No matter how many times you ask... I DON'T WANT McAFEE!
You know why I signed up to this forum?
Specifically to tell you to stop auto-checking the McAfee box for me when updating Flash. Thanks for wasting my time.
With the frequency at which Flash Player is updated, this annoying McAfee option is single-handedly starting to make me hate Adobe. Even with your shiny new template that presents it as an "Optional" install. What would make me even more upset is if one time I forgot to uncheck the box, which thankfully hasn't happened yet.
Can you please remember my selection so I don't need to uncheck it every time?
Use the FULL offline installers with nothing bundled.
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
They're more stable than the "downloader/installer" anyway.
Bookmark those. They don't change even when the version is updated.

I cannot do upgrades or buy apps as it keeps asking me to verfy my password by email but I cannot get Apple to send the email. I have tried repeatedly. Help please.
I seen this many times, and in just about all cases, it's the user resetting a different AppleID than what's being used for the iTunes account.

I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, my settings have been changed, my homepage, and EVERYTHING. No matter how many times I go in and change them again, the SAME pages open up when I start FireFox and I am constantly being asked if I want Yahoo as my start page and default search engine. I click the box 'do not ask me again' and it comes up EVERY TIME. I change things like I don't want history remembered, and when I reload FireFox again, it's back to the way it was BEFORE. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I don't know why this is happening, or how to fix it. What do I do??
I do not want to download another virus program.. I do not believe it is a virus. I am running the full version of Norton 360 and it is doing a daily scan. I have Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
This is very irritating !! If I wanted Yahoo I would ask for it ! -
No matter how many times I provide my Keychain Password, the pop-up window keeps coming back. Seriously annoying...I'd rather not use Keychain. Any way to just turn this crap off?

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

You can use one of these to start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u>:

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

For some reason, I cannot change my desktop background no matter how many times I delete the "active" folder. It's as if it's locked. Any ideas how I can fix it?
Yes it sounds like you have a corrupted preference file.
The setting you make in individual programs get saved to a Preference file in your Users/Library/Preferences folder.
All you have to do is drag out the old file to the desktop, reboot and load the program and the preference file gets rebuilt without your preferences which you reset.
For your case I beleive the preference file is
com.apple.desktop.plist -
If I open a page in a tab it will take me to a completely different site, and no matter how many times I try to close and open a new one, it keeps going to different sites. It also happens when I type the website into the address bar, it still takes me to a random site. Is it something with my computer, or is it Firefox, and if it is a problem with Firefox, how do I fix it?
Sounds like Malware on your PC.

my iCal calendar that I created with the color green keeps changing to purple. no matter how many times I change it to green, it turns it back to purple. Of course this only happens with iCloud and not "from my Mac". Any ideas on how to correct this? This seems like a trivial error, but it's super annoying.
I called Apple and they said that they know about this problem. It's a problem with iCloud which their Engineers know about. (there was a new iCloud release, hence...) No ETA for a fix yet. I asked that this be escalated so Engineering doesn't put it at the bottom of their fix list. I talked to a Senior Advisor and mentioned to them to have QA check their regression tests as this has happened before to me (the problem just didn't take this long to resolve). I like to use green too for important stuff, so I've resorted to creating a new calendar using the normal calendar green for events going forward. They could have picked another color besides green to have this problem with and I wouldn't have been so upset. ;-)

My itunes will not open no matter how many times i try! It says its due to a problem. what do i do?
My itunes will not open no matter how many times i try! It says its due to a problem. what do i do?
When you gte requests to locate iTunes.msi like this, the Microsoft Installer Cleanup utility usually fixes it.
Here is a method for removal, clean up and reinstall of iTunes.
== uninstall with cleanup ==
Download a fresh copy of iTunes and the stand alone version of Quicktime (the one without iTunes)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Save the files on your PC.
Download and install Microsoft Installer cleanup utility, there are instructions on the page as well as the download. Note that what you download is the installer not the program – you have to run it to install the program. The installer doesn't give any message to confirm the installation.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301/
(To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install)
Now use the following method to remove iTunes and its components:
XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Vista
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
*If you hit a problem with one of the uninstalls don't worry*, carry on with the deleting of files and folders as directed in the method.
When you get to deleting Quicktime files in the system32 folder as advised in the method, you can delete any file or folder with Quicktime in the name.
Restart your PC.
Run the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility. (Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up)
Remove any references you find to the programs you removed - strictly speaking you only need to worry about those programs where the uninstall failed.
If you don’t see an entry for one of the programs that did not uninstall, look out for blank entries or numeric entries that look like version numbers e.g. 7.x for Quicktime or 1.x for Bonjour.
restart your PC
Install the stand alone Quicktime and check that it works.
If it does, install iTunes.

Does anyone know what this error code means?My itunes will not even open, no matter how many times i downlaod and restore it??? "The procedure entry point xmlITexTextReaderName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dlll." Please let me know if your know anything! It is greatly apprecitated!
Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (Although the procedure is for Vista and 7 and you've got XP, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

Hi. Whenever I want to upload a picture or a file, no matter how many times I press the "Upload" or "Browse" button, nothing happens. I can keep spam clicking on it and it wouldn't do anything. This is not specific to a site, but happens everywhere. Dragging and dropping files works on Facebook and Imgur, but not all websites support this. I'm using Firefox 31.0 on Windows 8.1. Yes, I have tried restarting Firefox and computer, this has been happening for a while now. Thanks.Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test.

This probably still applies to Windows 8:
Try to delete the MRU (Most Recently Used) ComDlg32 registry keys with the registry editor (regedit.exe).
Navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32
Delete the subkeys (LastVisitedPidlMRU and OpenSavePidlMRU)
Be cautious with editing the registry as there is no Undo possible: all changes are applied immediately.
You can export registry keys before making changes.

What's wrong with my Mozillla? Help!!!!
I've tried re-installing and installing it back, but failed =(You should still have the older version of Firefox (the beta installs alongside the older version). Check under add/remove programs. If you do, just locate the .exe in program files under Mozilla, and create a shortcut.

My healthvault never shows any information synced from fitbit.com, I have the scales and a tracker and no matter how many times I add and delete it through the fitbit share healthvault page but it never ever syncs over night. I have left is weeks and
still nothing in HV.
I am starting to wonder if HV supports fitbit? Any help would really be appreciated, this is driving me insane.

Since you have already linked and unlinked your account and still having issues please contact Fitbit Support (http://help.fitbit.com/?cu=1)

Addititionally when you contact FitBit can you please let them know that you have already contacted HealthVault.

If you've double checked your credit card info and it still won't take it, contact your card issuer. -
