"Roll over to try, click to apply" does nothing

I just did the latest Firefox update - no problems - but once again, after the last 2 or 3 or more updates, the "Roll over to try, click to apply" option to try out the new 'personas" does nothing. I remember when they first came out and I could roll over them and see all the cool personas. I never actually chose to apply one but now, as I said, when I rollover, nothing happens. I'd like to still see what they do. If so, maybe I'll eventually actually apply one. Any idea why it doesn't work?

You need to update your plugins. It is important to keep them updated due to continuing security fixes and improvements in those plug-ins:

Turn off your iPad and put it in recovery mode. Try to restore it via iTunes.

I can't find creative cloud on my desktop and double clicking the app does nothing.

I can't find CC on my desktop, double clicking the app does nothing. Can't reinstall as it tells me that another version is running, and to quit that version. Can't find the version to quit. Help please.

Hi Kyra22,
Can you please try and restart your machine and then check ? If nothing happens , please navigate to Utilities> Adobe installers to find Creative cloud installer or go to Applications > Creative Cloud > Creative Cloud uninstaller and then uninstall the product from there .
once done with the uninstallation ,please browse to Creative.adobe.com and then reinstall the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop app .
Please do let us know if this works fine or if you require any further support from our side.

Reset Security Questions
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
Manage My Apple ID
Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
If all else fails:
Go to: Apple Express Lane;
Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
Then choose iTunes Store;
Then choose Account Management;
Press Continue;
Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click Continue;
Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would like your security/challenge questions reset;
Click Send.
You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
Presently there appears to be problems on Apple's end, so it may be quite some time before they respond.
Another user had success doing the following:
I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" > tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select "done", in the upper right corner
sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the security questions.
At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security questions.
It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
Good Luck friends!

Can't open email stationery. The stationery tab is there, but clicking on it does nothing.

When I am writing email, the stationery won't open. The tab is there, but clicking on it does nothing.

Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, please '''Tag''' this thread as being for Thunderbird in the right-hand column of this page. This question currently is in the Firefox queue for answers.

After updating to v. 24.0 (and restarting) ALL add-ons (regardless whether they work or not) are marked "(disabled)", and clicking Enable button does nothing

After updating to v. 24.0 (and restarting, several times) ALL add-ons (regardless whether they work or not) are marked "(disabled)". I tried clicking "Enable" button for each add-on and nothing happened. There is only one add-on which is marked as incompatible with this version (but it was also incompatible with previous version, and so marked).
Clicking "Update Add-ons", gives a short list of add-ons but "Install Updates" button is pale and doesn't work. I can only sort list by name or last update.
Also, I disabled Ask Toolbar and that went well. When I click "Enable" button (button works ONLY for this add-on) it takes forever to get note: “Ask Toolbar will be enabled after you restart Firefox”, I used to get this info in seconds time before this update. (I do not really want Ask Toolbar, I just used it to see whether if I disable and then enable an add-on might do the trick.)
Bottom line – I can not tell if add-on works (i.e. if it is enabled or disabled) unless I try using it.
Even when I posted this question and installed Troubleshooter, it's also marked as "(disabled)"

You're welcome
Are this screenshots from an extension window because the built-in about:addons page looks different?

In FF29, clicking on tabs does nothing

After installing FF29 strange things had changed.
1. The yellow button in the upper left corner, used instead of the menubar, had disappeared.
2. The tabbar cannot me moved to below the bookmarks bar.
3. The chrome of all tabs is identical and borders are hardly to see.
4. MOST OF ALL: clicking on tabs have no effect at all.
Does someone know an answer on at least item 4??

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Double clicking .jar file does nothing!

Hello i am wondering, how to run a .jar file by double clicking it?
After creating the jar file and by typing javaw.exe -jar ledger.jar in command prompt in windows 7 works fine for my swing application.
I created a .bat file which has javaw.exe -jar ledger.jar also works fine.
But when i double clicking the ledger.jar is not working, not giving any error, not even doing anything.
I tried associating .jar file with java or javaw then also nothing happens.
My questions are:
1) What i have to do to execute the .jar file by double clicking it?
2) Why java is not so user friendly to the end users especially in Desktop Applications?
Thanks in advance.
Note: OS - Windows 7 64 bit
JRE - 32 bit in Program files (x86) folder version 7

Your other question, please blame Microsoft for not making file associations easier to manage.Too easy. You can blame MS all you want; it is the task of the Java runtime installer to properly setup the file associations - OR the administrator which bypasses the runtime installation with his own scripts. i have installed the runtime many times including on Windows 7 and it always does it properly. I have no clue how people end up with half-finished installations.

Unified Accounts only lets me read one acount although it shows the email of the other account to click on but clicking on it does nothing nor marks it read..

I have two accounts unified and both email address go to the unified account folder, but the one doesn't let me click on it to open it. If I double click it it opens but never marks it as read. The only way to mark these read is to go to that separate account and read it there.

Are you sure that these Apps were not purchased using another Apple ID...
If so, and you only have one ID, then Contact Customer Service...

If I got one of the free books off of Itunes, how do I read it? I double click and it does nothing. Is it only to hook up to Iphones or Ipads?

I got one of the free books of Itunes and I'm wondering how I read it. I double click and nothing happens. Is it only for Ipads and Iphones??

If you have one of the public-domain books provided by Project Gutenberg (these are books published many years ago and which have therefore fallen out of copyright, such as the Dickens and Jane Austin books), you should be able to open it using Calibre:
http://calibre-ebook.com/
or one of the other applications that can open ePub format. Launch the app and point it to the book file, which will be in your iTunes folder, in iTunes Music (Media) -> Books.

Double-clicking Home button does nothing

And yes, I tried a restore. It should take me to favorites; that's what I chose in Settings/General. Any ideas?

Replying to my own question. Here's what I've discovered. If 'Favorites' is the last thing you viewed (under the 'Phone' icon), then double-clicking the Home button will do nothing. If, on the other hand, 'Contacts' is the last thing you've viewed under 'Phone', then double-clicking the Home button will take you to favorites.
Still, a piece of iphone behavior that seems buggy to me.

Clicking itunes icon does nothing

yesterday my itunes worked, today I click on the icon and nothing happens. I have done nothing to my computer since yesterday to make a difference in itunes ability to run????
Help!

This may not help, but the first thing I'd suggest is to get a good antispyware checker and give it a go at your system. Some recent spyware has been reported by other users to shut down iTunes or prevents it from launching. From user reports, Ewido seems to be the best at catching it. You can download a free version of Ewido here.

Re Article HT1473 Windows XP. Itunes open, CD inserted. Flag pop up shows Drive and I can identify MP3 file. When I click open, why does nothing happen?

Every page hangs with Firefox 8, there is often no exit, and if there is, clicking on it does nothing. I have to use cntrl, alt, delete to shut down every single time I use Firefox 8.

I couldn't even open Firefox for hours, then realized there was an update to 8. Once updated, the horrors began. I can't exit a single page with Firefox 8. Every page hangs. I have used cntrl, alt, delete like never before. I disabled the container.exe plug in for Firefox, and still have problems. There is no menu bar, there is often not even an exit button, but when there is, it doesn't work. These problems must be fixed, or I'll never use Firefox again.

See "Hang at exit":

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
