My iPhone 4 updated to iOS 5.0.1 but was interrupted in first attempt, when now connecting to iTunes (windows PC) the phone just constantly wants to restore and once it has done just goes back to that page rather than the summary tabs! Help?!!

Can anyone help? please?

It's not a virus, even if one did exist for iOS, by definition it cannot be a virus. A virus is a back door program that activates malicous code without the users consent or (most times) knowledge at its time of destruction. Also it cannot be a trojan or worm based attack because apps downloaded directly through the app store or synced from your computer all go thru apple before they get to you and would be caught well before you activated it on your device.
No, after several weeks with the phone now it has come unpleasently clear that the problem is memory; not a lack of it, but simply mis-execution there of. Apples backgrounding technique is to run apps in a native or /paused/ state while not in use, however, it seems (actually can be proven with a simple diagnostic app) that the error is in the OS not fully pruging /native/ apps from memory. Thus when it (quickly) fills up, your device acts in a way similar to a kernal panic (see above post) and SpringBoard crashes.
As I really didn't see muchn of a problem with this in 4.x I'm hoping its just a bug in 5.x and be fixed in 5.1? otherwise, as I said last time things seem to run fairly smooth if you keep the background clear and hard reboot (to completely free up memory) about once every 3-7 days depending on how much you use the iDevice.

HT4314 I have tried to log into clash of clans on my iPad and it just keeps going to a new game rather than the one saved on my iPhone. I have been using the game centre and same user name and password ?

I have tried to log into clash of clans on my iPad and it just keeps going to a new game rather than the one saved on my iPhone. I have been using the game centre and same user name and password ?

I have the same problem.. EXACTLY. . When phoning Apple Support they had trouble understanding my problem and couldnt find any type of solution. No one seems to take responsibility for GameCenter issues. The assistant escalated the problem but no one could find an answer. .
The only idea was to set up a new apple id, hence a new GameCenter account. . But that would loose all the itunes data. Anyone got ideas ?

Last thing you can try is restore as new:

You have already lost it at this stage
but you have a backup of course

Since installing ICloud, and updating IO, programs and websites close whenever I scroll, going back to home page. I have tried turning it off, but that does not work. Can anyone help me out? Also, the keyboard is very slow.

I am frustrated with the new update and the ICloud. Any program i open, or website I am in, closes suddenly, an returns to the Home page. Also the keyboard is very slow. None of this existed until I did the two updates. Can anyone help?

I'm wondering where the onsite warranty can be in effect. Like, can it be used in ANY city in the US? Can it be used only in metrololitan areas? What is a metro area in Lenovo's eyes?
Does anyone know where I can get better and accurate info on the onsite warranty? Like a coverage map would be very helpful. Because why should I spend the money on it, if I can't access it?
Looking forward to more info...thanks.
There is no coverage map as such.
I live in what is considered a rural area and had techs driving 60-70 miles one way to get to me, never an issue.
Obviously, YMMV.
In my not-so-modest experience, both onsite and accidental damage upgrades are worth every penny if one intends to keep their ThinkPads for an extended period of time.
Good luck.

Safari back button goes back to Top Sites rather than search results

When I launch Safari, it begins at the Top Sites page. I use the unified search/URL bar to search something on Google. I click on one of the results and decide that's not the answer I wanted so I hit the back arrow in Safari to go back to the search results, but Safari doesn't do that. It skips the search I did and goes all the way back to Top Sites. The Google search never happened as far as Safari is concerned. What's going on?
Details:
Safari 6.0.4
Mac OS X 10.8.3

Do any search, either in the URL bar or by going to www.google.com (doesn't matter what you search for as the results are irrelevant). Once you're at the search results page, you'll see a cog wheel icon on the upper right. Looks like this:
This is the search settings button. Click it and navigate down to "Search Settings". Once at this page, look halfway down to find the "Google Instant Predictions" section. Change the option to "Never show Instant Results." Scroll all the way down and save your changes.
I'm betting with you... I think its the Focus on the User extension. Good luck.

When I go to a website, I get a menu of the website (a list down the left-hand side of the page) rather than the home page itself. Using internet explorer, I get to the home page. Why not on Firefox? It just started happening recently

I updated firefox a couple weeks ago, but updating has never caused this problem.
I installed a program to help the computer run more efficiently, called "Fix-it Essentials," and that may have caused the problem, though it didn't for the first couple weeks I used it.
So I still can't get to the homepage of many websites and navigate as I want to.

Simple really. The first 3 articles have steps in them, but not in this order.
#First, with Firefox closed, remove the toolbars from Windows ''Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs''. After the window populates, look for the Toolbars; if there, click on them and click on the button to the right of it that says "Remove". Then restart your system ''Start > Shut down > Restart''
#*Article --> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_toolbars#Uninstalling_via_Windows_Control_Panel
#Second, start Firefox and check in Firefox Add-ons: '''''Add-ons > Extensions'''''. Look for Yahoo Toolbar or Babylon and try to remove by clicking "Remove" or "Disable".
#*Article --> http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons and http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Cannot%20uninstall%20an%20add-on
#Restart Firefox by exiting (''Firefox button > Exit'' or ''File > Exit''), wait a few seconds (10-30), then click the Firefox desktop icon to start Firefox and test to see if the problem is resolved.
The last 3 articles are for other steps to take if the above does not work to solve your problem.

Restore your media from your backup that you keep of your media and other important files.

Using Firefox 5, how do I get the button that lets me skip back to past pages rather than having to repeatedly press the 'back' button?

I want to skip through past pages.

Click and hold down on the back button, the list you want will pop up.

A search takes me to a page where I click on a link which takes me to an advertising page, rather than the link I clicked. How can I change this back to a true search?

Example: Yahoo shows "Seal Team 6" in "Trending Now." I click it. I get a normal page with options to read specific stories. I click one. It takes me to a page advertising seal fur coats or team sport clothing. But my opportunity to read the article is gone. For a while I could paste the link into the URL, but even that now goes to another advertisement. Any help would be appreciated.

You can middle click a link to open that link in a new tab.
*Open Link in New Tab: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/open-link-in-new-tab/
*Tab Utilities Lite: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-utilities-lite/

Is it possible to simply click on a hyperlink and go to that page rather than open a new tab or new window?

Currently my settings open a new tab in the same window. In a normal surfing session I may end up with numerous tabs. What if I just want to go from the page I'm on to the next...

You can set the browser.link.open_newwindow pref to 1 on the about:config page to open links in the current tab.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction

When starting up, the application insists on opening the Firefox Welcome page rather than the homepage specified in the preferences panel. (The latter opens nearly simultaneously, behind the Welcome Page.)

Working on an iMac, running OS 10.6.8. This problem has started fairly recently. (I also experienced a problem with "places," starting around the same time, which I was able to resolve using the Troubleshooting page.)

See these articles for some suggestions:
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+has+just+updated+tab+shows+each+time+you+start+Firefox
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved

Why when surfing on iPads safari and reading an article and I go back it brings me back a few days rather than the current place I was at?

Yes on a apple laptop or desktop.
As this is an iPad forum, directions for solving a problem on a desktop or laptop probably aren't what the OP is looking for.
The ipad 2 has a mobile version of safari, really? That will be the first to go when i get my Ipad2 friday, i cant stand mobile versions of browsers.
The version of Safari on the iPad is the iOS version as, of course, the MacOS version doesn't run on the iPad. If you don't like, there are many other browsers available in the App Store. I'm fond of iCab Mobile.
You may also be confusing mobile browsers with the mobile version of websites. Whether or not you see the mobile version of a website is controlled by the website.
Best of luck.
