My Firefox 4.0 Tools/Options/General menu looks nothing like your instructions. How do I tell websites that I don't want them to track me if my menu doesn't look like your instructions?

My question is self-explanatory.

I too have this problem. To provide more information on my issue, my file/edit/view... toolbar looks identical to how it did in version 3.6. I tried general update from 3.6x-4, and I tried a clean uninstall and reinstall (fully deleting and not fully deleting profiles; tried both) to 4.0 and my toolbar still looks identical to 3.6. I know it updated because the about says 4.0 and I have the tabs above option and the "awesome bar" toolbar looks new. My awesome bar toolbar is missing the privacy browsing button as well though.

After install, Firefox sets itself as default to open all kinds of files. How do I prevent this. I don't want it as default for anything except browser.

For example, after install of most recent version 32.0.1 Firefox logo was attached to all my pdf files. I only want to firefox as a browser, not to open videos, pics or pdf's. I went to default program option in start menu but there are so many file types I don't know what should be opening. I simply deleted firefox and everything went back to normal.

Note that this would possibly only happen when Firefox is set as the default browser and only should happen if there isn't another application set to handle these file type.
Firefox inspects some registry keys to check that and if a program is registered via other registry keys then Firefox may think that there isn't a program to handle these content types.
You can use the registry editor to check some keys.
*Registry Editor:<br>HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\.pdf\<br>HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.pdf
Remove the FirefoxHTML value of the Default key and leave an empty value of that key.
That should allow you to set another application as the default to handle PDF files via the open with dialog.

Can not click on tell web sites I do not want to be tracked firefox 4

I use Firefox 4.0. I go to tools, option, advanced, then I try to put a check mark in Tell web sites I do not want to be tracked the box is grey and will not let me put in he check mark.
Can you please help me.

You're not in Private Browsing mode when you try to select that preference, are you?

Firefox 4: 1)Tools Options Advanced menu doesn't include DNT option; 2) Tools Options Privacy menu doesn't include disallow 3rd-party cookies

Installed Firefox 4 today; shut down; restarted; 1) DNT option isn't on the Tools Options General Advanced menu or on the Tools Options Advanced menu. 2) The option to disallow 3rd-party cookies isn't available in the Tools Options Privacy menu either.

You may have an extension that is hiding those entries.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Firefox loads a blank page instead of homepage despite correct tools/options/general settings (win 7)

I am running namoroka and firefox both in win 7. I have set the tools/options/general (or main) tab setting to specify my homepage and to load my homepage when the browsers start. Nevertheless they both open blank pages when I hit the plus button to open a new browser page

If you want the home page to open in a new tab then you can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the toolbar Home button.
You can look at one of these extensions:
* NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2221
* New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/777

Firefox 4 on Windows 7, Tools- Options- General- Startup- When FireFox Starts: Show my windows & Tabs from last time .. but on startup permanently shows only Firefox Default Home page

Settings (Firefox 4 on Windows 7), Tools->Options->General->Startup->When FireFox Starts: Show my windows & Tabs from last time ..

Make sure that you do not use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the "Browsing History" if Firefox is closed.

When opening firefox in tools options general tabs or application tab, firefox freezes.

It forces me to close firefox from windows task manager.
this does not happens in my Windows 7, but in Windows XP SP3 this problem occurs, now im using windows 7 to send this problem with firefox 3.6.12...

Have you tested firefox with safe mode?

I can't find the "start up" option in the tools - options - general tab.

I have lost the "restore previous session" action from Firefox at start up.
Looked in Tools - Options - General and there is no option to change behavior at start up.

Hi Sabine,
Delete the file 'com.apple.KeyboardViewerServer.plist' in
users/your_name/Library/Preferences folder.
Log out/Log in,
Then go to SystemPreferences>International>Input Menu
and see if it works.

I want to have all my tabs return after closing. In Tools/Options/General/ I have' Show my Windows and Tabs from last time' checked, but it does not work. When I open FF again none of my formerly open Tabs show... FF v.4.

When I open FF up again after I have closed it, I want all tabs to return. In Tools/Options/General/ I have' Show my Windows and Tabs from last time' checked-does not work. In addition, the feedback window fails to 'Submit...!'

I am unable to find instructions on how to add a bookmark. I don't want it on the toolbar but just in the list of bookmarks. I've tried every which way to search for this information but without success.
Thanks,

Is that what you're looking for?

