Once firefox 4 beta has been downloaded into my iMac, I couldn't open it, and worst, now I cannot even open neither the old firefox browser nor the new one, none!
I do have an iMac with a Mac OS X Version 10.4.11. Never have any problem before with Firefox browser. Now, I was willing to update the browser to the 4 Beta version. Good. Little did I know that once I finished with the whole downloading process, I was about to get caught into such a mess.
Bottom Line: How can I go back to my ORIGINAL Firefox browser without reading the spineless pop up window telling me yet again 'you cannot use this version of "Firefox" with this OS'. I am not a magician, I'm a regular man trying to stay current with the new versions. Had I known this mess beforehand I would have never bother to even tried the 'new 4 Beta', guys.
Unfortunately I tried that and it didn't work. Thanks for the help though. I tried to uninstall and it said I couldn't because the file is corrupt or something, but I think I finally got it uninstalled and/or deleted or whatever, but now I try to reinstall/download it again from the beginning and I can't. No matter what I do I can not get Firefox working again. No matter how many times I try to redownload it. Any other suggestions?

How do I secure a PDF that has been signed so that it can't be opened in the new Word
Hi all
Hoping someone can help. As the title suggests I need some advice in securely locking a PDF after it has been signed.
I know how to secure a PDF document so that it can't be opened in the new version of the Word 2013.
File > properties > Security and pick password protect
Then open Word and down the bottom left hand corner click 'open other documents'
This then attempts to open the PDF and if secure it will fail to open if unsecured it will open making the content fully editable
However when you sign a document you can't secure it by going file > properties > Security and pick password protect.
Then open Word and down the bottom left hand corner click 'open other documents'
This then opens the PDF and makes the content fully editable but removes the signature
The content is fully editable - how can I lock this????????????????????????????
Thanks in advanceHi Garetch,
You could encrypt the file first, but set the permissions to allow for signing. After that you can sign the encrypted file (you just can't encrypt a signed file). As long as you get the order of operations correct (encrypt first, sign second) you will end up at the same place you are trying to get to.

How do I move all my files from one User Profile (account) into another?
I needed to create a new account and want all of my files accessible in the new one.ok, what you're learning right now is 101 unix, which is good. Unix is a good thing
now: the way unix works, and macos (which uses unix underneath) the files and folders work like a hierarchy.
the start of that tree is /
so, if you were to do:
cd /
(cd means change directory)
it will bring you at the highest branch of the file system.
cd /Users
will bring you to where all the users are.
to see whats in /Users you can use your friend ls command
ls means list files/directories
so:
cd /Users
ls -la
(the -la here means show all (even hidden) and long format (very verbose)) this flag is very optional.
you will see
fred
user2
for example.
if you want to see the desktop of user2 you would change directory to it then list the files.
for example:
cd /Users/user2/Desktop
Note that the files and directory are case sensitive, so, desktop is NOT the same as Desktop, or DESKTOP
ls -la
you should then be able to see everything in users2 desktop
you could have done as well the same thing in smaller steps, for example:
cd /
cd Users
cd user2
cd Desktop
this is the equivalent of cd /Users/user2/Desktop
So, for your file, i don't know where it was, but know that if you log in as user2, it will directly put you in
/Users/user2
which most likely the file you had created from the other user was in /Users/user1
if you copied all the files from /Users/original_user to /Users/secondUser
most likely yes, all your mail, bookmarks etc would be copied over.
so in your case.
sudo chown -R seconduser:staff /Users/secondUser
should work
Remember that if you start a path with the character / it means start from the root of the file system, at the highest top you can ever get.
so
cd /Users/fred
is not the same as
cd Users/fred
unless you were in / already
i know it may be confusing at first but it's actually very logical if you play with it.
to simplify, think of it that / means C:\ on windows
you can't go any higher than C:\ (in a way)
if you're unsure which directory you're currently in, you can always type:
pwd
it will tell you where you are.
for example:
cd /
pwd
this shows /
cd Users
pwd
this now shows /Users
cd /System/Library
pwd will show /System/Library
cd /
cd /Users
cd fred
cd Library
pwd will show /Users/fred/Library
unix can look very scary but it's actually vital and very necessary to do tasks sometimes that would take for ever to do via the windows. This is good learning.
so for the myfile you had created, i can't tell you where it is, at the time you created, if you can do a pwd command you'll know the path,
ls -la (this shows all the files where you are)
if you see myfile in the list
do a pwd
whatever is return, the real location of the file would be:
whatever pwd returned / myfile
I hope that makes sense. -

I want to go back to Version 4.3, I do not like the new version of Pages. this has messed up my whole day!
You should have the old Pages 4.3 in the application folder > iWork.
If you have saved the document (I hope you didn't) you can Export to Pages 09 in the File menu. Hopefully you didn't loose to much. -

Does an adobe reader read the Adobe acrobat document that has been downloaded from a web site
I am having trouble opening anything that has been downloaded into a adobe acrobat document . I am wondering if I am suppose to have an Adobe reader to read it and why is it not being read because it is not a supported file type or because the file was damaged sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded. I am not very computer illiterate and don't understand what I need to be able to get a embroidery designed sent to my computer and be able to open it up.?
Hi Adpdfacct808,
PDF is the document standard that you are trying to read. If you have Acrobat installed then you can open the pdf with Acrobat to read it.
What error do you get when you try to open the document?

