My homepage has been reset to a sight i dont want?
recently my home page was reset from google. to search au.com which i dont want. i suspect malware or some kind of invasion of my computer. i have followed the procedures from my tools and set a new master security password, however this has not remedied the problem. any suggestions?
Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

Internet Download error message: the connection with the server has been reset
With an WRT54GS v6 firmware v 1.50.9 on Windows XP SP2 with Internet Explorer 7, Intel wireless internal adaptor w/ 802.11b, I was getting the error message "The connection with the server has been reset" when downloading most anything from the Internet. My IP address would then be reset and download would be interrupted. To resolve, I turned off the WZC (Wireless Zero Configuration) Services, and this seems to correct the problem.
Control Panel > Admin Tools > Services > Wireless Zero Configuration > Disable
Hopes this helps.Hi!
Im using Windows 7.... I tried looking for the Wireless Config - but it isn't in the Services options!
So, what can I do now?
Thanx -

After updating my Iphone 4s to os 7.1.1 from 7.1 over the air, my phone went into recovery mode. Yet when I try to restore it with Itunes on my windows 7 laptop it says the network connection has been reset. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network is active, or try again later. My phone has the itunes logo and charger symbol on it, as well as an arrow pointing at the Itunes logo. After holding the sleep button down or even doing the hard reset the same screen comes up on my phone regardless of whether it is plugged in or not to my computer. I have turned my computer off and on again. It is plugged in and charging as it's battery life is very short. I also reset my modem and the same error message pops up. The only option on my computer when my phone is plugged in is to restore it. My firewall also allows Itunes through it. I have literally tried everything I know being someone who knows very little about technology. I also do not want to hear about how the update worked for other people. My phone has been in recovery mode for 5 hours at least now so it will just make me more frustrated if a bunch of people post about how the update worked for them.
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...

Make sure you have the Current Version of iTunes Installed on your computer
iTunes free download from www.itunes.com/download
Then See Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
Some users have reported as many as 8 or 9 attempts were necessary before success.
After you have Recovered your Device...
Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...
Restore from Backup > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
If the issue persists...
Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...

'the preferences file is corrupt and has been reset to the default settings' - cs4 Mac
greetings!
every time i start illustrator i encounter a new error.
"the preferences file is corrupt and has been reset to the default settings."
"the corrupt file will be backed up as Adobe illustrator Prefs.err"
this problem manifested after i added some more .ai and .ase files to my swatches directory. i do not believe anything else changed.
not sure how to diagnose the problem. is there a debug mode or something? perhaps an offending file.
an option would be to try remove each added swatch file or folder individually, but this would be a very very time consuming process for me.
i use cs4 on a Macbook pro running Snow Leopard - 10.6.2 and would appreciate your advice.
thank you
-ss,
Every time you close down Illy, the current preferences (which may have been changed while you worked on files) are saved, and every time you start up Illy, those preferences will be used.
Usually, preference corruption probably occurs randomly, caused by the OS, but if something in your files change the preferences to something that is not viable you will get an error like that.
You may press Cmd+Option+Shift during startup, which will replace the current preferences with the defaults, and probably you will get rid of the error message. It is probably not a cure, though.
If the error is persistent, the cure would be to get rid of the offending things in the files you work with. -
ITunes network connection has been reset: Anyone know the meaning?
Within the past 2 days I have started receiving a "Network connection has been reset" error message when trying to purchase new apps or updating already purchased apps. Does anyone have better insight than I into its meaning and purpose? Thanks!
+I have dial up so i don’t know if this might be causing the problem, is there anyway to fix this?+
Sounds like the dial=up connection is dropping. My advice is to get it from a friend's house that has high speed internet. Put the iTunes Setup.exe file on a USB memory stick, take it to your PC and drag it to the desktop. Then run the install. -
My Apple account password has been reset a couple times due to Apple telling me my passwords are incorrect. I know they aren't because I have already had to change the password three times, and I keep record of my password. Yet, it continuously tells me my password is incorrect. I have just changed it, again, and now I cannot log into the itunes store to download an app because it's telling me my new password is incorrect.
I just bought the new iphone 5s today, so does this have anything to do with it? Please help, this is extremely frustrating.Need to Resume download to complete the ongoing Process.
Last Resort, put the iPhone in DFU mode (Google How to do that). Connect in iTunes. Follow on-screen prompts to Restore. All Data would be lost, if not backed up earlier.
To save the photographs you may have to use third party software. Google is your friend. -
I get an alert banner saying my connection has been reset. This only happens when I try to connect to hotmail. It works fine when I connect to other sites, including this one. This is a new problem and I have not experienced it before, even though I have had problems with broadband connections. There are unusaul movements on my hotmail like when I delete messages and clear the delete folder, the deleted messages reappear when I reopen my hotmail. I have also had messages missing and reappearing even though they are from several year ago. The new problem with the alert message started about 10 minutes ago. I was able to access my hotmail via Safari but I get the alert message everytime I try with firefox.
Hi ...
Try here > Mac App Store: "An unknown error occurred (100)" when purchasing
If that doesn't help, drag the App Store icon straight up off your Dock so it goes, "poof".
Now drag the App Store icon from your Applications folder to the Dock. Try updating your apps. -
Email address hacked via iphone. iphone locked home screen displaying my email password! and has been reset. now unable to restore iphone, saying i do not have permission
If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support. -
How do i know if my lost ipod touch has been reset?
I have lost it a couple of days ago and am using FIND MY IPHONE and it says that my iPod is offline. Does this mean it has been reset or it is still out there?
Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod. If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number). If any passwords are associated with your bank or any savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. This requires action before the device is lost/stolen. Something as small as an iPod should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries. -
itunes will not recognise my encryption password even though it has been reset. cant restore to last backup?
I'm not aware of a way to reset the password for an encrypted backup. If you have forgotten the password for an encrypted backup, your only alternative is to put the phone in recovery mode and restore it as a new device. Your data will be lost.

Re-implement a note that has been reset?
Hello,
Can you re-implement a note that has been reset? I am trying to but am getting error message "not all required corrections were implemented".
I deimplemented the note instead of trying to upload the new version of the note. Now I am stuck without any code correction, and cannot implement the note.
Thanks for any help!Hi Fabienne
Are you trying with the SNOTE transaction. if yes then try to apply the note manually

I cannot do anything online because I constantly get the "connection has been reset" message. This has never happened before. I followed instructions on Firefox help page for this message and it only made it worse!
Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last ever version of Firefox for Win98 / SE / ME.
You can get it from here, but you are better off using K-Meleon (derived from Firefox) or Opera instead an old version of Firefox:
[ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/win32/en-US/]
You can try KernelEx to get Firefox 3+ to work, but it would be very slow with an old PC of less than 750Mhz. 3.5 and later supposedly doesn't work.
