Numbers interferes with Quicken download

I just bought iWork for my Intel iMac. When running Quicken, whenever I try to download checking account or credit card data, Numbers seems to commandeer the data, downloading into a spreadsheet, although I want it to download to Quicken. I have to temporarily put Numbers into Trash to get the download properly directed.

Do you mean that when you download, the downloaded file shows a Numbers icon? If so, that just means that someone has told OS X that Numbers should be the default application to open this type of file.
Click on the file icon to select it, then press command-I to Get Info.
Go to the Open With section of the Get info window and use the popup menu there to change the default application for that type of file to Quicken. Click the Change All button to apply this to ALL files with the same extension as the selected file. Note the warning that appears.

I don't want to use NUMBERS with QUICKEN BANKING SOFTWARE

I use quicken for mac banking software. Suddenly, Numbers is default for opening downloaded qfx files from webconnect via bank, even though I reset the default to "open with Quicken" each time this happens. I cannot find a way to change it Quicken support has no clue!!! My Wachovia Bank Tech support has no clue. Mac me proud Mac users! Any ideas?
By the way, when the file opens as a Numbers doc, I get an error as well in the numbers doc that opens, stating that all times have been changed to GMT!!!

Welcome to Apple Discussions
How are you setting Quicken as the default? Many users find that after installing Numbers, OS X sets Numbers as the default program for .qif or .qfx files. All you have to do to fix the problem is to "tell" OS X you want Quicken to open these files. Highlight a .qif document in the Finder, highlight it & choose Get Info from the File menu. In the Get Info box, click the triangle next to "Open With." Click on this drop-down menu & choose Quicken. If Quicken is not a choice, choose "Other" & navigate to the Quicken application. Now click the "Change" button under the text that asks if you want to open all documents like this with Quicken. Repeat with .qfx files.

When I downloaded firefox, it also downloaded McAffee Security Scan Plus. Why? Is this going to interfere with my other anti-virus?

downloaded firefox and also downloaded McAffee Security Scan Plus.
Why? Will it interfere with my other anti-virus

Where did you download Firefox from? It does not come with McAfee Security Scan if you download it from http://www.mozilla.com/ - it has no extra applications included.
Are you sure it was not a plugin that included the McAfee Security Scan, for example the Adobe Flash plugin will by default include it.

Will the antispyware that downloaded with the Firefox upgrade interfere with my CA security suite? I've been told not to intstall multiple security programs.

Will the antispyware that was downloaded with the Firefox upgrade interfere with my CA security program? I've been told not to install multiple security programs?

Alternatively, though we're not sure how it got on your system, if you don't want it installed you should be able to remove it via Add/Remove programs in your Windows XP Control Panel.
From the Microsoft documentation for XP, located here...
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307895
How to remove an installed program
To remove a program that is installed on your computer, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Add or Remove Programs.
2. In the Currently installed programs box, click the program that you want to remove, and then click Remove.
3. If you are prompted to confirm the removal of the program, click Yes.
Some additional observations...
You seem to be running Firefox 3.0, for which security support ended in March of 2010. You may wish to update your Firefox to the newer Firefox 3.6 in order to continue to receive security updates. I believe simply pressing Help in the menu bar of Firefox, and then "Check for Updates" will accomplish this.
Lastly, your Adobe Flash player for Firefox is out of date, and contains a security vulnerability. It can be updated by following the below link and clicking Agree And Install Now and then running the downloaded file.

