Is firefox creating "Choose your favorite way to communicate" appearing in my Yhaoo mail display?

Sometimes when I try to display the list of e-mails in my Yahoo mail I get the message noted with three word/symbol responses;
Email, SMS or Instant Message instead of the email list. I can not get away from the message without leaving mail subsystem. Even if I select one of the responses offered, nothing happens. If I try to "save" the message, it shows it as a Firefox file? Yahoo doesn't seem to know anything about it but I did find a report of the same problem on Maxthon Forum with a snap of the screen image. I downloaded to jpeg and can forward it if you want to see a sample of the problem.

I had this same problem and finally figured out that somehow one of my children had tampered with my Yahoo mail while I was away from the computer. It's been a few months, but I fixed it in just a few seconds by clicking and dragging the preview screen (the one that's telling you "choose your favorite way to communicate") down and/or out of the way. Once I used the bar/line to drag that screen out of the way my inbox and emails appeared again!
To repeat, the problem had nothing to do with enabling or disabling the preview pane. It was simply that my inbox was being "covered up" by that other screen.

  • What's your favorite way of doing usernames and passwords?

    i'm embarking on the deveopment of a site that (hopefully)
    will have a boatload of registered users. i understand that one way
    of doing this is a combination of php and mysql - two things i know
    little about. i searched hotscripts and there seems to be a number
    of prepackaged programs that claim to simplify the process. what
    would your suggestions be?
    thanks.

    I can only give you sketch descriptions of how to do it in
    hopes that
    "you'll get the idea".
    1. To do an email confirmation, you enter the form data into
    the database
    along with a bit that says that this data has not been
    validated, and then
    send an email to the entered email address with a link to a
    page that
    toggles that "valid" bit in the record . When the valid bit
    is toggled, you
    know that the email went to the desired recipient.
    2. manage the email address? I am not sure what you have in
    mind here.
    3. reclaim lost passwords? I recommend you not save
    passwords. Instead,
    have a link that send an email to the user, as in #1, but
    with a link that
    allows them to reset their password.

  • What is your favorite way of running 32 bit apps in Arch64?

    I'm curious as to what methods Arch64 users use to run their 32 bit applications and what is your opinion on them.
    I myself relies mostly on lib32 packages to run a few applications that I need (mostly flash & wine), which works quite nicely expect it makes my system feel a bit 'messier'. chroot looks like a nice option but I've not tried it out yet (it looks complicated to setup to be honest).

    It's good to know that someone has VueScan working on their x64 box. It is the one thing that keeps me dual booting with Vista.
    However, just like Zodmaner, chroot looks complicated.
    Setting up a chroot isn't that difficult, there are just has a lot of steps to follow!  VueScan works for me in a 32bit chroot with just one issue - for some reason it loses the ability to initialise my scanner and I have to run XSane first to do the initialisation before starting VueScan.  I had the same problem running VueScan in a 32bit chroot on 64bit Ubuntu, so it's not an Arch-specific problem, and Ed Hamrick wasn't able to help when I emailed him.

  • Is there a way to make the view window on mail display messages with a larger size ?

    I would like to set it up as a default, and not have to zoom in or make larger (cmd +) each individual message.
    I have tried the font setup, but it does not work. It works for my own messages only.
    I guess what I'm asking is if the font-setup of the sender of the mail can be overidden.

    ~Bee: I think you meant to say Mail's preferences.
    I tried to do the same myself with the Fonts in Mail. Problem is it only enlarges part of messages for the most part. I could not get a good balance that way with some text enlarging while some stays small.
    Using the cmd+ keys to zoom brings everything in the message to a larger size which is much better. Yes it's a pain, but I haven't found a better alternative yet.
    Also, ctrl-mouse zoom works also, but not as crisp text. Wish the mouse tap zoom would work in mail, but it doesn't.
    It would be a nice addition if apple would just include a zoom setting for all screens including Safari.
    But as Bee suggested, increasing the font size does help depending on what is sent to you.

  • What's your favorite of styling hyperlinks?

    Hi,
    what's your favorite way of styling hyperlinks?
    Right now I've colored mine C=100 M=100 Y=0 Y=0 and made them underlined. I feel the underlining is a bit too harsh on my overall design. Then again if I don't underline them, how are people suppose to know they're links?
    Spelling out URLs is just not an option. Unless I use TinyURL? They say their links will last forever but who knows for sure?

    That is a question about cultural expectations -- I can't answer that confidently.  The check mark that so often is used in US software to signal 'OK' (as in the spelling checking function where I edit this message) signals 'Error' to me -- and when it is shown in green (as Borland Software did at one point, and as Adobe does here) it signals both 'Error' and 'OK', and produces a kind of 'pulling-both-ways' effect that isn't too pleasant -- to me. I'm not sure I can come up with something that works for you.
    The dialog bubbles may work -- though to me the carry overtones of a footnote or an endnote. But they pretty clearly seem to signal 'more info elsewhere', and that's definitely a step in the right direction.
    I would be looking for something like a bent arrow -- perhaps Unicode U+21AA (↪), or perhaps something similar with a double arrow (Unicode U+21D2, ⇒), except I'd like it to have a similar curve at the left, half suggesting a 'click here to go elsewhere'. (Wingdings 3, character code 0xCA, is close.) But I could probably go for 0x58 in WIngdings 3, rotate it 90 degrees to the right, and perhaps tweak the small box into two smaller boxes of unequal size, suggesting movement.
    Or perhaps just something that suggest a 'click here' -- some of the simpler designs in Altemus Bursts, or Altemus Pinwheel or Altemus Stars might work.
    I would like something that tempted the reader into testing, and so encourage learning-by-doing. That would be helped by a similar symbol going the other way to indicate the 'back' of a web browser.  Arrows help here -- they show a direction. Other designs -- bursts -- won't be a easily understood: what would be a reverse burst?.And what symbol would be used at the target end of the dialog bubbles to suggest 'go back'? (Added: perhaps a quad or square signalling 'end'?)
    Arrows seem safer. Even guillemets might work, as long they won't be misread as quotes of some kind. Guillemets in a circle? There are some such glyphs like that in Wingdings. The standard 'fast forward' and 'fast backward'  glyphs (in Webdings, say) may also work.
    Actually ... this is the kind of problem I'd might want to suggest for a small project for a class for typeface designers.

