hello, you have malicious addons present. please perform all these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to the firefox menu ≡ > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

Not much more to add. I did a restore to an earlier time and still no joy. I am at a loss. I am not a totally savvy computer person at all, just know enough to get into trbl. That is why I stay away from most things that require me to make judgement calls. However this was a black/white decision and now I cannot get an important aspect of my Outlook calendar to work----Help please!
Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the [http://mozilla.com/plugincheck Mozilla Plugin Check site].
Once you're there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions.
If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow ''Update'' button or a red ''Update now'' button, please update these immediately.
To do so, please click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure. -
When I first downloaded Firefox- everything was normal -- then my computer had to be taken back to the way it was from the factory. I had Trojans. Now I have reloaded Firefox, and I get no pictures on Facebook. I get all of the graphics when I go to a game site, and it is fast--Thank you!!, but when I am on my Homepage or News feed, all I get are the names, but no pictures of my friends or what they have posted --pictures. In my profile, I have no picture of myself that I have posted, or in my albums.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox 4 times now, and still the same thing. PLEASE HELP ME-- I DO NOT LIKE WINDOWS EXPLORER-- IT IS SLOWER THAN MOLASSES IN A BLIZZARD-- IT TAKES MINUTES TO LOAD SOME OF MY GAMES-- AND SOME WON'T LOAD AT ALL.With Facebook on display, click on the site identity button (for details on what that is see the [[site identity button]] article) and then on More Information. This will open up the page info dialog.
First select the Permissions panel, make sure that "Load Images" is set to allow (selecting Use Default should also work)
Next select the Media panel, then click on the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll through the list. If any item has the option "Block images from (domain name)" selected, de-select the option.
This should hopefully resolve your issue, but also see [[Images or animations do not show]].
Some add-ons can also block images, for example if you have AdBlock Plus installed, make sure that you have not accidentally created a filter to block the images. -

You posted in the wrong forum. An iMac DV 400mhz is a G3 CRT not an G5 iMac. See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58669 iMac: How To Differentiate Between Models (CRT)
You will need to repost in the Internet, Networking and your iMac (CRT) Forums. -
As stated, I was required to change a password, yet the old password still appeared in the field, so I went into settings and deleted the old one, but now I cannot get Firefox to save the new password. And yes, I have wasted a lot of time attempting the "solutions" on the help sites, but nothing has worked. Thank you for any help.
Make sure that you do not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing mode (Never remember history).
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Private+Browsing
The website may be using autocomplete=off to prevent Firefox from saving form data like name and password.
You can remove autocomplete=off with a bookmarklet to make Firefox store form data like names and passwords.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/User_name_and_password_not_remembered
Note that Firefox won't auto-fill saved form data automatically when autocomplete=off is used, so you need to double-click the empty name field to get a drop-down list. -
my ipod touch just turned off while i was using it and now it wont come back on no matter what i do. how can i fix this?
Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

The question explains itself. I had AVG anti-virus, and now that I've updated Firefox I can't even use that!! I'm pretty pissed and frustrated.
"Not only did it download a new version of itunes, but it also downloaded MS Word updates, and other software that required updating."
MS Word is not an Apple product so it could not've downloaded with all the Apple software updates.
"I clicked File > Check for Updates"
What program were you running to do that?
In any case boot from your OS installer disk and run Repair Disk from Disk Uility. -
Where are my "Favorites"? I just downloaded Firefox and now my Favorites List is missing!

I'm using Firefox 3.5.14, and had no similar problems with an earlier edition.
I believe I've already selected the "open in new tab" option. Am I missing something?Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") -
Just downloaded upgrade and now can't get firefox to open at all. Please advise
The computer keeps telling me to reaboot and I keep doing that. I can't even take the program off my computer so I can redownload it. Keeps telling to to reboot. Please tell me what went wrong and if I will ever be able to use Firefox again.
If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version and delete the Firefox program folder to remove any leftover files.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
Remove the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

I had a msg to update my foxfire, which I did, now when I go to open firefox a box pops up that says log into Xmarks. First there is no place to log into Xmarks and 2nd before I do I would like to know what it is. I can not get into Mozilla Firefox without doing this sp am now forced to use Internet explorer.
Hi,
[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/xmarks-sync/?src=search Xmarks] is a bookmarks/history/tabs backup/sync utility. It is not a feature of Firefox. It is an extension which had to be manually added or perhaps could have come with another extension.
If you have registered with the service you have to enter the username and password to log in to the service. Otherwise try pressing the '''Esc''' key on the keyboard and after Firefox opens, go to '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''', click Extensions on the left and look for Xmarks and '''Disable''' to disable it or '''Remove''' to uninstall it. If that doesn't work, start Firefox in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode.] In the first screen choose '''Disable all add-ons''' and '''Make Changes and Restart''' and repeat the above procedure, but this time, re-enable all the needed extensions except Xmarks. You may also have to re-enable the plugins after clicking '''Plugins''' on the left).

I just upgraded to the new version of Pages that was released today.
Before that I could start up either the old Pages 09 version or the new version whichever one I visit.
Seeing as how I have a lot document that use feature not included in the newer version I have been running the older version most of the time.
Now if I attempt to do that, I get this asinine message about a new version which takes me to the new version and gives me now way to open the older version.
Is any one aware of a work around for this problem?
I am going the express my displeasure on the Apple Feedback page now also.
AllanThis is the App Store Help instructions:
Manage app subscriptions
You can change renewal settings for subscriptions and re-subscribe to apps in App Store.
Choose Store > View My Account, sign in, then click Manage (next to Subscriptions).
If an app is set to renew automatically, do any of the following:
Change your renewal duration:
Select a setting in the Renewal Options list.
Turn off automatic renewal:
Select Off as the Auto-Renewal setting.Your subscription continues until it ends, and is not renewed automatically.
If an app is not set to renew automatically, click the Subscribe button next to a duration. If your current subscription has expired, this renews the subscription to the app and turns on automatic renewal.
Apple does say it won't respond to feedback.

I've just updated firefox and now it will not open at all. Please help!
I use gmail and a couple of days ago I started having trouble accessing it and in fact any google related site. Apparently my version of firefox was not supported so I updated to the current version this morning but then found that firefox would not open at all. There are no error messages. I have tried restoring my settings to those of yesterday but although my system says I have returned to the old version 3.5.15 it still will not open. I can now only access the internet by using an ancient version of Microsoft Internet Explorer - which is also not supported by gmail. Although I'm limping on I could really do with some help!!
Perhaps give one of the following documents a try:
iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