Bluetooth interferes with WiFi in Yosemite 10.10 (reproducible)

There is a long (40 pages so far) thread about WiFi issues with Yosemite. However, I believe it has become a catchall thread for all kinds of connectivity problems and a growing number of "solutions" address only a few of them.
So I wanted to start a separate thread about a very specific issue I found to be easily reproducible: turning on Bluetooth in Yosemite 10.10 interferes with WiFi, lowering the bandwidth in a measurable way. I have tested this on two different MacBook Pro Retina (mid-2011 and late-2013) and an Apple Airport router.
To test is yourself do the following:
Move away from the WiFi access point so the signal is not at full strength
Turn Bluetooth Off
Visit speedtest.net and run a speed test a handful of times (average the results discarding the outliers, i.e. the fastest and the slowest)
Turn Bluetooth On
Repeat Step 2 and compare results
In my case I see a 30% drop in download speed and about a 50% drop in upload speed. I'm not a hardware/radio engineer but I think it's pretty clear that the WiFi and Bluetooth drivers for the initial release version of Yosemite are causing some kind of interference. This is obviously wrong. Unless there is a programmable parameter that can be tweaked for these drivers, I doubt there is anything we can do about it until Apple releases an update with 10.10.1.
Turning off Bluetooth is an obvious fix for the WiFi issues but it is clearly not useful if you depend on Bluetooth accessories and defeats the purpose of may cool Yosemite features like Handoff.
Is anybody else seeing this in their environment?

I also still see the problem with 10.10.2
I posted these stats in the WiFi problems thread (>150 pages by now) but I'll post it here as well:

When I try to share a Numbers spreadsheet with other Mac users, (via iMessages) it doesn't open on Numbers app but instead on Numbers for iCloud beta, on their browser.

When I try to share a Numbers spreadsheet with other Mac users, (via iMessages) it doesn't open on Numbers app but instead on Numbers for iCloud beta, on their browser. and worse all the letters appear out of format and unreadable.
Is there any option that i'm getting wrong
How can we solve this.
Usualy we use Google drive documents to share some spreadsheets, but we wanted to share the same document with numbers (that's much better) but it doesn't work as easily as in google drive and doesn't even remotely works how it was supposed.

Don't know why those letters wouldn't display properly; maybe something to do with their settings at Safari > Preferences > Advanced > Default Encoding or similar setting in whatever browser they are using. But it's really easy for them to download the document via the "wrench" in the Numbers for iCloud menu. Then they can open it in the Numbers app.
For "real-time" collaboration, I think you all need to be accessing Numbers for iCloud via the browser.

This copy of the Install OS X Mountain Lion application can't be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. Dr Nir Hus

Downloaded latest OS X and installed on my Mac Book Pro (early 2008). No problems.
Then attempted to install on my Mac Mini 2011 and continuously getting the following message:
"This copy of the Install OS X Mountain Lion application can't be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading."
I noticed that I am not the only one...
Anyone with a solution.
So far all I see are various attempts by people, some successful others not.
This should not be a frustrating complicated ordeal!!!

Yup, the safe mode/repair/redownload/install finally solved it - had to do it after midnight as all the 4gig downloads have already trashed my 60gig internet limit for this month, installed REALLY slowly bugt eventually at 0330 i had working Mountatin Lion on my Macbook.
This has to be the most tedious upgrade, Mac OR Windows, I've ever done. Takes me back to inserting 15 floppies for sheer inconvenience, and from the numbers reporting this problem, it's more than an occasional glitch. And for some reason the download always fails if left unattended, even if all the sleep modes, etc, are negated.
3/10 to Apple this time around.

Every time I open Firefox a program that has somehow attached itself to the browser opens and interferes with my searches.

There is a program that has attached itself to my Firefox browser. Every time I open Firefox to search the internet this program is using pop-ups, to the extent that it completely interferes with my searches.

hello Bill851, if you notice signs of malware on your system please try these steps:
# [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] (this will keep your bookmarks and passwords)
# afterwards go to firefox > addons > extensions and in case there are still extensions listed there, disable them.
# finally run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] and [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner] to make sure that adware isn't present in other places of your system as well.