If the incorrect PIN code is entered too many times, a PIN Unlock Key must be obtained from Verizon Wireless at 908-559-4899 if you are outside of the United States and 800-922-0204 or *611(send) from your mobile number inside the United States..
The SIM PIN option is only available when the handset is in GSM / UMTS mode. Refer to Network Mode Setting for further assistance.
Thank you, LatachaM_VZW
Are you talking about the PUK code (when the PIN for the SIM has been wrong too many times)? The OP is talking about network unlock, and is using a foreign SIM. Global Services certainly wouldn't have the unlock code for a SIM that isn't theirs.
I have heard that if you do enter the incorrect network unlock code too many times, the phone becomes permanently locked (i..e cannot be unlocked even with a valid unlock code) but not everyone agrees that this is true for all phones.
Jax's post above really says it all, you will need to search the web for a service that will unlock this Motorola phone. In doing so, you might find a number of threads that say the Global has to be activated in the US before an unlock code will work. Others were able to unlock without this.

Since you don’t allow emails any more – I suspect because of the numerous complaints with your service and the way you treat people that you don’t want documented, I am calling and I want this call recorded for future reference.
I have been a long time faithful customer of vzw and although the past year I have been late on payments many times and really couldn’t afford your exorbitant prices for services lots of other companies offer sometimes three times cheaper than what you charge, I have hung in there trying my best to meet my obligations.
This month has been no exception. You don’t know the background; the whole story of people’s lives. I know you could care less because all you care about is the profit-the money that comes in.
I was told when I agreed to pay my bill on the third per the recorded message that I had 14 days to pay…you cut me off anyway. The phones are not the tissue; your suspending my service means I cannot work. I may lose my job…how do you justify that? In any case? The least you could do would be to keep 4986 on and cut the phones off. But no. You refuse to compromise and meet the basic needs of your customer. What does that say about your company? I tried to call back on three separate occasions to tell you I couldn’t pay because of unexpected expenses but couldn’t get out of the automated system…sadly couldn’t get to a real person which also speaks volumes to me.
All this tells me this is a company I don’t wish to be affiliated with any more. As soon as I can, I will discontinue service with you…I know you could care less. I will honor the remaining portion of the contract but that’s it. You don’t deserve my business. I am a good, hardworking person who, at the sacrifice of myself and my needs, always pays her bills…albeit late at times. I realize others tell you stories and lies to justify themselves. That’s not me. If you knew what I had been through the last 7 yrs you would marvel that I am still on my feet…don’t judge too quickly. You could be wrong…and in my eyes you are by doing this to me.
God will see us through this extremely scary time of that I have no doubt. No thanks to your company and lack of understanding and mercy. I am doing the best I can. Sadly you are not.
See I have choices. MANY choices of providers for services you offer. I don’t have to be treated like this. I don’t have to succumb to your coldness and callousness. I intend to choose better (and cheaper). If your company doesn’t get the “people factor” back you will be sorry.

Problem here is you admit you cannot afford the service.
And you want to blame Verizon for losing a job because you have no cell phone.
If your job depends on that phone I would pay it on time every time if you need a job to pay your bill.
No other service is going to treat you any different. And if you cannot afford Verizon's monthly invoice how are you going to afford new devices, activation fees, possible security deposits on any other cellular carrier? You can't.
Also if you made an arraignment to pay and then decide you cannot do so, why should Verizon extend you service or credit, or why is it you want to use the service and data and not pay for it as agreed.
Get a prepay phone. Its evident the cost is too high for you to afford on post pay.
Good Luck

DD got new laptop(Windows 8). I would like for her to have her own iTunes account. However she has been syncing her iPod to my account for 2years and has an abundance of music/movies that we don't want to buy again. Any way to share them to her new PC?

My daughter got a new laptop for Christmas (windows 8). I would like to set up her own iTunes account on her laptop. Our dilema is she has been syncing her iPod to my account for 2 years now, therefore, she has an abundance of music (purchased through iTunes store) and movies (downloaded via digital download from DVD/BluRay purchases) that we don't want to have to purchase all over again. Is there any way to share some/all of my account with her so she can sync her iPod to her laptop in the future?
I have been reading about Home Sharing but I am not sure this is the approach I am after. Will home sharing work to allow her to alter and change the content on her PC without changing/altering it on mine? Will it allow her to sync her iPod with her PC?
I suppose I should also add that we are currently running 2 iPod touches, 2 iPads and an iPhone from my apple ID. I am not even sure if I would be able to add her PC as a device for home sharing if that is an option for us.
Any and all guidance is greatly appreciated.

Go to the site and look for an unsubscribe link. Or, contact the site and ask them to stop.

Resetting the settings will reset things like the wallpaper to the default. It wont remove the apps or music.
As the previous poster said, the apps and music will be tied to the previous owners Apple ID, you'll need the password to update the apps and remain authorized to play the music.
I would suggest taking your stuff off (the camera pictures) then erasing all content and settings so the iPad is like new. For privacy reasons alone I would erase the device. I realise you want to keep the music, but since you haven't paid for it (it was purchased under someone elses ID) then it isn't yours to keep, you'll need to write down the tracks and purchase them under your ID.
