others reporting same issue tonight so likely an apple server issue and staff will notice it in network monitors and fix it...sometime this weekend.

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out and sign back in
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

    - Restore from backup. See:

  • HT4623 When I open App Store to do 5 updates on other apps, there is an app frozen on the page..just today did latest IOS update too.

    When I open App Store to do 5 updates on other apps, there is an app there that is frozen and I can not get rid of it doing my normal practice....touching blank area of screen and app goes away....not today tho....any suggestions to fix ?  Oh yea, I upgraded to latest IOS today on my IPad !! Thank you all for any help you can give.

    Close the App Store completely and reset your iPad.
    To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the App Store app then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    I bought a brand new mac and follow through setting up process with my apple id but when I open App Store I don't see lion into the purchases list. why?

    Updates come through Software Update not the App Store. If you have to reinstall Lion that is done via Internet Recovery.
    OS X Lion- About Lion Recovery
    OS X Lion- Run Software Update to use Lion Internet Recovery
    Lion maintenance and recovery operate via the Recovery HD. It's possible to create a separate recovery disk on a flash drive using OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery Disk Assistant.
    To boot into the Recovery HD:
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.

  • Can not open app store in iPad 3

    why I can not open app store in iPad 3

    IF you get app update notifications, are you able to use the App Store from the Updates Tab? Try closing the App Store and reset your iPad. You will not lose any data.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    i cant download new application on my Iphone everytime i open app store then searching for the application i want to download when i Tap the FREE sign it become half square and never downloaded.

    Sometimes this happens because the app won't run on the iOS version of the device you are trying to install it to.  Go to the app store and make sure it will run on iOS 3.1.3 (many only run on iOS 4 or higher).

  • I just bought aperture and downloaded it from app store. when I try to open the app I get a warning message that says: There was an error opening the database for the library "~/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary". The only option the is to quit. What is

    I just bought aperture and downloaded it from app store. when I try to open the app I get a warning message that says: There was an error opening the database for the library “~/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary”. The only option the is to quit. What is wrong?

    Hi,
    not sure what the problem might be, but you can try the following:
    While pressing ALT+CMD on the keyboard, click on the Aperture icon in the dock: Aperture then opens in a special "recovery mode", and you're prompted to choose what kind of repair you need: Repair Permissions / Repair Database / Rebuild Database
    Considering the situation, I'd recommend you to try "the "Repair Permissions" option first.
    If that isn't enough (and it may well be the case), then go straight for the "Rebuild Database" option; it's a non-destructive opration anyway, but since you've just installed Aperture you shouldn't have anything valuable in the default library...
    NOTE: if you do have some pictures in the library, instead, do a backup first! Time Machine is your friend
    Another option would be to launch Aperture while keeping only the ALT (option) key pressed: Aperture will ask you what library you want to open, or you can choose to create a new one from scratch.
    Good luck!
    Corrado