Quick Time interferes with my Macromedia Flash Player

HELP!!!
I downloaded the apple Quick Time and I-tunes player. It interferes with my Macromedia Flash program.
When I go to the Macromedia main page instead of the latest flash player playing the flash files, I get a quick time Q with a ? mark in the middle of it, but no flash files play. I have uninstalled and re-installed flash and quick time, but continue to get the same result. Any Ideas?
Please help.... I cannot see my flash files. I have totally uninstalled quick time and I-tunes. I would like to have them also, but there is a bad conflict between the two.
I am looking for help!! Please!!

This is the answer!!! It works!!! I wanted to share this with you. The two now work together!!!
Let me know if it helps!!
But going through QuickTime Player and choosing the QuickTime Preferences gets you to the same place.
Again, though, you need to select the Browser tab in the QuickTime Settings window, click on the MIME Settings button, and deselect the Flash Media playback under the Miscellaneous file formats section. The File Types affects what QuickTime Player will handle, but you need to change the other setting to affect what the web browser plugin handles.

I have an Acer Aspire 7741. I want to disable the CAPS LOCK ICON. It interferes with my work.

I have an Acer Aspire 7741. I want to disable the CAPS LOCK ICON because it interferes with my work. Microsoft states this is a utility that is on the computer, not something that is controlled by Windows software. Help, please. This is the only computer I use that does this and it's quite annoying at times.

it must already be installed on your system, normally it enables the Fn+F functions and over things like Caps lock. http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Application/LaunchManager/LaunchManager_Dritek_4.0.5_W7x86W7x64_A.zip?acerid=634061190269930459&Step1=NOTEBOOK&Step2=ASPIRE&Step3=ASPIRE%207741&OS=ALL&LC=en&BC=ACER&SC=PA_6

I've lost numbers after trying to download update

When I tried to open numbers after attempting to download update a box came up that said unable to purchase numbers at this time. I then found that the app had disappeared from my iPad along with all my work! Can I get it back?

The App Store is OK in the U.S. as you can see here.
http://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/
Try closing the App Store, and reset the iPad all over again. Then try again.
Closing apps in iOS 7 works like this. Drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

How I would get rid of Firefox if I didn't like it AND just how would I take if off my system AND will it interfere with any other web browser like yahoo ? ALSO where so I go to find these answers ???

If I download Firefox then decide to remove it - will it interfere with my other web browsers like Yahoo - where are these answers????

Firefox is easy to remove see [[uninstalling firefox]]
I imagine many people use multiple browsers, the usual interference is in deciding which one is to be the default browser. You may use firefox without setting it as the default browser.

If I already have CS5, but want to do a free 30 day trial of CS6 will it interfere with my cs5?

If I already have CS5, but want to do a free 30 day trial of CS6 will it interfere with my copy of CS6? Does it download separately?

Separate versions, separat install and licensing. CS6 will do nothing to your existing software and as a matter of fact your CS5 will remain in place even with the full version of CS6 unless you explicitly uninstall it....

I am getting auditory popups that interfere with what I am reading or listening to. How do I stop them?

I will be listening to a local radio station that is streaming or reading something in the news on the Internet and there will suddenly be an auditory broadcast that interferes with what I am doing. They are short snippets, but MOST annoying and I want to stop them. How?

I have downloaded the add-on and the popup blocker was already in place. It is too soon to tell if it works but I will let you know in a few days.
One additional piece of information...I am getting a pop-up (despite the blocker) that asks if I want to download a JScript File from http://tag.admeld.com. I have not asked for this and I have responded to "cancel" but I suspect that this is where the auditory pop-up is coming from. The file is "meld.js"
I believe that this happened once before and despite clicking "cancel" an auditory ad ran while I was listening to something else.
If this is coming from one source, I'd like to block it....Suggestions are welcome.
A later comment... I have not gotten any auditory popups in the last few hours, but I keep getting the above "meld.js" popup. I assume that this is a Java Script program but I have not requested it and would like to know what it is and why it is coming up over and over again.
Please help!
A still later comment - no change despite disabling popups and adding the add-on - I am still getting auditory popups and getting something asking me to download "meld.js"
Is there anyone out there who can help?