  • Everytime I open Firefox - it takes a really long time and reopens the Firefox Update tab that says "Choose your Persona" and "More ways to Personalize" tab along with my regular home page tab. Sometimes it tries to load the add ons too and takes a reall

    Every time I open Firefox it tries to install the same updates (that I don't want) and the Firefox 3.6 "Choose Your Persona" etc. tab opens along with my home page tab. It takes a really long time to get onto Firefox because of these problems.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Don't remember

    Well, this worked on my desktop! But my problem is on my laptop. :-) I'm running XP, but there was no "Username" under Documents and Settings under the C drive. I did a search for those file names and it wasn't there. I found Mozilla Firefox folder under: C\Documents and Settings\ All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Mozilla Firefox. There are 2 - 1 is Mozilla Firefox (shortcut) and the other is Mozilla Firefox (Safe Mode). I did a Mozilla Firefox search and this is all that showed up.
    When I click on the shortcut link (the 1st one), it opens up 2 screens of Firefox. One is the "this is embarrassing" screen. The other is "Choose your Persona" screen. I closed it and reopened and it took me to my home page.

  • I want ro remove all of the default Firefox bookmarks. There are way too many and none of which are usefull to me. I would like to make my old IE Favorites folder the default. How can I do this?

    I need to remove the default Firefox bookmarks.
    There are way too many and none of which are usefull to me.
    Also, I am vision impaired and reading through such a long list is very eye-fatigueing to me.
    I would like to make my old IE Favorites folder the default. How can I do this?

    Did you import an iPhoto Library from the old Hard Drive? Do you still have that old Library?
    The way to clear out a Library is to Export the photos - Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
    For the annoying start-up message:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
    Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • Is there a way to "favorite" your favorite clips so they are easy to find and organized?

    I just switched from Final Cut X and in Final Cut X there was a way to mark your favorite sections of clips and it would save them under your "Favorites" tab which made it super easy to find all the clips you want to use in your show. Is there a way to do this in premiere? What are some other strategies to achieving this workflow? I am cutting a documentary and theres way too much footage to not be able to mark your favorite clips.....

    I'd say the closest thing in Premiere would be to save subclips. There's a command, Make Subclip, in the Clip menu as well as the Source Monitor's context menu. But if you're doing this a lot, I suspect you'll want to use keyboard shortcuts. The default for Make Subclip is CTRL/CMD+U, but when I was creating many, many subclips in the course of testing the "soft" subclip feature (new to CC7.0), I changed it to "P" because it's adjacent to JKL and I/O. Here's my workflow:
    JKL to scrub to in point (or jump via NumPad)
    "I" to set In Point
    JKL to out point
    O
    P
    enter subclip name
    Press Enter
    Most people seem to prefer working with the "Restrict Trims to Subclip Boundaries" option disabled. That creates "soft" subclips. With the old "hard" subclips, if you decided that you wanted to trim out beyond the original subclip boundaries, you have to first change the Subclip Start +/or End via the Edit Subclip dialog
    Note that "subclip" is a bit of a misnomer insofar as the resulting item in your Project panel is actually a completely independent master clip, the only difference being that it has Subclip Start and Subclip End times set. Though the subclip naturally points to the same file on disk as the project item from which it was spawned, there's no direct, dynamic relationship between the two. Indeed, deleting the "original" clip will have no impact on subclips.
    Note also that the current version (7.2.2) has some bugs with subclips saved from merged clips. If you're working with merged clips, we recommend using the Duplicate command rather making subclips.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

    I just changed jobs. My last job used Firefox, my new job uses Explorer. I previously did a manual back up of my bookmarks from Firefox. Is there a way now to get them into Explorer?

  • How do I create my own favorite template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to templates, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get

    First, how do I create my own favorite theme template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to already existing themes, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get. I just want to use a picture as my DVD cover, and then insert a slideshow. Also, when I try to burn my 8.5gb double sided slideshow, all that burns is the music. It is a large slideshow, a memorial on the life of my now deceased brother. This means a lot to me and to my family, and I am having so much trouble trying to burn it. I have gone into Project View and selected appropriately. The bar shows I have room to burn this DVD, but it does not burn.  I have burned so many DVDs in the past, but this one just will not burn. I am so confused at this point. I will say this is the first 8.5gb I have attempted to create and burn. My specs list a 7.7gb or 4.7gb as operable....but there are no 7.7gb dvds. I had to purchase 8.5gb. Help? What am I doing wrong? I have spent so much time on this, and just cannot figure it out.

    Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor.  The pro version of iMovie.
    Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow.  It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them.  You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
    When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
    Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
    Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version).  Personal preferences showing here.
