On bbc.co.uk website I am unable to set my local / postcode, although I used to be able to do this and can with other web browsers. Am unsure how to re set this so it works.

I normally use Firefox as my preferred browser, and have bbc.co.uk as one of my home pages. I used to be able to set my location 'portsmouth' on that web page top receive local news. However, I can no longer do that (Ithink i cleared cache and browsing history recently) and since then it cannot set my location.
Other web bro0wsers are working fine with this, but I wold rather use Firefox.
What vsetting do I need to change?

I am using MAC OSx 10.5.8 (9L31a) as my operation system.  The TV says "No signal.  Check connected device's power, cable connection and source selection."  Seems to me that that goes in hand with what the Samsung tech said about the Mac needing to be forces to use the external display.  But how do I do that?

  • When I navigate web with Firefox my Thinkpad trackpoint center button is not working. With other web browsers it works well. Where is the problem in firefox, how to enable TrackPoint center button?

    I have exactly the same settings in Options (in both computers)
    for history, these 2 add-ons and all other stuff in Options. The only difference is that on 1 pc sessions can be saved and closed tabs can be reopened, on other main pc they stopped to work. + no any other add-on that does similar things works on this pc.
    It is also interesting that I can reopen closed visited sites from History Panel, but not by pressing the Button. For now I only manually bookmark links to a temporary folder.
    Recently (some 2 month ago) I pressed x and Firefox closed all tabs without saving them without displaying save & quit pop up.
    so I changed 4 settings in about.config
    browser.tabs.warn on close true
    browser.warn on quit true
    browser.warn on restart true
    browser.show.quit warning true
    but the problem with sessions appeared only 1 week ago.
    So I guess the problem is not with the History settings or other settings. Seems that something responsible for button or for storing info about tabs/sessions got corrupted. :(

  • I have created a resume on Word and every time I try to send it to myself through Gmail, the format changes. This happens with other documents as well. How do I fix this?

  • I lost my zoom with 5 and can't get it back on 4; How do I fix this.

    Firefox did an automatic downgrade to 5 which is unusably bad. I have corrected this problem by changing the update options and rolling back to 4 but my web pages will no longer zoom either from the view menu or from the mouse wheel or from the control-plus key combination. I seems 5 did something horrible to my profile which has a whole lot of stuff I don't want to lose. Is there something I can change to regain the zoom function?

    When I drag it down to the dock, none of the other dock icons move out of the way to let me add it (on the left side).
    The Home icon represents a folder, and folders go to the right side of the Dock divider. Try dragging it there instead.

  • Pages won't open and same with all the previous documents. How do I fix this?

    When I went to click on Pages in the dock it created a barely visible circle around it and wouldn't open.  I took it off the dock and afterwards could not get it back on. None of the documents will open and they all claim that it could not be opened because the file isn't in the correct format.  I'm not sure what to do to get it to work. Any suggestions?

    KR,
    Exit all Apps and Restart Computer.
    With only Pages app running, if still Pages still won't work, Create a new User Account and see if the new account has the same problem.
    If new account works ok, problem is most likely in .plist user files of the original account. If that's the case, we'll help you locate and delete them.
    Also, Using Disk Utility, check HD and Repair Permissions. Try again.
    Now, if things still don't work, it's time to consider a reinstall.

  • Ever since the last update I don't have my old bookmarks, can't add new ones and can't import my HTML file. How do I fix this?

    ever since the last firefox update I don't have my old bookmarks, can't add new ones and can't add my HTML file of my bookmarks

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • HT5622 Is it possible for someone to use my details to access my iMessage and FaceTime without my permission? If so, how do I prevent this?

    I have recently given my old iPhone 4s away as I now have an iPhone 5s.
    I reset and erased the old phone but I'm still cautious as to whether or not my information for iMessage and FaceTime can be accessed without my permission.
    Please advise.
    Luke.

    If you did Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings on your old iPhone before disposing of it (as you should have), then your old iPhone will not allow anyone else to access FaceTime or iMessage from your account -- unless the new person knows your Apple ID and password.

  • My Firefox won't load any websites, but other web browsers will. I have tried following the proxy help to fix this, with no luck. What can I do next?

    Any website I try to visit using Firefox won't load, it just keeps saying that it is unable to connect. I tried other web browsers, and they work no problem. I tried following the proxy steps provided, but did not help.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.
    See [[Server not found]] and [[Firewalls]] and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls
    If you use a Firefox 4 beta release then you should create a new profile exclusively for the 4.0 beta version and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

  • Since updating to OS X Yosemite, I am unable to save files into another computer or server. I have to save it on my desktop and then drag it into the server. How do i correct this?

    Since updating to OS X Yosemite, I am unable to save files into another computer or server. I have to save it on my desktop and then drag it into the server. How do i correct this?

    Ok this worked to solve the error.
    Use cmd prompt in windows 7 or 8 and run as admin:
    sc config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/nsi
    sc config mrxsmb20 start= disabled
    No need for all that power shell nonsense as shown elsewhere for windows 8.
    That's it. Also force smb2 disabling on the apple side for good measure.
    With the above I was able to network mavericks and windows 8.1 pro flawlessly. He issues I had before where I could not read video, ISO and audio files (but could open documents and pictures from the windows machine connected to an apple network share folder went away.

  • I lost my Visual Voicemail when upgrading to iphone 5. New phone was set up from itunes backup of iphone4 but my Mac tells me there is an iCloud back up of my phone prior to this date. Will my Vis Voicemail be on this and can I get it on my new phone?

    I lost my Visual Voicemail when upgrading to iphone 5. New phone was set up from itunes backup of iphone4 but my Mac tells me there is an iCloud back up of my phone prior to this date. Will my Vis Voicemail be on this and can I get it on my new phone?

    I see.  Apple's documentation on what is included in the iCloud backup doesn't explicitly say that it contains voicemails, but that doesn't mean it does not.  You would just have to try restoring the backup to find out. 
    To restore to your iCoud backup you have to start by erasing the phone.  Go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings.  Then go through the setup screens on the phone and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud backup.  You will then sign into your iCloud account, accept the terms and conditions, then choose the backup you wish to restore from.  To see an older backup, you may need to tap "Show older backups" (see image below).  Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this may take some time to finish.
    If this does not recover your voicemails, you can check to see if you have an older iTunes backup that may contain them.  Available backups are shown in iTunes Preferences>Devices on the Backups list.
    If all else fails, you could try contacting your carrier.  Voicemail is a carrier feature and they may have an archive you could access.

  • I have a mobleme account and an existing iweb website. I would like to create a second website with a registered domain name. How do I do this?

    I have a mobleme account and an existing iweb website. I would like to create a second website with a registered domain name. How do I do this?

    All you need to do is create your second site in iWeb, move it to the top of lhe list of sites in the left hand pane and publish to your MobileMe account. You must make sure the second site has a different name from the first.
    Then setup domain name forwarding to the second site following Apple's instructions here: iWeb: Using your own domain name. You will need to setup forwarding at your domain name provider also. 
    The key is that the second site (with the domain name) must the top top size in iWeb.
    Note:  with MobileMe scheduled to be discontinued on June 30, 2012, you might begin looking into obtaining another host.  When you do you'll find that both sites will need to have a domain name. 
    When the time comes take a look at HostExcellence.com.  I've had excellent results with it. They have a couple of packages that offer free domain names.  And most important they have outstanding 24/7, ear-to-ear customer support.