My hotmail email account has been hacked into. I've changed my email password and hope this fixes the problem. Will my iMac system software now be infected and if so what should I do about it? Everything appears to be working ok. Is there a free to use software package available on the web, totally secure and reliable, which can scan my iMac for viruses and fix them if any are found.
Unless you have installed anything, you are fine.

Prior to implementing DocuSign, we used to scan manually signed document to a PDF file and then store the PDF file in a HR file share. We would then use Adobe Writer Standard to assign a read/write password to the PDF file. We now use DocuSign to have documents electronically signed and download the DocuSign PDF in our HR folders. However Adobe Acrobat Writer does not allow us to assign a password. It pops up a dialog box saying ""you cannot change security on this document because the document is signed or certified". We want to continue being able to store the PDF in our HR file share with passwords to restrict who can view off the share. Is there a way we can assign a password to the PDF file once it has been downloaded from DocuSign?
Thanks Bernd. We can't assign passwords before signature process starts as people will not be able to open the PDF without knowing the password. I think we will change our process and simply leave the electronically signed PDF in DocuSign and then "print" the PDF to our local file share for internal HR purposes. thanks again.

Question
Firefox 6.0.1 update won't recognize the home page which uses a password access which has been saved into 6.0.1. The security shows permissions for the web site but doesn't recognize that I've been accessing the web page every day since I updated to 6.0.1. Web page trying to access is <http://classic.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?query=zmw:98108.5.99999> This home page worked fine on earlier versions of Firefox and continues with Internet Explorer 9.0.Looks like its been fixed for me, not by 6.0.1 but by - Todd Siechen from http://www.dvdthemepak.com

Todd... I love you xxx
After having a nightmare since first day of version 6.0.0 and still no fix after 6.0.1, even after Apple requested the files... You fixed my problem... Checked for duplicate fonts and found about 5, selected "Resolve Duplicates" and everything great, even with old projects... You should work for Apple!
Check out the 2 posts:

1) The first and biggest culprit we found to be causing problems is with font issues. In order to alleviate this problem, open Font Book and make sure all the Fonts that are turned on have no dots next to them. If they do then select them and select "Resolve Duplicates" from the Edit menu. If you are using a different font manager then use whatever tool is available to make sure no duplicate fonts are loaded. iDVD 6 is very sensitive to this.
Many many many many many many many many many many many many many thanks.

Your UserAgent string in Firefox is messed up, probably by something that you installed. It shows that you have still have Firefox 3.6.17 installed. <br />

type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter <br />
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.'' <br />

Right-click the preferences that are '''bold''', one line at a time, and select '''''Reset'''''. <br />

Hello darkhawk,
Thank you for the recommendation. I somewhat understand what a MS DOS disk is, but I'm not sure how to go about creating one. I've seen where you can use a program, like Rufus, to create a usb one - but I'm leery about using 3rd-party programs (especially ones I'm not familiar with). I've come across a couple of 'how-to' tuts, but they didn't clarify what files (if any) I would need to include on the disk (for my particular situation). Right now I don't have any blank cds, nor any extra flash/thumb drives - wish I did, but hadn't needed these for years. There has only been one other time where I needed to re-install Windows, but that was over 15 years ago - I did it through BIOS, reformatting my drives, and then reinstalled via the Windows XP disk. Windows 8 is an entirely different breed, which has left me feeling a bit stumped, at times. If there was a way I could perform it (successfully), similar to the first time I did it years ago, I'd give it a try - but at the same time, I'm a bit reluctant, because if it doesn't work, then I'm stuck without any internet access to get further help.
Ask and ye shall receive. This should be doable in Windows 7 and Windows 8 on another PC. I recommend using a USB Flash drive like in this tutorial, but I'm sure you could use something else.
If you want, you could also use Hiren's BootCD to make a bootable CD with many options and programs on it (I keep one, just for certain situations) that will allow you to do the same things.

I have an old version of Firefox - Version 3.5.7.
I am trying to update to the current version. As part of the update, the system is first loading all of the intermediate versions.
I started the update 4 hours ago. It is still running. Most of the time, it has been downloading version 3.6.18. I am letting it run.
Is there any other way to get the most recent version?Thank you. That is basically what I did. I gave up on the update and downloaded a fresh version of Firefox.

How to trace planned order data after it has been converted into production
Hi, There,
The planned order has been converted into production order.
However, I need to trace if this planned order is generated by MRP
run or created manually. I can't get any planned order info from
table PLAF. Any input?
Regards,
NancyHi,
Once fully converted, the Planned Order data will not be available in the Table : PLAF.
If it is available, then You can have the details with the Time Stamp and User data from PLAF.
But, the refrence will be available in the Production Order.
You want to make a Track of the Planned Order details and the Quanity, then you need to have/create Z tables so that the data will be availabe.
This is how most of the Organizations keep a track of the Planned order data.
Hope this helps..
Regards,
Siva
