Norton Antivirus screwed up settings-Any Help?

Hi all,
I finally figured out what is messing with my settings in my ibook G4. It has Norton Antivirus on it. I bought it used and the first owner had put it on there. The problem is whenever I try to view a picture or secondary part of a web page, it won't display. Example, if I go to a page and click on a picture that is supposed to show you a bigger image or details, it won't display. It doesn't really matter what type of format it is, Norton is stopping it. I tried to turn off the Norton thing, but it won't turn off. Does anybody have any idea how to neuter this Norton program from my ibook G4 (10.3.9) PowerPC 1.07gb chip. I am leary of upgrading the OS to Tiger until I tame this Norton thing. Then I will upgrade. I already have the disks.

Hello thomjw,
I have been in a similar situation, not fun. The reason I am part of this community, came to find some info regarding the funky behaviour of my system, & found out the culprit was Norton Antivirus fo Mac version 9.0.
You will need an uninstaller to do it right, go the the Norton Symantec site to look for one . It was updated, the one bundled with certain versions does not work. I am not sure if you will need the CD to do it, however Just pulling the application to the trash does not do it. Make sure it is for the version of Norton that you have. This would of been best posted in the forum:
Using Mac OS XIf you have more questions post there.

On the connector block CB-68LP, there are few screw terminals. I am trying to find the maker and the part number of this screw terminal. Any help is much appreciated.

I am designing a new product to use in our environment and I am trying to go from the I/O card to the PCB eliminating the connector block. For this purpose, I need to find out the screw terminal part number as well as the makers name. Please help.

The screw terminals are made by Phoenix:
The 14 screw terminal row is P/N 18-69-33-4
The 12 screw terminal row is P/N 18-69-31-8

Cant Save settings any help ?

I have a 46rv525u lcd Television and cannot save settings after changing them.I have a vision impaired son and must have the brightness turned up but soon as the set is turned off it resets to default. Same as the speakers that I want off as well.
Any advice?

Finaly I managed to save the sites to a local folder in order to follow your steps thanks!!
But, the publishing problem remains. I get an error when I do "test connection" and It says I cant connect. Tho, it managed to send the test file over to the location when i check it out at ftp.coca-cola.com (username and pasw). So I cant understand why iWeb cant connect to the server, when I can in the web browser? Im still using the same informasjon..

Norton antivirus 12 for lion any good?

I know in the past Nortion antivirus software was as ruinious to a mac performance as the virus you are trying to avoid.
Is the new anti virus internet security 5 & antivirus12 designed for Lion, actually work now, without a HUGH performance hit?

Mac OS X versions 10.6.7 and later have built-in detection of known Mac malware in downloaded files. The recognition database is automatically updated once a day; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders. In most cases, there’s no benefit from any other automated protection against malware.
The most effective defense against malware is your own intelligence. All known malware that affects an up-to-date Mac OS system takes the form of trojans that can only operate if the victim is duped into running them. If you're smarter than the malware attacker thinks you are, you won't be duped. That means, primarily, that you never install software from an untrustworthy source. How do you know a source is untrustworthy?
Any website that prompts you to install a “codec,” “plug-in,” or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown site, merely in order to use the site, is untrustworthy.
A web operator who tells you that you have a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with your computer, or that you have won a prize in a contest you never entered, is trying to commit a crime with you as the victim.
“Cracked” versions of commercial software downloaded from a bittorrent are likely to be infected.
Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must be downloaded directly from the developer’s website. No intermediary is acceptable.
Disable Java (not JavaScript) in your web browser(s). Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This setting is mandatory in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, because Java in those versions has bugs that make it unsafe to use on the Internet. Those bugs will probably never be fixed.
Follow these guidelines, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can reasonably be.
Never install any commercial "anti-virus" products for the Mac, as they all do more harm than good. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use ClamXav — nothing else.

I have HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but no audio from my new Apple TV. I have checked all connections and the video is xlnt. Have also toggled thru every possible Dolby/Audio combination in settings. Help! Any suggestions?

I have an HDMI connection to the receiver and on to the TV - but there is non audio from my Apple TV. Not for movies, music, YouTube etc.   I have checked all of the connections and the video is xlnt. Have also toggled thru all possible Dolby/Audio combinations in settings. Help! Any suggestions?

Hello again Parker -
The basic setup is Digital Cable Box, DVD Player, Denon Receiver/Amp and TV Monitor. To that I added the Apple TV. The Receiver only has two HDMI IN slots (one for cable and one for the DVD) and one out to the Monitor.
[I bought a switcher to toggle the DVD and the AppleTV back and forth but just disconnected the DVD to simplify when I ran in to trouble.]
So now I have:
     HDMI from the Cable Box to the Receiver
     HDMI from the Apple TV to the Receiver (in the old DVD slot which always worked well)
     HDMI from the Receiver to the Monitor
     RCA's from the Receiver to the Subwoofer and the other speakers
In addition I have some backup connections:
     S-Video, Optical Audio and L/R RCA's from the Cable Box to the Receiver
     S-Video from the Receiver to the Monitor
Wait - JUST FOUND IT!
By going thru the excercise to track all of the connections per your suggestion, I found an anomaly when I switched Receiver sockets for the HDMI links. The video moved but the audio didn't. Turns out the monitor was using the optical audio feed from the receiver. So I disconnected the optical audio and the monitor automatically switched to the HDMI audio feed!   Looked promising...
So I first connected an optical audio feed from the ATV to the receiver - Audio! Then I pulled it, but the audio didn't switch to the HDMI feed. It stopped. Would be OK if all I was going to use is the ATV, but I need the DVD player too and I can't use a switcher to toggle between them if I have to unplug the optical audio each time.
This is becoming a career! Any suggestions?

I group messaged from my ipad and this has screwed up the way my messages are reveived by my friends (it creates new threads in their phones with my email in place of my contact name) I've stopped messaging from my ipad but the problem remains. Any help?

I have an iPhone 4S and use the group texting feature ALL THE TIME. I recently updated my iPad to the latest software and made the colossal mistake of continuing my group messaging from my iPad while connected to wifi. Doing this has successfully screwed but every group text thread I am in, to the point where its very hard for those involved in the thread to keep up. When I initially messaged those I was already engaged in text threads with it created a new thread in their phones replacing my name in their phones with my email. At first this was not a big deal but ever since then the people I am messaging have become increasingly frustrated with how my messages come through. If I am messaged in a group text and respond to it, sometimes when I respond it will create an entirely different thread in my recipients phones. So at that point they have to switch threads in order to read what I wrote. The new thread that my phone creates will send the message under my email not my name (related to the contact they have me saved as in their phones). The worst part about it is that there seems to be no rhyme or reason to why or when my phone will send the message as normal or under my email like it did with my iPad. I haven’t messaged from my iPad since these problems immediately began a month ago but the issues still continue. I have tried everything to get this to stop, I’ve turned off my wifi, I’ve had my friends delete the threads that my messages create in their phones. I’ve had them delete my email in their contact lists and nothing has worked. Can you help me? Any info you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Note: My phone message no different whatsoever. All the threads have remained the same. The issue is what it is doing to the people that I am messaging.
Best Regards
Rick Mulhern

I have this identical problem. For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad. Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something. Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads. I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time) Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc. There still hasn't been a solution.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I used to be able to download files from the Harddrive of my Sony Handycam, but now it won't let me import them while going through "log and transfer." I have tried to update my settings, but this doesn't seem to work. Any help would be much appreciated

Hard Drive: The Hard Drive is on my camera (Sony Handycam)
Just needed some info on what is going on with your particular system.
Knowing the exact camera model will also assist us.
If this camera is standard AVCHD you should be able to connect with USB to Mac with FCE open and use Log and Transfer without all the fiddling around converting etc.
What FCE does during ingest is convert files to AIC. (Apple Intermediate Codec)
FCE cannot read the individual files in the BDMV folder, that's why all the converting is required when you use that method.
BTW: regards formatting drives/cards/memory on cameras; it is wise to use the actual device to format rather than a computer. This is a prime cause of read/write goof ups with solid state media. This applies to still or video cameras.
Keeping the COMPLETE card/memory structure in tact is vital for successful transfers.

Hi, I just downloaded IOS 8 on my iPhone 4S. Can't restore my settings nor synchronise anymore. Any helpful advice ?

FYI downgrading is not supported by Apple which is why you don't readily see information on how to do so.
If you have indeed done everything in the article mentioned.
Disconnect device, take screen shot on device, and attempt again
- also make sure if you have parallels are disabled while testing.
